Lord Shadow

Chapter 1074: Prelude to a battle



One could not see it but if one could see this invisible and untraceable Divine Sense, it would look like an explosion of energy that bursted out from his head, an invisible waves energy that is spreading out from him as the center covering every inch of the area around him as it grows wider and wider like some kind of energy blast

But this Divine Sense that could not be seen is not used to attack. If not the entire forest in front of him would probably turns to ashes.

Even when he was in Disk Formation, his Divine Sense is powerful

But at that time it was not so powerful that he could use his Divine Sense to attack people in such a destructive way.

It is different if one trying to covet the domain of his Divine Sense, which mean the opponent trying to eavesdrop his Divine Sense communication or entering his range of Divine Sense.

Because of his strength, any such act would cause backlash to the person that is doing it.,

But his Divine Sense alone could not create a phenomenon where he could feel every living thing around him and if he wished it, exert pressure on the living this that falls under the area of effect of his Divine Sense.

The power of the Divine Sense seems to also be affected a bit by the Will and determination of the user and also the soul of that person.

The properties of the Divine Sense depending on intention and one soul. This is just Azief thoughts and it could not be considered the truth of Divine Sense. 

His Divine Sense continues to spread out.

He did it in a way that did not attract attention. 

At the same time, those who were nearby, the formation master in the inner circle of the formation that spans a few hundred kilometers is flying in the air toward Death Monarch to greet him

Those who could not fly or know start their flying abilities is low, ride the single spaceship. It is spherical in nature and flat and thin but enough to fit one person inside. 

As it was designed to travel inside Earth, it limits the speed to just below the threshold of the speed of light.

There is no FTL drive inside the ship and is suitable for use in Earth. 

Some of the formation masters had deep knowledge about array formation but the same could not be said for their other abilities

As such, they could not fly as fast as certain other people who have Laws that is related to gravity or laws of the world.

There is the limitation of their bodies that also needs to be considered since formation master mostly train their knowledge and their proficiency in writing or designing array formation instead of strengthening their body.

As you travel in fast speed, not only you have to be able to manipulate air and wind around you, you also need powerful body to withstand the speed that you are travelling. 

As such formation master is at a disadvantage. 

In the early beginning after the Multiversal Convergence ended, the world keep expanding and the cave where the formation masters is stationed also keep getting bigger and wider. 

As such, the job that is to lay down a protection formation around the cave become harder and harder. 

That is because they need to keep expanding the range of the protection formation. They complained this to Sasha. 

That they could not keep up with the expansion of the cave as they need to travel to the other four side of the cave and add more formation. 

It was originally only a dome formation covering the area of the cave but as the cave and the world keep expanding the concentric dome design is abandoned and instead a wide concentric dome with inner and outer circles is modified.

So, the Shadow Guards lend a few of their technology to the formation masters.

Most of these formation masters are the formation masters that resided in Pandemonium. 

Some regarded Pandemonium as their home and some others wanted to gain recognition by the powerful men and women in the Court so they were hired by the Shadow Guards to lay down the formation

Now, after hearing the message of Death Monarch they quickly are going to meet with Death Monarch. 

Azief on the other hand slowly widening his Divine Sense. 

He wanted to know the size of Pandemonium right now and also to inform certain people that he is back

To them, it would look like he had finished his seclusion. 

As his Divine Sense widened, it clashes with the formation all around the area. 

One by one it is destroyed. 

But it is gently destroyed, like someone had a master key and opens all of this formation and opens the door gently.

The formation master in the outer circle of the large gigantic formation simply felt a disturbance in the energy flow around them and then before they could reach the protection formation it dissipated like it was never there in the beginning.

Some of them were panicking and was about to send a warning signal but then a voice would echo in his ears.

‘It is me, Death Monarch’ this sentence is enough to calm them down. 

When they think about it, there is only a few people in the world that could dismantle their formation in such a non-intrusive way 

If its Death Monarch, it makes sense. Some of them even prostrated themselves toward the direction of that Divine Sense. 

The Divine Sense move even further and then it reaches the twelve peaks. 

The moment it reached them, the twelve peaks cracks and like a powerful anti-matter force, the twelve peaks slowly crumbles. 

The twelve hooded men that sat on the peaks floated in the air. 

They were all ready to execute an attack toward the direction of that Divine Sense.

They did not seem to care whether the person that send such a Divine Sense is powerful or not. They are doing their duty. 

But even before they could unsheathe their weapons or execute an attack, the same voice that echoes in the ears of the formation master also echoes in their ears and they all bowed toward that direction.

Azief is still in front of that entrance of the cave. 

All of this happens in a matter of two seconds. He takes a step forward and his Divine Sense seems to correspond with him as the rate it moves and the rate it expand become faster.

Then Azief look at the Heavens above and his eyes turns bluish with golden streaks in his pupils as he reconnects back with his connection with the Heavens Will.

But this time, he felt resistance.

‘Ah, it seems you have grown stronger and wanted to push my Will out of your domain. How…. childish of you’ And there is a smile on the corner of his mouth

Above his head, clouds gather. In just a few seconds, dark clouds fill the area.

The people that was about to arrive at the area suddenly stops in the air 

Even those in the spaceship stop their ship. 

For those who were flying, they could feel the gust of wind that seems to come out of nowhere. They felt the disturbance in the energy around them

Like it is becoming chaotic and unorderly. 

All it takes was for one moment to know that something is wrong

As for those in the spaceship, the radar and their interactive intelligence construct that is outfitted in their spaceship send a warning that an enormous amount of energy anomaly is detected.

They waited a few hundred kilometers away as they saw the dark clouds gathering above the area of the cave.

And instead of this weird phenomenon dissipating, the clouds become larger and the energy around the area become even more chaotic and uninviting

Rain drop began to fall down. Slow at first but only just a second later it picked up momentum

The men who is in the air is not drenched because they could create thin membrane of energy around them that dispel the rain but they still felt that the energy of the rain is very potent.

There is some weight in each of the raindrops. It is hard to explain it.

This is no normal rain. 

Sparks of energy create sparks of lighting in the air. 

These lightning is also not normal. 

It seems to absorb the energy around it and when it flashes by it was like a weapon hurled to the ground from some celestial realm

The wind moves swiftly and not before long some storms come down from the clouds to the ground.

Like a meteor impacting the world, the moment the wind touch down on the ground, the soil like it is being grinded turns into dust and smaller particles. 

Ravaged by the wind storms, thousands of trees are plucked from the ground, some of the trees were moving diagonally before they were sucked into the wind storm.

The twelve guards narrowed their eyes, looking at all of the phenomenon in the air. 

Around them, there is this sense of heaviness. The Sun is being blocked by the clouds and only darkness seems to reign here.

But they did not move toward Death Monarch

This seems to be the prelude to a battle and they know that this is not a battle that they could interfere.
