Chapter 578: Theo Against Saint Monica – Part 1

Visibly, it was almost impossible to detect the divine beings on Planet Illuminat, which made them lower their guard.

"I said, don't worry, Kihahaha!" Saint Frizesto snorted and released icy air right after drinking a full glass of the nine suns beer.

The fellow next to him, Saint Afazendy, belched and chuckled, "Yeah, whoever the bastard doing this is, even if it's that fucking fox, he'll soon be seven feet below the ground, Hahahaha!"

"You're not wrong." A drunken smile formed on Saint Frizento's face, "A bastard like that will soon die at the hands of Lord Izack if he provokes him."

"I hope so." Said the other, "Lord Izack won't move if you don't provoke him, but if he kills someone in his territory, he'll act."

"Interesting."

Suddenly, they hear a dark voice, devoid of any human emotion.

"Who is it?"

Saint Frizesto and Saint Afazendy tried to find the voice's origin and soon felt abandoned by the world. Everything was silent, the people who were previously in the same place, now there were only the two of them. The walls that surrounded them changed, now they were in a hemispheric place, and their powers were reduced.

"Y-You!" Transforming into a Divine Anaconda, Saint Afazendy prepares to attack Theo.

Name: Afazendy

Race: Divine Beast.

Species: Divine Anaconda.

Cultivation: 8th layer of Saint Realm.

Faster than a whip, his tail slashed at Theo's head, ripping through spacetime, causing vibrations in the air.

At the same time, Saint Frizesto transformed into a Divine Unicorn; he was the standard size of a horse, with a horn and white fur. He starts running towards Theo.

_ _

Name: Frizesto

Race: Divine Beast.

Species: Divine Unicorn.

Cultivation: 9th layer of Saint Realm.

Theo's expression didn't change, and he remained indifferent while in his hands, icy air began to escape.

*BOOM!*

Almost simultaneously, the horn of Saint Frizesto and the tail of Saint Afazendy slammed into Theo's hands.

*ZZZZzzZZzzzz!*

The sound of freezing echoed.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

The scream of the two Saints was pitiful, it was like they were on fire, but the reality was that they were being frozen.

The ice continues to appear on the gigantic body of Saint Afazendy, and it was even faster to spread than on the body of Saint Frizesto.

Even Saint Frizesto, who had an affinity for ice, was being frozen, albeit more slowly. However, as much as he struggled, trying to escape, he couldn't compete in strength with Theo, and he learned that the hard way.

"[Devour]!"

Despite not knowing what was to come, that word that came out of Theo's mouth was worse than the devil's whisper. If before they were shivering with fear from the cold, now it was what the future held for them. However, such a future does not exist, and they disappeared for all eternity after that moment.

[Congratulations! You've reached the 6th Layer of Saint Realm]

'Again... Even now, my soul has not improved.' Theo had a vague idea why. If his soul grew, it would become a million-year-old soul. At the moment he found a bottleneck, perhaps he needed to fulfill a prerequisite to achieve such a feat.

Soon the illusions created by Theo begin to dissolve, and he is back in the same bar as before; Saint Frizesto and Saint Afazendy were there, but as elementary clones of Theo disguised as them.

'Next target, Wolf of the Divine Moon...' A good gift was on its way for Shina, a divinity that suits her perfectly. On top of that, it was a female who had that bloodline, one who wanted to experiment with Theo's children.

'Unfortunately, they don't have any divine fox...' Theo regretted it a little. He wanted to give another divine lineage to Yuki; she already had the lineage of the Divine Phoenix, but that doesn't stop him from wanting more.

Walking the streets like a lone wolf, Saint Monica had no idea she was being followed. Then, suddenly, she realizes that everything around her starts to change, the people around her are gone, and she was alone on the planet.

"Show yourself!" She said without fear.

Mystically, Theo appeared not far from her.

_ _

Name: Monica

Race: Divine Beast.

Species: Wolf of the Divine Moon.

Cultivation: 10th layer of Saint Realm.

_ _

"So it was you." As she spoke, she lifted her pointed chin proudly: "I kind of expected it to be, but I must say I'm surprised it's you since you've only recently moved up to Saint Realm."

"Even in this situation, you are not afraid. That is admirable." Theo smiled like he was talking to a friend.

"Oh? Why should I be?" She laughed, "Hahaha! You are a simple little fox who has just seen the world; I, on the other hand, am a powerful 10th Layer Saint. There's no way I can fear you~."

Crossing her arms, she looked lazily at Theo.

The disdain in her eyes couldn't be hidden.

"Mm, of the divine beings I killed, you are the least afraid." Theo smiled coldly, "Not that I can blame you; maybe having a high level of Cultivation made you believe you're invincible."

Theo clapped his hands and smiled coldly, "All right, I'll give you a chance. If you can survive for an hour, you can consider this my loss."

"Fool, that's my line~" She hissed, "Someone weak like you isn't-"

Theo disappeared and then reappeared in front of her.

*BOOOM!*

Like the back cover of a full-speed truck, Theo's left fist slammed into the pit of her stomach.

*Whoosh!*

Looking like a cannonball, she was launched through the air miles away; in midair, she vomited blood, then she stabilized.

A skeptical look passed in her eyes, unable to believe what happened.

'That weak fox actually hit me?' It was revolting just thinking about it, but everything was very clear. There was only her and Theo in the place; obviously, he was the one who hit her. The presence of any other life was absent.

Her eyes turned red as she gritted her teeth.

"Damn it!!"

She screams as she flies at great speed, seeming to teleport towards Theo.

Her hand turns into a gigantic blue wolf claw. Then, covering the sky and creating shadow, she attacks with all her strength using ice affinity.

*Boom!*

One of Theo's tails came out from behind him and confronted Monica's claw. Sound waves causing an intense explosion of space-time breaking it into pieces like glass, the clash between the two hits ended with a winner.

Although Theo's feet sank a little into the ground and created a small crater, Saint Monica was sent away.

Her bones were broken, her flesh was crushed, but in a single second, everything was back to normal; soon, Saint Monica transformed into a gigantic lunar wolf. It was blue, and as it was spherical, it looked like a moon with its tail surrounding it; after it got to all fours, stepping in the air, it runs, heading towards Theo at an overwhelming speed!

*ROARR!!*

Her roar, a mixture of howl and roar, was loud and menacing; her fangs were sharp, her claws gigantic with a span of 200 meters.

"Fox, son of a worm..." She screamed, "Die!"

Theo listened in silence and raised his eyebrows with a smile. Then, lifting his chin and looking at her, his tails turned into gigantic hands and began to move toward her like the tendrils of a jellyfish.
