248: War between Gods and Men

As Ye Kong's Demon-Sealing Soul-Devouring Slash descended, another masked Venerable's head flew off.

The remaining Venerable turned to flee, but Ye Kong appeared behind him in an instant.

"Where do you think you're going?"

Ye Kong thrust his sword, a single strike to the throat, piercing the Venerable's neck.

The Venerable couldn't even let out a scream, his eyes rolled back, and he died on the spot.

Ye Kong pulled out his sword and looked around. Although the Rebellion Suppression Army was outnumbered, they were elite soldiers and brave generals. Facing the enemy's encirclement, their formation not only remained unbroken but even showed signs of pushing back.

Of course, things would never end so easily.

A heaven-shaking aura erupted from afar, and a powerful beam of light shot towards Ye Kong again!

The aura of a deity!

Ye Kong immediately swung his sword to block, holding it in front of him, releasing his Killing Intent.

The intense light cut through the sky, almost knocking Ye Kong out of the air.

Ye Kong used his blood blade to cut through the smoke from the explosion and looked in the direction the beam of light had come from.

In the distance, a Human Race deity was floating in the air, his hands clasped behind his back, looking at ease.

Ye Kong pointed his sword at the Human Race deity in the distance and said, "I am General Who Suppresses Rebellion Ye Kong. Today, I am leading my army back to the Imperial Capital. Since you are a Human Race deity, why do you stand in our way?"

The deity did not speak. He raised his hand, and another powerful beam of light shot out.

Ye Kong immediately dodged, avoiding the terrifying light.

The light shot straight backward, hitting the desert several hundred miles away, raising a huge mushroom cloud.

"Since you won't speak, I will consider you to be colluding with foreign races!"

At the same time, Ye Kong transmitted a message with his Divine Sense to Wen Gan and Liu Che, ordering them to immediately lead their troops to break through to the rear. Once a battle between deities began, it was very likely to affect others.

Ye Kong's words made the deity pause.

The deity narrowed his eyes and said, "Since that's the case, I definitely cannot let you live!"

The deity's words further confirmed Ye Kong's suspicion that noble families were colluding with foreign races!

The deity's runes appeared around him, and a terrifying Great Path Divine pressure was everywhere.

"Rumble!" Just then, thunder rolled in, and a thundercloud broke through the divine pressure, descending in front of the deity.

Above the thundercloud was naturally the Great Path Divine Lightning, with rumbling thunder and flashing Thunder Light.

Seeing this, Wen Gan and Liu Che immediately called their subordinates to break through to the rear.

"Quick, General Ye is about to summon Divine Lightning, let's break out!"

Liu Che mounted his Crocodile Horse. Thanks to Ye Kong strengthening his Physique to Heaven-Grade, he had fully recovered.

"Brothers, break through and kill with me!"

The Xiandeng Camp death warriors took the lead, attacking outwards.

The deity's face immediately turned solemn as he saw the terrifying thundercloud in the sky.

The deity's face was grim, his gaze like a torch, his brows slightly furrowed.

"Is this the Great Path Divine Thunder Power? Its might is truly extraordinary!"

"Then let me show you the Great Path Divine Thunder Power!" Ye Kong replied with a solemn expression.

Crackling, as Ye Kong spoke, the Divine Lightning mark on his glabella hissed and hummed, glowing with Thunder Light, slowly opening. A powerful Divine Lightning heavenly might overflowed from it.

"What arrogance! Ye Kong, you merely took first place in the Ten Kingdoms Tournament and have not yet advanced to deityhood, yet you dare to speak so presumptuously. Are you not going to the Imperial Capital to contend for the great throne?" the deity roared angrily.

"Someone who colludes with foreign races has no right to accuse me!" Ye Kong said coldly.

Ye Kong glanced around and saw that Liu Che and Wen Gan had already led their troops to charge out. He tightened his grip on the Demon-Sealing Soul-Devouring Slash in his hand.

"Let's stop talking nonsense, come and fight to the death!" Ye Kong shouted, and immediately, Killing Intent surged in the sky.

Asura Power possessed Ye Kong, and a bloody aura spread out.

"What arrogance!" The deity laughed in extreme anger, his eyes faintly showing rising fury. He hadn't expected Ye Kong, a mere Venerable, to dare to disrespect a deity so much.

Zzzzz!

One person's love for the exam, r. The sea of attire, deterring all masked soldiers.

With a rumble, the vertical eye of lightning on Ye Kong's glabella burst forth with Thunder Light, echoing the sea of lightning in the sky, as thunder rolled.

Amidst the boundless Thunder Light, a Divine Lightning instantly shot out from Ye Kong's glabella.

This terrifying Divine Lightning shook all directions, and the deity's face instantly turned ugly. He was oppressed by the heavenly might emanating from Ye Kong's Divine Lightning, feeling a chill down his spine.

The deity found it hard to believe: "Impossible, this Divine Lightning actually possesses such powerful Great Path power. Has Ye Kong already grasped a part of the Great Path Law?"

Wen Gan and Liu Che, who had charged out, also showed unprecedentedly solemn expressions. Looking at Ye Kong, whose might was constantly rising, they felt a little worried.

As the Divine Lightning charged forward, the deity immediately spread his hands to block. Unexpectedly, the Divine Lightning struck the deity's hand, immediately releasing Great Path power to contend with the deity's protective Law.

"What!" The deity was greatly alarmed.

— In an instant, the Divine Lightning pierced through the deity's protective Law, directly penetrating the deity's arm.

The deity looked at his bleeding hand in disbelief, shocked by this Great Path Divine Lightning.

"All of you, retreat to the temple. Do not leave without my summons!" the deity shouted to the masked soldiers below who were still trying to pursue the Rebellion Suppression Army.

"Yes!"

The masked army suffered heavy losses, with their corpses scattered everywhere in the desert. Although they were unwilling, they had no choice but to obey the deity's command.

"All troops, retreat!" The masked army's commander gave the order, and they quickly began to withdraw, disengaging from Wen Gan and Liu Che's Rebellion Suppression Army.

"This Divine Lightning is infinitely powerful, and Ye Kong has already grasped the true Great Path Law of Divine Lightning. This Divine Lightning can pierce through a deity's protective Law, I must be careful!" the deity thought to himself.

Ye Kong's expression remained unchanged. Seeing the deity's arm pierced by his Divine Lightning, he became even more excited, revealing a confident look.

The deity did not rush to attack, merely remaining secretly vigilant, ready to strike at any moment.

With the blood blade in his hand, Ye Kong's Battle Intent soared, and his entire body was enveloped in Killing Intent. At this moment, he was a true Asura, making anyone who looked at him shiver.

Above, the thunderclouds continuously emitted thunderous roars like a falling waterfall, shaking the firmament.

Within the thunderclouds, the newly formed Divine Lightning had absorbed Ye Kong's Killing Intent. Killing Intent and Divine Lightning intertwined, enveloped in a blazing Thunder Light, complementing each other, causing the power contained within this Great Path Divine Lightning to continuously rise.

Ye Kong had forgotten when he had mixed Divine Lightning with Killing Intent. This power was much stronger than pure Divine Lightning, but its true might could only be experienced by others when it descended.

Or rather, enemies struck by this attack would have no place to be buried.
