A living calamity (33)

Is Tian Wu strong now?

On this point, any of the Gods of the Hundred Lands who rushed to the battlefield to fight them would unhesitatingly say that they were strong.

However, this strength is only relative to ordinary gods, and it cannot even touch the realm of Heavenly Deity.

Paradoxically, Tian Wu is indeed a Heavenly Deity in terms of rank.

--Gathering and scattering are invisible, manifesting as natural disasters.

These are the most typical characteristics of the Heavenly Deity, and also the fundamental reason why Tian Wu can appear in all eight tributaries at the same time.

"A freak forcibly glued together?"

After Li Boyang's reminder, Xiluo quickly noticed Tian Wu's unusual behavior.

Despite possessing Heavenly Deity- like status, Tian Wu's behavior was worse than that of an ordinary wild beast.

A sudden appearance, a violent and wanton destruction...

Tian Wu acts entirely on instinct, only attacking creatures that are hostile to him in his vicinity.

For the rest of the time, He polluted the waterways and instigated floods, acting like a true natural disaster with no self-interest whatsoever.

"What exactly is going on?"

Faced with Xiluo's question, Li Boyang gave an unexpected yet reasonable answer.

"The current Tian Wu is not just Tian Wu, but an aggregate of a large group of sea gods."

"He probably never dreamed that the South Sea God he chose to serve would eventually use him as material to create a monster."

With eight heads, eight tails, and eight legs, this is proof that the remains of eight sea gods have come together.

In comparison, Tian Wu may have become the last survivor of this cruel practice of raising Gu poison simply because he had cultivated some "Perception Method".

Even so, He had lost His self and was merely acting on instinct.

Whenever the Night-Wandering God gods discover a place that is difficult to conquer, they will send this Tian Wu there.

With power far exceeding that of ordinary gods, he repeatedly defeated the Gods of the Hundred Lands, leaving them utterly powerless to retaliate.

"Although Tian Wu has become a monster, his power is still genuine."

Looking at Tian Wu displaying his divine power in the [Diagram of Mountains, Rivers, and the Land], Xiluo licked her paws with a hint of restlessness.

"Should I go stop Him? It'll be a piece of cake for me to beat Him!"

Xiluo wasn't bragging.

Since her Primordial Spirit Manifestation, she has had no weaknesses.

To deal with a Heavenly Deity who has completely lost his reason, and who has also revealed his weakness of "only attacking hostile targets".

Xiluo dealt with the opponent with ease, if not effortlessly; in fact, without any pressure at all.

"Have you forgotten what I told you before? This was just bait."

With a slightly exasperated look, Li Boyang rolled his eyes. He knew this silly cat didn't like to use its brain.

"Think about it, why would the God of the South Sea throw Tian Wu out?"

What is His purpose? And who is His true target?

Blinking, Xiluo asked blankly.

Who is His target?

This time, Xiluo wasn't truly foolish; she genuinely couldn't guess the South Sea God's purpose.

The battle has continued until now, and the God of the South Sea has not even shown his face once. Instead, his sixteen Night-Wandering God have been performing his duties.

Needless to say, those South Sea gods who took advantage of the situation to cause trouble were even worse.

They are at best taking advantage of the chaos, and they will automatically back down if they encounter any resistance.

This was the first time the God of the South Sea had shown such initiative, Xiluo naturally couldn't guess his purpose for the time being.

"His purpose, of course, is to attract our attention..."

"Ideally, we could also lure powerful combat units like yourself over there."

Seeing this, Li Boyang had no choice but to abandon his idea of getting Xiluo to use her brain and directly stated his deduction.

"And they took the opportunity to disrupt our support operations, allowing the tides to completely engulf the Hundred Lands Mountain Range."

"The Chiru, who was in charge of liaison for the entire operation, is most likely their target this time."

Just as Li Boyang had guessed, not long after Tian Wu appeared.

Taking advantage of the chaos, the Guitong and the Wumian went upstream.

Following the trail of a Human-Faced Fish, they tried to find the Chiru hiding behind the scenes.

After observing for so long, the Guitong noticed that these Human-Faced Fish would migrate back to their burrows every so often.

Now is the time for this Human-Faced Fish to migrate back.

If you follow it, you will surely find the place where these Human-Faced Fish rest, and their god must also exist in that place.

As for why the Guitong and the Wumian were able to so easily deceive the guards along the way?

This is thanks to Wumian's special ability— the Myriad Transformations.

Each of the sixteen Night-Wandering God possesses unique abilities, characteristics bestowed upon them from the moment of their birth.

Wumian's abilities are somewhat similar to Deception Rabbit's Thousand Transformations Divine Ability, but they are not exactly the same.

The first is the similarity of the changes.

After being developed by Li Boyang, the Thousand Transformations Divine Ability has long since shed its original limitations, allowing the Deception Rabbit to transform into any creature at will.

Whether he had seen this creature before or not, it did not affect the changes in the Deception Rabbit.

In contrast, the ability of Wumian requires a fixed template and cannot be changed arbitrarily.

Correspondingly, the Wumian One ' transformations are almost flawless, and they can even acquire the abilities and memories of the transformed individuals to a certain extent.

This ability and memory, including Law Technique Divine Ability, is something that Deception Rabbit could never achieve at this stage.

Secondly, there's the versatility of this change.

Deception Rabbit can only change himself, but Wumian can change the sixteen Night-Wandering God along with him.

No learning threshold is required; as long as the Wumian is willing, He can transform even Guitong into Human-Faced Fish.

For example, right now, they are flowing back against the current, just like ordinary Human-Faced Fish.

Even if the Chiru saw them now, it would be impossible for it to distinguish them from ordinary Human-Faced Fish.

Glug glug...

Just as the Guitong and the Wumian were imitating the movements of the other Human-Faced Fish, floating to the surface and blowing bubbles with great pleasure.

The once calm water surface suddenly began to ripple.

This ripple appeared out of nowhere, yet it expanded rapidly at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

This is a warning method used by the Human-Faced Fish, and the Guitong and the Wumian naturally received this signal as well.

But before they could realize what this signal meant...

The nearby Human-Faced Fish had already dove back into the water with lightning speed.

The Human-Faced Fish did not discover the disguise of the Guitong and the Wumian; they simply chose to believe the signal.

Only a true Human-Faced Fish would know that this signal came from the Great Arbiter of Fate.

This is precisely the information that the Guitong and the Wumian, no matter how much they disguise and simulate, cannot obtain.
