Chapter 501 - 258: All-Purpose
"Boom!!!"
Divine flame rebounded, waves of fire raged, and Venerable Jinglian flipped outwards, with golden Buddha blood spurting fiercely.
Divine Dao cultivation, achieving the third rank, allows one to transform yin into yang, returning to a physical body, and Venerable Jinglian is no exception. At this moment, golden Buddha blood is spraying out, each drop formed from the essence of divine power, and now as it flows out, the damage is evident.
"How could this be!?"
The Daoist and Confucian Venerables rushed forward to help, catching the severely injured Venerable Jinglian.
"Heaven-Overturning Seal!"
Jinling Prefect also acted, once again using the City God’s Heaven-Overturning Seal, aggressively striking at Shen Hex.
"Celestial Heart Five Thunders!"
Shen Hex’s expression remained unchanged as he urged the Five Thunders True Method, wielding the ultimate destructive power, facing the Heaven-Overturning Divine Seal.
"Boom!!!"
Extreme techniques collided, shaking heaven and earth. Amidst the thunderous noise, the golden seal flipped back, dissipating much of the earthy Qi, with bolts of lightning intertwining, the rebound force wrapped around the City God’s Divine Seal, heavily striking Jinling Prefect.
"Puff!!!"
Jinling Prefect’s eyes turned grim, summoning divine power to catch the golden seal, only to be rebounded, spraying a mass of blood, his body staggering a few steps back. A Standard Third Grade God also suffered heavy damage.
"How is this possible!?"
Seeing this scene, not only others but even the Weishui River Dragon Monarch was shocked, incredulously looking at Shen Hex, then turning to the void, as if suspecting something went wrong in this Ghostly Demon Realm.
Indeed suspicious!
This Song Xiang is just Fourth Grade. Although having absolute defense built by the Merit Golden Body, it’s just defense.
The Power of Merit cannot attack, so his offensive means do not exceed limits too much, just barely equaling those Third-Rank Great Gods based on some unknown strong foundation.
So, what is going on now?
How could he injure Jinling Prefect?
The Merit Golden Body has been broken, and within this Ghostly Realm, without home-ground advantage, what allows him to wound someone like Jinling Prefect, a Third-Rank Great God?
Where did it go wrong?
Could it be this Lanruo Ghost Realm went wrong?
Weishui River Dragon Monarch had such doubts but quickly overturned them.
Lanruo Old Demon has been entrenched here for years, already having transformed this Lanruo Ghost Realm into a Dao Field, cultivating it daily with the Power of Yin and Yang. Every grass, tree, sand, and stone within is under its control, even those Third-Rank Gods like him and Jinling Prefect cannot intervene, how could a Fourth Grade like Song Xiang usurp power?
Yet if no power of heaven and earth was usurped, how did his combat power skyrocket?
What exactly is happening?
Weishui River Dragon Monarch was in shock but still stepped forward to take on the battlefield.
Shen Hex said nothing, just raised both hands, each urging a saber and sword move, then combining Immortal Demon styles.
Suddenly...
"Boom!!!"
Demon Saber Dao Sword, Daoist Sword Demon Saber, from life to death, from death to life, two extremely opposing forces were born from the palms, converging within, faintly brewing a transcendent limit-breaking power of the Great Dao, causing the Six Great Ghost Gods to be alarmed, their hearts giving rise to a sense of crisis.
"Cannot let him gain momentum!"
Weishui River Dragon Monarch hurriedly attacked, a Cyan Dragon appeared with a pearl, carrying the power of rivers, lakes, and seas towards the opponent.
The uninjured Daoist and Confucian Gods and that Lanruo Old Demon quickly followed up, each showcasing divine techniques intending to intercept.
"Heaven-Overturning Earth-Piercing Seal!"
Even the retreating Jinling Prefect, enduring the wounded body, reactivated the cracked City God’s Heaven-Overturning Seal for a full-force attack.
It can be said that other than the severely injured Buddha body of Venerable Jinglian, the other Five Great Ghost Gods gave their all.
However, Shen Hex completely disregarded this, operating the ultimate sword and saber form, combining the Immortal Demon Extreme Technique, with echoing countless voices in ear and mind, resounding the prayers and wishes of all beings.
What Weishui River Dragon Monarch thought was not wrong. He, having built an absolutely strong foundation, with a Fourth Grade body achieving the "Heavenly Mirror Country Guardian King" position, not inferior to such a Standard Third Grade Great God like Jinling and Weishui. But only not inferior.
According to usual logic, battling these two Gods, at most he could equalize, not even occupy a slight advantage, let alone injure them.
But the problem is he is not within usual logic.
God of All Things!
Professional Power!
Although having changed professions for years, this is the first time Shen Hex used the professional power of God of All Things in combat.
God of All Things: Reward virtue, punish evil, uphold righteous law, you are the God of Righteous Law and the Punisher of Evil, commanding land, mountains, rivers, culture, martial arts, virtue, vice, life, death, and all realms, thus the people proclaim you as God of All Things, everywhere and responsive, can gain massive professional experience through wish fulfillment, incense fire will power greatly enhancing the effect of divine authority, unaffected by the negative impacts of incense fire will power, can expend professional experience to craft exclusive professional items—the All-Purpose Divine Arrival Map.
...
This profession has two major features, one is being unaffected by the negative impacts of incense fire will power, the other is greatly enhancing the effect of divine authority through incense fire will power.
What Shen Hex relies on now is the latter!
Yes, this Lanruo Ghost Realm, cultivated by that old demon for years, impermeable even to needles, water can hardly enter, even for Standard Third Grade Gods, it’s impossible to seize the power of heaven and earth from its hands to enhance oneself.
But Shen Hex now is not taking the power of heaven and earth but... the authority of Human Dao.
God of All Things, incense fire prayers, transformed into authority!
This professional effect is unrestricted by location, only influenced by wish power, having somewhat the function of a "wish machine." As long as there are enough people praying and wishing in faith, corresponding authority and power will be bestowed upon him.
That is how it is now, in Jinyang Prefecture, widely celebrating, a grand ritual for the City God. With his years of management and guidance, people worship him as the City God, Land God, Merit God, God of Righteous Law, God of Destruction and Creation.
