Chapter 58: The Fall of Rotten Bones (1/2)

It was not strange that it ended up so one-sided.

After all, ever since he found out the existence of a newbie deity just like him he couldn’t help but set up a scheme for the evil deity.

He created a seemingly weak area with lots of ‘defects’ in his spatial barrier, but in fact this rift in space was a trap set by Xi Wei, laying so many obstacles throughout the path that to break in through it would cost more divine energy than breaking the spatial barrier from any other point.

Then, Xi Wei used the special time period of war to amass a hundred believers, letting him obtain large amounts of divine energy quickly.

But even with this large income, Xi Wei still saved and used it in moderation, cutting down on all costs and even skimping out on creating a new visage for himself.

While the players came into contact with the believers of the Rotten Bones God, he even acted like he was weak and that he didn’t dare to show his presence. Adding onto that was the fact that the players were less experienced at the time and even the strongest players were only low leveled and couldn’t hold a candle to the strong believers in the higher echelon of the Rotten Bones Church.

All of this gave the Rotten Bones God the illusion that Xi Wei was an even weaker deity and he was, and that he could consume Xi Wei to further increase his divinity.

But alas, after he used up a third of his divine power to pass through the trap that Xi Wei had set up for him, he was closed in and was trapped by Xi Wei who had been plotting this all along.

After coming into contact with the other deity, Xi Wei realized that he had been overly cautious. Even though the evil deity was on the same level as Xi Wei, but as a deity that lived in an era close to the Middle Ages of Earth he could only roughly use a fraction of the powers he had the capability of using, to the point where even Xi Wei was embarrassed for him. This was a shame, because the evil deity had been in existence for a longer time and had more believers than Xi Wei did.

To say it in another way, both parties had a rifle and several bullets, and Xi Wei carefully loaded his rifle and hid behind an obstacle, expecting an action-packed Hollywood gunfight.

But in contrast, the enemy used the rifle as a staff, waving it around with vigor as they rushed over…It was so comedic that Xi Wei wanted to send a bullet straight into their forehead.

“What did you do! Why can’t I break out?” The Rotten Bones God still didn’t realize the situation that he was in and was still trying to escape.

“I didn’t do anything, you’re just a noob.” Xi Wei started condensing his divine energy to destroy the evil deity.

After all, no matter how stupid the enemy was, it was still a deity. They were completely different life forms from mortals, and so even if Xi Wei broke its neck and destroyed its head and chopped him into bits, he would still not be able to kill a deity.

To kill a deity, the only way other than letting them blink out of existence by exterminating their believers was to directly destroy their divinity!

A deity’s divinity was their greatest weakness. This statement was definitely true, but also too vague. It was why most legendary beings knew this fact, but it was exceedingly rare for a mortal to kill a deity. This was because while a deity’s divinity was their weakness, it was harder to destroy than their bodies!

So why did so many deities die in the War of Gods and Demons?

The reason was simple: Gods had the ability to convert their divine energy into divine power, which was one of the few ways to destroy a deity’s divinity!

The divine energy around Xi Wei flowed around as it was converted into a strong wave of divine power.
