Chapter 68: This Is My Territory!

At the same time, on the Jingyang Mountain Path.

With the tremor of the earth veins, a far more powerful force seized control of the wind and rain from the Howling Sky Clan.

Any storm attempting to breach the Hundred Earth Mountains turned into a gentle breeze and drizzle, soft as spring rain nourishing the soil without a sound.

This sudden change directly caused the battlefield situation to become unstable.

Boom!

Seizing the moment the Howling Sky Clan was stunned, the old grandmother at the very center of the battlefield suddenly exerted her power.

The Lightning-Channeling Tree, which had been nearly withered, began to grow abnormally once more.

A streak of emerald green light, bright enough to blind everyone, surged forth from the old grandmother's body.

That streak of emerald green light tore through the old grandmother's body.

Yet it formed a majestic, solemn female half-body figure in mid-air.

That was the true form of the Spring Goddess, Nu Man, her divine soul imprisoned within this flesh and blood vessel.

"I said, this is my territory!"

Her eyes suddenly burst with divine light, and Nu Man's voice at this moment was louder than Lei Ting.

Ten thousand roots surged from the earth in that instant, joining the lightning summoned by the Lightning-Channeling Tree to bombard the Howling Sky Clan in mid-air.

Boom-boom-boom...

In a flash, the clouds were forcibly blasted apart, and the storm turned to nothingness.

And those who suffered even more than the Howling Sky Clan were the Ghost Rong Clan members who had repeatedly charged the old grandmother.

They had barely survived the clash between the two deities.

Yet at the very last moment, they perished completely for gazing directly upon the true form of a deity.

Zzzzz...

Their flesh turned to wood, their bodies into plants.

Countless "vegetables" in various postures with twisted faces suddenly appeared all over the battlefield.

Even those mountain-dwelling slaves protected by Nu Man.

Many were accidentally injured by her and died miserably in a war that did not belong to them.

For a moment, grief and wailing mingled together, echoing to the heavens.

【Foolish!】

Just then, the Howling Sky Clan reformed once more and finally spoke its first words since its appearance.

The old grandmother was not an avatar of Nu Man, but the cage imprisoning her.

Therefore, when Nu Man recklessly shattered this cage and forcibly manifested her true form, it also meant her life had reached its end.

"This is not foolishness; I call it a choice."

Looking up coldly at the sky, Nu Man's tone had never been more resolute than at this moment.

"A thousand years ago, when you shrank back in fear before that witch, I dared to stand up and oppose her."

"A thousand years later, when you attempt to invade my territory, my choice will not change."

This unreasonable tyranny of Nu Man was the fundamental character that distinguished her from other Spring Goddesses and even other deities.

【I will return again, and you will no longer have that chance.】

No longer locking eyes with Nu Man, the massive face in the sky slowly turned and aimed toward the direction of Feilai Peak.

Boom!

In an instant, an invisible clash made the earth tremble.

The power of the storm turned into substance at this moment, forcibly interrupting the flow of the earth's dragon veins.

This almost unimaginable attack technique had already surpassed the understanding of the vast majority of deities.

【I have remembered you, Red-Haired Ghost!】

At Feilai Peak, upon the altar.

"Pah!"

A mouthful of fresh blood spat out directly, and the red hair atop his head burned fiercely like flames.

Li Li Boyang felt a flash before his eyes and lost control over the earth's dragon veins.

Crack... crack... crack...

Following Li Li Boyang's spitting of blood, the collapse of the altar followed immediately.

The five-colored stones originally embedded in the altar exploded one by one, rendering the Prophetic Talisman inscribed on the altar completely useless.

At a glance, the only thing that could remain intact at the scene.

Was perhaps the yellow silk in Li Li Boyang's hand bearing the drawn Energy Talisman.

"Are you alright?"

Xi Luo jumped onto the altar immediately, using her back to support the falling Li Li Boyang.

"Cough... cough..."

After coughing with difficulty, a faint smile appeared on Li Li Boyang's slightly pale face.

"I'd like to say I'm fine; do you believe me?"

Xi Luo also curled her lips and retorted in response.

"Seeing that you still have the energy to joke, I suppose you aren't in too bad a shape."

Hearing the tacit understanding in their dialogue, E Tu, who had only dared to approach at this moment, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"So... you really dispersed the storm formed by the Howling Sky Clan?"

As she spoke these words, E Tu deliberately stretched her neck, gazing far into the distance.

At the boundary between the Hundred Earths Mountain Range and the outside world.

The originally pitch-black, surging Lei Ting storm was dispersing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a few breaths of the Breathing Technique, bright sunlight once again shone upon the earth.

Witnessing this scene, whether those who knew the truth or those who did not, humans or gods alike, all let out a long sigh in unison.

"Where is that old woman? How is she now?"

Moments later, E Tu suddenly remembered her original purpose, turned back with a tense expression, and looked at Li Li Boyang.

However, Li Li Boyang merely gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and did not answer the other's question immediately.

"She must be dead by now!"

Seeing this, E Tu had already realized something and said in a despondent tone.

"I knew that old fellow liked to show off; now she has finally played herself to death, hasn't she?"

"If you lack the ability, do not step forward; the Hundred Earths Mountain Range is not short of powerful beings, so why force an old woman like you to the front lines..."

"And what about the Earth God you have served so diligently all these days?"

"You worked so hard to find believers for Him and cultivate priests for Him, yet He truly does not care about you at all?"

"I knew it; you should have gone out and explored with me instead; why did you insist on settling in this broken place?"

"I could easily find a place for you to be enshrined, which would be better than being a..."

Seeing E Tu's endless chatter and her increasingly low spirits, Li Li Boyang finally spoke up to interrupt the other's words.

"First, it was not I who dispersed the Howling Heaven Clan!"

Suppressing the instinct to cough again, Li Li Boyang leaned against Xi Luo and struggled to stand up once more.

"In this battle, I was merely a factor influencing the final outcome, but not the decisive factor."

Li Li Boyang has always disliked Seeking Credit, and this time was no exception.

The Spring Goddess Nu Man was the main force that ultimately crushed the Howling Heaven Clan.

At best, Li Li Boyang was merely the final straw that broke the camel's back at the critical moment.

"Second, whether the old woman is dead or not depends entirely on how you look at it."

Gazing at the bewildered E Tu, Li Li Boyang first sighed deeply, then took out the Bone Armor of Destiny to divine.

"The old woman we both know is dead; her body now remains on the battlefield of the Jingyang Mountain Path."

"But the Spring Goddess Nu Man is not so easily killed, though she probably will not hold out much longer..."
