Chapter 22: Battle Against the Sky Breaker

Chapter 22: Battle Against the Sky Breaker

The Divine Realm stretched endlessly before Jin, a place of celestial energy, floating islands, and shattered ruins of forgotten gods. The sky burned with golden flames, and the very air vibrated with raw power.

This was not a world for mortals.

This was a battlefield for those who sought to defy the divine.

And standing in Jin's way was a being who had erased countless challengers before him.

> [DIVINE GUARDIAN: ZEPHYROS, THE SKY BREAKER]

A god-slayer who has destroyed all who dared to ascend beyond Elysium.

His golden spear crackled with divine lightning, his crimson eyes cold and unreadable. He did not see Jin as a warrior. He saw him as an insect.

And that was something Jin would never allow.

Jin clenched his fists, his entire body thrumming with excitement. "I've fought legends. I've beaten kings. If you think I'll stop here, you don't know me at all."

Zephyros tilted his head slightly. "You are unworthy."

Then—he moved.

And the Divine War began.

---

The Wrath of a God

Zephyros vanished.

Jin barely had time to register his movement before—

> [Skill Activated: Divine Tempest]

A single thrust that bends space itself, creating an unavoidable shockwave.

BOOOOOOM!

A violent explosion erupted as Zephyros' spear ripped through the battlefield, the sheer force obliterating an entire floating island behind Jin.

Jin dodged just in time, feeling the wind pressure carve deep gashes into his skin.

But Zephyros was already moving again.

Jin's instincts screamed danger. He activated Chaos Step, flickering in and out of existence, dodging in rapid succession.

> [Skill Copied: Sky Breaker's Flash Step]

A divine movement technique that allows instant acceleration beyond human perception.

Jin's form blurred—he was no longer just reacting. He was adapting.

And this time—he countered.

> [Skill Activated: Celestial Breaker!]

His golden-red fist burned with destructive energy as he struck at Zephyros' core.

CRACK!

For the first time—Zephyros moved backward.

A flicker of surprise crossed the god-slayer's face.

Jin grinned. "Not so untouchable, huh?"

Zephyros exhaled, raising his spear again. "Then I shall stop holding back."

And then—the sky itself shattered.

The Descent of the Celestial Storm

> [Zephyros Has Released His Divine Form.]

[All Stats Increased by 500%.]

Aerin, watching from the distance, felt a chill run down her spine. "Jin—get out of there!"

But Jin didn't move.

He only smirked. "Finally."

Zephyros lifted his spear toward the heavens.

The sky darkened.

> [Final Skill Activated: Storm of the Gods]

Summons a celestial storm that erases all existence within its range.

A titanic vortex of golden lightning crashed down from the sky, spiraling toward Jin with unstoppable force.

The system flashed red.

> [WARNING: INESCAPABLE ATTACK DETECTED.]

Jin felt time slow down.

If it was unavoidable—then he just had to break it.

---

Defying a God's Wrath

Jin activated every skill he had.

> [Skill Evolution: Celestial Breaker → Godslayer Mode]

The user's power reaches the level of divine destruction for a short time.

His entire body ignited with golden-red flames, his aura splitting apart the ground beneath him.

> [Final Skill Unlocked: Ragnarok Drive]

The ultimate technique that surpasses mortality. A strike capable of ending gods.

Zephyros' storm descended.

Jin charged forward.

His punch met the celestial storm head-on.

And then—the world erupted.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

A cataclysmic explosion tore through the Divine Realm.

Mountains crumbled. Floating islands disintegrated. The very laws of reality bent under the force of their clash.

And when the light finally faded—only one warrior remained standing.

The system's voice echoed.

> [Victor: Jin Seol!]

[NEW TITLE UNLOCKED: GODSLAYER.]

Zephyros staggered, golden blood dripping from his mouth.

For the first time—he knelt.

And then, he smiled.

"You… are worthy."

Jin wiped the blood from his lips, grinning. "Took you long enough to realize."

The Divine Guardian vanished into light, his power now recognized.

And as Jin looked ahead—a new path revealed itself.

The true Divine Tower lay beyond.

And he was going to conquer it all.

> [Phase Two Progress: 25% Complete.]
