177: I, Lu Chen, won this round again!

When the underground water System diverted according to the trajectory of the 'Commentary on the Water Classic', the 'Heavenly Mandate Dark Bird' inscription on the chests of the bronze giants suddenly glowed, and they collectively turned toward Lu Chen.

Their gazes were fierce yet silent, as if they had lost control.

They performed the yin-shang dynasty sacrificial rites, seemingly about to do something.

Watching this bizarre scene.

Lu Chen truly felt that this was a civilization grafting by the Heavenly Dao.

In its hands, any civilization could be fabricated and undergo Fusion at will.

Destruction and creation were merely a single thought away for it.

It did not care.

All it cared about was the destruction of all living beings.

Through the methods it constantly learned.

The crystal heart burst with seven-colored light, within which appeared the phantom of a bronze fleet crossing the Pacific Ocean.

These were clearly all Puppets of the Heavenly Dao.

They had likely already traveled through these places long ago.

They seemed to have received an order.

Starting to act, rather than standing by in the Void Realm.

In Lu Chen's Soul Fire, the harmony of two ancient languages resonated—the Maya priest's 'Popol Vuh' epic and the yin-shang dynasty shaman's 'Shang Song'!

Both voices shook the space simultaneously.

When the phantom fleet sailed into the Nether Rift, the altar beneath the three suddenly became a bronze divine tree.

The nine layers of branches were hung with Sanxingdui bronze divine masks, Maya jade masks, and Western Zhou Bronze Script chimes, while the sun wheel at the top of the tree revealed both the yin-shang dynasty ten-sun totem and the Venus trajectory of the Maya calendar simultaneously.

'This is the true melting pot of civilizations...' Lu Chen watched all this, his jaw opening and closing, 'Truly impressive!'

A fragment of an Yin Ruins oracle bone script piece fell from above; Lu Chen directly retrieved it from the Void Realm and took it into his hand!

He saw that it was a torn space.

Lu Chen looked at the two women,

'Ready to face the judgment of the Pantheon? The Pantheon of the Maya civilization is very interesting!'

Lu Chen didn't even need to perceive it.

He had already guessed what kind of thing was behind the torn space rift.

The oracle bone script just now had already revealed a lot of information.

It was the place of the so-called Maya judgment.

—The Pantheon.

As the space twisted.

Countless forces began to pour into the three people's bodies.

The moment the liquid jade solidified, the nine layers of branches of the bronze divine tree simultaneously burst forth with mysterious yellow Qi.

The hexagram patterns Sun Feifei had set up were also destroyed bit by bit.

Ancient Talismanic Incantation scriptures appeared on her body, spreading from her arm to her neck, and upon touching her jaw, they transformed into a totem like the Sanxingdui bronze divine mask.

Clearly she had also gained power.

Ignis retracted her lava wings into her body; within her flowed the forbidden power like that of the 'Cthulhu Mythos'.

Ignis felt that every bone joint in her body was embedded with the Maya sorcery power.

'Grab the bronze chain!' Lu Chen used twelve Nether Lotus flowers to lift the three of them.

The jade altar now fully revealed its true form—it was an armillary sphere pieced together from 720 pieces of Yin Ruins oracle bone script, every crack in the tortoise shell fitting perfectly with the runes of the Maya Long Count calendar.

Is this the judgment?

Is this the Pantheon belonging to the Maya civilization?

Is this the main god responsible for judgment in the Pantheon?

It looks just like the 'technology' of our ancient Huaxia yin-shang dynasty!

The environment changed suddenly!

The backflowing underground river suddenly solidified into the 3000 roots of the bronze divine tree, each root wrapped in a jade cong engraved with the Bronze Script character 'Sacrifice'.

The humus soil layer cracked with patterns like a star map, and what gushed out were no longer tree roots, but the palms of the Sanxingdui bronze standing statue, with burning Maya crystal skulls resting on the palms.

The jade pupils of the Feathered Serpent statue shot out beams of oracle bone script, weaving in the Void Realm into the outline of the Jianmu tree recorded in the 'Classic of Mountains and Seas,' while the nine golden crows on the canopy and the sun wheel at the top of the divine tree generated powerful forces, constantly entangling.

This is a moment of life and death struggle!

Lu Chen dared not be negligent.

The two women were naturally also on high alert.

Ignis raised her hand and unleashed a fire-breathing lava chain; she injected the Balrog power into the Zhen Palace position of the bronze divine tree!

Still the old method!

'I said, I hate people acting mysterious the most!' The Purgatory Fire climbed along the bronze branches, melting the twelve hanging fruits into lava ash.

Sun Feifei's Dao hairpin had fallen somewhere; her black hair hung down like a waterfall.

She bit her tongue and drew a 'Water and Fire Completion' blood Talismanic Incantation in the Void Realm; the bronze divine tree suddenly trembled like a Dragon's roar, and the sleeping Sanxingdui bronze vertical-eye mask at the roots suddenly opened its nine pupils.

'Kan and Li, return to position!' Sun Feifei shouted softly!

Lu Chen acted again!

He inserted the Heaven-Measuring Ruler into the tree heart; the Undead Fire followed those oracle bone scripts and ignited the entire divine tree directly.

When the flames touched the sun wheel at the top, the silhouettes of countless people from the past constantly appeared and changed all around—!

Their pupils reflected the phantom of the bronze fleet crossing the Pacific Ocean back then.

The fleet destroyed their civilization!

Each of them held a bronze dagger-axe engraved with the 'Heavenly Mandate Dark Bird' inscription.

They could not stop such dimensionality reduction strikes.

Such powerful force.

Those Puppets of the Heavenly Dao destroyed them in the previous era.

Civilization was destroyed, but it also planted the seeds of Nirvana.

The jade heart completely burst, and the 720 pieces of oracle bone script returned to their positions like stars.

The runes of the Maya Long Count calendar and the star map of the Huaxia 'Gan Shi Star Classic' fused beneath the three's feet, forming a bronze armillary sphere covering the Earth-Moon System.

The veins here perfectly interlocked with the cloud-thunder patterns of the Sanxingdui bronze divine tree.

Reflecting each other.

Beautiful and mysterious.

When Lu Chen's power was embedded into the core of the armillary sphere, an image appeared: the craters on the far side of the moon displayed a projection of the bronze divine tree, with Lu Chen's Nine Nether Lotus flowers floating at the canopy.

A teleportation point was opened.

The jade liquid gushing out from the Maya crystal skulls was reshaping the power of this place along the bronze roots.

'A wonderful effect; this place can be utilized in the future.' Lu Chen said, and he also urged his Soul Fire to split; Arthas's Frostmourne and Mordekaiser's Immortal Armor flashed alternately in the Void Realm, 'These powers are all mine now; use their blood to forge my Heaven-Defying path!'

Before his voice fell, the bronze divine tree suddenly disintegrated into billions of burning oracle bone scripts.

Sun Feifei immediately set up a Protector Formation, and the Formation automatically evolved into the 64th hexagram of the 'I Ching'.

Bronze as the bone, jade as the soul,

The Five Emperors and Three Sovereigns all pay homage.

Raising a hand to pluck stars from beyond the sky,

Only then do we realize our generation are shaman gods!

When the last jade beam was gathered into the armillary sphere, the Maya Secret Realm collapsed into the ninth pupil of the Sanxingdui bronze vertical-eye mask.

Lu Chen laughed coldly.

He held his sword and stabbed inside!

'Heavenly Dao, you are nothing more than this; I won this round a step ahead again!'

He stabbed in with one sword.

Lu Chen heard a voice.

It was a mechanical and emotionless voice!

—It said:

'Lu Chen... you... are just an anomaly... I am the Heaven...'

All Lu Chen responded to this thing with was disdain from the bottom of his heart.

I will fight you for the rest of my life!

Let's play slowly.

I have plenty of time.

Damn Heaven!

Fuck you, Heaven!
