Chapter 224: Chapter224-The Fall of a God!


    ?


    Owen might have a chance to break this iron law when he reaches the peak of sage-tier mage, but right now, he is far from it!


    "This Supreme Order-you''ve only just begun to master it, right? It gives you such a huge boost. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Such a treasure-why not hand it over instead of wasting it?" Pyrothrone King laughed wildly, looking at Owen, whose aura had surged to grandmaster-tier, as if this was a gift sent to him by the heavens.


    The Godslayer Staff!


    The Supreme Order!


    These are treasures that countless mages have pursued their whole lives without ever obtaining.


    And now, Owen had delivered them right into his hands!


    After all, what does it matter if Owen has reached grandmaster-tier? He''s still far too weak to be a match for me!


    Owen ignored Pyrothrone King''s taunts. Instead, he clenched his fists, feeling the nearly hundredfold increase in mana surging within him.


    It was an overwhelming sense of power like he had never felt before.


    With his current state and abilities, he had absolute confidence that he could face even a sage- tier mage.


    Owen took a deep breath and looked at the Godslayer Staff in his hand.


    If he relied solely on his own power, he still wouldn''t be a match for Pyrothrone King.No?v(el)B\\jnn


    After all, a god-tier mage is like an insurmountable mountain, and beneath it, all others are mere ants.


    However, the Godslayer Staff''s fourth ability-[Slaying God]: Increases battle power tenfold when fighting a god-tier mage!


    Previously, when Owen was at master-tier, this tenfold boost was barely enough to withstand Pyrothrone King''s attacks.


    But now, with the Supreme Order raising him to grandmaster-tier, and the tenfold boost from the Godslayer Staff, the result was a massive leap in power!


    After all, his base strength at grandmaster-tier was nearly a hundred times greater than when he was at master-tier!


    In an instant, the Godslayer Staff in Owen''s hand transformed into the Supreme Sword.


    Dark golden light flowed along the sword''s blade like clear water, radiating an astonishing chill.


    As the blade moved, the very fabric of space was sliced apart, leaving gaping wounds in the void, with ice crystals forming in its wake.


    "Supreme Sword!"


    At the moment when Pyrothrone King was both scornful and excited, Owen swung the sword with all his might!


    A dark golden sword aura shot forward, growing larger with the wind, transforming into a massive golden arc hundreds of meters wide.


    The boiling heat in the air from the molten lava was torn apart by the aura, and the seething lava itself was suppressed, sinking back and cooling rapidly.


    The smile on Pyrothrone King''s face froze as he was locked onto by the Supreme Sword. From that approaching sword strike, he felt an overwhelming sense of death!


    How could this be?


    sun.


    It evaporated the surrounding lava, mana, and even the very fabric of space itself, appearing suddenly in front of Owen, ready to incinerate him into nothingness!


    This attack was vicious and resolute. The Pyrothrone King had sacrificed half his flesh, warping space in a way that left Owen with no way to escape.


    "Die!"


    As the enormous fireball engulfed Owen, Pyrothrone King''s face twisted into a cruel smile.


    Losing half his flesh was an irreparable loss, even for a god-tier mage, but the danger Owen posed was far too great. His instincts screamed that eliminating Owen at any cost was the best


    choice!


    He had absolute confidence that this sacrifice, imbued with a vast portion of his magical power, could devastate even a god-tier mage.


    Let alone Owen, a grandmaster-tier mage-he would fall for sure!


    Boom!


    As the blazing fireball, as bright and hot as the sun, enveloped Owen, a shield inscribed with intricate runes appeared before him.


    It was the Guardian Shield, the second form of the Godslayer Staff, which Owen had activated!


    The Pyrothrone King''s attack had come so suddenly that even Owen barely had time to react. However, the deep sense of danger had instinctively driven him to activate the Echo Barrier.


    It was the best decision he could have made.


    Echo Barrier: All projectile-based attacks could be absorbed by the Guardian Shield and reflected back with threefold power.


    This skill could only be used twice a day, but it ignored any difference in levels!


    It was Owen''s only way to block this strike.


    After all, Pyrothrone King''s attack, infused with his own flesh and blood, made every cell in


    Owen''s body tremble in fear.


    The massive fireball had already carbonized Owen''s outer layers, but with the appearance of


    the Guardian Shield, the sun-like fireball was instantly absorbed. The overwhelming pressure of imminent death disappeared without a trace.


    The blazing sun fell eerily silent, and the crazed, savage grin on Pyrothrone King''s face


    abruptly changed.


    He suddenly realized that he had lost control of this apocalyptic fireball!


    At the same time, a terrifying aura erupted from the shield in front of Owen!


    "No!"


    He realized too late, as the gigantic sun that had filled the sky surged out from the shield and engulfed him whole.
