Chapter 218 The Great Battle Begins! The War Saint King!
Outside the Hidden Forest

Countless agile figures sped forward through the woods, heading towards the battlefield.

However, two people quietly left the group and ran away. They were Yuan Chu and Short-tailed Cat.

In a battle of this magnitude, the Primordial One's strength is insufficient to influence the outcome, and the Short-tailed Cat would die instantly from the aftershocks of the battle. Participating in such a battle would be too difficult and yield too little benefit for them, so it would be better for them to cause trouble elsewhere.

The world of Fengshenji is vast, and it's impossible for it to only have this one main storyline. There are likely hidden side quests, such as the search for hidden treasures, which is what they should be doing.

Following the myths within the story, searching for the hidden power within the world, similar to the legacy of the phoenix, this is the path they should take.

Ye Mingqiu didn't search for it because he had already encountered Fuxi, who was like a treasure trove. Learning various advanced energy application techniques and spell usage from him was extremely valuable in itself, so there was no need to waste time and energy searching for side quests.

As dusk fell and a cold wind rose, a chilling atmosphere enveloped the Shenyin tribe. Ye Mingqiu sat in the deserted tribe village, looking down as he flipped through an ancient book he had obtained from Fuxi.

The Complete Explanation of Divine Power

This is an ancient book that records techniques for using divine power. It contains a lot of valuable information and can be used as a reference when using other powers.

While reading this one book may not specifically grant you any particular skill, reading enough books and accumulating a large enough knowledge base will naturally lead to higher learning efficiency when learning new content in the future. It will also make it easier to apply what you've learned to other situations and master new content more quickly.

"Wow~"

Ye Mingqiu turned to another page, still holding the Divine Power Experiment in his hand, his expression calm and composed, not at all like someone about to face a great battle.

Compared to Hephaestus, a level 7 deity, these holy kings of the gods can only be considered a bunch of lolis.

If something unexpected happens, he can directly use the Sun Badge's [Eternal Sunlight]. Although the Sun Badge has limited durability and will explode after three uses, if he doesn't use the Sun Badge at the most crucial moment, then the badge is no different from not having the skill at all.

This is only a Tier 1 equipment. Using it in the most important battle of Tier 1 is already considered to have fully utilized its value. Intentionally not using it would be a real waste.

After a while, a faint sense of hostility drifted in from afar. Ye Mingqiu slowly closed the book, put it into his storage space, and looked at the handsome man floating in mid-air ahead.

"Xuanfeng?"

"Hmm, it's me. It seems you've already joined them. That's really bad." Xuanfeng had a relaxed smile on his face, and his body was radiating emerald green wind-attribute divine power.

But this was not a sign of an attack, but rather a preparation to turn and flee. He knew that the Heavenly Martial Saint King had been killed, and the naturally lazy and carefree Xuanfeng was unwilling to confront such an opponent head-on.

So he smiled and asked, "How about you just turn around and leave, and I'll pretend I didn't see you? We can live in peace, and I'll pretend I never saw you here, okay?"

"Okay, go ahead."

Ye Mingqiu replied with a smile.

“That won’t do. I’m here to investigate. If I leave now, things will get complicated later. Why don’t you go?” Xuanfeng said with a smile.

"If it's too difficult, then let's not do it!"

A terrifying glint flashed in Ye Mingqiu's eyes, and a surge of monstrous demonic power erupted forth.

The release speed of [Mahakala] is faster and the power is stronger than before, because he has strengthened the power of light and shadow once with the power of faith, and the improvement is relatively good.

The pitch-black power engulfed the sky and the earth like a surging tide. Xuanfeng Saint King retreated at top speed, but crashed into an invisible barrier. It was an invisible barrier made of Qi, a restrictive measure prepared in advance by Fuxi.

"hateful!"

Xuanfeng frowned and cursed under his breath, instantly guessing the origin of everything. He casually gathered divine power to shatter the barrier, but the domain of the Great Black Heaven had already locked him firmly.

In the endless abyss of darkness, there was no sound or warmth, only a figure holding a pillar of blood slowly walking towards him. Terrifying blood energy and killing intent burst forth from his body, piercing Xuanfeng's body like a sharp blade.

He looked at Ye Mingqiu approaching, but he wasn't too alarmed. Instead, he smiled and asked, "With such great power, why do you associate with these people? If you anger the heavens, none of you can bear the consequences."

"He never cared whether you lived or died."

Ye Mingqiu replied.

"."

Xuanfeng's expression turned grim. Although the other party's words were sharp, he had to admit that Heaven seemed to be true. He neither cared about how the gods developed nor whether they, the great gods and holy kings, lived or died.

But he was still puzzled and asked, "How did you know?"

"intuition."

".madman."

Xuanfeng couldn't help but say, "To dare to do this based on intuition, what else is that but madness?"
Given the Bloodthirsty Tyrant's status and abilities, and the current situation, he has no need to hide his relationship with Fuxi. Moreover, he is not the kind of god who beats around the bush, so what he is saying now is most likely true.

The next moment, a majestic holy light descended from the world beyond Mahakala, dispelling the darkness with its powerful and unstoppable force.

Beyond the darkness, countless gods, bathed in divine light, shone down from the sky onto the dark earth. The sky, obscured by the power of the abyss, was forcefully dispersed by another divine force, but it remained firmly attached to the ground, swaying with the gale.

Ye Mingqiu slowly raised his head, looking at the hundreds of gods standing in the sky, as well as the leading gods and holy kings. A smile slowly appeared on his face as he said, "What a grand display. Today's scheme is set up for Xuanfeng, but it is also set up for me, isn't it?"

"We are all just pawns."

Xuanfeng shrugged slightly, glanced at the void not far away, and said with a smile, "Hmm, I wonder if those traitors, monkeys, and shady flies are willing to stand up for you."

"piece?"

"Hahaha, hahaha. Hahahaha!"

Ye Mingqiu chuckled and repeated it, then suddenly burst out laughing, his voice growing louder and louder, his laughter like a thunderclap.

Xuanfeng and the gods of the sky looked at him with puzzled expressions. Judging from his current attitude, it seemed that the situation today was about to develop further, but they did not know his trump card.

Then, under the watchful eyes of the gods, Ye Mingqiu took a step forward. He slowly moved his neck, making a crisp sound, and his body rapidly grew larger in a short time, his aura becoming increasingly terrifying.

The pillar of blood in his hand was connected to his body, and a continuous stream of power flowed from it. At the same time, an even more ancient and powerful force burst forth from the Beast King's Crown, further amplifying and expanding the Bloodthirsty Tyrant's body, giving him an even stronger physique.

[Tyrant Form] + [Beast King True Form] It should be noted that a month ago, before Ye Mingqiu received the true teachings of divine power from Fuxi, he did not use the Beast King True Form when he defeated the Heavenly Martial Saint King.

The aura emanating from him at this moment far exceeded the expectations of the gods.

The tyrant, standing thirty meters tall, wielded a terrifying pillar of blood as he approached them, a cruel and tyrannical smile on his face. He continued, "Since when did you begin to have the illusion that you could surround and annihilate me?"

He crouched down slightly, and the power of the myriad phenomena instantly erupted. He exerted force with his legs, and his body shot towards the gods like a cannonball.

then
【The sun shines eternally】

Without any hesitation, the active power of the Sun Badge was instantly unleashed, and the dazzling light of the sun flashed and burst forth in an instant, the holy radiance sweeping over countless members of the divine race.

"boom!!!"

This was a sign of the impending transformation, and also a miracle of the sun rising on the ground. The terrifying flames of the sun devoured countless members of the divine race, creating a dazzling spectacle resembling the rising of a second sun, easily visible even from tens of kilometers away.

In the divine light of the blazing sun, there were no cries of pain and fear, only instantaneous annihilation. This was the ultimate destructive power originating from the Sun Badge, the terrifying power unleashed by the self-destruction of top-tier Radiant Gold equipment combined with the amplification of the host's abilities.

The prelude to the eternal blazing sun is a nuclear explosion. The reason it had no effect before was because Ye Mingqiu was facing a god-level powerhouse at the pinnacle of fire attribute - the God of Fire - Hephaestus.

Not everyone can be a Vulcan!

The light of the rising sun illuminated the world in an instant, far surpassing the power of the hidden gods, the underworld people, and the rebels. They were all shocked by this power; if they had been at the core of the nuclear explosion, they might not have survived.

After a brief burst of brilliance, the sun's rays gradually subsided, and the Bloodthirsty Tyrant inside had already generated a dazzling divine halo behind him. He floated in mid-air like a true deity, looking at the false god who had been killed in one blow, and couldn't help but show a disdainful smile on his face.

If he wasn't mistaken, these people would probably form some kind of formation, which would likely unleash a power far exceeding their own level.

But he won't give those people a chance; he'll charge straight into the crowd and detonate a nuclear bomb right from the start—that's the most efficient way.

As the smoke from the nuclear explosion dissipated, the number of gods was reduced by about two-thirds. The remaining gods were enveloped in a layer of golden light, which acted as an invincible shield, protecting them from even the blazing sun.

Is that power true Zen?

Ye Mingqiu had heard Fuxi say that Zhen Chan was the strongest among the Holy Kings, possessing power close to the level of laws. Almost no one in the God Clan could harm him in the slightest. He had mastered divine power to the highest degree, making him the strongest among the God Clan who was closest to the heavens.

"Blood Erosion, I advise you not to be so stubborn. Heaven may not care about the rise and fall of the gods, but he needs tools to do things for him. If the tools are damaged beyond repair or unable to solve problems, he will also be angry."

Within the divine race, a man also bearing a divine halo looked at the Bloodthirsty Tyrant with a detached hostility in his eyes. If possible, he also hoped to resolve this matter peacefully, given the Tyrant's overwhelming power.

If he expends too much energy on himself, the upcoming battles against the Underworld Clan, the human rebels, and the Hidden God Clan may become much more unpredictable, and he might even be defeated as a result, which would be unacceptable to him.

"You are the ones who want to besiege me, and you are the ones who want me to leave. You think you can just come and go as you please? It's not as simple as you think!"

The Bloodthirsty Tyrant roared and moved with lightning speed, arriving in front of Zhen Chan in an instant, his blood spear crashing down.

"boom!!"

A terrifying explosion rang out, and the True Zen Saint King was instantly knocked to the ground. Brilliant golden light shone on his body, and blood seeped from his parrying arm.

At the same time, a terrifyingly large wound suddenly appeared on Ye Mingqiu's arm, with scarlet blood flowing outwards. The blood spear connected to his arm quickly absorbed the blood and transformed it into pure life force, which was then injected into the host's body, allowing him to recover rapidly.

Ability that reflects damage?
Bloodthirsty Tyrant's gaze sharpened, he quickly withdrew his hand, and retreated to observe, carefully examining the formidable enemy before him.

【True Zen (Level 7 Overlord)】

[Race: Protoss]

【Life: 45000】

Basic Attributes: Strength: 480, Agility: 460, Constitution: 510, Spirit: 520

【ability:???】

However, in terms of basic attributes, Zhen Chan's attributes are no different from those of Hephaestus, a level 7 deity. Both possess extremely powerful attributes. But at the level of deities and demigods, basic attributes are no longer the only reference.

Although their attributes are relatively similar, the effects they can produce are worlds apart. If Hephaestus were to fight here, a single divine fire would be enough to instantly kill the Bloodthirsty Tyrant, who is not inscribed with the nine [Fire of Mourning] runes.

True Zen is significantly weaker than Hephaestus, the god of fire.

"Such terrifying power! Even the Void Realm Reflecting the Moon couldn't completely withstand it?"

Zhen Chan's arm injury healed rapidly, and at the same time, his gaze toward the Bloodthirsty Tyrant became increasingly wary. It seemed that the attack just now was not the opponent's full strength; he must have even stronger abilities that he had not fully used.

Even he would find it troublesome to face an enemy of this caliber.

"Divine Skill - Invisible Wind Sword!"

Xuanfeng Saint King made his move, and the power of the Gale God transformed into countless invisible sword blades that flew out and bombarded the Bloodthirsty Tyrant like fine rain.

However, the Bloodthirsty Tyrant did not raise the pillar of blood to block it. Instead, it allowed the wind blades to fall on its body, and the parts hit by the blades were completely unharmed.

At this moment, the Bloodthirsty Tyrant possesses extremely high physical attributes, extremely high percentage damage reduction, extremely high fixed damage reduction, extremely high physical defense, and extremely high resistance to all elemental attributes. High-frequency, low-damage attacks are not even worth scratching him.

"Is it similar to the power of True Zen?"

Xuanfeng Saint King's expression changed, but at the same time he felt somewhat fortunate. Fortunately, the Bloodthirsty Tyrant was only immune to damage and did not have that terrifying ability to reflect damage. Otherwise, he might have been killed by his own attack.

“You should leave. Bloodthirsty Tyrant is not an enemy you can handle. Go and deal with the Underworld Clan and the Human Clan. I will hold him off here,” Zhen Chan said.

"boom!!"

The towering Bloodthirsty Tyrant suddenly sprang up, wielding his Blood Spear in an instant. From his superior position, he slammed Zhen Chan's body into a deep pit, causing his own body to bleed profusely and sustain countless terrifying injuries. However, the Blood Spear quickly repaired those injuries within a short time.

The Bloodthirsty Tyrant's eyes gleamed red, his armor still stained with his own blood. A ferocious grin spread across his lips as he pressed his blood-stained spear against Zhen Chan, who was still bleeding profusely, and demanded:

"Tell me, who are you trying to stall for?"
