Chapter 347 - What Did You Do?
Li Jun"s face became ugly after seeing this attack. He hurriedly waved his hand as his instinct kicked in. An ocean of blood manifested to surround the group and blocked the attack.
Boom!
The Destiny Realm shook slightly, scaring the mortal. Blood slowly dripped from the corner of Li Jun"s mouth. Although he blocked most of the attack, it was too sudden so he was slightly injured.
He wiped out the bloodstain from his mouth with the back of his hand before raising his head to look at the sky. Fury could be seen in his eyes. He had to admit that his pride was a little affected after being planned by the G.o.ds.
However, he quickly calmed down.
As a person born from a powerful world, it is normal to have some sort of innate superiority over other people born in weaker worlds–especially given his status and standing in his world.
However, his education has thought him to never look down on people–especially enemies. Although the people of the lower worlds are weak and have limitations, that does not mean that their future achievements are set.
That does not mean that they are capable. In the Myriad Emperor World, there have been many Great Emperors who were born in Small Thousand Worlds and slowly climbed their way to the peak, suppressed Heaven Chosens from powerful Emperor Lineages, and proved the Dao.
So, after calming down, Li Jun began to access the situation.
He saw the remaining 20 Supreme G.o.ds coming out of a s.p.a.ce Tear. He glanced at the white hair Destiny G.o.ddess and instantly guessed that the current situation might have something to do with her.
"What did you do?" he asked curiously.
"Probability Manipulation," she replied calmly. "I slightly modified the future to one that is more advantageous to me."
Li Jun immediately understood many things after hearing this. The reason that the devil nature of the people who used the [G.o.d Swallowing Techniqie] suddenly manifested.
The reason he suddenly had an impulse to attack the Destiny G.o.ddess even though waiting longer was to his advantage. All of that was probably because of this divine ability.
"I have to say, that is quite the ingenious method. However, judging by your current state, you must have paid quite the heft price," said Li Jun with a calm smile.
"All of that for a trickle of blood."
The Destiny G.o.ddess sighed inwardly. She did not expect that these people were protected by the Power of Fate, this drastically increases the price she had to pay for this technique.
More importantly, she underestimated the power of these Outsiders. More than 20 Supreme G.o.ds sneak attacked them, and just one of them was enough to block their full blow.
"You have not won this war yet," said the Destiny G.o.ddess. She waved her hand and another s.p.a.ce Tear appeared. This time, a large army came out. They covered the sky making it seem as if it was cloudy weather.
And it was not just her, but the other Supreme G.o.ds did the same too.
After seeing this, Li Jun frowned. He could guess the plan of the Destiny G.o.ddess. Since individual power was not enough to kill them, she wanted to use numbers.
And this plan was feasible. Although Li Jun had the confidence to be victorious in a fight with all 20 of them, it would be very dangerous if he was surrounded by a large army and slowly tired out.
After all, if his origin essence runs out along with his stamina, he will also be helpless. Not to mention the fact that his power was quite limited in this world.
So, without hesitation, he also summoned his army, the Slaughter Legion. Tie Gang followed behind him and did the same. The s.p.a.ce ring on their finger was capable of holding living people, so they carried their legions with them in case needed.
As soon as the two of them summoned their legions, they did not waste time and ordered them to form an array.
Blood-colored light flew from the Slaughter Army and rose into the sky before turning into a vision of a s.h.i.+eld with a few weapons drawn on it. As soon as the vision appeared, the aura surrounding them dramatically increased.
Unlike the Undying Legion whose main advantage is their ability to share vitality to prevent their death, the Slaughter Legion can absorb Slaughter Qi to increase their defense, speed, attack, and overall regenerative ability.
So, the more they fight, the stronger they became.
After Li Jun used a formation, Tie Gang did the same as well. His legion however had a skull on top of its head.
As for the G.o.ds, although they did not have formations, they had Heavenly Abode. All the Void G.o.ds and above used the faith in their abode to boost the strength of their army.
Finally, the two sides clashed.
The G.o.ds" Army was also well-trained and disciplined–especially the legion led by the G.o.ddess of War. While in proper military formation and wearing armor, they could link all their divine energy together to amplify their attacks.
This could be perceived as a form of formation.
As they lined up in the sky with spears on their hands, countless elemental spells came from their weapons. Flames, thunder, wind, and water could be seen ravaging the sky.
The different colors of the elements made the heavens look like a blooming flower–albeit a deadly one.
The Slaughter Legion immediately surrounded themselves with s.h.i.+eld spells to defend before rus.h.i.+ng straight into the enemy line as direct confrontation was in their favor.
Once they reached a certain distance, the G.o.d Army increased their elemental attacks to prevent them from reaching close to them. However, under the command of their leaders, they used another different attack:
[Blood Riot]
The G.o.ds soon found that blood in their bodies was not under their control. Many of them started bleeding from the different orifices of their body; the vitality on them slowly fading.
All of them immediately used their divine energy to calm down their rioting blood. However, the Slaughter Legion took the opportunity to reach their enemy.
Then, a ma.s.sacre began.
Golden blood dropped from the sky. The G.o.ds felt one by one like scattered sand. The sky became gloomy as if mourning for the loss of these beings.
Despite being outcla.s.sed in terms of number by at least 20 times, Li Jun"s army still had the advantage. The reason for this was not only because they were better trained, but also because of the cultivation level of these people.
In the G.o.ds System, Demi-G.o.ds who are equivalent to Divine Altar Realm can fly. Meanwhile, only Supernatural Realm cultivator–which is equivalent of True G.o.ds–can fly.
So, both Li Jun and Tie Gang"s legion are composed of Supernatural Realm and above cultivators. However, the G.o.ds have many Demi-G.o.ds in their fold.
While the Slaughter Legion was decimating its enemy, the same could be said for the Undying Legion if not more.
These guys had no concept of defense and only attack their opponent without any reservation. Then, there is their immortality.
Many G.o.ds have stabbed their opponents" hearts, cut off their limbs, and even their heads. Some had half of their bodies explode, with their blood and internal organs displayed all over the sky.
Then, a few seconds later, they returned to normal.
This brought great fear to the opposing side. After all, no soldier would want to fight an undying army. This was very detrimental to morale.
As such, the Undying Legion slaughtered their opponent as easily as a Death G.o.d taking away the souls of mortals to the afterlife.
Meanwhile, the Life G.o.ddess–who was an expert at life force–could see the reason for this legion"s immortality after observing for a while. So, she understood that there were two ways to kill them.
One, kill the main link of Life-Sharing, which was Tie Gang. However, she did not quickly use this method as she did not know how powerful the opponent was.
Additionally, since she was aware of this defect, the opponent should too prepare in advance.
Another way is to instantly use a powerful attack and destroy more than 90% of the soldier"s body, making it impossible for them to revive. So, she quickly ordered all the legion fighting them to do so.
Unfortunately, Tie Gang was prepared this time and did not play around. The formation that their legion used was a defensive one that would drastically increase their defense.
This way, it would not be easy for their opponents to instantly kill any of the soldiers.
Just like, the battle continued for a few hours. The ground was not inhabitable by normal people as it was full of craters. Magma could be seen on the ground, along with constant lightning strikes and ma.s.sive tornadoes.
Countless bodies on both sides lay on the floor, with their armor drenched in blood and other bodily fluids. Destroyed weapons were scattered on the battlefield, with small s.h.i.+ning light that displayed their once glory.
In the clouds, Li Jun watched all of this with a calm look; by now, he was used to death and slaughter. However, he soon frowned as he noticed something.
These Supreme G.o.ds were too calm even though he still had an overwhelming advantage.
"What are they planning? Given the nature of this world, they should have a trump card, so I should watch out for it. However, the situation has not reached that point yet."
As soon as this thought came to his mind, he saw the Life G.o.ddess begin to take action.. And what she did next may instantly turn around the current situation.
