He had 108 material planes under his control and had innumerable worshipers and an abundance of resources now. He had even groomed quite a few true gods.
So, why should he take it lying down?
“After Horace kills that mortal, he can then also destroy the Beast People and the Fairies along the way and unify Heaven’s Vault Continent. That continent shall once again become my power of faith domain!”
...
Elsewhere, in another remote and hidden divine nation, a muscular man with horns on his head and a stern, dignified countenance was also watching the happenings in Heaven’s Vault Continent.
His countenance was sinister, and his eyes were spitting fire as though someone had owed him a few million dollars.
He was the deity whom the Dragon God Empire had worshiped—the Dragon God!
“That damned knave! And how lucky of Horace!”
The Dragon God was in an awful mood. He watched the two figures standing proudly at the Mount Dragon God summit with not even a trace of positive feelings on his face at all.
Meng Lei versus Horace!
No matter who the final victory went to, it was of no relevance to the Dragon God at all. Regardless, he would still end up losing his power of faith domain known as the Dragon God Empire.
That was his one and only power of faith domain!
“That damned mortal! I have to kill him! I have to!”
The Dragon God was livid.
If he could, he would rip Meng Lei into a million pieces. Wiping out the Dragon Island half-deities and overthrowing the Dragon People nobles had thoroughly ruined him at the roots.
It had caused his hopes of recapturing the Dragon God Empire to become incredibly distant and remote. It was no longer possible for him to take back the Dragon God Empire as a power of faith domain.
This was especially true when he had been slaughtered alive by Meng Lei in front of so many people just now. It was practically the greatest humiliation ever. He had been thoroughly embarrassed and more!
“I have to kill him! No matter what, I have to kill him!” The Dragon God gnashed his teeth in a fury. “Better yet if neither side wins and all of them die!”
The Dragon God’s current frame of mind had even become rather warped. He hated Meng Lei because Meng Lei had seized his power of faith domain and caused him to thoroughly embarrass himself.
He was also jealous of the Titan Spiritual God. By what virtue did that all brawn and no brains fool deserve to receive a Divine Realm force’s grooming for no reason whatsoever?
He hated them!
He was jealous of them!
Yet all he could do was just watch on helplessly!
...
On Mount Dragon God...
Be it the people of the Meng Lei Empire, Meng Lei’s worshipers, the three major empires’ envoys, or the experts from each clan, everyone was watching the two figures in the sky with rapt attention.
Such nervousness!
Such anticipation!
Everyone knew this very well—this battle would determine the newly-founded empire’s future, decide the humans’ fate, and even the entire Heaven’s Vault Continent’s fate!
Should Meng Lei win, the humans would fully rise up and sweep through the entire continent with unstoppable momentum. It was highly likely that Heaven’s Vault Continent would be unified once more.
Should Meng Lei lose, the newly-founded Meng Lei Empire would be split up, taken over, and ripped into pieces by other parties. The humans would also be thrown back into their original plight and forced back into slavery.
Therefore, this battle was of critical importance.
“Go for it, Your Majesty!”
“Great God Meng Lei, you are unbeatable! You’ll definitely beat the demons!”
“Die! Meng Lei must die! Only when he’s dead...”
Some prayed silently, some cursed him viciously, and some gloated over the situation.
During this moment, where everyone’s thoughts differed from one another, Meng Lei made the first move.
“Since that’s the case, then it would only be rude of me to decline any further!”
Whoosh!
At once, Meng Lei vanished on the spot.
He bizarrely appeared right behind Horace the next instant. At the same time, the Hammer of Destruction also appeared in his hand, and he swung it ruthlessly toward Horace’s head.
“Little fellow, teleportation might be a good skill, but it’s useless against me!”
Horace reached out. He easily caught the Hammer of Destruction in his hand with a light grab. Then, with a forceful grip, a crack rang out, and the Hammer of Destruction was actually crushed into smithereens!
Boom!
Then, Horace’s other hand clenched tightly into a fist and soundlessly appeared at Meng Lei’s abdomen. Like a launched cannon, Meng Lei was instantly sent flying.
“Master!”
Bubbles and the others’ countenances changed drastically at the sight of that.
“Hahaha! Great! As expected of Horace, the legendary Titan! Well done! Well done!”
The Thunder Titan Emperor couldn’t help but be thrilled at the sight. In this instant, all his previous worry and nervousness had turned into excitement.
Crushing the Hammer of Destruction with just a grab!
Sending Meng Lei flying with just a punch!
He had made two moves in a single instant and was fully suppressing Meng Lei in every aspect, exhibiting overwhelming power. The two weren’t on the same level at all.
Doomed! Meng Lei was doomed for sure!
“Your Majesty, that arrogant fellow isn’t Horace’s match. It’s highly likely that he’ll die at Horace’s hands. What should we do?”
Azshara, the valiant Fairy regimental commander, leaned over to the Fairy Empress and asked softly, “Do we save him?”
The Fairy Empress didn’t respond because she was currently very troubled, too.
Save him?
Based on what Meng Lei had said just now, saving him would be akin to
