Chapter 386

Most importantly.

The black-robed swordsman offered them an irresistible reward!

As long as they help the black-robed swordsman capture Sheng Cheng.

Each of them could obtain the opportunity to be promoted to Martial Emperor!

In the face of such generous rewards.

The lives of these Chong Yuan world natives are not even a comparable stake.

"What's the point of wasting words with this bunch of trash?"

Another Martial King who had participated in the journey to the Academy of Learning Divine Hall wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said coldly,

"Sometimes the gap between people is even greater than that between a person and a pig!"

Before Gu Han saved their lives, they still had grudges against each other.

However, after entering the Chong Yuan world, they all unanimously stood on humanity's side, fighting against the Black Tide monsters.

Trusting those who are also human is almost an unquestionable choice.

Even if Feng Yue Shan never trusted them, they never wavered in their resolve.

Even if given a hundred chances to choose, they could never possibly stand on the Black Tide's side.

Help the black-robed swordsman, and assimilate all of humanity into Black Tide monsters!

To them, this is a choice that goes against human nature, and they could never compromise!

Since they have decided to stand on Sheng Cheng's side, even if they must sacrifice their lives, they will absolutely not retreat!

"Everyone, you've worked hard!"

However, just as a dozen or so Martial Kings were preparing to fight to the death, a clear voice suddenly rang out on the field.

Immediately afterwards, countless golden threads flew out from Sheng Cheng, weaving all the Martial Kings on the Black Tide's side into them.

Dozens of Martial Kings were still preparing to welcome the joy of victory a moment ago, but now they all turned pale.

The golden threads blotted out the sky and almost blocked all their directions of movement.

Moreover, they felt a terrifying sharpness from these omnipresent golden threads.

These golden threads may not look impressive, but they were certain that once the threads passed through their bodies...

Their bodies would surely be torn apart, unable to withstand even an instant!

Clad in splendid robes, Feng Yue Shan arrived atop the City Gate of Sheng Cheng under the protection of the Weaver Maiden woven from golden threads.

"All Doom Heirs, if you act recklessly again, you bear the consequences of life and death."

A casually spoken sentence caused all the Martial Kings on the Black Tide's side present to turn pale.

Feng Yue Shan's words clearly confirmed their suspicions.

For a moment, the Martial Kings on the Black Tide's side were left in a dilemma, unable to advance or retreat.

On the other side, the moon splendor unleashed by the black-robed swordsman at this moment shattered the Spirit Power Compass jointly built by Feng Qingchen and the God of Reason.

Feng Qingchen spat out several bolts of blood, and his face turned dark.

Even saying his face is as pale as gold paper cannot describe how dire his condition is now.

Feng Qingchen gazed at Feng Yue Shan high above in the distance, giving a self-mocking bitter smile.

"I never expected that in the end we would still have to wait for this woman to come to the rescue."

The voice of the God of Reason echoed in Feng Qingchen's ears,

"You are both Savior Heirs; why must you make your relationship so stiff?"

"With this opportunity, your relationship could ease a bit, so it doesn't have to stay like this."

Hearing the God of Reason speak so easily, Feng Qingchen let out a cold snort,

"You don't understand anything, so just shut up."

"As a mighty God of Reason, you can't even deal with a mere black-robed swordsman, and yet you still have the nerve to call yourself a deity?"

The other deities are almost all crippled, not in their prime.

For example, the Gate Path God fell a thousand years ago.

No one knows why the Gate Path God fell, only that it ultimately left behind only a Gate Path Fire Seed.

The country where An Jianan resides has always worshipped the Gate Path God.

The Holy Maiden of that country is also the sole emissary closest to the Gate Path God.

To maintain control over the Holy Maiden's lineage, the country has always forbidden the Holy Maiden from going out freely.

Even the Holy Maiden's marriage partner is decided by the Council of Elders!

It is said that An Jianan still does not know who her father is even to this day!

In order to prosper further, the country used An Jianan's mother—that is, the previous priest—as a sacrifice, attempting to communicate with the Gate Path God and beseech the deities for a divine edict.

Her mother's death also earned the motherland a Gate Path Fire Seed.

An Jianan's mother died in the rite, leaving only the then seven- or eight-year-old An Jianan to survive in the world, inheriting the position of Holy Maiden.

At that time, An Jianan still did not know that her mother had died.

Her mother only said that she had to leave in order to find a way to deal with the Black Tide.

Only after An Jianan gradually grew up did she understand what had actually happened.

Later, An Jianan alone seized the Fire Seed from the Holy Hall.

It is said that after passing the Gate Path Demigod's trial, An Jianan manifested as myriad Gate Path Envoys.

She traveled throughout the human world, all for the purpose of finding a way to save the world.

However, in the eyes of the country where she was born, An Jianan is undoubtedly a thief!

Under the pursuit and killing of the motherland and the Black Tide, An Jiannan lost nearly a thousand incarnations.

As a Saintess, she had never practiced martial arts; even ordinary soldiers were no match for her.

Before An Jianan mastered the Gate Path ability, she could only rely on her physical body for resistance.

By the death of a clone, she sought survival for her true body.

But no one knows which of An Jianan's myriad clones is her true body.

Only An Jianan herself knows all of this.

Only later did An Jianan finally rally a group of people who shared her savior ideal.

Only then did she escape the nightmare of being hunted day and night by her homeland.

Feng Yue Shan was the second Savior Heir that An Jianan found.

With An Jianan's help, Feng Yue Shan chanced upon the God of Romance who wandered the mortal world.

The God of Romance examined emotions throughout the mortal world, and was ultimately moved by Feng Yue Shan's desire for romance.

After Feng Yue Shan passed the trial set by the God of Romance, the God of Romance voluntarily became a fire seed, wishing for Feng Yue Shan to ascend to the Demigod of Romance.

This is the origin of the two great demigods known to all.

Compared to the Gate Path God and the God of Romance,

Even if the God of Reason is not at its peak, it is clearly in better condition than the other two gods.

But Feng Qingchen never expected that, under the blessing of the gods, he would actually be inferior to a black-robed swordsman!

This completely fell short of Feng Qingchen's previous understanding of the gods.

At least the God of Reason's ability is far weaker than he imagined.

Even though the God of Reason is not a warlike deity, it should not be this feeble.

"What do you know?"

The God of Reason said lightly,

"If it weren't for your fleshly body being too weak, unable to display my divine power, how could I not be a match for that black-robed swordsman?"

"If so, please, honored god, leave my body and do battle with that black-robed swordsman!"

Feng Qingchen snorted derisively; though his words were respectful, the God of Reason could clearly hear the hostility in them.

"My fleshly body has long since decayed; leaving your fleshly body, I cannot continue to fight."
