Free Web NovelChapter 338: Chapter 334: Divine Incarnation, Deluge of Firepower
Giant Stone City.
Atop the pyramid.
VMMMM!
A crystalline yellow pillar of light pierced the heavens and shook the earth!
"Our Lord!"
"Our Lord has descended!"
Feeling a powerful sense of kinship resonate within their bloodlines, the surviving members of the royal family and the Priests of the Pyramid Divine Hall felt as if they had found their backbone.
They were ecstatic, their eyes brimming with tears of joy!
Regardless of their usual conduct, at this moment, with disaster looming and Giant Stone City on the verge of collapse, the descent of their god’s consciousness to save its followers filled these native leaders with an unparalleled piety, and they began to pray!
"Praise be to our Lord!"
"You are the master of the mountains, the king of the earth..."
Led by the royal family and the Priests, tens of thousands of citizens knelt and prayed in the direction of the pyramid. This was not by force. As the lord of this land, faith in the God of Rock Ridge was deeply rooted in Giant Stone City!
Soon!
Prayers rose and fell like ocean waves, echoing throughout Giant Stone City.
Vmmm.
From every street and alley, specks of white light, like countless fireflies, rose up and converged at the pyramid’s peak!
The power of faith!
A massive amount of faith power, aided by the divine hall’s Orbit, received the descending consciousness of the god!
SHOO!
The immense will descending from the void merged with this power of faith, manifesting as a majestic and sacred face with blurred features!
A Divine Incarnation!
"Outsider..."
"You who have trespassed in my domain shall be executed!"
The divine voice was immense, causing the very void to tremble!
...
On the Ghostly Flood Dragon.
"As expected."
’A divine descent, is it...?’
Gazing toward Giant Stone City, Su Ye’s eyes narrowed slightly.
His expression held a hint of understanding.
The deity worshipped in Giant Stone City, the God of Rock Ridge!
According to their intelligence, this god had not been declared fallen like the Goddess of Fertility.
Therefore, based on analysis and projections, the probability of this god’s incarnation descending during the assault on Giant Stone City was over sixty percent!
Now, that probability had clearly come to pass!
However, this was a good thing.
Because, for the probability to be so high, and for someone as cautious as Su Ye to still dare to come, it meant one thing...
He must have had a contingency plan!
...
At this moment, seeing the divine descent, Su Ye’s face showed no trace of panic.
He was as calm as ever. With a thought from his Divine Sense, he gave a composed command.
"The God of Rock Ridge has descended."
"With the exception of Ziyuan, all personnel are to follow the established plan. Retreat orderly outside the city and proceed to the target location."
The combat power of a Divine Incarnation would be no less than Tier 4.
In a battle of this level, even Crystallized Soul Adepts were insignificant. As for Foundation Establishment cultivators, they were no more than ants who could be wiped out with a single blow!
Furthermore, Giant Stone City’s conventional forces had already been wiped out...
Thus, according to Su Ye’s contingency plan, the moment a god descended, his subordinate cultivators were to retreat immediately to avoid unnecessary losses.
After all, the cost of training these elite cultivators was not low!
SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!
Streaks of Escape Light, having received the order, retreated from the city in an orderly fashion, leaving the battlefield.
Then, Su Ye focused his mind and looked up at the crystalline yellow Divine Incarnation above Giant Stone City, a flash of excitement from the challenge glittering in his eyes!
’Next up... deicide!’
"Jiaojiao, prepare for bombardment!"
"Ziyuan, provide support!"
"Understood!"
...
VMMMM.
On the deck of the Ghostly Flood Dragon, accompanied by the sound of rising machinery, twelve long-barreled cannons, sleek and elegant in design, appeared on both sides of the bow!
"Fire!"
Su Ye ordered with a wave of his hand!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Gang Wind shaped and blood flames condensed!
Extremely destructive Plasma Bombs howled out from the muzzles!
This type of attack, which was highly penetrative and extremely fast, was more efficient against single targets than the Song of Hell!
CHIII!
The Plasma Bombs, traveling at several times the speed of sound, streaked across the sky with a piercing shriek!
The incarnation of the God of Rock Ridge was hit instantly. With a KABOOM, the hyper-condensed, magnificent blood flames exploded like fireworks!
However, this volley of cannon fire proved ineffective.
Vmmm.
The crystalline yellow light flowed!
The majestic face of the god was revealed!
Like a reef in a tsunami, the Divine Incarnation stood firm under the baptism of blood flames, completely unscathed!
’Damage immunity?!’
Su Ye was startled.
Several years ago, when he fought the Eternal Hunter Incarnation, the enemy had opened its Divine Realm. Its performance, which could be described as ’impervious to all techniques,’ had left a deep impression on him!
’Don’t tell me the incarnation of the God of Rock Ridge can also open a Divine Realm... Is it in such good condition?’ Su Ye found this rather troublesome.
Of course, it wasn’t that he was helpless.
Su Ye was quite certain that as long as he activated his two Quasi-Techniques, Heart of the Vast Sea and Monarch of Calamity, to channel the World Primordial Force and manifest the Sea of Deep Blue, then he could surely kill this Divine Incarnation with considerable ease, replicating his feat of slaying the Eternal Hunter Incarnation!
However, Su Ye frowned slightly.
If he had to activate his Quasi-Techniques for a single incarnation of the God of Rock Ridge... then the gains he could reap from this trip to the Far South Continent would likely be far lower than estimated.
’This won’t do...’
’Earning less is the same as losing money...’
Just as Su Ye was pondering, his Divine Sense made a discovery!
’No...’
’It’s not damage immunity, it’s damage transfer!’
After that volley of cannon fire, the accumulated power of faith within the Pyramid Divine Hall at the center of Giant Stone City had been depleted by a full ten percent!
The Rock Ridge incarnation was using this accumulated power of faith as a resource to transfer the damage!
This discovery greatly invigorated Su Ye!
"Continue firing!"
"Maintain suppressive fire! Blast it to bits!"
When it came to a war of attrition, Su Ye feared no one!
Over the past seven years, the Ghostly Flood Dragon’s reserve of living souls had reached as high as thirteen million!
At the same time, Su Ye had also improved the Array, increasing the number of supreme-grade Spirit Stones embedded in the spirit ship to nine!
The ample reserve of living souls, combined with the additional supreme-grade Spirit Stones, made the energy provided by the Soul Abyss Blood Prison seem practically endless!
PENG!
The blossoming blood flames, like fireworks, painted the dark night sky in magnificent colors!
But at this moment, the incarnation of the God of Rock Ridge could not appreciate any of the beauty in this scene. All it felt was a terrifying killing intent!
Vmmm.
Earth Spiritual Qi condensed, and layer upon layer of crystalline yellow Triangular Rock Shields covered the Rock Ridge incarnation.
However, it couldn’t be said that this defense was weak.
But... faced with the terrifying penetrating power of the Plasma Bombs, it was truly... exceptionally average!
CHIII!
Piercing through the rock shields, the Gang Wind warheads once again accurately struck the Rock Ridge incarnation!
The condensed blood flames exploded instantly, causing the surface of its divine body to ripple with chaotic Spiritual Power, like a malfunctioning electronic device!
The facial features, formed from Divine Power, were damaged and incomplete.
The spot where its ’left eye’ should have been was completely engulfed by blood flames, making it look as though it had been disfigured!
The damage... wasn’t severe.
A Divine Incarnation is a pure energy being; its facial features are merely for decoration.
But... the humiliation was off the charts!
Especially since this was happening in Giant Stone City, in front of hundreds of thousands of its followers!
The Rock Ridge incarnation fell into a furious rage!
"Mortal!"
"You deserve to die!"
