235: Gods are also within the avenue
“What a rare sight.”
When Zhang Lingxiao arrived in front of the Holy Light Tower,
the entire Holy City was in chaos.
The streets were filled with people scattering and fleeing.
Screams and cries blended together, completely losing all order.
But strangely, there were no guards to be seen in the city.
Instead, Professionals from the Child Family had surrounded the Holy Light Tower, numbering as many as five hundred.
“The Child Family, they must be crazy, daring to directly confront a God.”
Zhang Lingxiao's lips curled into a smile.
He looked at a female Holy Knight standing on the Holy Light Tower platform.
The aura emanating from this female Holy Knight was not only extremely powerful, but it also didn't feel like that of a human.
Below the Holy Light Tower, all objects were covered in a golden light shield.
Zhang Lingxiao was surprised to find that this was an invincible skill of the Holy Light system.
In other words... everything beneath the Holy Light Tower, from a large building to a grain of sand, was made invincible.
Moreover, the duration of this invincible protective shield was very long, clearly not something achievable by human power.
Zhang Lingxiao immediately realized that
the Ancestral Master of Holy Light-type Professionals had descended.
“Your Excellency Goddess, this humble Daoist Zhang Lingxiao greets you.”
Zhang Lingxiao flew closer to the Holy Light Tower and bowed with a smile.
Elebella nodded slightly. She naturally knew that the person before her had come to assist Qin Yang.
However, given the current situation, it seemed that even more Emperor Ranks would be useless.
Mora, the God of Truth, had not descended as a projection, but in his true form.
Before a God, even the strongest in the Mortal world were but grains of sand in the ocean.
Elebella's current thought was how to protect Qin Yang.
As for whether the Holy City survived, she had no time to consider it.
Just then, Zhang Lingxiao spoke, “Thank you, Goddess, for repeatedly assisting Qin Yang. You will surely gain immeasurable Karma in the future.”
Elebella was startled.
Since the Summoning Battlefield, she had indeed helped Qin Yang twice.
One time was by bestowing her own Divine Nature to help him contend against the Laws of Heaven and Earth.
The other time was by blocking an attack from the God of War for Qin Yang.
Qin Yang might have revealed the matter of Divine Nature to others.
But Qin Yang wouldn't know about the second incident, and it happened in the Divine Realm. How did this Mortal before her know?
Thinking of this, Elebella had to take this person named Zhang Lingxiao seriously and asked, “Mortal, how do you know?”
Zhang Lingxiao smiled and said, “Gods are also within the Dao. As long as one is within the Dao, one can be deduced.”
“Not only do I know that you have assisted Qin Yang, I also know why you assisted him.”
Elebella's gaze sharpened, and she asked, “Why?”
Zhang Lingxiao replied, “For self-preservation and progress.”
“It seems you have glimpsed the future.”
Elebella was silent for a moment, then nodded in acknowledgment.
The eight orthodox Gods, and even other Demon Gods, all possessed their own Power Of Faith.
These Powers of Faith were the necessary conditions to sustain their existence.
For example, the desire for slaughter created the God of War; the yearning for beauty created the God of Art.
As the God of Holy Light, Elebella's symbol of faith was justice and benevolence.
Among many races, humans were the ones who believed in Holy Light the most.
This was not to say that humans were inherently kind, but rather that they were sufficiently contradictory.
Almost all humans wished for others to be kind to them and used justice to restrain themselves.
This provided Elebella with a large amount of Power Of Faith and also made her the guardian of the Human Race, deeply binding the two sides.
As long as humans grew stronger,
her power could further increase.
But the Laws of this world happened to restrict humans.
Compared to other races, only humans had no potential bonus.
At the same Rank, the attributes of Human Race Professionals were even weaker than a Goblin's.
With such strength, when the War of Ten Thousand Races began, humans might be the first race to perish.
And if humans perished, Elebella, as a God, would lose at least seventy percent of her strength.
At that time, any Evil God could cause her downfall.
Therefore, Elebella had always been searching for a way for humans to Break through the shackles of Law.
Not long ago, she found it.
It was a Divine Artifact from another world, named the kongtong seal.
This Divine Artifact possessed the ability to strengthen the overall Luck of the Human Race, and its owner was a God from another world, Qin Yang.
Elebella realized that as long as she protected Qin Yang, the fate of humanity would surely change.
As long as humans Broke through the “potential” shackles, they would most likely survive the War of Ten Thousand Races, and she herself would avoid the outcome of vanishing.
Elebella looked at Zhang Lingxiao, a smile appearing on her face.
She hadn't expected that her thoughts, as a God, would be seen through by a human.
For a God, this could be considered a blasphemy and an offense.
But it didn't matter.
Elebella had always been tolerant of humans.
Moreover, now was not the time to pursue this.
In the air, the aura of the Evil God was growing stronger, and it would soon descend.
Elebella used Divine Power to protect the area around the Holy Light Tower,
only wishing to preserve the dignity of Holy Light as much as possible.
As for whether the Holy City was destroyed, it was not as important as Qin Yang's safety.
Thinking of this, Elebella said to Zhang Lingxiao, “You had best leave here. The Evil God that is about to descend has the ability to control Professionals. Someone like you, who possesses a legendary-tier profession, will definitely be his target immediately...”
Just as she was speaking, a thunderous roar came from the sky.
The two looked up, only to see the sky shattering like glass.
Tentacles with eyeballs emerged from the shattered “window.”
The God of Truth had finally descended upon the human world.
Instantly, even Elebella's ears were filled with dense whispers, almost breaking her possession spell.
“It seems it’s too late to retreat,”
Zhang Lingxiao shrugged, smiling helplessly.
Elebella frowned, thinking, why is this Mortal still so carefree at a time like this?
Just as Elebella was about to use her ability to forcibly send him away, she heard Zhang Lingxiao say, “Goddess, you are the Ancestral Master of Holy Light-type professions. You should be able to revive the dead, right?”
“One person only once.”
Elebella nodded, feeling a little amused.
What, you, a Mortal, still want to clash with an Evil God?
He could kill you a hundred times with just one glance... [Retired Emperors: It seems the conditions for extra chapters are a bit too high. Should we reduce them a bit?]
[An extra chapter will be added whenever “Battery” reaches 900.]
[Current: 608/900.]
[It's actually very easy, just 100 Father Emperors watching ads can achieve it.]
