477 The Voidblade Divides the Heavens
🕑 Added 2025-07-19 15:00:11 +0000 UTCThe entire sky ignited in a blaze of fire.
A colossal blade, vast as a mountain range, came crashing down.
It was a strike no one could possibly block—an ultimate sword technique once wielded by Fu Hua against the Herrscher of the Void.
The Voidblade God!
“Let’s see just how capable you really are, girl from another world!”
Otto stood far in the distance, watching as the Voidblade God hurtled toward the Hyperion.
His eyes were filled with contempt and scorn.
“With Fu Hua unleashing the Voidblade God in her Herrscher form, not only you, but the entire Hyperion will be reduced to ashes.”
“That’s right. From the very beginning, I never intended to take Kiana and Theresa back alive. Even Theresa—she’s nothing more than a copy of Kallen!”
Otto raised both hands like a conductor poised before a grand symphony.
Gazing at the world engulfed in flames, he wore a twisted, confident smile—this destruction was his masterpiece.
A triumphant symphony played for no one but himself. A requiem to summon back the one he’d lost—Kallen Kaslana.
“All I need is the stigmata carrying Kallen’s memories and personality. As long as I have a sliver of viable DNA, extracting the stigmata will be enough. The host’s life? Entirely irrelevant.”
“Come now, Kagura—if you can, try and block this!”
“Do you still believe you can protect the Hyperion? Or this pathetic world?!”
“…So that’s it.”
Kagura’s golden eyes stared into the crimson sky, at the searing blade above—then turned coldly back toward Otto.
Otto Apocalypse.
This man had completely lost his mind.
It was now clear—Otto’s ultimate goal had never been to destroy Honkai or to save the world. No. His true desire was far more personal:
To resurrect the woman who had died 500 years ago because of his own actions—Kallen Kaslana.
And now, everything he needed was in place.
A controllable Herrscher: Fu Hua, transformed into a Herrscher, capable of unleashing the Voidblade God. The strongest Herrscher to date—perhaps the final Herrscher of this era. The Herrscher of the End.
Stigmata containing Kallen’s soul: Theresa and Kiana both carried Kallen’s stigmata. With just a trace of their DNA and the power of a Herrscher, Kallen could be pulled back from the stigmata.
The ability to reconstruct a human body: Whether through Otto’s own Void Archive, Durandal’s Black Abyss White Flower, or Seele’s Soul Feast, recreating Kallen’s body would be trivial.
In Otto’s grand design, the Hyperion and everyone aboard it were expendable. They were obstacles—nothing more. Eliminating them was simply the optimal path to success.
“I see now. You cast aside your humanity long ago. For your own ambition, you were willing to sacrifice Theresa—and everyone else.”
Kagura’s voice was like frost. “Even the entire Schicksal organization, the whole world… In your eyes, they’re nothing but pawns to discard at will.”
“In that case—you better be ready.”
Kagura raised her right hand toward the sky.
“If you’ve betrayed humanity, the world, and the future—then prepare to be erased by them in turn!”
‘Vwoooom—!’
A surge of blue energy exploded from Kagura as she fully unleashed the power of the Space Gem.
In an instant, a massive portal tore open above her—an immense vortex of pure spatial energy, glowing with a cold, deep blue light.
It devoured everything in its path without hesitation.
‘BOOOOM!’
The sky flashed with red lightning as burning feathers fell like a rain of fire.
The Voidblade God descended with unrelenting force.
If it struck the Hyperion, the entire floating warship would be obliterated in the blink of an eye.
But now—there was a barrier in its path.
A massive blue ring shimmered above the Hyperion, intercepting the deadly strike.
‘BZZZZZT!’
Crackling lightning filled the sky as red and blue forces clashed violently.
In that moment, the world seemed to split in two.
The upper half burned with infernal crimson flame.
The lower half shimmered with calm, oceanic blue.
The Space Gem’s immense power had torn a rift in space, intercepting the blade mid-fall.
The blazing sword abruptly vanished—swallowed by the portal.
And 1,200 kilometers away, above the open sea…
The Voidblade God reappeared.
‘Boom—!’
A massive surge of Honkai energy, wrapped around a blade capable of burning all things, plunged violently into the heart of the Pacific Ocean.
The boiling seawater erupted upward, forming a colossal mushroom cloud that reached hundreds of meters into the sky.
Moments later, a furious tsunami spread in all directions, wreaking havoc across 800 kilometers of uninhabited ocean.
The atmospheric disturbance it triggered even gave birth to two Category 16 super typhoons in the South Pacific...
Fortunately, that overwhelmingly powerful Void Sword Deity had only been driven into the depths of the Pacific.
Whether it was the tsunami or the typhoons, they eventually dissipated, diluted by the vast ocean, disappearing into the endless sea...
“Hoh... now that was unexpected.”
Otto’s eyes glinted with mild surprise.
“I didn’t think you’d actually manage to neutralize the attack of the Void Sword Deity. Looks like today’s little farce won’t end so easily after all.”
The flames had died. The lightning had faded.
The silver-haired girl before Otto panted heavily—clearly, that massive portal she had just summoned had taken a toll on her.
“Otto, any last words?”
Kagura straightened her posture and pointed directly at him.
“Once, I may have harbored the faint hope that you were someone I could reason with... but now, I’ve made up my mind to kill you.”
“So no matter what you say, no matter what you do—nothing will change the fact that you’re going to die by my hand.”
“If you have any regrets, now’s the time to spit them out—before your voice box is turned to ash!”
As she spoke, a radiant glow began to shine from the back of her hand—the power of the Infinity Stones awakening one after another.
Blue. Red. Green. Orange. Yellow. Purple...
“Heh... interesting.”
Otto showed no hint of panic as he watched Kagura’s power skyrocket.
“You really think that just because you stopped the Void Sword Deity, you’ve already won? You underestimate the one I created... the Herrscher of Finality!”
“?!”
Kagura’s golden eyes narrowed sharply.
That Herrscher—the one born from Fu Hua’s awakening—hadn’t been sent away with the Void Sword Deity!
‘Whoosh—!’
In the blink of an eye, a figure in a white qipao suddenly appeared before her.
Fu Hua.
It was her!
The same Fu Hua who had been chanting high above to summon the Void Sword Deity... had now descended to the battlefield!
She had once been struck down by Otto’s simulated Judgment of Shamash, and reborn as a Herrscher—the real Fu Hua!
Now, clad in a white qipao adorned with flame patterns, her long hair snow-white and tipped with burning crimson, she stood before Kagura.
Her scarlet eyes were devoid of emotion, and though her body radiated immense Herrscher energy, it was clear—
This wasn’t Fu Hua anymore. It was a puppet. A powerful war doll manipulated by Otto.
But even so, Kagura wouldn’t dare underestimate the strength of Herrscher Fu Hua.
“Tch! As expected of a Herrscher-born Immortal... she’s fast!”
Gritting her teeth, Kagura retracted the power of the Infinity Stones and took a quick step back, shifting into a defensive stance.
Even Fu Hua as a Herrscher shouldn't stand much of a chance against someone wielding all six Infinity Stones... or so she thought.
Then a realization hit her—
Wait a second... didn’t Fu Hua once go toe-to-toe with a six-core blowfish or something?
Crap! Did I just jinx myself!?
With a sharp bite of her lip, Kagura unleashed a surge of violet energy across her body—the Power Stone's ability: Absolute Offense and Defense.
[Power Stone—Activated!]
[Concept of Absolute Defense—Extracted!]
[Constructed Body Armor—Engaged!]
At the same moment, Herrscher Fu Hua surged forward like a streak of fire, feet leaving blazing trails through the air!
“Taixuan: Heaven Splitter!”
