"Sun Monarch?"

To his surprise, the Sun Monarch found that the Mortal before him not only showed no fear or panic, but a hint of impatience appeared on his face instead.

"Even if it's to give your believers a little sweetness, is there a need to dawdle so much?"

Lin Yue frowned, put down his teacup, and slightly shook his head, "Putting on quite the airs, an ordinary Proving existence, truly thinking himself a Divine?"

As soon as the words "Proving existence" came out, the Sun Monarch's expression changed slightly.

He naturally knew he wasn't a true Divine who controlled the Earth Authority, it was only due to the rules of Yanfu World that he became a so-called god who answers prayers.

The Proving existences of the Yanfu World, relying on belief, all regard themselves as Divine, how could this Mortal before him possibly know?!

What he couldn't understand most was the other's attitude.

—He is just a Mortal, why dare he speak to him so boldly and presumptuously?

"Who are you exactly…"

The Sun Monarch stared at Lin Yue, his thoughts churning, while his Divine Thought also spread out.

Fortunately, he had anticipated that today might not go smoothly and had prepared in advance to guard against local Divine from East Continent intervening.

Meanwhile, his Divine Thought observed Lin Yue.

But he realized, the other party was really just a Mortal.

Was he merely bluffing?

"Ignorant Mortal."

The Sun Monarch's eyes blazed with flames as fierce as the sun, a terrifying pressure spreading around, "Give you a chance, summon the Divine behind you."

"Getting into character, aren't you?" Lin Yue gave a wry smile.

Then, he shook his head lightly and, with a casual grab, a translucent Battle Saber appeared in his hand, in which a misty Chaos could be seen slowly swirling.

"Hm?"

Seeing this, the Sun Monarch's face changed immediately, "Could it be… a Divine Artifact?"

Those Proving existences that had come from the Ancient World with difficulty couldn't bring Divine Artifacts with them, only their own forged Semi-Divine Artifacts, completely merged with Divine Soul, could be brought!

And this Mortal before him had actually summoned a Divine Artifact ahead of time?

No wonder this Mortal was so calm facing him!

A Divine Artifact, even without descending its True Body, as long as it borrows the power of the Divine behind it to activate the Divine Artifact, it's already fearless against him.

"Boom!"

The Sun Monarch suddenly made his move, his terrifying power accompanied by flames erupted outright, enveloping the Mortal before him in an attempt to turn him directly into ash!

Even though Proving warriors face great limitations, a mere Mortal would hardly have time to react.

But—

The misty Battle Saber moved slightly, and an invisible, Chaos-filled Sword Intent burst forth, instantly enveloping Lin Yue completely.

The pure golden flames had been refined to the extreme, concentrating the terrible power capable of burning down a city to a single point without any waste, not even damaging the courtyard in the slightest, but still completely blocked by the Sword Intent, not harming Lin Yue at all.

The Sun Monarch's expression changed.

He knew that just by himself, the Mortal before him couldn't possibly have time to activate the Divine Artifact, it must be the Divine behind him manipulating the Divine Artifact.

As expected of a Divine Artifact, clearly an offensive one, yet it could also protect this Mortal.

"Attacking me, a Mortal, with a sudden strike?"

Lin Yue shook his head slightly, then the Battle Sabar floated up in his hand, and with a slash through the air, he struck at the Sun Monarch.

A terrible slash of grey mist burst forth.

"Boom!"

Where the slash passed, the Void collapsed, Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire faintly emerged, carrying a whiff of unexplained Chaos as it swept over the Sun Monarch.

The Sun Monarch's armor shattered altogether, flames rolled, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his whole body thrown out like a shooting star, flying directly towards the sky, tracing a fiery line through the air.

"Hm?"

At the same time, various Contractors watching the Divine Descent near Yihai City noticed this scene too.

Many Contractors had already asked for the power of perception observation from the Divine in order to gather intelligence.

They also noticed the burst of Sword Light inside Yihai City, and the Sun Monarch being blown out with his armor shattered.

"How… how is this possible…"

"That Sword Light is the same technique Lin Yue used to counter Divine Hand last time, isn't it?"

"How could it be… the Sun Monarch was blasted out of Yihai City by a single slash?"

"There was no Divine True Body descending, how did he do this…"

"A single slash severely injures the Sun Monarch?"

"This...This is just like the Divine of the Star Sky Mother Goddess, isn't it?"

Contractors from various factions were shocked as they witnessed this scene.

It was rumored that during an internal dispute within the West Continent Church, the Pope of the Star Sky Church had merely summoned the Star Sky Scepter of the Star Sky Mother Goddess, and it suppressed the True Body of the Thunder Church's Thunder Supreme summoned!

This is the vast difference between Divines.

And now, Lin Yue, summoning some unknown god, was actually able to do this?

"Great Lord..."

"Impossible..."

The Pope of the Sun Church also looked on in a daze, "Could the god Lin Yue worships be comparable to the Star Sky Mother Goddess?"

The Star Sky Church is undoubtedly the strongest church in the West Continent.

It's solely because the Star Sky Mother Goddess is terrifying!

"It's good that the Great Lord instructed me to contact the Death Sect earlier..." this thought crossed his mind, and he felt reassured.

High above in the sky, the Sun Monarch, transformed into a blazing line of fire, desperately pushed his power until he finally stopped.

With his Divine Thought, he naturally understood that he had embarrassed himself in front of many watching mortals.

"Damned mortals..."

The Sun Monarch's face was ice-cold, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes, and his Divine Thought immediately flew towards a forest on the other side of Yihai City.

There, a group of mortals dressed in black robes, clearly church clerics, were praying.

The one leading them wore a black robe with strange dark golden patterns, indicating his identity— he was indeed the Pope of the Death Sect, one of the top three leaders of the West Continent Church!

In an instant, the majestic voice of the Sun Monarch echoed:

"Immediately summon the True God of Death."

...

Lin Yue was still sitting in the courtyard, but his Divine Thought had already diffused through his True Body.

"Just like that... quick, descend in your True Body."

There was a hint of expectation in his eyes, "Just the Sun Monarch is far from enough..."

The next moment—

The sky suddenly darkened, an endless black fog spread across the Heavenly Dome, as if gathering all the dark mists into heavy clouds, obscuring the sun.

The world was deathly silent, as if everything was about to meet its end and obliteration.

Silently, a figure in a Black Robe appeared in mid-air, rendering the dreadfully silent oppression of heaven and earth even more intense.

"True God of Death..."

"It's the True God of Death! Did the Death Sect come here quietly?"

"Could it be that the Sun Monarch feared that the Divine of the East Continent would intervene, specifically asking for the True God of Death to act?"

"It's a good thing they didn't summon the Buddha Mother..."

"This... the True God of Death has also descended..."

"Lin Yue is doomed."

"Even if the Divine behind him compares to the Star Sky Mother Goddess, being alone, he likely can't even summon part of his True Body, unable to withstand the True God of Death."

"People from the West Continent are really cunning."

Contractors from all factions understood what this scene represented, and they knew the terror of the True God of Death, which was far beyond ordinary Divines.

Under the oppressive black clouds in the Heavenly Dome, the True God of Death glanced at the Sun Monarch, whose armor was shattered, and scoffed: "Ernis, you truly are in a sorry state."

The Sun Monarch's expression turned sour, but he could only pretend not to hear, merely saying deeply: "Ucino, since this mortal's Divine can compare to the Star Sky Mother Goddess, cutting off this faith is also no small feat, quickly make your move."

"Heh..."

The True God of Death chuckled softly, "Just watch..."

Just then—

A streak of light suddenly broke through the Void, accompanied by a foggy gleam of the saber, instantly sweeping past the Sun Monarch.

The Sun Monarch's body trembled, and he instantly froze.

He incredulously looked behind him, where a young man was standing in mid-air, mouth agape: "You... hiding..."

After struggling to utter a few words, he began to dissipate into flames.

Lin Yue, carrying his saber, turned to the somber-faced True God of Death, and calmly said, "Only you are left."

At the same time, the Black Moon in front of him underwent a massive transformation.
