BOOM!

A brilliant, dazzling golden flame instantly ignited in Chu He’s palm, blazing with vigorous and intense heat.

The so-called protective phantom of the Fallen God instantly reacted like a mouse seeing a cat,

completely ignoring Brooks’s control and voluntarily separating itself from the Kappa’s body.

In that instant, the golden flame enveloped the Kappa’s entire body.

The Kappa didn’t even have time to let out a scream

before it melted into a writhing mass of energy within the golden flames.

Then, Chu He opened his mouth, and a black vortex swirled into existence within.

He swallowed the flowing mass of energy.

This was pure energy that had been refined by the True Sun Fire,

so Chu He absorbed it directly into his Nascent Soul to solidify his cultivation in that realm.

"This... This is impossible!"

Brooks wore an expression of utter disbelief.

The Fallen God’s protection was considered a Forbidden Curse in the world of Magic.

Even for someone with Brooks’s power, casting it required an immense drain of the Mysterious Power within his body.

Yet, in the face of Chu He’s golden flame, the Fallen God’s protection didn’t even attempt to clash with it.

It simply peeled away from the Kappa’s body on its own.

Every Forbidden Curse Magic was rumored to be a powerful spell capable of channeling Divine Power, directly receiving a deity’s blessing to achieve its caster’s goal.

’Could Chu He’s golden flame be even more terrifying than true Divine Power?’

SWISH!

Chu He spun around and kicked Yoshitsune, who was attempting a sneak attack from behind with a weapon in hand.

The force of the kick instantly disintegrated Yoshitsune’s body. He never even understood what happened

as his consciousness was extinguished in death.

Comparatively, Yoshitsune’s death was the cleanest and most painless.

The exchange had lasted but a moment, yet in that brief instant,

the so-called two great deities of the White-Red Empire—the Kappa and Yoshitsune—

had been dispatched by Chu He in what could only be described as an instant kill.

The power of the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Technique surged from Chu He’s body once more.

He swallowed Yoshitsune’s refined energy, further solidifying his Nascent Soul Realm.

’However, it was still far from enough.’

’If I can also refine these members of the Vampire Clan,’

’as well as this Vishnu from the White Elephant Empire, one of their three great gods, with my Heaven-Swallowing Demon Technique,’

’then I can completely stabilize my Nascent Soul Realm.’

"Judgment Domain!"

The Vampire Clan’s Prince was finally enraged. He absolutely could not let this drag on any longer.

In the first wave, the White-Red Empire had used its most powerful mysterious weapon to launch a saturation attack on the entirety of Xinwudao City.

The result? Chu He was standing here, completely unscathed.

And in the blink of an eye, he had also killed the White-Red Empire’s two deities, Yoshitsune and the Kappa.

The oppressive aura Chu He exuded was beginning to erode Brooks’s confidence.

As Brooks shouted the words "Judgment Domain,"

a blood-red moon suddenly rose into the sky,

hanging directly opposite the round sun. The scene was utterly bizarre.

"The moon and sun appearing at the same time? That Vampire Clan Prince’s power is truly heaven-defying!"

"It must be the power Chu He displayed that forced the Prince to use such a powerful counter-attack. Otherwise, they might not be able to escape safely."

"Why do you have so much faith in Chu He? Are you really looking down on our White Elephant Empire’s Vishnu, who hasn’t even made a move yet?"

"Can you people from the White Elephant Empire stop hyping yourselves up? Who was it that fled in disgrace after Chu He cut off both his arms last time?"

"Look! Something new is happening on the roof."

The comments in the livestream chat flooded in like a torrential river, endless and overwhelming.

With the Kappa slain by Chu He, the cold river water that had flooded the rooftop had completely vanished.

Now, only the members of the Vampire Clan and Vishnu, one of the three great gods, remained.

As a cold wind swept by, a massive Cross abruptly materialized behind Chu He.

It was not standing on solid ground but seemed to have emerged from the void itself,

every inch of it seeping dark red blood that dripped slowly to the ground, pooling into slender rivers of gore. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

It exuded a nauseating stench and an ominous aura.

The surrounding air filled with an overwhelmingly oppressive atmosphere.

Then, as if summoned by an unseen hand, crows began to emerge from the darkness in every direction.

Their feathers were as black as night, and when they spread their wings, they nearly blotted out the sky.

Each pair of eyes mirrored the bizarre red moon in the sky,

flashing with the same chilling, blood-red light, like gatekeepers of Hell itself.

They stared at Chu He, their eyes filled with greed and desire.

The crows circled and dove through the air,

their wings beating against the air with shrill, piercing caws.

This, combined with the blood-red glint in their eyes, created a heart-stopping image.

The crows did not seem eager to attack. Instead, with an almost mocking demeanor,

they surrounded Chu He, every movement radiating a sense of absolute control and toying with their prey.

Amid this bizarre scene, the sky grew unprecedentedly dim. The stars vanished,

and even the bright moon that should have been high above and the newly risen sun seemed to be suppressed by some power,

disappearing completely from sight.

The vines on the Cross seemed to come alive.

They were covered in sharp thorns that glinted coldly under the reflection of the crows’ blood-red eyes.

Slowly but surely, they crept toward Chu He.

Like venomous snakes, the vines coiled and tightened, ultimately binding Chu He firmly to the Cross,

rendering him immobile.

Seeing this, the crows grew even more excited.

Their caws became increasingly strange and sharp,

like a deafening symphony from Hell.

They began to dive at Chu He one after another, their flapping wings creating black tempests in the air,

a world-blotting torrent like a black waterfall surging down from the sky,

vowing to swallow Chu He in endless darkness and fear.

"It’s over. Chu He has been restrained."

"As expected, our Lighthouse Empire’s forces have the upper hand in the end."

"The so-called number one superpower on Blue Star, controlled by a bunch of Vampires who are neither human nor ghost. Are you proud of that?"

"That’s only because our White Elephant Empire’s deity, Vishnu, hasn’t acted yet. Otherwise, how could we let you Lighthouse Empire Vampires gain the advantage?"

"Give me a break. If Vishnu steps in... last time he lost his arms, this time he might lose his head."

As Chu He was bound to the blood-drenched Cross by the thorny vines,

the number of comments from users with Great Xia Empire IP addresses dropped sharply.

Meanwhile, people from the other Empires, especially the White Elephant Empire and the Lighthouse Empire, began to cheer with excitement.

Even though the White-Red Empire’s deities had been slain, they were still overjoyed.

As long as they could see Chu He die, they would get the revenge they craved.
