Chapter 423 The Seed Players, All Annihilated!
Chapter 423 The Seed Players, All Annihilated!
Sterl's situation caused immense suffering among the sixteen seed players!
They couldn't even devise a plan to draw David out; David simply didn't make any external contact.
The seed players considered attempting to ambush other members of the Twilight Guild to find David.
But, as expected, besides the two vice presidents, David didn't care about the other members of Twilight at all; if trouble happened, it happened.
Mainly, Sterl felt that Twilight wasn't worried about recruiting new members right now, so why should he play babysitter to rescue them? It was ridiculous!
Let those unfortunate souls fend for themselves; it would instead allow them to recruit stronger guild members.
As a result, the seed players felt that David might actually make it to the finals without a hitch.
If that were the case, what would happen to them?
Who could contend with such a terrifying existence in the finals?
If they didn't secure first place, they wouldn't obtain the divine artifact! Even if they placed in the rankings, the ultimate benefits would only be enough to support 1 or 2 divine-level births.
They could not reach the goal they had set when the sixteen of them formed an alliance.
In the face of a great catastrophe, two measly divine levels wouldn't be able to protect anyone!
However, the seed players never expected that scouts would suddenly discover David had left his residence.
Instantly, they rejoiced and chased after him!
They sensed the residual power from the previous Iridescent-Level skill, which made them feel faintly uneasy, but under the cover of the blood-colored document, the seed players could only sense the strong remnants of the skill's fluctuations!
How strong exactly… they didn't know.
Moreover, the arrow was on the string; it had to be released!
They decisively chose to take action, but someone acted even faster!
At this moment…
Sterl's expression changed, and he immediately summoned the power within his body, Shattered Void, ready to strike!
Fission Law slowly charged up!
He regretted having shown off earlier by using the Holy Spirit Bloodline to enhance Silent Domain.
"My biggest flaw is still my kindness."
"Mainly, I don't want to kill indiscriminately; otherwise, Shattered Void would be enough to wipe out all the members of the Felix Guild."
"But it can't suppress everyone like the Iridescent-Level Silent Domain without harming anyone."
"Now, I'm missing a big move."
Sterl felt a bit remorseful; indeed… being soft-hearted was not an option!
The reason he was going all out now was because of the sudden appearance of the sixteen mysterious Supremes; regardless of whether their intentions were benevolent or malevolent, it was best to strike first!
The sixteen seed players were also stunned; they hadn't expected to face David's big move right from the start.
Among them, the elder with the most powerful aura smiled casually and said, "I'll block him; you all quickly use that..."
The other players didn't hesitate and quickly gathered together; one of them produced a brilliant glowing orb while the others infused their own power into it.
Instantly, amidst flashes of lightning and thunder, a portal with an incredibly strong gravitational pull rapidly emerged.
As the player who retrieved the glowing orb silently recited a few words, Sterl felt all the gravitational pull converge upon him.
Unfortunately...
It was too late!!
Sterl had acted too early, almost beginning to gather his power the moment the sixteen seed players descended.
That elder dashed forward confidently, a platinum light emanating from him, while a beam of light resembling a star fell from above.
"Hmm?"
Sterl paused slightly; he sensed a power that shared origins with the Starry Clan.
However, during battle, he didn't want to think too much, so he quickly drew his sword!
Instantly, Shattered Void froze the surrounding space with its solidifying effect!
Then, Sterl swung his sword, and countless sword lights and shadows flickered.
All those sword lights and shadows transformed into the most intense explosive projectiles, igniting and launching!
Brilliant white light consumed everything.
The sixteen seed players merely watched; they were not Sterl's targets at all. Sterl had aimed his strike in the direction where they had escaped to.
After all, [Transcendence] was just a game; unless under special circumstances, his skills couldn't harm himself.
Sterl rushed into the white light of Fission, casually tossing out a Fate Token.
At that moment, no one could stop him!
The elder closest to Sterl didn't make a move!
Because he…
Was gone!
Although Shattered Void was not aimed at the elder, the attack range of Fission was too vast.
The light and heat generated by the simultaneous explosions of countless sword lights instantly engulfed the elder, and the star power he had released vanished without a trace, not even causing a ripple!
At this moment, the terrifying light shone brightly.
The gravitational pull from the portal had no effect at all, rapidly being neutralized by the high energy of Fission!
The remaining fifteen seed players and other members of the Felix Guild looked up at the terrifying energy swirling in the sky, each one forced to hand over their various protective items.
In an instant, the surroundings were filled with a myriad of colorful shield skills.
Yet, under the might of Fission, most of the shields still developed cracks and eventually shattered slowly.
Fortunately, Sterl's Fission Law was similar to the power of a nuclear bomb in reality; its maximum output could only be sustained for a few seconds unless he injected additional energy.
As a result, everyone watched the space cracks formed by the destructive high energy in mid-air with lingering fear, their hearts racing!
"This... this is the true power of David when he goes all out!"
"Thank goodness we didn't provoke him earlier; otherwise, we would have been wiped out!"
"Seeing it this way, we sacrificed a guild core to save our lives, and that's not too bad."
The members of the Felix Guild whispered to each other, each feeling a bit fearful.
After all, David had taken their guild core; since they had already submitted, could they still fear him?
They had already expressed their submission to him; he couldn't just kill them, right?
But the fifteen seed players felt a chilling sensation all over!
They felt as though they had walked a circle at the gates of hell.
When that last attack was unleashed, they hadn't defended in time. Who would have thought that David would be so decisive and unleash his full power?
If it weren't for David needing to use that move to escape, choosing to attack them with all his might, he might have been sucked into the portal, and they would have vanished in that light as well, unable to even use their life-saving items!
"What... what kind of monster is this?"
"What kind of existence have we provoked?"
"Why is his combat power even more ferocious than before?"
These people spoke in dazed tones.
Sterl's Iridescent-Level Silent Domain unleashed during the Valor Combatants tournament had a terrifying effect, but its power was extremely restrained.
Those watching from the sidelines, or even those who had been instantaneously killed by that move, didn't feel it was that overwhelming.
But now, with the combination of Shattered Void and Fission Law delivering such extreme output, it left these Supremes and pseudo-divine level experts trembling in fear!
The fifteen seed players found it absurd.
The only reason they hadn't died just now was because…
Of David's mere whim.
"Should we continue?"
"Should we keep looking for trouble with David, or should we… just give up?"
In the mental realm, the remaining seed players were communicating.
"Continue? What are you talking about?!"
"Why aren't you running?!"
After exchanging just a couple of sentences, the fifteen of them prepared to scatter. They had initially plotted against Sterl to achieve a good ranking in the Valor Combatants tournament, to advance to divine status, and then secure their lives.
The core was their lifeline!
David was too powerful; why would they contest against him?
They seemed hesitant, but communication among Supreme and quasi-divine level experts was incredibly swift. In just a couple of moments, the seed players dispersed in every direction.
Then, the player who had previously released the portal reached out, intending to retract it.
However—
"Hey, where's my hand?"
"No, wait, why do I feel…?"
He suddenly felt a sharp pain throughout his body before vanishing into thin air.
This seed player died without understanding how.
His companions, however, witnessed a scene of sheer terror—
David, that legendary killer, had come back!
At this moment, David's body was enveloped in a thin layer of strange creation; it resembled both armor and some kind of cheap plastic film. Yet, thanks to this film, he was immune to the portal's gravitational pull.
This was the barrier created by Sterl using Divine Power to invoke divine authority earlier.
In the Hall of Valor, where no gods existed, David could act more boldly, manipulating Divine Power without fear of being detected.
Until now, Sterl had no idea where those sixteen strong players had come from or what their purpose was.
But that didn't stop him from launching a counterattack.
Once again, he condensed the Flowing Water Blade, activated Shattered Void, and infused it with Fission Law!
Sterl swallowed several different mental recovery potions all at once.
Instantly, he felt a bit full.
He had taken too many potions at once.
Sterl still had the presence of mind to complain.
But facing the fifteen seed players under Shattered Void, they were all in utter chaos!
They had just used their life-saving abilities and items.
Now, they were a split second too slow to react—perhaps even a thousandth of a second—but that was equivalent to a death sentence!!
Bright platinum lights flickered, and vague techniques began to coalesce.

Sterl's expression turned serious as he saw six beams of platinum light transform into an iridescent glow!
First, countless strange threads formed into a towering statue, representing power that was beyond divine level, gradually shifting towards godly strength!
Simultaneously, he could sense an inexplicable chill emanating from his shadow.
Sterl sensed that strange shadow, half platinum and half iridescent, binding toward him.
Alongside that was an extraordinarily intense light that seemed to threaten the obliteration of everything!
In that moment, all fifteen Supreme and quasi-divine level experts were fighting for their lives!
At this point, it was evident how thoroughly divine level power crushed ordinary power.
They were all reacting a beat too slowly, hastily launching their attacks.
The greater power of the half iridescent abilities was even faster than the normal Platinum Skill releases!
Unfortunately…
Sterl's Shattered Void itself was equivalent to demigod-level power!
