Chapter 725 -727: Slaying the Gods
Prince Zhao Chang took deep breaths, clearly unable to digest immediately what Zhu Minglang had said, but he was moved nonetheless. He could even imagine the Star Painting that Zhu Minglang described—the description was so detailed, so vivid!
“Is it true that none of us survived??” asked Prince Zhao Chang.
Zhu Minglang and Li Xinghua both nodded.
In the first Realm of Foresight, everyone had died.
Even with the Awakening of the Divine Blood Sword, Zhu Minglang was no match for the Sparrow Wolf God whose Divine Power had fully recovered.
Not a single person had survived.
...
Moreover, it was imaginable that after slaughtering the entire Imperial City, the Sparrow Wolf God would not stop his rampage. He would slaughter Li Chuan, slaughter other forces that had submitted to the Lower God Organization, and he would slaughter everything. Nobody could stop him!
“Alright… alright, I’ll do as you say,” Prince Zhao Chang finally made up his mind.
Zhu Minglang let out a long sigh of relief.
It seemed that the Female Dragon Herder Youhua truly was irreplaceable in Prince Zhao Chang’s heart, even after so many years, reviving some sincerity in his somewhat numb heart.
Otherwise, based solely on King An’s words, Prince Zhao Chang might not have acted according to Zhu Minglang’s instructions.
…
Having returned to Zhu Gate, the night was deep. The Imperial City was still teeming with those terrifying shadows, their cries echoing continuously.
Zhu Minglang went to the Sword Casting Hall, and after obtaining the Jade Blood Sword, he sat on the roof of the Divine Willow Pavilion, quietly waiting for dawn to break.
The morning light gradually spread, first the Divine Oracle Flag appeared, unerringly landing in the Martial Street. Then, the Dragon Country of Clouds emerged!
The massive Cloud Mountain, one after another, stacked on top of each other, hung in the sky above Dripping Water Imperial City, giving an overwhelming sense of oppression!
Emperor Zhao Yuan appeared, his Thirteen Dragons at his feet. He was somewhat puzzled and dissatisfied that Prince Zhao Chang hadn’t exerted his full strength, but to him, it was a battle he could not possibly lose.
What filled his heart even more was anger.
He was furious that Zhu Gate’s strength was so formidable that the Royal Family’s army and champions were easily crushed like children.
He was angry that Zhu Heavenly Officer had been deceiving him all these years, maintaining the stance of a cunning fox, but no matter what methods he used, he could not see his true intentions.
This time, Zhu Heavenly Officer had not taken action against Zhao Yuan.
During the conversation with Zhu Minglang, Zhu Heavenly Officer had also learned of many things.

Standing inside the Divine Willow Pavilion, Zhu Heavenly Officer realized that all of the Royal Family’s offensive moves were just as Zhu Minglang had described the night before, as if they had been rehearsed.
Incredible as it was, Zhu Heavenly Officer faintly sensed that it was due to some kind of Power of God and Mortality that he was unaware of, likely related to the girl accompanying Zhu Minglang.
Emperor Hong Geng flew into the sky with burning wings to meet Emperor Zhao Yuan.
“Five hundred years, he granted me five hundred years of life!”
“The emergence of the New Territory was like granting me a new lease on life. Ridiculous it is, for us cultivators to fight, compete, and struggle under the God Realm, yet in the end, we cannot escape the calamity of life span!”
Emperor Zhao Yuan had completely lost his sanity; he desired something that the entire Supreme Court couldn’t grant, the Spirit Fruit Immortal Medicine that extended life!
Once Zhu Minglang knew what Emperor Zhao Yuan truly desired, he realized there was no cure for such a person and had no intention of trying to persuade him.
Emperor Hong Geng shook his head, finding Zhao Yuan pitifully laughable: “It may be my Star Continent that’s shattered to bits, but the one living in fear and shame is you.”
…
The Sparrow Wolf God, Shang Bai, observed coldly, feeling that something wasn’t quite right.
He turned and gave an order to the Heaven Dust Dragon to unleash the Frost of the Ice Sky, sealing off the entire Imperial City.
Ice peaks continued to plummet toward the earth, and the terrifying sea of clouds, like a massive canopy, burst forth in the Imperial City, enveloping everyone in a mist of ice that sapped the vitality of life.
It was then that Zhu Minglang unsheathed the Sword of God’s Blood.
He sat upon the Divine Willow Pavilion with the sole purpose of ensuring that the Sparrow Wolf God, Shang Bai, would see him sooner.
One after another, the cloud-formed ice peaks fell, and Zhu Minglang took advantage of the White Dragon’s loft into the sky, launching the Sword of the Vermilion Bird at the Sparrow Wolf God, Shang Bai!!
Divine Blood’s fiery blaze, the bright red of the Vermilion Bird, the scorching Sword Qi rapidly vaporized the surrounding frost!
The Sparrow Wolf God, Shang Bai, extended a hand and formed a huge sand dune. The blaze pierced through his sand dune, scorching his dark golden Beast Robe Clothes!
“Your time is up, Sparrow Wolf God!” Zhu Minglang’s skin was covered with Divine Blood Sword Patterns, those radiant inscriptions looking like pieces of armor, enveloping him as if he wore a magnificent suit of battle armor!
“It’s you!! It’s actually you!!!” The eyes of the Sparrow Wolf God turned red in an instant; there was no need to further provoke him. The thought of enduring so many years of humiliating existence in the Lower Realm along with the pain of losing an arm sent the Sparrow Wolf God into a rage.
Although the Sparrow Wolf God was slightly confused, he could not care about that anymore. What was most important was that Zhu Minglang was holding the Divine Blood he had searched so desperately for!
It was the crystallized Divine Blood of the previous generation Sparrow Wolf God, and also the only life-saving remedy for Shang Bai.
With the Divine Blood, he could continue to execute his techniques, turning the entire Supreme Court into his own melting pot; his cultivation base would surge dramatically in a moment, and by then, even the foremost deities of Tianshu wouldn’t dare to criticize him!
Zhu Minglang kept taunting the Sparrow Wolf God, driving him to lose his sanity.
A person of extreme cruelty, especially one on the brink of death, how many can truly remain absolutely calm? Considering Zhu Minglang had experienced the Realm of Foresight twice, he understood that the Sparrow Wolf God was making a desperate move. If he couldn’t get the Divine Blood, he wouldn’t be able to live much longer, and might even gradually lose his Divine Power due to the sandification of his blood.
He, too, had no way out!
Years ago on Spirit Island Mountain, it was just a chance encounter; Zhu Minglang could not stand seeing that man trample life cruelly, so he drew his sword to stop him.
But now, it was a desperate collision with fate. Perhaps for Zhu Minglang, a Divine Chosen, to step into the State of Divine Providence, he was destined to withstand this divine trial. His trial was to kill the extremely evil man he hadn’t slain in the past, whose true identity was a notoriously infamous god of the Tian Shu God Territory!
Zhu Minglang focused on every sword thrust, more attentive to the opponent’s every earth-shaking, sandstorm baptism, but his mind was also filled with the tragic scenes from the Realm of Foresight…
Zhu Minglang knew clearly that they were not dreams.
They were the reality!
If he didn’t personally dispatch the Sparrow Wolf God, all his experiences would come to pass.
The Royal Family and the Azure Dragon Tribe would be annihilated, the loyal soldiers of Zhu Gate would be destroyed, and the Zhu Heavenly Officer would use his last bit of strength to protect him, only to be shattered along with those Demi-god Castings under his gaze…
Deities are so powerful that Zhu Minglang realized his past understanding of Tianshu and the deities was too shallow and thin. Even if someone else took all this for him, even if there was a Prophet by his side, it made Zhu Minglang equally aware of the terrifying power of deities, chilling him to the bone!
Fortunately, he always cherished everything around him.
His life had not been smooth sailing, even falling into rock bottom more than once… but he was never fighting alone!
“What have you done, what have you crushed?!” The Sparrow Wolf God was panic-stricken, his pupils looking as if they were about to emit flames.
Poisonous blood was inhaled into his body, his body began to sandify severely, and he fell into a state of frenzy. He started to control the blood sand particles indiscriminately!
The sand particles had an extreme destructive power. Many people in the Imperial City were still suffering, but such a battle could not ensure everyone’s safety. Zhu Minglang attacked with all his might, each strike leaving a deep mark in the Heavenly Sword, weaving together to unleash a trembling power of sword annihilation!!
“Heavenly Scar Sword!”
Zhu Minglang uttered these three words coldly.
The Sparrow Wolf God was pushed to the brink of fury. He couldn’t understand how his actions and behaviors seemed to be completely seen through. Even if he was a god, who currently only had the power of a Demi-god, he could easily exterminate the entire Supreme Court with his techniques and Divine Skills.
Yet his fate seemed to have been locked up by something!
As a deity, he knew certain things. As he neared death, he was searching for something. He wanted to know who was controlling all this, a powerful existence behind Zhu Minglang making a god suffer such a humiliating defeat. He wanted to know what it was, but he was not an All-knowing God; he couldn’t fathom or comprehend it!
“A soul foul is foul. Becoming a deity can’t change the nature of filthy maggots.”
“If every Star God in the Realm of the Gods is like you, I’d rather have the darkness last forever!”
“If the bright moon and the shining sun also scorn the mortals and deceive the world like you, I will obliterate them together!”
“However many gods there are like this, that many I will slay!!”
Zhu Minglang repeated these words, wanting the Sparrow Wolf God to understand exactly what he was!!
“Zhu Minglang… I will never let you go. If I am to be rendered to dust, all of you will pay the price. I am a god, and to slay a god is to defy the heavens. Heaven itself does not consent, all of you will be buried with me!!” the Sparrow Wolf God roared.
He had too much reluctance in his heart. As a deity, even having lost a part of his Divine Power and divine essence, he shouldn’t die like this!
The blood sand began to spread, as if a vast desert of blood had appeared in the sky!
As the desert descended, every grain of sand held a terrifying destructive force, plunging the entire Imperial City into a stormy purgatory in an instant. The cultivators were as insignificant as chaff, let alone the ordinary civilians of the Imperial City.
“Heaven Dust Dragon, protect the people of the Imperial City!”
Zhu Minglang cried out loudly, wearing a ring on his hand.
This ring was the true Dragon Ring. Before, the Heaven Dust Dragon had released the Frost of the Ice Sky around the Imperial City. Although it brought life to wither, its main purpose was to construct the Ice Mountain Wall to protect the Imperial City!
