The Grand Duke's Son Is A Heretic

Chapter 563 563: 563

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and even the gods who had witnessed countless wars could not immediately react because what they had expected was something far simpler. They had thought Kael would ascend and become a demi god or at most gain power equal to a god, but what had just happened went far beyond anything they had prepared for.

That sword strike had not simply injured or destroyed.It had severed their connection to divinity itself.

For a brief moment, the battlefield fell into a strange pause as the gods processed what they had just witnessed, and that hesitation spread like a ripple across the universe.

Amidst that pause, Kael moved.

He took a step forward, and that single movement caused the void beneath him to rupture violently while waves of pressure spread outward and crushed everything in their path.

The space ahead of him warped and folded as if it could not withstand his presence.

Then—

A horrific scream echoed.

It came from deep within the battlefield as one of the gods felt their authority weaken, and that sound broke the silence completely.

At that moment, the God of Darkness and the Goddess of Light reacted together, and their expressions turned grim as they realized the situation could no longer be controlled.

They raised their hands simultaneously.

Their power surged.

Light and darkness, two absolute opposites, rose together and intertwined in a terrifying way as they formed a supreme technique that shook the foundation of the universe itself.

The sky twisted and the stars flickered.

Reality trembled.

The combined force gathered into a massive attack, and it carried such overwhelming power that even the universe itself began to destabilize under its pressure.

The attack locked onto Kael.

It descended.

"Hell… they have gone crazy," Helios shouted as he moved immediately, and his golden aura flared as he tried to stabilize the surrounding space.

Agros roared loudly, and his massive form expanded while he released draconic power to support the collapsing structure of the universe, and Hephaestus followed as molten constructs rose to reinforce reality itself.

Others moved as well.

Because if that attack was not controlled, it would destroy everything.

But Kael gnored it.

His gaze remained steady, and his hand moved slowly as he drew his sword.

Then he swung.

"Dimensional Slash… 5th form."

His voice was calm.

"Transcendental Severance."

The moment the strike was unleashed, a blade that cut through the very concept of space itself spread across the universe, and it did not remain confined to a single direction but unfolded everywhere at once as chaos followed in its wake.

The sword strike collided with the combined attack of light and darkness.

BOOOOOOOOM!

The two forces submerged into each other, and the clash created a terrifying ripple that spread across existence while reality itself began to distort uncontrollably.

The universe shook violently.

Everything went out of control.

But at the final moment—

"FREEZE!"

Asana's voice rang out sharply as she extended her hand, and her frost domain unfolded instantly.

Everything slowed down and then stopped.

The entire battlefield fell into absolute stillness as her ice spread across space and locked everything in place, freezing even the violent clash between those two overwhelming forces.

At the same time, Christina moved.

Her concealment spread like a veil, and it dissolved a part of the overwhelming power by hiding it from existence itself, reducing the impact enough to prevent total collapse.

The clash stabilized.

But only barely.

As the forces settled, another movement occurred.

The God of Storms, who had been watching everything with a somber expression, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

It was instinct.

Pure instinct.

And without even thinking further, he turned and began to run.

"Where the fuck do you think you are going, son of a bitch?"

A heavy, razor sharp voice erupted behind him.

The God of Storms froze for a fraction of a second, and then he turned around immediately.

Kael was already there.

Right behind him.

The God of Storms did not hesitate.

"Lightning Domain."

The moment he spoke, the world around them churned violently as massive pillars of lightning erupted across space, and they pierced through the universe with overwhelming force.

Hundreds of thousands of concentrated lightning strikes descended at once, and each one carried terrifying destructive power as they tore through space and converged toward Kael.

The entire area was engulfed in blinding light.

But Kael did not step back.

He snorted slightly, and his grip on the sword tightened as he dragged it across the air.

The lightning was cut apart.

Cut.

"6th Form."

His voice remained steady.

"Cut."

The moment he spoke, the blade moved.

And the world followed.

Kael did not slow down even as the storm of lightning descended toward him, and the countless pillars of condensed thunder tore through space while carrying enough force to destroy entire regions of the universe, and the light was so intense that it blinded everything while the sound of thunder roared endlessly across existence.

Yet Kael walked forward without hesitation, and his figure moved through the chaos as if he did not belong to it, while every step he took caused the lightning around him to distort and split apart unnaturally.

The strikes reached him, but they did not land properly because something about his presence disrupted them, and in the next moment they broke apart before they could even touch him, as if they had been cut away before existing.

Kael slowly raised his sword, and his gaze locked onto the God of Storms, whose expression tightened immediately as he felt the danger closing in.

The God of Storms forced his power to surge even further, and the lightning intensified while the entire storm condensed toward Kael in a final desperate attempt to stop him.

But it was already too late.

Kael moved, and his figure blurred through the storm while tearing through layers of lightning, and in the next instant he appeared directly before the God of Storms without giving him time to react.

Then he swung.

BOOOOOOM!

The slash tore through everything in its path, and it did not just cut the lightning but split space itself as it passed through, leaving behind a distorted fracture that refused to close.

The God of Storms froze in place as the strike passed through him completely, and there was no resistance and no defense because his existence was cut apart instantly.

In the next moment, his body shattered violently as it dispersed into fragments of energy, and the divine power within him was forcibly torn away.

Lightning, wind, and water separated from his existence, and they condensed into three distinct orbs that floated in the air while pulsing faintly with pure authority.

The Goddess of Light reacted immediately when she saw this, and her expression sharpened as urgency filled her voice.

"Grab it.." she shouted, and her command echoed across the battlefield.
