A white-bearded deity holding a large wine jug exclaimed, "How is this possible! He's still alive!"

“Yes…” Kotegawa grinned, and the phantom of the giant serpent quickly appeared behind him.

"If I'm not dead, then it's your turn to die!"

The gods, shocked and enraged, immediately stood together, preparing to break through this place. But then, everything went dark before their eyes again. The next moment, they were astonished to find that they were standing under a sky full of stars once more.

Within the realm of true spirits, longswords formed from true spirits materialized around Kotegawa. He grasped one of them, and the others followed suit, raising their tips and pointing them directly at the gods: "Today, I offer the gods as a sacrifice! I ascend to godhood!"

The gods were filled with inexplicable fear.

But some deities were also provoked and roared, "Kill him!"

"Pfft!" As soon as He finished speaking, a sword light pierced His throat, and then He was pierced by the vast and mighty sword light. The other gods scattered in an uproar.

A hunt has begun.

"No! You...you can't kill me!" Under the longsword, the white-bearded deity, who had already lost his wine gourd, retreated in fear: "This...this old man will not get involved in this matter."

With a single stroke of his sword, Kotegawa ended His long life.

After killing the last god, Kotegawa shattered the countless spheres of light in his heart that shone like stars, then left and returned to the crumbling stone steps.

The gods were further away from him, but he didn't care. He silently dragged out one divine body after another, which turned into blood-stained stone steps leading to heaven.

The gods in the distance watched their comrade disappear alive and reappear dead, and their eyes were filled with a mixture of rage and fear.

They were afraid.

Enraged, Su Jianwu Zun in the sky opened his mouth and spat out a bolt of lightning, which directly shattered the three divine bodies that had turned into stone steps into fragments.

The Kote River continued to drag out the corpse of the god from the stone steps.

It's okay, there are plenty more.

An eerie silence permeated the surroundings.

Su Jianwu was even more enraged and repeatedly unleashed bolts of lightning, but this time, they were all blocked by Bei Yujian.

Kote River buried himself in the stones, climbing up step by step, continuing to endure the test of Heaven.

This time, he did not ascend three steps in one leap, nor did he give the gods another chance to make a move.

One of the gods looked bewildered: "It seems we can't stop him."

"Many of my colleagues have already died..." a deity murmured to himself.

Some gods were filled with grief and indignation: "Among the eight million gods, is there not a second ancient god who will stand up to stop this?"

Kotegawa took a step out of the sea of ​​lightning and stepped onto the real stone steps.

The broken steps to God have been repaired, and from now on, there is no need to pave the way with the body of God anymore.

This step forward brought a sigh of relief to the gods watching from afar.

A deity whispered, "It seems the matter is settled."

The stone steps they continued up were not far from the summit. Sujian Wuzun couldn't make a move, and the others couldn't approach rashly either. If this continued…

Ascending the long steps to the heavens, Kotegawa looked up at the sky and slowly narrowed his eyes.

The intense flames rapidly magnified in his pupils, tearing apart everything, from thunderclouds and Su Jianwu's fire to Bei Yujian's frost.

The sky cleared up instantly, turning as bright as day.

A gigantic, blazing sun hung across the void, dominating everything.

The frost evaporated rapidly, and Bei Yujianzun let out a muffled groan, standing in the void with a sharp gaze fixed on the sky.

An exceptionally heavy force descended from the sky, instantly shattering the stone steps formed by divine bodies, and even adding numerous cracks to the actual steps leading to godhood.

Kotegawa gritted his teeth, veins throbbing on his forehead, and slowly raised his head, staring intently at what was above.

The gods, covering the entire mountainside, prostrated themselves and cried out in unison, "Amaterasu Omikami!"

Beyond the divine level, Amaterasu, the radiant sun among the three noble children!

A powerful voice rang out: "Such a farce deserves..."

The voice, bathed in the blazing sun, paused for a moment, then grew even angrier: "How dare you!"

……

At that moment, a thousand miles away, the Corpse King Liuli rubbed her nose with her sleeve, grinned, and threw down the torch in her hand.

The Ise Grand Shrine, which was already in ruins and had been demolished into a wasteland, was instantly engulfed in flames.

Still not satisfied, the guy set his sights on another large shrine and, with ill intentions, ran towards it.

The whole of Tokyo was in chaos; every shrine was destined to be burned down.

A streak of fire fell from the sky, locking onto the arsonist from afar.

The culprit suddenly stopped, stared at the scene, and after a moment, covered his head and ran away, yelling, "Mom! Someone's trying to kill me!"

Without a sound, night suddenly fell, taking away half of the brightly lit sky.

"Amaterasu, how dare you touch my daughter!"

Chapter 220 A Sword Comes from the West

The Queen of the Demon Path had a temper even greater than that of Amaterasu. Her appearance was accompanied by the force of thunder. Tsukuyomi, one of the Three Noble Sons of Gods, died at her hands. When enemies meet, their eyes are filled with hatred. The blazing sun in the sky instantly became a hundred times more intense, as if it would melt the heavens and the earth.

The Queen of the Demon Path let out a cold laugh and flew into the extremely high void, with Amaterasu, in her blazing sun form, following closely behind.

If the two masters of divine order were to truly clash in the mortal realm, it would truly be the end of the world for all living beings.

Having just directly withstood the might of Amaterasu, with his bones nearly crushed, Kotegawa pursed his lips tightly, mobilizing his vast inner energy to quickly dissipate the remaining force.

A voice entered his heart: "Don't worry about anything, ascend to godhood as quickly as possible!"

Beyoncé Kenzun once again blocked Suji Wuzun's sword strike. The waves roared and rolled, and frost swirled in the air. The two gods were clearly fighting with real passion.

All that was left in Kotegawa's hand was the hilt of a sword.

Ordinary iron is truly useless before the gods.

He casually tossed it aside, and continued climbing empty-handed.

With the two main gods unable to act and many gods terrified by his killings, no one can stop him now.

The surrounding gods could only watch helplessly. Occasionally, a god would make a move, but it was as if he were hitting cotton, powerless. On the contrary, Kotegawa glanced at him and remembered him.

Rumble! Even the thunder pool pouring down from the heavens seemed powerless.

The crimson-gold divine light emanating from Kotegawa's body grew increasingly intense.

"Ugh."

Suddenly, a sigh rang out in the void, not loud, yet it drowned out all other sounds.

Aside from Furudegawa, who was focused on climbing to the top, all the surrounding gods, including Susanoo and Kitami Takematsu, who were still locked in battle, stopped and turned their heads to look over.

Two deities appeared out of thin air on either side of the long steps leading to the divine palace.

A deity dressed in a dark purple palace robe was hidden in the black mist, exuding a strong sense of foreboding.

The gods, upon seeing Him, were filled with a mixture of surprise, joy, and fear. They all turned and fled, shouting as they ran, "Great! It's Amaterasu Ōmikami's Ara-mikami, Kakuzuhikami, and Takemikazuchi! This human is doomed!"

Another god, with a wrathful expression and his body crackling with lightning, held a long sword in his hand. This god was Takemikazuchi, and the sword was named Futsu-no-Mitama. He was also the chief god in the Three Noble Sons Order, and the younger brother of Amaterasu Omikami and Susanoo-no-Mikoto.

Su Jianwuzun suddenly laughed loudly, his chest suddenly expanding, and he spewed out a deity with a human body and a beast's head, which was his Desolate Soul.

Su Jianwu pointed at Kote River and said disdainfully, "Tenni Mei, I order you to protect him!"

Upon hearing this, the human-bodied, beast-headed deity immediately charged forward.

The situation changed in an instant.

The deity, appearing and disappearing in the black mist, said softly, "Give up. If you give up, I'll make your death more comfortable."

He is the spirit of Amaterasu Omikami, representing another side of Amaterasu Omikami, and is in charge of disasters and misfortunes. Although He appears somewhat weak because Amaterasu Omikami is inherently extremely powerful, there is no god among them who is not afraid of Him.

Takemikazuchi, standing to the side, glared and raised Futsu-no-Mitama high, then lowered it with lightning: "Why waste words with this human! I'll kill him first!"

Having just climbed another step, Kotegawa suddenly looked up, his eyes gleaming with intense light.

But then, a voice urgently rang out from the depths of his heart: "Ascend to godhood! Even if you have to crawl, climb up!"

Arrows of frost hurtled toward Takemikazuchi, who roared in fury and turned tail, heading straight for the sea: "Brother, I'll help you slay him first!"

The frost began to dissipate, and the palace robes of Bei Yujianzun were stained with mottled blood, but his gaze remained indifferent, showing no concern for his injuries.

Kotegawa's eyes were sharp. He bent over and leaped up the stone steps, almost running to the top.

The thunder pools high in the sky overlapped one after another, like a pagoda, exuding a dangerous aura that would make even the gods shudder.

Sujian Wuzun's Wild Soul arrived. He was the lord of great demons, unruly and more bloodthirsty than Sujian Wuzun. However, when the lightning pagoda in the sky began to tilt, it abruptly stopped its attack and stared at him menacingly.

The moment the lightning tower unleashed its devastation, the God of Calamity, standing in the air, softly said, "Blessed by lightning calamity, you are beset by misfortune."

The lightning tower high in the sky suddenly expanded, becoming as large as a mountain, and directly covered the earth.

Kotegawa swayed, and the crimson-gold true energy surrounding him immediately diminished.

The thunder tower crashed down with a thunderous roar, transforming into a torrential waterfall of lightning.

Kotegawa's eyes glazed over for a moment, and when he struggled out of his weakness, Raita was already pressing down on his head.

He suddenly raised his head, only to be immediately engulfed by the thunder tower.

The gods in the distance cheered loudly.

With the calamity of the sun god Mojin making his move, how can mere humans possibly survive!

At sea, Kitamatsu Kenzun coughed up blood, his gaze sharp as a sword: "Why haven't you made a move yet!"

His words immediately attracted countless gazes, and the gods showed signs of tension.

Is a war between the gods really about to break out?

Susanoo and Takemikazuchi exchanged glances and stepped back. Susanoo roared, "Kitamikazuchi, what do you mean by this!"

Bei Yujian remained silent, but the sharpness in his eyes grew even stronger.
