The Gods of the Five Directions Enter the Fray
Blood Demon was never a match for the Divine Firmament Sword.
Coupled with Li Boyang's forceful verbal attacks and psychological warfare, they quickly fell into a disadvantageous position.
Black Dragon seized the opportunity and turned to leave without a second thought.
Tumultuous!
Relying on its supernatural Divine Ability to Riding Clouds and Driving Mist, the Black Dragon's flight speed, though not as fast as the Divine Firmament Sword, far exceeded that of normal birds.
By the time the people of the Guifang Kingdom below reacted...
The Black Dragon had vanished from their sight, leaving only rolling black clouds as proof of its existence.
However, at this moment, the Blood Demon had no time to care about the Black Dragon.
"Am I... Blood Baleful Intent Ghost?"
Even as the Divine Firmament Sword pierced the Blood Demon's head, it was still struggling with its current identity and status.
Because this is a voice from the heart, a form of communication that transcends language and writing.
Along with the title "Blood Baleful Intent Ghost," Li Boyang's understanding and disdain for this title also entered Blood Demon's mind.
They abandoned their identity as human beings, intertwined with a group of souls filled with resentment and anger, and were born from their blood to become demons.
This special "Guifang Secret Method" is the very foundation of the Guifang Kingdom.
However, this Secret Method is too brutal and distorts perception too much.
Therefore, the non-priest people of the Guifang Kingdom had no idea what this meant.
Although You Chong was once a candidate for priest, he also failed to uncover the truth of the "Guifang Secret Method".
Even in his final moments of self-sacrifice, You Chong remained steadfast in his belief that he was about to become the "ritual vessel" through which the Gods of the Five Directions would reshape the human world.
Do you think you'll become the vessel for a god's incarnation?
No, you're just a collection of vengeful spirits, a freak who doesn't even know what he is!
With the blessing of the Spirit Rhinoceros Horn, Li Boyang's words touched people's hearts, making him the perfect nemesis for monsters like the Blood Demon, whose hearts are full of flaws.
Without a strong mental fortitude and a firm sense of self...
Li Boyang's remarks successfully stirred up the resentment and anger within the Blood Demon, causing its body to collapse uncontrollably.
"I hate Guifang..."
"Don't kill me, I don't want to be a human sacrifice..."
No! My child! He was just born!
"Kill them! I want revenge! I want revenge for the people of this village!"
The Blood Demon, now fragmented, emitted different voices, all of which were the resentment of the Mountain Folk sacrificed by the Guifang Kingdom.
Without You Chong body, the resentment that had been united suddenly resurfaced and turned its attacks on the people of the Guifang Kingdom below.
In an instant, Cliff Settlement City was transformed into a blood-red inferno filled with wailing ghosts and howling wolves.
Although those split individuals did not possess the formidable power of the Blood Demon, they were still far beyond the capabilities of ordinary humans.
Seeing this, the priests of the Guifang Kingdom finally panicked.
The priests, of course, considered themselves superior and never regarded the Mountain Folk outside the Guifang Kingdom as human beings.
However, for their relatives and clansmen living in Cliff Settlement City, they have a strong sense of family affection unique to this era.
"Quickly! Stop them!"
"Take the guards and stop those blood demons immediately!"
Amidst cries of alarm, the priests scrambled down from the altar and rushed toward the location of their loved ones.
In any case, things had developed to this point, and the situation was long beyond the priests' control.
Rather than continuing to watch this epic battle from the sidelines, the best course of action is to hurry home and protect your own people.
This cannot even be called selfishness; it's just human nature.
"Hold head high!"
Unaware of what was happening behind him, the Black Dragon, Riding Clouds and Driving Mist, quickly traversed hundreds of kilometers.
To be honest, the compatibility between the Black Dragon and the Divine Ability ability of [Riding Clouds and Driving Mist] far exceeded the imagination of Li Boyang, the instigator.
With Deception Rabbit's skillful control, the landscape of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range quickly came into view in the Black Dragon's field of vision.
Immediately afterwards, the Divine Firmament Sword, which had successfully slain the Blood Demon, flew back.
Call out!
The speed of the Divine Firmament Sword was far greater than that of the Black Dragon, and it surpassed him in the blink of an eye.
Why are you running so fast?
Slightly confused, Deception Rabbit blinked. Just as the thought flashed through his mind, Li Boyang's voice rang out in his heart.
[Run! Big trouble is coming!]
At this moment, Li Boyang had to multitask and simply didn't have time to explain further.
Fortunately Deception Rabbit and Li Boyang had spent so much time together that they had some understanding of each other.
Without a second thought, it immediately accelerated and charged forward, closely following behind the Divine Firmament Sword.
Rumble...
In the blink of an eye, terrifying dark clouds and storms enveloped the region.
Mountains and rivers began to tremble, streams began to flow backward, and living beings howled and wailed; a silence and chilling atmosphere, like that of the deepest hell, spread rapidly...
Without Li Boyang's reminder, Deception Rabbit knew exactly what had happened.
This is the Gods of the Five Directions themselves personally taking part!
These are the five great gods worshipped by the Guifang Kingdom.
The Gods of the Five Directions are essentially the ghost Ghost God beliefs that the Guifang Kingdom acquired through its invasion and assimilation of other tribes and ethnic groups during its thousand-year conquest.
Apart from the original ancestor of the Guifang Kingdom, the Roaring Heaven Clan.
The other four deities among the Gods of the Five Directions mostly just enjoy the offerings from the Guifang Kingdom.
To put it in terms that ordinary people can understand, it means that apart from the Roaring Heaven Clan, the other four of the Gods of the Five Directions don't really care much about the people of the Guifang Kingdom.
Unless it involves the continuation of one's own faith.
Otherwise, most of the time, the other four deities are merely conceptual manifestations, like natural phenomena, and they will not actively interfere with the affairs within the Guifang Kingdom.
It is obvious that the previous actions of Deception Rabbit and Li Boyang have begun to shake the Guifang Kingdom's belief in the Gods of the Five Directions.
Therefore, the Gods of the Five Directions, who rarely interfered in the affairs of the Guifang Kingdom, collectively took action.
Those natural phenomena beyond storms and thunder are proof of the existence of other gods.
Something must be explained beforehand.
Although the Gods of the Five Directions are named after the Five Directions, they are not the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth in the conventional sense, or any other concept of earth, fire, water, or wind.
Roaring Heaven Clan is the embodiment of the ancestors worshipped by the Guifang Tribe, and the origins and sources of the other four gods are not much different.
Even the concept of the "Gods of the Five Directions" only gradually took shape thirty years ago.
Before the Gods of the Five Directions, the Guifang Kingdom truly worshipped only four deities.
It was only after the great war that destroyed the Tufang Kingdom thirty years ago that the fifth Ghost God was enshrined on the altar by the Guifang Kingdom — the Tufang Clan.
