Chapter 263: The Divine of Great Xia
Under the pitch-black sky, Indra, surrounded by swirling lightning, floated in the air, dense ball lightning circling around him, emitting a low, rumbling hum.
On the ground, a battered carriage stood to the side, and Master Chen, dressed in white, stood before it.
The chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers around him were constantly shattered and reformed by the thunder, like a blade of grass swaying in the storm; despite the violent shaking, it still stood tall and firm.
Master Chen held a ruler in his hand, continuously striking at the falling thunder. The tip of the ruler had already turned charred black, and his face was grim as he stood there, the burn marks left by the lightning clearly visible on his white robe.
“Ants, if you continue to hide in the carriage, I might not be able to do anything to you…,” Indra looked down at the disheveled Master Chen, sneering as he spoke, “but you insist on seeking your own death by coming out to fight me. Now, can you still escape?!”
Boom—!!
A thick bolt of lightning struck down on Master Chen’s head, most of it dispersed by the ruler in his hand, while the remaining part crashed down onto his heartscape, causing him to grunt and turn pale.
He snorted coldly, straightened his back, and declared loudly:
“Killing my kin and ravaging my homeland, if I still avoid battle at this moment, what face do I have to call myself a citizen of the Great Xia?”
“The territory of Great Xia cannot allow you to act recklessly?!”
Master Chen waved the ruler in his hand, a torrent of killing intent sweeping through the sky, almost solidifying. The sound of reading echoed from his heartscape, grand and magnificent!
Indra transformed into a flash of lightning, his right foot suddenly kicking against the killing intent, the lightning surged, forcefully shattering the killing intent!
“Ridiculous!” A look of disdain appeared in Indra’s eyes. “You mortals truly overestimate yourselves! Do not forget, you Great Xia have no gods, so… who gave you the courage to provoke us deities?!”
Indra stomped down again, directly crushing a large area of Master Chen’s heartscape. Master Chen spat out a mouthful of blood and staggered back several steps.
“A group of ants dares to challenge the gods; do you think you are worthy?!” Indra’s cold laughter echoed through the heavens and the earth.
Master Chen tightly gripped the ruler in his hand, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, took a deep breath, and once again stood proudly against the thunder of the heavens.
“Today, even if I sacrifice this body, I will let you foreign gods see what it means to… not be bullied by Great Xia!”
The heartscape around Master Chen surged, the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers had completely vanished, replaced by a blood-red abyss.
A cold and powerful aura overflowed from within, as if some extremely terrifying killing move was brewing.
At that moment, a brilliant divine light shot out from between the cities, piercing through the three realms of heaven, earth, and the underworld. The layers of thunderclouds piled above the city were instantly pierced, creating an exaggerated large void!
A terrifying aura descended upon the world!!
Indra sensed this aura, and his expression changed instantly. He abruptly looked up into the distance, his eyes filled with suspicion.
Master Chen was taken aback and turned to look.
Under the dusk, the evening glow penetrated the void in the thunderclouds, and the orange light resembled a blinding pillar, cascading down from the heavens to the earth. Above the dark city skyline, this ray of light tore apart all darkness.
In that orange evening glow, a figure clad in silver armor, wielding a three-pronged double-edged knife, was stepping through the void, slowly approaching.
Beside him was a fierce black dog.
That is… Master Chen stared blankly at the figure walking out from the evening glow, his hand gripping the ruler trembled slightly, and unprecedented excitement appeared in his eyes.
—I am Yang Jian.
In the evening glow, a deep voice echoed through the heavens and the earth, stretching for thousands of miles.
Yang Jian, stepping through the void, slowly spoke, the vertical pupil on his forehead bursting forth with endless divine light, locking onto the floating Indra in the sky, a terrifying killing intent sweeping through the world!
“Who says… we Great Xia have no gods?!”
Boom—!!!
Yang Jian’s figure vanished in an instant, as if breaking through the boundless void, directly appearing before Indra!
Indra’s pupils suddenly contracted, the thunder around him surged, trying to block this man before him, but the next moment, that hand easily shattered all the lightning within a ten-mile radius, gripping Indra’s throat!!
The lightning shattered!
Silver light filled the sky!!
Yang Jian grasped Indra’s neck, his eyes narrowing slightly, and he coldly spoke:
“With you, with all of you… how dare you call yourselves gods?!”
Indra’s eyes were filled with endless fear and confusion, as if an earthquake had struck. His body instantly transformed into lightning, attempting to escape Yang Jian’s grasp!
The next moment, the divine light from the vertical pupil on Yang Jian’s forehead reappeared, directly sealing all space, no matter how hard Indra struggled, he could not escape even a fraction.
Yang Jian’s hand suddenly exerted force, directly slamming Indra from the sky to the ground, producing a piercing roar. The terrifying shockwave erupted on the empty ground, dense spiderweb-like cracks rapidly spreading.
In the center of the terrifying pit on the ground, as Indra was about to rise, Yang Jian’s figure once again moved in front of him.
Boom—!!
Yang Jian stomped on Indra’s chest, causing the surrounding ground to sink several dozen meters!
You, who rely on sacrificing your citizens and abandoning your homeland, barely surviving in the fog… are the ones who are defiling the word ‘god’!
Yang Jian leaned down, gripping Indra’s shoulder, and forcefully hurled him upward. Indra’s body was sent directly to an altitude of ten thousand meters, while Yang Jian, wielding the three-pronged double-edged knife, rode the silver lightning, soaring into the clouds!
The silver light flashed, and the three-pronged double-edged knife sliced through Indra’s arm, sending a severed hand flying through the air, blood splattering everywhere.
Indra’s features twisted violently, anger and pain flooding his mind. He let out a low roar, and a thick bolt of lightning fell from the heavens, directly striking at Yang Jian!
Yang Jian showed no intention of dodging, his figure like lightning, charging toward the bolt of lightning. The three-pronged double-edged knife suddenly swung out, forcefully cleaving the lightning in two!
The lightning splattered against the bright blade, and Yang Jian, like a peerless fierce god, instantly appeared before Indra.
“We, the gods of Great Xia, sacrifice our lifelong divine power and bodies, transforming into nine national guardian monuments to defend our borders, preventing the fog from encroaching even a fraction into Great Xia’s territory, ensuring that our Great Xia citizens are not harmed by the fog!”
Yang Jian’s three-pronged double-edged knife struck again, directly slicing through Indra’s neck, beheading him!
He took a deep breath and shouted loudly:
“We, the gods of Great Xia, share life and death with the citizens of Great Xia!!”
“There are places that must be defended, people that must be protected, and beliefs that must be upheld!”
“This is what it means to be a deity!”
Indra’s blood filled the sky, and Yang Jian stood proudly, drenched in blood, above the nine heavens.
He held Indra’s head, his gaze seemingly piercing through endless space, landing on the other divine realms within the fog, and shouted loudly:
“A hundred years of reincarnation have passed! Today, the gods of Great Xia… return here!!”
