An invasion from the Abyss? I, a demonic cultivator, laughed.

Chapter 427: The arrival of the true body
"boom!"

A dazzling white streak flashed across the sky, and when the blinding light faded, all that could be seen was the lizard messenger with his body pierced through.

Not only that, after the light arrow pierced through it, it split into countless tiny light arrows that seemed to have their own consciousness, like embroidery needles threading a needle, and killed all of the divine messenger's personal guards!

This sudden change in the situation shocked the onlookers once again. The fact that Cang Kai was reborn and greatly strengthened was already a fantasy, so what was going on with this silver bow that suddenly appeared and had incredible power?

Only the king stared wide-eyed, muttering incredulously, "The power of civilization! It must be the power of civilization! My uncle's guess has come true!"

But after the initial excitement, he quickly calmed down.

Even if it really is the power of civilization, so what?
No matter how strong their desires may be, how can they compare to the power of the gods?
Outside of the ceremony, the people also had this idea.

The scene of the deity appearing earlier, destroying the floating gunboat with irresistible power with just a soft hum, is still vivid in my mind.

So how could anyone resist a colossal object thousands of meters tall, reduced to burning wreckage as it fell from the sky?
So they remained prostrate on the ground, some of them never even raising their heads, unaware that the lizard messenger had been killed!

"Gods."

Shia and the others also looked up at the thunderclouds that were constantly rolling and roaring, which were triggered by the altar. If the gods really descended, then nothing would change!

"Boom!"

A thunderclap suddenly exploded in the sky! The thunderclouds seemed to be absorbed by some force, rapidly contracting towards their center!
The next instant, a huge crack opened in the sky! The clouds in the entire sky seemed to be pushed by an unseen force and cleared away in an instant!

Behind the crack, a gigantic creature covered in huge scales, whose entire form was obscured, was writhing!
Suddenly, a reptile claw, hundreds of meters wide and with skin as rough as rock, emerged from it!
The claw grabbed the crack and pulled it downwards with a vengeance! Instantly, the crack, which was originally only a kilometer wide, was widened by a factor of two!
"Cang Kai".

A vast and majestic aura emanated from the crack.

"I now grant you the title of my divine messenger."

“Swear allegiance, receive the seal of God, and I assure you that you and your people will be free.”

"This world will be entirely under your control!"

As the divine will spread outwards, everyone stood frozen in disbelief!

Especially the elite class, they were so frightened that they almost collapsed to the ground!
They originally thought that after the gods descended, they would ruthlessly and mercilessly suppress this person who dared to kill even the divine messenger and desecrate the dignity of the gods!

But unexpectedly, the other party bestowed such an honor upon Cang Kai!

If Cang Kai really accepts, wouldn't those original ruling class be purged without any doubt?

The people were overjoyed; they never dreamed that such a good thing would suddenly fall from the sky!
Cang Kai became a divine messenger and the queen of this world, so their situation must be much better now!
They all looked up, eager to hear Cang Kai's agreement.

However, under everyone's gaze, Cang Kai's face remained expressionless as he calmly raised the large silver bow in his hand.

The next instant, with a crisp taut string, a beam of light much thicker than before shot out, like a meteor, and struck the beast's claw that was sticking out of the gap!

Everyone stared wide-eyed in disbelief, looking at Cang Kai as if he were a madman!

But something even more incredible happened!

As the light arrow pierced the thick joint of the beast's claw, it burst forth with intense light, and blood and flesh splattered at the point of impact, creating a deep hole that revealed the bone!

The god was actually injured by this attack!
"Roar!!!"

A roar of shock and rage came from the crevice, shaking the entire world as if it were the end of the world!
All the people looked on in fear, glancing around in terror and cursing Cang Kai for his ungratefulness.

However, the high-level experts all realized that something was wrong!
"While the roar was certainly impressive, its power didn't seem to be as great as before!"

Shea looked at the crack in the sky, as if she understood something.

"Those beast claws are not the true form of that extraterrestrial demon!"

"The divine messenger died too quickly; its true form hasn't even arrived yet! We have no choice but to use the power of its avatar to stabilize the rift!"

"In other words, this extraterrestrial demon is currently in a state where it can only be attacked unilaterally!"

"Moreover, in order to maintain their avatars across space, the energy required for the extraterrestrial demon to withstand the same attacks will increase exponentially!"

If we really want to stop the extraterrestrial demon from descending, now is the best time!

"But."

Thinking of the immense power of the extraterrestrial demons, Shia hesitated.

Even with all the negative conditions, it's still an extraterrestrial demon! Can they really shake it with just their own strength?
The answer is obviously no.

This was just an avatar, and Cang Kai's full-force attack could only leave a barely noticeable wound on one of the avatar's claws compared to its size.

How many more times can he use such an attack? And how much civilizational power does he have left to squander?

After a moment of silence, Xia bit her lower lip and finally took a half step back, choosing to stand by and watch.

The gap in strength is too great; even if the power of civilizations were combined, there would still be no chance of victory.

But just as she was making up her mind, a streak of light suddenly rose from the ground!

Almost simultaneously, several more streaks of light rose up. These streaks increased in number, rising from different areas and directions throughout the ceremony venue, but their direction was firm, pointing directly at the giant beast claw in the sky!
Those were actually rebel soldiers who had taken to the air!
Even though the strongest among them was only at the general level, they still charged towards the giant beast claw in the sky without hesitation!

Some of them had even fought and killed each other during the previous ceremony! But now they seemed to have become comrades-in-arms who shared a common hatred for the enemy!

"This"

Shea's eyes widened, completely unable to comprehend what was happening before her.

Why do these people, who should know that they are as weak as ants in the face of the gods and that their participation or not will not change the course of the battle, choose to seek death?
Why do they, who were previously bound by the ritual and killed each other, unable to even rebel against it, now have the courage to charge at the gods?

Shea didn't know why, but a strong desire to charge forward with them arose within her!

Even Shia herself didn't know where this desire came from or why it was born!
Shia unconsciously clenched her fist, and at that moment she was shocked to discover that as these streams of light rose, Cang Kai's aura suddenly began to surge rapidly! The silver giant bow in his hand also seemed to have taken some kind of powerful tonic, shining brightly!

An invisible vortex seemed to form around him, and unseen forces were continuously gathering towards him!

Suddenly, a thought popped into Shia's mind. Even she, an outsider, couldn't help but want to charge alongside the rebels; what would the oppressed and tormented people outside the ceremony think?
Although Shia couldn't see what was happening outside the ceremony venue, she could almost imagine the anger and resentment flashing in the eyes of the kneeling and prostrate people!
"General, let us charge with you one more time!"

"kill!!!"

Despite there being only a hundred people, the earth-shattering battle cries resounded throughout the entire hunting grounds—no, not just the hunting grounds, but the whole world seemed to be echoing with a silent battle horn!

All the wishes of everyone were fully realized at this moment!
"Zheng!"

The giant bow in Cang Kai's hand shone brightly. With the sound of the bowstring being released, which pierced through the clouds and split rocks, a beam of light far more dazzling than before tore through the sky and entered the dark spatial rift!
The next instant, the beast's claws that were gripping the crack suddenly retracted, and at the same time, a sharp scream came from the crack!

The cry was different from the previous purely angry roar; this time it was also filled with disbelief and pain!

Without a doubt, this blow truly dealt a severe blow to the god!
"This is the legendary relic of civilization!" Shia looked at Cang Kai with delight. "If only we could use it a few more times!"

Suddenly, her thoughts came to an abrupt halt.

Because she saw Cang Kai, who was holding a giant bow not far away, whose hair had turned completely white at some point. His once muscular body had withered like that of an old man on the verge of death, and his arm holding the bow was like a withered branch, even trembling slightly under the weight of the great bow!

The silver bow had also completely dimmed, as if the previous strike had exhausted all the accumulated power of civilization in the entire world.

Suddenly, Cang Kai's body went limp and he fell toward the ground!

With a startled cry, almost without thinking, the power of her blood crystals erupted with a blinding crimson light, carrying her across thousands of meters in an instant to catch Cang Kai.

"what happened to you?"

Shea asked anxiously, while simultaneously using her healing skills to heal Cang Kai.

Blood Crystal Power originates from the source of life and, in addition to its combat capabilities, also possesses extremely strong healing abilities.

However, despite the flash of crimson light, Cang Kai remained completely unchanged.

Just as Shia was getting anxious, a withered arm suddenly grabbed her arm.

Xia lowered her head and met Shang Cangkai's piercing gaze!
"Did we win?"

"Don't worry, let me heal your wounds first, your body."

"Did we win?"

Cang Kai snarled, his withered fingers digging deep into Xia's arm.

Shea opened her mouth, but before she could speak, a deafening roar exploded in her ears!

Shea and Cang Kai looked up together, only to see a huge monster emerging from the spatial rift!
Eight enormous reptilian claws gripped the edge of the spatial rift, tearing it several times its original size. A body over three thousand meters long, resembling a giant mountain, emerged from it, with a bloody hole in its chest, from which dark red blood dripped out like a waterfall!
"Roar!!!"

The lizard-like, ferocious head roared furiously, and its eight giant claws exerted force once more, further widening the spatial rift!

An aura so powerful it instilled despair emanated from the enormous monster, instantly extinguishing the light in Cang Kai's eyes.

"This is the true form descending."

"It still failed."

Previously, his eyes seemed to contain the suffering that the people of this world had endured for thousands of years, but now, all that suffering has crushed him.

Outside the ceremony, everyone looked on in despair as they watched the enormous, unbelievable figure crawling out of the crack.

Everyone looked ashen-faced, their eyes devoid of any light.

Is the world's struggle ultimately futile before the divine?
No matter how strong the belief or how moving the dedication, it cannot change the power disparity in the physical world.

But just when everyone was in complete despair, a burst of intense light suddenly erupted from the spatial rift!
Before anyone could react, a dozen giant swords, each a hundred meters long, suddenly emerged from behind the spatial rift and pierced through the body of the God of Hunting!

The god of the hunt, with his enormous lizard head, suddenly turned around, revealing an expression of shock and anger: "It's you!"

But in the next instant, all that anger turned into fear!

"Wait! What is that?!"

A tremendous force reverberated throughout the hunting grounds, but as soon as the force subsided, to everyone's disbelief, the God of Hunting's enormous body suddenly began to disintegrate!
Instead of the blood and flesh splattering from the attack, it disintegrated like a collapsing block, starting from the head and breaking down into the most basic particles one by one!
In less than a breath, half of the Hunting God's head had disappeared. He let out a terrified scream, and his entire body shrank into the rift. As his eight claws retracted one by one, the spatial rift in the sky also disappeared.

"."

"This"

Everyone was stunned, unable to understand what had happened, and some even wondered if they were under too much pressure and had gone insane.

At first glance, it seems that the god of the hunt was attacked in some way and fled in fear.

But how is this possible?

That's a god! What could be something that even gods fear?
Only Cang Kai's eyes widened suddenly, and he murmured, "It's Him, He's here."

"Who?" Shia asked, looking bewildered.

Cang Kai did not answer, but stared at the spot where the rift disappeared, and slowly said, "I don't know either, but if I'm not mistaken, we should be able to see Him soon."

Almost the instant the words fell, the void suddenly twisted, and another spatial rift opened.

Shea instantly looked on high alert, but this time the spatial rift was only a few meters wide, and the person who walked out of it was just an ordinary-looking adult man wearing a mask.

Humanity?

Shia froze on the spot, somewhat doubting her eyes. Even a Cthulhu monster covered in tentacles crawling out of the crack wouldn't have surprised her this much.

Could it be that the powerful extraterrestrial demon was forced back by the man before him?

Cang Kai quickly confirmed her guess. The man, whose life force had been drained, struggled forward, cradling the silver bow in his hands and raising it high as if presenting a treasure.

"My lord, you restored my physical body and saved my people. I have no way to repay you, so please accept this treasure! It is only a fraction of your kindness!"
