Chapter 662: Chapter 529: Devas Wrestling, Vajra Body Appears_2
Soma flew out again, slicing through the sky, and hurtled toward the distance.
"Roar!"
Little Elephant God Vinayaka growled, abruptly turning his head.
His trunk lifted and waved through the air, bringing forth a whirlwind that whistled toward Wind God Vayu.
"Not good!"
Vayu screamed in alarm and immediately turned to flee.
He was surrounded by billowing violent winds that formed a vortex around him, like a rotating wheel, shielding him as if he were a speeding chariot, heading off into the distance.
But as fast as Vayu was, the Little Elephant God was faster.
The thick trunk pierced through the whirlwind, and in the blink of an eye, it had coiled itself around Vayu’s waist.
"We must act now!"
Sun God Surya called out loudly.
He brought his hands together, and a mass of sunlight instantly gathered between them, transforming into a beam of light that shot toward the trunk.
Fire God Agni moved as well, unleashing fierce flames.
Together, their combined forces caused the trunk to writh in pain, wildly flailing in the air, and with it, Wind God Vayu also tumbled uncontrollably.
At this moment, the wild winds were churning, the massive trunk sweeping across, and a colossal water twister rose, pulling up everything from the Miscellaneous Grove Garden, breaking trees and branches, and lifting the lake water, sending it all skyward.
In that instant, a golden column of light burst into existence.
As the golden radiance dispersed, it revealed a robust, towering figure clad in silver-blue armor, from which a soft glow emanated, calm as the deep sea, swallowing the surrounding gale.
Water God Varuna stood in the heavens, his presence majestic, as he pointed his hand toward the Devas.
"Do not fear, I have come to aid you!"
Varuna shouted.
The Devas abruptly looked up to see this luminous figure.
"Varuna!"
"He has returned from the waters!"
"Such an imposing stance!"
The Devas exclaimed in awe.
Water God Varuna raised his right hand, and in his grip appeared a glittering golden lasso, which he spun and hurled forth with great force.
Whoosh!
The Water God Lasso suddenly tightened around the trunk, and with a fierce pull, it was drawn taut.
The lasso and trunk tangled, battling in the air.
Roar!
Little Elephant God Vinayaka shook his head, muscles upon the trunk undulating like the Thousand-headed Serpent King Shesha roiling in the Milk Sea, pulling the lasso taut, as if about to drag it away.
But now was no longer then.
"Feel this endless strength!"
Varuna bellowed.
He gripped the lasso with both hands, and immediately, bursts of golden light began to sparkle along its length, shooting out like sharp blades.
In the Western Waters, this lasso had already ensnared many Asuras, gaining formidable strength.
Whoosh!
In an instant, the lasso shone with golden light, as if the shadows of numerous Asuras were converging into form.
These Asuras joined hands, chanting ancient hymns.
"He is the ocean, mysterious and vast!"
"And like the rising sun, he ascends freely!"
"Creatures look up to him, in awe and praise!"
"His divine feet shimmer with a unique light!"
The assembled shadows of the Asuras offered their worship.
Pulling on the lasso, Varuna took two steps forward, and the ground beneath him immediately emanated ripples of water light, reflecting mystical footprints.
The footprints, like a line, divided the waters from the heavens.
At this moment, celestial light radiated from Varuna’s body, and the other end of the lasso wrapped around Little Elephant God Vinayaka, who was instantly enveloped by countless streams of water light, coiling around his entire body.
Whoosh!
With a mighty heave, Varuna tugged with divine strength.
Instantly, the Little Elephant God was pulled toward him.
"!!!"
The Devas were both shocked and delighted.
"What formidable strength!" Sun God Surya’s radiance flickered, amazed by the immense power, and his heart skipped a beat.
"Yes!"
"This Water God Lasso is too powerful!"
Fire God Agni’s eyes burned with fervor as he muttered to himself.
Wind God Vayu also shook his head, pondering, "It’s not just the lasso, but also the power of the God of Directions!"
"So strong!"
Moon God Soma looked on enviously.
Blinking his eyes, he felt a longing within.
There weren’t just one direction, but currently, only Indra and Varuna held positions among the Gods of Directions. Surely one of the remaining spots had to be his!
"One day, I too shall possess the power of a direction!"
Moon God Soma murmured in his heart.
At this time, Varuna was like a fisherman hauling in his net. Under the power of the Water God Lasso, the Little Elephant God was slowly dragged toward him.
Argh!!!
The Little Elephant God Vinayaka let out a low growl.
His trunk danced wildly, his hands flailing, and bursts of scarlet light surged continuously, exploding out from within him.
Boom!
A red blaze burst forth from Vinayaka’s body.
That auspicious vermillion light became intensely warm, fiercely savage, and wildly brutal, bringing utter destruction in its wake.
At that moment, Vinayaka seemed as if possessed by Sindura.
He raised his hands with a fierce motion.
Crash! Crash! Crash!
Streams of Water Divine Power instantly dissolved, evaporated by the crimson light, leaving behind only the lasso.
The lasso tightened, forming a single line!
Witnessing this scene, the Devas sighed repeatedly.
"This Divine Power Rope is really powerful, to actually struggle against Vinayaka!"
"Yes! Varuna’s lasso holds extraordinary Divine Power, and it’s also imbued with the force of directions, originally bestowed upon Varuna by the Heavenly Emperor!"
"I wish for it too!"
"Right, last time Narayana entrusted the Heavenly Emperor with the power to choose the God of Directions, so next time it should be the Heavenly Emperor’s turn to choose."
The Devas chattered among themselves.
As they spoke, they all brightened up, showing excited anticipation.
Upon reflection, they too could have a chance at obtaining this potent force.
After all...
Besides the East and West, there remained vacancies in the South, North, Northeast, Northwest, Southeast, and Southwest—a total of six positions.
Amid the excitement of the Devas,
Water God Varuna was sweating profusely.
His powerful arm muscles tensed, the robust muscles bulging prominently, Divine Power erupting throughout his body and driving the Water God Lasso.
He could feel it.
The opponent’s strength was increasing by the moment, and he was slowly being pulled forward.
Swoosh!
Water God Varuna suddenly looked up.
There the Little Elephant God stood, holding the lasso in both hands, with his trunk slowly rotating behind him, winding the lasso around it, loop by loop, and pulling Varuna towards him.
"Come aid me!"
"I can barely hold on!"
Varuna exclaimed in alarm.
He was also struggling to restrain this furious Little Elephant God.
At his words, the Devas were taken aback; they quickly looked up and saw Varuna sliding toward the Little Elephant God, faster and faster, as if about to be flung into the air.
Amid the shock, a low and deep voice resounded once more.
"I am here to help you!"
Bang!
A large figure suddenly appeared beside Varuna, his hand grasping Varuna’s shoulder, stopping the motion of being flung away in an instant.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The Devas focused their eyes in surprise at the person who appeared so abruptly.
The man had a rugged face, a determined gaze, bare chest, exposing a muscular and sturdy body.
In his left hand, he held three celestial blue Divine Power Ropes, as though holding balloons, with three Asuras floating in mid-air, tethered to them, while his right hand was firmly placed on Varuna’s shoulder.
Seeing this, the Devas couldn’t help but cry out in amazement.
"Asura!"
"Vajra Body Asura!"
"How did he come here?"
The Devas were astonished.
Vajra Body Asura gave a slight smile.
"The Heavenly Emperor asked me to come to the Heavenly Realm; I will watch over these three ’grandsons’ here!"
Vajra Body Asura said with a smile.
Hearing this, Varuna breathed a sigh of relief.
"Praise to the Heavenly Emperor!"
"Vajra Body, I salute you!"
Varuna said.
Sun God Surya blinked his eyes in delight, "Indra, did he go to find you? No wonder I couldn’t see him; what perfect timing!"
Wind God Vayu and Fire God Agni glanced at each other.
They could not help but smile.
"Even when the Heavenly Emperor is absent, he is still working for the Heavenly Realm!"
Wind God Vayu lamented.
"Yes!"
Fire God Agni nodded his head.
Hearing this conversation, Vajra Body expressed deep agreement, speaking with great respect.
"That’s right!"
Vajra Body Asura nodded as well.
The next moment, he turned to the Little Elephant God and took action. The Little Elephant God’s entire body moved with it, being dragged along.
"I will deal with him!"
