Sinking Stone

Fan Xiu, on the other hand, stood like a towering mountain, as steady as a rock. The defensive light around him showed no fluctuation whatsoever, as if the attacks were nothing more than a gentle breeze.

He stood tall and straight, his expression cold and aloof, his powerful aura inspiring awe. Bathed in light, he exuded an inviolable majesty, as if no power in the world could shake him in the slightest.

The entire square was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

A deathly silence enveloped the vast space, and everyone seemed to be frozen in place, not daring to breathe.

The High-level Deity of the Holy Light Society were clearly panicked; their eyes widened in disbelief.

To their utter surprise, their all-out attack was so easily blocked and even bounced back, which was completely beyond their expectations.

Ji Yu also watched this scene with a solemn expression. His brows were tightly furrowed. He knew that the strength that Fan Xiu had shown far exceeded their expectations. The development of this conflict was becoming increasingly unpredictable, and the Holy Light Society was also in an extremely difficult situation.

They had clashed with members of the Temple of Light before, but they had never directly confronted a high-ranking God of Light. They themselves did not know that the difference between a God of Light with profound foundations and a God of Light with shallow foundations was that the two used the Light Reversal Technique differently.

It was at this crucial moment that they realized how superficial their understanding of the true power of the Temple of Light was.

This cognitive bias instantly put them in a passive and dangerous situation.

However, Fan Xiu did not kill them instantly. The reason was simple: the six high-level Gods of Light from the Temple of Light were still trapped there. He had reservations and dared not use force.

Despite his overwhelming advantage in strength, he could only temporarily restrain himself and dared not act rashly, lest the situation worsen.

But now they've already torn off all pretense of civility.

Both sides knew that this conflict could not be easily resolved, and every step that followed could determine the final outcome. In this tense moment, any small action could ignite an even fiercer battle.

One of the high-ranking Gods of Light from the Holy Light Society urged Ji Yu, "Your Ji Yu, what are you waiting for? If we don't summon that one, our Heavenly Realm may not escape calamity."

He was also frightened by the methods of the Fan Xiu.

Although they had heard of the Light Reversal Technique before, they had never grasped its power as deeply as they had now.

The attack was like a stone sinking into water, instantly overwhelming the opponent's strong defense, and was even mercilessly bounced back.

The sense of powerlessness and frustration pierced his heart, causing his original confidence and arrogance to vanish instantly.

Only then did he truly realize how powerful his enemy was, and the insurmountable gap in strength filled him with despair and fear.

Hearing their conversation, Fan Xiu's heart stirred, and he said in a deep voice, "Ji Yu, are you sure you want to make the situation irreparable?"

Fan Xiu's voice was deep and powerful, carrying a strong warning. His gaze was fixed on Ji Yu, his eyes filled with seriousness and solemnity.

Fan Xiu knew from the beginning that Ji Yu had a mysterious supporting force behind her, which was most likely Lord God Tier being.

Although the current Temple of Light Divine Realm has strengthened the boundary barrier, it is still possible to summon a main god with a deep connection to oneself using a special Summoning Technique.

If the other side actually summons the main god, the conflict will escalate to an extremely dangerous level...

Casting Summoning Technique the divine realm is different from casting it in Normal Region.

In Normal Region, performing Summoning Technique can only summon a phantom of a deity, which is illusory and ethereal, and contains extremely limited power.

When you use the magic of inviting gods in the divine realm, you can completely invite the gods over, allowing them to exert their full strength.

The Fan Xiu had accumulated tens of thousands of units of Light Reversal Technique defense, so he was not afraid of these high-level light gods. However, if the main god descended, the situation would be completely different.

If the opponent is willing to expend spiritual energy, his accumulated Light Reversal Technique defense might be broken, and then their Temple of Light would be in real danger.

A sense of unease arose in Fan Xiu's heart. He was well aware of the immense power of the Supreme God, a power that transcended the level of ordinary gods.

Even though he was exceptionally powerful among the high-ranking Gods of Light, he dared not be careless in the face of a supreme god. If the defenses were breached, the Temple of Light would be plunged into a tremendous crisis with unimaginable consequences.

Time ticked by, and Chi Ji Yu's expression grew increasingly grim.

Summoning that being naturally required a huge price, and this price was not only the cost of the Summoning Technique, but also a series of consequences he was unwilling to bear.

They thought that the Temple of Light had trapped six high-ranking Light Gods, and that their side had more High-level Deity than the Temple of Light, so they could defeat them.

However, the Fan Xiu's knowledge was far more profound than he had imagined.

Moreover, there are several other High-level Deity in the Temple of Light, not just Fan Xiu. There are others standing behind him, which makes him have to consider things carefully.

Seeing Fan Xiu, Ji Yu knew that there was still room for negotiation, so she thought for a moment and said to Yu, "Your Highness Fan Xiu, how about we make a truce?"

Ji Yu's voice carried a hint of probing and compromise as he stared intently at Fan Xiu, observing his reaction.

He naturally understood that what Fan Xiu feared was the safety of the six High-level Deity, and the main god figure he might summon. How could Yu Ji Yu not have worries as well? Ultimately, he simply didn't want to summon that main god.

Putting aside his loathing for that main god, the path he intends to take in the future is to compete for the position of Lord of the Temple of Light Divine Realm, not to rely on that disgusting main god to achieve his goal.

He harbored his own pride and ambitions, yearning to rise in the Temple of Light Divine Realm through his own strength and wisdom, to become the true Lord of Light God, and even to plot for the throne of the Light God King, rather than becoming a vassal of other gods.

Faced with Ji Yu's initiative to seek peace, Fan Xiu did not make a decision on his own. Instead, he sent a message to Yun Xi first.

Although the Temple of Light is still nominally ruled by Fan Xiu, Yun Xi, the Soul Fragment Reincarnation the God of Light Divine Child, has already arrived, and any major decisions must be made with her consent.

Upon seeing his message, Yun Xi immediately said that it was up to him to decide.

To reiterate, it's impossible for Fan Xiu to betray the Temple of Light. With his extensive experience in overseeing the Temple of Light, I believe he can make the best decision.

If Yun Xi were truly the reincarnation of the God of Light Divine Child, she might actually get involved, but she isn't.
