Chapter 505: Holding the Light, My Divine Arrival!
Chapter 505: Holding the Light, My Divine Arrival!
The massive figure of the Winged Serpent hovered in the air, riding the clouds and mist. Its bloody, foul-smelling tongue flicked in and out, an eerie sight that chilled souls.
Zhan Lei and Tu Si Shu were terrified beyond measure.
"Damn it! Am I going to die here today?" Tu Si Shu spat out a mouthful of aged phlegm.
The might of an Earth Rank Apex Armament Master was overwhelming; even combined, they were no match for the Winged Serpent.
The way Zhan Lei had tormented the Black Crow earlier was exactly how the Winged Serpent would torment them both.
"Winged Serpent, before I die, I want to know why you're here?" Tu Si Shu shouted.
The arrival of the Winged Serpent piqued his curiosity. A being of such caliber, infiltrating Ning Kingdom, carried immense risk, and it might face a siege from Earth Rank Armament Masters.
The item the Black Crow had given to the Winged Serpent also intrigued Tu Si Shu. He suspected a conspiracy, perhaps targeting the Ning Kingdom.
His concerns deepened.
"Are you stalling for time?" The Winged Serpent was in no mood for chatter. "In the Central Plains of Luocha Kingdom, there's an old saying: 'The villain dies by talking too much.'"
The Winged Serpent Elder was well aware that its actions, in the eyes of those sanctimonious hypocrites, were villainous.
As its words fell, its body suddenly dove, creating a piercing wind that stung their eyes.
Zhan Lei's steel orb smashed into the air.
Unfortunately, she was nearly two small realms away from the Winged Serpent Elder's level.
Clang!
The iron ball rang out, swinging back fiercely, nearly taking Zhan Lei with it.
One exchange, and the outcome was decided.
The two were not even in the same league!
The Winged Serpent Elder, if placed in the Ning Kingdom, would easily rank within the top thirty on the Earthly Ranking, worthy of the title 'Earthly Ranking Master.'
Zhan Lei swallowed blood, her face turning pale.
Tu Si Shu's heart raced with anxiety at the sight, but he had no solution.
"Tu, if you hadn't plotted against me, perhaps only one person would've died today. Now... two more will join." Black Crow Elder spoke with a chilling tone.
Tu San Gongzi was in a panic, his heart filled with fear.
An Earth Rank Apex Armament Master, a being of such caliber, was a rarity in the Tu Family, and moreover... that person had been in prolonged seclusion, unaware of the current situation.
"I..." Tu San Gongzi clenched his teeth, feeling only darkness ahead.
At this moment, perhaps only the person from the Shen family could save him.
But that person, like the family's ancestor, had been in deep seclusion, never to emerge.
Suddenly, he recalled something, and with nothing to lose, a lightsaber appeared in his hand.
Light and shadows converged, crystal clear, flashing with a cold glow.
"An interesting little toy," Black Crow Elder glanced at it and offered his evaluation, then mocked, "I didn't expect a Mystic Rank Armament Master to dare wield a sword in resistance?"
Tu San Gongzi was now in a panic, remembering Qi Yuan's words.
His heart raced with anxiety.
"Senior, please don't deceive me, I beg you!"
"I'll walk proudly across the Ning Kingdom!"
"Don't waste that ten thousand taels of silver!"
He muttered to himself.
But ten thousand taels of silver couldn't buy the intervention of an Earth Rank Apex Armament Master.
Thinking of this, he clenched his teeth and shouted.
"Summon! God!"
The special ability activated by spending ten thousand taels of silver must be real!
The Winged Serpent couldn't help but look sideways: "An ant... using its ultimate move?"
His words were dripping with sarcasm.
Black Crow Elder also couldn't help but mock.
Only Tu Si Shu's face was filled with praise: "As expected of the Tu family's bloodline! Stay strong, don't lose face! Use the sword to cut them down and show that the men of the Tu family aren't weak!"
Tu Si Shu's words almost drove Tu San Gongzi to draw his sword and charge, only to be whipped away by a snake tail.
At that moment, Tu San Gongzi stared at the lightsaber, his heart filled with anticipation.
Unfortunately, the light and shadows remained calm, with no special occurrences.
Could it be... that he had been deceived?
But then he thought, ten thousand taels of silver, summoning a god's avatar, and doing it three times... who would believe such a thing?
Yet, just then, a sudden movement caught his attention. High above in the sky, a cloud parted, and a beam of light descended.
In front of Tu San Gongzi, a glowing orb appeared, radiating brilliance.
An aura of solemnity, sanctity, and purity permeated the air.
The orb wasn't large, about the size of a person.
Its entire body glowed, obscuring its form, but within the light, a sacred aura emanated.
The Winged Serpent Elder, Black Crow Elder, and everyone else's gaze involuntarily fixed on that orb of light and shadow.
"What is this?" The Winged Serpent was on guard.
"This light descends from the heavens..." Black Crow hesitated.
Just then, a solemn voice abruptly sounded.
"In a world without light, behold the divine arrival!"
Boom! The light shattered! A towering figure emerged from the light, striding with unwavering steps, a shooting star.
Clad in radiant armor, the figure exuded brilliance, like a divine being descending upon the mortal realm.
Dragon and phoenix patterns intertwined, and totems adorned its body.
The light flickered with intensity, alternating between fierce and gentle, embodying dominance and warmth.
"It's true... it's true..." Tu San Gongzi muttered, his eyes burning with fervor.
"What is this?
The Black Crow was filled with extreme dread.
"Playing tricks!" The Winged Snake sneered coldly, as he could not see through the sudden appearance of the tall figure.
Tu Si Shu and Zhan Lei looked at Tu San Gongzi with puzzled expressions.
Then, Tu San Gongzi stood up and roared at the figure of light, "Divine Arrival, smite the two evil spirits!"
As his voice fell, the figure of light turned its gaze to the Winged Snake and the Black Crow.
In that gaze, the Winged Snake saw many things: holiness, absolute coldness, and righteous order.
"You... what exactly are you?" The Winged Snake felt a chill run down his spine.
After all, the Ink Mountain Country was a remote place where even a Heaven Rank Armament Master was extremely rare. The scene before him was beyond his comprehension.
However, combining this with Tu San Gongzi's words, he had a terrifying guess.
"Divine Incarnation, are you a manifestation of a deity?" The thought sent a chill down his spine.
Deities existed only in legends.
According to the legends of the Luo Chasha Country, above the Heaven Rank Armament Masters, there was another existence known as a deity!
But deities were far removed from their world.
How could this be a manifestation of a deity?
But at this moment, he had already decided to retreat.
The stakes were too high.
What if this really was a manifestation of a deity?
He glanced at the Black Crow, who met his eyes.
The two old monsters had the same thought.
"Run!"
Without any hesitation, they both fled madly toward the Kunling Ferry.
The Kunling Ferry was difficult to enter, even for an Earth Rank Apex Armament Master.
But this did not apply to the people of Thorn Blood.
Their plan was simple: first enter the Kunling Ferry to hide, then escape.
The divine figure stood quietly, making no sound.
He did not chase, merely watching as if allowing the two to escape.
Seeing this, Tu San Gongzi grew doubtful.
"Is this a defective one? Summoning a phantom to scare them away?"
This thought flashed through his mind.
But then he thought, even if it was fake, it was still quite intimidating. If it could scare away the Black Crow Elder and the Winged Snake Elder, it was worth it.
At this moment, Tu Si Shu walked over, looking amazed, "This thing..."
However, just then, a sudden change occurred.
"As I descend, like a deity!"
The figure of light emitted a solemn voice.
It was as if millions of believers were calling out.
The figure of the incarnation grew taller and taller.
Three meters, six meters, twenty feet, thirty feet...
Finally, it reached a towering height of ten zhang (over 30 meters), holding a holy and radiant lightsaber.
Tall, majestic, and pure.
This sword represented justice, order, and law.
At this moment, a vast and solemn voice echoed.
"Holding the light, banish the darkness!"
"If there is injustice, summon my divine presence!"
This voice did not come from the phantom but seemed to emanate from the lightsaber itself.
The towering figure of light moved, holding the lightsaber and swinging it down with a powerful strike!
There was no flashy display, no technique, only a powerful slash!
But then... boom!
A huge beam of light burst forth from the Kunling Ferry.
The earth shook!
It was as if dragons and snakes were rising from the land!
The earth emitted a killing aura, the sky turned upside down; the divine aura caused all things to wither!
In the Kunling Ferry, water vapor evaporated, water plants snapped, and the miasma and toxins were shredded as if by a blade.
The powerful energy of the lightsaber swept through the Kunling Ferry, slicing through the mud and mire.
The faces of the Winged Snake and the Black Crow Elder twisted in terror.
The intense sword beam instantly engulfed them.
"Ah... no!"
"I can't believe it actually worked!" Tu San Gongzi exclaimed, his eyes wide with astonishment.
"One hundred and fifty thousand taels?" Tu Si Shu stared at Tu San Gongzi in disbelief, "Only someone like you would believe such a thing. If it were me, I'd slice that stall owner to death!"
Despite his words, his eyes betrayed his awe.
"One hundred and fifty thousand taels to summon such a terrifying being... What a bargain!" Tu Si Shu exclaimed, his eyes shining with excitement, "Is that stall owner still at the Ghost Market? Does he have any other artifacts?"
"There are two more lightsabers, but at the time... I didn't have the money to buy them..." Tu San Gongzi replied nervously.
"You good-for-nothing!" Tu Si Shu scolded, but his eyes gleamed with desire.
Such a terrifying artifact, not to mention one hundred and fifty thousand taels, even if it were ten million taels, it would still be worth it.
After all, this was an Earth Rank Armament Master, and a single swing of his sword could shatter everything.
The power of that sword strike was likely on par with the legends of the Heaven Rank Armament Masters.
"Ah... I think my lightsaber is damaged... I can't use it for now." Tu San Gongzi said anxiously.
"Summoning such a terrifying incarnation requires an enormous amount of energy. It might need some nurturing before it can be used again!" Zhan Lei shared her thoughts.
Tu San Gongzi heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this, "I wonder how long it will take to nurture it."
"Even if it takes a hundred years, it's worth it. You can become the clan's treasure even in death!" Tu Si Shu mumbled, "Who is that stall owner? What kind of divine being are they?"
As he spoke, he looked towards the Kunling Ferry in the distance.
"What a pity. That strike killed the Winged Snake and the Black Crow, but we still can't enter the Kunling Ferry. What is it about the Black Crow and the Winged Snake that makes them so special?"
"We should return and report this, and then... go to the Ghost Market!" Tu Si Shu urged impatiently.
He couldn't wait to get to the Ghost Market and buy the remaining two lightsabers.
"Let's go!"
The three figures didn't hesitate and disappeared.
Meanwhile, Qi Yuan's face turned pale.
"I've become stronger, but also more fragile."
His face was as white as paper.
His aura was weak, as if a gentle breeze could blow him over.
Just then, Tu San Gongzi had used Summon God.
Qi Yuan unleashed the As I, God Arrives skill.
The divine incarnation descended, and with a single strike, it looked incredibly powerful.
However, for Qi Yuan, the burden was immense.
The current him had exhausted his entire energy, leaving him depleted.
That strike had slain two Earth Rank Armament Masters and hundreds of demonic spirits, also granting Qi Yuan a vast amount of experience.
Now, he had reached the 96th level, jumping nearly 40 levels.
In other words, he had become an Earth Rank Beginner Armament Master.
Indeed, without any Mystic Rank experience, he had directly skipped to the Earth Rank, an astonishing feat.
However, that strike had also emptied him out.
"As expected, hard work is nothing compared to innate talent."
Qi Yuan sighed.
He had worked so hard, struggling to level up, reaching the 90th level, it meant spending a lot of effort.
Unfortunately, facing a 30% Performance Score awakened As I, God Arrives, a single strike was enough to kill him.
As I, God Arrives, a sword of divine rank, was crafted by the Shengnu, making it a sacred artifact.
It was top-tier from the moment of its creation.
"Wielding the light, banish the darkness.
In the face of injustice, summon me, God Arrives!"
"Is this the essence of As I, God Arrives?"
Qi Yuan contemplated.
To impersonate As I, God Arrives, one must understand its background.
That slogan wasn't spoken by Qi Yuan but was an inner call of As I, God Arrives.
In Qi Yuan's opinion, this was the very purpose of As I, God Arrives' existence.
"Sigh, cultivation pales in comparison to impersonation. If my Performance Score increases a little more, I can directly summon myself and slay Heaven Rank Armament Masters with a single strike!"
"Impersonation only requires impersonation, but cultivation considers many factors, and you still have to kill demonic spirits."
"But I'm an adult, I want it all!"
"Old man, carry me to the Kunling Ferry. I want to go inside and touch the corpses!"
Qi Yuan said to Chen Kangbao beside him.
Currently, he was so weak that even walking was a struggle.
"Young Master... This body of mine..." Chen Kangbao struggled.
"It's fine, I'll bless you!" Qi Yuan said nonchalantly.
Upon hearing this, Chen Kangbao's face lit up with joy, "Young Master, I'm filled with motivation!"
He then carried Qi Yuan and hurried towards the Kunling Ferry.
His legs moved like the wind, showing no signs of his seventy or eighty years of age.
"I didn't expect that my first mount in this game world would be an old man. What a pity, what a pity."
Qi Yuan felt a bit disappointed.
For some reason, he really wanted to ride that frosty lady.
That thought seemed to be both innate and a desire of the heart.
"Could it be that I'm an LSP?"
Qi Yuan couldn't help but wonder.
He was a lewd person, he admitted it, but LSPs didn't acknowledge it, and he was still young!
