Chapter 1440 Great Xia God Counterattacks
Bell—!
The rose-colored flame spear and the broad blade simultaneously blocked a giant beast’s claw, followed by a flash of sword light, and the beast’s head rolled on the ground.
Red Ying looked at the beast’s corpse on the ground, the rose-fire feather robe around her body gradually receding. Large beads of sweat slid down her temples as she exhaled deeply in exhaustion…
“How many is that now?”
“Should be the sixth one,” Molly replied, her face somewhat pale.
“Captain Miao, we’ve dealt with most of the beasts that broke through our defense line, right?”
Nearby, Miao Su sheathed her straight sword. Her right arm, wrapped in bandages, trembled slightly. Beneath those bandages, a horrific bite mark from the beast was hidden.
“Just about,” she said.
Miao Su turned to look at everyone, her expression complicated.
The original team of seven was now down to five. One person had been torn to pieces while fighting off the beasts, and another was critically injured, having been sent to the emergency room.
“You all heard Commander Zuo’s orders just now, right?” Miao Su asked.
“Yes,” everyone nodded.
“Captain Miao, we should get moving,” Wen Qimo said seriously. “We can’t miss this final battle.”
“That’s right, Captain Miao, let’s go beyond the wall.”
Seeing the determination in the eyes of these four members, Miao Su’s lips curved slightly upward. She took a deep breath and said:
“Alright! When the fighting starts, stay behind me, understood?”
Red Ying and the others exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.
With her straight sword at her waist, Miao Su led the four through the devastated land between the inner and outer walls, heading straight for the breach.
Just then, a tremendous sound came from the distant sky. They all looked up to see countless dazzling divine lights trailing brilliant streaks across the sky, thundering toward another direction.
The final divine battle between the Heavenly Court and the Temple of Gods had begun!
…
The divine battlefield.
On the Temple of Gods’ side.
This thunderous boom also caught their attention. Several Indian deities who were fighting against the Xia gods saw this and their expressions suddenly changed.
The Sun God Surya’s surging divine power pushed back the Kunlun Mirror as he rapidly retreated. Looking at the Queen Mother of the West who had been battling with him for a day and a night, he spoke gravely:
“You really dare to fight us to the death? Don’t you care about your believers’ lives?”
“Believers? We of Great Xia have no believers, only citizens who live here,” the Queen Mother said calmly. “As long as we defeat you before those disgusting monsters destroy Chennan Pass, Great Xia will remain safe.”
“Arrogant!”
Surya snorted coldly, though inwardly he felt uncertain.
Although they had initially gained the upper hand by catching Great Xia off guard, as more Xia gods arrived, the battle had reached a stalemate. Their strength was gradually being depleted, and at this point, they weren’t confident they could win against the all-out counterattack from the Xia gods… If the Xia gods were truly determined to sacrifice those ordinary people, the Temple of Gods had almost no chance of victory.
They had assumed that the proud Xia gods would never abandon the lives of billions of believers, which was why they dared to open the “Empty Gate” and directly invade Great Xia’s territory.
The decision of the Xia gods had completely disrupted their plans.
“You claim to protect those ordinary people, but when it comes down to it, you choose to abandon them?” Surya said coldly, trying to provoke the Queen Mother. “The Great Xia Heavenly Court acts so high and mighty, but you’re just a bunch of hypocritical gods.”
“If we were truly self-righteous, we wouldn’t have shattered our cultivation realms a hundred years ago, entering the cycle of reincarnation to protect Great Xia’s territory from the mist’s invasion,” the Queen Mother replied calmly, unmoved. “This was never about abandonment… but trust. We trust ourselves, and we trust them.”
“Them? You mean those insects below?”
“Only those who are mediocre and willingly degenerate are insects,” the Queen Mother raised her hand, pointing to Chennan Pass below. “Great Xia’s strength doesn’t lie in us gods… but in them. Facing deities with mortal bodies, they are the foundation of Great Xia.”
Surya’s expression grew increasingly grim. A scorching sun rose behind him, and terrifying divine might swept out!
“Arrogant country, arrogant people, do you really think you’ve already won?”
Surya roared, dazzling solar flares flickering around him. His form transformed into a beam of divine light, instantly shifting to appear before the Queen Mother, and a massive beam of light erupted forth!
The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes slightly. The Kunlun Mirror in her palm radiated a strange divine light as she said calmly:
“Do you really think you could battle with me for a day because your strength is close to mine?”
As she spoke, the Kunlun Mirror in her palm rapidly rotated, instantly covering half the sky. A jade-white hand suddenly pressed against the solar flare beam, actually blocking it in mid-air with her bare hand!
Terrifying divine might dissipated at the Queen Mother’s fingertips, leaving several charred marks… but that was the extent of it.
Seeing this, Surya’s pupils contracted slightly!
Boom—!
The Kunlun Mirror in the sky rapidly descended, forcefully crushing the blazing sun behind Surya. He let out a muffled groan as his body was sent flying backward.
Blood seeped from his seven apertures. Gritting his teeth, he was about to make a move when his vision blurred, and a figure wearing a gold-threaded purple robe had already stepped out from the void above his head.
“In this day of combat, I have long seen through your strength. If I weren’t concerned about those ‘mother beasts’ devouring your corpse… you would have died half a day ago,” she said.
Powerful waves of divine power surged around the Queen Mother. She pointed her finger in mid-air, and a beam of white light shot from her fingertip, precisely piercing through Surya’s glabella!
With a terrified gaze, Surya’s life force rapidly faded.
At the same time, an invisible ripple spread beneath him, instantly swallowing him without a trace. The Queen Mother frowned and immediately reached out to grab him, but could only grasp emptiness.
The next moment, an invisible ripple spread behind the Indian gods. Surya’s corpse fell from the sky and was immediately devoured by several huge, distorted mother beasts. Crimson divine blood flowed from their mouths as their auras rapidly increased!
These mother beasts were of unknown origin. After devouring Surya’s corpse, their abdomens swelled within seconds. A few seconds later, a litter of smaller divine beasts emerged from beneath their bodies, rushing rapidly toward Chennan Pass!
“Something is transporting their corpses, either a deity with special law abilities or some divine artifact.”
Having killed Surya with one finger, the Queen Mother’s face visibly darkened, and a trace of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth, suggesting she had also suffered significant damage.
She sensed the ripples dissipating in the void and murmured to herself.
