Chapter 414: Sky Hunting Marks!
Lin Chao could not remain stationed in Iron Stone City forever.
In order to improve his strength, he might travel across the Continent, Slay gods.
At the same time, to avoid implicating others, he would hide his identity.
And Iron Stone City needed someone to hold it down.
Yuwen Zhanye was a very good choice.
Lin Chao naturally hoped to quickly improve Yuwen Zhanye's strength now.
Moreover, Yuwen Zhanye had indeed made contributions.
Even if he alone cast a Divine Power Cage to deal with two gods, it would not be easy to take them down.
"Many thanks, Master." Yuwen Zhanye felt moved inside.
Lin Chao nodded and also set his gaze upon the god corpse of the God of Fire.
He had yet to absorb the Divinity and Divine Power on this god corpse.
"Begin absorption."
Lin Chao gave the order and began to absorb the Fire Divinity and Divine Power of the God of Fire.
It must be said, the God of Fire was worthy of being a god of Medium Divine Power; the amount of Divinity and Divine Power was quite large, significantly more than Lin Chao's own.
Of course, Lin Chao's power did not rely solely on Divine Power, but also on the Experience Value gained by players Slaying monsters, as well as Lin Chao's experience from his past life.
"Fire Divinity... convert to Civilization Divinity."
After pondering for a while, Lin Chao chose not to cultivate the Fire Divinity as well.
He did not think much of the future of this Divinity.
Thus, he converted this Divinity into Civilization Divinity.
Although about two-thirds was lost, it did not mean much to Lin Chao.
The Divine Power of the God of Fire was completely absorbed by Lin Chao.
His strength advanced another level.
"With my current self, is there hope to reach Medium Divine Power?" Lin Chao pondered.
A realm is a realm, and strength is strength.
Now, the amount of his Divine Power had already far exceeded that of a Medium Divine Power, but his Divinity was still lacking quite a bit.
After all, the number of his believers was still too few.
About half an hour later, Lin Chao opened his eyes.
He had finished absorbing.
He looked around; Yuwen Zhanye was still absorbing.
At this moment, sensing something, Lin Chao's figure vanished instantly.
Appearing once more, he was back inside the carriage.
He looked at the waking Taohua and asked, "How is it?"
Taohua was also somewhat apprehensive, but remembering the leader's instructions, she still gathered her courage and asked, "Your Excellency, before this, may I ask you a few questions?"
"No problem."
"What is Your Excellency's identity?" Taohua looked at Lin Chao's face, carefully observing Lin Chao's facial expression. "If it is inconvenient for Your Excellency to answer, I will change the question.
Your Excellency... belongs to which god faction?"
Taohua naturally hoped to know the other party's identity.
Only then would it be easier to cooperate.
However, Lin Chao was too mysterious, and Taohua did not hold out hope for knowing Lin Chao's true identity, so she settled for the next best thing.
"I have no faction." Lin Chao answered truthfully, but thinking of something, he said, "If it counts, I barely count as being in the Ice Empress faction.
Of course... they might not necessarily know me."
Lin Chao already knew that his father in this life was of the Ice Empress faction.
"Ice Empress?" Taohua silently noted this name, and she looked up at Lin Chao. "If our organization cooperates with Your Excellency, we will bypass gods of the Ice Empress faction."
"No problem." Lin Chao did not refuse.
Currently, the ones with the greatest conflict with him were mostly gods of the Light Master faction.
Taohua continued, "Since Your Excellency is a god, we are all just Ordinary Legendary beings.
For the sake of safety, we cannot take Your Excellency to our organization's headquarters.
Can Your Excellency accept that I will be the one to contact you for subsequent cooperation?"
"Mm."
"The last question: if god retaliation is triggered due to helping Your Excellency, our organization hopes that in such a situation, Your Excellency can step in to help."
"No problem as long as it is within my power."
Hearing this, Taohua did not feel surprised.
Letting a god die for them was simply impossible.
This agreement was full of risks for them, but benefits always coexist with risks.
"Very well, Your Excellency, our organization is now officially cooperating with you.
We will provide Your Excellency with some location information on gods.
As compensation, Your Excellency needs to help us take action once."
A look of joy appeared on Taohua's face.
With this mysterious god present, their organization's plan had a few more points of certainty.
After all, Lin Chao was capable of Slaying gods of Medium Divine Power.
On the current Continent, this deity is likely invincible.
Of course, if other Strong Divine Power deities fall later, it will be different.
But deities with Strong Divine Power are, after all, few in number.
"This is the agreement; please leave a wisp of your Divine Power mark, Excellency," Taohua said, taking out a spell scroll.
Lin Chao left a wisp of Divine Power mark, which landed on the spell scroll.
The cooperation agreement was thus successfully signed.
……
Within the God Kingdom, the Rules were like air currents, darting about chaotically.
The entire God Kingdom was in a state of vibration, teetering on the edge of collapse.
The God of Sky sat upright on the God Throne, the Strong Divine Power belonging to the sky flowing from his body, resisting the upheaval.
As a deity with Strong Divine Power, the God of Sky could still hold on.
Within his God Kingdom, there were a total of hundreds of millions of subjects.
Among them, there were many divine servants similar to seraphs.
At this moment, under the control of the God of Sky, all the subjects and divine servants were pious in their attitude, chanting the doctrine.
Following the chanting, their souls gradually became ethereal, merging into the Divine Power of the God of Sky to resist the fall of the God Kingdom.
Every breath, a massive number of souls were annihilated.
This kind of annihilation was irreversible and thorough; they would never recover.
Yet, for the sake of the God of Sky they believed in, these believers were all fanatical, without any intention of resistance.
Suddenly, a wisp of surprise flashed in the hollow eyes of the God of Sky: "The God of Fire... has fallen."
The God of Fire was one who pledged allegiance to him.
The strength of the God of Fire was not great, so after the upheaval occurred, he was among the first batch to fall onto the God Continent.
Now that he suddenly sensed the God of Fire had fallen, how could the God of Sky not be shocked, and even feel some anger?
To beat a dog, one must look at its master; this was a slight to his face.
He also felt some doubt in his heart.
The God of Fire had the Ancient God's Finger he bestowed; his current strength could be considered top-tier on the God Continent, and it was almost impossible for anyone to Slay him.
"Who exactly is it?"
The God of Sky felt that the development of events had exceeded his expectations.
Especially since the Ancient God's Finger was not that simple.
That finger bone concerned the plan of the Master of Light.
"The Divine Power of the God of Fire must have been merged by that person; the Ancient God's Finger... cannot be lost."
This matter was of great importance.
In the eyes of the God of Sky, dense killing intent surged.
At least for now, the matter of the Ancient God's Finger could not be exposed.
Moreover, he needed to take the Ancient God's Finger back.
The God of Sky narrowed his eyes; he looked up, watching the constantly falling deities.
He suddenly reached out his hand, and in an instant, one-tenth of the souls of the believers chanting the doctrine were extracted.
He prepared to unleash Divine Power to investigate the location of the Ancient God's Finger.
As he was now, resisting the fall of the God Kingdom, the Divine Power on his body was consumed bit by bit.
To conserve Divine Power, he used the Divine Power transformed from the souls of ten million believers to begin calculating the whereabouts of the Ancient God's Finger.
Over ten million believers perished, turning into pure Divine Power, and began to calculate the whereabouts of the Ancient God's Finger.
At the same time, in Pingkang City, Lin Chao's heart tightened.
He sensed a trace of prying aura.
He felt as if facing a formidable enemy and sent a sound transmission into the ears of Yuwen Zhanye, who was still refining Divine Power.
"After refining the Divine Power, return to Iron Stone City quickly; I have something to attend to outside."
Lin Chao felt a powerful warning sign.
Yuwen Zhanye opened his eyes at this moment, a look of worry appearing in them: "Master, could it be..."
Yuwen Zhanye was no fool.
Killing the God of Fire would certainly attract the attention of some powerful deities.
"Yes, I will leave first to draw them away.
During this time, I will not return to Iron Stone City; help me look after Iron Stone City!" Lin Chao remained calm.
"As you command." Yuwen Zhanye did not hesitate; he understood that a deity of that level was not someone he could deal with.
Lin Chao glanced at Yuwen Zhanye, and his figure vanished in an instant.
At the same time, in the God Kingdom, a sharp edge radiated from the hollow eyes of the God of Sky.
"East Desert Dead Sea?"
It took about a quarter of an hour for him to sense the opponent's location, which was in the East Desert Dead Sea.
The Eastern Desert is located to the east of the God Demon Continent and is a desert stretching for hundreds of thousands of miles.
At the end of the desert lies the legendary Ancient Tang Empire.
And within the Eastern Desert, there is a silent sea area.
This was very strange.
This sea area was very special, and there were no living beings inside it.
If ordinary people reach here, they will be plagued by illness and subsequently die.
Adventurers who come here will also fall.
Therefore, the Dead Sea has become a dead zone.
Within the depths of the sea, no living beings exist.
At this moment, the gaze of the God of Sky was cast upon the East Desert Dead Sea.
His eyes carried killing intent: "Die!"
To Slay the God of Fire and disrupt the plan of the Master of Light, he naturally had to execute him and take back the Finger of the Ancient God!
The God of Sky struck at this moment, attacking from the God Kingdom toward the human world.
Following the attack of the God of Sky, the souls of half the believers in the God Kingdom instantly turned to ash, transformed into Divine Power, and entered the body of the God of Sky.
Fifty million believers completely vanished, surging forth and transforming into a massive amount of Divine Power.
The remaining believers, seeing this scene, felt no fear; instead, their eyes revealed a fanatical look.
It was as if they envied those believers who had died for the god.
The Divine Power transformed from fifty million believers turned into a powerful strike from the God of Sky.
Sky Hunting Mark!
The God of Sky unleashed one of his most powerful Divine Arts of offense.
This Divine Art had the strongest offensive power and could not be evaded; one could only take it head-on.
Instantly, on the God Continent, anyone under the eastern Heavenly Vault could see a huge crack split open in the sky.
A golden long arrow shot out from the crack.
The place it flew toward was precisely the East Desert Dead Sea.
The ordinary people on the God Continent had no reaction at all.
Only a few gods perceived something at this moment and looked up at the sky.
All the gods had looks of shock or excitement in their eyes.
"The God of Sky has struck!"
"Sky Hunting Mark!"
"Is he taking action against a Strong Divine Power?"
"The East? The Ancient Tang Empire?"
All the gods were shaken.
After all, they did not know how many ages it had been since they had seen a god with Strong Divine Power take action.
Within the East Desert Dead Sea, Lin Chao's gaze was incomparably calm; he looked at the crack in the Heavenly Vault and the golden flying arrow, a strong fighting spirit surging in his eyes.
"Strong Divine Power... truly powerful."
To him in his past life, a Strong Divine Power was not worth mentioning at all.
But to him now, it definitely counted as a formidable enemy.
Moreover, within that Divine Art, Lin Chao sensed countless souls.
This strike seemed to have consumed tens of millions of souls to be unleashed.
Lin Chao did not flee again; he had already been locked onto by the Sky Hunting Mark.
Taking it head-on here would not harm the innocent.
Lin Chao watched that attack, his Divine Power surging throughout his body.
He knew that a god with Strong Divine Power was not something he could deal with at his current level.
He did not know what the consequences of taking this strike would be.
Lin Chao looked up and saw the entire desert plated with a layer of gold.
The water in the Dead Sea also turned gold.
The giant golden arrow, using the Heavenly Vault as a bow, shot toward Lin Chao.
In an instant.
The sky collapsed and the earth cracked, dust flew, and the seawater surged backward.
The water of the entire Dead Sea boiled at that moment, surged backward, and instantly turned into water mist.
All the sand was also overturned at this moment.
Lin Chao stood within the Dead Sea, his divine body radiating a terrifying aura.
The golden bow and arrow pierced through his chest.
The Divine Power on his body flowed continuously, resisting the Sky Hunting Mark.
At this time, Lin Chao was at an absolute disadvantage.
Although Lin Chao could easily Slay the God of Fire, he had, after all, just entered the God Realm.
No matter how strong his technique was, he could not resist power where a quantitative change caused a qualitative change.
Being able to take it was already proof that Lin Chao's technique was powerful enough.
Moreover, the Divine Power of the God of Fire had not yet been fully and truly melted, so his strength increase was limited.
Dealing with the God of Sky was still beyond his reach.
And at this moment, in the God Kingdom, a look of surprise flashed in the eyes of the God of Sky.
"He actually took a strike?"
The Sky Hunting Mark he unleashed by consuming fifty million believers was even stronger than the Sky Hunting Mark he normally unleashed.
This kind of attack could even injure a god with Strong Divine Power.
The opponent, surprisingly, did not die.
The Finger of the Ancient God was not retrieved either.
The God of the Sky cast a glance at the believers in the God Kingdom, his eyes devoid of emotion.
With a wave of his hand, the remaining believers instantly turned into ashes, condensing into a powerful Sky Hunting Mark!
Suddenly, a rift was torn open once more above the Heavenly Vault, and a golden arrow shot toward the East Desert Dead Sea again.
The gods who noticed this scene were all incomparably shocked.
Eyun Xiaojie's eyes were solemn: "Who is the God of the Sky attacking?
He didn't manage to kill them the first time, and now he is unleashing a second strike!"
An Qian also looked curious, a smile hanging on her face: "The script seems to be getting more and more chaotic, but that makes it even more interesting.
I wonder which little cutie helped this lady draw the wrath of the God of the Sky.
The God of the Sky has used his Divine Art twice; his God Kingdom must be... I shall give him a helping hand."
A look of triumph appeared in An Qian's eyes, and her figure dissipated.
Meanwhile, Lin Chao looked at the long arrow flying toward him again, his eyes solemn.
However, he felt no fear; he still stepped forward, welcoming this terrifying strike.
In an instant, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked.
Below Lin Chao, there was a ten-thousand-foot black hole.
