Chapter 1969: Born In The Darkness (1/2)
The holy light was resisting the sacred sword so the slash couldn’t reach Samsara’s origin.
“The eternal light will never falter!” Saint let out a battle cry. His boundless holy light continued to fill the sky.
However, the strings of light were peeling and undergoing a fundamental change, revealing their original nature.
They seemed to be liquefying and started to flow while gaining life, no longer being a concept of power or affinity. These strands now shouldered the faith and hope of countless beings in an epoch.
“Boom!” The strands gathered together in the sky and the true form of the light emerged behind Saint, granting him endless holy power.
The light from Samsara no longer resisted the sword since it was melted away due to the more primal nature of the opposing force. All holy powers were for Saint to use at this moment. He has truly become the lord of light.
“Bang!” The sword cut down on Samsara. Nothing could stop this supreme judgment; death was guaranteed.
Samsara fell backward instantly and all the spectators held their breath.
Success? They gazed intensely at the river of time in order to see any unexpected development.
“Buzz.” Samsara’s fallen body turned into strands of light and joined into the original source.
His death suddenly changed the epoch flowing in the river of time. Darkness as black as squid ink filled everything. One wouldn’t be able to see their hand placed in front of them. All existences were mere food for this darkness.
“What should die will.” Samsara appeared in the darkness as its companion with an entirely new temperament.
In the past, he had a very simple and unadorned aura. When standing in front of him, one wouldn’t think that he was a dark overlord but more of a friendly old man.
But this was no longer the case. He was now born in the darkness. Each of his actions and words carried an aggressive and tyrannical feel to them.
He was now an awakened primordial beast with no false trace of amiability like before.
Saint was not surprised and continued staring at Samsara. He remained fearless and unstoppable with the sacred sword in his grasp.
“Old friend, you have done it. At the very least, you were able to kill my light self. No one knows if an event is a disaster or blessing. The light will never return now and I am born in the darkness. This is my true self.” Samsara stated.
