Chapter 58 The Priest Who Wields the Power of the Gods

"Blessing ritual?"

"You are not a shaman, you are a priest!"

Shocked, Mu Zheng's gaze towards the old woman no longer held any contempt.

"Which god are you a priest of?"

"No wonder you dared to stand up for these slaves!"

"We, the Five Gods, have always been tolerant of priests who can communicate with the gods..."

“If you are willing to join us, we may stop advancing this time, and it is even possible that we will release these slaves.”

Mu Zheng wasn't using any delaying tactic; he genuinely thought so.

Priests who can communicate directly with the gods are few and far between, and priests who can bear such terrifying divine power are even fewer.

At this moment, the old woman even reminded Mu Zheng of the former high priest of the Ghost Kingdom—the blasphemer who betrayed the Five Gods.

"Now that I possess the 'truth,' do you think you still have the right to negotiate with me?"

Standing on the trembling earth, the old woman's figure remained as steady as Mount Tai.

The next second, the old woman stretched out her palm towards Mu Zheng and the others, and a suffocating sense of oppression followed.

boom!
Realizing the danger, Mu Zheng did not hesitate at all and immediately pounced on You Zhong, knocking him to the ground.

However, although Maki and Yushige escaped this crisis.

However, the black beasts they rode were skewered together like candied hawthorns by two earth spikes.

boom! boom! boom!
They showed no intention of stopping, and one after another, spikes began to rise from the ground.

Because the area affected by these spikes was so wide, it seemed to stretch on forever.

"you!"

He stared at the old woman opposite him with eyes wide open in fury.

Mu Zheng then realized that the attack was not only aimed at him and You Zhong.

The old woman's attack range covered the entire team; it was an attack targeting all members of the Gui Rong clan.

Fortunately, although these spike attacks were sudden, the Gui Rong clan was no ordinary elite force.

With formidable combat power far exceeding the average quality of this era.

Most of the eight hundred Gui Rong clan members managed to evade the attacks of these earth spikes.

Of the remaining Gui Rong clan members who were attacked, only a few unlucky ones had their bodies pierced through.

"Assemble the entire army!"

Suddenly raising his voice, Mu Zheng's voice resounded for kilometers around.

This was certainly not the volume a normal human should produce; rather, it was the wind actively amplifying his voice at that moment.

This is the power of the priests, and also the power of the five directional gods.

It is obvious that even though he was eliminated from the regular priesthood, Mu Zheng still possessed the ability to communicate with the five gods.

In fact, all eight hundred members of the Gui Rong clan possessed similar abilities; the only difference was their strength.

It was thanks to the warning from the Five Gods that they were able to evade the old woman's sudden attack.

"Draw your swords! Charge!"

The first to draw his sword was Mu Zheng, who flipped over and charged at the old woman opposite him without hesitation.

boom!
In a flash, the old woman raised her hand again.

A sharp, metallic spike pierced through the ground, its target clearly aimed at Mu Zheng.

This time, even with the warning from the Five Gods, Mu Zheng was still unable to dodge the old woman's attack.

Clang!
In an instant, the sacrificial ironware, blessed by the five gods, was shattered by the earth spikes.

As for Mu Zheng, the owner of the long sword, his body was pierced by fragments of iron, leaving him covered in blood.

"Muzheng!"

Seeing this, Youzhong, who had finally gotten up in a disheveled state, didn't hesitate for a moment and drew his long sword, rushing towards the old woman. The Guirong clan was not unfamiliar with fighting against priests of the gods; their combat experience was quite extensive.

They just didn't expect that someone would dare to openly intercept them.

What surprised them even more was that this seemingly frail old woman could unleash such terrifying power.

It should be understood that the favor of the gods is indeed the priest's strongest trump card.

However, such a large-scale use of divine power is not a good thing for the priests themselves.

Each deity has different preferences, and the price to pay for using divine power naturally varies as well.

Even the most benevolent deity's power can be terrifyingly corrupting to mortals.

"You're courting death!"

Youzhong suddenly swung his longsword, and the raging wind instantly transformed into sharp blades.

Faced with such a sharp attack, the old woman simply turned slightly to the side, and a wildly growing vine formed a plant wall in front of her.

call out!call out!call out!
The vines were quickly cut apart, and the wind blades were gradually neutralized.

Just as the old woman was about to raise her hand again, a sound that shook the earth suddenly came from the group.

Those were the Gui Rong clan's scouts who had finally realized what was happening; they were the most elite of the Gui Rong clan's warriors.

As dozens of warriors rode black beasts out of the ranks.

Any slave who dared to stand in their way became prey for the strange beasts.

These black beasts were not the warhorses Li Boyang remembered, but ferocious beasts that fed on tigers and leopards and were bloodthirsty and warlike.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

……

The scene of dozens of man-eating beasts charging together was beyond spectacular.

Ignoring the threat of the earthquake, they traversed the sharp spikes in the ground...

The dozens of black beasts were as agile as apes, yet as ferocious as tigers and leopards, and quickly approached the old woman.

Most importantly, behind these scouts, the Gui Rong clan members, who had also realized what was happening, rushed out of the slave group and charged toward her location with fierce expressions.

As elite warriors who once fought against the gods, the Gui Rong clan has never lacked ferocity.

In contrast, the old woman, despite possessing divine power unimaginable to ordinary priests, was like a novice who had not undergone any professional training.

Clang!
In just one encounter, more than a dozen strange beasts carried their masters close to the old woman.

The sound of longswords being drawn was the same, and although these Gui Rong clan members were not as aggressive as You Zhong, they still wielded whirlwind blades.

"Ho!"

The weathered voice was like that of an old lion.

The old woman's eyes widened as a seed fell from her sleeve and quickly took root and sprouted.

sizzle...

The attackers closest to it had no time to react before being swallowed whole by the rapidly expanding giant carnivorous plant.

Whether it's a strange beast or the Ghost Rong clan...

Compared to that enormous carnivorous plant, we are as fragile and insignificant as ants at the bottom of the food chain.

"Children! Go on a killing spree!"

After releasing her long-suppressed murderous intent, the old woman's face seemed to become as terrifying as a demon.

The seeds of strange plants were flung out, and upon contact with the ground, they took root and sprouted, growing into bloodthirsty and brutal cannibalistic plants.

The real battle has only just begun from this moment.

The silent charge of the Gui Rong tribes stood in stark contrast to the terrified slaves around them.
