Chapter 11

Glaring at the half-orc corpse before him, he said coldly:

"Who did this?"

Orc Yimen, the tribe's strongest warrior, still bleeding, gritted his teeth:

"Elder! We found other half-orcs on the other side of the thicket!"

"They killed Aigen!"

"They outnumbered us—we were only two, we couldn't fight them!"

Though they were Rank 2, the enemy were only Rank 1.

But—

They outnumbered us by more than tenfold; two fists could not match four hands.

And the enemy—

Wore the same divine-gifted battle armor and wielded divine-gifted battle axes as we did!

The other half-orcs erupted in fury:

"Kill! Avenge Aigen!"

Pope Huo Ge slammed his staff down hard: "The glory of our god shall not be defiled!"

"They killed our god's faithful—they must be punished!"

"But on their corpses, I sensed the aura of false god worshippers."

"Those evil half-orcs are followers of a false god!"

"This matter—"

"We must report it to Lei Ting, and act solely by our god's divine decree!"

Saying this,

he knelt facing the ancestral shrine, with a grave expression.

Behind him,

all the half-orcs knelt, prostrating themselves fully.

"Great Lei Ting, your glory shall not be defiled—let your faithful become your sword, cleaving through thorns and brambles…"

Pope Huo Ge intoned fervently.

"Great Lei Ting, your glory shall not be defiled…"

All the half-orcs prayed with fanatic fervor.

…

Dazed and disoriented.

He did not know how much time had passed.

Li Yue suddenly opened his eyes.

Thunderous divine light blazed forth, unceasing.

His expression grew grave.

Sensing the prayers of the Gushu half-orcs.

"Another half-orc tribe?"

"A deity's aura?"

"So soon—must the divine war begin already…"

A hint of tension crossed his face.

But also anticipation.

Divine war.

Always the most blood-pumping.

Always the most rewarding.

With his fifty-four remaining Rank 2 elite half-orc followers,

and his own cultivation having reached the First Transformation Semi-God level,

shouldn't this be quite impressive in this million-li wilderness?

A million-li wilderness is vast.

But this is Semi-God territory.

True deities cannot appear here.

Moreover,

the deities here

are mostly those from other planets who arrived on the Immortal Continent not long after our Earth did…

Boom—

The Gushu half-orc tribe

suddenly erupted in a dense roar of thunder.

Vast divine power spread everywhere.

Li Yue's commanding voice filled the heavens and earth:

"Initiate the divine war."

Pope Huo Ge's face burned with fanaticism: "As our god decrees!"

Saying this,

he leapt to his feet.

Facing all the half-beasts, he raised his staff high.

He roared:

"Believers of our God, awaken the Divine War!"

"Awaken the Divine War!"

All the half-beasts roared.

They showed not a trace of fear.

Instead, they burned with fanaticism and excitement.

To fight for the God was their glory!

In the Divine Realm.

Li Yue waved his hand.

He elevated Pope Huo Ge's Rank 1 Palm Lightning and Rank 1 Thunder Vitality.

To Rank 2.

And—

He bestowed another divine art.

Rank 2 Bloodlust Art!

This was the difference between a First-Transformation Half-God and an ordinary Half-God.

An ordinary Half-God.

Could grant only two Rank 1 divine arts to shamans or priests.

But a First-Transformation Half-God.

Could grant three Rank 2 divine arts to shamans or priests!

"Warriors, march to battle!"

Pope Huo Ge felt the change within himself.

His faith grew more fervent; his roars thundered like thunder!
