Just as the tornado was dissipating, dark clouds gathered above, lightning flashed, and moments later, a cataclysmic storm descended, with countless golden lightning bolts striking from the sky. A familiar, majestic roar resounded, and the ground was shrouded in a massive shadow. A four-legged behemoth, a goat, appeared before everyone's eyes, floating in the air.

Following the wind, another incarnation, the goat that controls lightning, begins to attack the white horse.

Rain is not the power of Vereslana; it is merely a minor natural disaster that occurs when goats appear. Even if it is heavy, it is still just ordinary rain. The power of God is to carry the white horse of the sun and bring down the flames of the sun as punishment.

Before everyone's eyes, a bizarre scene unfolded: in a small area, lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, while the ground was cracked and trees were burning. The raindrops were burned into gas and disappeared before they even hit the ground, only managing to cool the surrounding environment slightly.

The torrential rain slightly reduced the sun's flames on the white horse, but it also enraged it. Its scarlet eyes gleamed, white breath billowed from its mouth, and it suddenly flew towards the goat in the sky.

The white horse, only two-thirds the size of a goat, was no smaller than a goat when engulfed in flames. It galloped into the sky with scorching flames, and was burned to ashes before the storm could even get close.

The four-legged behemoth goat was not to be outdone. Above its head, the dark clouds parted, and golden light illuminated the surroundings as if it were daytime. An unprecedentedly huge golden lightning bolt struck towards the white horse.

The divine beasts clashed, golden lightning met the flames of the sun, and a deafening explosion rang out. If it weren't for Wu Feng's protection, the ordinary person guarding the hall would have been instantly killed. Visible shockwaves spread outward from the point of impact, and burning trees and dark clouds in the sky all vanished at that moment.

The silent night returned, the stars twinkled, and charred trees and cracked earth were everywhere on the ground. The two divine beasts in the sky had also disappeared. The goat was repelled by the white horse's attack and fell to the ground.

Not far in front of the three, the white horse lay sprawled, its pristine white fur covered in black scorch marks left by lightning, with occasional flashes of electricity visible. Having defeated the goat, the white horse was powerless to resist.

Where the white horse fell, a giant golden sword appeared beside them, and the boy's cheerful voice reached the ears of the three.

"As expected of my strongest attack incarnation, it took three incarnations to subdue you. Now, return to your true form."

"A chilling wind blows; the stone slabs are gathering magical power."

Under Wu Feng's protection, the three of them were quite close to the battlefield. From the moment the white horse fell, magical power began to gather on the stone slab, which surprised Erica.

"Stealing the power of a high-ranking god during their prime was almost impossible. Now we should have met the requirements for its use. Godou, quickly point the stone tablet at them."

Hudou hurriedly took out the stone slab. A scorching heat emanated from the slab. Perhaps because he had just experienced the heat of the white horse, he did not hesitate much and immediately pointed the slab forward.

Blue flames shot out from the stone slab and flew forward.

(I'm starting to push this out, I wonder what the results will be~ I'm under a lot of pressure~)

Chapter 116 God War

Prometheus, a descendant of the Titans, created humankind and became their teacher. He did everything he could to help them develop. Zeus, not wanting humankind to possess too much intelligence, refused to give them fire, the most important element of civilization.

Prometheus stole fire from the gods and gave it to humankind, enabling human civilization to be perfected and developed.

To punish him, Zeus chained him to a steep cliff in the Caucasus Mountains, nailed a diamond nail into his chest, and made him endure the wind, sun, and hunger. He also sent a divine eagle to devour his liver. As a god, he was immortal and would soon grow back, thus enduring this torment repeatedly.

The mythological grimoires named after Prometheus possess the same effect as his actions: stealing divine power and authority.

But after all, it's just a magic book, and it's almost impossible for it to have any effect on high-ranking gods.

The white horse is one of Veleslana's ten incarnations, but even so, it still doesn't meet the standard for theft. Now, severely injured and powerless to resist, it can finally use the [Prometheus's Secret].

Before the golden sword fell, blue flames enveloped the white horse, which was dozens of meters long. The flames, imbued with the power of theft, were already burning. Even Vereslana had to temporarily avoid the attack and retreat a distance. Perhaps feeling that it was too late to change the situation, the huge golden sword disappeared, and the boy reappeared in the same spot.

Unlike other flames, the azure flame had no temperature. Even at such close range, there was no feeling of heat. It enveloped the massive white horse and burned. As it burned, the white horse gradually turned into flames and burned as well, merging with the azure flame.

After the two completely merged, the azure flames rapidly condensed and shrank, returning to the stone slab with the power of the sun. As if something had been filled into the hollow core, the stone slab gained weight, and a warm, luminous power emanated from it. The white horse, in its tenfold incarnation, was successfully stolen by the [Secret of Prometheus].

"You already know how to use the stone slab, right? It's only right that you're here. It was my carelessness." The white horse disappeared, and the huge golden sword transformed into a young man, who walked towards the three of them with a slight sense of annoyance.

"Forget it, it's just an avatar, it won't have much of an impact on me. The divine power has been almost completely recovered. Originally, I should have bestowed my authority as punishment for your rebellion against God and the theft of divine power, but for the sake of our friendship, let the white horse's authority remain there. I will retrieve it personally after I finish my duel with Mekal."

The boy suddenly smiled.

"Young lady, didn't you want to stop my duel with Mekal? With my avatar, the White Horse, perhaps there is a glimmer of hope. Come and challenge me, stand in my way to victory!"

"Let me state first that God's grace can only descend once. If you intend to use the stone tablet to obstruct me, I will gladly accept the challenge, and at the same time, I will punish you for your disrespect to God. Now, step back."

After reminding the two, Vereslana fell silent and turned to walk towards the ruins of Saint Basti inside the forest.

Just as they approached the forest, the lush green trees suddenly began to move, leaning and obstructing the path ahead of Vereslana.

A golden lightning bolt flashed in Vereslana's hand, striking the obstacle in front of him. The power of the goat, the lightning that judges sinners, though only a single bolt, was enough to destroy a large swath of trees. However, when it struck the obstacle, it only snapped a few branches before immediately returning to its original state.

"The barrier set up by King Mekal, it seems he's quite wary of me. Forcing my way in would have taken a toll on me," Vereslana said with a wry smile.

While Wu Feng and his group were leaving, Mekal successfully kept Vereslana out of the forest by implementing measures to prevent enemy invasion and interference with his recovery.

"King Mekar, why don't you come out and fight? Or do you want to wait until dawn so that I can store up enough power to sever the barrier myself?" After a bitter smile, Veleslana shouted loudly, his voice full of pride and madness.

"Hahahaha, I thought there was some farce going on outside, and the forest was even crying, so I just watched quietly from the sidelines. I never expected that the God of War would fall for human trickery and steal one of his avatars."

A deep, thunderous roar echoed from within the forest, and the fallen trees gradually returned to normal, the barrier that had been blocking Veleslana vanishing.

"The God of War has lost an incarnation, but I will not take advantage of you. Come and fight! This time, we must settle the score." The voice of Mekal, the Phoenician god-king, who had met Mekal once before, grew closer and closer as he emerged from the depths of the forest.

The calm ground began to tremble slightly, and black ash continued to fall from the charred branches. The tremors grew stronger and stronger until finally, it looked like an earthquake.

With a robust, heavy physique, tattered clothes, a leather breastplate, and an almost broken cloak, Mekal emerged from the depths of the forest, growing ever taller in the eyes of the onlookers.

It wasn't the distance that made it so tall, but rather that it had truly become much larger. By the time it was right in front of him, Mekal had become a colossal giant tens of meters tall.

The golden sword that had been inserted into his chest had long since disappeared; his massive, ancient body exuded power and ferocity.

"Oh, King Mekal, it seems you have recovered well and are now able to fight in your divine form." Mekal's enormous divine body did not surprise Vereslana at all; instead, he excitedly exclaimed.

"Didn't you also reclaim most of the divine power?" Mekal's thunderous voice rang out in succession. With his size, it truly sounded like thunder descending from the sky, buzzing in one's ears.

The dialogue between the gods resounded between heaven and earth, and dark clouds, thunder, lightning, and gales appeared continuously within the area.

Wu Feng suddenly felt that compared to Vereslana, Mekal seemed somewhat insidious. Between the two, one had lost his avatar and the other had not yet recovered from his injuries. It seemed fair, but in reality, Vereslana was at a disadvantage.

Having recovered nine incarnations, the power had theoretically been restored to its maximum extent. However, the battle with the White Horse had also depleted a significant portion of its strength, and ultimately, the White Horse was sealed away by the secret manual of [Prometheus's Manual].

As for Mekal, Wu Feng could no longer sense any spiritual energy from the ruins. He probably used some special method to forcibly absorb it all, thus restoring most of his divine power.

If we fight again at dawn, perhaps that will be a fair fight. Veleslana is the guardian of the sun god, and the sun can make him even stronger. Although Mekal also has a related divine position, as the king of gods, he has too much power to improve his strength.

(This storyline is almost over~ Yufeng is going to join the battle too~)

Chapter 117 Joining the War

A storm powerful enough to tear a person apart, a sky filled with dark clouds and flashing lightning, and the convergence of two disobedient gods have turned the area into a mobile disaster zone.

In the sky, golden light gathered, and a towering lightning bolt suddenly struck down on Mekal. Vereslana launched the first attack, using one of his most powerful abilities, the Goat, the lightning that judges sinners.

Mekal raised his wooden stick high, blocking the golden lightning and causing the two to collide.

There was no collision, no sound, no shockwave—nothing happened. The golden lightning disappeared immediately after hitting the wooden stick, causing no major damage.

"God of War, do you think using lightning to fight against me, whose primary role is the God of the Sky, will be effective?" A thunderous voice of dissatisfaction rang out from Mekal.

Mekal, as the god-king of the Phoenicians, had his divine duties constantly strengthened, becoming the god of war, the god of the underworld, the god of harvest, and the god of life, among others. But his most important role was that of the god of the sky, who controlled wind, rain, and lightning. Even the lightning of the goat could not cause him any harm.

After his initial dissatisfaction, he swung the wooden stick at his opponent with a destructive force.

A red light flashed in Vereslana's eyes, and he instantly escaped the wooden stick's attack range with the speed of a phoenix. The wooden stick, which had missed its target, did not stop but continued downwards, slamming into the ground.

The earth trembled, and countless cracks spread outward from the wooden stick, covering an area of ​​thousands of meters. The spot where the stick struck left a wound a hundred meters long. A casual strike had already caused such widespread damage. If it were used at full power, it might indeed be able to sink Sardinia into the sea, as he said.

“If this continues, the area will be destroyed.” The scars on the earth made Erica bite her lip, and she took out Reinhardt, intending to fight to the death to stop their battle.

"Although it's a bit troublesome, let's give it a try." Wu Feng sighed as he thought about the battle between the two gods, knowing that staying here would only lead to him getting caught up in it sooner or later.

"You guys should stay away from here," Wu Feng said, and headed towards the battlefield. Erica tried to stop him, but in the blink of an eye, Wu Feng had already reached the dangerous area.

The power of death, which had not erupted for nearly two hundred years, officially burst forth at this moment. A faint purple hue permeated the space around Wu Feng. After two hundred years of slumber, the power of death had not increased significantly. His current strength was [Mid-level Ferocity: Level 69], which was not bad, but it was still far from being a dual god of the lower level of Madness.

"Warrior, have you decided to participate as well? But it's not enough. Your current strength is far from sufficient. Unleash your full power!" As Wu Feng approached, Vereslana shouted even more excitedly. He could sense that the other party's strength was far greater than what he had just achieved.

Erica and the others watched Wu Feng nervously. His current strength had surpassed that of his uncle, but even Godou could see that he was still quite far from being as powerful as the two gods.

【Death Control】

【Yuyuko's Fan (Formerly)】Now, many of its skills are no longer necessary. The main reason for keeping it without selling it is 【Death Control】, which will be extremely useful until Wu Feng ascends to the top.

Unfortunately, [Death Manipulation] isn't a complete leap across ranks; it only provides the energy needed to break through to the next rank. After using it, one reaches [High-Rank Ferocious: Level 31].

The death energy permeating his entire body was even more intense, but that was still not enough; it was simply impossible to fight against two lower-level Berserkers simultaneously, even if it meant going beyond his own level.

"This is amazing! Use whatever other tricks you have up your sleeve! You're still a ways off from getting involved in the war of the gods!" An excited shout rang out, causing Wu Feng to give a troubled wry smile. This time, he really had to use all his abilities to have any chance of getting involved.

"Before that, let's deal with the onlookers." Without answering Vereslana's question, Wu Feng looked in a certain direction in the forest, where there was no movement.

In mid-air, hundreds of blue-purple light butterflies coalesced. After gaining Hades' power, they could do this quite easily. There was still no movement in the forest.

The blue-purple butterfly fluttered away, its faint light a beautiful sight in the night. But as soon as it approached the forest, it unleashed astonishing damage, shattering the purple butterfly and sending countless fragments of light covering a clump of trees.

Screams rang out, and four figures hurriedly fled from the bushes, their faces filled with terror and their bodies bearing severe wounds, seemingly unable to believe that they had been discovered.

Before they could take two steps, the remaining blue discs launched a second wave of attack, trapping the three of them once again. Only one person, clad in armor, remained, his eyes filled with panic and disbelief, repeatedly muttering...

"Impossible! Why isn't it following the plot? Why are people from the Gensokyo world here?"

Before he could even finish speaking, five beams of [Unborn Light] completely obliterated him from the world. Wu Feng thought to himself, "You know too much..."

“The troublesome minions have been dealt with. Do you mind if I choose the battlefield?” Ignoring the notification in his mind, Wu Feng said to the onlookers.

Well, it won't make a difference if you refuse.

【The Netherworld Jade Pavilion】

Before the two could answer, Wu Feng had already activated [Netherworld Jade Tower], the first skill he had successfully fused with after arriving in the Godslayer world.

Mekal, Vereslana, Erica, Godou, and Wu Feng vanished into the forest, leaving behind only the ravaged earth and charred trees.

Even Wu Feng himself was using the [Netherworld Jade Pavilion] for the first time.

Perhaps because it incorporates the emblem of Hakugyokurou, the boundless cherry blossom garden is almost identical to Hakugyokurou. Scattered cherry blossom petals create a cherry blossom-colored world. In the very center of the garden, an endless stairway to heaven stands, a place for one-on-one duels that only allows one person to walk together.

At the end of the Heavenly Ladder lies the main body of the White Jade Pavilion, but unfortunately, nothing can be seen from here.

"The aura of our enemy, an ancient warrior, has only been discovered by me today. How did you manage to do that?" In the courtyard, an astonished voice rang out from Veleslana. He was amazed that Wu Feng could conceal his identity. From the moment they became Godslayers, they had been enemies, so it was only natural that they could sense each other.

"Don't ask me, I'm not quite sure myself. Maybe I've never used my powers? Or maybe they've faded away over time..."

"Is this your true face? You are worthy of being compared to a god." Wu Feng's answer did not anger Vereslana at all, or rather, it was ignored.

After hearing this, Wu Feng noticed that Erica and Godou had been staring at him silently with disbelief, while Vereslana also looked on with admiration.

Pulling out a strand of pale purple hair, Wu Feng knelt down…

(I won't be following the novel's plot anymore... Starting from the next chapter, I'm going to rediscover my old style!)
