Deities: Rulers of Nature

Seeing Zhang Jiang's astonished expression, Ji Xuan's eyes remained completely unmoved.

The outcome was already decided; Zhangjiang had no chance of turning things around.

This scene even reminded Ji Xuan of a test about knives and candy that he had seen on Aquamarine Star.

A man, having avenged his family, slaughtered his enemy's entire clan. However, he discovered a child hiding under a table or in a wardrobe. The man took out a knife and a piece of candy, placed them in front of the child, and asked him to choose:

If the child chooses the knife, it means he has murderous intent, and this child must not be allowed to live!

If a child chooses candy, it means he is extremely cunning and shrewd; such a child should not be allowed to live!

If a child chooses both, it means he is inherently greedy, and this child should never be kept!

If a child doesn't choose either option, it means he's inherently rebellious, and this child should absolutely not be kept!

If the setting weren't so inappropriate, Ji Xuan would have really wanted to give Zhang Jiang a try.

"As a demigod, you should know better than those intelligent races that the Void Realm has always been a place where the strong prey on the weak."

"The victor is king, the loser is villain. We are all Chinese, you must understand this principle."

As Ji Xuan spoke, a cyan-gold light flashed in his eyes.

Then, clusters of plants formed from divine power sprouted from Zhang Jiang's body, their roots firmly embedded in his body, drawing upon his divine power.

Ji Xuan did intentionally hold back before, but that doesn't mean he wouldn't take the opportunity to do something.

"Yes, it's all about the winner taking all the credit." Zhang Jiang gave a bitter smile.

Although Zhang Jiang had a good self-image, in reality, he was always arrogant. This arrogance influenced his behavior to some extent and subtly changed his way of thinking.

Zhang Jiang was born into wealth and had a smooth life, able to do whatever he wanted and go wherever he pleased.

The only life-threatening crisis not only did not kill Him, but also brought Him to the Void Realm, where He became a new demigod.

After opening up the divine realm, you start with two clans and the Blood Spring, a highly practical and spiritually significant region.

All of this gave Zhang Jiang the illusion that he was the chosen one, even though he kept telling himself that the void was boundless and there must be gods with better luck and talent than him.

On the other hand, Zhang Jiang felt that he was not an ordinary demigod. Even if he was not among the top few, he was sure he could squeeze into the first tier.

This situation continued until the battle for divine office in the Dark Caverns, where Zhang Jiang was the first to be eliminated. There were four gods present, and Zhang Jiang was the one who came in last.

Zhang Jiang, who suffered heavy losses, reflected deeply on his actions. But before he could fully recover, set sail again, grow bigger and stronger, and create new glories, Ji Xuan came knocking on his door.

Seeing the relief in Zhang Jiang's expression, Ji Xuan's eyes remained unmoved.

"May you rest in peace."

Ji Xuan held nothing back, unleashing a burst of cyan-gold divine power. There were no fancy moves, only the purest and most violent strike.

In the final moment before his consciousness faded, Zhang Jiang glanced at his kin in the arena, and then his body gradually returned to nothingness.

Zhang Jiang, the progenitor of the Blood Sea, has fallen.

Out of consideration for their shared Chinese heritage, Ji Xuan treated the Zhangjiang deity with the respect and dignity due to him.

The fall of the gods they believed in became the final straw that broke the camel's back.

The moment Zhang Jiang's aura completely dissipated, the already disadvantaged army of Darkwing Bats and Blood Slimes seemed to have had their spines removed, and their morale and fighting spirit rapidly declined.

The lowly, bloody slime-men instinctively wanted to escape the Void Arena, but could only wriggle and pile up helplessly on the crystal walls at the edge of the arena, with nowhere to escape or avoid, and were eventually wiped out by the combined forces of the Spider-Men and the Snake-Men.

On the aerial battlefield, the Snow Feather Eagles and Cherry Blossom Spirits wove a deadly net for the Darkwing Batmen. Accompanied by mournful howls, the Batmen's corpses fell from the sky like dumplings being dropped into a pot, leaving behind only mutilated bodies and pools of blood on the ground.

[Message: Victory in the War of Glory has elevated the faith of our clan.]

[Information: Faith Points +129758]

Inside the void arena, Ji Xuan's figure appeared in the eyes of all the familiars. Looking at the familiars below who had won the victory, he couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion.

However, Ji Xuan quickly suppressed this emotion. It was a good thing that the clan was becoming stronger and stronger.

Qinglu and the others did not notice that their God of Nature had been momentarily stunned. In their eyes, the God of Nature's figure was still so majestic. He simply waved his hand and sent down a rain of azure-gold light.

The wounds of everyone enveloped in the rain of light began to heal. Whether it was severed limbs, broken bones, or ulcers caused by the bloody slimes, they all returned to their original state at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Praise be to you, great God of Nature!" Led by Qinglv, everyone cheered in unison.

"Defend the glory of our Lord with courage, with fearlessness, with sacrifice..."

Afterwards, under the command of Green and Crimson, the snake people collected the bodies of their fallen companions, and the spider people also came to help.

Ji Xuan already knew the specific data of the battle, and he was extremely satisfied with the performance of his clan.

The Cherry Blossom Fairy and the Snow Feather Eagle achieved zero casualties. The Snake Man and Spider Man at the front lost more than sixty and forty men respectively, and the Bronze-ranked ones were not even seriously injured.

All told, the total number of casualties among the family members was no more than a hundred.

But what about the Darkwing Batmen and the Blood Slimemen? Compared to their combined numbers of over 70,000, their casualties of just over 100 were a fraction of the Darkwing Batmen's.

This couldn't even be called a battle; it was a one-sided massacre.

This is also why Ji Xuan delayed Zhang Jiang beforehand; even a casual strike from a deity can be fatal to a clan that has not yet fully matured.

After Qinglu and the others had finished getting ready, Ji Xuan reopened the interdimensional passage.

"Return to the realm of the gods."

After Qinglv gave the order, she led the team into the rising white vortex. Snow Feather Eagle, Cherry Blossom Fairy, Snake Man and Spider Man followed in one after another, while Crimson stayed behind to cover the rear.

After bowing to Ji Xuan in the air, Crimson also stepped into the vortex.

When Ji Xuan sensed the crimson figure appearing in the Mountain and Sea Divine Realm, he raised his hand and smoothed out the passage between the two realms.

The next second, His figure gradually became transparent and finally disappeared into the virtual arena.

The battle between the gods ended, and so did the mission of the Void Arena. The vast savanna began to fade into the void, and the bat-men and slime-men corpses within it vanished.

Finally, the entire arena space collapsed rapidly and disappeared completely into the void, as if it had never existed.

Ji Xuan's initial goal was Zhang Jiang's Divine Realm Origin, Blood Spring, and Blood Bone Lotus, so he naturally wouldn't bet everything like he did when he first participated in the Void Realm Arena.

Although the outcome was not much different, after Zhang Jiang was destroyed, all the resources in the Blood Sea Divine Realm were at His disposal. However, the remaining members of Zhang Jiang's clan would not be forcibly transformed into believers in Ji Xuan by the Void Realm's general consciousness, unlike the Cherry Blossom Spirit before.

The main reason is that the Darkwing Bats and Bloody Slimes failed to pique Ji Xuan's interest in training them. For the sake of biodiversity in the Mountain and Sea Divine Realm, Ji Xuan will transfer all living beings in the Blood Sea Divine Realm except for these two races to the Mountain and Sea Divine Realm.

That's right, this time Ji Xuan doesn't even intend to accept the terrain and landforms of the Blood Sea Divine Realm.

Firstly, the territory of the Mountain and Sea Divine Realm is nearing the limit that a demigod can sustain. Secondly, after merging with the origin of the divine realm, the territory of the Mountain and Sea Divine Realm will automatically increase by a portion, and this portion is perfectly compatible with the Mountain and Sea Divine Realm.

Comparing the two, Ji Xuan would definitely choose the latter.

As for Ji Xuan breaking through to become a formal god, He will naturally have better options at that time.
