Chapter 402: Chapter 149: The One Favored by Destiny... Is Me_2

"No need," Adam waved his hand, "you just need to find a way to survive."

"Hey, don’t be ungrateful!" a dwarf woman frowned, but Adam had already turned and was walking towards the mountain peak.

What exactly was going on with this blond man?

Afterward,

the group witnessed miracles never seen before, with divine apparitions appearing around the desolate island. It was as if they were situated in the spectators’ seats, bestowing divine favors upon Adam in the battleground.

"Adam, from now on you will be the darling of the sun; as long as you stand in sunlight, you will receive three times the enhancement in strength."

"Adam, from now on you will be the darling of the moon; as long as you stand in moonlight, you will receive three times the enhancement in strength."

"Adam, from now on you will be the darling of the blade; no weapon in this world will be able to harm you."

"Adam, from now on you will be the darling of toxins; no toxin in this world will be able to harm you."

"Adam, from now on you will be the darling of destiny, able to look back at the past, present, and future, and nothing will ever deceive your eyes."

"Adam, from now on you will be the darling of the earth; as long as you stand on the ground, you will never run out of magic power."

"Adam, from now on you will be the darling of dreams; you will never be disturbed by any illusion."

"Adam, from now on you will be the darling of ice and fire; you will no longer be affected by flames or cold."

"Adam, from now on you will be the darling of death; able to return from death three times."

"Adam, from now on you will be the darling of lies; you will never be deceived by any lie."

"Adam, from now on you will be the darling of justice; the blade in your hand will be able to vanquish all evil."

"Adam, from now on you will be the darling of victory; defeat will forever be alien to you." The astonishing blessings kept descending, nearly making one suspect they were hallucinations.

However, the blessings bestowed by the gods were indeed real.

"Could that man be the original human?" The girl with pink hair came back to her senses, her fingers trembling as she pointed at Adam’s back, "Wasn’t he already dead of old age?"

"Perhaps the gods pulled Adam out of the river of time?" the dwarf woman answered instinctively, now truly feeling like she was witnessing history. This battle between Ahtal and Adam might indeed determine the strongest of all.

No... think of it from another angle.

"Run, or we’ll all die from being caught in it!" she realized, picking up her hammer and starting to run.

Given that Adam had been granted so many blessings by the gods, it indicated that Ahtal’s power was beyond imagination. If they didn’t run quickly, all of them would die there, with no chance of survival.

"Wait for me!" The girl with pink hair hurried after her, and seeing this, the others quickly followed, soon reaching the edge of the desolate island.

As for why they didn’t flee the island, it was simply because a barrier was set around the island, making it impossible to leave.

Otherwise, they would have made a clean escape long ago.

"Isn’t this a bit too much?" Xi Mu smirked, as dragon scales appeared on his body, and black flames that seeped through the gaps of the dragon scales stained his armor black, turning his entire presence ferocious and dangerous in an instant.

To this, Adam showed a smile:

"If I hadn’t done so, I would have had no chance of winning."

"Then do not let me down," Xi Mu raised the Great Sword of Death in his hand, and Adam made a corresponding movement.

In the intersection of their gazes, they launched their attacks without hesitation.

"Boom!" A bright light engulfed the desolate island, and the spreading shockwaves tore through the confining barrier. Those at the edge of the barrier were instantly incinerated into ashes.

"I can win!" Adam made the judgment in an instant; as long as he stood on the ground, he would have no worries about magic power depletion, and with his resistance to ice and fire, he wouldn’t need to fear damage from high or low temperatures, plus his eyes that could see through the past, present, and future, along with the power to return from death three times.

This had already elevated him to an undefeatable level.

"Is that so?" a knight clad in black flaming armor appeared like a specter, his Great Sword of Death cleaving without hesitation.

Silent and sneaky, angled most cunningly.

"Clang!" As if he had foreseen the attack, Adam parried it with his knight’s sword and simultaneously bent sharply backward, narrowly dodging the Dragon Breath spewed by Ahtal.

Seizing the opportunity, he swung his knight’s sword at the neck of Ahtal.

Blood splattered.

Xi Mu stepped back a few paces, raised his hand to touch his cheek, and although the wound had fully healed, it had indeed been inflicted by Adam.

"Ahtal, victory stands by my side!" Adam assumed an offensive stance, his gaze fixed on Ahtal, his eyes that could see through the future needed constant vigilance.

No matter the move, he could foresee the future nine seconds ahead, meaning any change in strategy was futile against him.

"Victory stands by my side, actually." Xi Mu chuckled and charged at Adam.

Adam’s eyes narrowed, clearly seeing the future, and his body moved subconsciously, yet soon the future he had seen dissolved.

What exactly was happening.

"Fate favors me the most, Adam." Adam heard laughter behind him, then suddenly felt a pain in his waist, and a tremendous force hurled him into the air, embedding him into the mountain of a desolate island.

...

...

Meanwhile,

Doris City.

Inside the Church of Destiny.

"Hecate really is a witch." The Pope of Destiny sighed lightly, then turned to Suna beside her and explained, "Ahtal’s deeds are too legendary and coincidental, so I’ve always suspected that Hecate has become a witch."

Suna: "..."

"You probably aren’t in the mood to hear this now, are you?" the Pope of Destiny sighed, knowing Suna’s current concern was the battle between Ahtal and Adam.

"Don’t worry, Ahtal will definitely be fine." She placed her hand on Suna’s shoulder, revealing a kindly smile.

"Those witches behind the scenes won’t let Ahtal die."

"Grandmother Pope." Suna finally snapped back to reality and asked the Pope of Destiny, "Was my encounter with Ahtal also arranged by the Destiny Witch?"

"Fate’s arrangement isn’t important, what matters is your own will." the Pope of Destiny consoled her, "Just as everyone is bound to die, each person can give their death a different meaning."

"Is Ahtal just a pawn to the Destiny Witch?" Suna’s eyes slightly brightened as she shared vision with the Three Goddesses of Fate, clearly witnessing everything happening on the battlefield, including the sweat on both Ahtal and Adam’s faces.

The Pope of Destiny did not respond.

About how the Destiny Witch viewed Ahtal, she also couldn’t provide a definite answer right now, but if the Destiny Witch was Hecate during her human days, she could affirm that the Destiny Witch was very fond of Ahtal.

But if Hecate had become the Destiny Witch, then all past intelligence about Hecate was meaningless.

No one could guarantee whether the intelligence obtained was not manipulated by the Destiny Witch.

"Now it’s time to compete in skills." Xi Mu flicked the Great Sword of Death, watching Adam emerge from the mountain, his gaze falling on the bloodstain on Adam’s side.

Blades indeed could not harm Adam, but the power bestowed upon the Great Sword of Death could inflict penetrative damage on him.

"Competing in skills, I might not stand a chance." Adam smiled gently, clapping his hands lightly, "Let’s rather match our powers then."

As the words fell, the scenery of seventy thousand years traversed the river of time, arriving at this very moment.

It was the arrival of the Tree of Omniscience.
