Chapter 445: Divine Arrival, Terrifying Divine Might!

March 16, 2025, Author: Jiang Shangjing

In a brightly lit basement, the blood pool churned and gradually came to a boil.

As Jiang Ning spoke, Bai Luoyu immediately retreated to the back.

The next moment, the blood pool rose, slowly condensing into a form in mid-air.

"Brother Jiang, be careful! I can sense a strong demonic aura in this blood, it must be highly corrosive!" Bai Luoyu warned from behind.

Jiang Ning nodded slightly without turning his head.

Facing this unfamiliar and eerie method, he dared not underestimate it.

It was clear that this was the blood segment of the deity worshipped by the Bai Shen Jiao, the God of Flesh and Blood.

Soon, the blood gathered and took form in mid-air.

It was a six-armed, three-headed, four-legged monster.

The blood on its body constantly changed, making its features blurry and indistinct.

In an instant, the six-armed, three-headed monster suddenly opened its eyes, its empty gaze like a vortex devouring the blood on its face.

"Ignorant mortal, how dare you kill my followers!!!"

The majestic and powerful voice echoed in the sealed basement, filled with authority.

It was indeed him!

Looking at the monster that had completely condensed from the blood, Jiang Ning's gaze turned solemn.

He had never dared to underestimate the so-called deities.

To him, deities were still full of mysteries.

The unknown and the unfamiliar were the most dangerous.

At the same time, the Blood and Flesh God, who had descended through a medium, instantly focused his attention on Jiang Ning.

He sensed a similar aura on Jiang Ning's body.

Was he also an existence that held authority?

He was a bit puzzled.

Because he still couldn't truly descend into the mortal realm.

Yet, Jiang Ning before him was clearly walking among mortals.

Wait!

After sensing Jiang Ning's aura again, his expression changed, and anger erupted like a volcanic eruption.

He felt a similar scent of authority on Jiang Ning.

Instantly, he understood that this was a conflict of authority, a battle for divine status.

The man before him had stolen the authority that should have belonged to him.

Due to the identical authority, they would become mortal enemies, fighting to the death.

If he lost, it would be the end of everything.

If he won, he could seize fragments of the other's authority, allowing him to gather his authority earlier and return to his divine status.

For a being like him, who had attained divinity in ancient times, as long as this world didn't descend into annihilation, he was equivalent to being immortal.

No matter how many times he died or how long he slept, as long as the authority existed, there would always be a day when he could gather it again and return to his divine position.

But now, the authority had been divided.

This meant he had lost the chance to gather his authority and return to his divine status.

It was also equivalent to stripping him of his immortal nature.

These thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.

His anger erupted like a volcanic eruption, and his rage rose like a blazing fire.

"You—shall—die!"

With each word, the divine might rolled like thunder, transforming into sound waves that spread in all directions.

The blood pool exploded, and the ground cracked.

In the blink of an eye, the once brightly lit basement was plunged into darkness again.

In the flash of lightning, Bai Luoyu felt the terrifying divine might from the front.

His heart trembled with horror, and then sank into deep despair.

The mere pressure of the might made him feel as insignificant as an insect.

At that moment, he suddenly saw the entrance to the passage ahead.

A golden light appeared.

The golden light dispelled the darkness and blocked the sound waves that were like substantial attacks.

"It's Brother Jiang!!!"

Looking at the figure shrouded in light standing before him, Bai Luoyu's heart shook.

Goldenvolution Invencible!

The perfect level of Goldenvolution Invencible!

Bai Luoyu instantly understood as he looked at Jiang Ning's back.

Previously, he had also heard from Zhao Yu Long that the Buddhist disciple Jin Chan from the Golden Temple had passed on the perfect method of Goldenvolution Invencible to Jiang Ning.

"But how much time has passed since then?"

A thought flashed through his mind.

Ahead, Jiang Ning circulated his blood energy, fully activating the Goldenvolution Invencible.

The two layers of golden light blocked the terrifying sound waves and the blood that rushed towards him.

Looking at the furious Blood and Flesh God above the blood pool, Jiang Ning's gaze also turned solemn.

From the sudden arrival of the Blood and Flesh God in the blood pool, he also sensed that familiar aura.

He also understood why this suddenly descended Blood and Flesh God was so enraged.

Conflict of authority.

This was a divine battle.

It would only end with death.

His eyes flickered a few times, and he made a decision.

Since they were already enemies, he had to investigate this so-called deity.

Without any knowledge or understanding, he would be at a great disadvantage.

After making his decision, Jiang Ning no longer hesitated or wavered.

He brought his right index and middle fingers together and placed them on his forehead.

His fingers gently swept downward on his forehead.

In an instant, a vertical white mark appeared on his brow.

Within the mark, dazzling light radiated, like wisps of smoke and clouds.

It was as if a door was about to open at any moment.

"That's it!!!"

Seeing the figure shrouded in golden light, the Blood and Flesh God trembled.

A distant memory flashed through his mind.

It was a figure that towered high above the nine heavens.

That figure, with a divine eye on its forehead, represented the Heavenly Dao and wielded the power of heavenly punishment. It possessed the ability to destroy any divine being.

During that era, there were many titles for this figure who resided high above the nine heavens.

Within his circle, they referred to this figure as the Divine Lord.

"No! No!! No!!!"

At this moment, the God of Flesh and Blood seemed to suddenly lose his sanity again, plunging into madness.

He roared repeatedly.

The blood in the blood pool churned and splashed everywhere.

The terrifying divine might, like a tangible force, spread out once more.

The dimly lit underground chamber began to shake, and the surrounding pillars started to crumble. Debris and dirt rained down from above.

Jiang Ning opened his divine eye.

In an instant, he saw through the God of Flesh and Blood's body, noticing that at the center of the three-headed, six-armed figure formed by congealed filthy blood, there was a stone statue the size of a palm, quietly floating.

"This should be the medium and core of the God of Flesh and Blood's descent!"

He silently spoke to himself.

Then, he once again exerted his full strength to activate his divine eye.

In a flash, the smoke-like, misty light that emanated from the vertical line on his forehead became even more intense, as if it were a tangible entity.

And at this moment, Jiang Ning felt his vision pierce through the stone statue's exterior.

Then, as if following an invisible medium, he saw an unknown place.

It was a world of death and nothingness.

In that world, there was only boundless darkness and a void above and below.

Within the darkness, a six-armed divine statue sat on a lotus platform.

At this moment,

He suddenly lifted his head and looked up at the sky.

On the four hideous heads, endless fear appeared simultaneously.

In his line of sight,

Above him, in the void,

A single eye suddenly appeared.

An eye that constantly emanated white light.

He's here!

He's really here!!!

The God of Flesh and Blood's heart was filled with immense fear.

Then, he suddenly realized.

The appearance of this eye was because of his incarnation, which had descended through a medium.

The next moment,

The six-armed, four-headed incarnation floating above the sea of blood suddenly disintegrated.

The suspended blood, having lost its support, began to fall into the blood pool below.

And at that moment,

Jiang Ning also found his vision being pulled out of the alternate dimension he had just witnessed.

Without time to think further, his gaze was drawn to the stone statue within the filthy blood.

Taking a step forward,

He crossed through layers of space and instantly appeared above the blood pool.

With an outstretched hand,

Protected by the golden light surrounding his body, he effortlessly broke through the filthy blood's confinement.

Sizzle—

The golden light, tainted by the filthy blood, emitted an unusual sound while slightly trembling.

"This filthy blood has such strong corrosiveness!"

Jiang Ning was secretly startled.

His five fingers firmly grasped the palm-sized stone statue.

[Detected 17 points of divine essence and a fragment of authority. Absorb?]



Seeing the prompt before his eyes,

Jiang Ning's expression lit up.

The long-awaited harvest prompt appeared before him once again.

Yes!

The thought flashed through his mind.

In an instant,

He noticed changes on the panel.

[Divine Essence]: 20 points (3→20)



[Authority]: Blood Regeneration (Slightly Deficient 2.5%) (0.42%→2.5%)



Seeing the changes on the panel, he slightly nodded.

Divine essence increased by thirty-seven points.

The progress of blood regeneration also increased by over two percentage points.

The improvement was extremely noticeable.

Especially for the authority of blood regeneration,

After reaching such a level of completeness, even a two percent increase, let alone a one percent increment, became incredibly challenging.

He had conducted experiments before.

When blood regeneration reached the level of authority he currently possessed,

One point of divine essence could only increase the progress by 0.3 percent.

In other words, ten points of divine essence would only result in a three percent increase.

This 2.8 percent increase was equivalent to the harvest of eight points of divine essence.

"There might be similar statues in other places!"

Jiang Ning looked at the statue in his hand, stained with filthy blood, and silently spoke to himself.

Then,

His arm trembled,

And the filthy blood splattered, leaving no trace on the statue.

His figure flashed, and he returned to the shore.

At this moment,

The shaking underground chamber finally regained its tranquility.

He scanned his surroundings, and his divine perception expanded as he silently exerted his strength.

Once again, he supported the crumbling underground chamber.

The scattered torches were reinserted into the walls, and flames condensed in the void, reigniting the extinguished torches.

In the passage,

Bai Luoyu looked at the now-calm underground chamber and couldn't help but feel dazed.

The overwhelming divine might from before had left him utterly hopeless.

Before he could even understand the situation, everything had returned to peace.

If it weren't for the lit torches illuminating the chaotic underground chamber,

Bai Luoyu would have doubted whether he had just experienced an illusion.

"Brother Jiang, what just happened?"

Bai Luoyu emerged from the passage and reappeared in the underground chamber.

His gaze swept across the room, and he saw traces of corrosion from the filthy blood everywhere.

The amount of filthy blood in the blood pool had also noticeably decreased.

"I don't know!" Jiang Ning shook his head.

Then, he continued, "Just now, the deity worshipped by the Bai Shen Jiao suddenly descended through a medium and unleashed its divine might, only to suddenly disintegrate and collapse, which is quite baffling!"

At this moment, Jiang Ning also felt perplexed.

Initially, he had expected a grand battle.

The sudden arrival of the God of Flesh and Blood was awe-inspiring.

Even he, at that moment, didn't have absolute confidence in defeating that deity.

The unexpected disintegration and collapse of the God of Flesh and Blood caught him off guard, leaving him with doubts in his heart.

"I have a guess!" Bai Luoyu spoke up.

Seeing Jiang Ning's gaze, he continued, "Normally, those departed deities are not tolerated by heaven and earth, unable to be accommodated!"

"The deity worshipped by the Bai Shen Jiao just descended, perhaps suppressed by heaven and earth, leading to its disintegration and collapse."

Jiang Ning nodded thoughtfully.

"White brother, you have a point."

His mind recalled the previous conversation with the Black Lotus Old Mother.

From that dialogue, it was evident that even with the capabilities of the Black Lotus Old Mother, she couldn't descend upon the mortal realm.

"It should be this reason!"

Jiang Ning nodded slightly, expressing his agreement.

At the same time, the scene he had just glimpsed into flashed in his mind.

In a surreal alternate space, he had caught a glimpse of the God of Flesh and Blood.

Their eyes met.

He saw the God of Flesh and Blood's body exuding an intense fear.

Then, as the deity's body disintegrated, he couldn't continue to observe.

Perhaps, this was related! Jiang Ning silently spoke to himself.

By his side, Bai Luoyu, hearing the agreement, couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

"Brother Jiang, it seems we are both blessed with great fortune!"

"If that deity had truly descended here, our prime years would have been sacrificed."

Jiang Ning smiled ambiguously.

Bai Luoyu couldn't help but glance at Jiang Ning.

After the initial shock, he couldn't help but think of Jiang Ning's performance moments ago, leaving him with indescribable emotions.

If not for Jiang Ning's obstruction, he knew that in an instant, he would have perished under the deity's might.

Especially those splattering drops of filthy blood.

His gaze fell on the ground around them.

The ground was already corroded by the filthy blood, leaving it pitted and uneven.

Then, his attention was drawn back to Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning had reached the edge of the blood pool.

"Brother Jiang, what's wrong?" Bai Luoyu asked.

Jiang Ning replied, "Beneath the blood pool, there's a sea of white bones."

Hearing this, Bai Luoyu also took a few steps closer to the blood pool.

But all he could see was the blood pool, now calm again, making it impossible to discern the white bones below.

Just as he was about to speak.

Jiang Ning's voice sounded in his ear again.

"White brother, let's retreat for now!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Luoyu's eyes showed confusion, but he followed Jiang Ning's instructions and retreated backward.

Suddenly, a roar echoed.

A tiger's roar reverberated, and Bai Luoyu saw a fire-bathed tiger materialize above the blood pool, then pounce towards it.

"This is..."

Bai Luoyu's face was filled with astonishment.

Then, he noticed the blood mist beginning to evaporate.

He instantly understood.

"Brother Jiang is going to dry up this blood pool?!"

At the same time, Jiang Ning's attention turned to his chest.

The human body has 206 bones.

But he had 207 bones.

The extra bone was the Dao Bone.

The Dao Bone born from the breaking of the Pi Chai Dao Fa's limits.

This Dao Bone, shaped like a knife, nurtured a precious technique.

It had once been his trump card.

For Xiao Qiu Shui.

He had never had the chance to use it.

Now, he was ready to use this Dao Bone again, unleashing its power.

The next moment, he vigorously stimulated the Dao Bone in his chest.

A terrifying Dao Intent burst forth, pointing straight to the Nine Heavens.

The Dao Intent gushed out, and the thick soil above his head was split apart like tofu.

In an instant, the surging Dao Intent broke through the thick soil layer, allowing bright light to pour into the underground chamber, providing more illumination.

Meanwhile, the blood mist evaporated by the Fire Tiger followed the gap pierced by the Dao Intent and soared into the sky.

Bai Luoyu kept retreating.

He felt like every flowing current in the underground chamber had transformed into sharp Dao Intent.

He reached out and touched his face.

His heart trembled as he saw bloodstains on his fingers.

Then, he noticed a few strands of hair falling from his forehead, his heart trembling even more.

He continued to retreat.

Only when he reached the edge did he feel safe again.

But two new bloodstains appeared on his face, and some strands of hair lay scattered on the ground.

"Brother Jiang's strength, just how high has it reached?!"

Watching Jiang Ning's back, Bai Luoyu was left in a daze.

At this moment, Jiang Ning continued to concentrate, using the Fire Tiger to dry up the blood in the pool.

The evaporating blood mist rose through the gap above, straight into the vast sky.
