257: Human gods turn against each other

Was that a Void Realm Gate just now?

Even a god needs time to tear open the Void Realm and enter it. How could someone hide in the Void Realm in an instant?!

Shadow God Locke didn't believe Ye Kong had entered the Void Realm. He thought Ye Kong had used Spatial Law to hide in a concealed space, so he continuously swung his Pingmo Staff, attacking the area where Ye Kong had vanished.

Of course, even if the power of the Pingmo Staff caused the space to tremble, Ye Kong wouldn't fall out of space.

Hidden in the Void Realm, Ye Kong immediately pulled out a Divine Spark and began to absorb it on the spot.

This was the Divine Spark of a Rakshasa God from the Rakshasa Tribe.

The Law of the Rakshasa and Asura are of the same origin, so the absorption proceeded exceptionally smoothly.

Ye Kong was using this method to quickly replenish his physical strength and recover from his injuries.

An endless stream of Rakshasa Power was continuously converted into True Qi through Asura Power and injected into his body.

His broken ribs also healed at a miraculous speed.

Shadow God Locke, seeing that he had been attacking for a long time without making Ye Kong appear, began to suspect whether Ye Kong had truly entered the Void Realm.

Regardless of whether it was true or false, Ye Kong absolutely could not be allowed to escape.

Shadow God Locke immediately decided to tear open the Void Realm to investigate.

Powerful Shadow Power surged from Shadow God Locke. Shadow Law enveloped the entire sky, dispelling Ye Kong's thunderclouds, and the entire Imperial City was plunged into darkness.

Then, Locke reached out and probed a section of space in front of him, injecting True Qi. The space in front of him trembled, and then a Void Realm rift appeared.

At this time, although the Imperial City Army was puzzled about Ye Kong's whereabouts, they had to quickly rescue Hao Ping and Zhao Li.

Soon, the Imperial City Army found the heavily injured Hao Ping and Zhao Li, who had fallen to the ground, but the enemy soldiers immediately rushed over.

The Imperial City walls had defensive Laws, and the gap was a narrow terrain, so the Imperial City Army had an advantage in defense. But now that the Imperial City Army had charged out, how could the enemy army miss this opportunity? Led by their Venerables, they immediately charged again.

The two sides' forces once again clashed! "Zhenyuan Battalion is ordered to return to aid the Imperial City!"

A roar came from afar; it was Liang Zhe, the commander of the Zhenyuan Battalion recalled from the northern border!

Venerable Liang Zhe, at the Venerable Realm, wielded a crescent blade and led the Zhenyuan Battalion in a charge.

Behind him were two other units, led by Liu Che and Wen Gan.

"Zhenwei Camp, Xiandeng Camp are ordered to return to the Imperial City!"

The soldiers from the three Imperial City Army camps suddenly charged into the battle, catching the enemy forces off guard and instantly putting them at a disadvantage.

"Wen Gan, Liu Che, you escort Zhao Li and Hao Ping back into the city first. I'll hold them off here!"

After Liang Zhe finished speaking, he single-handedly faced three enemy Venerables, while the Zhenyuan Battalion soldiers behind him immediately formed a battle array, creating the Zhenyuan Great Array, to boost Liang Zhe's strength!

By this time, Locke had torn open a huge Void Realm opening and peered inside. He immediately saw a strong Great Dao of the Gods radiance emanating from within, but he couldn't clearly see who it was.

Locke sensed the aura of the Rakshasa God and asked aloud, "Rakshasa God? Have you also come to help?"

Suddenly, there was a flash of light. All the Great Dao runes were absorbed into one person's body, and then this person picked up a weapon and thrust it directly at Locke.

—It was Ye Kong!

Locke was greatly alarmed and quickly dodged, protected by Shadow Power, but he was too slow. The blood blade rushed out, leaving a deep bloodstain on Locke's face!

The Void Realm rift opened wide, and Ye Kong rushed out, his entire body radiating Killing Intent. Now, there was not only the aura of Asura but also the aura of Rakshasa, and his previous injuries had also recovered!

Ye Kong slashed with his sword, forcing Shadow God Locke back, then looked at Liang Zhe, the commander of the Zhenyuan Battalion, who was fighting desperately.

"Whoosh!"

Ye Kong flashed and appeared beside the unconscious Zhao Li and Hao Ping. He quickly took out several Spirit Medicines, refined their essence, and injected it into their bodies.

After finishing, Ye Kong took the opportunity to examine their injuries. Immediately, Ye Kong's expression darkened, and a sinister Killing Intent appeared between his brows.

The two were not unconscious due to severe Qi depletion, but because their Primordial Spirits had been severely damaged by divine pressure, which caused them to faint.

Ye Kong looked up at the sky with gloomy eyes, seeing Locke floating silently above, glaring fiercely at Ye Kong below.

How was this possible? Ye Kong had completely recovered!

"The other god, come out! If we're going to fight, I'm not afraid of two against one!"

Ye Kong instantly erupted, a surge of Killing Intent shooting into the sky, appearing utterly furious.

"Great Path Divine Thunder Power!"

As Ye Kong's roar still echoed in the sky, a flash of lightning appeared high above, dispelling the pervasive darkness, and Thunder Light bloomed.

The figure of another god in the distance also slowly appeared with this Thunder Light, standing solemnly in the sky.

...It's the Human Race God Dao Guang!

Seeing God Dao Guang appear, the enemy soldiers quickly bowed to Dao Guang. In particular, several Venerables were somewhat flustered. Dao Guang was an extremely powerful Human Race God; they hadn't expected him to come.

"Dao Guang, you are indeed a wolf in sheep's clothing, actually doing such insidious things. You are truly a disgrace to the Human Race, you deserve to die!"

Liang Zhe looked at Dao Guang and roared viciously.

The reason Zhao Li and Hao Ping were so severely injured was because this God Dao Guang had unleashed divine pressure, intending to launch a sneak attack while Ye Kong and Locke were locked in an intense battle.

This led to Zhao Li and Hao Ping's Primordial Spirits suffering a backlash, causing them to fall unconscious.

God Dao Guang's cultivation had reached the level of an Advanced God. Yang Wuji had previously warned Ye Kong to be careful of Intermediate and above Gods, as Gods of this Rank would be difficult for him to deal with.

In reality, there was no specific standard for the Rank of a god, but if it was publicly recognized by the world, it was enough to prove its strength.

God Dao Guang's divine pressure was extremely powerful, and it instantly shattered the Primordial Spirit imprints of Zhao Li and Hao Ping, who were fighting three enemy Venerables, rendering Zhao Li and Hao Ping unconscious.

God Dao Guang first glanced at the two injured individuals suppressed by his divine pressure, and after confirming that they had indeed lost their combat ability, he calmly looked at Ye Kong, not at all displeased by Ye Kong's insults.

However, when he saw the Asura Power emanating from Ye Kong, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes. He clearly had designs on the Demon-Sealing Soul-Devouring Slash in Ye Kong's hand.

God Dao Guang's action naturally did not escape Ye Kong's gaze, which made Ye Kong even more enraged. His eyes unconsciously turned bloodshot, and he looked at Dao Guang with a sinister expression.

"God Dao Guang, you are clearly of the Human Race, yet you aid the wicked and help foreign races. You truly have the mind of a petty person!" Ye Kong sneered viciously.
