Searching for the best path, starting from Renjia Town

Chapter 231 A Mere Foreign God
Thump~!

The next moment, the old man dropped his cane and suddenly knelt down in front of Li Kunshan.

Putting your hands together in prayer signifies a form of worship.

This……

Li Kunshan's eyes widened, and he was caught off guard and stunned.

He's already surrendered before even fighting! What happened to that arrogant attitude he had just displayed?

Boom~Boom~!

Before they could recover from the shock, a series of booming sounds suddenly came from the sky.

"This is……"

Startled, Li Kunshan looked up and saw the world change color in an instant as a divine light shone down from afar.

"interesting."

Li Kunshan smiled and couldn't help but re-examine the old man.

Please God.

These seven strange demons each possess unique skills: two are samurai, two are ninjas, and the other three are similar to clergy.

The gods of island nations differ from those of the vast Central Plains. In such small places, even random mountain spirits and wild ghosts can be worshipped as gods. For example, the spirits commanded by the old woman are actually her ancestors, belonging to the ancestor worship within animistic polytheistic beliefs.

The little girl's snow woman is actually a monster, a form of spirit worship.

This approach resulted in the island nation having an unusually large number of gods, reportedly 80, 800 million, or even 1500 million.

Island nations are small-minded and arrogant, and they take pride in it, but in reality, they are all third-rate idiots.

However, compared to the gods worshipped by this old man, the god he serves is clearly much stronger and should be a legitimate deity with a wide following.

Buzz~!

As he pondered, a figure materialized within the divine light, clad in armor, holding a pagoda in one hand and a magic staff in the other.

"Could it be..."

Li Kunshan only had a general understanding of the island nation's deities from watching some anime in his previous life.

However, the one in front of me has very distinctive features, and I couldn't help but have some guesses.

"O Vaishravana, the God of Immeasurable Wisdom, please unleash your divine power and punish this sinner from China!"

The deity appeared, and the old man was filled with excitement. He continued to kowtow more vigorously while cautiously making his request.

really.

Upon hearing this name, Li Kunshan couldn't help but smile.

Bishamonten, one of the Seven Lucky Gods of the island nation, is known as the god of boundless wisdom with inexhaustible intelligence and is also called Tamonten.

As a god of fortune, he has a large following in the island nation, somewhat similar to the God of Literature here.

However, in the island nation, Bishamonten is a war god!
With both clubs and armor, you can tell just by looking at his attire.

As a god of war, he is extremely skilled in combat, in addition to the divine power within the scope of his divine duties.

"God's punishment."

Vaishravana cast his gaze upon Li Kunshan with arrogance and disdain, as if looking at an ant. He uttered a soft shout, which, though not loud, contained divine power and instantly resounded throughout the heavens.

Before he finished speaking, he raised his precious staff at Li Kunshan. Without caring about anything else, he attacked immediately—truly befitting the banditry of their country.

Boom~!

The next moment, a divine light shot out from the treasure staff, heading straight for Li Kunshan.

Li Kunshan was prepared. After all, the other party was a righteous god. He instinctively wanted to dodge, but then stopped and frowned.

It looked like just an ordinary basic attack, but it completely 'covered' Li Kunshan. It was this feeling that made Li Kunshan realize, in the instant he tried to dodge, that no matter how he dodged or where he hid, he would eventually be struck by this divine light.

An attack that cannot be avoided?
It must be said, as expected of the god of wisdom, he really has something.

Bang~!

There was no time to think about anything else; Vaishravana's attack had already arrived. With a muffled thud, the protective spell in front of Li Kunshan shattered instantly.

Since there's no way to avoid it, the only option is to tough it out.

Boom boom boom~!

Immediately following, a series of muffled thuds followed as Vaishravana's attack shattered all of Li Kunshan's dozens of protective spells in an instant.

He is indeed a true god, and possesses considerable strength.

Boom~!

Finally, the divine power struck the ground, accompanied by a roar, sending rocks flying and dust billowing everywhere.

"so close."

Standing three zhang away, looking at the deep pit left on the ground, Li Kunshan clicked his tongue in a serious manner.

Although the protective spell was broken, it still provided a slight barrier, but only for a moment, enough for Li Kunshan to retreat and dodge. At the same time the protective spell was struck, the divine power's lock on Li Kunshan also failed.

"Bold mortal!"

Just as they were marveling at this, a rebuke rang out from Vaishravana.

The voice contained divine power, striking directly into Li Kunshan's soul.

How dare a mere mortal evade his punishment? And what's more, he actually managed to escape! This is a provocation against his divine authority!
"Ok?"

But what Vaishravana didn't expect was that, under his divine might, Li Kunshan, who was expected to kneel down immediately, stood there without changing his expression.

"whispering sound."

Looking up at the pretentious Vaishravana in the sky, Li Kunshan gave a disdainful snort.

He had already reached the sixth level of the Divine Refinement Realm, and was not far from the seventh level. This little soul impact thought it could shake his primordial spirit? He really had no self-awareness.

Boom~!

Seeing Li Kunshan's contempt, Vaishravana instantly flew into a rage.

For him, a true god, to be looked down upon by a mortal is not merely a provocation, but an utter disgrace.

Enraged, the sky shifted and the clouds changed. Vaishravana once again raised his magic staff, determined to make Li Kunshan, this arrogant mortal, regret ever being born.

Boom~Boom~!

But at that moment, a series of thunderclaps suddenly rang out. In the blink of an eye, before anyone could react, the thunder became more and more intense, and the entire area within a hundred miles was filled with thunder, just like boiling water in a pot.

"what happened?"

The old man, who had been kneeling on the ground, suddenly changed his expression and looked around with suspicion.

Not only in the sky, but also in all directions, within a radius of a hundred miles, lightning was densely packed, and the rolling thunder was poised to strike!
"Um?!"

Vaishravana also frowned, and his gaze towards Li Kunshan changed slightly.

He never expected that this mere mortal would possess such abilities.

At this moment, the area within a hundred miles was completely enveloped by lightning, resembling a thunderous hell.

Moreover, he could sense that within this range, Li Kunshan not only manipulated all the lightning but could also move at will. Therefore, even if he wanted to lock onto Li Kunshan again, it wouldn't be so easy.

As for the divine power completely covering and engulfing this area of ​​a hundred miles, if Vaishravana were truly present, there would naturally be no problem; it would only consume more divine power.

Unfortunately, at this moment, it was just a projection.

As one of the Seven Lucky Gods, with millions of believers, how could he possibly descend in his true form just because of the call of a believer?

"Let me show you what I'm capable of."

Li Kunshan looked up at Vaishravana and smiled slightly.

This Thunder Hell is like a domain, within which he not only has endless thunder to command, but he can also transform into thunder at any time and appear in any location.

It was a technique he created himself after years of refining his thunder magic!
"Not yet!"

But that wasn't enough. Li Kunshan's expression hardened, and he let out another loud shout.

Swish~!

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light flashed above the auspicious clouds, and figures appeared one by one.

The eight great generals of the Thunder Department, including the Left General of the Thunder Chariot and the Right General of the Thunder Chariot, the twenty-four immortal officials including the Chief Clerk of Thunder City and the Mighty Thunder Official, the divine attendants including the Purple Light Boy, the Register-Holding Boy, the Axe Envoy, and the Cloud Envoy, as well as the thirty-six Thunder Drum Warriors.

Accompanied by the power of thunder, there were over a hundred Thunder Gods!

"We have come here in accordance with the imperial decree of the Provincial Surveillance Commissioner!"

After appearing, they shouted in unison and respectfully bowed to Li Kunshan.

Li Kunshan stood still, hands behind his back, nodding slightly.

"What...what's going on?!"

Seeing this scene, the old Japanese soldier's face changed drastically again, and he couldn't help but tremble. He never expected that Li Kunshan could actually invoke the gods!

What surprised or baffled him even more was that Li Kunshan could summon so many gods at the same time. Moreover, it wasn't Li Kunshan begging these gods for help; on the contrary, these gods bowed down and obeyed Li Kunshan.

How could a mortal possibly be above the gods?

"Just a bunch of low-level gods!"

Seeing so many gods appear, Vaishravana was quite surprised.

But in order not to lose his dignity as a god, he showed disdain and still maintained a superior attitude.

"Take it."

Li Kunshan looked up and glanced at Vaishravana with a disdainful look, then let out a soft shout.

"Follow the law!"

The fact that a mere foreign god dared to cross the border without permission was already an offense, not to mention the provocative words just now. The generals of Lei's tribe were already indignant, and upon hearing Li Kunshan's order, they did not hesitate at all and immediately took action.

Boom~Boom~!

Countless bolts of lightning, like a violent storm, struck down upon Vaishravana.

"How dare you!"

Vaishravana's eyes widened, and he roared in anger.

The next moment, the pagoda in his hand flew up and stood above his head, releasing divine power to cover him completely and protect him inside.

The shield was struck by a dense barrage of lightning, like rain hitting glass, and remained unmoved for a time.

"Haha! Even if you outnumber me, what can you do to me!"

Seeing this, Vaishravana thought he was safe and could not help but laugh triumphantly.

"A mere barbarian god dares to show off his skills in front of us!"

Lei Bu's generals narrowed their eyes and suddenly increased their magical output with a cold shout.

Boom~Boom~!

The next moment, lightning bolts, both in quantity and power, far exceeded those before, and struck fiercely.

Buzz~!

Under the relentless onslaught of countless heavenly lightning bolts, the pagoda atop Vaishravana's head began to tremble violently.

"not good!"

The smug Vaishravana's expression changed drastically in an instant, and he hurriedly used all his divine power to maintain the protective barrier.

At the same time, there was also a sense of confusion: how could these low-level gods possess such powerful divine strength?

As the saying goes, "a frog in a well" and "arrogant and ignorant," how could a god from a tiny island nation, with such a small place, possibly have so many believers and receive so much incense offering? How could he possibly compare to the gods of a great nation?

Click~!

In just a moment, amidst the endless thunderstorm, the pagoda could no longer withstand the onslaught, and several cracks suddenly appeared.

Bang~!

Once the pagoda was destroyed, the protective shield, as if made of sugar glue, instantly crumbled and shattered.

"Oops!"

Vaishravana looked terrified, realizing the danger, and was about to use his abilities to escape.

Wow~!

Unfortunately, the lightning transformed into chains the next moment, binding him tightly in an instant.

"This this……"

Seeing this, the old Japanese soldier kneeling on the ground was completely dumbfounded.

He worshipped the omnipotent god day and night, but now he was like a prisoner. It was not just a collapse of faith, it was a complete collapse of the sky.

"Damn it! Bastards! Do you even know who I am?! I'm going to kill you all! I'll wipe you all out!"

After struggling to no avail, Vaishravana began to curse loudly.

They are utterly ill-mannered and lack any semblance of divine demeanor.

But soon he shut up, his face filled with terror.

Boom~Boom~!

Amidst the endless thunder, streaks of purple lightning appeared and converged above the head of Vaishravana.

Although the quantity was not large, less than a hundred times less than what the Thunder Generals had just unleashed, Bishamonten sensed a tremendous threat from these purple lightning bolts.

In an instant, a chill ran through me from the bottom of my heart, and my body trembled involuntarily.

Boom~!

Before Vaishravana could react, the purple lightning bolts had already converged and struck directly at his head.

"……Do not!"

Vaishravana opened his eyes wide and roared.

The next moment, it dissipated into countless light and shadow within the purple divine lightning.

"pity."

The Vaishravana had completely vanished, but no system notification sounded, and Li Kunshan couldn't help but shake his head.

Although Japan is a small country, it is still a legitimate god. I originally thought I might get a golden attribute.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. It was just a projection, like a clone, and he didn't actually kill Vaishravana, so naturally no entry for it was revealed.

"never mind."

"If it's not there, it's not there," Li Kunshan said without dwelling on it. Then, his gaze turned cold as he looked at the seven strange Japanese devils.

Boom~Boom~!

[Defeat a Japanese samurai to obtain the "Sword Mastery (Blue)" attribute!]

[Defeat the Japanese Divine Servant to obtain the Cold Resistance (Blue) stat!]

……

Several bolts of lightning struck, and seven system notifications sounded in succession.

Li Kunshan glanced at it; although it was still far from being a gold-level entry, it was still a small gain.

After eliminating these strange Japanese devils, Li Kunshan dusted himself off and left.

"This way."

The demolition mission is now complete, and Li Kunshan needs to inform the boss.

Although the headquarters is a bit far from here, at Li Kunshan's speed, he can arrive before dawn and still make it in time for the first pot of millet porridge in the morning.

"Ok?"

After walking two or three hundred miles, Li Kunshan suddenly stopped.

He took out a yellow talisman from his pocket, and the words 'Come quickly' gradually appeared on it.

Li Kunshan frowned. "Master has summoned me?"

He was busy fighting the Japanese, so why would his master summon him at this time? Although he didn't know, Uncle Jiu wasn't someone who didn't know what was important, so it must be something significant.

Thinking of this, Li Kunshan dared not delay and immediately changed direction, heading straight for Maoshan.

At eight o'clock in the morning, a figure came running from a distance at the foot of Maoshan Mountain; it was Li Kunshan.

Looking up at the somewhat abandoned mountain path, Li Kunshan put away his supernatural powers and walked up the mountain.

With his current level of cultivation, even walking normally would be incredibly fast.

In just a moment, they arrived at the gate of Yuanfu Palace.

"Meet Uncle Master!"

A young Taoist boy was sweeping at the entrance. When he saw Li Kunshan suddenly appear, he quickly stepped forward and bowed.

Li Kunshan nodded and stepped into Yuanfu Palace.

"How impressive!"

The young Taoist priest looked on with envy as he watched Li Kunshan's retreating figure.

At just over thirty years old, he was granted the title of High Cultivator, making him the youngest High Cultivator in Maoshan in nearly three hundred years. Moreover, judging from the current situation, he will be promoted to Second Rank True Person before the age of fifty, at which point he will be the youngest True Person in five hundred years.

Such achievements are truly enviable.

However, among the 37th generation disciples of Maoshan, this Uncle Li is already a legend.
