A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 1660: 454 Reincarnate and Death’s True Meaning_2

He sensed a tremendous resistance!

Even though he exerted all his strength,

Lost Paradise only moved a little bit.

The Divine Fire of Retaliation, originally surging immensely above, had also become much weaker due to Matthew’s actions!

A massive force was pulling at Lost Paradise,

dragging it toward the center of the Heavenly Family Palace!

...

Matthew’s expression subtly changed.

The low laughter of the Twilight Angel followed:

“To awaken from the Dusk Disaster and find the correct strategy in time, you really are not fated to die.”

“Now, while things haven’t reached a point of no return, leave Lost Paradise early and preserve yourself!”

“This is the wisest decision; if you wish to save everyone or still harbor the delusion of ascension, then all that awaits you is downfall!”

“Haven’t you realized?”

“Lost Paradise has been captured by the force fields produced during the destruction of the Heavenly Family Palace, and your companions are all unconscious, you alone can’t lift Lost Paradise to a safe place…”

“Let it be destroyed! Let it be destroyed!”

“The Days of Heavenly Change have arrived; the Earth will tear apart, and the oceans will roll back into the sky.

In some places, the land stretches barren for thousands of miles, and the seasons bring no water;

in other places, it will rain heavily for hundreds of years!

Yet, the physical tearing is merely a harbinger of the catastrophe.

When the giant beasts ignite their nest flames and flap their wings, the cosmic-level winds and fire will tear apart most planes;

ultimately, the void.

When the void arrives, everything will be swallowed.

Life and death will have no distinction then.

If so,

there is no difference between dying sooner or later…”

“Perish together with this grand Heavenly Family Palace, you pitiful new gods…”

As the Twilight Angel spoke, he began chanting a solemn and ancient ballad.

The other angels joined in the chanting.

The ballad seemed to herald the arrival of the apocalypse.

As the song began,

Matthew saw pillars of light shooting up from every mountaintop within the space of the Heavenly Family Palace.

Around the pillars, copious amounts of lava and black smoke burst forth.

The divine palaces atop the mountains all collapsed.

Swarms of black holes, like gravitational vortices, instantly formed.

The vortices and pillars of light tore at the surrounding material plane.

Much of the material was thereby annihilated!

At that moment,

the entire Heavenly Family Palace emitted a painful moan, the countless trillions of lives that once left traces in this space echoed in wailing resonance!

Without a sound,@@novelbin@@

the plaza where the angels were gathered was swallowed by a massive pillar of light.

This space, like a beautiful landscape painting,

was being torn bit by bit, shredded by that irresistible force,

and then fell!

Matthew quietly stood within Lost Paradise, observing the destruction of the Heavenly Family Palace.

This perspective and feeling were quite peculiar.

Although it was exploding fiercely outside, he, being in Lost Paradise, felt detached,

like an observer in a space station witnessing the destruction of a planet.

It was a feeling of being completely detached from the world.

Of course, this feeling was an illusion.

Because Lost Paradise had been re-entangled by the numerous gravitational vortices of the Heavenly Family Palace and was moving toward destruction.

Although in that moment,

Matthew experienced many subtle and profound feelings.

Yet he still had to try controlling the authority simultaneously, dodging the torn areas of the Heavenly Family Palace as much as possible while desperately searching for an escape strategy.

As the Twilight Angel had said,

he himself could run, after all, he was just a demigod now, not fully bound with Lost Paradise, running fast could mostly save him.

But Matthew wanted to try again.

Having painstakingly found Lost Paradise, serendipitously acquired the Divine King Authority, and endured the spine-chilling Dusk Disaster,

he did not want to give up so easily.

Soon,

Matthew had clarified the most fundamental predicament and two potential strategies.

The real predicament was—

The other four were affected by the Dusk Disaster; they were unable to provide mental power, mana, or other forms of energy to support the Divine King Authority.

More importantly,

their Divine Fire had thus become uncontrollable!

Although Matthew could control the flight trajectory of Lost Paradise,

he couldn’t control their Divine Fire.

And Divine Fire played a crucial role on the Ascension Path of Lost Paradise!

This was also the fundamental reason Matthew didn’t drive away any of the other four after obtaining the authority!

He needed their Divine Fire!

The Divine Fire inside Lost Paradise was the lever to manipulate external fire energy.

While all five were conscious,

Matthew could manipulate more than five times the Ascension Power.

Now it wasn’t possible.

Relying solely on his own Gordon’s Fire, let alone escaping the Heavenly Family Palace,

even if the Heavenly Family Palace was no longer falling, he had no way to guide it to a higher place!

“There are only two strategies then.”

“First, try all means to awaken them.”

“Second, find a way to temporarily control their Divine Fire on your own!”

However, both strategies face extremely severe challenges.

Divine Fire is a very dominant and exclusionary super energy.

Gordon’s Fire can neutralize some of the Divine Fire but struggles to control them.

The Divine King Authority actually has some suppressive force and direct control over the other four’s Divine Fire.

Given the current state,

Matthew was confident he could temporarily borrow the Divine Fire of one or two others.

Any more and he definitely couldn’t handle it.

But to escape the afflicted areas of the Heavenly Family Palace, he needed the Divine Fire of all four others!
