I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night
Chapter 405 - 274: Holding the Divine Bow! Shooting Hawk God Venerate!

Chapter 405: Chapter 274: Holding the Divine Bow! Shooting Hawk God Venerate!

In the treacherous night, silence reigned.

Both banks fell into utter stillness.

The evil forces from all directions were terrified.

"Great Divine Venerable is dead!"

"Has this blasphemer slain a god?"

"Impossible! How could a god die?"

"It must be that this blasphemer used some kind of a trick to deceive us all!"

"May the Great Divine Venerable bring down divine punishment to exterminate the blasphemer!"

After a moment of silence, a tumultuous noise arose from the Human Clan on the opposite bank, followed by voices that rose and fell like the tides.

At the same time, even the East Mountain Prefecture Master, who was far away, had a complex expression in his eyes.

He did not know that Wu Chang possessed the Divine Skills for Demon Suppression.

All he knew was that Wu Chang’s blade, though it did not seem overwhelmingly powerful, concealed mysteries within.

Otherwise, how could the flashes of the blade he had seen gravely injure the Great Divine Venerable?

"Lord..."

The Cultivator, who had also glimpsed the distant scene, said in a low voice, "This number one prodigy of Qifeng Prefecture is not normal..."

"Qifeng Prefecture’s number one prodigy?"

The East Mountain Prefecture Master suddenly laughed, slowly saying, "I myself am not confident in defeating the Great Divine Venerable."

In his eyes, the Great Divine Venerable was an extremely dangerous and evil entity, even among those in the Refining God Realm of the Human Clan, he was among the top echelon.

Throughout the years, the human sacrifices in Three Gods Valley, stocked with rich incense, had served like an elixir of life.

In the fierce battles, receiving the Divine Power of the Human Clan’s incense in Three Gods Valley was like adding wings to a tiger, improving his skills even further.

And then there was this legendary Divine Bow!

By reason, to slay the Great Divine Venerable would require the Saint Master to emerge from the Holy Land to personally attend!

At the very least, on the surface, a temple priest in the early stages of the Refining God Realm with a significant weakness.

Plus Wu Chang, at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm.

Were far from enough to threaten the Great Divine Venerable.

How this battle was won, as an outsider, the East Mountain Prefecture Master admitted that he did not understand it.

Even as he watched, his mind was filled with confusion.

"The Great Divine Venerable’s cultivation is a notch above mine."

The East Mountain Prefecture Master said slowly, "I might level the playing field with various secret techniques from the Human Clan, but with the Great Divine Venerable wielding the Divine Bow, I have no chance of victory."

Such an admission, when it reached the ears of the Cultivator, set off tumultuous waves inside him.

Even the Lord doubted his ability to defeat the Great Divine Venerable, and even considered himself much inferior.

Yet this young prodigy of Qifeng Prefecture had achieved it!

"Not just the pride of Qifeng Prefecture... I fear none of the younger generation within my East Mountain Prefecture could compare," the Cultivator couldn’t help but remark emotionally.

The East Mountain Prefecture Master shook his head slightly, "Not just among the younger generation, even among the older generation of powerhouses, he is not weak."

As he said this, there was a trace of worry in his eyes as he slowly added, "The pity is, the higher a Human Clan member’s cultivation rises, the greater the risk of losing control, the more suffering they endure."

"Many of the older generations face the danger of losing control at any time. For someone so young to reach such heights, it may not be a good thing."

"If he remained at the pinnacle of the Qi Refining Realm, then the Human Clan would have a strong powerhouse at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm for decades to come."

"When he advances to the Refining God Realm, he could continue to protect the Human Clan until he loses control."

"But he has risen too high, too quickly. In the future, when he loses control... not only will there be a powerful Physical Body Evil Spirit loose in the world, it would also mean the Human Clan would lack the protection of a powerhouse during these decades."

The East Mountain Prefecture Master had deep and soulful eyes as he reached up to touch the back of his neck.

There, a new nodule of flesh had begun to grow.

Soon, it would develop into a new tendril.

If not carefully handled, he would soon lose control over his own body and no longer retain human form.

He, contaminated by the treacherous night and well aware of the "strange qi"’s erosion, had endured the torment of losing control for many years.

Therefore, what he saw was not a young man with boundless glory and limitless prospects walking an open road, but rather a young person of the Human Clan nearing the Abyss, deserving of pity and sadness.

"If he were born in a time without the descent of the treacherous night, with his talents, he would surely have the potential to reach the Old God’s level!"

The East Mountain Prefecture Master sighed and said, "Send the items over, and arrange for the subsequent matters on his behalf."

After a pause, the East Mountain Prefecture Master continued to speak, "I shall go personally..."

"Didn’t the Lord feel that they acted rashly and it was none of our concern, so you did not wish to get involved?"

"I’ve changed my mind."

"Why?"

"Such a strong figure from the Human Clan should not fall in Three Gods Valley."

"Fall? The Cultivator was taken aback, then said, "He has slain the Great Divine Venerable, and the other two Venerates are both ranked below him."

"But the combined power of both should not be underestimated," the East Mountain Prefecture Master said slowly. "To kill the Great Divine Venerable, he must have expended all his strength. Now weak and vulnerable, it would be a pity for him to die at the hands of the Ape God Venerable and the Hawk God Venerate."

——

At the same time.

Mr. Lu opened his eyes, and the worry within them dissipated.

He revealed a gratified smile.

There was also a profoundly complex meaning in it.

"You are stronger than I had imagined," said Mr. Lu with a sigh. "I was unable to completely understand the heart of man. After spending too much time in High Willow City and Qifeng Prefecture City, I underestimated the Humans of Three Gods Valley; they are different from those in the cities! Thus, I underestimated the Great Divine Venerable..."

In the cities, the Humans see the Divine Spirits as the parents of heaven and earth, with utmost respect.

But having been in the cities for too long, and with powerful Human elders to fend off the Evil, and temples to cleanse the Divine Spirits’ stray thoughts,

The Humans of Three Gods Valley, on the other hand, have a belief in the three Venerates... even if it means death, they probably would not hesitate.
