Chapter 468: Chapter 165: Slaying the Great Revered One! Another Skill Upgrade! (10,000-word Mega Chapter - Please Subscribe)_5
Xing Fengzi had never seen such a terrifying sight before, and his mind was struggling to analyze it all.
He found it hard to imagine...
Just what level of Daoist cultivation did Daoist Fan Wu possess to be able to stand against such an Evil God, and battle to the point where everything before him was so severely damaged?
In Xing Fengzi’s eyes.
The Evil God, heralded as a Deity General, was the most horrifying being he had ever seen, from childhood to adulthood. The other’s terrifying aura was such that when it swept over him, it didn’t even allow Xing Fengzi’s heart to harbor any thoughts of resistance!
Although it may sound embarrassing to say, the truth was that at that moment, he genuinely had no thought of resisting.
Especially when he was engulfed by the Great Revered One’s aura, Xing Fengzi’s heart was filled with thoughts of death.
Because he felt that against such an Evil God,
he was certainly doomed!
However... the way things turned out seemed to differ from what he had imagined.
In the end,
it was Daoist Priest Fan.
Too powerful!
While Xing Fengzi was still stunned, the voice of Yun Jiuqing beside him pulled him back from his daze. He heard Yun Jiuqing laugh and say, "This is why I am calmer than you, because I am very clear that such a so-called rural Evil God cannot push Daoist Priest Fan into a desperate situation."
Xing Fengzi was speechless, not knowing how to respond. He finally understood why Yun Scholar was more composed than he was.
It was because Yun Scholar had special trust in Daoist Fan Wu!
And Daoist Fan Wu...
truly lived up to her trust.
Yun Jiuqing continued, "My worries just now were actually not about Daoist Priest Fan. I know he is powerful and doesn’t need my concern. On the contrary, I feel that when Daoist Priest Fan is battling the Great Revered One... he might even need to be concerned about our safety."
"After all, Daoist Priest Fan seems to vaguely refrain from bringing the Great Revered One this way. When he battles the opponent, he seems to intentionally or unintentionally lead the opponent towards a more distant direction."
Xing Fengzi suddenly understood because, upon careful reflection, he noticed that things did seem to be that way.
However... Xing Fengzi finally spoke up, his tone filled with astonishment, "So what Yun Scholar is worried about..."
"My worry is that being so close, we might get accidentally caught in the crossfire, and then we’d be gone," Yun Jiuqing replied frankly, sharing her genuine inner thoughts.
Xing Fengzi was even more astonished, but he could not find any fault with Yun Jiuqing’s statement.
The only thing that might be nitpicking was—is their location really that close to where Daoist Fan Wu and the Evil God were battling? Weren’t they separated by several miles?
Er...
Xing Fengzi looked at the nearby broken ground and the cracks on the surface, and he fell silent.
It seemed very close!
The mere aftermath of both parties’ battle was able to reach such a far distance, perhaps it was only because they were lucky that they hadn’t been affected too much by the residual effects.
Hiss!
Could it be that he, Xing Fengzi, had just skirted the gates of death once again? A frequent visitor to death’s doorstep.
...
Meanwhile, at the distant Jie Zun River, a group of the Great Revered One’s followers were dumbstruck, staring at the distant skyline, where they felt they had witnessed countless miracles!
They had just seen various lights twinkling in the distance.
At the same time, they could hear thunderous booms.
They also felt a gentle breeze blowing towards them from that direction.
This frightened them so much that they dared not continue with their tasks.
Each one was dumbfounded.
Each one was at a loss for words.
"It seems... it seems to have quieted down?" One of the Great Revered One’s followers knelt on the ground, their voice trembling, "Could it be because we accidentally damaged Great Revered One’s statue, and the Great Revered One descended a miracle to warn us?"
"No, that’s not possible, right?" A fanatic follower of the Great Revered One hurriedly shook his head in denial, "The Great Revered One, so compassionate and merciful above all, how could He care about such trivial matters with us mortals?"
Someone weakly said, "Well, maybe there was just thunder in the distance?"
"Have you ever seen thunder make such a commotion? This must be a divine sign descended by the gods and bodhisattvas!!"
"What should we do now? Should we continue to build the temple for Fengfeng Great Revered?"
"This... this kind of matter should be decided by the Village Chief, right?"
"Village Chief, what do you think? Village Chief?!"
"Village Chief? Village Chief?!"
"..."
Even though a group of people called out to him, the elder referred to as the Village Chief couldn’t utter a single word at that moment. His face showed sheer terror, and he could feel each charm etched onto his body emitting a scorching heat.
The twisted charms on his skin were drawn by a Divine Envoy of the Great Revered One... The elder remembered clearly to this day what the mana-infused Divine Envoy had told him.
——If the charms on his body suddenly felt a burning sensation, it meant that they would lose the protection of the Great Revered One.
——There would be no need to destroy any bridges, build any temples, or change any rivers anymore, as it would have become meaningless.
