Chapter 182 The Great Battle of the Gods (33)

Guifang Kingdom, Yayi City.

Thanks to Li Boyang's series of actions, the area around Baidi Mountain has been able to return to a rare period of peace.

However, the Guifang Kingdom lacked a visionary like Li Boyang, skilled in manipulation, and a raging storm coupled with widespread flooding was devastating the region.

In particular, the water gods who came with the momentum were almost frenziedly destroying the land and mountains of the Ghost Fang Kingdom.

Among these battles, the one between Wuzhiqi and Tunchao was the most intense and agonizing.

On one side is the strongest water ape in the Central Plains, the culprit who single-handedly unleashed this catastrophic flood...

His power was never solely reflected in his status as a "god".

Their battle-hardened and versatile fighting techniques are also the source of their confidence in standing at the top.

It is no exaggeration to say that even without his identity as the "water god," Wuzhiqi would be a true war god.

The other side was once the god of the sea, and even though it was constrained by the five-god system for thousands of years, it eventually broke free from its shackles...

The more Tsurushi fought, the faster his past humanity and personality returned.

The loss of divinity weakened the power of the Tidebringers as a "natural disaster".

However, the return of humanity also allowed Him to regain the ability to learn and think.

Compared to purely natural disasters, the ability to think for oneself and to continuously learn is the key to whether a god is powerful.

It is evident that the response has evolved from purely natural disasters to various emergency measures that are adapting and changing.

While the absolute power of the Tide-Swallowing Clan is weakening, their difficulty in dealing with them is increasing dramatically.

However, the resurgence of the Tunchao clan was not the real headache for Wuzhiqi.

In his past military career, Wuzhiqi had encountered gods who were close to the limits of life.

Therefore, he knew clearly that this was merely a final burst of energy for Thunchao.

No country, no clan, no rites...

The Tunchao clan's self-awareness could not be maintained for long before Wuzhiqi shattered it with absolute violence.

That will be the time when Tunchao truly dies, and when Wuzhiqi gains another great general.

"Another deity?"

"Is this really just a small, isolated country?"

After once again shattering the incarnation of the Tunchao clan, Wuzhiqi turned his gaze to the distant city of Yayi.

When floods and torrential rains frequently ravaged the Ghost Fang Kingdom...

When the Hijikata clan carried out indiscriminate slaughter within the territory of the Oni-goro Kingdom...

In addition, there was the destruction caused by the water spirits and monsters brought by Wuzhiqi...

The plight of the people of Guifang is beyond description; it can no longer be described as miserable.

Despair and wailing were everywhere, and the priests could only temporarily protect the inner city of Cliff City by all means.

Under these circumstances, the long-dormant Houtian clan finally revived.

Vortex... Vortex... Vortex...

From nothing to something, from small to large, a storm that appeared out of nowhere surrounded the city of Ya Yi.

It quickly dispelled the torrential rain in the sky, the floods in the rivers, and the pervasive ghostly aura.

In a daze, a huge and angry face appeared in the sky above the city of Ya Yi.

Unlike the other four celestial gods among the Five Directions Gods.

Besides being the embodiment of storms, Houtianshi was also the ancestral god of the Guifang Kingdom.

The desperate cries of the people of Guifang Kingdom.

It stimulates His personification far more than any blood sacrifice or human sacrifice.

In fact, this is the key reason why the Houtian Clan, which had been severely damaged and dormant, was able to revive at this point in time.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

"The Houtian Clan... haven't abandoned us?"

Looking up at the massive storm in the sky, Xuan Hui's gaze seemed somewhat vacant.

Currently, all the priests of the Ghost Kingdom have been dispatched to provide disaster relief.

So apart from the guards who were still dutifully performing their duties, only Xuan Hui remained on this magnificent ancestral temple altar.

“Your ancestral gods certainly wouldn’t give up…”

Without a sound, a slightly eerie voice entered Xuan Hui's ears. Startled, Xuan Hui turned around abruptly and looked in the direction from which the voice came.

Gulu gulu...

It was a pool of blood built on an altar, originally used to hold the flesh and corpses of slaves.

But now, boiling blood and qi are constantly gushing out of that pool of blood.

"Who is this?"

When Xuan Hui looked closely, the boiling blood and qi had already materialized.

It was a water-type monster with the body of an ape, the tail of a snake, and its body covered with crimson scales.

"I am a water spirit, a scourge that brings you death and despair!"

Water spirits are born from springs and should be formless and intangible.

However, inspired by Wuzhiqi, it transformed into this form, able to freely enter and exit all water sources.

In most cases, the Water Spirits are the vanguard of Wuzhiqi's invasion.

Normally, however, a flood is enough to destroy everything in its path.

Only when faced with a tough nut to crack like Yayi City.

Only then will the water spirits infiltrate and undermine the city's defenses from within.

"Strong archers! Kill them!"

He suddenly raised his voice and roared, and the nearby guards immediately responded to Xuan Hui's call.

Unfortunately, after dozens of arrows pierced through the water spirit's body...

The water spirit remained standing, and even laughed eerily despite being covered in arrows.

"A mere ignorant commoner from a small country dares to try and harm me?"

Suddenly flinging the arrows from her body, Shui Mei shot and killed the guards who had attacked her earlier, amidst Xuan Hui's bloodshot eyes.

"You are looking for death!"

Suddenly waving the scepter in his hand, Xuan Hui spat out a mouthful of blood, and a vicious curse immediately descended upon Shui Mei.

Wow…

Sensing something was wrong, the water spirit tried to disperse.

To his astonishment, he discovered that a strange toxin was spreading within his body.

Even an invisible body made of blood and water can still be harmed and damaged by this toxin.

In the end, the water sprite, amidst its cries of resentment and anger, transformed into a mass of corrosive liquid and died.

"..."

Just as Xuan Hui breathed a sigh of relief and was about to check on the condition of the imperial guards...

Suddenly, shouts of battle came from below the altar.

Immediately following was the screams and wails of the entire city of Ya Yi.

It turns out that the water spirit that appeared earlier was just the beginning; many more water spirits, and even other monsters, have appeared in Cliff City.

If it weren't for the intimidation of the Houtian clan, no one would doubt whether the water deities who were reveling in the torrential rain outside the city would also appear in this city.

"How can this be……"

His eyes were wide open as he looked down at Yayi City.

This is the umpteenth time Xuan Hui has said this in the past few days.

In this flood caused by Wuzhiqi, the power of an individual seems so insignificant.

Even beings as powerful as gods are nothing more than this before the true might of Heaven.

The Guifang Kingdom, which had once destroyed countless other states, performed no better than those destroyed states when faced with such a life-or-death crisis.

call!call!call!
The fierce winds stirred up by Houtian clan echoed across this land, but torrential rains and floods were the main forces in this war.

This was a true war of annihilation, the final battle that would determine the life and death of the Guifang Kingdom.

For the first time, gods and all living beings had such a clear and unified goal—to survive.
