Under the corrosive power of darkness, the Eradicator's divine power was gradually fading, unable to withstand Wang Yang's strength. However, as more members of the Celestial Order arrived, the Eradicator's power began to recover. A golden light appeared around him, slowly forming a golden shield to block the surrounding corrosive darkness.
The Eradicator sighed in relief, knowing the Celestial Order members had arrived. Without them, his divine power wouldn't have recovered, and he couldn't resist the dark force.
"They've finally arrived!" he exhaled, relieved that his life was no longer in immediate danger.
"Kid, we meet again!" one of the Celestial Order members said to Wang Yang. It was none other than Arishem.
"Now, if you become our slave, we will overlook your offense for destroying the Celestial Seed," Arishem declared. "But your civilization still must be destroyed!"
Arishem recalled how Wang Yang thwarted his previous attempt to germinate the Celestial Seed. He had to abandon his pursuit of Wang Yang due to the arrival of the Devourer, but seeing him again, Arishem had no hesitation in wanting to subjugate him.
Wang Yang looked at Arishem, unperturbed. Last time, he might not have been able to defeat him, but now he possessed divine power, making him unfazed even against the Celestial Order.
Before Wang Yang could respond, the Eradicator spoke up from a distance, "That's right, surrender now! How dare you challenge me? Today, we will make you pay the price!"
Wang Yang glanced at the Eradicator, barely holding off his dark corrosive force with his golden shield. Did the Eradicator think his comrades could save him? Or that, with their help, they could kill him?
"Arishem, Judges... Attack now! This guy is a dark sorcerer who can use powerful dark divine power. We don't need to play fair!" the Eradicator urged, feeling his shield corroded and hoping the Celestial Order members would act quickly.
But aside from Arishem and the Judge, the other Celestial Order members looked solemnly at the dark aura surrounding the Eradicator. They sensed the overwhelming power reminiscent of facing a deity.
Arishem glanced at the other Celestial Order members. If they weren't going to act, neither would he. The Judge, weighing the pros and cons of this battle, contemplated their potential losses and gains. They had come because someone was influencing the universe beyond their control and aimed to eliminate such a presence. But if this entity could already resist them, they wouldn't engage, much like they refrained from confronting the Devourer.
After a long silence, the Judge spoke, "Why don't we let this matter rest?" He continued, "The Eradicator hasn't caused significant damage to this planet."
"If there was any offense, I apologize on his behalf," the Judge said, showing unexpected humility. Wang Yang raised an eyebrow, surprised.
"I've never heard of the Celestial Order apologizing," Wang Yang remarked. "Are you planning to come after me once you leave with the Eradicator?"
Wang Yang's words made the Judge hesitate, but he then saw no point in arguing. Wang Yang raised his hand, revealing images formed by concentrated dark energy. From unknown light-years away, these projections showed high-tech weapons aimed at the Milky Way, specifically Earth, controlled by Celestial Order members. These powerful weapons were charged with immense energy, even making Wang Yang feel a sense of crisis.
The Celestial Order's advanced technology could erase timelines, reboot multiverses, and even challenge cosmic entities like the Living Tribunal. Their power was undeniable, and Wang Yang didn't doubt these weapons could destroy Earth.
The Celestial Order members, seeing these projections, were taken aback. Even Arishem seemed surprised. "It seems those people and weapons are unrelated to you?" Wang Yang asked with a faint smile.
The Judge's face darkened, realising their plan had been exposed. Arishem sighed, "I didn't expect you, Judge, to prepare the Necro-Disintegration Cannons."
The Eradicator felt joy, realising the Judge had come prepared. These cannons could quickly destroy a planet, and three could obliterate a star system. With such weapons, even this mighty young man couldn't resist.
