Chapter 918: Chapter 245: The God of the Earth: Daoist Fan Wu is Comparable to the Deity General of the Heavenly Court!_5

At that moment, a gigantic eye slowly emerged amidst the magma filling the sky. Inside this eye was an orange-yellow slit pupil, within which molten light swirled. It seemed that one glance from the eye could consign a person to a magma-filled purgatory.

Fan Wu was staring at the Molten River Evil God, and the Molten River Evil God was staring back at him. The reason why Fan Wu was fixated on the Evil God was because of its connection to the San Qing Supreme Demon, and he was now pondering whether one of the San Qing Supreme Demons could be in the Shangwu Dynasty.

On the other hand, the Molten River Evil God focused on Fan Wu because it found this suddenly appeared nuisance oddly familiar; it felt as if it had seen this mortal before!

Huh?

Wait!

A mortal?

The Molten River Evil God’s massive eye suddenly widened even more, as a memory came flooding back. The Black Peng Fiendish Sovereign had once said that the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable had been slain some time ago, not by a mighty deity from the heavens or an even more formidable Demons and Devils, but by a mortal!

It recalled the Black Peng Fiendish Sovereign being extremely enraged, vowing to avenge the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable. The Black Peng Fiendish Sovereign also mentioned that in his dying moments, the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable used a secret technique to transmit back the appearance of his killer. However, due to being mortally wounded and on the brink of death, the transmitted appearance was quite blurred.

At that time, the Black Peng Fiendish Sovereign ordered that anyone resembling that person’s appearance should immediately report back to him. Whoever could bring information about this person to the Black Peng Fiendish Sovereign would receive a grand reward! Back then, the Molten River Evil God had made a point to remember that vague image.

The Molten River Evil God was also shocked and astounded at the time, as it had always believed that each of the San Qing Supreme Demons was extremely formidable—a first-class Demons and Devils! In this human world, there was no one who could be a match for the three Demon Venerables.

Yet such a powerful Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable had actually died at the hands of a mortal, which was truly unbelievable. But this news had indeed come from the Black Peng Fiendish Sovereign.

No matter how incredible it might seem, the Molten River Evil God had to admit that the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable might have indeed been slain by a mortal.

And now, how come this nuisance who messed up its plan resembled the blurred image provided by the Black Peng Fiendish Sovereign?

Adding to that, this mortal had somehow managed to withstand its attack. This fact alone gave the Molten River Evil God pause.

Combining these two critical clues... Any sane person would notice that something was amiss. It was too coincidental, almost to the point of making it suspect that the mortal below might just be the one who killed the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable.

"Who are you?" The Molten River Evil God had now ignored the Earth Deity, though its original intent was to pursue the Earth Deity. However, with the emergence of this uncertain element, it couldn’t help but shift its focus to this new concern.

The Molten River Evil God’s voice boomed like a bell tolling, echoing all around, clearly questioning Fan Wu below. Moreover, from its tone, one could hear that the Evil God was very cautious and alert at this moment.

Being a demon venerate, it was no fool, nor was it a brash, simple-minded brute.

"Qiulong Temple, Fan Wu." Fan Wu’s answer was as straightforward as ever. When this reply fell, the massive eye in the heavens trembled violently, as if the name had touched on some critical thought of the other party.

And indeed, that was the case.

"Qiulong Temple’s Fan Wu..." If the Molten River Evil God had a face, it would probably have turned green because it had heard this name from the Black Peng Fiendish Sovereign. The mortal who had killed the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable was a man called Fan Wu from Qiulong Temple! At this moment, it was certain that the mortal below was the murderer of the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable!

"If I could slay this rogue and take his head back... Would the Black Peng Fiendish Sovereign recommend me to become one of the next San Qing Supreme Demons?" The Molten River Evil God was somewhat tempted, but the impulse was quickly stifled by reason.

"No... No, that won’t do..." The Molten River Evil God immediately cast aside such thoughts, knowing that a madman who could kill the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable, even if by chance, was not something it could contend with.

If it became too greedy, it was likely that it would not only fail to take the mortal’s head back but might also end up leaving its own behind!

The Molten River Evil God made a decisive decision—

Run!!!

The Molten River Evil God had already started to feel like retreating, but how could Fan Wu from the Qiulong Temple, who had targeted Him, let Him escape? Before the Molten River Evil God could even begin to take action to flee, He suddenly felt a palpable sense of alarm! This feeling made Him feel extremely uneasy. Then, He saw Fan Wu from below at the Qiulong Temple move once again!

The Molten River Evil God watched helplessly as Fan Wu struck with his sword upwards. This seemingly casual strike actually gave Him a sense of danger! And in that instant, the scene before the Molten River Evil God’s eyes was enveloped in a brilliant white light. Once this white light appeared, His pupils sharply constricted.

"Not good!" Just as the Molten River Evil God thought to react, He felt an unprecedented tearing pain throughout His body! Such severe pain caused the molten lava in His giant eye to tremble and churn violently!

The Molten River Evil God realized that He had been hit by Fan Wu from the Qiulong Temple—how could the sword qi He released be so fast? He knew there might be some gap between Himself and Fan Wu, but He had not expected it to be this vast; He couldn’t even perceive the trajectory of the attack!

And indeed, right in the middle of the Molten River Evil God’s enormous figure that nearly blanketed the entire Lingchen County, a large crack appeared, dividing Him into two halves. This was the work of Fan Wu’s sword, one strike that bisected the body of an Evil God!

How terrifying?

How powerful?

"Heavens... heavens... even the skies have been cleaved by Brother Fan Wu!" Yan Dahu’s eyes were wider than copper bells as He shouted incredulously. This was because the massive form of the Molten River Evil God almost covered the entire sky of Lingchen County. And visually speaking, Fan Wu’s sword that bisected the Molten River Evil God did seem as if it had sliced the entire sky apart.

"Idiot, it’s not the sky that’s been cut open, it’s that Evil God!" Yan Dalong refuted, "Don’t spout nonsense if you don’t understand!"

The God of the Earth from Lingchen County was also stunned, "How does it feel... How does it feel even more terrifying than the rumors?"

The "terrifying" that the God of the Earth from Lingchen County spoke of naturally referred to Fan Wu!

In His memory of the tales He had heard, things seemed different from what He was witnessing now. The rumors spoke of Fan Wu from the Qiulong Temple having the power to battle an Evil God, but that such a fight would require His all.

However, looking at the scene right now, did Daoist Fan Wu from the Qiulong Temple really exhaust His full strength? Why did it seem like He did it with such ease?

As if this Evil God... simply couldn’t exert any pressure on Him at all!

How terrifying must His cultivation and abilities be?

The God of the Earth from Lingchen County truly couldn’t fathom it!

"Perhaps, He’s not so inferior to some of the Deity Generals above in the Heavenly Court?" The God of the Earth from Lingchen County didn’t dare to call Fan Wu a "Great Immortal," but He was sure that Fan Wu was definitely on par with some of the Deity Generals of the Heavenly Court.

That is to say, if Daoist Fan Wu from the Qiulong Temple wished to ascend to immortality, then He wouldn’t start from the lowest level as a minor deity, but rather directly leap to become a Deity General in the Heavenly Court!

At the very least, He would be of the eighth rank, right?

Or maybe the seventh rank?

Or even...

The seventh rank proper?

Hiss!
