Dawn of a New Era-Chapter 563 - 537: God of Blood (Part 1)
Li Wenwu took the bow and slung several quivers over his back one by one.
Then he immediately familiarized himself with the war bow.
This war bow was heavier than his, but it wasn’t a big deal.
As a seasoned Divine Archer, he could adapt to any bow upon picking it up, making it no different from his own.
"Why is the bow limb so thick?" He touched the bow limb, feeling an ominous premonition creep into his heart.
He quickly looked at the model engraved on the bow limb.
"Hiss!"
Just one glance, and he couldn’t help but gasp in shock!
"5000 pounds!"
Two thousand two hundred and fifty kilograms!
Isn’t that a bit exaggerated?
His arm strength was about only two thousand five hundred kilograms or so.
He couldn’t help but glance at Chen Shouyi, who was sitting beside him, still devouring Divine Flesh like a maniac.
Watching how easily Chen shot arrows before, like raindrops, it seemed the draw weight didn’t affect him at all.
Maybe... it wasn’t that heavy at all!
Hmm, surely that’s it.
Li Wenwu gripped the bowstring with three fingers, exerting force secretly.
However, after pulling one-third, he couldn’t draw it any further.
At this moment, Chen Shouyi noticed the movement beside him, glanced at him, and said, "This bow might be a bit heavy; it’s a bit of a strain to draw."
Upon hearing this, Li Wenwu’s face slightly flushed. He gritted his teeth, held his breath, and let out a muffled roar in his heart.
The entire bow was finally drawn. After holding it for a moment, he slowly released the bowstring, feeling a heavy pressure on his chest, stars flashing before his eyes, and he calmly commented, "Hmm, it’s fine, just a bit heavier than mine."
Nobody noticed his hands trembling slightly, unable to stop.
...
After advancing just over twenty kilometers, the second wave of attack had already arrived.
A terrifying creature ran from the horizon, with clouds of dust rolling behind it, as if a dust storm had been stirred.
This was a humanoid monster with a hideous shape, holding a long spear in its hand, dragging a long tail behind, and bearing the head of a beast. Its whole body was covered in fiery red scales, like a burning flame.
Standing about nine meters tall, it appeared terrifyingly daunting, filling onlookers with dread.
"Ruba!" the God of Conspiracy suddenly said.
"What is this?" Li Wenwu asked in a deep voice, prepared for a fierce battle.
"This is one of the two important subordinates cultivated by that beast. It’s said to extract bloodlines from the remains of ancient gods, boasting considerable power, enough to contend with demigods," the God of Conspiracy solemnly stated, sneaking a glance at Chen Shouyi.
Chen Shouyi’s expression remained unchanged: "A demigod, huh? I’ll handle it!"
"Gods of Enchantment and Conspiracy, how dare you invade my master’s territory again and again? My master has had enough of your sweet words. Do you want to start a war?" the monster roared from afar, its voice like rolling thunder.
"No, no, no, this isn’t my doing. These two humans came looking for your master..." the God of Conspiracy smiled appropriately and spoke leisurely.
However, before he could finish speaking,
pa! A slap sent him flying to the ground.
No matter what he intended to say, it was enough to keep him silent.
Ruba was taken aback, staggering in its run, nearly stumbling to the ground.
What had it just witnessed?
The Divine Descent of the God of Enchantment and Conspiracy was slapped to the ground. Although a Divine Descent in this world was indeed weak, it still represented a True God, and without the God of Blood backing it, Ruba would not dare to easily offend a god.
But soon enough, it didn’t have time to think about this anymore.
A figure, like an arrow leaving the string, rushed rapidly towards it.
Meanwhile, his body rapidly swelled, his bones becoming robust, and countless blood and flesh materializing out of nowhere...
Three meters...
Five meters...
Finally stopping only after swelling to eight meters.
The description is lengthy, but the transformation from his original body took less than 0.1 seconds in reality.
The terrifying power enabled each of his steps to cover a hundred meters, his body fully breaking the sound barrier.
The booming sonic boom was like thunder rolling from the sky.
This was a terrifying speed, closing a one or two-kilometer distance in nearly a single breath!
Ruba’s expression changed drastically, watching the rapidly enlarging figure before it. It let out a desperate growl, muscles swelling across its body, the flames on its surface fiercely burning, exerting all its strength against the blurry figure.
With a fierce thrust.
But it completely missed.
The next moment, a fist wrapped in dense air current instantly struck its head, smashing it like a watermelon.
A shockwave ripple spread, wild winds breaking the surrounding trees in various directions.
Chen Shouyi retracted his body, shaking off the foul-smelling blood, then retrieved a set of clothes from space and changed.
He then walked to the enormous corpse, bent down, pulled the over ten-meter-long long spear from its hand, and threw it into space as a trophy.
In the distance, Li Wenwu stood with his mouth agape, his body frozen as if petrified.
Was it really over?
He hadn’t even seen it clearly.
It was a complete instant kill, utterly an instant kill!
This gap was utterly despairing!
The God of Conspiracy felt uneasy, a powerful demigod was dispatched so effortlessly? And it seemed his strength’s limit hadn’t even been tested, perhaps... that barbaric human truly defeated a True God with Weak Divine Power.
At that moment, the God of Conspiracy suddenly sensed something and became excited, looking towards the sky.
In the distance, the clouds changed like galloping horses, instantly transforming, sometimes gathering, sometimes quickly dissipating, fleeting.
The God of Blood finally couldn’t hold back.
Go on, clash!
Fight to the death!
At this time, Chen Shouyi gestured at him: "Come here!"
The God of Conspiracy immediately donned a flattering expression, trotting over: "Respected sir, you called?"
"Is this body descended through thoughts?"
"Ah, yes!" the God of Conspiracy answered, feeling slightly puzzled.
If I were in my true form, utilizing my Divine Power, even a True God would fall under my enchantment, how could I be in such humiliation.
"Where’s the real body then?" Chen Shouyi asked.
"Of course, in the Tam World." Suddenly sensing something amiss, the God of Conspiracy became apprehensive, hastily swearing, "I have always maintained friendly and peaceful relations with the Great Xia Country, never daring to offend Great Xia."
"I don’t believe you because you’re a liar," Chen Shouyi replied calmly.
The God of Conspiracy almost cried; you can’t accuse me of lying just because I’m the God of Conspiracy and Enchantment, can you?
Preparing to further express loyalty, he suddenly shuddered, his head shattered by a palm, his thoughts erased by Chen Shouyi’s will.
"Why did you kill him?" Li Wenwu asked as he approached.
"Because he’s no longer needed," Chen Shouyi stood up and said, "Stay far away. If things go south, retreat at once."
"...Alright, be careful!" Li Wenwu replied solemnly after a brief silence.
At this time, an overwhelming pressure was already pouring forth.
The air became restless.
The world was swept by violent winds, and the light grew dim, as if a giant stone pressed upon Li Wenwu’s heart, a suffocating weight.
Li Wenwu swiftly retreated.
Chen Shouyi watched his receding figure and refocused his gaze.
Then he placed the trembling little creature he had been hiding on the ground: "It’s dangerous here, find someplace to hide."
"The little one isn’t scared... but good giant, the little one will hide now, come back soon to find me!"
The Shell Lady put on a brave front, and after Chen Shouyi’s promise, she swiftly flew towards the nearby mountains and woods.
Chen Shouyi took out a piece of Divine Flesh, tearing it vigorously while sprinting towards the approaching God of Blood, leaving this place behind.
"Let me see how strong you are!"
His heart harbored little anxiety but was instead filled with excitement, feeling his blood boiling and burning.
For this moment, hadn’t he endured monotonous martial practice daily with unwavering dedication?
