"A human deity?" The man in the black cloak slowly turned around, his red pupils beneath the skull mask fixed on Loran. "I didn't expect someone to be able to break through the forest's spatial barrier and reach the core area."
"A mere lackey of the Chaos Divine Faction dares to covet the Origin of the Laws?" Loran's voice was icy cold, and the Laws of Lightning condensed into streaks of silver-white lightning dragons around him.
" The Origin of the Laws?" The man let out a piercing laugh. " Loran, you escaped by chance three hundred years ago, but today I will make you perish completely. With the power of the Origin of the Laws, I can ascend to God King, and then the entire Kalon Continent will become the territory of the Chaos Divine Faction!"
Loran was shocked; the other party actually knew him. He recalled carefully that during the war of the gods three hundred years ago, there was indeed a Deity Level expert from the Chaos Divine Faction who had chased after him. However, the other party had been seriously injured by his mentor at the time, but he didn't expect that the other party was still alive and that his strength had already increased to the Late-stage Deity Level.
"So it was you, Blood Bone Demon God." A murderous glint flashed in Loran's eyes. "Three hundred years ago, you severely injured my mentor. Today, I will avenge him!"
"Revenge?" The Blood Bone Demon God sneered, his chaotic energy surging violently. "You? Three hundred years ago you were just a novice Deity Level being. Even if you've touched the threshold of the God King Realm now, you might not be my match."
Before he could finish speaking, the Blood Bone Demon God suddenly raised his hand, and a black energy ball condensed in his palm. Evil runes flowed across the surface of the energy ball, which was the Deity Level skill of the Chaos Divine Faction - Blood Bone Annihilation.
"Master, let me do it!" Lei Lin roared, and the lightning and fire around him surged, transforming into a huge phantom of Qilin, which pounced towards the Blood Bone Demon God.
"You overestimating divine beast!" Blood Bone Demon God sneered, and the black energy ball flew out of his hand, hurtling towards Lei Lin.
" Lei Lin, step back!" Loran shouted, raising his hand to unleash the Violet Lightning Annihilation. The silver-white lightning ball collided with the black energy ball in mid-air, and a terrifying energy shockwave instantly swept across the entire valley. Rocks in the valley shattered, huge craters appeared in the ground, and even the withered trunk of the World Tree shook violently.
Lei Lin was thrown back by the shockwave and crashed heavily to the ground, a trace of golden blood spilling from the corner of its mouth. Although it was an ancient Qilin, it was still somewhat powerless against the chaotic skills of Late-stage Deity Level.
" Lei Lin!" Loran's heart tightened, and the fragment of Divine Spark was activated at full power. The Laws of Lightning transformed into a silver-white beam of light, which blasted towards the Blood Bone Demon God.
The Blood Bone Demon God hadn't expected Loran's attack to be so powerful, and hurriedly raised his hand to defend. Black chaotic energy formed a shield, but under the impact of the lightning pillar, the shield was instantly covered with cracks and finally shattered. The Blood Bone Demon God was hit by the pillar of light, his body flying backward and crashing heavily into the withered trunk of the World Tree. His skull mask shattered, revealing a hideous face covered with scars.
"Impossible! How could your understanding of the laws be so profound?" the Blood Bone Demon God roared in disbelief, his chaotic energy fluctuating violently.
Loran didn't answer, but instead rushed to Lei Lin's side and injected a pure stream of lightning divine power into its body. Lei Lin's injuries quickly healed, and its golden vertical pupils rekindled its fighting spirit.
Just then, the three Peak Deity Level magical beasts surrounding the valley suddenly moved. The Nine-Eyed Golden Python spat out a stream of golden venom, the Adamantine Mountain-Rending Bear swung its giant claws at the Blood Bone Demon God, and the Treant Elder released countless green vines that wrapped around the minions of the Chaos Divine Faction.
"It seems you made the right choice," Loran said to the three-headed monster.
The Treant Elder's voice was old and hoarse. " The Chaos Divine Faction is the enemy of all races, and we will not let them succeed. But human deities, remember this: after purifying the Origin of the Laws, leave the Magical Beast Forest immediately and never return."
Loran nodded. "I promise you."
The Blood Bone Demon God was enraged to see the three Peak Deity Level beasts helping Loran: "A bunch of foolish beasts! When I ascend to God King, you'll be the first ones I wipe out!"
The chaotic energy within him surged once more, causing his body to expand and transform into a colossal demon god standing thirty meters tall. The demon god's body was covered in black scales, with two pairs of bat wings sprouting from its back, and it wielded a massive bone sword in both hands—this was the true form of the Blood Bone Demon God.
"Today I will make you all perish!" the Blood Bone Demon God roared, wielding his bone sword and slashing at Loran. The bone sword contained dense chaotic energy and the Edicts of Destruction, tearing black cracks in the space wherever it passed.
Loran's eyes narrowed, and the fragments of his Divine Spark activated at full power. The Laws of Lightning and Laws of Space merged, transforming into a silver-white spatial blade that slashed towards the bone sword. At the same time, Lei Lin, the Nine-Eyed Golden Python, the Adamantine Mountain-Rending Bear, and the Treant Elder also launched their attacks. The four different laws intertwined, forming a powerful attack net that blasted towards the Blood Bone Demon God.
A battle of Peak Deity Level erupted before the World Tree Ruins. The five laws of lightning, chaos, poison, strength, and life intertwined and collided, and terrifying energy shockwaves spread continuously, causing the entire valley to tremble violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.
Loran knew that this was only the first step in purifying the Origin of the Laws. Next, he would not only have to defeat the Blood Bone Demon God, but also purify the Origin of the Laws that had been corrupted by chaotic energy, and then break through to the God King Realm to face even more powerful enemies from the Chaos Divine Faction. And all of this would begin in this ancient and mysterious Magical Beast Forest.
