Chapter 177: The Black Dog's Heaven-Shattering Roar, Vertical Pupil's Majestic Display!

Chapter 177: The Black Dog's Heaven-Shattering Roar, Vertical Pupil's Majestic Display!

In the distance from Xiao Shi Village, two men clad in iron armor were hiding, their eyes filled with a playful look as they observed the scene.

"Are you not going to help Liu Yan?" the tall man in iron armor asked.

"That arrogant Liu Yan has been disrespectful to the Deity Lord, he deserves to die and make room for someone else!" replied the short man in iron armor.

The tall man nodded, "This Ancient Deity from Qing Shui Village has some abilities, he's killed two New Deities."

"Perfect," the short man said, "The New Deities under Gale Wind Town are not direct descendants of the adult. By sweeping them clean, the adult can step in and annihilate the Ancient Deity of Qing Shui Village, then bring in the direct descendants to take their place."

The Lynx Wolf Evil Deity of Gale Wind Town had already learned of Qi Yuan's arrival in the village several days ago.

However, the lynx wolf wasn't concerned at all.

The New Deities under Gale Wind Town were not his direct descendants, and some even belonged to opposing factions.

So, he took the opportunity to use the Ancient Deity of Qing Shui Village to slaughter the villages under Gale Wind Town.

By doing so, he could openly place his own people after killing Qi Yuan.

Of course, the lynx wolf wasn't a fool, and he understood the risks of keeping potential threats alive.

He sent two Temple Guards to scout the enemy's situation.

At this moment, the suona horn sounded, and the two Temple Guards were alert, looking towards the source of the sound.

They saw a long procession moving swiftly.

However, this procession didn't seem like a military expedition but rather a funeral procession.

The tall iron-armored guard couldn't help but smile, "The Ancient Deity of Qing Shui Village is truly an extraordinary deity."

"The leading Divine Dog is quite exceptional!" the short guard remarked.

"But it's only the Initial Stage of the Purple Mansion, nothing to be afraid of!" the tall guard said.

As Temple Guards, they were the most elite warriors in Gale Wind Town, also at the Initial Stage of the Purple Mansion.

There were over thirty guards of their level in Gale Wind Town.

Naturally, they didn't think much of a mere Initial Stage Purple Mansion black dog.

"I heard that the Ancient Deity of Qing Shui Village has strength not even reaching the Purple Mansion, but he possesses a powerful Sacrificial Artifact. It was with this artifact that he killed two New Deities!" the short guard said, "This artifact should be in the lynx wolf adult's possession!"

Among the Seven Towns, the lynx wolf adult's reputation wasn't prominent.

But these assimilated Temple Guards knew very well that the lynx wolf they worshipped had strength beyond the peak of the Purple Mansion.

He had even opened half of his divine orifices!

This could be called a Semi-Deity!

That was why the Southern Palace Wuji at the peak of the Purple Mansion was injured by the lynx wolf.

The two guards hid as the suona horn grew louder.

The tall guard laughed, "The show is about to begin!"

Both of them, as higher-ranking individuals, watched the village battle from above.

At this moment, Liu Yan from Xiao Shi Village soared into the air, emitting a terrifying aura.

"To send a mere dog to provoke us, Qing Shui Village humiliates us! They will surely face retribution!"

The sound of the suona horn had not yet arrived, but the voice was already heard.

The Evil Deity Liu Yan rose into the air, and the villagers' faith condensed into a Sacrificial Artifact, emitting the aura of Primordial Power.

Without hesitation, he struck out, venting the anger in his heart.

This strike of Primordial Power, accumulated over decades, was incredibly terrifying.

Even a mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivator would struggle to withstand this attack.

But it was just a single strike.

Zhu Zhuangshi's face turned worried, "Can the Big Black Dog handle it?"

Although the Big Black Dog was at the Purple Mansion stage, it was undoubtedly stronger than Liu Yan in a prolonged battle.

However, it had just broken through to the Purple Mansion using the Divine Visualization Technique.

Its mastery over Primordial Power was not yet proficient.

Only if the Primordial Power's level was too high could it withstand this attack! Village Chief Yu Le and the Divine Official Shen Tu both had similar thoughts.

They hadn't expected the enemy to be so challenging.

In front of the villagers, the Big Black Dog's eyes flashed with a mocking expression.

It suddenly flew towards the sky, and a lion-like roar shook the heavens.

Its large mouth sucked in the clouds above.

And then, a terrifying event occurred.

The clouds in the sky seemed to pour into the dog's mouth as if a gaping hole had formed in the river.

The Heaven Roaring Dog's power was to swallow and spew clouds.

The Big Black Dog had also gained this power through visualization!

It devoured the clouds in the sky.

The Big Black Dog faced Liu Yan.

Instantly, multicolored mist gushed out.

The mist contained a mixture of heavenly fire, earthly fire, gale wind, and more.

This mist was no ordinary mist.

Liu Yan's eyes widened in shock.

"Your Primordial Power... how is it not of this realm's origin?"

He couldn't understand, and a cry of agony escaped his lips.

His Sacrificial Artifact had already been burned by this Primordial Power.

His body was also torn apart.

That was not mist!

It was fire!

At this moment, the tall and short men hiding in the distance were stunned.

"Is this Primordial Power not of this realm's origin, Evil Deity?"

If Qi Yuan had already hidden the origin of his Primordial Power, he might have even influenced those who saw his Primordial Power through the Stellar Golden Core.

But the Big Black Dog didn't have such abilities.

The Primordial Power it had just gained through visualization was not yet adapted to this realm's origin.

So, with a single strike, the powerful individuals present could discern that this Primordial Power didn't belong to this realm!

The tall and short men's faces paled.

With the appearance of an evil deity, this matter must be promptly reported to the Lynx Wolf.

The two were preparing to quietly retreat.

Suddenly, a vertical pupil suddenly appeared beside the Big Black Dog.

A voice, seemingly imbued with the rules of heaven and earth, resonated.

"Who dares to spy in this place?"

Everyone's gaze involuntarily turned towards the remnant of the vertical pupil.

"This..." The short, armored man trembled all over.

Just the remnant of the vertical pupil was enough to make him tremble in fear, as if facing an unmatched, towering heavenly deity.

"What kind of true deity is this?" The tall man couldn't comprehend.

He had once witnessed the primordial power of the Ancient Deity's followers, a Great Venerable-level manifestation.

However, compared to this remnant of the vertical pupil, it wasn't even one-hundredth as powerful, let alone one-tenth!

This was an existence beyond his understanding!

Following the dignified, cold, and ruthless voice, a golden light appeared out of thin air, and the bodies of the short armored man and the tall man turned into ashes in an instant! They completely disappeared from this world.

In Gale Wind Town, the Lynx Wolf suddenly opened his eyes, and a strand of blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. "What's going on?"

Just now, he had suddenly felt an impending disaster, as if a great terror had descended.

And his body had inexplicably suffered injuries without any apparent reason.

"Could it be... someone is targeting me?" The Lynx Wolf's expression shifted between gloom and brightness.

"Recently, I should keep a low profile."

The Lynx Wolf decided that before figuring out this matter, he needed to maintain a low profile.

...

"This..."

Village Chief Yu Le stared at the vanished vertical pupil, his heart unable to calm down for a long time.

Shi Zhongshan also felt the same way. In his entire life, this was the first time he had witnessed such a powerful and towering, even indescribable, shadow.

The Big Black Dog knelt on its front legs, its tail wagging frantically.

The people in the field had solemn expressions, all aware that this matter was absolutely terrifying and must not be leaked.

"If anyone reveals today's events, they will face destruction!" Village Chief Yu Le declared.

Zhu Zhuangshi also realized the importance of the situation.

The wailing women and the fat chef with big ears all nodded in agreement.

The lowest among them had reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

Most of them were at the Core Formation stage.

In the distance, Qi Yuan, inside the temple, opened his eyes, a trace of astonishment flashing in his eyes. "Buy one get one free?"

He hadn't expected that by merely visualizing the Heaven Roaring Dog, he would receive such a grand gift... the Second Brother Divine Manifestation True Monarch!

In the mythological history of Blue Planet, the Second Brother Deity possessed an extremely legendary divine aura.

Whether it was Yang Jian from the Canon of the Gods, the Second Brother Deity who split the mountain to save his mother, or the Guan Kou Deity who fought fiercely with the Heaven Defying Great Saint, each myth was extraordinary.

In any of these mythological legends, this was a top-tier combat power.

It was known that Qi Yuan had the perception of a hundred levels of evil deity spirit energy, and even that was insufficient to summon such a great deity.

As a result, by visualizing the Heaven Roaring Dog, it was as if he had received a buy-one-get-one-free deal.

Although it wasn't the true body of the Second Brother Divine Manifestation True Monarch, nor even a projection, merely a remnant shadow formed from the Heaven Roaring Dog's memories, it was still exceptionally terrifying.

"So, should I visualize a buy-one-get-one-free deal next time?" Qi Yuan thought, ultimately suppressing the idea.

Everything was left to fate.

However, this feeling of leveling up while sitting was truly refreshing.

Now, he had reached level 30 as a divine being, and according to the calculations of this realm, he had entered the initial stage of Divine Infancy.

This was much faster than leveling up in the Moon Viewing Continent and the Flowing Wasteland Realm.

"Let's go, it's time for the feast!"

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Qi Yuan waved his hand.

"Qi Qi, let's go to the feast!"

In Qing Shui Village, Qi Qi, who was frowning at the crops, and her maid, Xiao Xue, heard the voice, and their furrowed brows relaxed.

“Forget these worries for now, let's go to the feast with Foster Father!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xue's eyes lit up, as if she could see the delicious food right in front of her, and she couldn't help but drool.

...

"Everyone, turn your grief into appetite, let's eat!"

This time, Qi Yuan's opening statement was simple, and he didn't say too much.

But the wailing women from Shi Family Village cried as if the sky was falling.

Qi Yuan couldn't help but feel sorrow in his heart as he ate.

"Foster Father... you actually visualized such a powerful Divine Inspection Technique!" Qi Qi, sitting beside Qi Yuan, exclaimed in astonishment.

She hadn't witnessed the vertical pupil's might, but after the feast, she understood that Qi Yuan had given a powerful Divine Inspection Technique to the Big Black Dog.

The Big Black Dog sat beside Qi Yuan, its tail wagging frantically, a pig's trotter in its claws, and a proud expression in its eyes.

Zhu Zhuangshi, seeing this, looked dejected.

Village Chief Yu Le also wanted to say something but stopped himself.

Because such a precious Divine Inspection Technique was given to a dog.

"It's a pity that such a powerful technique, capable of creating a true deity, was used so casually." Qi Qi couldn't help but speak up.

Zhu Zhuangshi, who had been silent until now, also interjected, saying with a pitiful expression, "Divine Master, how am I not as good as the Big Black Dog?"

The Big Black Dog immediately glared at Zhu Zhuangshi.

If not for Qi Yuan's presence, it would probably have attacked its former master.

"Because you're not a dog," Qi Yuan replied truthfully.

"I... could also be a dog," Zhu Zhuangshi secretly glanced at the big black dog.

Compared to such a powerful Divine Observation Technique, what's wrong with being a dog? This has the potential to become a True Deity.

Qi Yuan, upon hearing this, smiled and said, "There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

Qi Qi's eyes lit up with delight when she heard this, "Foster Father, have you seen other True Deities?"

"Quite a few," Qi Yuan replied truthfully, adding in his mind, "On TV, in movies, and in novels."

's expression also showed delight upon hearing this.

Her foster father, indeed, was no ordinary mortal.

's eyes lit up with delight when she heard this, "Foster Father, a powerful Divine Observation Technique like this is not easy to visualize. We can't just give it away to... a dog." spoke earnestly.

In her opinion, a Divine Observation Technique of this level would be difficult even for her foster father to visualize.

After all, there were only so many True Deities, and those who had received offerings in the past were even fewer.

Her foster father had seen other Ancient Deities as well.

Therefore, a visualized Divine Observation Technique without uniqueness might not be as powerful.

"No problem, there are plenty. As long as the Evil Deity Spirit Energy is sufficient, there will be an abundance of opportunities."

Qi Yuan was intrigued. If all the divine beings in the sky were visualized, what kind of spectacle would it be?

Wouldn't that be interesting?

Looking at her foster father, Qi Qi didn't try to persuade him further but said, "Foster Father, now that we have four villages, we can't keep hosting banquets after conquering each new village. It's not a long-term strategy."

was speaking the truth.

Currently, they had enough food and drink, but with more people, they couldn't afford to continue like this.

After all, hosting banquets every day would quickly deplete the resources of a single village.

Even if they conquered a new village, what about the food supply? The meat wouldn't be enough.

Qi Yuan nodded, "We need to manage the villages better. As long as we keep the momentum going, there will always be banquets to attend."

Upon hearing this, couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Foster Father, this won't do. We need to establish our own granary."

also understood the implied meaning in Qi Qi's words.

"It's all because the enemies are too poor. Otherwise, we could always host banquets for them!" Qi Yuan sighed.

These new deities were indeed useless. After managing for so many years, they still couldn't become rich.

The remaining wealth was barely enough to host a grand banquet without hesitation.

Everyone present, upon hearing this, felt a twinge of pity for those deceased evil deities.

They had killed them, taken their possessions, used their resources, and even hosted banquets with them.

It was indeed tragic.

Indeed, one shouldn't provoke the Origin Heavenly Venerable, or the consequences would be dire.

also felt speechless and said, "We need to plant more crops and ensure a good harvest."

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan nodded, "Should we also raise some livestock?"

The maid, Little Snow, who was eating pork at the time, eagerly nodded, "Yes, I support raising pigs."

"Leave these matters to you." looked towards the maid, Little Snow.

The task of raising pigs couldn't be left to his goddaughter, could it?

Little Snow was taken aback for a moment, then her eyes lit up, "Okay."

At this moment, Qi Yuan asked again, "Gale Wind Town, are there any more new deities left to slay?"

"Including the one in Gale Wind Town, there are nine more."

"In that case, let's slay one each day from now on!" Qi Yuan issued the command.

They couldn't slay too many in a single day, or the banquets would clash.

...

Gale Wind Town.

Inside the temple.

The Lynx Demon Deity appeared, his expression somber.

"What brings you here?" Ever since his mysterious injury, he had kept a low profile to recover.

"Divine Being, the Five Great Families are preparing to guide that person!" The fat man's eyes lit up with excitement.

The Lynx Demon Deity's eyes showed surprise, "Isn't it supposed to be in a few years?"

"We've confirmed that the Ancient Deity's body is severely injured and unable to awaken.

This is the best time for us to guide the new deity!"

"This is good news." The Lynx Demon Deity hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking.

If a True Deity were to descend, Flying Wasteland City would completely fall under his control.

"However, to guide the new deity, we need the Lynx Demon Deity's assistance!" The fat man's eyes pleaded.

"Oh?"

"To guide this True Deity, we need to create an environment of plague, and for this, we need the Lynx Demon Deity's help."

"Are you saying we should spread a plague in Flying Wasteland City? But, this will require a few days."

Upon hearing this, the fat man's eyes lit up with joy, "Thank you, Divine Being!"

...

Green Water Village.

followed Qi Qi, walking along the narrow path between the fields, looking at the thin crops, his expression complex, "You're right, these crops are a bit..."

In the past few days, Qi Yuan had eliminated two more new deities.

He now had two more Evil Deity Spirit Energies.

One of them was at the Purple Mansion level, surpassing many others.

Now, as their territory expanded, he also felt the strain on their food supply.

This made him sigh, wishing they were in the Mystic Sea Realm, where one could survive without food.

The cultivators here were indeed big eaters.

"Foster Father, do you have a solution?" Qi Qi had always managed the logistics of Qi Yuan's territory, "Currently, our food, even when piled together, can only last for three months."

"It's a pity I don't have a gold nugget," Qi Yuan sighed.
