Heavenly General Borrows Thunder to Suppress Gods, Returns to Probe a Dark Star

The outermost layer of the Continent is covered with clouds and thunder, beyond which lies the vast starry sky.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Streaks of light streaked across the starry sky, each streak tipped with a cold glint.

The radiant light danced across the sky, its trajectories sometimes intersecting and sometimes dispersing, appearing from afar like a net encompassing a vast expanse of the starry sky.

Inside the net, seven radiant deities were locked in a fierce struggle.

Most of them were cyan Divine Radiance, with two green ones, totaling seven. Although they were enveloped by the net of light, they were constantly stimulating their divine power, trying to break free from it.

However, the divine power unleashed by the seven deities lacked the corresponding flow of Incense Faith. Therefore, the divine power did not exhibit the characteristics of Domain of Law, but only possessed a certain degree of destructiveness, attempting to shatter the net that trapped them.

But lightning flickered within the net of light, actually suppressing the divine power!

At first glance, this net appears to be an object, but upon closer inspection, it can be discovered that it is actually composed of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals.

These Heavenly Soldiers and Generals radiated light and moved rapidly, looking like a thick beam of light. Together, they formed a net of networked deities.

"It's truly a case of a tiger fallen into the plains being bullied by dogs. When we were serving in the Heavenly Court, these Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, no matter how powerful their backers were, still had to show us respect. But now they dare to come and besiege us and block our way!"

"It's too late to say all this now. According to rumors, the Star Lord of the East Flower Continent has already departed, leaving this Continent unattended. That's why we came here, hoping to spread the rituals and break the path to destruction. But now it seems that the rumors were not true!"

Light and shadow scattered, and two deities radiating a green glow communicated with each other through Divine Sense.

Of the seven deities in this group, five emitted azure Divine Radiance and were of the Sixth Grade rank, while the remaining two were bathed in emerald Divine Radiance and were of the Fifth Grade. It was also evident from the scale of their actions that the seven deities were led by these two Fifth Grade.

At this time...

"Foreign gods, if you wish to enter the continent, you must submit to our Orthodox God!" A heavenly general who was fighting them said in a deep voice, his words carrying an air of unyielding authority.

"And who is your Orthodox God? Is it the Donghua Star Lord?" Immediately, a god asked in return. This god was slightly short in stature, but his face looked old, and his body radiated a blue glow. He was a Sixth Grade deity.

Calling Star Lord by the name of the Continent is a common practice among deities. When a Star Lord is addressed with his real title, there will immediately be Karma entanglements and he will notice it. This is something that a minor Lesser God cannot bear, which is why this way of addressing him came about.

"When you go and meet the Orthodox God, you will naturally know," the heavenly general replied, but did not give a direct answer.

Upon hearing this, the short, aged god had a general idea in his mind, and then he telepathically told the other Divine Path, "It is rumored that the Star Lord of this continent is not here, so there must be some high-ranking gods who know this. Perhaps these Celestial Soldiers are his subordinates. They got there first and have already established themselves in this continent. Otherwise, if they were really under the command of the Star Lord of this continent, why wouldn't they dare to speak out?"

"That makes sense. In that case, we need to carefully consider our options. Should we continue into the continent and contend with the god who arrived first, or should we leave now? This god can divide into Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, so his Divine Grade must be quite high. Even if he is suppressed by the power of heaven and earth and cannot easily enter the continent, he is still not easy to deal with... Hmm?"

Several deities communicated and discussed countermeasures using their Divine Sense, but before they could finish transmitting their thoughts, they were all attracted by a beam of light rushing from the depths of the starry sky!

"That is..." The two leading gods immediately extended their senses in that direction, and the radiance in the distance became much clearer, revealing itself to be a dazzling silver divine Divine Radiance!

"Silver Divine Radiance? Third Grade deity?"

Both gods were taken aback, their expressions immediately changing as they considered a possibility.

"Could it be that these are deities attracted by the Eastern Radiance Continent, which is now without Star Lord to guard it?"

This was not a baseless guess. The power of suppression and repulsion in that Continent was mainly aimed at deities of the Third Grade and above. Although Second Grade deities could resist it to some extent, they still had to pay a considerable price at all times.

In comparison, Third Grade deities are exceptionally favored. They can enter Continent and are not subject to much suppression. Therefore, whenever news spreads that Star Lord of a Continent has passed away, there is no shortage of Third Grade deities who would try their luck there.

Even in this world of gods, things are not always peaceful.

As the silver light hurtled towards the battlefield, the starry sky instantly distorted, and dozens of points of light representing Heavenly Soldiers and Generals converged from all directions. Once gathered together, they formed dozens of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, riding the clouds and mist, each clad in armor. At the very edge of the clouds and mist stood a large drum and a gong.

"Who goes there? State your name! Donghua..." The leading celestial general, with a dignified expression, uttered these words, attempting to intercept the Divine Radiance.

At the same time, they formed a united formation, and by borrowing the power of thunder from the edge of the East Flower Continent, their aura was in no way weaker than that of Third Grade.

This is also why the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals who transformed into a net of light were able to fight against the seven gods without being at a disadvantage. It was precisely through this combined power technique that the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals were able to draw upon Human Path Thunder to suppress the Divine Path.

Ultimately, although the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals are mostly derived from the gods, and their power is closely related to the gods who created them, at their core, they are just pieces of flesh that split off after the gods transformed into human bodies. They are not subject to much Human Path suppression, and on the edge of this Continent, they can take advantage of the situation.

With such a number of Celestial Soldiers stationed there, they became the guardians of the gates of the Continent, causing all invading gods to halt their advance.

However, the Divine Radiance did not stop after hearing the shout, nor did it slow down in the slightest; it continued to charge straight at us!

"Ungrateful!" The leading heavenly general was not surprised. Facing Third Grade deity, he showed no fear whatsoever. He simply snorted and waved his hand. The many Celestial Soldiers behind him dispersed and took up positions, linking up to form a formation!

The next moment, a wisp of lightning from the outer edge of the lower Continent immediately split off and rushed over, actually merging into that formation!

"Oh? Using the formation of Celestial Soldiers and drawing upon the Human Path Thunder? This is not something ordinary gods can do; it requires at least a certain understanding of Human Path and Order. May I ask the origins of the gods behind you..."

A Divine Sense emanated from the silver Divine Radiance, which then swept in, accompanied by the sound of reading that expanded and even reached the thunder!

Crash! Crash! Crash!

Within the formation of the Celestial Soldiers, the Human Path Thunder pulsated violently, each beat like a taut string being pulled apart, producing a heart-wrenching sound.

"What's going on? The gods on the other side can also control the power of Human Path Thunder? How is that possible?" At this moment, the leading heavenly general finally showed surprise, but before he could react, his Celestial Soldiers body was swallowed by a bolt of lightning.

Crackling! Crackling!

The radiant Divine Body was instantly engulfed in flames and shattered completely. Not only were its armor destroyed and its body vanished, but even the deepest part of its flesh was pierced by the Human Path Thunder!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the pitch-black starry sky, the light of the flames was so dazzling and radiant that the seven gods who were fighting were all stunned. They looked in the direction of the sound and saw a scene of Celestial Soldiers exploding one after another, like flowers blooming in competition.

The sheer density of the flames caused by the explosions obscured large swathes of the starry sky, but to the Divine Eye of the seven deities, these lights were insignificant. They could still see through the radiance a figure standing amidst the flames—

Her long hair was like fire, two dragons coiled beneath her feet, one hand held up the Mountain-River Treasure Pagoda, the other held a book, and Divine Radiance radiated from her body, a silver glow. However, her gray robe was covered with cracks, and something seemed to be hidden in the cracks.

"What kind of deity is this?" The sudden appearance of this figure caused a slight shock in the hearts of the seven gods.

"This god can actually control Human Path Thunder? This is different from the Celestial Soldiers who borrow it. Celestial Soldiers are, after all, creations and are not rejected by Human Path. But gods are different; they are opposed to Human Path..." The short, old god immediately sent out his Divine Sense to communicate with his six companions.

But before the Divine Sense could be fully transmitted, a flash of light appeared in their vision, and the gray-robed deity was already in front of them. This sudden change startled all seven deities, who were about to react instinctively. However, before their Divine Radiance could be activated, the gray-robed deity suddenly raised his hand, and the net of light formed by the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals surrounding them suddenly expanded and then exploded one after another!

Segment by segment, the Celestial Soldiers fell!

"You..." The two leading Fifth Grade deities, having broken free from the battle, paused for a moment, then sent a telepathic message, attempting to make contact with the other party. However, the gray-robed deity unexpectedly emitted a strange glint from his eyes, which spread over and swept past the seven deities!

Now, these gods all felt as if they had been seen through, and a sense of vigilance arose within them.

"I see. Your talismans are neither Virtual Talisman nor naturally formed. They are not compatible with your Divine Body, and they retain very little Incense Faith. Moreover, this energy is used to envelop the Core Talisman to prevent it from losing its Divine Grade quality. Therefore, you can only use your Divine Power Stars to fight enemies, instead of using Incense Gods."

After the gray-robed deity uttered these words, the seven gods opposite him all changed color.

The two leading gods were increasingly horrified and were about to ask questions when the gray-robed deity vanished in a flash.

"Hmm?" The two gods were startled, sensing something. They turned their heads and saw that the other god's figure was already a hundred feet away, but instead of flying towards the Continent, it was rushing towards the other end of the starry sky.

"He has come from afar, without entering Continent. Where is he going?" This question instantly filled the hearts of the seven gods, alongside their shock.

On the other side, at the end of the gray-robed deity's flight path, a Dim Star teetered on the brink of collapse. Within the star, a dilapidated palace floated, and inside sat a long-haired deity.

"We've been discovered!"
