Chapter 1364 Taking A Beating.
While they aren't concerned about Agrivo839,371,456A choices of divine abilities, they are concerned about something else.
The Observer couldn't help but voice out this concern. "What about the plane? Something has to be done or it will impede the supreme alliance's plans for it."
"That's true. It is taking too much damage. They might destroy it at this rate." The Mechanical Emperor agreed. "I will issue a final mission to storm the divine plane after their fight. We will use that to end the rite of passage early on."
It is a good thing that the quality of this set of supreme beasts is high. But it is not good for the plane. The plane is taking a beating far more than usual.
Most of the supreme beasts are exceptional for Sovereigns. But some of them have imbibed too much life essence which has brought their stats well above the Sovereign level. They can't harm the law matrix and the boundary of the plane too much, but they are trashing the plane.
The plane is not only in danger of destruction yet. However, the damage to it will also hamper the exploitation plans of the supreme alliance for it. So the mechanical emperor decided to intervene and end the rite of passage earlier than usual.
The Observer chuckled and said, "I just hope that there will be enough of them alive after this or the mission to storm the divine plane will fail."
"A failure is good enough at this point. They have gone above and beyond what I wanted of them. It will be a pity that the Celestials will survive if they fail but I will end the rite of passage regardless of victory or defeat."
There's another solution to ensure that the final war with the gods will pass which is to stop this fight early. But he is not going to do that. This fight will end in only two ways, either the Shadow of Despair falls or his enemies surrender.
The Mechanical Emperor didn't change his mind as the frequency at which he saved the Supreme beast increased.
-----The Divine Plane.
It is a pity that the Celestials don't know that the Calamity going on in the plane might lead to their freedom. If they knew, they would probably be elated as the Shadow of Despair eliminated more and more supreme beasts. They would probably cheer him on and hope that the Supreme beasts continue to fight him.
But they don't know. They were instead frightened by the display of power so they are in no mood to cheer. They are not happy at all right now.
The sight of the Shadow of Despair and the other strong supreme beasts displaying their power makes the Celestials chilled to their non-existent bones. They are gnashing their divine teeth and feeling trepidations in their divine souls.
They are afraid. And why not? What they are seeing shows that they can't threaten the supreme beasts in the main plane at all. The Supreme beasts will be able to eliminate all their churches and the gods won't be able to stop it.
What's worse is that if the supreme beasts turn their aggression to them in the divine plane, they will be eliminated completely. Their hopes for freedom were snuffed with each punch that shook the main plane. So it was not only the plane that was taking a beating, their current mental well-being and future prospects were also taking a beating.
Their secret guest was also watching the fight with them. She made sure to add her opinions to the action.
"Do you see what I am saying? There is no Salvation for you in the supreme alliance. Your Salvation can only be granted through us."
She has said something similar to this earlier but the gods refused her. They have seen enough of the Supreme Alliance to know that they can't cross them without serious and most likely deadly repercussions. So they refused the offer to betray the Supreme Alliance.
They still had hope of freedom back then. The best that the Supreme Beasts could do was kill great gods and below. Even the Shadow of Despair couldn't harm the Celestials. But they are not sure of that anymore.
What's most absurd is not the strength that the shadow of Despair has shown. What they are most concerned about are the Warriors that will take beatings from him and not die.
These warriors would be punched deep into the earth. They might lose an arm or even half of their body but they will just rise again and confront him for another round.
So it isn't only the shadow of despair that is causing them to despair. The other Supreme beasts are not ordinary either. The use of several divine abilities has shown its extraordinary effect. The craters formed all over the plane by the warriors are proof of this.
A god was muttering hysterically, "This is not natural. They are unkillable. None of this is natural. We are doomed. We are doomed."
The Celestial Supreme shouted at him, "Will you shut up? Don't embarrass us in front of our guest. Get your act together. You are a god. You are better than this."
He said that not only to the hysterical god but to the other gods whose morale is at an all-time low. Unfortunately, talk is cheap. And in front of death, everyone is equal. That is unless they are immortal.
The gods are not immortal. In fact, they can't take the blows that the shadow of despair is fishing out without being dangerously close to death. And yet, those warriors can reach the gates of death and return. Who wouldn't be terrified of their future prospects after seeing this and knowing that they would soon be on the receiving end?
Their guest, a member of the illustrious and mythical Phoenix race didn't make fun of them for their unsightly behavior. Instead, she watched the ongoing fight in silence with the gods she had come to convince.
