The spectating highgods were different from the others.
Everyone thought that this was a technique used by Joelson.
But they could tell that there was something strange about it.
This definitely wasn't an attack that a demigod like Joelson could unleash.
Even with the help of a highgod artifact, or even a sovereign artifact, a demigod like Joelson would never be able to unleash such a terrifying attack.
There was definitely a highgod expert helping Joelson in the dark!
This person could even be a peak highgod expert!
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to force back five highgods in a single attack!
But the problem was that there were only so many peak highgod experts in the Plane of Slaughter.
Who could the person who was secretly helping Joelson be?
The highgods began to guess in their hearts.
Joelson wasn't someone from the Plane of Slaughter. He had just arrived in the Plane of Slaughter not too long ago.
How could he have known a peak highgod?
Who was the person who had secretly helped Joelson?
The leader of the Orencia Empire, the highgod, was suddenly stunned, as though he had thought of something.
He thought of the day when Joelson had participated in the arena in the Imperial Plaza.
The Emperor of the Orencia Empire, Emperor Congrave, had expressed his intention to rope in Joelson.
And Emperor Congrave was an expert at the peak of the highgod realm!
Could it be Emperor Congrave?
Thinking of this, the leader of the highgods frowned slightly.
If Congrave had acted in secret, then should he have acted in secret as well to help Joelson tide over this difficult situation?
However, the leader of the highgods didn't know if the person who had acted was Emperor Congrave.
Unable to understand, the leader of the highgods shook his head.
No matter what, since Emperor Congrave hadn't appeared, he hadn't given him any orders.
His mission was still to escort the geniuses of the Orencia Empire.
He decided to first take a look at the situation.
At this moment, the five highgods of the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter revealed furious looks as well.
"Who is it?"
"Who dares to obstruct the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter from doing its business?"
"He's truly courting death! Hurry up and come out!"
The five highgods looked around them, cursing furiously, but their eyes revealed a hint of wariness.
Everyone fell silent.
The area around the sovereign's tomb descended into a deathly stillness. There was no sound at all.
No one responded.
"Damn it!"
"He dares to attack but doesn't dare to show himself?"
The five highgods were furious, but there was nothing they could do.
They couldn't find the person who had attacked at all. There was nothing they could do about it.
The late-stage highgod by the side had a solemn look on his face as well.
He couldn't see through the power of that attack which had come crashing down from the blood-red light.
But he could sense that the person who had attacked was definitely not weaker than him!
And now, the other party was in the shadows. No one knew where he was, but they were in the open, in danger of being ambushed at any moment!
"Don't worry! Hurry up and take down Joelson!"
A late-stage highgod shouted loudly to them.
He transformed into a streak of light and flew towards them, staring at the enormous crack in the sovereign's tomb, his eyes filled with vigilance.
They couldn't find anyone to attack. The only thing they could do now was to quickly take down Joelson and bring him back.
"I'll block his attack. You go capture Joelson!"
The five highgods, upon hearing the leader's orders, exchanged glances, then nodded.
The five transformed into streaks of light and charged towards Joelson.
The sovereign's tomb once more began to emit a blood-red light.
"It's coming!"
The late-stage highgod said to himself.
His eyes stared fixedly at the blood-red light within the crevice of the tomb of the sovereign, preparing to block it.
Right at this moment.
The blood-red light once more began to shine, more than ten times more dazzling than the previous time.
Within the crevice of the tomb of the sovereign, the blood-red light suddenly shot out.
The late-stage highgod immediately flew forward to meet it.
"What?"
A late-stage highgod let out a surprised cry.
The five highgods charging towards Joelson, hearing the sound, couldn't help but turn their heads to glance back.
With just this glance, the five immediately revealed terrified looks.
They saw that there wasn't just one blood-red light shooting out from the sovereign's tomb!
There were more than ten of them!
Even late-stage highgod experts wouldn't be able to block so many attacks.
They were only able to block three of the blood-red rays of light, and their entire bodies were sent flying back.
The remaining ten or so rays of blood-red light didn't decrease in power, continuing to shoot towards the five highgods.
The five highgods felt terror in their hearts.
A single ray of blood-red light was enough to force them all to retreat.
If more than a dozen of them were to attack together, wouldn't that mean that they would perish on the spot?
With this thought in mind, the five no longer had the strength to charge towards Joelson.
Instead, they turned and fled in another direction.
The blood-red light, however, was like a magical beast that had smelled the scent of blood, chasing closely behind the five.
In an instant, it caught up.
Seeing that they couldn't escape, the five clenched their teeth, a hint of viciousness flashing through their eyes.
Since they couldn't escape, they would go all out!
The five of them turned to face the blood-red light, each taking out their own weapons and igniting their own life force.
"Go all out!"
The five of them let out a loud roar, striking out with their most powerful attack towards the blood-red light.
However, the blood-red light seemed to have taken aim at its target.
More than ten rays of light spread out, with four of them shooting towards the four of them.
The remaining ten rays of light charged towards a highgod.
Seeing this, the highgod's pupils suddenly constricted, his eyes filled with extreme terror.
A single blood-red ray of light was enough to force all five of them to retreat.
Now, ten rays of light were shooting towards him.
"Damn it!"
The highgod cursed angrily, his voice filled with unconcealable hatred.
In an instant!
The blood-red light had already shot over, colliding with that highgod.
The entire area descended into a deathly silence.
It was as though the sound had disappeared from this space.
Everyone could only see an extremely small blood-red speck of light in the sky.
And then it rapidly expanded.
Boom!
Accompanied by an enormous explosion, waves of shock waves rippled out in the sky, like ripples on a calm surface of water.
They shattered the void.
Pitch-black.
Pitch-black without a single ray of light.
The entire tomb of the sovereign sank into darkness.
Everyone stared in terror in the direction of that highgod.
If it hadn't been for the highgods working together to set up dozens of barriers, given their strength, they probably wouldn't have been able to leave behind even a single speck of ash from the explosion.
The void slowly began to recover.
The surrounding highgods exchanged glances, then nodded and waved their hands.
The pitch-black void began to rapidly recover.
The highgods couldn't wait any longer. They wanted to quickly see what the situation was like.
Under the combined efforts of more than ten highgods, the void quickly recovered.
It didn't matter if it was the crowd or the highgods.
Everyone's gaze turned towards the direction of the highgod.
The instant they looked over, their eyes instantly widened.
The highgod appeared extremely weak, and blood sprayed out from his entire body like a fountain.
All the bones in his body were shattered, and he looked like a ragdoll.
Seeing this scene, even the spectating highgods couldn't help but gulp down a mouthful of saliva.
Although he survived, but…
He self-detonated his divinity!
