The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1218 - 465: Goddess Ba VS Desolate God

"Divine Enthronement... the womb..."

"Ahh! My eyes! I can’t see anything! Save me!"

Outside Earth God Mountain, for a hundred miles around,

towering watchtowers a kilometer high were manned by armored Freelance Mercenaries.

They were constantly vigilant for any activity from Wooden God Mountain and Giant Kun Valley, stunned to see them hastily flee.

Those who were careless enough to look at the bone ship through their binoculars,

suddenly found their eyes bleeding, their eyeballs as if forcibly gouged out.

"Retreat! Abandon the position! Evacuate immediately!"

"This is an ultra-hazardous event! Without the Divine Enthronement from Wooden God Mountain and Giant Kun Valley, no one is qualified to intervene!"

"Those looking to take advantage, get the hell out of the team. If you bring trouble to everyone, killing you won’t be enough to quell the hatred!"

The team leaders, generally the cream of the crop among Saints,

took charge immediately, forcibly taking control of the order and urging everyone to flee.

In the midst of chaos and panic, once they confirmed the disaster couldn’t possibly reach them,

a Holy Beast mustered the courage to glance in the direction of Earth God Mountain.

"Whoosh!"

Above the sky, as if a green sun hovered.

It radiated endless light and heat, absorbing all sources of light, easily becoming the center of the Law of the land.

Then, with a leap, it plunged into Earth God Mountain.

"Boom!!"

Their souls trembled, a lightning sensation piercing their heavenly spirit opening, their limbs suddenly paralyzed.

In an instant, Earth God Mountain shook, a loud noise breaking a peace that had lasted for nearly a thousand years.

The vermilion divine light bathed the heavens, the dazzling twilight shattered into nothingness.

Winds rose from the plains, waves from the vast ocean, yet it was nothing compared to what had happened.

"It’s too domineering, just starting to fight..."

"Is this the Guardian Divine of the Solar Abyss? Goddess Ba, I have seen Her honored name in ancient records..."

"The scribes of the scriptures, cautious with every word, careful with every sentence, as if afraid that the other party might see it one day, daring only to state facts, not daring to exaggerate..."

"Ah, what kind of moving appearance does this Divine Enthronement, honored by heaven and earth, possess? What kind of inconceivable Divine Power? We mortals are not qualified to pry, yet this curiosity truly torments one..."

The bystanders were variously dumbfounded, visibly shaken, or filled with a multitude of emotions.

However, amidst the spreading frenzy and madness, Ye Hanjun, Mang Hao, Mie Quan, Mu Yi... all had bright, spirited eyes.

Desolate God—just an alias!

Any Desolate Divine who couldn’t call out a name, didn’t have a clear origin, was uniformly called so.

Over a thousand years passed, forces like Mang Hao’s lineage of sacrificing the dead, Wooden God Mountain, Giant Kun Valley, and other superpowers, had all discerned its true form.

This Desolate God that crawled out of its tomb, its true Species Name is ’Desert Wood Ant’.

Its body is that of an ant, adept at burrowing.

Its unique splitting characteristics meant that with one body, it firmly occupied the entire Earth God Mountain.

"Click click click..."

Looking over the vermilion-enshrouded God Mountain, there was none of the "emerald land stretching for billions of miles, as if alive with emerald" mentioned in ancient books.

Nor was there "flowers and grass swaying, a hundred beasts frolicking."

Trees, yellow and shriveled, of varying heights, grew wildly like weeds.

They didn’t even have a single leaf, utterly barren, lacking the most basic sign of vitality.

If you were to liken them to street thugs and ruffians, it would be apt.

They were a part of the principle of the Desert Wood Ant, corresponding to the skill ’Soul-Draining Wily Wood’, capable of marking specific areas.

At first, this place was bursting with life.

Gradually, all the natural energy was siphoned away by the Soul-Draining Wily Wood.

At the source, the Desert Wood Ant was surely the ultimate beneficiary.

Its forte was the way of plunder; nature’s spiritual energy, natural vitality, spirits of living beings... often, whatever came its way was devoured, no matter the amount.

"Bang!!"

Goddess Ba descended upon Earth God Mountain, struck with her fist, snapping all the Soul-Draining Wily Wood within the fan-shaped area before her.

This was just testing the waters; the blue punches that followed were more exquisite and more brutal, one after another.

In an instant, at least tens of thousands of Soul-Draining Wily Wood were destroyed.

Yet Earth God Mountain remained eerily still, the scattered remains of skeletons narrating past desolation.

"Gods’ power, gather!"

A blue fist huge enough to shadow the sun emerged from the sky, crashing down towards the earth.

With a thunderous shake, a pit deeper than thirty thousand meters appeared, and within a thousand miles, the Soul-Draining Wily Woods couldn’t help but let out silent screams, cracking at their roots and finally disintegrating into dust.

"Still not showing yourself? Do you want your grandma to invite you out?"

The headless Goddess Ba, full of killing intent.

She stamped on the void, spiderweb-like cracks spreading from her feet to the other end of the horizon.

—Divine · Unmake!

The Desolate Divine held mastery over the way of plunder, an expert in that path.

But let’s not forget, the Hanba Clan, long residing in the Solar Abyss, refined sunlight, absorbed the essence of all things, and was also skilled in this way!

According to historical records, wherever a Hanba went rampaging through All Heavens, the water from rivers and lakes would evaporate, fertile lands, irrigated fields, and places dominated by yellow sands... all would turn into Deep Red wasteland, where grass wouldn’t grow again for hundreds of years.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!!!"

Suddenly, towering flames ignited on Earth God Mountain.

The flames were blue, crystal clear, without a trace of impurity.

At first glance, they appear serene and refined, exuding profound charm.

But stare too long, and unease sets in the heart.

One’s limbs are being sapped of vitality, a faint but deep-seated feeling of weakness, slowly corroding the soul.
