The process of deification began with the discovery of hidden information in divine objects.

Chapter 119 The Final Battle of Luochuan

"At midnight, Xu Bingnian said that we must immediately deliver ten catties of divine essence and two divine artifacts, and he will bring his men over right away!"

Nie Jinghong was trembling with anger as she gripped her phone!

"Great plan! They're already thinking about taking Tiansheng's inheritance!"

Su Ziye's face was extremely gloomy. Tiansheng had collapsed, a portion of its inheritance had been confiscated, and the remaining portion was being fought over by various families in the market, with each family only receiving a very small share!

However, ten catties of divine source and two divine objects are almost equivalent to a third of Tiansheng!

A single 100-gram divine source is worth a million, and ten kilograms would be worth fifty million. Even the lowest-grade low-level divine objects are worth tens of millions to hundreds of millions. The Xu family is trying to steal a resource worth one hundred million?

This guy is obsessed with money!

Even the Divine Ritual Department doesn't have this many Divine Sources. This is blatant extortion and taking advantage of someone's misfortune!

Moreover, the Xu family is the closest to this place, just across the street. They can bring people here and arrive within five minutes, allowing for the fastest possible evacuation of the crowd and also providing support to the Divine Ceremonial Division!

"Give it to him!"

Su Ziye said with a cold face.

"Otherwise, once this monster is unsealed, all the surrounding buildings will be destroyed. If no one is evacuated, the death toll will be at least in the hundreds!"

It's unrealistic to expect a group of people to be orderly when fleeing for their lives. In fact, if no one is evacuated, people who are terrified might even hide under the table in their own homes.

Humans are such animals; when they are afraid, their genes take over their reason, and they instinctively run to places they feel safe, triggering the underlying biological code, such as under the bed or under the table at home. Enclosed environments give people a greater sense of security!

"it is good."

Nie Jinghong nodded.

"I agree. Patriarch Xu, please bring your men to Luochuan Pagoda within five minutes! Evacuate the residential areas within a five-kilometer radius!"

Nie Jinghong spoke up.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Xu Bingnian was overjoyed at the Xu family villa!

"Everyone, prepare! Rush to the aid of the Divine Ritual Division and rid the people of this scourge!"

At his command, the Xu family experts, who had been waiting in full force, sprang into action, and the convoy, like a dragon, rushed out of the villa!

The convoy weaved through the streets and alleys, with loudspeakers continuously broadcasting evacuation notices!

"Attention, citizens of Luochuan! Attention, citizens of Luochuan!"

"A serious safety hazard has been identified in the southern area, and the Department of Ceremonies has initiated an emergency evacuation procedure."

"All residents within a five-kilometer radius of Luochuan Pagoda are requested to evacuate in an orderly manner within five minutes, following the instructions."

"Follow the route designated by the Divine Ritual Division to the nearest shelter."

"Repeat it!"

The sound echoed in the night sky, spreading to every street in the southern district!

Panic gripped the city, and large numbers of people, filled with fear and unease, left their homes in their pajamas!

Some elderly people were crying and shouting, trying to take away their valuables and their bankbooks, but time was of the essence, so the younger family members dragged and pulled them away!

"No, Dad, what's more important than human life!"

"My house! We still have thirty years of mortgage payments left!"

"My car! I took out a three-year loan for this car!"

"I can't find the bracelet my mom left me!"

"My son's photo! My son's photo, that's the last thing my son left me!"

The sounds of wailing and lamentation echoed from every household, filling the air!

Su Ziye could clearly hear sounds coming from all directions!

For ordinary people, a mere flick of the finger by a superhuman is a tremendous disaster. In such a world, natural disasters are insignificant compared to man-made calamities!

The hallway was packed with people, and the sounds of footsteps, shouts, and children crying were all mixed together, creating extreme chaos!

Someone is making a phone call, but no one is answering.

Someone sent a message, but it went unanswered.

Some people disregarded everything and pushed their way out of the crowd, desperately trying to survive.

"Don't push! Don't shove!"

Several people dressed in Xu family uniforms stood at key points along the evacuation route, shouting at the top of their lungs.

"Elderly people and children, go first! Everyone else, line up!"

Xu Bingnian stood on the street, holding a megaphone, and shouted at the fleeing crowd.

"We are the Xu family. We will protect you. Please believe in us. The Xu family will fight for Luochuan City!"

Even with people trying to maintain order, there were still incidents of pushing, trampling, and rioting. Everyone was running around in a mess, and the elderly and children were evacuated in the Xu family's cars according to their distance.

The area one kilometer away from the giant undead is the high-risk zone, followed by medium-high risk, medium risk, and then the time becomes relatively less critical.

"Everyone, run! Don't look back! Don't look back!"

A cultivator from the Xu family's group roared, and as he looked at the undead giant, he couldn't help but swallow hard.

Even from hundreds of meters away, it was utterly terrifying!

Yet some people still ignored the warnings, and as they ran, they turned around and saw that terrifying, frozen figure. They let out a scream of fear, fell to the ground, and their legs went weak with fright.

"Ah! A monster!"

His shout immediately caused more people to turn their heads and look, and they all trembled with fear!

"Please maintain order!"

"Don't panic, the Xu family will protect you!"

"Line up and don't run around!"

Su Ziye and Nie Jinghong held their breath, standing beneath the giant's body. Ten minutes were almost up!

But the people around had only just begun to evacuate, and there was simply no time to spare!

"Is there any other way?"

Su Ziye inquired.

"Sacrifice the Moonlit Sword".

Nie Jinghong said, enunciating each word clearly.

"My divine radiance has been exhausted, but the divine radiance of the divine object still exists, it just cannot be activated. You have no divine radiance. The only solution I can think of now is to sacrifice the Moonfrost Sword to buy some more time."

As she spoke, Nie Jinghong grasped the divine object and smiled at Su Ziye.

Su Ziye's expression was somewhat complicated. The Divine Ritual Department had the Kitchen God Seal, the Door God Golden Mace, and the Spirit Platform Mother-Child Mirror, but strictly speaking, the Moon Cold Sword was not a divine object of the Divine Ritual Department. It was a private divine object left to her by Nie Jinghong's deceased father, but she had always kept it in the Divine Ritual Department for public use.

"Isn't this your father's keepsake?"

"Compared to life, what are divine objects? Divine objects are meant to serve humanity. They can save hundreds or even thousands of people. I think if the Moonfrost Sword had a spirit, it would do so willingly!"

With that, Nie Jinghong raised the Moonfrost Sword high!

"Divine power—unleash!"

hum!

boom!

A blinding blue light suddenly erupted from the Moonfrost Sword, soaring into the sky and enveloping the undead giant!

The surface of the ice that had begun to melt was re-frozen into a solid block of ice, many times stronger than before!

As the blue light dissipated, the Moonfrost Sword gradually dimmed as well!

Click, click!

The sword was covered in cracks, and the next second, it shattered into endless blue light, leaving only a dull hilt.

This legendary weapon has finally reached the end of its life!

"In that case, we might be able to hold on for another forty minutes."

Nie Jinghong smiled.

In the following days, universities and families from all over the country brought their divine artifacts to aid the Divine Ritual Division!

The undead warriors outside the Divine Ritual Division were all killed, and everyone finally recovered!

Xu Bingnian, carrying the Giant Spirit Mountain-Splitting Axe, the Spirit Platform Mother-Child Mirror, and ten catties of Divine Source, disappeared into the shadows.

The remaining people gathered at the foot of Luochuan Pagoda.

"Chief, is that big guy the mastermind?"

Xiong Chaofeng, wielding the double maces of the door gods, stared at the giant undead and asked coldly.

"No, it's the guy on his back."

Su Ziye pointed to Edgar, who was frozen on the giant's body.

"Okay, I'll go kill him right now!"

But Su Ziye shook her head.

"Edgar said that beneath Luochuan City lies an ancient battlefield, burying countless corpses and history. This giant is merely an aggregate of the resentment of a thousand undead spirits. A thousand of them, and his strength exceeds two hundred tons, infinitely approaching the Divine Fire Realm!"

"You can imagine how terrifying it would be if all the resentful spirits beneath Luochuan were to rise again!"

Everyone's expression changed drastically!

"Doesn't this mean only a Divine Fire Realm expert could suppress it?!"

Everyone's faces were filled with terror. If they went to find a Divine Fire Realm expert from another city now, not to mention whether the expert would come, even if they were willing, there would be absolutely no time!

"So, I have an idea."

Su Ziye pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Regardless of any grudges we may have on ordinary days, at least now we are all willing to fight for Luochuan City in this time of crisis."

"Luochuan City is structured into four districts: east, south, west, and north, representing the four cardinal directions. These four directions are meant to suppress the four corners of the land. I hope you all can assist me by taking the divine artifacts you possess and twelve Resonance Realm experts to the four districts to place the artifacts on the earth and sever Edgar's control over the resentment!"

"The Staff of Hel in his hand is only a mid-grade divine artifact. Although the divine artifacts in your hands are of lower grade, their quantity makes them more numerous and can rival it!"

The expressions on everyone's faces changed. Even if the divine object was not damaged, doing so would destroy a large amount of its divinity. Many of them regarded the divine object as a treasure, a precious artifact that could allow a family to prosper for a hundred years!

"I, Qingye, am naturally willing to take either of these divine artifacts as I see fit."

Li Muzhi said with a smile.

"Our Divine Ritual Department possesses divine objects: the Kitchen God Seal, the Door God's Golden Mace, and Lilith's Silver Mirror."

The principals of the other three schools were also willing to contribute, some contributing two items and others one, and soon everyone had gathered eight divine items.

"The Wang family is also willing."

Although Wang Xiong was somewhat unwilling, he finally nodded.

"Luochuan City belongs to everyone. Although I, Wang Xiong, am driven by profit, when our home is in peril, I can't afford to look back. We all prosper together, and we all suffer together. Moreover, I believe that after this incident, the Divine Ritual Division will certainly not treat us unfairly!"

He waved his hand in agreement!

"My Bai family is willing!"

"The Ma family is willing!"

One after another, people expressed their willingness to contribute, and soon twelve divine items were gathered. Xiong Chaofeng, Fang Zhiyuan, Chen Ying, Wang Xiong, Li Xingzong, and the patriarchs of several families who refused to contribute divine items were able to gather twelve resonance realm experts!

At this moment, everyone is rushing to the four major regions to try to cut off the spirit energy beneath Luochuan before it thaws!

But now there is still a problem: who should be assigned to deal with the most troublesome undead giants and Edgar?

Nie Jinghong's divine radiance has been completely exhausted. Even if it hadn't, she would still be no match for the undead giant!

A casual punch with the force of two hundred tons is something no one present can match!

And there's also Edgar's Staff of Hel!

"Leave these two guys to me."

Su Ziye stepped forward and expressed his opinion.

"What?! I'm handing it over to you?!"

Everyone was shocked!

"This is a monster that's almost reached the Divine Fire Realm!"

"Gentlemen, do not underestimate Enforcer Su of my Divine Ceremonial Division. Before coming here, he had already killed Zhao Tianzhi!"

"What?"

Everyone was shocked!

"King Zhao Tianzhi of Luochuan was killed? By him?!"

An eighteen-year-old young man!

An utterly astonished gaze fell upon Su Ziye!

Zhao Tianzhi is a formidable figure. Even Nie Jinghong at his peak couldn't defeat him. His combat power is terrifying to the extreme, and he is known as the person in the entire Luochuan who is closest to the Divine Fire Realm!

But such a being was killed by Su Ziye!

Su Ziye nodded in response to the astonished looks on everyone's faces.

"Therefore—please believe me, midnight—will surely wipe out all enemies before dawn!"
