Chapter 484: Absolute Power of Destruction
Uchiha Dali left a clone in place, while his true body vanished into the void.
His clone used the God-Level Sealing Technique: Absorption Seal on the incoming gray-white spikes.
Moments later, the two forces collided.
Originally, the Absorption Seal could swallow any form of attack. But this time, it clearly failed to absorb the Grand Priest's destructive strike.
The gray-white spikes effortlessly pierced through the barrier created by the seal and obliterated the clone in an instant.
Seeing this scene, Uchiha Dali—who had reappeared behind the Grand Priest—looked solemn.
Just a single exchange was enough for him to confirm two crucial points:
First, his earlier suspicion was correct.
The Grand Priest's attack did indeed contain a power capable of erasing all things.
Even a god—one whose body stood at Dali's current level—couldn't withstand it.
His clone had the exact same strength as his main body. And yet it was destroyed instantly.
Second, the God-Level Absorption Seal could not absorb the Grand Priest's attack.
That power seemed to be something that had transcended ordinary divine techniques—a force that had evolved far beyond the common realm of sacred abilities.
One defining trait of that power was that it could not be absorbed or reflected.
The only way to deal with it was either to take the hit directly, or counter with an equally comparable force to cancel it out.
There was no other option.
"Although my clone didn't counterattack because I wanted to test your ability… I have to admit, you really surprised me."
Uchiha Dali's voice sounded from behind.
The Grand Priest calmly turned to face him.
"Your speed surprised me as well."
"But that doesn't change the outcome—I must defeat you here."
As he spoke, the Grand Priest struck again.
With a raise of his hand, three more gray-white spikes shot forth at terrifying speed.
Anyone else would have had no chance of dodging.
But Uchiha Dali possessed instantaneous teleportation—space-time movement that did not rely on sensing another target's presence.
That was the only reason he was able to avoid the strike in the first instant.
If he had needed to sense a target first before teleporting—like the usual type of Instant Transmission—then even he would only have had one option: take the attack head-on.
No other method would have worked.
After the first exchange, the Grand Priest's tempo became much more aggressive.
Even though Uchiha Dali evaded with Super Flying Thunder God Jutsu, the three gray-white spikes did not disappear. Instead, they suddenly redirected, locking onto him and chasing relentlessly.
Just like guided missiles—they had tracking properties.
Wherever Uchiha Dali fled, the spikes would follow.
After trying several evasive maneuvers, he realized there was no way to lose them.
So he stopped running.
Turning sharply, he unleashed a barrage of fist shadows at the three incoming spikes.
It was the God-Level Eight Thousand Divine Sky Strikes.
One of the ultimate techniques he had personally created—an absolute attack that crushed everything.
Once released, the attack was unavoidable. The opponent could only withstand or counter it.
This technique also carried an overwhelming destructive force rivalling the Grand Priest's.
BOOOOOOM—!!
Their attacks collided in the void.
A massive explosion erupted—like the birth of a new universe.
Moments later, the Grand Priest's attacks vanished.
Meanwhile, most of Uchiha Dali's Eight Thousand Divine Sky Strikes remained and continued surging toward the Grand Priest.
Faced with this overwhelming wall of force, the Grand Priest's expression finally shifted—deep caution appeared in his eyes.
His gaze hardened and he quickly retreated.
Then he drew a circle before himself.
Instantly, a gate of void opened.
Uchiha Dali's attack—the massive torrent of destruction—was inexplicably pulled into that pitch-black vortex with terrifying suction.
Watching it disappear, Uchiha Dali's eyes widened slightly.
"That move… absorbed my attack?"
His worldview shifted.
Something even he couldn't do—the Grand Priest did so effortlessly.
As expected of the one who stood above all angels—his capability was extraordinary.
Both impressed and intrigued, Uchiha Dali asked, "What do you call that technique?"
The Grand Priest's gaze remained alert.
He knew Uchiha Dali was no ordinary opponent.
With an unnatural level of talent and power equal to his own—if Uchiha Dali understood the principle behind his techniques, the consequences would be unimaginable.
So the Grand Priest calmly responded:
"You seem to have forgotten— we are enemies. Mortal enemies do not share knowledge."
"That's true."
Uchiha Dali didn't object.
He then lifted his hand and imitated the Grand Priest's motion, attempting to create a similar void gate.
He failed.
But he didn't stop—he tried again immediately.
His persistence made the Grand Priest narrow his eyes.
"…I've heard of your ability."
The Grand Priest finally spoke.
"That's right. I'm learning it now. I believe it won't take long before I master your technique."
Uchiha Dali admitted openly.
His monstrous comprehension had long ceased to be a secret.
He had mentioned it himself countless times.
The Grand Priest—ruler of the angels, servant to Zeno, and a being whose existence spanned countless eras—knowing his secret was nothing surprising.
So there was nothing to hide.
"Such impossible comprehension…."
The Grand Priest's expression darkened.
His instincts told him that Uchiha Dali's talent was not natural.
But as for what it was—he could not determine.
Of course, he could not simply stand there and watch Dali study his technique.
So without hesitation, he lunged forward—not with another destructive ability, but with raw physical combat.
Uchiha Dali chuckled lightly.
In the next instant, countless clones appeared around him.
Perfect replicas—same energy, same capabilities.
As if their terrifying power came from another dimension entirely.
Meanwhile, the original Uchiha Dali stepped out of the battlefield and watched as though enjoying a performance.
The instant his clones appeared, dozens of them charged the Grand Priest at once.
On the surface, it looked as if the Grand Priest had instantly fallen into a dangerous disadvantage.
His situation seemed dire.
