Chapter 902: Chapter 197: Ashen Empire’s Emperor_2
Upon thinking of this, Gush raised his Blood Spear, pointing it at the Red Dragon, and said solemnly, “Red Dragon, do you realize the kind of being you have provoked?”
Cassius did not reply but looked down from above at the divine incarnation before him, tilting his head to signal that he was listening attentively.
Seeing the opponent completely unafraid, a trace of barely concealed anger appeared in Gush’s single eye.
“Standing before you is the Great Beastman God! Stop your blasphemy at once!
If you are willing to submit to —I might spare your life and grant you the honor of becoming my mount!”
Cassius glanced sideways at this Beastman God, sensing the unparalleled fluctuations of divine power, and suddenly broke into a grin. “Gush, I actually have a more reasonable proposal.
How about the Beastn becoming my Retainers? The Empire will provide ample benefits for your people, and you will beco the leader of the Retainers, kneeling before —that will be your honor as well.”
“Blaspher! You are courting death!”
In an instant, furious flas burned fiercely within Gush’s single eye!
His mighty fra trembled, and divine power-level strength erupted completely. A violent storm swept across the land, scarlet divine power enveloping dozens of miles of space and including the Red Dragon as well.
Gush wielded the Blood Spear, soaring into the sky amidst rolling black clouds to confront the distant Red Dragon.
anwhile, Cassius narrowed his eyes slightly, observing the Beastman God’s incarnation.
The Heaven’s Calamity Dragon Eye, True Vision Eye, and various Divination Spells were cast one after another, yet under the obstruction of divine power and suppression of divine status, these chaotic techniques all failed. Cassius could only see a blurry, sinister single eye.
Only a comprehensive assessnt by the system could barely take effect.
[One-eyed God – Gush (Incarnation of Divine Power)]
Challenge Level: 38
This was his first ti facing an incarnation of such a level of divine power. The previous Du Masong was only an incarnation of moderate divine power and hadn’t exerted its full strength, while the Justice Saints were rely projections of divine power.
Now, Cassius was truly, in every sense of the word, about to confront a deity.
Gush’s incarnation was only six ters tall, sharing the physical dependency of this material plane with Solo, making it seem quite insignificant compared to Cassius.
Yet the Beastman God’s divinity imbued this incarnation with boundless strength, undying immortality, the ability to distort reality, divine power fields, the essence of slaughter, and many other extraordinary traits.
—As the incarnation of great divine power, this form of Gush was even stronger than most demigods!
“A fitting embodint of a Great Divine Power deity’s incarnation…”
Cassius licked his lips, his pale golden vertical pupils revealing a hint of excitent. Ecstatic, he roared, “Old Greenskin! It’s you who’s seeking death!
Our Ashen Empire avenged you, exterminating your Dwarf enemies at your doorstep, yet you shalessly co barging in here, wanting to seize my territory? Truly disgraceful!”
Gush said in a grave tone, “Red Dragon, Aivendel is not your domain; it’s the land I bestowed upon the Beastn!”
“Bestowed?”
Cassius mockingly retorted, “A city built by Dwarfs, occupied by them for thousands of years—when did it beco the Beastman’s land? By what? By your re words of ‘bestowing’? What an absolute joke!
In that case, I bestow the Nishak Kingdom to my Retainers, Old Greenskin. Will you let us have your Divine Realm too?”
Since it was already an irreconcilable feud, there was no point in worrying about offending the deity any further.
The Red Dragon flapped his wings, releasing an overwhelming wave of Dragon’s Might, and the power of the Imperial Region instantly poured out, causing the surrounding blood-colored divine power field to shatter abruptly.
A massive spherical space ford in the skies, with the Red Dragon’s domain colliding with Gush’s divine field, neutralizing each other, and generating destructive currents at their intersection, annihilating everything, ripping through matter, twisting even the fabric of space.
From afar, Cassius resembled a glowing celestial body, radiating light and heat in the high skies, enveloping everything around him—including Flying Dragon City.
“Mortal, you’ve made the gravest mistake of your life—that is to oppose ! To oppose the Beastman race!
Soon, you will kneel weeping at my feet, begging for rcy!” Gush’s voice swelled with indignation, fury, and carried the aura of divine power.
Suddenly, countless Imperial People—including Cassius—had horrifying visions of mountains of corpses, oceans of blood, Flying Dragon City reduced to ruins, with the One-eyed Beastman sneering coldly at them.
The weaker-minded Imperial People, overwheld by such a ntal shock, collapsed lifelessly, so even dying of sheer terror.
This was truly the might of the divine!
The so-called “Words Beco Reality” was no re exaggeration; under the amplification of divine power, a re utterance could cause death.
“Oh, playing tricks like this? Do you think you’re the only one capable?”
Cassius looked down upon the nurous Beastn. An imperceptible glimr of light flashed across his golden vertical pupils—the True Dragon Sorcerer’s power distorted reality!
In an instant, the Beastn saw horrifying phantoms take shape—a scarlet giant dragon, larger than mountains and spanning thousands of ters, spewing an endless sea of flas, burning the Beastn to ashes.
“Father God above!”
“No, no, this isn’t real! But why does the fla truly scorch my body!?”
Once the illusion was believed to be real, those subjected to the Spell Image would also sustain real-world damage—for instance, being incinerated by flas into nothingness.
This was Cassius’s self-created Seventh Tier Spell, inspired by [Tiamat’s Terrifying Illusion]—[Cassius’s Terrifying Phantom].
However, Gush remained unmoved, speaking coldly, “Pointless trickery. Any Beastman deceived by such illusions is unworthy of being my people.”
Cassius ascended higher on his wings, taunting as he went, “Precisely, which is why all your people on the Fianso Continent have been nearly exterminated by !
Tsk tsk, flaunting your divine status before my Empire’s weapons—your people are pathetic as ants, effortlessly massacred by my Retainers.”
“You will die a more wretched death!” Gush’s face grew more twisted, pursuing the Red Dragon with unimaginable speed.
Cassius’s words undoubtedly struck a nerve. In just a few days, millions of Beastn had perished on the Material Plane!
Though most of those green-skin Beastn had shallow faith, their deaths still provided a significant loss of belief energy for the Beastman God—not to ntion the strength of the race directly impacts the power of its Racial God.
Even for Gush, who commanded nearly all Beastn across the Multiverse, this was no trivial matter.
If not for the incomplete opening of the Material Plane, Gush would’ve descended in his true form and torn this Red Dragon into shards.
High in the skies, the Beastman deity and the giant dragon chased each other relentlessly, teleporting through space over and over, nearly tearing the heavens into tattered fragnts.
3. Divine Fire: Divine Fire is the self-generative source of divine power, a tool to convert Faith into divine energy. It is the cornerstone of a deity’s existence, a hallmark of their status upon igniting Divine Fire. If divine power is akin to electricity, Divine Fire is the power station. Those who possess Divine Fire but lack Divine Status are called quasi-gods, relatively easier to ascend to godhood. Conversely, those with Divine Status but without ignited Divine Fire—known as demigods—face greater difficulty, as igniting Divine Fire is perilous and hard to achieve.
4. Divine Status: Divine Status asures the total amount of divine power as well as the level of divine evolution.
5. Divine Position: Divine Position reflects the specific scope of a deity’s power and serves as the source of its strength, closely tied to the attributes of the deity and its believers. Divine Position is typically interlinked with Divine Status, acting as its derivative elent. Deities with the sa Divine Position but lesser scale divine power tend to rge consciously or unconsciously. In cases of equal divine power, typically, only one deity with a particular Divine Position exists. Even if temporarily coexisting, conflict is inevitable, with the victor gaining ultimate control of the Divine Position and the loser losing it entirely.
