"What is going on here, Joshua, what you said is that, it just a fight with good benefits, not been able to reincarnate, is that your own definition of good benefits??" Sofia, the succubus who entice that Perfect god with eleven true gods said, she was only trying to make some of them go test the power of the formation but deep fear surface on her face when she saw what happen to them, as a succubus not been able to reincarnate a few year after death is worse than death itself.
"Shut the fuck up, if you all have just waited and follow the plan to let the formation he set up, suck his life essence than at least the rest of you and Themiyo could have pin him down while l quickly finish off the wife, but no, you beast just have to get hot blooded at just a little enticing technique and now you have kiss your life and reincarnation goodbye" Joshua shout with unbridled anger.
All the gods become shell-shocked because Joshua rarely shout or even display anger in over quarter of a million years they have known him, he has always been the scholar among the new gods in the god-realm.
The gods finally get a wake-up call that this battle is not just about revenge for their loved one that Malachi killed or just a battle they can benefit from, if they get themselves killed they may never be a chance to reincarnate anymore, this is also one of the two reasons they are here.
It seems Malachi have comprehended the death law to an unimaginable realm, whereby anyone who get killed by him get their chance to reincarnate cut off, a true death in body, energy, soul and karma, so they are scared, which is understandable, no matter how long lived a person is, or how many times they have or can cheat death, no one is ever ready or has truly make peace with true death.
And with the death of twelve, they realize a hole have suddenly appear in plan and only Joshua knows what his lose is going to be because of that.
"Well Joshua, l guess l will thank you for the gift of those gods, this will save me a lot of time and soul essence to deal with you all, it about time Nana, the wait have been long enough, are you ready??" Malachi gave a bow toward Joshua and look back at his wife who look back at him.
Looking back at his wife, and he can tell she was more than ready because even before he alters the word she already goes into labor.
Naomi just rolled her eyes at him as her answer.
Malachi rise his right index finger up and start to chant.
[Damn it, do l really have to use it??] Joshua lament to himself. He knows without any support items, no one below an origin god can really suppress Malachi. It just too outrageous, that they need all these gods to band together to battle a True god and still, they have no guarantee of winning, it's absolutely ridiculous.
The amount of experience all these gods has with their chosen law and time spent on it, that alone should have been more than enough for just a three facet True god to be able to killed Malachi both in body and soul yet here they are, where a person, whose godhood is base on his use of soul essence and four major laws has such a terrifying battle strength to go toes to toes with a Supreme-god and almost killed him, how he cultivate his soul or his laws and ascend to god-hood with it, is totally and absolutely a mystery, to the people of this world at least.
It should have been an impossible task to ascend with a soul, a powerful soul needs a powerful body to contain it, but Malachi is a True god of just a single facet, which means he ascend with his soul, which mean his body is still at immortal stage, so how did he contain that soul inside that body or has the Heaven change how it operate without them knowing, How did he do it, what manual or cultivation method did he use, these are all question Joshua need answer to.
But they all know it, even if they were given or they were able to get their hands on the method or technique Malachi used, there are just some talents hard work cannot beat, and when that said talent is also someone who work extra hard, it equal to Malachi's kind of broken strength.
But still yet, they are just some people that do overestimate themselves, and Joshua is one of them.
Joshua want him to simply hand over the method he use to progress this far, because he believe if he can get his hand on Malachi's method of cultivation then he too, may be able to progress in his cultivation, which seem to have come to a standstill.
He looked towards Malachi and knows he can only win by paying the necessary price, since that is the case; there is no need to hold back anymore.
Joshua put his right hand into his inner robe and bring out a bead that has both black and white color in it, and it give off the aura of Yin and Yang, the present of Chaos and Order, the law of Balance.
Looking at the bead, it a support artifact, which allow it user to seal the movement of his opponent for as long as there is energy in the bead, the quantity and quality of the energy will determine how strong the seal will be.
Joshua pass the bead to Themiyo since he is the most powerful Perfect god he could enlist in their little band of gods, although there is an expression of surprise on the faces of the gods the moment they saw the beads, even Malachi was surprised but for a total different reason than what these other gods were thinking.
They were surprised not because they know the god who owns this particular artifact but because they are wondering just how did Joshua get his hand on it, the Origin god who owns this artifact is a greedy and sinister one, unless something of equal value is given, his possessions won't leave his side for even a second, now the question is how did Joshua get this artifact, only three option can be explore in this situation.
The first option is that Joshua trade for it but that is so unlikely, because if Joshua has what it takes to trade items with a Origin god than why can't he just go hire an eighth grade alchemist to prepare a Foundation strengthening pill or Foundation purifying pill for him, instead of starting an hopeless fight.
The second option which is that Joshua borrowed it, but then again with what did he paid with, not even his life and reincarnation is worth the value of the bead.
Which now bring us to the Third option, which is that Origin god Tobi lent it to Joshua himself, which is the option that sounds more logical to them right now, but the question still remains, what is the relationship between Origin god Tobi and Supreme god Joshua?.
"You true gods will release your life essences into the bead and spread out and Themiyo you should know what to do with the bead right" Joshua looked toward the remain true gods and bark out his order.
"Since l am the most prominent one with formation knowledge here l know exactly what to do" Themiyo answered with confidence, while Joshua nod back at him.
"And the moment Naomi give birth will be her most vulnerable time, so your job will be to hold Malachi down long enough for me to make quick work of the wife, than together we can seal Malachi into the chaos realm" Joshua looked towards the remaining Perfect, True and Supreme gods.
"Okay" Sofia, one of the Supreme gods nod at the same time as the others, showing their understanding.
While they were getting ready and the True gods were pouring their life essence into the Bead of Balance suddenly Malachi move or teleport, they could not tell the difference of how he suddenly appear close to his wife side, he continue his incantation to one of the most complicated and powerful spell in the whole of existence.
