The Tree Realm Descends on Douluo Continent

Chapter 424 The God Realm is Over

"Quickly, retreat a little distance before launching an attack!"

He narrowly avoided the sharp edge of the sword, his hair disheveled by the violent wind pressure.

The Asura God roared at the surrounding reinforcements.

Since Li Xun followed the Goddess of Life into the divine realm, in the short span of half a cup of tea, the divine realm has already lost no less than two or three hundred people.

Although most of these people were priests and third-level gods, the extent of the tragedy was evident.

The power of the divine realm is not what it used to be.

All eighteen first-level gods perished due to the Seven Deadly Sins, and four more were just lost in the lower realms, leaving only seven remaining.

Although there are more second-level deities, there are only 216 of them.

After the depletion of resources in the lower realm, only a little over one hundred and thirty remain.

But the third-level gods suffered the most.

The army of a thousand men in the lower realm consisted mostly of third-level gods and a few priests.

Originally there were 1,847, but with the recent deaths, only a little over 900 remain.

Although there are still nearly 10,000 priests, most of them are either relatives of the gods or lack the power to determine the outcome of the battle.

We can only pin our hopes on strategic deployment.

The Asura God casually picked up a divine artifact belonging to a fallen deity and stared sharply at Li Xun.

"Expand the encirclement, do not attack rashly, and seize the opportunity when he makes a move."

Once a person passes through the boundless expanse, the world becomes infinitely vast.

Li Xun looked around.

At this moment, countless gods surrounded him completely.

If there hadn't been space to dodge, even the surrounding light would have been completely blocked.

He summoned all his clones to his side, forming a circle around the Buddha statue, facing all four directions.

"These priests aren't very strong. Just stick together in pairs and watch out for each other's backs."

He communicated with his clones using divine sense: "Two of the ten clones will stay behind to attack the God of Destruction with me. We must not let this guy recover."

"good!"

The clones nodded, and then Li Xun and the clones launched their respective attacks.

The eleven enormous thousand-armed Buddha statues roared through the air due to their excessive speed.

They had an indomitable spirit.

"Reload now!!"

"Retreat to a safe distance!"

Facing the giant Buddha wielding thousands of massive swords, it charged forward relentlessly.

A chill ran through each of the gods in the encirclement.

The brief exchange had already made them realize that even as high-ranking officials or third-level gods, they could not withstand the sharpness of his sword.

If things continue like this, their fate will be no different from those who just perished.

The only thing that could bring them any comfort was the difference in numbers.

"Let's attack together!"

As the words fell, nearly 10,000 people in the plaza were divided into five battle zones, each targeting the advancing enemy.

As the entity itself, it naturally received special attention.

Seeing the barrage of attacks, a blue light suddenly burst forth from the giant Buddha beneath Li Xun's feet.

Time seemed to slow down across the entire Time Square.

Then he saw a sky full of colorful attacks, seemingly frozen in time as they slowly approached him.

Taking this opportunity, the two clones manipulated the giant Buddha beneath their feet to clear away attacks that were detrimental to their path, while the other eight rushed toward the crowds in their respective directions.

Li Xun, on the other hand, set his sights on the Goddess of Life.

"Your opponent is me!" The Asura God, holding a spear he had picked up at random, thrust it forward with a sudden thrust.

The force of this thrust was so great that even space itself cracked.

Li Xun dodged to the side, his right hand's Asura Demon Sword brushing against the spear, creating a blinding spark as it slashed towards the Asura God's finger.

The Asura God's gaze sharpened, and he repeatedly pulled his hands back behind the gun.

Unexpectedly, Li Xun pressed on relentlessly, and the Asura Demon Sword slashed at his fingers at an extremely fast speed, brushing against the spear.

Left with no other choice, the Asura God had to abandon his spear and retreat.

When the enemy retreats, we advance.

Li Xun pressed his advantage relentlessly, slashing out with his Water Cold Sword in his right hand, while the giant Buddha beneath his feet attacked simultaneously, blocking the Asura God's retreat space.

It also blocked the attacks that were constantly coming at him from all sides.

Faced with this critical situation, the nine divine rings behind the Asura God spun rapidly, and a powerful energy suddenly erupted from his body.

Without any divine artifacts in hand, he had no choice but to use secret techniques to enhance his strength.

A crimson mist spread from around the Asura God, transforming into a sturdy shield that stood before him.

clang-

The Water Cold Sword slashed down with unstoppable force, only pausing for a moment before shattering into mist.

But even in that brief moment, the Asura God had a chance to catch his breath.

He quickly retreated to a safe distance, with the red mist following closely behind. After the Asura God paused, it transformed into a blood-red greatsword.

Its shape is exactly the same as the Asura Demon Sword.

"How are the toxins in your body, which are destroying your life?"

This brief exchange exerted far greater pressure on the Asura God than on that wisp of divine thought in the lower realm.

Although his divine sense possessed Tang San when he descended to the mortal realm, he had a divine artifact in his hand and four other god-kings by his side, making the danger far greater than it is now.

"Give me just a little longer," the goddess of life replied anxiously.

He looked at the god of evil and the god of good: "How are things on your side?"

Knowing the dire situation, the God of Kindness quickly placed the God of Evil at the very back of the procession.

They rushed over, ready to aid the Asura God.

"The wounds that kid caused have slowed down the recovery process; it will take at least five more minutes for Evil to heal."

The Goddess of Life, carrying Destruction, moved to the back of the group: "Alright, there are still people on their way, so there should be enough time."

Upon hearing the war horns of the divine realm, the fastest to assemble are usually the lower-ranking priests and third-level gods.

The remaining ones are the second-level gods and first-level gods, who hold positions of authority.

At this time, all the gods who had been idle outside had appeared.

And judging by the time, those people in the conference room should have arrived by now.

Just as she expected.

Just as the thought crossed her mind, some familiar faces suddenly arrived at the conference hall.

But before she could even feel happy, the God of Nightmares brought her some bad news.

"I have met several god-kings."

The God of Nightmares first paid his respects, then said, "I want to accuse the God of the Sea and the God of Darkness of treason, for they did not react at all when they heard the war horn of the gods."

Instead, they formed cliques and refused to offer assistance.

"When I reminded them that we should offer assistance, the God of Darkness even tried to attack me, telling me to mind my own business."

"In the end, I only managed to persuade twenty people; the remaining hundred all stood with Poseidon and the others."

"I think they must have reached an agreement with Li Xun. Please, all you god-kings, be careful."

The God of Nightmares did not communicate using divine thought, so most of those who were paying attention to the situation here heard what he said.

These words immediately caused an uproar among those present.

Many people went blank upon hearing this, glaring fiercely at the God of Nightmares.

"At a time like this, do you know what you're saying?"

The Asura God suddenly turned around, wishing he could kill the Nightmare God with a single sword strike.

Those who can attend the Council of Gods are a group of people with status and power in the divine realm.

In the current situation, if those people don't come to help, it will not only affect the morale of those present, but may also affect the course of the battle.

"What's wrong? Why are you all staring at me?"

Seeing the great god-kings and countless gazes focused on him, the God of Nightmares was somewhat bewildered.

"Don't just stand here! Instead of talking, go and provide support!" The goddess of life's hands were trembling.

Even at this point, they're still thinking about eliminating dissidents.

If things weren't so bad right now, she would have loved to kill him with a single blow.

However, the effects had already begun by then.

Faced with Li Xun's fierce attacks and the continuous deaths of those around them, many people were already on edge.

When they heard that the experts in the conference hall had no intention of coming to their aid, panic spread instantly.

Faced with the continuous casualties caused by the Thousand-Hand Buddha, those who were already somewhat terrified suddenly lost their nerve.

Escape is their only thought now.

"Run!"

I don't know who spoke first.

But it had a huge impact on the countless gods in the sky.

What followed was an uproar.

At first, only a few hundred people fled, then thousands followed.

Some people who hadn't yet grasped the situation were instantly left behind.

As cracks appeared in the encirclement, the gods were no longer united.

Taking advantage of this opening, Li Xun and his numerous clones plunged into the crowd.

Nearly ten thousand giant swords were constantly being swung, their sharp blades creating a shower of golden blood.

For a time, screams and wails continued unabated.

"The realm of gods is finished."

Drops of golden blood rained down, and the Asura God raised his palm to catch one of them, murmuring something.

As expected, faced with their companions' sudden retreat and Li Xun's relentless attack, the remaining gods were unwilling to make a pointless sacrifice.

He immediately turned and ran, wanting to get away from this place of trouble.

Li Xun did not pursue the fleeing people.

This is a psychological war.

As he expected, when someone realized that escaping would not result in being attacked, they instantly understood.

They scattered like birds and beasts, retreating in all directions towards the realm of the gods.

In just a few breaths, the magnificent plaza was nearly empty.

At this moment, the God of Kindness stopped his steps to provide assistance, feeling a sudden sense of bewilderment.

Even as a god-king, she didn't know what to do next.

Even the god of life was stunned.

As the gods withdrew, she was exposed to Li Xun, embracing destruction.

Their eyes met.

Since her birth, the goddess of life has never paid special attention to the opinions or emotions of other people.

As a goddess, she always held herself high above others.

But at this moment, she saw indifference in Li Xun's eyes, as if she and Destruction had become dead people in his eyes.

They noticed the way superiors looked at subordinates.

The goddess of life's pupils suddenly contracted, and her whole body trembled.

Suppressing the inexplicable fear in his heart, he picked up Destruction and was about to run towards the depths of the divine realm.

Before they had flown very far, Li Xun caught up with them.

Without the constraints of the countless gods, his clones were all freed up.

They all turned to welcome the Asura God and the God of Kindness.

Faced with the murderous intent of Li Xun, the Goddess of Life suppressed her fear and prepared to resist.

However, facing a god whose primary focus is combat, she, as a support, is simply no match.

He was severely injured after just two moves.

The goddess of life spat out a mouthful of blood, a resolute glint in her eyes.

Things have come to this point, and she alone cannot stop Li Xun's progress.

It would be better to sacrifice one's life to save the destruction.

With the power of destruction, there is still a possibility of escape, thus preventing both of them from perishing here.

With this in mind, the goddess of life began to burn her own life force.

A vibrant green flame rose up, illuminating the entire divine realm in a green hue.

At this moment, no matter where you are in the realm of gods, you can feel this incomparably pure life force.

But at this crucial moment...

A streak of azure sword light flashed, instantly shattering the life force that was about to solidify.

It transformed into countless starlight, scattering in all directions.
