From Secret Clan to the Divine Dynasty

Chapter 435 The 7th Seal

"Awoo!"

An apocalyptic scene chilled the hearts of everyone in the city.

As a demon dragon, Darren attacked the blonde Agata with malicious intent time after time, yet his attacks were continuously evaded through her method of blink teleportation.

Not a single attack managed to hit its target.

There is, in fact, a widely accepted notion among Extraordinary Exponents that for every Extraordinary, every kind of extraordinary power, there ultimately exists a natural nemesis.

Now, Darren felt he had encountered his nemesis; his skills in "mobility" and "accuracy" were not weak, but they were still lacking.

The woman could continuously "blink teleport" within hundreds of meters, and her evasive speed was simply too fast to touch.

He knew that to defeat the blonde woman, he would have to deplete a huge amount of Spiritual Power and use "Soul Command" to stand a chance in this game against her.

"So, let's play a game!"

However, just at this moment, the outcome of the battle between Chris and Yeager had been decided!

The two had coordinated their fight against the King of Vallere and two other Monarch Transcendents, and with Chris's abilities of "stasis" and "lethality," the result had come about quickly.

The two low-level Monarch Extraordinary Exponents from Vallere were killed in a short amount of time!

Even with the weakening effect of the city's barrier, Chris, who had reached the 6th Rank, still possessed overwhelmingly powerful abilities! Like the true "Death God," he effortlessly destroyed them.

"How could this be so quick? Impossible!"

Agata watched the scene with utter shock, her face a mask of disbelief, chest heaving, and body trembling uncontrollably.

Why was the Fischer family's "Death God" able to appear suddenly in the capital from miles away? And how did he avoid being locked down by the National Defense Barrier?

Why was that man from the intelligence reports, supposedly named Yeager, also a Monarch Level Extraordinary?

Why, despite the barrier's weakening effect, did their power seem even greater than imagined?

Question after question, one incredible thing after another, almost drove Agata to the brink of collapse.

However, as the leader of the Reconstruction Army, she remained a very determined person and quickly recovered.

"I think I understand now, it's very likely that someone from your Fischer family, or some kind of powerful Mysterious rare artifact, possesses a power similar to mine?"

"But remember this, Cyart people! This will not be the end! It will only be the beginning!" she declared loudly.

After expressing her anger, Agata used some Forbidden rare artifact to amplify her own power, and a severe flash of light began to emerge around the city. The next moment, she and the Valer Old King were both teleported thousands of miles away.

In an instant, both had fled the battlefield.

"Tsk, a handy ability."

Darren shook his head and sneered as he watched the scene unfold. Just moments ago she had been so eager to fight for the Vallere citizens, and now, wasn't she decisively abandoning the entire city to escape?

His mouth mocked, but in his heart, he had formed a clear assessment of Agata, the leader of Vallere's Reconstruction Army.

She was a woman of meticulous thought and decisive action, and today's failure to kill her would likely cause significant trouble in the future; truly a pity.

Soon after, both Chris and Yeager disappeared without a trace, and Darren knew that they had returned to Nasir City in Cyart.

Darren realized he couldn't linger here any longer and quickly took three four-digit numbered Forbidden rare artifacts from the two fallen Extraordinary Exponents before flying towards the south, in the direction of Cyart.

Shortly after, he began to feel weakened, as the "demon" part of his Double Transformation faded.

"I hope I won't be intercepted by the Church's strongmen on my way..."

Unconsciously, he had a vague sense that he had used his "Destiny's Trajectory" once again to avert a lethal disaster.

"Phew, truly a useful destiny..."

So it was; indeed there had been a powerful presence from Vallere trying to intercept him on his return, although he hadn't encountered it... thankfully, he had not encountered it!

After fleeing for a while, Darren finally made it back to Nasir City in Cyart successfully.

Within Fischer Manor, everyone had been waiting anxiously for a long time, completely unaware of whether Darren would make it back safely.

At last, when people saw him return safely and smoothly, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

In the hall of the Fischer Manor, Christine sitting in the wheelchair already knew the whole situation and said directly, "I didn't expect the people of Vallere to actually betray us."

Now that he had completely relaxed, Darren nodded and said with a smile, "Because the coup was carried out in secret, I indeed was a bit surprised, but they still completely underestimated our power, as well as the great power of the Lord of the Lost…"

"That's a very normal thing," Christine nodded calmly.

"The great Lord of the Lost, the power He possesses is something that mortals cannot understand, and since it cannot be understood, naturally it cannot be speculated with the wisdom of ordinary people."

Darren agreed with this view; indeed, it was logical.

Even the most intelligent person needs to deduce various situations through the "known."

If someone could really come up with the "unknown" solutions out of thin air, then that's not the level of ordinary human "intelligence," but it could be said that it's the level of "foreknowledge" or "deduction" of extraordinary power.

Afterward, they sacrificed the three forbidden rare artifacts they obtained in this battle to the great Lord of the Lost.

Finally, after more than ten years of accumulation, the Seventh Seal... was broken!

——

Karl truly felt that after the Sixth Seal was broken, his "mobility" had become much more powerful than before.

He used to need believers to initiate prayers before he could bestow the black mist, allowing other believers to arrive on the scene, but now there was no need for prayer as a medium; as long as there were believers present, he could summon the thick black mist.

Moreover, after the Fischer family's influence expanded, he devoured a very large amount of forbidden rare artifacts, continuously acquiring spiritual power, and today, the time to break the Seventh Seal finally arrived.

"I've finally reached this step... the Seventh Seal… Only the last three seals are left, and all the seals can be completely broken, and all memories regained."

Thinking of this, Karl couldn't help but feel a bit confused and thoughtful.

So, what will I become once I break all the seals and regain all my memories?

"Am I truly Karl, or am I still Shen Ling?"

"So, can I turn back into a 'human'? Or will I become an even more advanced 'god'?"

"Who was it that sealed me in the first place?"

"What exactly are those voices and dreams in my previous memories about?"

"Why do I possess such powerful strength?"

Although many seals had been broken, Karl truly felt that his confusion had only increased, not decreased, and deep in his heart, he harbored various concerns.

He even had a vague idea.

Perhaps, something very terrible would happen after all ten seals were undone.

In the end, Karl made up his mind again!

"But no matter what, having come this far, I can only keep going, to resolve all doubts, I must… break all the seals."

Thus, he still did not refuse the sacrifices of the Fischer family and Dawn Church, devouring more forbidden rare artifacts containing spiritual power…

The Seventh Seal, broken!

"Look quickly!"

People all over Konrad World raised their heads as the sky seemed to be torn apart by an invisible hand; a gigantic black light burst into the sky across the world, instantly dyeing the daylight into an ominous darkness.

This neither the fall of stars nor the clash of thunder and lightning but a never-before-seen, profound and eerie darkness, carrying with it an indescribable pressure that reached deep into the core of people's fears.

As people looked up, they saw the black light twisting and spreading like the shadows of the end, segmenting the sky into disjointed domains of darkness.

The city lights seemed so tiny at this moment, as if they could be devoured by this power at any time. The expressions on people's faces froze, quickly shifting from surprise to shock, fear, and finally to despair. Nearly everyone's body began to tremble uncontrollably, heart rates accelerated, as if they could hear the tremble deep within their souls!

As the black light continued, the balance within Konrad World was finally broken; fire dragons surged, dark clouds blanketed the sky, and lightning struck the earth. The whole world trembled at this sudden and bizarre phenomenon!

Many people began to wonder if this were a harbinger of the end of days, or if some unknown and terrifying great power was awakening, ready to completely overturn existing civilization!
