Chapter 707: Chapter 498 Hero VS Demon King (4000 words)

```

"Thunderstorm Battle Axe, is this?"

Gazing at the huge battle axe descending from the sky and the lightning filling the heavens, Qin Chu muttered inwardly.

Dense lightning covered thousands of kilometers around, piercing through the night and tearing apart the darkness. The world became so bright that it was almost blinding, as if a god was in a furious rage punishing all shadows, dirtiness, evil, and blasphemy.

The next instant, the lightning enveloped Qin Chu.

Standing at the core of the thunderstorm, the golden light on the surface of his body shattered instantly.

The intense electricity wrapped around Qin Chu’s body like venomous snakes, a force so unbearable that not even his flesh, tempered through numerous trials and made extremely resilient, could withstand.

Qin Chu’s body seemed to have turned into a statue, with his skin covered in dense cracks.

Then, silver-white twisting arcs of electricity, with Qin Chu at their center, instantly engulfed everything around him.

Antia’s expression changed slightly as she waved her hand, the chains wrapped around her body now winding around several women. She retreated with these women, not stopping until they were at least ten kilometers away.

The thunderous roar spread, and everything in the vast area turned to fine dust, leaving nothing but a shattered and desolate ruin.

A river that cut through the jungle was instantly evaporated, revealing a muddy riverbed.

This was the power of a demigod.

A true demigod, far more terrifying than Rose Vesper, whom Qin Chu had previously encountered, by an unfathomable measure.

No escape.

Even with Qin Chu’s strength and speed, there was simply no chance to evade such an attack, for the area it covered was too vast.

Amidst the thunder, Qin Chu’s flesh cracked, but the power of Holy Healing instantly restored the damaged parts of his body, as if he was caught in a meat grinder, his body endlessly cycling between destruction and renewal.

It’s unknown how much time had passed when suddenly, Qin Chu’s voice emerged amidst the thunder.

His voice was not loud, yet it could not be suppressed even by the raging thunder.

"God has decreed that the power of demons shall be weakened."

The voice drifted through the air, piercing clearly into Nag’s ears.

It seemed to contain no energy, no hint of Elemental Power... but within the voice faint traces of rules were woven.

Nag’s expression shifted. The moment he heard this voice, the power of the rules had already activated.

Qin Chu couldn’t directly suppress the Demon King with the Reverse Prophecy Technique, but he could influence the Demon King’s power.

Nag could feel the surging energy within his body instantly suppressed, and the lightning filling the sky became sparse in an instant.

The power that directly affected the rules, even Nag had never experienced it before.

One must say, Augustus was a true prodigy.

Setting aside the enmity between the two, just on talent alone, Augustus truly stood at the pinnacle of humanity. The Reverse Prophecy Technique was a power that directly interfered with rules—something that not even all gods... no, perhaps even gods may not fully control.

If Augustus wasn’t so impatient, if he could endure the hatred in his heart and devote himself to rigorous training, his achievements would surely be far more horrifying than now, and he might have had the chance to break the shackles that prevent mortals from becoming gods and truly take his revenge on the Void Seven Uglies.

Phew...

Another strange howl.

Two massive chains flickering with Holy Light rose from the ground, writhing and dancing through the air, wrapping around Nag’s body.

Super Order Magic, chains of Heavenly Prison.

Under his full assault, not only the Hero did not simply die but instead could interfere with his own power... Nag became increasingly wary of this Hero, a being whose strength could not be measured by his realm.

The enormous battle axe swept across.

Creak crack.

Just before Nag, space almost instantly came to a stop, fracturing like shattered glass, filled with cracks.

The next moment, that mirror and the chains within it shattered simultaneously.

The Super Order Magic of the Light Attribute, casually unraveled by Nag, the strength of the Demon King indeed formidable.

Just after destroying the chains of Heavenly Prison, Nag’s movements didn’t pause in the slightest. In a bizarre manner that defied the laws of physics, he swung the battle axe vertically downwards.

Hum...

The arc of light from the battle axe moved with speed comparable to lightning, immediately splitting the area in front of him into two distinct halves, the ground tearing apart with a clear division.

Even the clouds and lightning in the sky were split open from the middle, but Qin Chu’s figure was already gone from the earth, leaving only a scroll neatly severed in two, which immediately turned to dust in front of Nag.

Nag was all too aware that Qin Chu had not perished.

A scroll?

Had that guy used the scroll to replace himself and escape?

Not at all.

How could he possibly escape?

It was quite clear that Qin Chu had treated this clash with the Demon King as a form of training for himself.

He wanted to use this method to gauge the gap between himself and a true demigod, to determine exactly where his own strength stood.

With no further disturbances around, only the piercing wind blew across the dust-covered ruins, the swirling dust unable to impede the perception of Qin Chu and Nag.

Suddenly, Nag’s pupils contracted slightly. Without hesitation, he rooted his feet into the ground, twisted his waist, and with both arms tightly gripping the battle axe, he swept it behind him.

Once more, a weird sound of space tearing ensued, and the space behind him was viciously ripped into two halves.
