"Simulated defensive barrier!" The girl also deployed a layer of light membrane to deflect the reflected light projectiles, and then she flashed and grabbed Hashirama's hands.

"That's fast, isn't it?" Hashirama shook his head helplessly, then activated the spell, "Life Drain! Hmm?! No life force? What's going on?"

Just as Hashirama was wondering, Riku walked over. "Hey, clone, tell me your race, and why you're hiding in this area?"

“Yes, I am human,” Hashirama straightened up, while the girl beside him, holding two wooden hands, seemed confused. “Come here…”

Before Senju could finish speaking, Rick on the other side said, "Please don't joke around. Humans can't use magic at all. Please tell me your true race!"

"Huh? Humans can't use magic? Who told you that?" Hashirama looked at him in surprise. "You actually said that humans who slay gods and dragons can't use magic? What kind of joke is that!"

However, as Hashirama spoke, he suddenly realized something, "Right, this is another world, is that part of the setting?"

“If we could slay gods and dragons, humanity wouldn’t be in this state now,” Riku seemed very excited. Hashirama looked at him and nodded. “To correct you, I’m a human from another world. What’s wrong with the humans here?”

"Another world?" The other party seemed quite surprised. Hashirama nodded. "That's right. I originally thought there wouldn't be any humans in such a harsh environment. I didn't expect to run into the two of you."

"Two?" Rick said softly, then pointed to the girl beside him and asked Hashirama, "Do you know her race?"

"Huh? Isn't this just a human girl? But the technology here is quite advanced; they've even created drive armor," Hashirama glanced at the girl; her mechanical-style clothing was rather revealing.

"Hahahaha!" Rick burst into wild laughter. Hashirama, standing to the side, asked the girl, "What's wrong with him? Is he having a relapse?"

Riku, who had been laughing wildly for a while, stopped and looked at Hashirama beside him. "So, Lord of Another World, what evidence do you have to prove yourself?"

"?" Hashirama looked at him in confusion. "So, what are you talking about? Why should I prove anything? I'm not even familiar with you guys."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Rick apologized insincerely. "My lord from another world, you must have many amazing skills. If you can dispel the black ash in the sky, I'll believe you."

"Black ash, huh?" Hashirama reached out and touched the falling black ash, his hand immediately burning a patch before recovering. "I'll try it, Ultimate Divine Purification!"

As Hashirama activated his magic, a huge magic circle appeared around him, and a white light spread out for several thousand meters before dissipating. However, the black ash within the range of the white light immediately burned and disappeared.

"That idiot! He actually used such powerful magic, let's get out of here." Rick cursed under his breath, then the girl carried him and ran away. Hashirama watched the two running away speechlessly. Could they not survive without Black Ash?

Just as Hashirama was wondering what was going on, the two figures had already disappeared. Hashirama stared speechlessly at them, and then some guys wearing strange masks and armor suddenly appeared from the side. Upon seeing Hashirama, they attacked him fiercely, yelling, "Monkey, die!"

"This is inexplicable," Hashirama said, somewhat annoyed. "Gravity!"

However, the opponent's movements seemed unrestricted; several swords struck Hashirama instantly, then bounced back even faster.

Seeing them bounce back from the protective magic, Hashirama raised his hand, "Meteor Shower! Firestorm! Lightning Ray!"

After a few spells, Senju thought those people would be killed instantly, but they were very fast, darting in and out of the gaps between the meteors, flames, and lightning. Several were chopped into charcoal, and the rest looked to be close to Hashirama.

Hashirama looked at them helplessly, “Dimensional barrier, slow, weakness, drowsiness, quagmire.”

Chapter 615 The Tempting Bait

Those oddly dressed guys tried to wade through the water, but they were immediately swallowed by the mud. Hashirama watched them disappear speechlessly. Then, a beam of light flew over from a distance and blasted the barrier open.

"This is really never going to end," Hashirama said irritably. Then he saw a beautiful 'angel' flying over from the sky. She was very beautiful, with long blue hair and cross-shaped flames in her eyes. However, this angel had a radiating halo on her head and wings growing from her waist.

"Hey, what race are you? I've never seen a monkey like you before. Are you a new species? You're so rare. Please let me take your head," the other party shouted excitedly, then flew over wielding a large scythe of dark flames. "Don't move around too much, or it won't be good if you smash your head to pieces."

"Such powerful magic, this time it should be fine," Hashirama sensed it and saw a bright magical energy emanating from the other party. Hashirama raised his hand, "Magic Seal!"

"Huh?!" The 'angel' who was slowly flying this way suddenly struggled and fell to the ground. She stood there seemingly very excited, "Hahaha, I actually managed to do that!"

"I'm quite impressed with you now."

"Release!" With her shout, the magic immediately broke through the seal. She stomped on the ground and rushed towards Hashirama in the air. In a flash, she appeared in front of Hashirama and punched him through. "Die in peace. I'll keep your head safe."

"Is that so?" Hashirama said calmly. He had already used 'Summoning of the God of War' to enhance his combat awareness. This was just a ploy to lure the enemy.

"Hati!" Hashirama calmly uttered the spell, then suddenly embraced the other person. "Seal, Weaken, Sever Spirit, Enslavement."

"Ah!" the angel screamed, instantly weakening. "You're not a monkey! What are you?!"

“Theft,” Senju said, striking at the halo above her head and instantly snatching it away. Hashirama then sensed a strange power trying to invade him, so he raised his hand and unleashed an explosion, shattering the halo into pieces.

The 'enslavement' technique used to control and summon demons took effect immediately. The angel's eyes shifted, and she said, "Greetings, Master. I am Araned of the Skywing race."

"Is that so? Tell me everything you know," Hashirama placed his hand on her head. "Soul stripping! Memory reading!"

Countless tiny electric currents flashed across her head. A moment later, Senju obtained the information about her opponent. She released her grip, and Senju fell directly to the ground. The skill she had just used was a forbidden soul-type skill. It could extract the soul of a life that did not resist and then filter out the useful knowledge within the soul. However, after using it once, the opponent's soul would be completely destroyed. Senju would never use this skill in her normal state.

"I see," Hashirama nodded indifferently. This was the continent of Lucia, and the surrounding environment was originally a normal blue sky, white clouds, and green land. The current apocalyptic scene was the result of thousands of years of struggle among the gods for the throne of the One God.

Most importantly, Hashirama gained a wealth of knowledge from her mind, especially the various magical knowledge, which was invaluable. Hashirama even considered searching the souls of all the other races.

After casually tossing her body aside, Hashirama planned to look for new prey.

"Araned!" Just then, a scream came from afar. A huge beam of light hit Hashirama, and flames immediately erupted from his body. However, it wasn't that he caught fire, but rather that 'Hati' absorbed the magic.

As beams of light flew in from all directions, the flames on Hashirama's body instantly grew to over ten meters thick, completely blocking the surrounding beams.

Through the flames, Hashirama saw a distorted humanoid figure outside. As he reached out, the flames on his body instantly flowed onto his hand, forming a flame-colored fang.

He was looking at the other person, who was also a Winged Race. In Alaned's memory, she should be Jibril, the Winged Race's ace.

"Unforgivable! How dare she kill my people!" She looked furious, her eyes blazing with an eerie light. "Let everything here pay for her death, Sky Strike!"

"Let the fangs burn everything, Explosion!" Hashirama threw the fangs out with a backhand, and they were absorbed by a huge magic circle. Then, an even bigger beam of light collided with the opponent's huge beam of light, and the collision between the two sides immediately formed a huge unstable energy ball.

Seeing the unstable energy ball, the two were startled. Hashirama took the first step, "Teleport!"

As soon as Hashirama emerged from the space, a figure jumped out beside him. "You even have spatial abilities? What kind of species are you?"

"Life Drain!" Hashirama immediately activated the spell. The opponent also felt his magic power and physical strength decreasing, and punched Hashirama away. "What a rare species. I will put your head together with the head of the Dragon Spirit."

A massive amount of magical energy and life force surged into Hashirama's body, further strengthening his life force. The flames formed by Hati reappeared, "Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands!"

A giant wooden statue appeared, engulfed in flames, with countless hands on it also ablaze. It blasted at Jibril, who retaliated with a beam of light. However, she stopped after a while, because with each attack, the wooden statue and flames of Hashirama gradually grew larger.

“How strange, I’ve never heard of a creature like you before. Are you a mutant? Looks like I’ll have to use my real skills,” Jibril said with a grin, seemingly forgetting her companion’s tragic death. A huge black magic circle appeared above her head. “This is the unknown, ahahaha!”

“Native!” Hashirama said coldly. His ability to communicate immediately allowed Jibril to understand his meaning. A smile slowly spread across her face as she said, “Oh, is that so? It seems it’s time for you to face reality, monkey!”

Sensing the killing intent emanating from his opponent, Hashirama knew that the other party was now truly serious, and he also raised his aura, "Kamui Summoning!"

The rising aura caused the dark clouds in the sky to swirl, and the world seemed to shake. However, the other party did not seem to be intimidated. After a moment of stunned silence, he burst into laughter, "How lucky I am, Lord Artesius! Is this my reward? I never thought I could collect the head of a god!"

Hearing the other's maniacal laughter, Hashirama saw the other person strike a strange pose in the air, the magic circle above their head surging, and one hand aimed at Hashirama, "God Strike!"

A beam of light extended from her hand, slicing the massive wooden statue into several pieces. Hati seemed to have had no effect whatsoever, and was...

Hashirama, now reduced to fragments, was speechless; he hadn't expected his opponent to have hidden so much.

However, before he lost consciousness, his opponent came over to finish him off. Under the force of the fist, pieces of wood were pulverized, leaving only a huge Buddha head. However, Thousand Hands had already retreated. It would be too troublesome to continue fighting with her, and a bunch of bright magical reactions were running from a distance.

Chapter 616 The True Form Deployed

Seemingly sensing the annihilation of Hashirama's consciousness, Jibril flew towards her companions, holding up the enormous Buddha head, saying, "Look, I've obtained the head of a god-like being."

“Jibril, what’s wrong with you? What are you doing holding up a wooden statue? And with all those bumps on its head,” her companions asked bluntly as they gathered around, “How’s Araned?”

“It’ll probably need a major overhaul,” Jibril said, pulling Alaned’s ’corpse’ from the side. “Her magical energy fluctuations have completely stopped and need to be reloaded.”

“Strange, the halo is gone,” a group of people began examining the 'corpse'. “Let’s take it back and examine it carefully.”

"How dangerous, how dangerous! There are god-slayers over there too!" Thousand Hands patted his chest, but he decided to go there himself. The 'Star Cup' was too tempting. As long as he got it, he would immediately become the only god.

All he could think about now were the benefits of the Star Cup. He was currently caught up in a chaotic mess of various systems, but with it, he could completely integrate all his power and use it to completely control a world. He could freely manipulate various concepts, and in short, it had many advantages.

However, according to the extracted memories, obtaining the Star Cup requires defeating those divine beings. The Winged Race was created by one of these gods, and other gods created various other races. Senju felt that he might, probably, not be able to defeat those gods at all.

However, he then thought of the humans over there. They didn't seem to be under the command of any god. He could turn them into his own kin and then arm them with holy swords, magic, and machinery.

Once their military strength is sufficient, they can capture other races, strip them of their talents, and distribute them among all humans. Finally, they can lead the human army to defeat the gods.

Senju, who was having a great time, started preparing the props: one hundred steel-slaying swords, fifty Penglai jade branches, fifty Leivatin swords, fifty pseudo-modified railguns, a set of adventurer entry equipment plus countless adventurer cards, 20,000 bottles of upgrade potions, fifty small spaceships, ten medium-sized ones, and three large ones, and then put them all into his storage ring.

After he had prepared the items for several hours, Senju sent out a clone to scout the area and found that there was nothing there. The clone then rushed to the place where he had met Rick and hid there before Senju arrived.

Number Six was also reminding people about the time distortion issue, but this time Senju didn't choose to balance it because he was surprised to see that he had gained six more powers. This didn't exist in Japan at all. Could it be that Japan wasn't considered another world?

After using three powers, Senju solved the problem of time distortion between the worlds. The time on both sides was still different, but Senju could open his own space, although the flow of time within it was still different.

The fully prepared Senju was ready to make a big move when he discovered an awkward problem: where exactly were the most important humans hiding?

"Power - Tracking," Thousand Hands enhanced a hunter's skill with his power, and an arrow appeared pointing in a direction. After hiding himself, Thousand Hands quietly followed the arrow.

After navigating various challenging terrains, Senju arrived at a massive waterfall. "Hiding here? What a great spot."

He floated in gently. It was completely dark inside, but he could see very clearly, especially a cursor pointing the way.

After walking along the passage for a while, Senju arrived at a huge cave. There were glowing crystals everywhere, small pools of water on the ground, and many humans were working inside, as if it were farmland. There were also some wooden buildings around.

"Ahem," Thousand Hands dispelled the spell and coughed lightly. He was now dressed in a black robe and holding a magic wand, looking extremely mysterious. This was an outfit he had carefully chosen.

However, the people around seemed to shudder. Seeing that Senju didn't react, they immediately looked again. "Run! We've been discovered!"

A group of people shouted this, rushing towards Senju with all sorts of random things. Others also sounded the alarm, and the scene became chaotic. Senju watched speechlessly, "Slow!"

The people around immediately slowed down. Senju was deeply moved by their selfless actions, but he hadn't expected them to be so sensitive.

"Stop!" Senju shouted, startling everyone around him. They paused briefly before resuming their escape. Senju continued shouting, "I mean no harm! If you keep running, I'll get angry!"

"What happened?" A white-haired man rushed out, and Senju recognized his voice. "Yo, Riku, long time no see."

"Is this someone we know?" The people around stopped and looked at Rick with suspicion. Rick looked at Senju with suspicion. "Who are you?"

“It’s me, the person you met outside,” Senju said, glancing at the girl following beside him. “You’re here too. You were running away…”

As Senju was speaking, Riku ran over and covered his mouth.

He opened his mouth and said to everyone, "Haha, sorry, this is someone I know. I didn't recognize him just now. Hashirama, it's been a long time."

"What? He's someone Rick knows? But why can he use magic?"

Senju struggled for a moment before Rick carried her away, followed by the girl behind her. After the three entered the house, Rick released her, and Senju spat on the side.

Rick looked coldly at Senju, "Who exactly are you? The person we encountered wasn't like you."

"Well, that was just an avatar of mine. As for my true identity," Senju said proudly, "I am the creator god, Senju!"

"The Creator God?" Rick's body stiffened, then he stared at the Thousand Hands. "I wonder what brings such a divine being to the refuge of us lowly humans?"

“Well, I want to recruit the humans here,” Senju said calmly. “I need something, and I need your help.”

"Why look for useless humans like us? Aren't there plenty of other races?"

"Of course, it's because humans are the strongest."

"The strongest? Are you kidding me!"

"I believe that humanity is the strongest, which is why I am cooperating with you."
