I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night-Chapter 1226 - 647: Slaying Liu Zun, the God of Old Longings! (Part 2)
For example, Lv Tang, Lu Changsheng, Shen Jiang, and others, all past injuries have healed completely.
Furthermore, their foundations are perfect, ready to break through to higher realms.
"Achieve becoming a Human Martial Saint as soon as possible."
Lin Yan said, "In these changing times, if one does not become a Human Martial Saint, they are ultimately an ant."
In the era of the resurrection of all gods, even a Human Martial Saint is but an ant.
However, with the military formation methods preserved by Upper Heaven, and the complete inheritance of the God of War Emperor Clan, the Human Clan has already trained many elite warriors.
With these numerous elite warriors, using the body of a Human Martial Saint as a carrier, one is not an ant.
Even if unable to rival the Old Gods, they can still uphold a realm of purity for the Human Clan.
As Lin Yan once again performed a salute,
his figure suddenly disappeared.
Only the vast starry sky flickered, radiating brilliance instantly and vanishing just as swiftly.
——
Outside High Willow City.
Lin Yan hurried along the road with all his might, without pause.
In the past, his temperament would have him retract his Qi Mechanism during travel, slaying demons along the way, exterminating evil spirits.
But now, he has more important matters to attend to, and the traces of the gods’ resurrection weigh heavily on his heart.
Apart from the resurrection of the gods, there is also the Netherworld.
The Netherworld has taken Lord Lu’s True Spirit.
It must have reconstructed a path to the Mortal World.
Though Yin Tianzi is dead, the Netherworld still houses many Ghost Gods, with their might rivaling that of Old Gods.
Especially the Ten Yama Ghost Kings, comparable to Upper Celestial Gods.
Added to this are countless Netherworld soldiers, forming formations to aid.
The Yama Ghost King, already at the level of an Upper Celestial God, is sufficient to reach the level of the Ancient Cyan Dragon Emperor, with combat power approaching the Half-step Emperor Realm.
If Lin Yan cannot become an Immortal God, no amount of skill can rival the grand army of the Netherworld.
Only by becoming an Immortal God can he repel the Netherworld and even break into the Netherworld to rescue Lord Lu and Yun Qing.
Only by becoming an Immortal God can he have the right to gather all the Netherworld’s authority into himself, incorporate them into his Inner Realm, and become the new Yin Tianzi.
"Uncle, you said you would inevitably bring back Lord Lu, but the dead cannot be resurrected..." Lin Xiaoyue said softly, her eyes complex.
"In front of me, even the dead can be resurrected."
Lin Yan said with a solemn tone, "Return home first, tonight we will dine together, but now... I must visit Liu Zun Temple."
With these words, he left Lin Xiaoyue behind.
Then, in a single leap, starlight manifested, and he was already within the Gaoliu Inner City.
Today, High Willow City is surrounded inside and out by a Great Array.
Yet, with Lin Yan’s abilities, these arrays could not hinder his descent.
In the next moment, he appeared before Liu Zun Temple.
Using the Creation of All Things Skill, he concealed all Qi Mechanism.
None of the temple priests, Divine Envoys, or Divine Temple Guards sensed his arrival.
He walked forward, heading towards the hall.
The hall inside was empty.
Suddenly, Divine Light appeared.
A figure descended.
This figure had an otherworldly demeanor, like an elegant scholar.
Looking at Lin Yan, they said slowly, "From the city under my protection has emerged a Saint Master capable of influencing the world for generations, how rare! I assumed you were merely a contemporary leader of the Human Clan, but never thought you possessed the ability to slay Divine Spirits..."
"Indeed, the once unsurpassable Divine Spirits, the Immortal Gods we dared not gaze upon, existences only to be reverently worshipped, are not impossible to slay."
Lin Yan slowly said, "I long knew you are not one content with silence. In just a decade, even with my brother as the Great Temple Priest, with the Unclean Spirit Duke’s help... you’ve changed."
"Not changed, but maintained my ’self’."
Liu Shen slowly said, "Can a youngster practicing exorcism, a residual thought of a Creation God, restrain me?"
Looking at Lin Yan, they said aloud, "The Human Clan, with their incense offerings, confounded my mind, trapped me for years. Now I seek to awaken myself and escape this trap, to gain freedom, is it a crime? Over the years, it is I who protected the Human Clan, I who contributed to the Human Clan. It is the Human Clan who harmed me with their incense, it is you Humans... who owe me!"
"High Willow City now has expanded with a new city; this city has a population close to two million."
Lin Yan said calmly, "You want to escape, resulting in more than half of these two million either dead or injured, with the surviving remnants left homeless and displaced. As part of the Human Clan, I cannot agree with you..."
Pausing, Lin Yan continued, "Besides, you and I both know, back then when you protected the Human Clan, it was because you obtained the Ancient Immortal’s disaster-avoidance method, and thus signed an old pact!"
"These years of protecting the Human Clan is your rightful duty."
"But you’re inherently rebellious, secretly influencing the Human Clan with old thoughts, breeding Tribulation Ash to destroy the city."
"You are determined to violate the pact, faithless."
With Lin Yan’s words, he spoke gravely, "You could have chosen to refuse the old pact with the Ancient Immortal, and fallen in the great tribulation of those days! Since you chose the pact, you should not break your promise..."
"Breaking a promise?"
Liu Shen shook their head slightly, saying, "The nature of Tribulation Ash is still the Human Clan! What concern is Human Clan’s internal conflict to me? I have never violated the old pact..."
"But you never intended to uphold the old pact either."
Lin Yan said in a flat tone, "Today I come with only one purpose!"
"You want accountability?"
Liu Shen sighed, saying, "It is for the Taixuan Divine Mountain incident; indeed, the Tribulation Ash in High Willow City targeted your niece..."
"I warned you back then."
Lin Yan said coldly, "You should have abided by your duties, using the Human Clan’s incense to protect God’s thoughts, continuing to safeguard the Human Clan! Yet ten years later, you broke your promise to me!"
He slowly opened his Heavenly Eye in the middle of his forehead.
The Great Vajra Incense Fire Divine Body made his entire being shine with golden light.
Breathing deeply, he said, "The Ancient Immortal is dead, having passed through the ages. Now, the remaining divine decree from the Nine Heavens above, lacks sufficient mana, and your indifference to their grace is understandable! But since I, the Saint Master of the Human Race, am still here, your disregard for my respect..."
"The ant of those years, a mere junior, now dares to threaten me?"
Liu Shen said in a flat tone, "If you wish to fight, regardless of victory or defeat, I will give my all, High Willow City... will be destroyed from henceforth!"
In the next moment, their eyes revealed a hint of mockery, saying, "To this day you have no Dao Fruit, nor have you become an Immortal God. Your cultivation is limited; even if your abilities are exceptional, previously you used Heavenly God power to slay the Tai Sui Dragon, yet now, how much can you still muster?"
"..."
Lin Yan’s expression remained unchanged.
If he did not possess Qi Eating Divine Power, if he could not absorb the incense of the world, he could not have slain the Tai Sui Dragon.
Even if he had slain the Tai Sui Dragon, he would have been utterly exhausted.
Without achieving the Immortal God Dao Fruit, power is ultimately limited, and once exhausted, it takes a long time to recover.
But even this old Old God cannot foresee how many secrets Lin Yan truly hides.
He chuckled softly, saying, "Liu Shen could be said to have watched me grow, witness my step-by-step advancement, yet today, you still seem unable to grasp my true abilities."
Rumble!!!
Liu Shen was enraged!
The guardian thought of the Human Clan’s incense had been completely suppressed by them.
The present Liu Shen is truly an Old God, capable of fully controlling the Divine Body!
The willow tree rose by a foot, its roots uprooting.
The entire High Willow City swayed with it.
In an instant, the world turned upside down,
countless buildings collapsed.
The earth cracked!
Liu Zun was about to uproot.
High Willow City was on the brink of utter destruction.
But at this moment, between Lin Yan’s brows, the Heavenly Eye Divine Light emitted.
"In my presence, you have no chance to go all out."
From Lin Yan’s forehead burst the Daluo Sacred Seal Demon Slaying Divine Light.
Instantly piercing through the phantom of Liu Shen before him, directly infiltrating the enormous willow tree.
"You dare kill me?"
Liu Shen’s voice was icy, roaring, "If I fall, though High Willow City might not perish, it will lose divine protection, becoming a demon-infested purgatory from then on..."
"I’m only killing you!"
Lin Yan said slowly, "The guardian god of the Human Clan can still exist!"
Flicking his fingers, he shouted, "Demon Suppression!"
"How dare you!"
Liu Shen roared, "Do you know which Great God I am under?"
"Under the Judicial Great Heavenly Monarch, among one thousand two hundred leaf generals, you’re but one."
Lin Yan said slowly, "Today your old thought perishes, and the Judicial Great Heavenly Monarch will not hold me accountable!"
