Wind God Venti Exposed! Barbatos, Wind of Freedom!

Qian Renxue felt as if she were floating on air. That feeling of being valued, of being held in the palm of someone's hand, caused the young mistress—who had lacked love since childhood—to fall more than halfway under his spell in an instant.

Bibi Dong watched her daughter's lovestruck expression, her own face darkening.

Just a moment ago, she had been mocking Qian Renxue in her heart for finding some wild man from the outside.

But she had been slapped in the face immediately after.

This was no wild man.

This was a diamond-encrusted golden son-in-law!

And a god-level one at that!

"Wind God..."

Bibi Dong muttered to herself, her gaze flickering.

She suddenly realized something truly terrifying.

Those forty-nine Vision previously were already enough to create an invincible army of spirit masters.

And that was merely the seventh-ranked existence.

Now, this fourth-ranked Gnosis of Wind was the very embodiment of a godhead.

Just how strong was this so-called "Wind God"?

He was certainly no ordinary deity!

He might even... be far more powerful than the Rakshasa God!

Thinking of this, a stormy sea surged within Bibi Dong's heart.

The Sky Curtain did not give everyone much time for gossip; the reward phase arrived right on schedule.

[In view of the fact that the Gnosis of Wind contains the power of the world's origin and serves as a testament to supreme affection, it is ranked fourth on the Rare Treasure Ranking!]

[A reward is hereby granted!]

[Reward 1: Full unsealing of the Gnosis of Wind!]

[Unsealing Effect: Once per day, the holder may ignore level restrictions and borrow the Wind God's full divine power! The duration depends on the holder's physical endurance.]

[Additional Effect: While under the influence of divine power, the holder gains "Protection of the Wind," granting immunity to all instant-death attacks. Even if the physical body is destroyed, the soul can be reshaped within the wind!]

[Reward 2: Granting the holder a second martial soul—Wind of Freedom!]

BOOM!

A magnificent cyan pillar of light pierced down directly from the Sky Curtain, enveloping Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue felt as if the chess piece in her hand had come to life, transforming into a warm current that instantly merged into her body.

Beside her original Angelic divine power, a new, incredibly agile and domineering force emerged.

It was the wind.

The freest, wildest wind.

She could feel that as long as she willed it, the winds of this entire world would obey her command.

Is this... the power of the Wind God?

Qian Renxue opened her eyes, cyan and gold light intertwining within her pupils, looking both sacred and majestic.

"This is his full power..."

She clenched her fist, feeling the vast, ocean-like fluctuations of divine power within her, and her estimation of that young man rose to yet another level.

This power made her feel that he was even more unfathomable than the Angel God.

Bibi Dong watched the drastically changed Qian Renxue, remaining silent for a long time.

Her mood was complicated.

On one hand, she was shocked by the terror of this power; on the other, she was jealous of her daughter's incredible luck.

Why wasn't such an opportunity hers?

Tang Sect encampment.

Looking at the words "full divine power," "immunity to instant death," and "reshaping the soul."

Tang San's expression could no longer be described as merely ugly; it was as disgusting as if he had swallowed a fly.

"Damn it!"

"This is nothing but cheating!"

Tang San slammed his fist against the crenellations of the city wall, shattering the brick and stone.

Although his Asura God Demon Slash could deal true damage and even sever godhood.

But the opponent was directly immune to instant death!

They can even resurrect after being hacked to death!

How the hell are we supposed to fight this?

"Where on earth did this Wind God crawl out from?"

Ma Hongjun looked utterly dejected.

"I've never even heard of him, so how can he pull out something so perverted the moment he makes a move?"

"Third Brother, how are we supposed to fight this battle?"

Everyone wore a look of deep concern.

They had originally thought that with dual god positions, Tang San had the victory in the bag, but now it seemed uncertain.

Just then, Yu Xiaogang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up.

He pushed up his non-existent glasses, his expression inscrutable.

"Everyone, do not panic."

"Although this reward seems heaven-defying, think about it carefully."

"The reason the Wind God is called the Wind God is merely because he is a deity who controls the wind element."

"In the God Realm, elemental gods are only Tier 1 deities."

"And Tang San's Asura God position is that of a God King!"

Yu Xiaogang stood with his hands behind his back, speaking eloquently.

"No matter how strong the power of a Tier 1 deity is, it is nothing before a God King."

"What's more, that Wind God was foolish enough to give away his Gnosis of Wind."

"This is equivalent to handing over the core of his god position."

"Right now, he is likely in an extremely weakened state."

Hearing this, Dai Mubai's eyes lit up, a flash of ruthlessness crossing his evil eyes.

"Grandmaster is right!"

"Since this Wind God is so generous, he must have other good things on him."

"And since he has lost two great treasures, he is at his weakest right now."

Dai Mubai looked at Tang San, his tone carrying a hint of incitement.

"Third Brother, Godwind City is not far away."

"Since this Wind God dares to interfere in our war with Martial Soul Hall and stand on Qian Renxue's side."

"Then we don't need to be polite."

"Why don't we kill our way over there right now and strike while he's down!"

"If we could also take this Wind God..."

Dai Mubai made a throat-slitting gesture.

Upon hearing this, the gloom in Tang San's eyes dissipated, replaced by a sharp glint.

That's right.

Teacher makes sense.

A Tier 1 god who has lost his core—what does he, the dignified Asura God, have to fear?

Moreover, if he could obtain the other treasures on the Wind God, he might be able to make up for the regret regarding the ranking of the Asura Demon Sword.

"Teacher, Mubai, you are both right."

Tang San nodded, regaining his confident demeanor as if he were in control of everything.

"This Godwind City is indeed worth a visit."

"I want to see exactly what kind of sacred being this so-called Wind God is, daring to steal the spotlight from me, Tang San."

"Whatever Qian Renxue has, I, Tang San, must also have."

"Not only must I have it, but it must be better than hers!"

Godwind City, inner courtyard of the City Lord Mansion.

The cyan beam of light that pierced the heavens and earth slowly faded, but the lingering, heart-palpitating divine power still rippled through the air.

As the perpetrator of all this, a youth dressed in green leaned lazily against a grand armchair.

He toyed with an apple he had swiped from somewhere, taking a crisp bite.

Looking at the lines on the Sky Curtain regarding the reward of the "Gnosis of Wind," the youth's movements paused slightly.

A flash of surprise crossed his eyes, which were as deep as pools.

"Good heavens."

"This Sky Curtain really dares to give anything."

He muttered to himself in his heart.

A full unsealing, and the ability to borrow all divine power?

That was the full-power form of Barbatos.

Although suppressed by the rules of this world and perhaps unable to unleash the earth-shattering might capable of cleaving Mondstadt in two, it was definitely not something these so-called gods of the Douluo Continent could compare to.

Coupled with that death-immune Protection of the Wind.

The current Qian Renxue, even if she were only a Spirit Saint, could wield her sword and chase down Tang San, that Asura god, to hack him to pieces.

It was practically an official cheat code.
