Chapter 69 The Battlefield of Gods
The next morning, on Jingyang Mountain Road.

Vultures hovered overhead, while hyenas barked on the ground.

Everywhere you look, there is a scene of devastation after the storm.

Forests were destroyed, villages were uprooted, roads were submerged...

Interspersed among them were the cries of the mountain people who had managed to escape, as well as the corpses of the Gui Rong clan and slaves who had died in the chaos.

The closer you are to the center of the battlefield and the center of the storm, the more corpses you will see.

Using "mountains of corpses and seas of blood" to describe it might be an exaggeration.

But "corpses strewn everywhere" is undoubtedly the most vivid description of this scene.

However, once they reached the battlefield where the two gods were at their core, the number of vultures, hyenas, and corpses decreased strangely and drastically.

Because all sorts of deformed and bizarre plants are the "main characters" here.

Roots and vines tearing the earth apart...

A giant carnivorous plant capable of swallowing a person whole...

A humanoid plant evolved from humans, which emits mournful howls at night...

Add to that lightning-attracting tree that, despite being withered, still emitted lightning due to its tenacious vitality...

It can be said that this core battlefield is the home ground of these terrifying plants.

Even creatures like vultures and hyenas will actively avoid this eerie and ominous place.

However, there are always exceptions.

In this place where terrifying plants gather, there are still signs of mountain people barely surviving.

Although their numbers are far fewer than those of the mountain people on the outermost edge, they are still a considerable number.

When the eagle-like creature, E'tu, circled over this region, it witnessed this scene of hellish beauty.

call!
Its outstretched wings suddenly contracted, and the powerful eagle pierced the sky like lightning.

At this moment, E'tu had no time to pay attention to the situation of the mountain people, because he had already noticed the mangled corpse under the lightning tree.

call!
When the rabbit landed, it transformed back into its rabbit form.

Only then did he truly see the mangled corpse—except for the head, which was still intact, the other limbs looked as if they had been blown apart from the inside by a bomb.

Fortunately, Li Boyang's divination results were available in advance, so E'tu was already mentally prepared for this.

"Even if this isn't your body, you've used it for so many years, why ruin it like this!"

Suppressing her discomfort, E'tu muttered something under her breath.

After circling the shattered corpse a few times, E'tu finally decided that the human form was more convenient.

Then, E'tu rolled over on the spot and transformed back into his previous boyish form.

"You've lived a pretty miserable life, and in the end, I'm the only one left to collect your corpse."

He took out a piece of animal hide that Xi Luo had given him earlier.

E'tu began to carefully wrap up the shattered fragments of limbs.

Amazingly, the wrapped-up limb fragments were restored.

Especially after the rabbit put the only intact head into the animal skin, a complete body was restored by that animal skin.

Apart from no longer breathing and being pale, she looked almost exactly the same as the old woman she was when she was alive.

"It's amazing!"

Upon seeing this, E'tu couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

According to Xi Luo, the animal hide came from a peculiar creature called "Luo Lu".

The deer possesses the ability to heal other creatures; any wound it licks will automatically heal.

After its death, if a skilled sorcerer can skin it and soak it in the blood of a deer, they can create a "Luo Qiu" that can heal most injuries. Of course, Luo Qiu can only heal injuries; it cannot bring the dead back to life.

Therefore, the old woman is now just a soulless, lifeless corpse.

Due to the lack of blood in her body, the old woman's corpse was as stiff as a zombie, showing no signs of life whatsoever.

"Grandma, I'll take you home right now!"

Just as E'tu was about to pick up the old woman's body and return to Gao Village Town.

Suddenly, they discovered that some villagers had come to them and knelt down on the ground not far away.

It is obvious that these mountain people noticed the whole process of E'tu collecting the old woman's body, which is why they chose to kneel and worship.

"you……"

He looked around hesitantly, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

E'tu, who had been walking away, stopped abruptly.

Because in the eyes of these mountain people, E'tu is not only seen as awe and worship, but also as a kind of heartfelt gratitude.

They were in awe of the abilities E'tu had demonstrated, and also grateful that he had come to collect the old woman's body.

These mountain people witnessed the entire battle between the two gods, and also watched as the arrogant Gui Rong clan was transformed into humanoid plants by the female barbarians.

The mountain people are just uneducated and ignorant, not really stupid.

They certainly knew why they had survived and how they had gained the protection of these strange plants.

It's no exaggeration to say that without the protection of these strange plants...

Leaving aside the wild beasts that constantly coveted flesh and blood, the plagues and diseases alone were enough to make the remaining mountain people wish they were dead.

Do you have any requests?

"For the sake of Grandma, as long as it's not too outrageous, I can help you achieve it."

After a brief hesitation, E'tu ultimately couldn't bring himself to leave.

After all, although E'tu was a spirit, he had long since become aware of human nature.

In addition, these mountain people were all people that the female barbarians had risked their lives to protect...

E'tu felt that helping them within his capabilities was his duty and obligation.

“We have nothing left, and we have nothing left to want.”

After exchanging bewildered glances, a representative of the mountain people raised his head and spoke to E'tu.

"Your ability to give this shaman a proper burial is already the greatest help you can give us."

Looking sadly at the old woman's body, the representative of the mountain people let out a heartfelt sigh.

"We originally intended to collect the witch's body ourselves, but this big tree is preventing us from getting close to her..."

"Now that our wish has been fulfilled, it's time for us to join our family."

When they said this, all the mountain people, including this representative, clearly showed a death wish.

Their homeland was destroyed by the Guifang Kingdom, and their families were slaughtered by the Guirong Clan...

Only a group of young and strong men have survived to this day, and they have long since lost much of their will to live.

"The old woman tried so hard to save you, and you're just going to die like this?"

Whether it was grief and indignation or helplessness, E'tu suddenly raised his voice and roared.

"Go south to Gao Village and Li Village. There, someone will tell you how to survive!"

"If you still want to die by then, go to Grandma's grave and tell her yourself!"
