Chapter 271: A Spike In Wealth, A True God lee
A dozen or so figures floated in the sky a short distance away from the Beast God Pass. Among them were Behemoths, Fox-n, Tiger-n, Lion-n, Taurens...
There was a strong, forceful aura around every one of them, and they gave off vast, majestic divine power—evidently, they were all half-deities.
That’s right, they were half-deities of the Beast People Empire. They were currently here at the Beast God Pass in hopes that they could aid the empire’s army in eliminating the threat of the demon invasion.
However, all of them had beco rather hesitant as they watched the hundreds of Demon Overlords that had suddenly co charging out.
With that many half-deity-level Demon Overlords there, wouldn’t they just be throwing their lives away in vain if they also charged toward them?
A Tiger-Man half-deity asked hoarsely, “What should we do?”
The others had only silence as a response. None of them knew how they should answer him.
The Tiger-Man half-deity couldn’t help but turn to a Nine-Tailed Fox-Woman. He said, “Fawkes, you’re the wisest and cleverest among us. Hurry and think of sothing!”
The other half-deities also turned to the Nine-Tailed Fox-Woman, their eyes filled with hope and anticipation.
“The demon army is attacking with a vengeance, and on top of that, there are even several hundred half-deities among them. Even if we were to fight them, it would be no different from us fighting a hopeless battle.”
The Nine-Tailed Fox-Woman let out a faint sigh and said, “Besides, I can also sense an intimidating aura coming from the demon army—in other words, there are true god-level presences among them!”
The others couldn’t help but let out an exclamation of shock at her words.
The Nine-Tailed Fox-Woman was a pinnacle-level half-deity that was only a step—establishing a divine nation—short of becoming a true god. The only thing that could possibly intimidate her was a true god!
“Yes, true gods!”
The Nine-Tailed Fox-Woman looked in the direction of the demon army and said, “The demon invasion this ti is definitely much more fearso than what we had initially thought. We are powerless against it.”
Awful looks ca over the other half-deities’ countenances. They asked, “What should we do, then? Surely we can’t just watch helplessly as the empire falls?”
The Nine-Tailed Fox-Woman closed her eyes painfully and replied, “Now that things have co to this, we only have one solution left.”
The half-deities hastily asked, “What is it?”
“Submit to the ng Lei Empire!”
The Nine-Tailed Fox-Woman slowly said, “There are currently two true god-level existences in the ng Lei Empire—Bubbles and ng Lei himself. If we submit, they will take the Beast People under their wing and offer us protection, such that we won’t die out completely.
“Conversely, should we not submit to the ng Lei Empire and allow the demon army to ravage the empire instead, we Beast People will end up disappearing from Heaven’s Vault Continent for eternity.
“To sum it up, we either submit or be destroyed! What do all of you think?”
The Nine-Tailed Fox-Woman gazed at the other half-deities.
“Fawkes is right. The Beast People Empire may cease to exist after we submit to the ng Lei Empire, but we Beast People can still live on. If we don’t, death will be our only way out!”
“I agree. We’ll pick the lesser of two evils. Submission is better than complete destruction.”
After hearing the Nine-Tailed Fox-Woman’s analysis, all the half-deities practically agreed to Fawkes’ suggestion without any hesitation.
Then, they went in the other direction, intending to fly toward the ng Lei Empire to seek aid from ng Lei.
However, it was right at this mont that a dozen or so figures suddenly shot toward them and arrived right above the Beast God Pass. Every one of them gave off vast, majestic divine power and a terrifying aura.
“That’s...”
The Beast People Empire half-deities turned toward them.
The Beast Emperor and the court officials also raised their heads in puzzlent.
At once, looks of astonishnt and puzzlent ca over everyone’s faces.
One of the officials exclaid in a low voice, “Your Majesty, it’s ng Lei and his subordinates!”
The Beast Emperor’s brows drew together into a huge frown as he said, “What have they co here for? Are they here to watch from a safe distance as the Beast People Empire falls? Or are they here to help us?”
The Beast Emperor and the officials were filled with unease at the mont. As adversaries, they really couldn’t quite guess what ng Lei and the others were here for.
To watch the show? Or to help?
Or could it be that they were the ones behind the demon army themselves?
The ones approaching them were indeed ng Lei and the others!
ng Lei knew it was ti for him to make his appearance the instant that the hundreds of Demon Overlords showed up at the Beast God Pass. He couldn’t just allow them to wreak havoc at will.
Otherwise, the one billion-strong army currently occupying the Beast God Pass would definitely be completely wiped out!
“Greetings, Your Holiness ng Lei.”
The Beast People Empire’s dozen or so half-deities flew over and bowed to ng Lei in greeting. They knew that ng Lei and the others had already discovered their presence a long ti ago.
“Are all of you the Beast People Empire’s half-deities?” asked ng Lei as he cast a glance at them.
He had indeed discovered their presence a long ti ago.
“Yes, Your Holiness.”
The Nine-Tailed Fox-Woman bowed and said, “We are willing to lead the Beast People Empire’s people and submit to Your Holiness. I hope Your Holiness can show us compassion and take us in.”
“Submitting only now? What have you been doing all this ti instead?”
Bubbles snorted. “Master’s holy decree has long since spread like wildfire in the entire continent. The Fairy Empire and the Titan Empire have already submitted to us one by one, while the Beast People Empire is the only one that has stayed silent all this ti during the last few months. I had thought that all of you were intending to resist to the very end and would rather choose death over submission!”
“Forgive us, Your Holiness.”
The half-deities pleaded for rcy. “Everything is the result of our muddleheadedness and has nothing to do with the billions of people in the Beast People Empire. If Your Holiness must punish soone, then we’re willing to shoulder it all. We beg only for Your Holiness to save the billions of people in the Beast People Empire. They are innocent!”
“If I didn’t intend to save them, I wouldn’t be showing up here today.”
ng Lei said dispassionately, “The Beast People Empire is already as good as secured, regardless of whether all of you submit to or not. This is a fact that nobody can change!”
“As per Your Holiness’ holy decree!”
All the half-deities bowed one by one.
ng Lei said dispassionately with a wave, “Go! Kill those demons!”
“Yes, Master!”
Bubbles and the others were already raring to go a long ti ago. The mont ng Lei gave the order, all 11 true gods charged right out brazenly as though ferocious beasts that had been freed from cages!
“Hahaha! Die!”
Bubbles threw a punch out. Vast, enormous power surged out of him and instantly caused the air to explode!
Crack!
About ten or so Demon Overlords were blasted into a mist of blood before they could even react. Bits of flesh flew about as blood spurted everywhere, triggering a huge uproar.
“How can that be?”
The remaining Demon Overlords’ countenances changed greatly. Their eyes were filled with shock, horror, and fear as they watched Bubbles. Killing more than ten Demon Overlords with a single punch—that was definitely a level of strength that only a true god could possess!
That wasn’t the end of it, however. While the Demon Overlords were still stunned, Puhaman, Thaniel, Nadja, and the others also attacked one by one.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Several blood-red steel needles shot toward the enemy, piercing through another ten or so Demon Overlords and killing them—the Spider Goddess had been the first to attack!
Howl!
A true god-level Undead Skeletal Dragon appeared in the sky. Its gigantic claw went smacking down, killing a dozen or so Demon Overlords right away.
Puhaman had summoned the Undead Skeletal Dragon!
Howl!
Thaniel sprayed a wave of black dragon breath from his mouth, instantly engulfing a dozen or so Demon Overlords in it.
For a while, each of the 11 true god subordinates displayed their own skills, swallowing up several hundred Demon Overlords in various different attacks.
A few monts later, the several hundred Demon Overlords who had been invading with a fierce montum just a while ago were all dead!
“This, this...”
The Beast People Empire half-deities, the Beast Emperor and officials, as well as the billion-strong army, were all thoroughly stunned at the sight. Every one of them was flabbergasted and dumbstruck.
“Several hundred half-deities... have... all died... just like that?”
“O my Beast God! Since when have half-deities beco that weak?”
“How terrifying! They are truly too terrifying!”
Putting the Beast People Empire’s people’s astoundnt aside for now, ng Lei had also attacked at this point.
His target wasn’t the Demon Overlords, the Demon Lords, or the Great Demon Lords. Rather, it was the endless and infinite demon army and the overwhelming, relentless waves of demons!
“Absolute Zero!”
ng Lei pointed with his finger. A golden chilly air current quietly ford and spread into the surroundings with an explosive boom.
They spread 10,000 miles into the surroundings in an instant and enveloped the whole area.
Crack!
All the demons within the area were instantly frozen, every one of them turning into golden ice statues frozen to the spot, still and motionless.
“Ding! 1 Longhorned Demon killed, 12 Laws of Nature Origin Crystals gained!”
“Ding! 1 Fire Demon killed, 23 Laws of Nature Origin Crystals gained!”
“Ding! 1 Little Demon killed, 1,000,000 gold coins gained!”
“Ding...”
System notifications sounded one after another without pause.
Most of the demons in the army weren’t very strong. Their advantage laid in their sheer, endless numbers instead.
That mont just now had actually brought ng Lei 13,000,000 Laws of Nature Origin Crystals!
,000,000!
Now, that was an extrely large amount of riches!
Going by the rate of 0.1 Laws of Nature Origin Crystal per demon, ng Lei had actually killed 130,000,000 demons just now!
A whole 130,000,000!
Just how excessive were those numbers?
Yet relative to the entire demon army, these 130,000,000 demons were just the tip of the iceberg and not even worth ntioning at all.
“Absolute Zero!”
“Absolute Zero!”
“Absolute Zero!”
ng Lei would never let the demon army off even if he couldn’t profit off them, let alone when they could bring him handso riches and rewards!
All the more he would never let them off!
Clink, clink, clink!
Large expanses of demons were frozen into ice statues one by one. His Wealth values on his stats interface started to climb at an insanely fast speed, increasing by millions.
“Damn it!”
Enraged by ng Lei and his subordinates’ actions, all the Demon Lords in the demon army started to fly toward them with fierce montum.
Among them were Fire Demon Lords bathed in flas, Wind Demon Lords with cyan winds around them, and Ice Demon Lords ford from ice.
At one glance, there were actually as many as 17 of them!
“Lowly, stinky worms, how dare you attack the demon army! You should die for that! All of you!”
The 17 Demon Lords roared furiously in the sky. Their bloodlust-filled eyes bore into ng Lei and his 11 subordinates as murderous intent welled up in them, and demonic aura surged around them.
“They’re finally attacking!”
Bubbles licked his lips. A hint of bloodthirstiness flashed across his eyes as he roared, “Kill them, my brothers!”
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
Puhaman, Thaniel, and the other true gods charged straight toward the Demon Lords.
Boom, boom, boom!
Without a second word, all 28 true gods instantly clashed against one another.
Bubbles clashed with two 100,000-feet-tall Black Fla Fox true gods;
Puhaman, who was riding an Undead Skeletal Dragon, beca entangled in a fight with a 100,000-feet-long Hell Demon Dragon;
Thaniel transford into his 100,000-feet-long Colossal Dragon form and battled fiercely with a Cerberus;
Nadja, Seisia...
They either fought one-on-one or one-on-two!
What was “heavens-destroying and earth-rending”?
This was it!
The clash between 28 true gods was one that was truly “heavens-destroying and earth-rending”. A casual blow could break the void, while a casual punch could break the heavens and split the earth. The aftershocks spreading into the surroundings could kill even Saint Domains, while the ravaging space-ti rifts could rip even half-deities apart!
It was a true doomsday sight!
“Retreat!”
“Hurry and retreat!”
“A battle of this class...”
The Nine-Tailed Fox-Woman and the other Beast People Empire half-deities, the Beast Emperor and court officials, as well as the one billion-strong army, retreated in a panic, lest they beco collateral damage if they were even a mont too slow.
ng Lei naturally didn’t retreat—he was still in the midst of slaughtering the demon army and making money!
“Absolute Zero!”
“Absolute Zero!”
“Absolute Zero!”
Large expanses of ice statues appeared!
Large groups of demons died!
His Wealth increased at a crazy speed!
