Chapter 324 - 281 Only He Is God!
Ninur leaned against the sky full of fierce flames, staring at the Forest God Lipo atop a huge canopy, and couldn’t help but find this god, who governed the Secret Forest, laughable.
Among the gods of the Celestial Kingdom, there was a gap between gods, and a hierarchy among divine powers, each rank signifying a nearly insurmountable boundary.
And as the Fire God, Ninur was a Fourth Rank divine, while Forest God Lipo was merely a Third Rank god.
The gap between Fourth and Third Rank was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Forest God Lipo desperately spurred the growth of the great trees, covering the burning canopy with layers of timber, ceaselessly allowing thousands of trees to perish and be reborn in an attempt to extinguish the wildfire.
Fire God Ninur spoke no more. Since the Forest God had decided to appear before him, intent on preventing his punishment of Seleucus, and he had long been determined to defy the order established by Divine King Shan En, then he might as well, right here, settle both new grudges and old.
He exhaled, and the sea of fire under his feet instantly exploded, burning ever more fiercely. The entire sky lit up, dazzlingly bright and white, as the scorching air gathered into a heatwave, sweeping through every corner of the Royal Capital, the walls of its streets glowing red-hot, nearly melting onto the ground.
The great trees crackled in the fire, their sounds resembling mournful wails.
Forest God Lipo kept exerting his divine power, forcing the giant trees under his feet to grow desperately towards the sky. Branches and leaves sprouted continually to bury the burning areas, resisting the heavy sea of flames.
Fire God disdained any concern for this, for no matter how hard the Forest God tried, it was all in vain. The constantly growing, overlapping might of the giant trees could never withstand the burning of the flames.
Ninur’s divine power surged massively, flames billowing like waves, one after another smacking down upon the divine forest at his feet, the fire burning fiercely, turning those great trees into its own fuel.
