“That’s Peakless Lord’s strongest avatar.” Yao Ji had a serious expression while looking at the avatar.
“You know quite a bit, Little Miss.” The turtle peeked its head out of Feiyun’s chest and stared at Yao Ji.
Yao Ji glanced at it before shooting out an indistinct wisp of energy, directly freezing the turtle into a block of ice.
“Peak less Lord has three main avatars, Nether Ghost Claw, Nether Ghost Eye, and Nether Ghost Form. The strongest one is the ghost form, that’s the one here since a month ago. Its goal is probably to devour Supreme G.o.ddess’ soul.” Yao Ji said.
The one that attacked the Ji was the Nether Ghost Claw. It was powerful enough to frighten G.o.dfiend and the King of Abnormalities.
It fought Ji Haotian and eventually faltered. Nonetheless, it caused the curse within him to fully activate and destroy his life force beyond cure. The lord’s weakest avatar was already so dreadful.
Now, it was the strongest avatar present in the shrine.
“Pop!” The turtle broke the ice. It shuddered from being cold and stared at the pretty girl, no longer daring to tease her.
She was not one to be trifled with.
The avatar didn’t try to hide it at all and materialized right outside the shrine. Miasma gathered around it along with wailing souls. There must have been more than a million, meaning that it had devoured that many.
“You dare to intrude this holy shrine?!” Four majestic old men appeared. They were full of vitality with lightning coursing through their eyes. All four were Super Giant.
“Keke, flies.” The miasma turned into a gigantic mouth that swallows all four GIants.
They immediately turned into blood inside, leaving behind four souls struggling in there. They eventually lost the power to struggle and a.s.similated into the miasma.
The guards and followers in the shrine were horrified. They hurriedly ran back but the avatar didn’t give them the chance to run. Several hundred cultivators became its food, also a.s.similating into its body.
“Supreme, I’m here for your soul.” The avatar laughed.
“Boom!” A bird resembling a peac.o.c.k flew out. It had blue feathers and a blue radiance and could speak: “How impudent! This is holy ground, how dare a fiend like you dare to intrude?”
It was a beast king that had cultivated for two thousand years, one of the bulwark beasts in Jin.
It spewed out an ocean of energy that surrounds the avatar.
“Haha, Peac.o.c.k King huh? Just an uncultivated bird in my eyes.” The avatar easily rushed out of the ocean.
It waved its hand and shot out a beam, striking the peac.o.c.k and leaving behind a gaping hole.
Blood gushed out from the wound and turned black. It actually tried to engulf the peac.o.c.k.
The peac.o.c.k roared and flapped its wings in order to flee.
“Raa!” The miasma turned into a palm and caught the peac.o.c.k, also devouring it.
“Boom!” The spirit beast was reduced into blood. Its soul also struggled for a bit before becoming one with the avatar.
The survivors were scared out of their mind, completely paralyzed on the ground.
“Peakless Lord, you’re underestimating Jin.” A clear female voice sounded.
“Whoos.h.!.+” A ray shot out from the shrine and illuminated the area. Inside was a kingdom-toppling woman standing at the apex of beauty. Her dress and hair fluttered to the wind - towering b.r.e.a.s.t.s, slender waist, s.h.i.+ny skin. Waves of auspicious clouds floated around her.
The atmosphere became moving in her presence with divine melodies playing.
Feiyun was ecstatic to see her. She looked extremely holy, completely unstained by the mortal coil.
“Supreme G.o.ddess, she’s here!”
“Praise be to the G.o.ddess!”
The frightened followers got up on their knees and started bowing at her.
This was the power of faith.
“She’ll destroy this monster in no time at all!”
“The merciful G.o.ddess will destroy all evil! They can’t stay in her presence!”
The avatar snorted: “Idiotic mortals, she has no chance of killing me.”
In the distance, Feiyun frowned. This Long Jiangling is so annoying, telling Supreme to go stop this avatar?
She has only condensed her soul, how can she fight against this creature? Just one divine intent from that thing is enough to end her.
“Strange, why is the empress doing this? She might have calculated your arrival and told Supreme to come out in order to lure you in.” Yao Ji said. This was her first time seeing Supreme and was drawn in by her beauty.
Supreme G.o.ddess was a Fiend looking exactly like Nangong Hongyan, truly worthy of being the number one beauty in Jin.
“Long Jiangling is quite intelligent, she might have calculated your arrival too and wants to use you.” Feiyun said.
“That’s another possibility.” Yao Ji didn’t seem to mind being pulled into this mess.
“Oh?” Feiyun noticed a pendant worn by Supreme G.o.ddess in the shape of a white crescent moon.
His weapon essence!
He had changed it to the moon back at the grave but the empress took it from him. She said that she had thrown it away.
He tried to find it to no avail and didn’t expect to see it here.
“So she gave it to Supreme instead. What is she trying to say?” Feiyun thought.
“Are we moving?” Yao Ji gazed at the shrine.
“What a plot from Long Jiangling. We know it’s a trap but still need to jump in.” Feiyun said.
“Something’s strange here. My intuition is telling me this.” The turtle stared at the G.o.ddess and said.
The other two nodded. Experts like them couldn’t see through a few things but their intuition was usually accurate.
“Long Jiangling, I know you’re wounded after the last battle but you don’t even have the courage to come face me right now? Stop calling yourself an empress. I’ll swallow this Supreme G.o.ddess then you next, haha!” The avatar guffawed.
Its long laughter alerted this side of the city despite the many formations. Numerous cultivators began paying attention to the shrine.
In reality, some have noticed the death of four Super Giants and a spirit beast king earlier. This creature was an absolute monster.
Alas, the true masters of Jin were preoccupied at the gates to stop the coalition forces and couldn’t come to the shrine.
This was definitely a two-p.r.o.nged attack - a premeditated plot.
If the empress and Supreme G.o.ddess were to fall, Jin would lose their number one expert and spiritual totem. That would be the end of Jin.
Many understood this but there was nothing they could do. This avatar was too strong and they would only be throwing their lives away like moths drawn to the flame.
Is the empress really wounded? This was definitely bad news.
“You haven’t gotten my permission to roam freely here.” An unhappy voice sounded.
Feiyun came out from the darkness while holding a stone coffin. He stood facing the avatar, the G.o.ddess was behind him. The heavy coffin left behind a deep trail on the stone path.
