Chapter 1066 The Final Day of the Great Summer God
Mount Gongger.
In the howling wind and snow, a hand suddenly grasped the edge of the nearly vertical mountainside, and a figure climbed to the summit with difficulty, rolling in the snow like mud for two turns before lying on their back.
Shortly after, another figure climbed up, coughed violently several times, staggered a few steps, and fell headlong into the snow.
The two teenagers lay at the summit, breathing heavily.
Lu Baoyou glanced at Fang Mo, the corners of his icy lips uncontrollably curving into an arc:
“You… cough cough… you were half a second slower than me.”
“If I hadn’t mistakenly grabbed an illusory rock and slid down a few meters, you would have been the slower one.” Fang Mo snorted, then after a pause, shook his head helplessly, “But I admit defeat… I acknowledge that you won this time, Lu Baoyou.”
Boom—!!
Surging divine light and deep humming came from the distant border. Lu Baoyou and Fang Mo were startled simultaneously, struggling to get up from the ground to look.
They saw endless black mist rolling not far from the border. In the vast snowy landscape, a magnificent black stone monument stood like a pillar reaching to the heavens. Countless gods stood beside the divine monument, rushing toward it one after another.
“Great Xia’s North Yin Fengdu Emperor, in response to the Heavenly Venerable’s decree, willingly sacrifices his cultivation to protect the people of Great Xia for eternal peace!”
“Great Xia’s Golden Immortal Chijingzi, in response to the Heavenly Venerable’s decree, willingly sacrifices his cultivation to protect the people of Great Xia for eternal peace!”
“Great Xia’s Golden Immortal Yellow Dragon, in response to the Heavenly Venerable’s decree, willingly sacrifices his cultivation to protect the people of Great Xia for eternal peace!”
“Great Xia’s Water Virtue Star Lord, in response to the Heavenly Venerable’s decree, willingly sacrifices his cultivation to protect the people of Great Xia for eternal peace!”
“…”
One after another, the gods of Great Xia, like moths to a flame, burned their lifelong divine power and cultivation, crashing into the towering stone monument.
Each time a god merged with it, the monument became more solid. By the time the rolling black mist approached the border of Great Xia, the monument had reached hundreds of meters in height!
“That, that is…” Fang Mo, watching this scene, was completely stunned.
Lu Baoyou stood at the summit, seemingly forgetting the fatigue and pain in his body, watching the distance like a stone statue, his eyes filled with deep shock.
“That is the phantom from a hundred years ago, when the gods of Great Xia sacrificed themselves to form a monument guarding the border.” A voice came from behind them.
The two turned to look and saw two men wearing deep red cloaks sitting on a protruding rock. One was Baili Pangpang whom they had just met, and the other was Shen Qingzhu, silently smoking.
“The phantom of Great Xia’s gods from a hundred years ago?” Fang Mo murmured, “Did all this really happen?”
“Of course, otherwise why would Great Xia’s Celestial Court fall apart, and why would the gods of Great Xia not appear for a hundred years?” Baili Pangpang sighed, “For these hundred years, they’ve actually always been here.”
Fang Mo and Lu Baoyou looked at the divine monument in the distance and fell silent.
Before this, they knew that Great Xia’s survival from the mist invasion was related to the gods of Great Xia, but they didn’t understand the details. Only now, as witnesses to this history, did they truly understand the truth behind it.
The reason they could be born and grow up safely was because a hundred years ago, countless Great Xia gods used their cultivation and bodies to build a wall of divine miracles for them.
Survival Day was also the final day for the gods of Great Xia.
Creak.
Boots stepped on the thick snow. Shen Qingzhu threw away his cigarette butt and calmly walked behind the two, his eyes gazing peacefully into the distance as he slowly spoke:
“Rookies.”
“Yes, sir!”
“…Salute.”
Shen Qingzhu stood straight, silently raising his right arm to give a standard military salute to the gods of Great Xia in the sky.
The howling wind and snow brushed across the faces of the two young men. They looked at the light flickering in Shen Qingzhu’s eyes, were stunned for a moment, then reacted, turning to face the direction of the Great Xia gods and solemnly saluting.
One by one, new recruits staggered up from the edge of the mountain peak, and seeing this scene, they all froze in place.
After learning everything from their companions, they stared at that time-clipped silhouette for a long while, biting their lips, dragging their exhausted bodies to stand straight, turning sideways toward the distance, raising their hands in salute.
That tragic and magnificent scene, those gods rushing toward the stone monument without hesitation, was deeply engraved in their hearts through their eyes.
The mountain peak, which should have been filled with cheers and excitement after passing the test, was now completely silent.
…
Kayush Border Defense Company.
“Damn it, what exactly is going on…”
Ke Changlin stood on top of the dormitory building, looking at the towering divine monument less than two kilometers from the border defense company, his eyes wide open.
“Gods… they’re all gods of Great Xia.” Su Zhe murmured, “But how can there be so many Great Xia gods here? And what’s with the mist?”
Hearing this, Ke Changlin suddenly froze.
“Gods? Could the legend be true?”
“What legend?”
Ke Changlin looked at the tall black divine monument in the distance and slowly spoke, “When I first came to this border defense company, I heard some old soldiers talk about rumors. When the mist first descended, a black divine monument mysteriously appeared not far from the border defense company, with many gods standing on clouds, like a dream.”
“Then what happened?” Su Zhe became interested.
“After daybreak, those gods and the divine monument all disappeared… but after that, the border mist never advanced even half an inch.” Ke Changlin frowned slightly, “Before, we all treated it as a story, saying they saw a mirage, but now it seems… it might not be that simple?”
As the two were talking, the speakers distributed throughout the border defense company suddenly emitted a buzzing electrical sound, and soon An Qingyu’s voice echoed throughout the entire border defense company:
“Please remain calm, everyone in the border defense company. Listen to my unified command…”
…
One divine shadow after another rushed toward the black divine monument, and the Great Xia gods standing against the misty border grew fewer and fewer.
“Young friend Lin.” A voice came from behind Lin Qiye. A Taoist was standing behind him, looking at him with a complex expression.
“Jade Tripod True Person!”
Lin Qiye immediately recognized the Jade Tripod True Person who had led him into the Peach Banquet in Kunlun Void.
“Young friend Lin, you should not get involved in this matter,” the Jade Tripod True Person said seriously. “You have not yet entered the divine realm, and even if you sacrifice yourself to the monument, it won’t have much effect. Let us older generation handle this…
We are about to enter reincarnation, and for a long time to come, Great Xia will be entrusted to young people like you.”
