Chapter 628: Eldritch Deity Hou Feng (2)

"Flee?" Wu Yuan\'s gaze turned cold. "Do you really think you can escape?"

Boom! Wu Yuan took a single step forward, his vital aura beginning to surge dramatically. His mana power, which had already reached the ninth-stage Earth Eldritch level, started to rise, approaching the High Eldritch level.

Archeldritch Divine Artifacts! As my mana increases and my Dao comprehension improves, the power I can draw from heaven and earth\'s authority through the Archeldritch Divine Artifacts grows stronger. Wu Yuan thought to himself.

The transition from the ninth-level Domain stage to the True Intent stage of Life was a qualitative transformation. However, since Wu Yuan had just made this breakthrough, he still needed time to fully grasp the essence of the Archeldritch Divine Artifacts. When he initially used his saber techniques, his vital ether hadn’t yet fully transformed.

But within the span of half a breath, as Wu Yuan attuned to the essence of the artifacts, the authority of heaven and earth surged into him.

Once it began, the process unfolded rapidly. In an instant, Wu Yuan’s vital aura was elevated to heights he had never reached before.

High Eldritch level? It seems my strength has just reached the First Tribulation High Eldritch level? Wu Yuan mused, sensing the power within him.

First Tribulation High Eldritches were the most ordinary High Eldritches. Yet the leap from Earth Eldritch to High Eldritch represented a qualitative change, granting Wu Yuan power on par with the numerous High Immortals and High Eldritches of the immortal and eldritch races.

With equal power levels, the determining factors of battle would naturally fall to ether arts, saber techniques, artifacts, and the like. In these aspects, Wu Yuan was in no way inferior to the Eldritch Deities and three Imperial Majesties.

His combat power soared to a whole new level.

Boom! As Wu Yuan completed his transformation with the empowerment of the Archeldritch Divine Artifacts, a pair of wings materialized behind him, resembling those of a roc. His speed instantly rose to frightening levels.

Grand ether art — Rending The Heavens!

In a flash, he lunged toward one of the fleeing beast battle arrays, terrifying the four High Immortals within the array.

They could all sense the changes in Wu Yuan\'s vital aura. They already couldn\'t withstand him before, how could they hope to now?

"Kill!" Wu Yuan\'s eyes were ice-cold as he unleashed eight saber strikes simultaneously. The two Archeldritch Divine sabers in particular erupted with immense power.

Eight dazzling, endless blade rays tore through the sky, their power vast and overwhelming.

"Defend!" The beast battle array gritted its teeth, swinging its claws in defense, attempting to block Wu Yuan.

Clang! Clang! Clang! A series of terrifying collisions rang out as the beast battle array was sent flying repeatedly by Wu Yuan\'s strikes.

"Die!" Wu Yuan\'s killing intent soared. His blade rays were like eight rivers, their power limitless, forcefully severing claw after claw.

"No!" The High Immortals and Earth Immortals within the battle array howled in despair.

A dazzling blade ray sliced through the void, leaving an enduring scar in space, cleaving the enormous battle array in two!

Rumble~ A hazy yet grand Dao fluctuation descended, amplifying the saber’s might even further. The blade ray howled and erupted.

In a single exchange, over a hundred Earth Immortals were annihilated. Their Yuan Souls emerged, attempting to flee, but were still utterly destroyed.

"No!" The four High Immortals frantically struggled to escape, but three were instantly slain, their Yuan Souls unable to flee. They were merely ordinary High Immortals, completely helpless before the unstoppable Wu Yuan.

Only one managed to escape, seemingly skilled in a movement technique that granted incredible speed.

This was the weakness of High Immortals. If they were body refiners of the same level, they could have put up a longer struggle after defeat thanks to their powerful bodies.

"Excellent!"

"Nice kill!" The numerous eldritch race powerhouses were ecstatic.

"They fell just like that?"

"His strength has surged once again. He must be nearly as powerful as an Eldritch Deity now. It\'s simply unbelievable."

"A battle array, wiped out in the blink of an eye?" This scene caused many of the immortal race\'s powerhouses to feel a shared sense of doom.

Unlike the eldritch race, the immortal race had fewer than a hundred High Immortals, and now three had fallen in an instant. If one considered the Earth Immortals, the number of casualties was even higher.

One had to understand that in the nearly hundred years of war prior, the repeated battles had almost completely annihilated the mana bodies and ether bodies of the top powerhouses of both the eldritch and immortal races.

It took at least tens of thousands of years for High Immortals and High Eldritches to create new mana bodies and ether bodies. So, those who participated in this battle were mostly in their true bodies.

"All of you deserve to die!" Wu Yuan immediately lunged toward another beast battle array that had nearly left the range of the Archeldritch tribe\'s array.

High Immortal Wu Zong was also fleeing in the same direction.

Flee. I can\'t stop this Hou Feng. High Immortal Wu Zong gritted her teeth, her form instantly melting into the void, traceless.

Having reached the fourth-level True Intent stage of the Qiankun Dao, her direct combat ability might not match that of the immortal race\'s Heavenly Masters or the eldritch race\'s veteran elders, but her self-preservation ability was simply unparalleled. Even the Imperial Majesties of the immortal race might not be able to catch her.

While High Immortal Wu Zong managed to escape, this beast battle array\'s speed was far too slow. It had no hope of fleeing and was swiftly overtaken by Wu Yuan.

"Eldritch Deity Hou Feng, spare us! Spare us," the beast battle array wailed piteously. "We surrender! We’re willing to serve the eldritch race."

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Ruthless blade rays crushed everything in their path. The two sides clashed over a hundred times, the aftershocks radiating for hundreds of thousands of li. In the end, Wu Yuan forcefully cleaved open the battle array, killing all the High Immortals and Earth Immortals within the array.

Even a powerhouse with strength comparable to a Second Tribulation High Immortal was pursued and ferociously slain by Wu Yuan.

The other powerhouses of the immortal race shuddered as they witnessed this. Compared to the other Eldritch Deities of the eldritch race, Wu Yuan\'s killing style was far more savage, seemingly disregarding defense almost entirely.

At this moment, Imperial Majesty Nan You had already safely escorted the other beast battle arrays of the immortal race out of the range of the eldritch tribe\'s array.

The defenses of his divine cauldrons were formidable, blocking the pursuit of the Snake Ancestor and several other High Eldritches.

Whoosh! A terrifying bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, swiftly gathering up the remaining beast battle arrays that had shaken off the High Eldritches.

Finally, the figure landed beside Imperial Majesty Nan You. He too wore imperial robes, his aura overwhelming and his body crackling with countless lightning bolts. It was Imperial Majesty Lei Fu!

He had fully comprehended a Lesser Law of Thunder, allowing him to excel in attacks and movement skills. Few in all of Huanggu could match his speed. That was why he had been given the task of leading the armies in surprise attacks in the past.

"Hou Feng, don\'t chase them out," the Snake Ancestor suddenly spoke.

Whoosh! Wu Yuan\'s ferocious expression calmed slightly as he nodded lightly. Still holding his sabers, he landed beside the Snake Ancestor. The auras of these two powerhouses overlapped as they faced off against the two Imperial Majesties in the distance.

Imperial Majesty Lei Fu. Wu Yuan gazed at that figure, a glint of killing intent flashing in his eyes.

The Hou Cheng Tribe had been destroyed by Imperial Majesty Lei Fu and his army.

Boom! Boom! In the air not far away, Eldritch Deity Hou Tu led a group of High Eldritches, rapidly approaching their position.

"Big Brother." Imperial Majesty Lei Fu looked towards Imperial Majesty Nan You.

"We\'ve lost." Imperial Majesty Nan You gazed deeply at Wu Yuan, then his eyes swept over the Snake Ancestor and the distant Eldritch Deity Hou Tu. He sighed softly, "Let\'s go."

Imperial Majesty Lei Fu gritted his teeth as he looked at Wu Yuan, understanding what a retreat at this point meant. However, if they didn\'t leave now, they might not be able to leave at all.

Whoosh! Imperial Majesty Lei Fu waved his hand, enveloping Imperial Majesty Nan You and instantly transforming into a bolt of lightning. Their speed immediately shot up to a hundred thousand li per second.

Then it increased to 120,000 li per second, 150,000 li per second... swiftly disappearing from the Yuan Soul perception range of Wu Yuan, the Snake Ancestor, and the others.

...

"We\'ve won!"

"A great victory!"

"We\'ve won this battle." The High Eldritches were all smiles, breathing sighs of relief as they flew over.

Despite being at a disadvantage and facing two Imperial Majesties of the immortal race, they had defended the Earth Archeldritch tribe, and even slew several High Immortals along with a large number of Earth Immortals. This battle could indeed be called a great victory.

"Hou Feng." The Snake Ancestor’s head swiveled towards Wu Yuan, its eyes brimming with admiration. "Your contributions were monumental to our victory. You are truly worthy of being called an Eldritch Deity."

"Hou Feng."

"Eldritch Deity?"

"Indeed. Though Hou Feng may only be at the ninth-stage Elysian Field phase, the power he\'s unleashed surpasses many veteran elders. He is more than deserving of the Eldritch Deity title."

"Eldritch Deity is a title earned through strength after all." The High Eldritches, though initially taken aback, swiftly adjusted their attitudes.

The way they addressed Wu Yuan changed unanimously—Eldritch Deity Hou Feng!

"Eldritch Deity?" Wu Yuan was startled at first, but quickly accepted it. After this battle, his mindset had undergone a significant transformation.

Sometimes, one must fight! Giving up without a fight meant death.

The title of Eldritch Deity represented not only glory, but also the responsibility of carrying the banner of the Huanggu eldritch race.

"Thank you, Snake Ancestor. However, without the Archeldritch Divine Artifacts..." Wu Yuan began to speak.

"Eldritch Deity Hou Feng," Eldritch Deity Hou Tu beside him interjected with a smile. "No need to explain. In our hands, the Archeldritch Divine Artifacts can only exert a fraction of their power, but in your grasp, they truly shine.

When your cultivation advances further, your strength will undoubtedly grow even more formidable, swiftly surpassing me and the Snake Ancestor, perhaps even rivaling Eldritch Deity Zhu Jiu," Eldritch Deity Hou Tu remarked with a sigh.

"Mm." Wu Yuan nodded slightly.

Eldritch Deity Zhu Jiu? He was universally acknowledged as the strongest being in Huanggu.

Even if the three Imperial Majesties of the immortal race were to wield their Creation Divine Weapons, they were hardly a match for him outside Heavenly Pillar Mountain.

"I wonder how the battle at Heavenly Pillar Mountain is going."

"I don\'t know."

"With over sixty percent, maybe even seventy percent of the immortal race\'s forces attacking our Earth Archeldritch branch, how can they possibly hold out?" The numerous High Eldritch and Eldritch Deities exchanged their thoughts.

"Eldritch Deity Zhu Jiu has already led the army to the Fourth Heaven. It\'s just that the numerous arrays are slowing their progress," the Snake Ancestor suddenly spoke, communicating swiftly with the frontlines at Heavenly Pillar Mountain.

"However, before the immortal race\'s main force returns to Heavenly Pillar Mountain, I believe we can destroy the Eighteenth Heaven at least," the Snake Ancestor said solemnly.

"Haha, excellent!"

"Slaughtering our way through the lower seventeen heavens? That\'s where over sixty percent of the immortal race\'s members are gathered, right? Let\'s annihilate them all!"

"Destroying the lower seventeen heavens will significantly slow the immortal race’s production of new powerhouses." The numerous High Eldritch were filled with joy.

Wu Yuan listened quietly, deep in thought.

The immortal race paid such a hefty price just to kill me? Wu Yuan pondered silently. Could it be that in the eyes of the immortal race, my value exceeds that of more than half their population?

But over these past decades, I\'ve never displayed any dazzling talent. Even the tribe\'s veteran elders who know part of the situation only believe my talent rivals that of Eldritch Deity Zhu Jiu. They don\'t know I\'ve comprehended a Greater Law.

Only the Snake Ancestor knows about this. Could it be the legendary Mirror of Creation? But are its divination abilities really this miraculous? Wu Yuan found it hard to believe.

Without ever meeting him, and with barely any intelligence to go off from, it could predict his future? Even beings as great as Immortal Sovereign Bei You and Eldritch Sovereign Kua Chi shouldn\'t possess such terrifying abilities.

Wu Yuan was reluctant to believe it, but after eliminating all other possibilities, only this one remained.

If it wasn\'t the power of the Mirror of Creation, then it could only mean one thing—the Snake Ancestor was a traitor.

Mirror of Creation? A spark of curiosity ignited in Wu Yuan\'s heart.
