Chapter 1240: Battle Of Creation

The familiar call was similar to the hand that had rummaged through his body in the past and it was emerging from a massive vortex from which a growing purple road was emerging.

In front of the road and defending it was one of the most intense battles in the ongoing conflict.

The reason for it was that while the forces of Calamity and thus unknown forces of ice which Ascendant Sun Dilos decided to call Scorpion men were battling against each other, the two forces combined were attacking this last slice, and among the three combatants here, their numbers were the least, but the power that they wielded was amazing.

For a moment even the call from the vortex or the massive and intense Aura of Ascendancy he was sensing from that road, and the weird almost tantalizing allure of the spreading purple glow that was covering it, as he focused on the power being wielded by the last party. Although this was a battle of giants, this last party which resembled men forged from burning gold appeared incredibly diminutive even though they were thousands of feet tall. The smallest Calamity gods had tentacles that could stretch for tens of thousands of feet and those creatures made from silver and blue ice had heights that were measured in miles, they could rip minor Calamity gods apart as if they were picking apart stuffed dolls.

These golden giants had serpents circling their bodies and some of them had several of these serpents that were spewing balls of golden flames from their mouths. These flames at a glance did not appear to be that powerful, but they sped through the air and anything they touched, they simply chewed through until they ran out of energy.

Something like this although dangerous should not be that impactful, but that was considering only one golden giant alone, however, this picture changed when you realized there were two billion golden giants on this road in a battle formation.

When all their serpents released flames from their maws, it was as if a sea of golden flame was rising from the earth to the sky, traveling as fast as the speed of light and when they met obstruction at the front, they simply melted through miles of bodies, be they Calamity or the silver creatures.

Due to the fact that they were surrounded on three sides, the serpents had to alternate their firing path to cover all three areas around, and from the Aural signatures that Ascendant Sun Dilos could glean from these serpents, their energies were a long way from running out.

However, this was not what drew his attention the most from these golden giants, the serpents were simply one of their powers, and no matter how powerful it was, against the endless tides of bodies rolling in, it could not hold back the attackers, perhaps if they were fighting Calamity gods alone, the serpents could have held them at bay, but the other silver forces could also release firepower of their own, and Ascendant Sun Trelmol had just perished underneath that barrage.

With the same intensity that was unleashed to slaughter an Ascendant Sun, countless silver bolts pierced through space, and although the golden sea of flames melted a portion of it, enough went through that should have devastated the ranks of these golden giants, but a mysterious force field that blanketed their entire formation would always arise to shield against the bolts.

With Ascendant Sun Dilos's understanding of energy manipulation, he could see that this force field was being emitted from the bodies of every golden giant, and they had found a way to link that power together across their entire number, strengthening this field to the extent that it could block blows that had shredded an Ascendant Sun to death.

The golden giants were not depending on their force field to fight back, as Dilos could not be sure what he was looking at but it seemed as if these golden giants were crushing something green in their palms, and for a wild moment he thought they resembled grass, but that could surely not be the case because the effects of whatever they were unleashing were extremely compelling.

The golden flames could disrupt the battlefield, but what truly kept the golden giants in the fight was the strange and unexpected phenomenon and energy they could unleash.

All sorts of elemental energies appeared out of thin air, in combinations that should make no sense but somehow were able to work in harmony to disrupt the flow of their attackers.

A charging Calamity god would suddenly find its flailing tentacles encased in ice and its ten thousand mouths filled with gleaning green apples that were crushed under the astonished gaze of the god would turn out to be a potent poison that would melt the fallen gods from the inside out.

Mazes made from lightning and darkness hundreds of miles in diameter appear out of thin air around the charging armies, confusing them, and funneling them into choke points where the golden fires could eliminate them in batches...

Phantoms of all shapes and sizes appeared around the field of battle that drew the firepower of the attackers, confusing and sending them on wild goose chase...

Reality transformed around the battlefield, and these were not phantoms but real changes, like massive walls miles high, cities made from green fire, and most prevalent in this madness of endless creation were weapons of war.

Swords thousands of feet long that seemed to have a life of their own fell on the shrieking armies of Calamity and the hissing silver scorpion men. One of which could not cause much damage, but there were an unending number of these weapons appearing out of nowhere.

What Ascendant Sun Dilos did not know was that what he was observing was just the tip of the iceberg when it came to the creation powers being unleashed by the golden giants, championed by the godchild, and given direction by Lost, the true battle was being waged inside the bodies of these creatures.

Lost had taken a page out of Rowan's book when he was reborn in this world and realized that they could not unleash enough firepower to decimate the endless horde of enemies heading their way, but if they could find ways to hamper them from within, they would win this fight because their jobs were not to destroy the armies here, it was to buy time for the road to be completed so that the true body of Rowan could enter this realm.

Inside the bodies of their enemies, tiny spells and puppets were being created in their trillions, and their jobs were simply to cause minor changes in the bodies they inhabited, be it blinding their host for a moment or even causing them to shiver or spasm.

In this battle, Lost could perfectly coordinate all the billions of these golden giants making sure that when an opportunity worse due to those distractions created inside the bodies of their enemies, they were there to take advantage of it.

This fight had been ongoing for weeks at this point, the bridge was halfway complete, and Lost could slowly feel the tide of battle shifting in their favor.

For Ascendant Sun Dilos, it was almost too much, the chaos of what was happening, and yet the golden giants all seemed to be in sync, and their motions were smooth as silver, as they unleashed all forms of creation unto the field, and for a while the smallest party was holding back and endless tides of bodies.

Yet even the blind could see they could not hold on for long.
