Chapter 788 - Defeating the Gods Alone (1/2)
788 Defeating the G.o.ds Alone
The Dragon Lake.
It was a calm lake located deep in the Chang Bai mountain range.
It was only a normal pond before the world changed. But then, the gate of the Dragon Lake opened and many monsters and dragons flew out of it. The energy of the world surged, filling this place with weird plants and animals like a spirit ground.
Ever since the Ancestral Dragon appeared a thousand years ago, n.o.body dared to provoke them. And just then, people were gathering around.
Countless human warriors came from all around the world to witness Chen Fan defeat the Dragon Lake and the secret lands. This was the first time mankind declared war on the secret lands, issuing a challenge to the legendary Ancestral Dragon; everyone was thrilled because of this.
A man in a Chinese tunic suit at the foot of the mountain said, “Brother Gudao, you’re here. Isn’t the Broken Knife Sect in Southern Xinjiang?”
Another man with a sword smiled and said, “It’s a remarkable feat for Heavenly Chen to fight against the secret lands. Even though we’ve just entered the Transcendent State and can’t help much, we can still cheer for him. Brother, are you coming?”
Martial Arts had been thriving in recent days. All sects started to pa.s.s down their arts to people and the country even wanted to organize Martial Arts courses in schools. Sect Masters like the man with a sword were superior beings in a city.
But at the moment, people like them were everywhere.
There were countless Martial Artists, j.a.panese swordsmen, Southeast Asian Gong Tau Masters and Korean fighters down the mountain.
This battle would determine which party the East belonged to, so other countries were also concerned about it.
Not only humans, many members of the secret lands and alien races were there. A lot of military satellites and drones were filming and over two billion people were watching this battle through their TVs and laptops.
“If Heavenly Chen can defeat the Dragon Lake, he’ll become the dominator of mankind and gain an unprecedented reputation,” the man in Chinese tunic suit said.
“The old dragon is extraordinarily cunning. I wonder what trap was set for Heavenly Chen this time.”
The man with a sword frowned.
Then.
Many people flew in the sky and each of them seemed to be powerful. They were apparently Immortal State Warriors, including Li Shuhuan and Sun Diange. They had traveled to watch the fight, but when they arrived three hundred meters away from Dragon Lake…
“Swish.”
Spouts of water were shot out from the Dragon Lake, slas.h.i.+ng at the crowd like some giant swords. They struck down eight Immortal State Warriors; those who were severely injured almost died as their organs cracked.
A man stepped out of Dragon Lake.
He looked handsome and brawny, and seemed to have merged with the world.
“Kill the trespa.s.sers!”
When he said these three words…
The trees in the nearby dozens of miles shook and water moved violently. Many weak Martial Artists suffered from headaches and even the Grandmasters were startled.
“An Earth Level Deity?” the man with a sword said.
The man in Chinese tunic suit narrowed his eyes and said, “It’s Zhang Jiuya, another legendary Heavenly Being of the Zhang family. Although he’s not on the Deity Roll, he’s as powerful as the top ten. He’s a descendant highly favored by the old dragon. It didn’t even send him to the meeting of the League of Deities.”
Once Zhang Jiuya showed up, many Immortal State Warriors trembled and their eyes were full of fear.
Even though there were dozens of Immortal State Warriors, Zhang Jiuya wasn’t worried about handling them on his own. Everyone in the world could clearly see the disdain on his face.
“So, this is an Earth Level Deity. Even though we have a lot of Immortal State Warriors, there’s only a handful of them. Eight from the Dragon Lake died and there are still more of them. The Christian Church, the Gold Clan and the Mermen are even more powerful…”
Countless people in front of the screens were worried.
“Grandpa, don’t worry. We have Heavenly Chen. He will certainly defeat the Dragon Lake and show them what mankind is capable of,” a junior said.
A new Immortal State Warrior of the King Kong Sect yelled, “Zhang Jiuya, all our Overlords are gathered here. Do you really think you can resist us by yourself?”
“Boom.”
Zhang Jiuya didn’t answer; he only flicked his sleeve.
“Whoosh.”
A hundred-meter white mark shot across the sky like an invisible sword and struck the Immortal State Warrior of the King Kong Sect.
The King Kong Sect was known for being unbeatable.
This old monk was a Grand Elder of the sect and he had worked hard to enter the Immortal State. His body was strong enough to survive tank sh.e.l.ls, but then, he was as fragile as gla.s.s and exploded into pieces.
One attack and an Immortal State Warrior died!
The world immediately went silent.
Everyone clenched their fists and stared at Zhang Jiuya. The Martial Artists of the East were enraged, but none of them dared to step forward.
The power difference between Connate Beings and mortals was too large. It wasn’t something quant.i.ty could compensate.
“You’re mortals while we are Deities and Ent.i.ties. How can you doubt us?” Zhang Jiuya despised the humans.
“Zhang Jiuya, don’t forget the mortals you mentioned killed King Kaneha and the Heavenly Snake King. We’re now here to destroy the Dragon Lake!” Azure Dragon snickered.
“Him? He’s digging his own grave!”
Zhang Jiuya grunted.
Suddenly, a cold voice came from afar.
“Really?”
Then, Zhang Jiuya looked up and saw countless clouds form a giant hand, flying towards him.
