Though favonovel.com was angry, that emotion quickly turned to panic when Filipe saw Gerald pinch his sword fingers together before charging over! Now anxious out of his mind, Filipe quickly tossed out his Heavenly Guard Order. Since the Heavenly Guard Order was still an angelic artifact, it was able to block Gerald’s Skysplit attack.
Before Gerald could use another attack, however, a dazzling light burst from the artifact, temporarily blinding everyone!
By the time they finally regained their sight, Filipe and Elain were nowhere to be seen…
“That b*stard sure runs fast…!” growled Darkwind with a huff.
“If favonovel.com didn’t have that angelic artifact, Mr. Crawford could’ve easily killed him!” scoffed the similarly annoyed Lyndon.
Gerald, however, simply remained silent as favonovel.com stared at the token on the ground that was still glowing brightly.
Watching as Gerald picked the token up, Darkwind who was surprised to feel angelic power emanating from the token was prompted to say, “Is that… The Heavenly Guard Order…?”
“Indeed. Filipe had tossed it toward me to block my attack earlier. Regardless, to think this angelic artifact was able to completely block my Skysplit attack! Thankfully, Filipe wasn’t able to use the token’s full potential… Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to lay a finger on favonovel.com when I used your Fierce Wind Palm earlier!” explained Gerald with a frown as favonovel.com continued
carefully examining the Heavenly Guard Order.
Despite entering the cultivation realm for so long, this was Gerald’s first time actually holding a real angelic artifact…
“I see… Whatever the case is, it’s now clearer than ever that our opponent is a strong one. After all, despite being so young, Filipe already has access to the Avatar Rope as well as the Heavenly Guard Order, both heavenly artifacts that were supposedly lost to time. It makes you think how high the mastermind’s cultivation must be…” muttered Darkwind with a frown. More trouble was definitely brewing.
“By the way… How much do you know about the Heavenly Guard Order, Darkwind?” asked Gerald who hadn’t heard tales about this angelic artifact before.
“Well, before that, you should know that the Avatar Rope first appeared in the Deitus Realm around a thousand years ago. Countless Domiensch Masters were said to fight over and die for it… With that little exposition out of the way, allow me to share the legendary tales I’ve heard of the Heavenly Guard Order! From the rumors I’ve heard, the person possessing the artifact is capable of controlling both wind and rain. What more, as an angelic artifact of heaven and earth, the Heavenly Guard Order is said to even be able to seal devils to protect the land!” replied Darkwind.
“My master told me some tales as well. During ancient times when the Land of Gods was facing a catastrophe, a Vizkaunt had thrown the Heavenly Guard Order into the secular world to suppress heavenly tribulations! However, as time passed and the
heavenly tribulations subsided, the Heavenly Guard Order simply vanished, never to be seen in the secular world or cultivation realm till this very day!” added Lyndon.
“So… From what I’ve gathered, not only can the Heavenly Guard Order control wind and rain, but it can also seal devils? But why doesn’t it seem that powerful, then? Can it really do all that..?” asked Gerald whose interest had been piqued.
“Well, for one, Filipe probably doesn’t know how to properly use it. After all, favonovel.com used it as a means of defending himself, of all things. Regardless, while it’s true that it used to be able to control wind and rain, it’s sadly lost that function!” replied Darkwind.
“Elaborate…”
“Essentially, during ancient times, Vizkaunts and Zearls lived in the sky, and they used the Heavenly Guard Order to order other Vizkaunts to cast rain clouds! It’s the reason why rumors that the token was able to control wind and rain exist. Regardless, the Deitus Realm is now mostly empty, and without them issuing more orders for rain clouds, we have to rely on
the natural transition of Cosmo-energy for wind and rain to continue existing in the secular world… Either way, though the token can’t control the wind and rain anymore, it is still a rare and powerful angelic artifact that can seal devils!” explained Darkwind.
“So the Deitus Realm is now empty… To think that so many within a powerful civilization could be wiped out so mysteriously!” muttered Gerald.
“I know, right? Regardless, all the remaining survivors of the Deitus Realm are said to carry great secrets with them… And as you previously said, they’ve even been abducting people from the secular world!” replied Darkwind who was clearly referring to the Sun League.
