Free Web NovelChapter 414: Chapter 414: War Crow Deity _1
"Lord Raven God, you’ve finally revealed yourself!" Sakurada Yoko said, her eyes brimming with hot tears, her expression extremely excited.
As the goddess of the Raven God Temple, this was the first time she had seen the true face of the Raven God.
Her behavior and demeanor were enough to prove she had been brainwashed.
The so-called Raven God was just a giant raven, its body covered in a dense demonic aura, emanating an aura of desolation and death.
Even Shan Shangmu could hardly contain his disdain. His faith was beginning to crumble. He couldn’t fathom that what he had worshiped for so many years was, in fact, a strangely shaped enormous bird.
Only Sakurada Yoko still clung to her faith, crying out, "Lord Raven God, show your divine power and help me dispose of these troublemakers!"
The Dark-Body Raven flew out of the temple, landing atop the massive gates, gazing down at Ye Ming with its mung-bean-sized eyes.
"A person from the Dragon Country? Ha ha, it’s been centuries since I last tasted a person from the Dragon Country. The last time was three hundred years ago when a Dragon Country man who challenged me was devoured whole by me. I still relish that flavor!"
"I didn’t expect to have the chance to savor it again today. My followers, you have brought me a great gift!"
With a whoosh, the Dark-Body Raven spread its wings, summoning a massive whirlwind mixed with dense demonic energy, directing it towards Ye Ming.
What followed was a loud explosion.
Every demon possesses its own magic, and this Dark-Body Raven uses its wings for combat, whipping up a huge whirlwind to attack its enemies.
After witnessing such a shocking scene, Shan Shangmu changed his mind quickly and cried out, "Lord Raven God, kill him for me!"
The immense whirlwind was fast approaching as Inoue Harusame stood frozen, at a loss for what to do.
Ye Ming stretched out his hand and pulled her frail body behind his own.
"A bit more powerful than the fox demon’s magic, but still not quite enough," Ye Ming appraised after observing the opponent’s performance.
Then, a ray of golden light suddenly appeared, tightly enveloping both Ye Ming and Inoue Harusame.
When the whirlwind touched the golden light, it gradually shrank and eventually disappeared.
Ye Ming let out a cold laugh. A magic that couldn’t even break the most basic Golden Light Spell seemed to show that the so-called Raven God was nothing special.
The Dark-Body Raven let out another desolate cry. Ye Ming’s actions were tantamount to a challenge.
It rose up violently, flapping its wings and charging toward Ye Ming.
Upon closer observation, Ye Ming noticed that it had incredibly sharp claws that glittered in the sunlight.
If struck by these claws, Ye Ming’s body would certainly lose a piece of flesh.
"My claws, perfected over a hundred years, can easily punch a hole through you!"
The Dark-Body Raven said viciously, "Since you don’t wish to be swallowed whole, then I’ll eat you piece by piece! Isn’t there a form of execution called ’Lingchi’ in the Dragon Country? I’ll let you experience it!"
With a swoosh, the sharp claws of the Dark-Body Raven reached Ye Ming’s face.
A chill, severe light flashed.
Ye Ming no longer underestimated his opponent. At this moment, he summoned a True Qi Blade and slashed directly at it.
A clanging sound of metal on metal ensued. The Dark-Body Raven let out a terrible shriek and hastily flew away. Looking down, it saw that part of its claw had been chopped off, blood gushing from the severed end. The pain was so excruciating that it couldn’t help but cry out loudly.
"You bastard, despicable Dragon Country person, how dare you sever my claw!"
"I, a noble Lord Raven God who has cultivated for a hundred years, have actually been wounded by a shameless wretch like you. Abominable, I can’t take it anymore!"
"I will turn you into ashes, and I’ll let you witness with your own eyes what true demon magic is!" fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
"Don’t forget, I can fly, and from now on, you won’t be able to touch me again!"
The Dark-Body Raven flapped its wings, soared into the sky, and widened the distance between itself and Ye Ming, no longer daring to engage in close combat with Ye Ming.
At this time, it had the advantage of position, looking down from on high, leaving Ye Ming with nothing but the option to take hits.
Ye Ming had a calm and composed expression on his face, unaffected by the raven, and even said with a chuckle, "That’s actually good, fighting from a distance can save quite a lot of energy!"
As he spoke, a charm appeared in Ye Ming’s hand and immediately headed for the Lord Raven God in the sky.
This was a Falling Thunder Talisman, into which Ye Ming had poured a great deal of True Qi. It was far more fierce than any other Falling Thunder Talisman he had employed before, a revelation he had gained amidst the pain while undergoing heavenly punishment.
It was his first time using it, and the Lord Raven God in the sky was his experimental target.
The Dark-Body Raven once again uttered a desolate cry, tauntingly saying, "Do you think a mere charm can subdue me, a noble Lord Raven God? You’re too naive, young man!"
"Back in the day, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, the Lord Raven God suddenly felt an immense pressure coming down on him, so heavy that he couldn’t even catch his breath.
After hesitating for a moment, he looked up and saw a dark cloud beginning to condense overhead.
From within the cloud, the sound of rolling thunder rumbled, with each peal causing the pressure to increase manifold.
"What is... this thing?"
He stuttered out the words just as a dazzling light beam shot out from the cloud, hitting the body of the Lord Raven God with precision.
A scream akin to a pig being slaughtered came from the sky.
The Dark-Body Raven’s feathers began to scatter in all directions, instantly turning into a bald raven.
Its body experienced free fall in the air, slowly descending towards the ground.
Ye Ming intercepted it halfway, employing his own Soul Transfer Spell to summon a golden chain that firmly locked the Lord Raven God’s body.
Soon, a crystal-clear bead appeared on the golden chain.
The Lord Raven God’s body became useless, its soul extracted from the body, condensed into a Soul Condensing Bead.
The bead was transparent throughout, with some impurities inside. Judging by the color of the impurities, the demon soul of this monster was not so perfect, far from meeting Ye Ming’s standards.
However, having it was better than not. Now that Xu Lele’s body was growing weaker by the day, this demon soul might sustain her for a while.
Immediately after securing the Soul Condensing Bead, he reached out and severed all the claws of the Lord Raven God. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
This monster had spent a hundred years cultivating, all into its claws; they were indeed a fine material. Ye Ming took it for himself, which might come in handy in the future.
On the ground, outside the gates of the Raven God Temple, Sakurada Yoko and Shan Shangmu watched in horror as Ye Ming took action, completely stunned.
Sakurada Yoko trembled all over, looking at Ye Ming as if seeing a ghost, murmuring, "You actually killed the Lord Raven God!"
A collapse of faith needs time to accept reality. Ye Ming let out a cold scoff and said, "What I killed is not a god, just a demon!"
"Now, it’s the next one’s turn!"
