My Goddess is Good at Pretending-Chapter 754: Without Fear of Dying

The corrupted calamity beast, the demonic warlord clad in abyssal scales fell as the Sacred Sakura's joint efforts managed to subjugate the monster.

The voidborn terror, the abyssal lord of destruction, led the charge but was subdued, half-dead, and sealed, under siege by several demon deities and many devil clans.

The plagueborn monsters, dripping with disease and corruption, devoured the entire city and caused the most fatalities. The Human Alliance and the reinforcements from several sacred lands managed to slay the monster, but they had to pay a high price with the lives of more than a thousand people.

The Blood Moon Saintess led her people to burn the corrupted land with their blood-red colored flames, and The Frozen Cloud Saintess with her people froze the contaminated area with their immortal ice techniques.

The deities and demigods of the Human Alliance unleashed a storm of immortal flames. They installed anti-curse staff on the ground to purify the land.

The once prosperous city was razed to the ground. Everything was reduced to ruins during the battle against the abyssal plague bird.

On the border between the Human Realm and Demon Realm, the demon lords created a forbidden fortress to entangle and seal the abyssal creature. They couldn't kill it, but aside from that, they had other intentions toward the captured god-level demonic creature.

"..." Skyla bit her lower lips as she could feel what they did could ruin them sooner or later. They should annihilate the corrupted monster descended from the Divine World, but many greedy demon lords came to a tacit understanding and just sealed the monster.

"We require Sacred Sakura's wisdom for it. Sigh... why did this bastard choose to descend near our territory out of all other places?" Abraham crossed his arms. The voidborn terror was the codename given by Sacred Sakura's intel, and he alone wasn't enough to destroy this godlike corrupted monster.

Since the other demon deities wanted to keep the calamity for some personal gain, he could only wait for Sacred Sakura's response.

The most fierce battlefield occurred at Sacred Sakura's side. The forest within a kilometers radius was reduced to ashes, and the fortress was leveled to the ground. The calamity beast, the corrupted, grotesque dragon, let out its final breath as its soul was shattered, its spirit perished, and its entire body was obliterated under Sacred Sakura's combined holy magics.

Even as the entire fortress-city fell, even as the lands were drenched in blood, they would never surrender.

This was their world, the one their Goddess wished to protect. They would fight for it and wait for their Goddess to return.

"Should we purify the land?" High Priestess Bhae sounded like an invitation, but she was actually asking permission from the other Sacred Sakura's elders, asking whether they should do something to the affected land.

"Just perform minimal purification to prevent the curse and corruption from spreading. We need to preserve our power efficiently because the war is far from over." Shrine Priestess Zi Xuan stared at the cracked sky with a solemn gaze. She then clasped her hands in prayer.

She didn't need to say it out loud, but everyone already understood. It was only three corrupted monsters, but the mortals suffered relatively heavy casualties. If more monsters would descend, they had to fully prepare to fight those monsters...

"Why, why was it only Sacred Sakura who barely suffered any losses? They only got some people with minor injuries, but we suffered heavy casualties. Even one of our immortal sword deities fell!" An injured Immortal Sword Sect's elder shouted his complaint loudly.

At the center of the formation, Gabriella, the eldest disciple of Sacred Sakura, stood before the Immortal Sword Sect's warriors.

"In the name of the Sacred Sakura Goddess, we lead this battle to its end. The fallen die as heroes and shall return to the cycle of samsara. We also suffered casualties. Our disciples had returned to our Goddess' embrace... but we need to remain strong as the invasion won't just end here." Gabriella stated it firmly but with insight and understanding.

She continued by conveying their honors and achievements for successfully slaying the god-level corrupted creature. She comforted the shaken mind with her sermon-like speech because she could not let negative emotions win anyone's mind as the war was still the beginning.

After the Immortal Sword Sect and the other reinforcements came into understanding and were enlightened, they could only sigh and recover the dead to be buried in their respective sects.

Likewise Sacred Sakura. They boarded their flying ships and flew in a defensive formation fleet to return to the Sacred Sakura Region. Two of their disciples died in battle, and they wished to bury their comrades in their homeland.

"We are overwhelmed just by facing one monster. Master should be in the highest heaven, and cannot provide assistance in other places. The entire Divine World might have become hell by now." Remiel voiced whatever came to her mind as she gazed upon the cracks in the sky.

It gradually got repaired by itself, but its enclosure was so slow. She could feel more threats would soon descend, and the Terra World wouldn't be the only mortal world for the escaped corrupted monsters to descend.

Two of her juniors died during the first confrontation with the godly corrupted monster, but it was still the beginning.

"Master..." Jophiel clasped her hands in prayer as she closed her eyes and she tried to feel her master's presence through their bond and spiritual connection. She felt relieved when she sensed her master's presence was still vivid.

Sure enough, some corrupted monsters descended to the mortal world a few hours later. The Elysion Chruch's teleportation arrays across three mortal worlds came in handy during the following battles. The Sacred Sakura's forces became the command center of the entire war in all three mortal worlds.

The entire world fought as one as they shared the same goal, namely to protect their world.

The abyssal darkness of corruption continued to spread. Many places in the mortal world were on the brink of collapse, but none faltered. The brave warriors fought with everything they had without fear of dying, knowing the world's fate lay in their hands. They couldn't let their worlds get destroyed when the gods and immortals of the heavens fought against the biggest threats in the Divine World.

---

Meanwhile, the high-level deadly battle that broke out in the Corrupted Nirvana Realm entered its peak stage where the heavenly army had already wiped out all the corrupted monsters within a twenty-thousand-kilometer radius of the Nirvana Barrier. They had already set foot in the abyssal core region, aiming at the mother of corrupted monsters, the Nirvana Abyssal Demon God in the heart area of ​​the abyssal core domain.

The Nirvana Abyssal Demon God felt fear crept down its entire being upon the Supreme Goddess of Mysterious Origin's appearance. In desperation, it burned its life force to push its rank to 18th Rank Abyssal Sovereign and unleashed its God Emperor-level ultimate attack, releasing an endless black hole of destruction, devouring everything in its path.

However...

The Supreme one descended. Though only in her dharma body, spiritual form, she neutralized the black hole of destruction before it could engulf anyone in the heavenly army.

"Clear the path!" Elysia relayed her command to the frontline, boosting everyone's spirit and morale.

Sadly, the amount of magical energy she absorbed from that black hole far exceeded her spiritual form's capacity. Moreover, her spiritual veins throughout her spiritual form had already turned black, and she felt like she was going to explode. Therefore, she immediately vanished from the scene, returning to her true body in the Nirvana Barrier.

"Supreme Goddess neutralized the corruption with a heavy price for us! We must not waste the opportunity she opened! Attack!"

"Supreme Goddess already relayed her wisdom! Destroy the corrupted!"

"Kill!"

The heavenly commanders, consisting of the God Lords and God Kings, unleashed their trademark techniques to destroy the corrupted. Since the Supreme Goddess awakened her supreme divinity, they no longer had to worry about any curse and corruption, even with no anti-curse items, because she protected and supported them from afar.

They knew very well that there was a price she needed to pay, and it became apparent after her dharma body neutralized the God Emperor-level attack just now. Her spiritual form cracked when the corruption seeped into her entire being through her spiritual veins. It was obviously so painful, but she endured it with no words and she retracted her spiritual form so nobody would worry about her.

Such a selfless act and sacrifice already gained everyone's respect and awe. Therefore, they, as the spearhead, charged at the enemies and annihilated everything that got in their way with no restraints.

Their current objective was to clear the path to the abyssal domain's core area from the countless corrupted creatures that filled the sky and land, blocking them from their primary target.

At the moment, the Supreme Goddess was charging her supreme power for an ultimate attack that would end the Nirvana Abyssal Demon God once and for all. For that, they had to open the path for her so her attack would kill the mother of corrupted monsters with a close to 100% hit rate.

"..." Elysia silently heaved a subtle sigh, feeling sad.

Through the Nirvana Barrier, she could see the course of the war beginning to be under control in both the Nirvana Realm and the Heavenly Realm, but she knew it was just a calm before the storm. The most decisive battle in the end was the battle between the Sovereign of Heaven and the Sovereign of Abyss. It was the most determining factor.

However, what made her sigh and sad was not that. She had already planned everything regarding the Nirvana Great War, how to wrap it up, and her ending that would happen tomorrow.

She had 154 proud disciples, her reliable disciples who accompanied her plushie avatar, Miko, for years... but two of her disciple's life marks were extinguished just a few minutes ago, indicating their death. They died as heroes during the decisive battle to slay the Nirvana Abyssal Demons that breached the mortal world's barrier to invade the lower realms.

"..." Elysia looked at her disciple's plaque, only 152 stars remained.

Different from the recently joined disciples, even the reincarnated heroes, her initial 154 disciples weren't just disciples of Sacred Sakura. Regardless of their true origins and bloodlines, after saving them from their cursed destiny, she raised them as her children, and she knew they treated her as their mother. Most of them were just too shy to admit it.

The feeling of loss hit her hard, and Miko cried in her soul realm, but she maintained her mental state and emotions stable because they were still in the middle of the Nirvana Great War.
