YM778.TV Chapter 489
A tall man wearing a white and purple costume was crossing his arms and commenting on the show occurring a distance away from him . He looked relaxed as he spectated the fight between the numerous undead and the awakened white specters . This man was none other than Arthur’s brother, the Joker .
Just next to the Joker was a youth clad in a jet black armor, he was silently gazing at the bloody fight while letting out a sigh .
"If you taught your disciple properly, none of this would have happened . "
Hearing this, the Joker frowned and retorted
"How is this my problem? I’m not the one who has an inflated ego and thinks they’re superior just because they became an Exalted God . Tsk tsk! Though, if I knew she would turn out like this, I wouldn’t have trained her . "
"Well, what’s done is done . Let’s see how it will proceed... if things go out of order, be ready to rescue Arthur but get rid of that ARK . "
The Joker shrugged his shoulders and replied
"I know I know, you don’t have to nag all day long . "
"Ohohoho ain’t this a surprise . "
An old voice interrupted their conversation, it was soon followed by two figures which appeared from the void and stood before the two brothers . One was a thin and pale-skinned old man wearing a black robe and the other was a young woman with jet black hair and cold air emanating from her body, more precisely, her Dantian .
Seeing the two guests, the Joker laughed and said
"Lookie here, it’s the dumb fucker!"
Leiu maintained his silence but he was giving an unfriendly look to Death, who was smiling back at the two of them .
"Is that how you’re supposed to be talking to an entity that could end your life?"
"Hahahahahaha I’d like to see you try!"
The Joker held his deck of cards and walked closer to the short elderly . Death didn’t back off as he started emitting an archaic and withered aura, however, their exchange was short-lived as Anastassia intervened .
"Master, this isn’t why we’re here . "
Death gazed back at the smiling Joker for a few more seconds before letting out a cough and backing out while glancing at Leiu, who was giving him a truly chilling glare .
"Thoroughly think about what you’ll do next because I don’t give second chances . "-Leiu
Hearing this, the old man chuckled and replied:
"Don’t worry, I’m not going to interfere, I just came here because my disciple begged me to come here . "
He turned to look at the massive undead army and commented:
"As this rate, I don’t doubt the win of your friend, however, there are a lot of prying eyes and they’re all waiting for the perfect moment to show themselves . "

*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
As if things couldn’t get worse, a series of long explosions were heard by the busy Katrina, who was finally gaining the upper hand against the two mythical beings . Those explosions originated from the residential area of the clan and the moment she turned her head, she saw a truly shocking sight .
At first, it was a powerful tremor followed by countless cracks that split the ground and swallowed many of the houses . However, this was but the beginning, it was like there was a humongous beast devouring the whole area as it started sinking underground . Even the tall and majestic pagodas weren’t spared and started slowly crumbling .
Katrina tried to fly there to stop it to be stopped yet again but not by Radolf and Midolf . The unsettling sky was covered by countless Dark Arrows which all descended upon the Matriarch, each one stronger than the last .
In retaliation, Katrina raised her hand and clutched the air and pulled it, diverting the directions of the incoming arrows and even shattering a few in the process .
Just as the arrows were easily deflected, a golden beam flew straight at her head, intending to finish her . Just like earlier, she made use of her racial flames to block the golden slash which wasn’t strong enough to cause her any worry .
Arthur, who has been throwing long-ranged attacks, retreated a few hundred meters then raised Makaze, intending to unleash the first wave of [Thousand Waves] .
As for Katrina, she grew annoyed so she pointed her index at Arthur and fired bullet-like projectiles which were covered in illusory white flames .
Just as she counterattacked, an enormous tornado made of Midolf’s winds and Radolf’s blood magic spun around the Matriarch, distracting her . A rotten hand that was half the size of the double-headed lizard sprung from beneath Katrina and clutched her body, momentarily immobilizing her .
Unfortunately, Katrina wasn’t playing around as both the rotten hand and the tornado was dispersed two seconds later . All she did was unleash the aura of the Exalted Aura, which was way superior to the duo’s combined skills .
The projectile she threw at Arthur’ wasn’t intimidating but it had a terrifying amount of concentrated energy and was able to heavily injure Arthur if not kill him .
Just as it was about hit him, a strange jet black cube appeared from nothingness and trapped him inside, protecting him from any exterior attacks . In addition to the cube, the ground started moving by itself and formed a dome around the cube . Last but not least, a wall of thick flames blocked the flying projectile, stopping its flight for a few seconds before crumbling .
This was the handy-work of the Quad-Spirit, which finally showed itself and started retaliation against the Matriarch . Though it may not be as strong as Arthur, it is still powerful enough to threaten Overgods .

"We pray that you grant us your acceptance!"
The oldest of the monks said those words and the other repeated it while closing their eyes and holding the golden rope-like object in their hands . This artifact was emitting more and more golden light, becoming more noticeable even from afar . Furthermore, a terrifying blood-red gate started appearing above them, it was covered in dried blood in all sides and thick black chains were wrapped around it, stopping it from opening .
A chilling and savage aura was seeping through the small gaps in the gates but it wasn’t threatening, it only indicated that whatever was behind this gate was a monstrosity, something that shouldn’t exist .
"Amitabha! We seek the path of enlightenment and purify whatever evil enters our world!"
Slowly but surely, the chains wrapped around the gates started loosening and the dried blood was becoming fresh and disgusting . The smell was nauseating and the savage aura lingering around the gate was mentally damaging .
If you look closely, you’ll see that there are exactly seven chains sealing the closed-shut red gate . All seven were loosened by they were still acting as a seal and it falls on the senior monks to temporarily snap the chains .
"A Mi Tuo Fo! Our faith is the price, our heart is the path! Break the first Heaven!"
Just as the oldest monk finished his prayer, one of the chains started wriggling before it snapped in half and fell down . As that happened, the closed gate opened by a bit, causing a suffocating heat to come out from within and spread into the sky, however, it was quickly absorbed by the golden rope the monks were tightly holding .

The projectile thrown by Katrina only managed to destroy the flame barrier and the dome, as for the black cube, it was still unscathed . Arthur, who was inside, raised Makaze and swung it down, splitting the cube in two and turning the sky jet black . A malevolent energy revolved around the dark blade before it was unleashed as a strike targeting the Matriarch .
Unlike her previous actions, she took this attack quite seriously as she flew straight at the incoming black arc and clashed with it with her bare hands .
She was trying to use brute force to break it but it was useless as Dark Magic seeped into her body and caused her to let out a painful groan . Unfortunately, the Dark Magic was quickly expelled out of her body and the first wave was successfully blocked . Arthur wasn’t a person sit around and watch after he unleashed an attack, in fact, the moment he finished the first wave, he waved Makaze five more times, sending creepy looking black skulls flying at the silver-haired woman .
Furthermore, dozens of detonators followed the flying skulls and once they were close enough to her, they all exploded .
Sadly, the woman’s defense was unbreakable by such attacks and her white flames were able to deflect almost everything .
It was then that Radolf and Midolf made their move, each attacking from one side . The lizard changed his form and became a youth, as for Midolf, he transformed into an invisible figure that merged with the wind .
Using his red halberd, Radolf stabbed Katrina while Midolf latched himself into Arthur, greatly boosting his movement speed . In addition to the mythical being’s support, Arthur used a Space and Lightning Talisman, further increasing his Agility .
Green Lightning covered him for a split second before it was replaced by black flames that were conjured by activating [Eternium] . As for the final touch, it was [Griffin’s Bloody Switch] which converted his Wisdom and Intelligence to Agility for some time .
Arthur knew that despite the power of [Thousand Waves], he’ll have to unleash the latter waves and she’ll definitely not sit and watch as he starts casting them . So, the only way is to rely on pure, unmatched speed .
Though she may be an Exalted God, there’s no way she can’t rival his Agility . One has to know that even the reincarnator, Losha, highly praised him for his speed .
