Klanvor’s figure was stopped.
Although He is a deity of strong divine power, in the context of the Saint’s Cataclysm, Klanvor has already lost the power of a true god.
All deities have been suppressed, and even Klanvor can only fight in his saint form, which means he is now just a saint above profession level 40. If it were not for this, he wouldn’t have been ambushed and seriously injured by Naraku for a time.
Many Undead Lords surrounded Klanvor’s figure.
In the face of so many powerful liches and Undead Lords, it would not be easy for Klanvor to escape, not to mention there was a lich queen of Gisz in the sky eyeing him.
Klanvor was clearly at a disadvantage.
Moreover, it seemed to be a very serious disadvantage, as he couldn’t even force Naraku to take action.
However.
Klanvor is after all an old king of the dead, and just when his figure was blocked by numerous Undead Lords, a deep voice suddenly came from the southwest: “Enough. You undead have already caused countless disasters in the Material Plane, you should return now.”
In the distant sky.
A male human covered in wounds and scars appeared. As he walked with great difficulty, it could be seen that his feet were already crippled, and his hands were also severely injured. His skinny and small body was only wrapped in a loincloth. Although his head was slightly bald, his unsightly face always bore a comforting gentle smile. His body, covered in thick body hair, was interlaced with various scars, bleeding wounds, burning scars, and marks left from various torments. Yet even so, a powerful force enveloped the edges of the battlefield, soothing the living while suppressing the brutality of the undead.
—Ilmat, the God of Suffering!
This deity of medium divine power and lawful good faction seemed to have been persuaded by Klanvor; He joined the battle and stood on the side of the living.
The gods were all watching.
No one dared to easily get involved in this struggle of the King of the Dead. Perhaps only these lawful good faction deities could be more easily persuaded by Klanvor to deal with Naraku, after all, Naraku’s actions had severely angered these lawful good gods.
Ilmat is of medium divine power.
He is the God of Tears and the God of Shattered, his church comforts and shelters the disabled, the oppressed, the poor, slaves, serfs, and so on, and has widespread faith among the lower classes of the Material Plane. Ilmat is a kind-hearted, gentle, peaceful, and calm deity who willingly bears the suffering for the entire world that suffers. However, although the personality of the God of Tears is very gentle, He exhibits a fiercely brutal side when angered. He is extremely concerned about all the children and young lives in the world and punishes those who dare to harm those He is protecting.
The Undead Plague has killed many people.
Among them, the weak children find it even harder to survive. Ilmat’s anger made his pupils shine with a golden light, looking like a sharp sword aimed straight at the God of d*ath – Naraku.
This deity is not very powerful.
He is not a combat-type deity, but Ilmat’s church has many of the most devoted followers across the continent. In this cruel world of reality, many sufferers, sick people, and the poor rely on Ilmat’s church for relief. People in many regions respect the church of the God of Tears, and when his priests provide free medical services, they often receive many generous aids.
Groups of monks appeared at the edge of the battlefield.
They are the legendary “Shatterers,” Ilmat’s monk order, and one of the strongest monk orders in the Material Plane.
These powerful monks are adept at enduring pain and transforming suffering and torment into strength. They can work as priests and can advance as Arcanists, Holy Fighters, Divine Followers, Divine Seekers, and Saints without facing penalties for leaving their profession. Also, due to Ilmat’s power, these monks possess healing abilities; they can use their innate healing grace and a small number of healing divine techniques.
The God of Suffering pays attention to spirituality, and His church has a group of monks who abandon their physical bodies in pursuit.
The Shatterers pierce into countless undead like a sharp kn*fe, and at the same time, Ilmat and Klanvor’s churches, the Undead Lords controlled by Naraku, suddenly became a little tense.
However.
Naraku himself stood on the altar without any movement, continuing to absorb the d*ath power of this world, saying into the void: “It’s time to fulfill your promises! Once I seize the God of d*ath System, you can receive more rewards.”
Who?
Who else?
For a moment, the other gods were astonished because they did not sense other presences.
“Cackle!”
A sudden laugh echoed across the land, and then a bl**d-red light tore the sky apart. Above countless undead, a gate leading to the Hell of Bartok opened.
“Devils!”
Klanvor’s terrified and furious voice roared: “As the God of d*ath, you actually collude with devils! This is an unforgivable betrayal of the pact of the gods!!!”
The God of d*ath guards the Underworld and the River of Underworld.
And whether it is devils or demons, they want to steal souls from the River of Underworld as much as possible. For a long time, the God of d*ath has been secretly competing with the Soul Thieves, and nearly all the Soul Thieves have backing from powerful figures in the lower planes.
One by one, abyssal fiends walked out from the portal.
At the forefront was the archdevil of the first layer of Hell of Bartok – Bael, and behind him appeared an archdevil with a serpentine body, the archdevil of the third layer – Mammon.
Naraku indeed colluded with the devils.
And to seize Klanvor’s power, he even sold out the interests of the Underworld.
This is a betrayal of the pact of the gods, for the most important duty of the God of d*ath is to protect these souls and prevent them from being stolen by the devils and demons of the lower planes.
Countless elite devils appeared in the sky, all from the elite forces of the Abyssal bl**d War, and Bael is the commander of the bl**d War; the forces he could mobilize far exceed those of other archdevils.
The battlefield was instantly reversed.
With the appearance of the Devil Legion, neither Klanvor’s church nor Ilmat’s church had any chance of victory, because mortal armies could not contend with the bl**d War Legion.
“Weak and shameful Klanvor!”
“The God of d*ath is the master of d*ath! Not the servant of other gods!…”
Naraku wore a mocking smile and said: “Look at your pathetic state! … As the ruler of the Underworld, you’ve fallen to this extent! …”
Numerous devils descended from the sky.
In an instant, Klanvor’s church suffered heavy losses, and it is undoubtedly the case that Naraku paid a substantial price to convince the bl**d War Legion to join the fight.
The only possibility was—the River of Underworld!
He sold out the interests of the River of Underworld, allowing the devils’ tentacles to infiltrate into it.
