Chapter 1592: Chapter 1592: A Heavy Blow
In the divine land, the Great Dominance Technique was a Godly Way that focused on the cultivation of one's soul.
It strengthened one's soul and improved the intimidation from their aura.
However, there was a prerequisite for the cultivation of the Great Dominance Technique—one's soul should reach the realm of Gold Fighting Soul. At the same time, one should also master the Emperor Soul Imprint.
Holy Jay didn't guide Zen in the mastery of Godly Way.
Zen needed to comprehend the Godly Way and condense the Godly Tile by himself. Only by doing so could the Godly Way be the most suitable for him.
Both Holy Jay and Holy Drew thought that Zen's Emotion Closing Godly Way was not the best choice. However, what was most crucial was that Zen should make the decision himself, and they should not interfere!
Additionally, Zen had obtained the Emperor Soul Imprint. He already had the precondition to cultivate the Great Dominance Technique. All that was left was for him to take a step forward.
Maha had also obtained his Emperor Soul Imprint in the Divine Refinement Forbidden Land.
Maha seemed to have a good comprehension of the Great Dominance Technique. The aura he released was mighty and hard to resist. Even the grand world lords found it hard to confront Maha. The aura from him was powerful enough that it could also affect the state of minds of Supreme Lords.
Although every Supreme Lord had the Gold Fighting Soul, they didn't possess the Emperor Soul Imprint. As a result, they found it hard to resist Maha's dominant aura.
Zen, on the other hand, had the Emperor Soul Imprint. Thus, the Great Dominance Technique barely affected him. Even after he heard Maha roar, he was rather calm. He also delivered a sly smile on his face.
The intimidation from Maha's aura continued to grow even worse. Golden light shone in his eyes as his soul power spread to the extreme.
However, doubt could be seen in his golden eyes. How could Zen be unmoved by his Great Dominance Technique? A disturbed expression formed on Maha's face.
Connie lay in Maha's arms and looked at Zen below. A curious look painted her delicate face.
She had seen Maha perform the Great Dominance Technique before. When the Sacred race first attacked the Evolutionary Universe, Maha had fought against six world lords of the Humanity Alliance alone. After he applied the Great Dominance Technique, those world lords' minds were all affected, and they had no will to resist. They had been easily killed by Maha. If Maha wanted them to surrender, he could do it quickly. However, it would be meaningless since normal world lords were of no use to Maha.
Back then, Maha had dealt with the six world lords with ease. However, with the current situation, Connie could feel Maha was very serious. He must have viewed Zen as a worthy enemy.
Yet, why was Zen not affected at all? Was his soul made of stone? How could he be unmoved by Maha's dominant aura?
Connie pouted her lips. Worry could be seen from her eyes. With the ineffectiveness of Maha's Great Dominance Technique, she thought Zen made Maha lose face.
Maha roared several times and demanded Zen to surrender. However, Zen ignored the threats. When his patience grew thin, Maha frowned and took out a Roaring Token.
The Roaring Token in the Evolutionary Universe could amplify one's voice and expand it to the whole universe. That voice could directly enter people's minds. Because the voice directly went into people's mind with the Law of Causality, no one could resist it. Moreover, it had an added effect on Maha's Great Dominance Technique. The combination would help him dominate the concentration of his opponents.
Ever since Maha obtained his first Roaring Token, he became aware of its value. However, he hadn't used it to amplify his Great Dominance Technique before.
Buzz!
When he activated the Roaring Token, Maha's powerful voice spread out again and reached every corner of the universe.
“Zen, surrender now!”
All the creatures in the Evolutionary Universe were able to hear Maha's declaration. Immediately, they became hopeful when they heard Zen's name.
“Zen? Is he back?”
“Where is he? Is it true?”
“Have the Godly Geniuses truly returned?”
It turned out that many creatures in the Evolutionary Universe awaited the return of the Godly Geniuses. Their cries were full of hope as they heard the name of Zen. ṚἈ𐌽Ȱ𝐛Ёꞩ
Most creatures already grew quite pessimistic and believed that the human race couldn't block the invasion of the Sacred race. They feared the whole universe would eventually be destroyed by the Sacred race. However, a small glimmer of expectation still lingered in their hearts.
They still had the Celestial Position race, the three major forces of the human race and many Supreme Lords. Hope could still be felt through their army. The Godly Geniuses were still seen as the trump card of the universe. Zen and the others were the ones who would lead the world of chaos.
In these three years, the Sacred race had expanded in the universe at an incredible speed. Their invasion was unstoppable.
The Humanity Alliance had lost one supreme world after another. They had retreated to the territory of the Thoughtless Minds. Other than the elite warriors of the Humanity Alliance, their forces had been already depleted by the Sacred race.
No one dared to be optimistic in such a dire situation. Despair had started to affect everyone.
They could only expect miracles.
Maha's voice, which contained the Law of Causality, irresistibly penetrated Zen's mind.
If Zen fought against Maha's Great Dominance Technique by shielding his voice, this move of Maha would have some effect. However, Zen only relied on his own soul strength to resist the suppression of Maha.
Since Maha used the Roaring Token, Zen decided to use his own Roaring Token as well.
With a flick of his fingers, two tokens jumped into Zen's hands. He gathered his focus towards the tokens.
One was the Roaring Token. The other was the token of mountain which could allow him to get into the fairy palace.
His pupils also twinkled, even brighter than Maha's under the golden glow. Confidence and pride could be seen in Zen's smile.
Maha's aura was that of a tyrant. Violence and harsh temperament flowed through it.
However, Zen's aura was completely different. His soul was upright, together with the admirable authority of an emperor. It made him comparable to the hope of a dynasty. If Maha was a tyrant, then Zen was a wise emperor.
Zen's aura rose to the sky. He didn't cultivate the Great Dominance Technique, but the power of his soul that erupted then was no less than Maha's. The two auras clashed, even though the two were still far apart.
“Maha, you are from the fake Sacred race. You don't have a noble bloodline. How dare you make me surrender to you? Ha-ha! That's ridiculous. Maha, who do you think you are?”
As he spoke, Zen also activated his Roaring Token. As a result, the whole universe heard his insults towards Maha.
After she was exposed to Zen's aura, Connie in Maha's arms suddenly felt tightness in her chest and shortness of breath. Her mind grew disoriented while her face turned pale. The expression on her face showed how badly she was affected by Zen's aura.
'I can't believe this! His soul is no weaker than Maha's. How's that possible? What is he?!' she thought.
At this moment, even Maha and the two Supreme Lords of the Sacred race behind him found it hard to believe. Their eyes gawked with surprise and wariness against Zen.
“Gold Fighting Soul! Emperor Soul Imprint! You...” Maha was at a loss for words. The expression on his face had grown even bitter.
“Hahaha!”
Zen laughed out loud. Under the influence of the Emperor Soul Imprint, his heart was also filled with great heroism, which was completely different from his usual introverted temperament. In a big and brave voice, he said, “There are 130 people who have obtained the complete Emperor Soul Imprint in the Divine Soul Ancestral Land of the Soul Seal race! You, Maha, the number one Godly Genius in the Sacred race, is only ranked 80th among the 130 people. You didn't even achieve the average rank! But I, Zen, is ranked the first. Do you know your Sacred race is a fake one? You are nothing but a fraud. Even if you were from the real Sacred race, you wouldn't be able to make me surrender. The aura you possess is incomparable to mine! You are not qualified!”
“You are not qualified...”
“You are not qualified...”
Zen's voice reverberated through the whole universe. Everyone heard how he mocked Maha in such a brave voice.
At that moment, all warriors of the Sacred race had a sullen face. Their confusion was accompanied with grim expressions.
From the moment they invaded this universe, they had proclaimed that they were the descendants of the Sacred race. They established that they were the purest, the oldest and the most perfect race in the divine land.
All the other creatures were supposed to be beneath them.
However, Zen proclaimed that their Sacred race was fake. And this was true. The real Sacred race was already extinct. Moreover, the Sacred race they were from was only created by Murphy. This was the most intolerable part for the warriors of the fake Sacred race. In their eyes, Zen belittled and ridiculed the glory of their Sacred race.
Additionally, the warriors became even more shocked with Maha's ranking in the Divine Soul Ancestral Land. Bewilderment enveloped the warriors as they tried to comprehend Zen's words.
Maha was the number one Godly Genius in the Sacred race. However, Zen said that Maha was only ranked 80th in the Divine Soul Ancestral Land.
Zen even proclaimed himself as ranked number one!
Disbelief and confusion devoured the warriors' minds. They couldn't accept such an absurd truth.
The aura of Zen was unable to impact Maha at all. After all, he also had the Emperor Soul Imprint. Moreover, Maha cultivated the Great Dominance Technique. His control over the aura was more skilled and powerful than that of Zen. If Maha maintained a calm mind, Zen's aura would also be ineffective against him.
However, Zen's words struck a nerve and angered Maha.
How could Zen be ranked number one in the Divine Soul Ancestral Land? What a ridiculous thought!
Maha refused to believe Zen's crazy proclamations.
The Divine Soul Ancestral Land gathered the top talents from all of the universes. The peerless geniuses from the divine land were also invited there. Maha could accept to be listed in the top 80 since it was quite a good result. However, how could Zen get the first place? Such a result was outrageous and impossible!
“You mongrel… You are lying! How could that be possible? You don't even have any proof!” Maha retorted as he clenched his fists. Rage flowed through his murderous expression.
But at that moment, Maha forgot something. They were bickering with each other, and proof would be useless against each other.
The two warriors were in a fight of provocations and temperament. The one with a smarter mouth would win while the one who got distracted would suffer a shameful defeat. However, Maha still wanted Zen to provide proof. It was a laughable claim.
Zen still held the token of mountain in his hand. If Maha were to make a move, he would activate the token and hide in the fairy palace. After all, he was alone, while Maha had two Supreme Lords behind him. Maha himself was also a mighty warrior and more than a match for Zen. A strategic retreat for Zen at that situation would not be shameful for him.
Before he left, Zen wanted to shake the morale of Maha and the Sacred race.
“You want proof? Okay? You are ranked the 80th. The guy who is ranked 79th is named Faust Lu. The guy who is ranked 81st is called Lacy Zuo. Do you still remember them? Your power is only around the level of those two. I'm ranked first and most powerful. Rocher is ranked 3rd while Nathan is 15th. When the three of us entered the list, your ranking immediately dropped to 83rd. What a pity! A weakling like you might fall out of the list soon,” Zen said with a laugh. Mockery was explicit in his tone.
Actually, there were only a few creatures who could obtain the Emperor Soul Imprint in the Divine Soul Ancestral Land. After all these years, only a hundred or so creatures had successfully done so. It was hard to make Maha fall out of the list. His cultivation was still powerful enough to call him a worthy warrior.
However, Zen's goal was to shake the morale of Maha and the Sacred race. He exaggerated his claims to make them depressed.
