Chapter 2202: Battle of Gods

Outside Kunlun, in the vast nothingness of the void.

The place was supposed to be dark, but it was currently illuminated by a dazzling divine light. Powerful divine power flowed like the tide.

Many deities from both Celestial Court and Infernal Court made their move, and an intense divine battle broke out.

BANG!

Heavenly Mugwort Bell containing boundless divine power flew out, cutting through the vast swath of darkness and sending a Rakshasa deity flying. As a result, a large amount of diving blood was spewed.

Even a deity could not withstand the blow. Numerous cracks appeared on the deity’s body as if it was about to be shattered into pieces.

Roar!

The Rakshasa deity let out an earth-shaking roar and released the divine power within his body, forming a huge Sphere of Chaos about the size of a planet. His divine body rapidly grew larger, with the cracks on his body disappearing simultaneously.

In the blink of an eye, the body of the Rakshasa deity grew even taller. It was half the size of the Sphere of Chaos, releasing endless majestic divine power.

When one attained Godhood, they would undergo huge changes in their physical lifeforms. Not only their blood Qi would increase rapidly, but it could also break through suppression on a space. When this happened, yet they could not make it to the legendary realm of god, they would at least turn into a divine giant.

A deity would use divine power to suppress its body to maintain its normal form under normal circumstances.

Usually, only when a life-and-death battle was going on would a deity reveal true form and unleash strength without holding back.

Apparently, this Rakshasa deity had sensed a great threat and thus lifted all restraints he had imposed to his strength.

“How dare you puny scum roar in front of me?” Wargod Bian Zhuang said in a deep voice.

As he spoke, his Heavenly Mugwort Bell rapidly grew in size. Like a spinning macroworld, it pressed down on the Sphere of Chaos where the Rakshasa deity stood.

At this moment, another Rakshasa deity rushed over. He was thousands of feet tall, which was the size that of mountains. He was wearing a dark ruby red armor, displaying an imposing aura. He emitted copious amounts of divine power, and unleashed a Divine Seal barreling towards Heavenly Mugwort Bell.

“You can’t stop me even if I want to kill him, Rayan!”

Wargod Bian Zhuang’s spoke overbearingly as he looked down on Rayan.

The Celestial River flowing under his feet surged rapidly and instantly grew a hundred thousand miles in length. It pulsed with unparalleled divine power as it surged towards the divine seal and Rayan.

Taking advantage of this gap, Heavenly Mugwort Bell instantly pressed down and broke through the Sphere of Chaos. It crushed the divine body of the Rakshasa deity until it exploded apart.

However, deities were not beings that could be killed this easily.

They possessed astonishing divine vitality. Even if their divine bodies were shattered, they could quickly reassemble. Every inch of their body contained divine spirits and the essence of their willpower, and it would be possible to reconstruct their divine bodies with merely a drop of divine blood.

To kill a deity, one had to break the deity’s Divinity Source and destroy the divine soul. By doing so, simultaneously, the divine spirit and the essence of their willpower had to be eliminated as well.

However, it was unlikely to wipe out all traces of a deity in the world.

The reason was that a deity would fuse a small amount of their Divine Soul into the precepts of heaven and earth. He would wander between the space and coexist with the world.

A deity could still be destroyed, but whoever tried would have to expend a lot of energy and pay a great price.

Under normal circumstances, very few people would do such an arduous and unrewarding thing.

The few divine souls wandering would have too little hope of being reborn.

The Rakshasa deity quickly reconstructed his body. However, being trapped inside Heavenly Mugwort Bell, he could not break free.

Purple and green divine light surged from Heavenly Mugwort Bell, dissipating the lifeforce and spirit of the Rakshasa deity.

There was also a terrifying power that seeped into the body of the Rakshasa deity, which directly attacked his divine soul through the Divinity Source.

It was obvious that it was going to kill him by force.

To other deities, killing a deity was tough. However, Wargod Bian Zhuang had done it many times, and his weapon—Heavenly Mugwort Bell—was basically a deity slayer.

Rayan looked grim because he was restrained by Bian Zhuang Wargod’s Celestial River. He could only watch as that deity of his clan became weaker and weaker.

‘This madman Bian Zhuang had not made a scene for a hundred thousand years but his strength has increased so much. He’s a great trouble indeed,’ Rayan thought to himself.

During the War of Gods in the Middle Ages, Rayan had fought Wargod Bian Zhuang. At that time, Wargod Bian Zhuang was already very strong. However, compared to his past self, the current Bian Zhuang was even stronger.

As time passed, the Rakshasa deity had become weaker and weaker. His life force, divine spirit, and essence of willpower in his body were gradually obliterated.

In the end, even his divine soul was shattered by Heavenly Mugwort Bell, leaving behind was only his physical body.

In the vast starry sky of Infernal Court, the three Divine Planets representing this deity dimmed and stopped emitting any light.

At this moment, all the cultivators below the starry sky couldn’t help but raise their heads to look, with fear clutching at their hearts.

The light of any Divine Planets going out would mean that a deity had fallen.

This battle was destined to shake Celestial Court and Infernal Court.

In the void, the deities of Infernal Court roared in anger, and their roars shook the sky and earth.

Rayan’s expression became even more grave. Wargod Bian Zhuang had slaughtered a Rakshasa deity of his clan in front of him. ‘This wargod was going too far!’

“Bian Zhuang, you have gone too far! You better watch out!”

Wargod Bian Zhuang laughed and said, “Rayan, you are the one who should watch out. I can kill you anytime!”

As he spoke, Wargod Bian Zhuang put away the dead body of the Rakshasa deity and used Heavenly Mugwort Bell to launch a fierce attack on Rayan.

Wargod Bian Zhuang did not say it for fun. He meant what he said.

On the other side, Moon Goddess was fighting with a charming deity from Infernal Court.

This deity was none other than Asurendra Samay.

Its body was emitting a strong demonic battle Qi, and there was also an incomparably condensed River of Time coiled around his body, with countless Marks of Time dancing around him.

Even though in battle, this deity from Infernal Court appeared incomparably elegant. Every single one of its actions was filled with a sense of beauty, as though it was dancing gracefully.

Asurendra Samay’s appearance was exactly the same as that of humans, and its striking temperament could move even the hearts of the gods.

On the surface, Asurendra Samay wasn’t much different from the other deities.

But in reality, its current state was very special. It had neither a divine body nor a Divinity Source. The only part of him left was his divine soul.

Asurendra Samay’s true form was a jade—the Divine Jade of Time. During the battle in the Middle Ages, Asurendra Samay had suffered severe injuries to besiege Saint Monk Xumi. As a result, it was reduced to dust, and its divine soul was beaten until it was on the verge of collapse. Its soul escaped narrowingly by scattering in the world.

Asurendra Samay was the same as Moon Goddess. Both of them had been asleep for a hundred thousand years and only recently woke up.

Its divine soul had already become concentrated once more.

Not long later, Asurendra Samay would face another Yuanhui Tribulation.

After being dormant for a hundred thousand years and losing its divine body and Divinity Source, no matter how strong its divine soul was, it would still be very difficult for it to survive.

Hence, Asurendra Samay thought of possession.

With its powerful divine soul, as long as it found a suitable body, no matter how weak it was, it could quickly nurture the flesh body into a divine body.

It would need about 1,000 years to recover to its prime.

The reason it came to Kunlun in a hurry was to obtain a body for possession as soon as possible.

After all, Asurendra Samay was a peerless elite who could fight against Saint Monk Xumi. Even though he only had one divine soul left, his combat strength was still extremely strong, with the River of Time attacking in all directions.

Moon Goddess could only match Asurenda Samay in battle by relying on the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron that she borrowed from Zhang Ruochen. From this, it could be seen how terrifying Asurenda Samay was at his peak. Only someone with his strength was qualified to battle with Saint Monk Xumi.

..

Boom!

A strong burst of divine power swept through the void.

Huang Tian stood 30,000 feet tall, and in his hand was a stone battle-ax with Chaotic Qi flowing around him. He was like a giant god that could split open the sky with unparalleled divine might, standing while looking down disdainfully.

Bang!

The four deities from the Fane of Truth attacking Huang Tian were sent flying because they were unable to withstand the attack.

Some of the deities went furious, and divine blood spew from their mouths.

Upon seeing this scene, many of the deities present could not help but reveal their shock.

“How long has Huang Tian attained godhood? His strength had actually reached such levels that the four divine lords from the Celestial Domain of Truth together were unable to withstand a blow from his axe.”

“He is indeed worthy of being known as one of the legendary two deities with Wargod Bloodximius during the past 129,600 years in Infernal Court. His combat strength is so strong that it rivals ancient gods which have survived numerous Yuanhui Tribulations.”

“Both Huang Tian and Wargod Bloodximius have become the new wardens of Infernal Court. Wargod Bloodximius ruled Bloodysky Clan, while Huang Tian built his force.”

“A thousand years ago, Huang Tian set up a trap to lure out Ancient Buddha Yuan Xu from the Western Buddha Realm. He killed him single handedly, infuriating the entire Western Buddha Realm. However, they could only watch and do nothing.”

The deities were buzzing about the past events of Huang Tian. They could even spare time to look at him even when they were engaged in battle.

The lord of the Fane of Truth in charge of the Fane of Truth walked out and appeared in front of the four deities from the Fane of Truth, and she looked squarely towards Huang Tian.

“I never expected that The lord of the Fane of Truth would come personally… this comes as a surprise to me,” Huang Tian said loudly.

The lord of the Fane of Truth gazed at Huang Tian briefly, and she spoke with eyes full of disappointment, “Huang Tian, you have really disappointed me. I have never expected that you would murder your own Master.”

“You were once someone ordinary. But after listening to the Ancient Buddha Yuan Xu recite the scriptures and preach for so long, you have gained sentience. Since then, Ancient Buddha Yuan Xu devoted all his efforts in nurturing you and even sending you to the Stone World to pursue the ultimate secret of the Path of Life.”

“It was precisely because of Ancient Buddha Yuan Xu that the Fane of Truth did its best to nurture you, allowing you to gradually become the Envoy of Truth.”

“But I never expected that you would be led astray by the Stone Master and join the enemies of the Celestial Court. You went from pursuing the Path of Life to pursuing the path of death and destruction, and even killed your benefactor in cold blood. How could I tolerate this behaviour?”

Towards the end, The Lord of the Fane of Truth could barely conceal her rage.

Huang Tian had originally a cultivator from Celestial Court. He was born to Western Buddha Realm and had cultivated in Stone World before rising up in the Fane of Truth.

The Stone Clan was one of the larger clans, and it was not an exclusive race to Infernal Court. After all, there were rocks everywhere in the world, and these rocks could gain sentience by chance.

In the Celestial Court, there was a Stone World where countless Stone Clan cultivators lived.

The difference was that the Stone Clan in Infernal Court cultivated the Path of Death in order to destroy all living creatures, but the Stone Clan in the Stone World cultivates the Path of Life, exploring the true essence of living. The two of them couldn’t be more different.

This was a difference between their fundamental way of thinking.

The Stone Clan in Stone World believed that they had received the gift of life from having none. Therefore, they yearned and cherished the idea of living.

However, the Stone Clan of Infernal Court wanted to destroy all living beings, so that the entire universe would become a member of the Stone Clan. This was because that all living things would turn back into dust on they had perished.

Huang Tian and Wargod Bloodximius were the most talented cultivators representing each side. They were also each other’s opponents, just like Zhang Ruochen and Yan Wushen in the current era.

Both of them were the most talented geniuses of their time and had fought each other for many years.

Unfortunately, Huang Tian was bewitched by the Stone Master, which caused him to change his beliefs and Path, thus joining Infernal Court.

The Stone Master was the head of the Stone Clan, one of the three clans in Infernal Court. He was an extremely ancient overlord with terrifying combat strength and an immeasurably long lifespan.

During the catastrophe in the Middle Ages, many deities in the Celestial Court fell at the hands of the Stone Master.

The lord of the Fane of Truth had once thought highly of Huang Tian and had once even considered letting him succeed as temple master..

However, she did not expect that Huang Tian would betray the Fane of Truth, Celestial Court, and even cut off the Divine Sky-connecting Tree of Kunlun in the end, which really put them into shame.

Even now, The lord of the Fane of Truth still felt heartbroken.

“You simply don’t understand. What the Stone Master insisted on was right. The entire universe should come under the stone race.” Huang Tian said indifferently, “The cultivators of the Stone World were led astray by the Celestial Court. They were born as stones, yet they wanted to pursue the true meaning of life. How laughable.”

“Yuan Xu has indeed treated me kindly and I did not want to kill him originally, but he had too much of an influence over me. My consciousness and thoughts all have his brand. If I don’t kill him, my cultivation will forever be restrained under him.

“When I wanted to kill him, Yuan Xu still wanted me to turn a new leaf and even willing to died for me. Little did he know that my heart was stonecold?”

Huang Tian spoke calmly as if he was talking about something trivial.

He didn’t feel any guilt or regret for killing his master.

His heart, was as cold as a rock without any emotion within.

To be more precise, it was like a stone.

“You are so stubborn. Today, I am going to purge the traitor and take back that portion of Canon of Truth.” The lord of the Fane of Truth deepened her gaze and radiated a terrifying murderous intent.

BOOM!

As she spoke, a Black Divine Mountain appeared behind her. It was very similar to the Mountain of Truth that lies in the Sea of Truth.

Billions of intricate Divine Marks appeared on the surface of the Black Divine Mountain. The divine power was vast like the ocean, and it even caused the emptiness of the void to ripple violently.

“If the mountain obstructs me, I will split it.”

Not a glimmer of fear was showed in Huang Tian’s eyes. The stone ax in his hand started to awaken, revealing a large amount of chaotic energy conduits.

This ax was born with him. It was an innate mystical item that contained infinite mysteries. After many years of painstaking refinement, it had become incomparably powerful and unstoppable.

The stone ax was shot out, becoming as huge as the Black Divine Mountain.

Bang!

The two collided, creating terrifying ripples of power.

The lord of the Fane of Truth remained unmoved, but Huang Tian’s arm spasmed, and he nearly lost his grip on the stone ax. He was pushed back hundreds of miles as the divine light on his body dimmed.

Huang Tian’s expression could not help but turn grave.

To be able to a lord to an ancient Fane, the lord of the Fane of Truth had unfathomable strength.

Even someone as powerful as him could not see through it…

The lord of the Fane of Truth was even more shocked. She did not expect Huang Tian’s combat strength to attain such a high level in the span of 129,600 years. Even she would find it extremely difficult to destroy him completely.
