Light shone from all over Jubileus' body.
Although the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse attacked Jubileus's vitals, to a god, there was no such thing as vitals. Their attacks were nothing more than injecting the power of judgment into Jubileus's body.
As an 'authority' power bestowed by the Charred Council to the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the power of judgment was something that Jubileus could not control or resist. When these foreign powers rampaged back and forth in her body, her immortal elemental body could no longer repair and heal. If it were before, it might have been fine. Jubileus could still use the power of the Eyes of the World to reverse time. But now that Bayonetta had woken up and been taken out of her body, the power of the Eyes of the World was missing and could not be used normally. This was the greatest result of the Four Horsemen's assassination.
Like a leaking balloon, endless holy light leaked out from the wound on her body. Jubileus hugged her head with both hands and let out a shocking scream, but she could not stop the leakage process. All the holy light and magic power in her body fled into the atmosphere uncontrollably, causing her body to shrink at a visible speed.
The more the power belonging to Jubileus leaked out, the stronger the power of judgment belonging to the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Before her body could return to normal size, there was suddenly a bang, and a dazzling light appeared. It was as though a golden sun had appeared in the sky of Heaven, and her body completely exploded!
There was no scene of flesh and blood flying everywhere. All the fragments of Jubileus's body turned into golden holy light the moment they exploded and scattered in all directions. The entire explosion process was like a solar flare, disappearing in an instant.
Be it angels, demons, or humans, as long as a creature appeared in this Heaven Purgatory Space, they would see this golden flare …
The moment the flare disappeared, a huge impact force spread out and engulfed the entire Heaven Realm!
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Jeanne, Bayonetta, and the others, who were very close, spat out a mouthful of blood in the shock wave. Then they were instantly blown away and rolled for an unknown distance. Even Roy, Julia, and the others, who were relatively far away, were sent flying as though they had been hit by a heavy hammer when the shock wave arrived a moment later.
The power of the shockwave spread across the entire Heavenly Realm. As the distance traveled increased, the power of the shockwave gradually decreased. This was the power of a God's explosion. Its power was no less than a million-ton nuclear weapon …
During the process of being sent flying, Roy tried his best to protect Julia and the others. Looking at the scene after Jubileus exploded, he could not help but be glad that he had not approached. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse had suffered such an explosion at close range. Even if they did not die, they would probably be severely injured.
The night sky and starry sky that covered the entire Heaven Realm were blown away. The sky of the Heaven Realm once again became incomparably clear. Even the Holy Light that filled the air in the past was now completely gone.
At the center of the explosion, there was only a huge ball of golden soul light floating in the air.
After being blown nearly four to five kilometers away, Roy and Julia finally withstood the power of the shockwave and forcefully stabilized their bodies. When they looked up, they saw the enormous golden soul in the distant sky.
To be precise, they did not see it because it was too far away, and their line of sight could no longer reach it. So they actually sensed it. The presence of this golden soul was too strong!
After Roy activated Radiation Vision, he saw that the soul was continuously radiating electromagnetic waves. Unlike any soul he had seen in the past, Jubileus's soul was still radiating light and heat after being exposed.
Of course, only angels and demons could see and sense this soul. The humans who were unfortunate enough to enter here because of the world fusion could not see it. They could only feel that there seemed to be something very special and incomparably awe-inspiring in the sky.
Even when the soul of a god was exposed and at its weakest moment, it still felt full of pressure …
Roy knew very well that the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse had only destroyed Jubileus's body. Before her soul was destroyed, she would not completely die, so Roy definitely could not let this soul escape. It was enough for Mundus's soul to escape once. If Jubileus's soul also escaped, it would bring him endless trouble.
However, before Roy could rush toward the soul, it turned into a golden stream of light and flew toward Roy.
Roy was stunned for a moment before realizing what was going on. Jubileus's soul was not coming for him but for … Julia!
Putting himself in her shoes, what would he do if his body was destroyed and only his soul was left?
He had two choices. He could either escape immediately or find a body as soon as possible and attach his soul to it!
Under normal circumstances, a body could not accommodate two souls, but a powerful foreign soul could eliminate the soul in the original body and then occupy this body. This was the commonly known phenomenon of 'possession'. Although the coordination and adaptability of the seized body and the foreign soul would be very poor, it was much better than exposing the soul to the air.
It had to be known that coordination and adaptability could be reduced through soul frequency modulation in the future. As long as the crisis passed, the foreign soul could even directly abandon this body and find a suitable body to resurrect.
The situation referred to above referred to the situation where the body to be possessed and the soul were not the same. Then, what if the original soul of this body was of the same origin as the foreign soul?
When analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of clones in the past, Roy had actually considered a possibility. High-level demons split soul fragments to create clones not only to increase their means of hunting souls but also to preserve themselves. After all, demons traveled to the Infinite Worlds and could die at any time due to powerful enemies. If their bodies were destroyed and their souls could escape, then the clones they created could become a means of protection. This was like always leaving a portion of the bottom line when gambling. This way, even if they lost, they would have the capital to make a comeback.
Due to the homology of the soul of the clone and the main body, there was no difference in coordination and adaptability. At most, it would be changing to a body with slightly lower strength, and there would be no other effect.
And Julia's soul came from Jubileus's soul fragment, which was equivalent to Julia being her clone. Now that Jubileus had lost her body, a ready-made clone was right in front of her. Of course, it was impossible for her to run away, so possessing Julia became her best choice.
Even though Julia was a fallen angel and used dark power, this was no problem for a soul with a divine spark like Jubileus. As long as she possessed Julia's body, she could purify the dark power in Julia at any time and restore her angel identity.
It was troublesome to describe, but in fact, this judgment happened in an instant in Roy's mind. After understanding Jubileus's intentions, Roy could not help but grin sinisterly.
Jubileus's thoughts were quite beautiful. She clearly saw that Roy was already guarding Julia, but she still rushed over regardless. Did she think that a demon lord like Roy could not do anything to her soul?
Indeed, even the soul of a Goddess of Light was filled with infinite holy light power. When blooming with immense light and heat, no demon could devour such a soul. At least before becoming a demon king, no demon dared to devour Jubileus's soul. It was the same for Roy. The soul of a god was poison to him.
This was what Jubileus relied on. Without the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse stopping her, she could completely ignore Roy's existence and directly smash her soul into Julia's body.
However, just as Jubileus's soul flew over and was about to reach Roy and Julia, a strange thing suddenly appeared in Roy's hand.
It was a cube about the size of a basketball and looked like an iron box made of metal. This iron box had some very complicated patterns engraved on it, and it floated above Roy's palm, constantly rotating and changing angles.
When Jubileus's soul flew over, Roy gently threw the iron box out.
The moment it left Roy's palm, the iron box suddenly opened, and the six sides separated into six iron plates. After Jubileus's soul crashed into the encirclement of these six iron plates, they instantly closed together and wrapped her entire soul in the box!
Souls were originally invisible matter, and it was impossible for ordinary metal boxes to trap them. But Jubileus found that her soul could not escape through the metal box. Her entire soul was trapped in the box, and under the compression of the box, it filled the entire space.
Her soul hit left and right in the box, causing it to shake violently, but it could not rush out.
"W-what is this?!" Jubileus shouted in panic in the box. A container that could trap the soul of a god was beyond her understanding.
"Hahahaha!" Roy spread his demon wings and laughed loudly in the air. He said to Jubileus in the box, "Stop struggling. This is a divine artifact specially made to trap your soul!"
Julia and Benia returned to their senses and looked at the metal box curiously. They asked curiously, "Huh? Isn't this your Horadric Cube? "
That's right. This box was indeed an item that Roy had created before, the Horadric Cube. But in order to facilitate the separation of everyone's Ouroboros Marks after obtaining the Möbius Marks, Roy had specially spent a considerable amount of souls to upgrade the Horadric Cube.
The current Horadric Cube was version 2.0. Roy called it, hmm … hmm …
Kanai's Cube …
