Chapter 328: Advantage Of Higher Civilization
As Li Jun watched the armor around the Death God, although he was a little surprised, in general, things did not change much. With the Armor Law, a Void Shattering would be immune to mots non-Law related attacks.
So, even if thousands of Primordial Spirit attacked them at the same time, it would not cause them any damage. Nevertheless, there is still a limit. As long as an attack reached a certain level, it can still be broken.
So, he decided to use an attack from his newly created [Slaughter Dao Code] from being enlightening by the 3000 Dao Orbs.
A river of blood that covered the entire sky appeared behind Li Jun; he looked like the Sovereign of Blood, like a mighty God of War that has only left trails of blood and destruction behind him.
Li Jun raised his halberd to control the blood sea but suddenly stopped. In his mind, he could hear the sound of breaking followed by a cry of intense pain.
It finally dawned on him that this world was only a Middle Thousand World and could not withstand a certain threshold of power; his current attack has passed that threshold.
Truth be told, his short battle with the Death God reached the power of Void Shattering Realm–which should be higher than the threshold of this world. However, since Heavenly Abode World is a special one, it was not that affected.
However, the attack that Li Jun was about to use to break the Death God’s Law Armor was too powerful.
After making this discovery, Li Jun dispersed his attack–an act which bewildered the Death God; he thought that something might have happened to his opponent.
’Maybe the tide of this war will sway to my advantage,’ thought the Death God. Unfortunately, his thought was very wrong.
Li Jun took out a jade Talisman to communicate with someone. A few seconds later, the formation in the sky shone brightly, then a look of horror happened on the Death God’s face.
His armor slowly dissipated.
"What have you done to Mother God?" he roared out loud. "Why can’t I feel my connection with her."
Death God try to mobilize his power of Law, but nothing happened; he had lost his power as a Supreme God.
"Mother God? Is that what you people called the Heavenly Dao of this world?" asked Li Jun. "Quite fitting I guess."
"Answer my question!"
"We have long speculated that the power of Law of your Supreme Gods came from Heavenly Dao. As long as the connection between the two of you is broken, all of you should lose that power."
The Death God immediately became flustered after hearing this. All the Gods revered Heavenly Dao and considered her as their creator, their mother–hence the name.
They believed that although she rarely intervened in the world, her power was supreme and almighty. But now, these Outsiders have proven to have the ability to interfere with her, and even cut off the blessing that she gave them.
Li Jun could read his change of emotions with a single glance. Internally, he shook his head. This is the difference between a powerful world and a small one: the way they see and understand the world is completely different.
This manifest in the form of advanced civilization. The Gods of this world never fathom that someone could affect Heavenly Dao. However, to Li Jun from a powerful world, completely enslaving the Heavenly Dao of a Middle Thousand World is a very common thing.
After shaking his head, Li Jun took out a Sealing Artifact that looked like a bead, preparing to seal the Death God. Right now, the latter’s strength has decreased from a Half-Saint to the Primordial Spirit Realm.
An accident then occurred. The Death God–who was flustered and anxious–suddenly started to burn his soul and the majority of the incense inside his Heavenly Abode.
Li Jun flicked his finger to throw the bead at an incredible speed. Once it arrived in front of the Death God, the latter was instantly swallowed by it. However, Li Jun could feel that he was a step too late.
As he held the bead in his hand, he could see the body of the Death God inside, seeming to be in a forced sleep. After sighing, he used a Teleport Spell to arrive on top of the Death Kingdom Capital.
Although in the Myriad Emperor World, cultivators in the Void Shattered Realm can break the void to teleport, a few Emperor Lineages have developed Space Spells.
However, a requirement of origin essence is required before learning or using the spell; otherwise, the user will instantly be drained of his energy.
"Did something happen?" asked Yan Liling after seeing Li Jun’s arrival.
"Yes, the Death God used some kind of secret method to bypass the formation and send some information outside."
"Would that affect our plans?"
"Most likely," replied Li Jun nonchalantly. Nevertheless, he did some that worried. He then handed the bead to Wang Ju:
"See if you can search his soul to gather any information."
"Where are you going?" she asked back after taking it.
"I just received news that the Supreme Gods are constantly attacking the formation. So, I’m going to control the formation to prevent any accident, and also reduce the resources to maintain the formation."
Everyone nodded their heads to him, before focusing on their own tasks. Still, before disappearing, Li Jun still said: "Don’t forget your reports."
Before coming to this world, Wang Wei tasked them to write a report on the things to be aware of during Inter-Planar War between different worlds; he wanted to be prepared for the future by preparing some sort of standard or guideline that can be applied to many worlds.
Of course, this guideline will be a general one. The majority of worlds are different, so different approaches have to be taken. Nevertheless, there should be some similarities that can be used.
While Li Jun was gone, Tie Gang took control of his Undying Legion while Yan Liling controlled the Slaughter Legion.
Tie Gang looked at the capital underneath his feet and said: "To all the Gods, surrender now or suffer the consequences."
His voice echoed not only in the capital but all the cities under the Death Kingdom. The King along with many Aristocrat Families who were granted cultivation techniques looked at the sky with great horror.
They watched as their supreme leader, the Death God, the most powerful of the Supreme Gods, was easily defeated and sealed away. So, they became scared, wondering what they should do.
The king quickly gathered a few people to discuss their next step of action. After a brief discussion, someone was sent as a representative to talk to Tier Gang.
As for the mortals, they only wondered why the Gods were fighting amongst each other; they could not differentiate between Gods and Cultivators. All people with extraordinary abilities were labeled as "gods" to them.
Tie Gang looked at the Demi-God flying to see him. Without even giving her a chance to open her mouth, he said: "You are not qualified to discuss any terms or agreement with me. Have your king come or be annihilated."
The Demi-God almost choked after hearing this; her breathing instantly became rapid. She wanted to become angry out of shame, however, after feeling the intense killing intent coming from Tie Gang’s body, she decided to return and relay his words.
Tie Gang did not do this because he wanted to be a jerk or show up the fact that he was from a powerful world. After all, the world he’s from is even weaker than this one.
The reason he did that was a form of a power play to display their superiority in the current situation. This would in turn allow him to have a better advantage in negotiation.
Although military-wise, their group can totally annihilate these Gods, however, doing so is not in their best interest. Their complete and absolute surrender is in their best interest.
A few minutes later, a middle-aged man wearing a crown flew in front of Tie Gang; he had the aura of a True God which was equivalent to the Supernatural Realm.
Tie Gang looked at him up and down before directly saying: "I will be direct. If you surrender and agree to worship our God instead, all of you can keep your strength, abilities, and titles as Gods.
"If not, prepare to be annihilated."
The Death King’s eyes lit up after hearing this. What he feared the most was that those people will either kill them or strip them of their powers. But now, it seemed that all they wanted was for them to change their faith.
"We will immediately surrender," replied the Death King. He did not care that he was the descendant of the Death God. After all, he could not even remember which generation of descendants he was; that’s how long the Death God has lived.
"Can you represent the other Gods in the capital?"
"Yes," replied the king. "However, there are a few that are considered Fanatic Believers; they will never abandon their faith in the Death God."
"Then, they will perish."
