Chapter 354: I Love Divine Punishment the Most!

In the sky, at the same moment, more than twenty red beams descended in dense formation.

Inside each of these red beams was the most terrifying divine power attack!

Any single beam striking the army would cause massive casualties!

The energy of the beams could even blast a crater over five hundred meters in diameter into the ground!

Thinking about it, how many warriors were in this area?

If these were human warriors, this area could hold tens of thousands.

Even if they were beastfolk warriors, this area held at least several thousand!

But its killing range was far more than five hundred meters.

When the divine power inside the beams exploded, it could instantly vaporize large numbers of warriors clad in heavy armor.

Without exaggeration, even the first tentative divine punishment alone could inflict thousands of casualties on the beastfolk army!

And now, there were exactly twenty such divine punishments!

Each divine punishment contained an astonishing amount of divine power!

If all twenty divine punishments struck, they could directly kill over a hundred thousand beastfolk soldiers!

Whether they were Lionfolk warriors, Bearfolk warriors, or Centaur warriors, none could withstand them!

Even their heavy armor was useless!

In other words, this single divine punishment, brewed by the god of the Hilin Kingdom, could kill over a hundred thousand beastfolk soldiers!

Of course, once the beastfolk army scattered afterward, the killing power of the divine punishment would no longer be this terrifying!

But if the first strike could cause nearly half the casualties, that was already terrifying enough!

This, then, was the most terrifying divine punishment of the Hilin Kingdom's god!

This, also, was what made a god so fearsome.

Of course, this divine punishment consumed an extraordinary amount of divine power from the Hilin Kingdom's god.

Each divine punishment he summoned contained perhaps only one or two hundred drops of divine power.

But do not forget—he summoned this divine punishment from the Heavenly Realm.

When divine punishment descends from the Heavenly Realm, he loses over ninety percent of his power.

The stronger the power, the greater the loss; his massive deployment here meant he lost over ninety-five percent!

In other words, for each beam he summoned, he had to expend several thousand drops of divine power.

And now, there were exactly twenty beams here!

That required over fifty thousand drops of divine power!

For a god, especially a god who had lost a divine war, this was a massive depletion.

Calculating by Lin Yan's virtual divine rank:

Excluding the Night Elves, Lin Yan's Yan Kingdom, with just over two million people, generated over ten million units of faith daily, equivalent to 100 drops of divine power.

Over fifty thousand drops of divine power would take five hundred and some days—nearly a year and a half!

Although the Hilin Kingdom had twenty million people, many of its commoners were not devout, and the faith contributed by these twenty million humans might not even match that given to Lin Yan by the two million beastfolk of Yan Kingdom.

Moreover, Lin Yan's virtual divine rank exchanged ten thousand units of faith for one drop of divine power.

It was uncertain whether this god could even reach that ratio.

In other words, this god's daily income might well be less than Lin Yan's.

Besides, Lin Yan still had the Night Elves.

Divine power was extremely precious.

Otherwise, why would the Abyss Demon God agonize over just ten drops of divine power?

And the Hilin Kingdom's god had just lost a divine war, so his divine power must have been heavily depleted—likely over half gone.

Moreover, the Hilin Kingdom's god had held the entire kingdom's faith for barely a hundred years.

Calculated by time, this god had accumulated a century's worth of divine power in Hilin Kingdom, lost most of it in the divine war, and now likely had only ten to twenty years' worth left.

And now, in this attack, he spent a year and a half's worth of divine power!

That was one-tenth of his remaining divine power!

For a god, this was an enormous expenditure!

Unless pushed to the brink, no god would ever make such a sacrifice.

Especially when seeing his power, after descending onto the Continent of Gods, lost ninety-five percent—equivalent to a mere five percent discount—it was truly agonizing!

"I don't believe you can block it!"

In Wang Cheng, the king, possessed by the god's consciousness, snorted.

His gaze remained fixed on the sky, watching the clash of the two forces.

Then he saw that when the red beams descended, the flames suddenly surged upward!

Originally, the flames were no thicker than a few meters, their height barely a few meters.

But now, the flames shot up hundreds of meters high, instantly surrounding all twenty red beams.

"Boom!"

In the sky, the flames' sudden expansion produced the sound of air being burned into vacuum—shattering.

These shattering sounds came one after another, strung together like thunder, incredibly shocking!

"Impossible!"

The god's consciousness inside the king suddenly cried out in disbelief.

Because he saw that the twenty red beams, brimming with divine power, were being rapidly consumed by the flames!

The red beams moved at incredible speed—even as they burned fiercely in the fire, they still pressed forward, piercing through the sea of flames toward the ground.

It looked as if twenty blazing giant pillars had crashed down.
