Chapter 1049: Nirvana
Gungnir used one of his strongest moves, Lightning Judgment. The moment his fist met with the dragon\'s breath, his entire body felt numb. Some unknown energy which he assumed was the Slayer Energy entered his body in the clash. Then the lightning in his right hand burst out, exploding along with the dragon\'s breath. He and the dragon monster were engulfed by the explosion.However, the force that fought him back suddenly disappeared. His fist went through and touched something hard at the end of it. Gungnir could not see what happened because of the blinding explosion, but he was sure that his fist touched the dragon scale.
Gungnir stayed in the air, waiting for the explosion to die down. He did not dare to make any reckless move with his limited mana. A few minutes passed as the impact of the clash calmed down, and he finally got to see the monster once more. His fist touched the dragon\'s snout, and he discovered that the dragon had suffered no injuries from the early clash.
\'I am f*cked!\' Gungnir thought the dragon would kill him for sure in the next moment. He could still feel the strong aura radiating from the dragon; he failed to kill the dragon within that single attack. He thought of escaping, but then he noticed something. The wing crumbled like dust, not his wing but the dragon\'s.
It started from the wing and slowly spread to the body. Gungnir stared with his enlarged eyes, not expecting it would end like this. Not when the dragon still radiated a strong life force. He was sure that the dragon was still alive with such a strong life force.
"I killed him," Gungnir muttered in a low voice.
He won the battle, but he felt like he had lost the fight. In the following moment, he witnessed the dragon crumble into dust, getting swept by the wind and disappearing completely. With his mana depleted, his body returned to normal. He still had four stab wounds from earlier, and blood still flowed because of the Slayer Energy.
At this moment, he felt the real impact of the clash. His head felt cold; there was residual cold energy. Not just the cold, but his belly was also in heat. The burning sensation hurt him and the organs inside his body. Without him realizing it, blood flowed out of his nose. The trickling cold blood touched his lips, and then he tasted the blood on his tongue.
"I have to get back soon…." Gungnir coughed blood mid-air. He wiped the blood and rushed toward Windra. He had his lightning to form a barrier around Windra before sending his death blow to Tang Shaoyang. The barrier protected his friend from the impact.
Gungnir carried his friend and flew toward the crack in the sky. Staying longer in his current condition was the same as suicide. The next Divine Lightning would kill him for sure. Windra stayed silent while being carried, but he made sure to observe the battlefield before leaving the tower through the crack.
Windra was in a state of disbelief that a mere Ancient Rank would drag the battle to this extent. He had to admit that they were at fault for underestimating Tang Shaoyang, but still, it was so absurd that the Ancient Rank could fight the God Rank with the transformation.
"I am glad that we detected him earlier and killed him. I don\'t dare to imagine how strong he would become once he reached that Legend Rank or even Demi-God Rank. He might even kill us." Windra spoke in a low voice as they entered the crack.
As soon as the two God Ranks entered the crack, the giant crack in the sky disappeared. Everything in the sky returned to normal, but the devastating battlefield would remain.

Nirvana
Gungnir successfully brought Windra back with him. However, as soon as his feet touched the marble floor, he lost all his energy and fell. He coughed up so hard as his chest tightened up. The cold and the heat met in his chest, causing him hard to breathe. Blood kept coming out of his nose. As it happened, Slayer Energy wreaked havoc inside him.
"Pathetic!" A cold voice rang in the air. "Give them the Divine Potion!"
Two people came over and fed Gungnir and Windra the Divine Potion. The Divine Potion was a potion made by Nirvana, the highest grade potion made by the God Rank. Gungnir\'s condition stabilized after drinking the potion while Windra\'s injuries were healed. However, Gungnir\'s condition was worse than Windra\'s even after drinking the Divine Potion.
Windra got up and knelt toward the five figures in front of him. Gungnir and Windra were in a hall, a vast hall where at the end of it, there were five figures sitting on the throne. The five figures were the leader of Nirvana, the God King. It was not an official rank from the system but the title for the leader of Nirvana, the God Alliance. The five figures were the strongest God Rank in the Nirvana Alliance.
"You lose to a mere Ancient Rank? Three God Ranks got heavily injured by a mere Ancient Rank?" The cold voice questioned Windra and Gungnir. Even though both managed to kill Tang Shaoyang and returned alive, it was still a loss. Three God Ranks came back injured after hunting a mere Ancient Rank. That was a humiliation for Nirvana.
"We apologize, Your Majesty," Windra responded. Meanwhile, Gungnir was struggling to get into a kneeling position.
"Explain yourself!"
"First, we are underestimating the Divine Lightning. I thought I could hold myself against two Divine Lightning at the same time, but the seventh wave of Divine Lightning was too strong. The second issue is we have so little information about our target…."
"Don\'t make an excuse for yourself!" The cold voice cut Windra\'s voice midway. Before the cold voice continued, an annoyed yet lazy voice cut off. "Can\'t you let him speak, Lavanus? You told him to explain, yet you didn\'t give him the time to explain. What do you want? Continue, Windra."
"We have little information about our target. The only information we have is that the target only possesses Slayer Energy. But Slayer Energy was not the only issue. He is also a Spirit Contractor, and he has a strong Spirit, Angel of Death with Void Energy…. I am not sure myself, but Gungnir was the one who fought Tang Shaoyang to the end…." Windra paused and glanced at his struggling friend.
He did not mean to put his friend in a tough situation, but he just did not really know what kind of power Tang Shaoyang had.
"Come over, Gungnir!" The dignified voice came from the figure in the middle of the five God Kings. He motioned toward Gungnir, who could barely walk.
Gungnir followed the instruction and came closer to the figure in the middle. The figure then placed his hand on Gungnir\'s head. He was looking into Gungnir\'s memories. It was much faster to see the fight by himself instead of listening to the explanation. It was followed by five minutes of silence.
The figure pulled his hand from Gungnir and said in a pensive tone. "Not just a Slayer Class, but also Spirit Contractor. His spirit is the Angel of Death for sure, and it was the Demi-God Rank Angel of Death…. He has a second talent which I don\'t know of, and he has a dragon bloodline…."
"The Abyss lied to us?" The figure with a cold voice responded in disbelief.
"We don\'t know yet. The Abyss also may have limited information on this Tang Shaoyang. Regardless, it\'s good that we eliminated him earlier. Or else this figure would become a big threat to the Gods!" The figure in the middle waved his hand at Windra and Gungnir. "Good work you two. Go back and get some rest. Give them the best treatment we have!"
"We thank you, Your Majesty!" Gungnir and Windra put their heads to the floor before leaving with the two persons who brought them the potion, leaving the five God Kings.
"I agree to meet the Abyss to confirm this. If they purposely hid the extra information from us, that meant they were targeting us. They want to humiliate Nirvana, and I will not be the Abyss alone for doing that!" The figure in the middle disappeared from the seat afterward, followed by the other four figures.

Meanwhile, the chaos spiraled after the executioner knights attacked Tang Shaoyang outside the city. Zhang Mengyao deployed the Tang Empire\'s strongest force and confronted the Divine Church.
Marshal Alton and Moonsong, facing the three hundred Holy Knights that were about to return after the exploration. The two strongest figures after Tang Shaoyang; are the two Legend Ranks.
They were weaker than Tang Shaoyang, but it was before they got the second class and also the talent. Now they had the talent and also the second class from the smart base, making them much stronger than before.
"What\'s the meaning of this?" The leader of the Holy Knight questioned Moonsong and Marshal Alton. He was unaware of what happened between his faction and the Tang Empire. He did not know that his faction attacked the Emperor of the Tang Empire. They returned earlier from their expedition because the sky suddenly split, but they were welcomed by two bloodthirsty figures radiating a strong killing intent.
