Chapter 244 - Sword of Prayer

From the current battle, the gap between the two sides is less than tenfold.

This shows that Theresia's comprehension of the Wind Element Law is definitely above Baier's.

Baier, who possessed a territory and gained immense Mental Energy, was actually inferior to Theresia, who had no territory, in terms of understanding the laws.

This made everyone underestimate Baier a bit.

However, the facts were indeed as such.

Baier had always propagated his invincible Mental Energy within the Divine Wind Dynasty. Furthermore, when Baier proved the Dao and became an Emperor through the Wind Element Law, the Imperial Dao Law he left in the Heavenly Dao was too shallow, causing all Wind Element cultivators to feel that there was no path forward after reaching the Emperor level.

Especially after encountering opponents of the same level in the battle for territories, watching rivals who were once similar to them surpass them and enter higher, stronger realms, how could the Emperor-level powerhouses of the Wind Element still consider the Wind Element to be the most powerful law? Or that Lord Baier was the most powerful person?

The most mixed thoughts often came from those who understood Lord Baier the most deeply, which was, ironically, the case.

As for Theresia, although he lost his territory after losing the Divine Wind Dynasty, he also gained a considerable amount of Mental Energy from the Sun Dynasty after joining it.

Unlike the invincible Mental Energy in the Divine Wind Dynasty, the Mental Energy of the Sun Dynasty was one of admiration and anticipation for those who explored the laws of the world and created laws.

Therefore, although the Mental Energy Theresia gained in the Sun Dynasty could not compare to the Mental Energy Baier gained within the Divine Wind Dynasty's territory, it was more targeted, and this Mental Energy had a better effect on Theresia.

Although Theresia's Imperial Dao Law had not yet reached the stage of the first transformation, he had already made significant progress on the path from the Wind Element Imperial Dao Law to the Immortal Dao Law.

This allowed Theresia to be at a disadvantage in his battle with Baier, but it wasn't a completely one-sided affair, and he still had the strength to resist.

Although he didn't seem to have any chance of winning, Baier would need to completely deplete the law power within Theresia before he could achieve a complete victory.

However, for Theresia to dare to confront Baier directly, did he truly only have such limited trump cards?

If he wanted to die, this wasn't the way to do it, right?

Thus, although Baier was dominating Theresia on the surface, every powerhouse watching carefully scrutinized Theresia, wanting to see what capabilities he possessed to turn the tide.

...

"Rumble..."

"Boom!"

On countless planets within the Divine Wind Dynasty's territory, the people felt the powerful pressure emanating from the sky and trembled.

Looking at the cosmic starry sky from the planets, they could occasionally see beautiful fireworks.

However, except for the young and naive children, almost all living beings on the planets knew that those beautiful fireworks were likely fragments of stars from their own planets collapsing due to the battle between the two great beings.

Those gorgeous meteor showers were the fragments of stars that had not yet completely disintegrated.

People in other territories were fine; they treated it as a spectacle.

But the people within the Divine Wind Dynasty were all on tenterhooks, fearing that the two individuals fighting in the universe would approach the planets they lived on.

At that time, if the planets could not withstand the aftermath of the battle between Lord Baier and Lord Theresia, they would only face destruction.

Within the range of the two individuals' battle, even Emperor-level powerhouses could only resign themselves to fate and pray that the aftershocks of their battle would not spread to their side.

However, amidst this panic, there were still some people working hard.

These people were almost all cultivators.

Wherever they went, they would scatter countless flyers and then rush to the next place with inhabitants.

Those who received the flyers, upon seeing the content, had their pupils contract. Then, disregarding their worries, they immediately took their wives and children home and silently prayed for Lord Theresia according to the content of the flyers.

Mysterious altars were erected on countless planets.

The moment these altars were completed, the Mental Energy generated by the prayers of the people on those planets no longer scattered but flowed towards the altars.

The formless, colorless Mental Energy converged in the very center of the altars, condensing into a drop of golden liquid.

After the birth of this golden drop of liquid, immense pressure radiated throughout the entire planet.

From this pressure, one could also feel the prayers from countless people's hearts.

These prayers were exceptionally pure.

Perhaps only the current situation could allow everyone's Mental Energy and prayers to reach such a level.

Because these Mental Energy and prayers shared a single wish:

They wanted to live.

They wanted to live, and they wanted their wives and children, husbands and children, parents, siblings, to all live.

These were prayers for survival!

If the environment or time were different, such pure prayers could never have been gathered.

However, the changes on these planets went unnoticed.

Those who were watching only focused on Theresia, wanting to see how he would turn the tables.

But no one could have imagined that Theresia's backup plan was not on himself at all, but on the countless planets within the Divine Wind Dynasty's territory.

On these unobserved planets, strands of extremely pure Mental Energy were absorbed into the altars on the planets, and countless prayers containing the same Mental Energy condensed into drops of golden Mental Energy liquid within the altars.

In the cosmic starry sky, Theresia and Baier had been fighting for dozens of days, and no less than a hundred thousand stars had been shattered by the aftermath of their battle.

Among these, while most were desolate stars, there were also some inhabited planets, and the number of living beings killed by the two of them in these days was no less than hundreds of millions.

After ten days of fighting, Theresia's right arm had exploded, and half of its chest was gone, revealing half of its heart.

A dense surge of Law power flowed, and Theresia's injuries quickly healed. However, its aura also dropped significantly.

"Boom!"

This time, Baier and Theresia's clash sent Theresia flying.

A long sword left a sword mark on Theresia.

"Theresia, you don't have much Law power left, do you?"

Baier looked at the blood on his sword tip. Green light flowed, directly obliterating the blood, which contained a powerful aura.

"When your Law power is exhausted, that will be the time of your execution."

"Heh heh..."

Theresia chuckled. "Unfortunately, you won't live to see that day."

"What?"

Upon hearing Theresia's words, not only Baier but everyone else's Spiritual Sense focused intently on Theresia.

Was Theresia's contingency plan about to be revealed?

"Come!"

Theresia opened its arms. Within the territory of the Divine Wind Dynasty, on countless life-bearing planets, drop after drop of golden water rose from altars, transforming into streaks of golden light that shot into the vast Universe.

"What? What is this?"

The anomalies on countless life-bearing planets were instantly captured by the onlookers.

At the same time, they understood what those golden drops were.

They were actually the condensed essence of the purest thoughts of billions of living beings, possessing immense power and various wondrous effects.

However, for people of their level, the power of these golden drops was only comparable to the strength of the Law power condensed by their own Heavenly Emperor Law.

Even with the support of this batch of Mental Energy, Theresia could at most hold on for a little longer.

Seeing this, Palhouse and the others shook their heads and withdrew their Spiritual Sense.

If this was Theresia's trump card, then Theresia was bound to lose.

"Hahahahaha, Lord Theresia, are you trying to make me die laughing?"

The moment these golden drops converged towards Theresia, Baier understood their purpose and immediately mocked loudly.

"I even saved some of my strength, fearing you might have some powerful move to resist me."

"But if this is all you have, then let me shatter these people's dreams!"

"After that, all these beings who provided you with Mental Energy and Prayer will face the judgment of the great Wind Heavenly Emperor!"

Undoubtedly, these thoughts might not be powerful enough to wound Baier significantly, but they were extremely insulting.

He was the Emperor of the Divine Wind Dynasty, the supreme God for all beings within the Divine Wind Dynasty's territory.

Yet, these beings living under his protection were willing to give their Mental Energy to Theresia instead of him?

Especially since Baier could feel the purity of the Prayer from these golden drops, which was even stronger than what he had collected over the past ten thousand years.

The Mental Energy he had collected in the past hundred years was as murky as muddy water.

What was this supposed to mean?

Giving honey to the enemy and dregs to me?

"That's truly a shame, Baier, you no longer have the chance."

Endless golden drops converged in Theresia's palm.

However, to everyone's surprise, Theresia did not absorb these thoughts into its body to recover its Law power or simply use them as Law power to expend.

Under Theresia's control, these golden Mental Energy condensed into a golden long sword, with endless golden halos swirling around this golden Sword of Prayer.

"Baier, you simply don't understand people's hearts."

"In your view, those billions of beings are like ants."

"Yet you don't know that even ants can possess the power to overturn the heavens!"

With that, Theresia transformed into a streak of green light and attacked Baier.

"Hmph, ants are just ants. Let's see me cut down your heaven-overturning power!"

Baier remained indifferent to Theresia's words and did not evade. The long sword in his hand condensed powerful Law power, and he slashed down with a roar.

"Chii!"

Baier's sword struck Theresia's abdomen. Endless Law power erupted, causing streaks of blood to fly from Theresia's abdomen.

Meanwhile, the golden long sword in Theresia's hand also struck Baier.
