Chapter 626: Annihilate Your Lineage |
Everyone was rendered speechless.
Ye Guan wanted to fight the two Gods at the same time?
Everyone would have deemed him arrogant, ignorant of his limits, and fearless.
However, he had just defeated Mo'e.
The four major clans' members blanked out. To them, such a scenario should have been utterly inconceivable, yet it had just happened right before their eyes.
He killed a God! Even though that was just Mo'e's avatar, he was still a god!
The faith of the four major clans' members wavered.
The two Gods looked at Ye Guan, shock evident on their faces. They did not expect Ye Guan to have three distinct bloodline powers. Of course, had Mo'e not underestimated his opponent and utilized his divine senses from the start, he could have discovered Ye Guan's unique bloodlines.
However, Ye Guan was crafty. He revealed his hand only at the most crucial moment.
The male God took a step forward. As he did, a black vortex surged beneath his feet.
Mu Yuan spoke in Ye Guan's mind again. "That's Zhao Wu."
Ye Guan chuckled softly. "That's a surprisingly normal name."
"Back in the era of the First God, they started as mere mortals. Later, by following the Supreme God, they acquired abilities and gradually shed their humanity. They then deemed themselves gods and gradually lost sight of their Dao."
Ye Guan slowly closed his eyes. He could still remember Plain Skirt Destiny's words. One had to stay true to their Dao or they would never become invincible.
It sounded pretty simple, but it had to be immensely challenging. He partly agreed with Ah Nan's sentiments from earlier. As one gained more experience, certain things inevitably lost their significance.
One's character and heart were likely to change. After all, people continued to evolve. Moreover, it was exceptionally challenging to maintain one's initial Dao.
Ye Guan shook his head and smiled, no longer dwelling on the matter.Dwelling on it now serves no purpose, so I'll just think about it later. It's best I focus on the present and excel in the moment.
Clearing his mind, Ye Guan looked at Zhao Wu. Suddenly, Zhao Wu vanished. A black vortex then materialized before Ye Guan, and a menacing force hurtled toward him.
Ye Guan narrowed his eyes and extended his arm. Countless strands of Invincible Sword Intent surged forth from within him and turned into streams of swordlight to oppose the black vortex.
For a brief moment, the two forces remained deadlocked. The black vortex couldn't consume Ye Guan's Sword Intent, but Ye Guan's Sword Intent couldn't shatter it either.
Just as Ye Guan was about to unleash his bloodline power, the female God materialized behind him and swiftly tried to punch the back of his head.
Instead of worrying about her, Ye Guan focused on channeling his Invincible Sword Intent to fend off the looming black vortex. The spectators could only stand frozen in disbelief.
However, just before the female God's attack could hit, Ye An appeared behind Ye Guan with her spear in hand. Their collision resulted in a resounding impact.
The female God was forced to fall back.
Ye An brandished her spear as she cast a disdainful glance at the female God. "Shameless!"
The female God's eyes narrowed at her
"Say that again," she said, her voice laced with deadly intent.
Undeterred, Ye An repeated, "Shameless!"
“That foul mouth of yours will lead you to your grave.”
Aiming her fury at Ye An, the female God lunged forward and threw another powerful punch.
Ye An stored her spear away. Rather than relying on it, she met her blow with her bare fist.
The two then exchanged a flurry of blows. Each of the female God's strikes carried immense destructive force, yet Ye An proved to be a match for her, holding her ground with unwavering resolve.
Ye An had grown immensely in First God Paradise as well. After all, she and Ye Guan had been maintaining a healthy competition between them.
Meanwhile, Ye Guan activated his bloodline power, causing the Sword Intent surrounding him to take on a crimson hue.
Harnessing the combined might of his three bloodlines, Ye Guan's Sword Intent gradually tore through the black vortex.
Seizing the opportunity, Ye Guan stepped forward and thrust his sword. The Space Overlap technique, infused with the power of all three bloodlines, shattered the black vortex into oblivion.
Kaboom!
With his fist wreathed in a swirling black vortex, Zhao Wu lunged toward Ye Guan.
"Qianqian," Ye Guan called.
Boom!
A terrifying force burst from within Ye Guan, allowing his decisive strike to pierce through Zhao Wu's defenses.
Zhao Wu’s eyes narrowed. “You…”
Before Zhao Wu could utter another word, Ye Guan landed another powerful attack, effectively killing Zhao Wu's avatar.
Shwing!
Ye Guan had wasted no time. After all, it would be dangerous if these avatars managed to contact their real bodies.
Although he had grown immensely stronger and had killed two Gods, they were mere avatars, not their true forms. Considering his current power, confronting an actual God would be a daunting challenge.
Hence, he had to be cautious. While his battle with the Gods was inevitable, delaying it would be better for him. He needed more time to become stronger.
After killing Zhao Wu, Ye Guan swiftly charged toward the female God in the form of a streak of sword light.
The female God, engaged in combat with Ye An, suddenly sensed that something was amiss. She swiftly turned around and summoned a barrage of divine light. However, before she could react, a sword had come slicing down.
Bam!
The loud impact sent the female God flying backward. Seizing the moment, Ye An grabbed her arm and delivered a powerful knee to her abdomen.
Bam!
As the female God began to turn illusionary, a sword pierced her forehead, completely destroying her avatar.
The members of the four major clans were momentarily stunned. When they finally came to their senses, they turned and fled, having lost all desire to fight. If even Gods could be slain by those mortals, what chance did they have?
However, Ye Guan and Ye An had no intention of letting them escape. The siblings pursued them relentlessly. Eventually, the air was filled with the agonizing screams of their victims.
With their faith shattered by the deaths of the three Gods, the members of the four major clans lost all courage to resist. They fled in a frenzy, their will to fight extinguished.
Mo Tiandu and the two others realized that the avatars of the Gods were not as strong as they had thought. Strictly speaking, they were only slightly stronger than Ancient Sovereigns. The three wanted to continue the fight. However, their clan members refused to obey their orders.
The death of the Gods had shattered the faith of many. For generations, their confidence stemmed from the fact that they were Descendants of the Gods. Now, having seen the Gods they had always thought invincible fall into the hands of Ye Guan and Ye An, their faith lay in ruins.
Ye Guan and Ye An relentlessly pursued their prey. They mainly focused on the Mo Clan, the instigator of this incident. They chased them all the way back to their base, swiftly eliminating anyone they could get their hands on.
As soon as the Mo Clan reached their base, Mo Tiandu ordered the clan's protective array to be activated. Beams of faint golden light shot up from within the Mo Clan and sped toward Ye Guan and Ye An.
Ye Guan stepped forward and extended his arm in front of him, unleashing countless Invincible Sword Intents. The Sword Intents tore the sky apart and shredded the golden pillars of light. They rained down on the Mo Clan, whose screams of terror filled the air.
At that moment, Mo Tiandu flew to a spot not far from Ye Guan and sternly gazed at him. "Ye Guan, are you truly prepared to go this far?"
Ye Guan wordlessly raised his sword and struck Mo Tiandu with a powerful blow.
Boom!
Mo Tiandu was sent flying hundreds of meters away.
Ye Guan regarded Mo Tiandu coldly. "You're a clan leader, are you not? How can you speak so immaturely?"
Mo Tiandu's expression darkened. "You only slayed the avatar of our God, a mere fraction of his true power. If you push this any further, you..."
Ye Guan shook his head and prepared to strike again. He had no interest in listening to meaningless talk.
If I don't kill them all now, they will show no mercy later if the tables are ever turned.
Seeing Ye Guan about to strike once more, Mo Tiandu's expression dramatically changed. "Ye Guan, think of your people.”
“What do you mean?”
“Not long ago, Clan Leader Chen Yu led a group of powerful individuals to the Time River. If everything has gone according to plan, then your people are already in his hands. If you kill more of us, Chen Yu will wipe out your entire clan and turn you into an orphan."
Ye Guan and Ye An's expressions shifted.
