Chapter 785: Finally, Out of the Damned Barriers

“…I actually feel a little bad for them, not gonna lie.”

“Same.” 

“We haven’t even done anything yet they already have casualties.”

“Even their True Leader is having a difficult time breaking the current barrier.” 

“This…they should retreat after this right? I mean, they were already reduced to an embarrassing state by mere barriers. They shouldn’t have the nerve to continue anymore.”

“Naive. As if it’s that easy. Instead of retreating, they might become even crazier due to this humiliation.”

“Even then, retreating now is a little too late. They’re trapped. Look behind them. The barriers that they destroyed fixed themselves. If they want to leave, they have to spend just as much time as they did to destroy the barriers…again. They’re essentially trapped between a rock and hard place.” 

“Oh, these poor guys…”

Indeed it was pitiful. The poor bastards were being bullied by barriers. 

It has been a entire day since the forces of The Exiles arrived at the sect. Their bravado and morale had been stripped clean at this point, eroded by the numerous layers of barriers barring their path to conquest. 

“How many barriers did he place anyway?” Paolo asked, squinting as he stared at the struggling troops of enemies trying to destroy the barriers. 

“Thirty-three.” Julia answered casually, causing the other War Gods to look at her. “Young Lord installed a 33-layered Barrier Seal around the sect that can mutually reinforce each other. I was present when he created them.” 

“Damn.” Theo muttered, “He does not mess around. But didn’t he say that he will let us handle this? What’s up with this now?” 

“I won’t say that he’s interfering, really.” Henry stated, “All he did was to install protective barriers which is his responsibility in the first place, he isn’t actually participating right now. He’s over there, by the Devil Emperor’s Pagoda, enjoying an afternoon tea while reading a book.” 

“Right.” Julia nodded, “Besides, that seal had been there for quite sometime already. He created them the moment the sect got infiltrated by some gossipers. That’s around the time when he initially announced the closing of our borders and before he entered the Celestial Ascension Platform. He could’ve easily improved those seals but he didn’t because he made a promise to us.” 

“Ah, I see.” Paolo nodded. “So that’s the case. Still, though, would they be fine? I mean, I think they can breakthrough 33 layers, but what if what remained of their army are only scraps?” 

“Then all the best for us.” Levi stated with a snort. “The weaker they are, the easier our jobs will be and the lesser casualties we will have. Remember, the goal isn’t to have a heated and exciting battle, its to prevent them from freeing the Devil Emperor.” 

“Right.” Paolo nodded, “I got it…but I still feel a little bad for them.”

The other War Gods didn’t say anything but they too shared the same sentiments, they do feel a little bad for the opposing army. The barriers were perversely tough, the Allfather was so close to going all out in order to destroy them, in fact he can’t even shatter them anymore with one hit. On top of this, he also needed to be careful now since the barriers can reflect the force of his attacks back at them. 

At this point, some disciples are openly gloating at the enemy army. They could still feel the bravado and confidence they were exuding before but now, they were like scared little chicks that can only hide behind their mother hen. 

At the same time, their faith towards their Young Lord Raven increased greatly. Of course, who else aside from him can do something like this? They should’ve already known that with Young Lord here, their victory is certain. 

Currently, the Allfather held nothing but pure hatred and anger in his heart. It was evident with how much he glared at the barriers in front of him. 

He was aware that they were trapped. He himself noticed it a little too late, by the time he noticed it, he was already facing the 20th barrier, meaning that there were 19 barriers behind them, preventing them from leaving this place to re-organize. 

At this point, there was nothing he could do to salvage this situation. He knew that the moment they decided to leave, they will never be able to pull-off any invasion ever again. Don’t underestimate the instincts of Divine Knights, more often than not, they are correct. 

Allfather was incensed to think that he got played like this. Inwardly, he repeated cursed whoever thought of this devious and shameless plan. How could there be such a dishonest person? Who the hell sets-up this many barriers to protect a sect? Aren’t they a little too eager? 

What’s worse is that, even if he whined here all day long, he knew that it will just be a waste of time. His energy will be spent more wisely if he continued breaking down the remaining barriers. 

Currently, he’s facing the 31st barrier, so there’s only two left after this. What made his expression very dark is the fact that his forces are already down by a fourth due to the rebound caused by his own attacks being reflected by the barriers. 

The Allfather isn’t one to defend his useless pawns but he had to right now since without them, he can’t achieve his goal. He needed his pawns to buy time for him. He knew that as long as he can manage to get through this hateful barriers, he can directly go to the pagoda and free the Devil Emperor. 

He was confident that the other Divine Knights wouldn’t be able to stop him. After all, he has a trump card to deal with them.

*Bang!* 

31st barrier, destroyed. The Allfather stomped forward again with face full of killing intent. Once again, he saw the familiar sheen of a barrier. He didn’t even waste time with words and directly attacked it. 

*Bang!*

The Allfather is going all out now. He covered him and his army with a barrier that could protect them from the rebound. Unfortunately, the strength he used wasn’t enough to shatter the 32nd barrier so he has to do it again. 

*Crack!* *Boom!*

32nd barrier shattered. The rebound occurred, the barrier protecting the demon army crack under the pressure. Some shockwaves from the blow managed to seep in, causing some of his army to be injured. 

The Allfather gnashed his teeth and continued moving forward. He of course didn’t miss the reformation of the barriers behind them. He groaned as he saw another barrier in front of him. This one was golden. 

At this point, the Allfather used everything in his power to shatter that barrier in one go. His attack, backed by the power of a genuine Divine Knight, shook the entire sect. Unfortunately, it didn’t work. The barrier remained intact, which caused the Allfather’s pupils to constrict. 

He couldn’t believe what he’s seeing right now. The barrier was intact even after receiving his all-out strike. It didn’t even leave a scratch on the surface. 

The Allfather bit his lips. He muttered: “I don’t believe I can’t shatter you.”

He took out a treasure from his spatial ring, a pair of knuckle-dusters appeared. He wore them and summoned his strength once more. 

*Boom!*

The Allfather wad gobsmacked. Even with the assistance of his personal artifact, it only left a small hole on the barrier. The hole wasn’t big enough for them to fit, and its actually repairing itself. The Allfather didn’t bother thinking too much anymore. 

Instead, he used this chance to widen the gap. The small hole allowed him to see the massive army beneath them. This was the final barrier, he knew it. He was so close so he couldn’t afford to waste time. 

He summoned his strength once more and threw another all-out strike at the barrier. This time, it shattered. Finally, after a day and half of constantly breaking barriers, he managed to do it. 

The Allfather almost cheered out of sheer excitement he felt. Finally, the damn barriers are down. Now he can achieve his goals. And to his surprise, the 33rd barrier’s destruction didn’t have any rebound effect. 

He faced his men and coldly said: “All the barriers are down. Go and kill them all!” 

Hearing that caused the army to feel energized again. They summoned their weapons and roared. They began plunging down to meet their enemies. 

The Sect’s forces are ready as well. In fact, they’re even one step ahead of them. The first round of cannon fire came from the sect’s side, targeting the artillery of the enemies.

Disciples, met disciples. 

Formations, met formations. 

War gods the Demonic Figures. 

Elders vs. Elders. 

It didn’t take long before the large-scale war occurred.

However, the Allfather had little to no interest on staying back to watch as these people killed each other. He was here for one thing and one thing alone. 

“As expected, you three will be here to stop me.” The Allfather snorted as he saw the Grand Elder Zeus, the Sect Master Chronos, and Sect Guardian Gaia standing in front of him.
