Chapter 332 An Existence To Fear
Chapter 332 An Existence To Fear
The Moon God, once revered as a divine entity, was now trembling and powerless against Aengus' overwhelming Void energy. Bound firmly in place, his radiant aura flickered faintly like a candle against the oppressive darkness that loomed over him.
The difference between them was staggering—more than 1,000 levels apart. For someone of his stature, this gap was insurmountable. Even among divine beings, reaching such heights was near impossible without centuries of effort and unimaginable resources.
The truth was clear: after ascending to SSS rank, progression became an arduous task. The resources required to level up were astronomical—ordinary worldly treasures or hunting could no longer suffice. Many divine beings, even gods, would find themselves stagnant for decades, sometimes even centuries, before making meaningful progress.
In their past ascensions, they had relied on the Divine Stone, which permanently surged their levels by 200–300 upon transcending. However, such opportunities were rare, often limited to a single use in one's lifetime.
But for Aengus, the outcome had been unprecedented. The explosion in power after consuming the Divine Stone had been amplified by his unparalleled potential, resulting in a leap of 1,590 levels.
Now, his dominance was absolute. The Moon God, once a symbol of divine elegance and power, was reduced to a trembling figure, incapable of even resisting the suffocating presence of the Void Monarch.
"This is the price for your complacency," Aengus' resonating voice echoed through the trembling world, a declaration that sent chills through the divine and mortal alike.
The Moon God Artemes had crumbled under the weight of impending doom. His gaze turned frantically to his mortal followers below, desperation etched into his glowing form.
"Save me, you useless pieces of junk!" Artemes screamed, his voice cracking, his once-commanding tone now drenched in hysteria. "He's going to kill me... I'm going to die! Sacrifice yourselves for me!"
The sheer desperation and madness in his cries shattered the image of a calm, benevolent deity.
Saintess Lumenaria and the Heroes, bound by their blind faith, stood frozen, their hearts sinking as they witnessed their god unravel before their eyes. Tears brimmed in Lumenaria's eyes as she cried out, "Moon God!" But their pleas were drowned by the cold resonance of the Void Entity.
In a final act of futility, Artemes let out a scream that could hardly be associated with a divine figure. The Void engulfed him effortlessly, swallowing his light and form into an abyss darker than anything the world had ever known. His cries of terror echoed briefly before being snuffed out entirely, leaving only silence in his wake.
The scene was surreal and haunting, leaving the witnesses paralyzed in fear and awe. The once-proud Heroes, who had devoted their lives to divine service, now stood helpless, their faith fractured.
The Old Elf Emperor Valeris and his confidants, seasoned veterans of countless battles, made their decision swiftly. Without a word, they turned and took to the skies, fleeing the scene with no intention of looking back. Their retreat was a silent admission of the insurmountable power they had just witnessed.
"What can we mortals even do, when divinity itself falls so easily?" Valeris muttered as they disappeared into the portals.

Aengus could feel the surge of energy coursing through his being as the essence of the Moon God was fully absorbed. His void-like presence expanded further, its oppressive aura radiating across the world. The newfound Nine Heavenly Moon Summon skill resonated within him, increasing his SSS rank skills to two though his first one fell onto the category of Unique Skills (Ultimate).
Aengus mused silently, "So, low-rank gods like Artemes are limited to a single SSS skill. Pathetic. Their very souls confine them. But me? My limits are yet to be found. Two SSS skills already, and there's still so much potential left to unravel."
He pushed aside the fragmented memories of Artemes' pitiful existence. The knowledge of the gods' hierarchy and their inherent restrictions barely interested him now. Most of them were ants in comparison to the power he wielded now.
Instead, his attention shifted to the scene below. The chaotic scattering of humans, demons, and so-called heroes retreating after witnessing the Moon God's demise was almost amusing.
Yes, they fearing his presence.
His gaze locked onto Beelzebub once again.
The past trauma Beelzebub had given him was still fresh in his mind. And the time has finally came. To take his revenge.
Beelzebub froze mid-flight as if an unseen force had yanked at his very essence. He could feel the weight of Aengus' gaze pressing down on his soul, suffocating and absolute.
