Chapter 1787: Ancestor of Heaven and Earth
Lilith’s eyes widened in pure shock as she witnessed the dark fog rapidly enveloping her Divine Kingdom, severely hindering her connection to her domain’s immense power.
It was not a complete severance like what had happened previously with the Sun Lord and his Divine Kingdom—after all, the Blood Queen’s kingdom remained fundamentally intact—but this ethereal barrier significantly diminished the amount of Origin Power she could channel.
However, she had no opportunity to dwell on her limited power, as in the very next second, a menacing figure appeared directly outside her castle gates. Cain stood there, brandishing his enormous sword with a savage, ruthless grin, radiating a dreadful aura of annihilation.
He swung the sword without hesitation, its blade glowing ominously as it cut through space itself. The weapon carried not only immense destructive energy but an unprecedented amount of raw kinetic force—momentum far beyond what any Prima Deity should logically wield.
"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!"
The Blood Queen’s magnificent castle was obliterated instantly, reduced to dust and rubble. Lilith herself was thrown violently into the sky, her elegant features now twisted with terror as she faced the infernal red eyes of her attacker. Those eyes seemed fully capable of devouring her body, soul, and existence itself.
Cain smiled grimly, satisfied as the Blood Queen ascended into the open skies above. Although Meylin was powerful enough to shield the vampires of Lilith’s Divine Kingdom from collateral damage, a prolonged battle on the ground would inevitably claim countless innocent lives. He needed to finish this fight decisively, and quickly.
Taking a deep breath, Cain’s heartbeat suddenly accelerated, hammering with an intensity surpassing even the most ferocious cosmic storms.
"Fifth Gear!"
The Neo-Demon activated his Asura Form, triggering a cataclysmic eruption of energy within his body. The destructive inherent force of his Absolute Destruction True Doomsday Body surged, coating his form with a dark, metallic luster, transforming him visibly into a terrifying embodiment of pure destruction.
Lilith’s heart trembled violently at the monstrous figure before her. Immediately, she summoned every ounce of available Origin Power from her Divine Kingdom, desperately manifesting a majestic suit of Valkyrie armor across her slender body.
Yet before Lilith could fully complete this transformation, Cain was already upon her, his immense sword descending with overwhelming power. Lilith’s eyes widened in despair, barely managing to raise her Origin-infused spear in a desperate attempt to block the blow.
"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!"
The resulting explosion shattered space around them, sending web-like cracks splintering throughout the sky. Lilith’s delicate figure was hurled backward through the air, tumbling uncontrollably like a broken doll. Blood spilled from her mouth as the bones in her arms vibrated agonizingly, nearly fracturing beneath Cain’s overpowering strength.
Fortunately for her, at that critical moment, her armor finally finished forming completely, reinforcing her physical abilities and amplifying the potent blood energy at her command. With this armor, Lilith now had at least a slim chance to fight back and regain control.
Yet just as Lilith attempted to stabilize herself, Cain instantly appeared beside her, delivering a ruthless kick directly into her ribs. The devastating strike cracked her bones and propelled her higher and higher into the sky of the kingdom.
"ARGHHHHHH!"
A furious scream erupted from Lilith as she burned a fraction of her lifespan, forcefully regaining control of her battered body. She realized Cain was deliberately pushing her upward, attempting to force her entirely out of her own Divine Kingdom’s protective boundary—a scenario she could not allow to unfold.
Summoning every fragment of power left to her, she stabbed her spear repeatedly toward Cain, each thrust releasing immense pillars of blood-red energy descending like divine judgment.
"Hmph!"
Cain merely sneered disdainfully. Swinging his blade casually, he shattered each of her crimson pillars without slowing, maintaining his relentless pursuit and rapidly closing the distance between them.
Lilith clenched her teeth, panic and desperation surging within her. Fear intensified as she recognized no clear path of escape from this ordeal. If she had still been at her full strength, supported completely by her Divine Kingdom’s abundant energy, she could certainly overpower the Neo-Demon and force him to flee. But now, trapped and weakened, she felt powerless, able only to delay her inevitable defeat.
Just as Cain was nearing striking distance once again, a mighty aura suddenly swept through the surrounding chaos, rippling powerfully toward the Divine Kingdom. This formidable presence carried with it an undeniable weight, embodying the boundless majesty of the heavens and the eternal solidity of the earth. It felt as if this overwhelming aura had existed since time began and would persist until the universe’s end.
Upon sensing the familiar energy, Lilith’s face lit up with relief, her heart soaring as hope returned. The approaching aura belonged unmistakably to her patron Arch-Deity, the formidable Ancestor of Heaven and Earth. She now believed herself secure, confident that the mere presence of such an ancient power would force Cain to pause his merciless assault.
However, rather than halting his aggressive pursuit, Cain’s eyes burned brighter, his killing intent exploding fiercely. Instead of retreating or showing caution, he roared with even greater fury.
"Sixth Gear!"
Cain’s dark metallic aura intensified, becoming an embodiment of the absolute darkness of night itself. His already catastrophic destructive power surged exponentially, rising to an unfathomable, nearly uncontrollable magnitude.
In a flash, faster than even divine perception could register, Cain appeared directly before Lilith, launching another devastating strike with unstoppable speed and strength.
Lilith had no time to react.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Her agonized scream pierced the chaotic void as Cain’s enormous sword mercilessly sliced through her armor, tore into her shoulder, and completely severed her right arm from her body. Blood poured forth in torrents, painting the void in violent shades of red.
Witnessing this brutal act—especially after making his powerful presence known—enraged the Ancestor of Heaven and Earth beyond measure. The vast soul force contained within the aura now surged aggressively, swelling with apocalyptic might, clearly intent upon piercing through Lilith’s weakened Divine Kingdom to punish the insolent fool who dared defy his authority.
