Chapter 1600: Chapter 1139: Godless Response (3K)

As the glaring white light gradually faded, over a thousand human players appeared in a pristine, arc-shaped space.

This was the preparation space for the [Eternal Throne] mission.

Here, the players would receive partial information and intelligence about this world.

At the center of this space, an image also popped up, depicting the anomaly occurring in the Heavy Blue World and the situation of the world’s powers.

However, most of the players did not pay attention to the intelligence provided by the preparation space, but rather, after entering the space.

They quickly looked at their [Friends List], or scanned their surroundings. Searching for a possibly present someone.

He Feng did just that, his first action upon entering the space was to look at the list. Then... he fell into a silence as deep as death.

As he and Yang Dong beside him exchanged glances, they both saw shock and grief in each other’s eyes.

The name [Uncle Eight-direction] in the friends list is still gray... Li Changhe... he did not enter the mission...

"He might have been held up by something..."

"Or he’s too injured to enter the mission..."

They did not want to believe in his death, but could not even deceive themselves.

If Li Changhe hadn’t met with any trouble, he would have made it here no matter what, even if all that was left of him was his head, just to tell them that he’s still alive.

But reality was so cruel.

And in a corner of the preparation space, the white-haired girl with an indistinct face also bowed her head, falling into a silence as deep as death.

This moment... she lost the last reason to retain her humanity, no longer resisting the erosion of Divinity.

"So it is..." Tears fell along her white hair, hitting the ground and turning into a blooming ice lotus: "You liar!"

Divinity soared rapidly, at the end of the Heavenly Road, the Frozen Throne began to form. In no time, she would be swiftly brought to the throne by that uncontrollable Divinity, becoming a true Demigod. Not her anymore, but Him...

The number of players who realized Li Ba was not in the space was growing.

The once bustling space also fell silent.

Until, a stifled chuckle that could no longer be contained rose.

"Pfft!" A player, whose face was hidden but was clearly Caucasian, laughed: "It seems like the title of the strongest under Demigods will finally change hands."

"Li Ba finally died. Died by a forbidden power, quite fitting for his name!"

"After his death, human powerhouses have surged forth like crazy. He died well!"

"No good end comes for a brutal tyrant."

Unlike [Eternal Tang Dynasty] which required mission items to enter, the updated [Eternal Throne] only required qualifications to enter.

This allowed many foreign organizations to join. And they no longer hid their hatred for Li Changhe.

In [Netherworld Ninety-Nine Cities], Li Changhe violently oppressed Black Palace and Round Table, even imperiously demanding the Black Palace hand over the head of Tyrant Washington.

This caused players from other countries to hold great resentment towards Li Changhe, but they also feared his strength and capacity for action, daring not to offend him.

Li Ba was that kind of monster who elevated deterrence to the extreme, dictatorial and powerful. It seemed like anyone who defied him would be killed.

But now that it was certain he was truly dead, the deterrence of his past dissipated into nothing!

"It really is a pity, I had wanted to let him witness who the true modern-day General is. It seems that won’t be possible." A laugh echoed through the crowd.

Drawing the attention of many players, the speaker turned out to be King Lear, the strong contender of the Book of Heaven cultivated by the Tianyan Association, who became the modern-day General in the Heavenly Palace Battlefield!

King Lear looked towards the distant white-haired girl and sneered: "Everything you were looking forward to has come to nothing. Without him, humans will only grow stronger!"

Then, he scanned his surroundings: "And you all, will witness the arrival of the true General!"

He was about to break through to Demigod, to prove his meteoric rise. He would break through to Demigod the moment he entered the world, shocking all!

"The modern-day General? Do you think you’re worthy?" Wuji’s cold voice sounded. The Xuanyuan Divine Sword bearer stepped out of the crowd, his Xuanyuan Divine Sword Gold Light shining brightly: "Then let’s see if killing you will let me become a Demigod!"

Great Wall players drew their weapons, their black cloaks rustling without wind.

"Wuji, as the Human Emperor, are you really trying to provoke internal strife among humans?" A knight clad in black armor chuckled lowly: "We don’t agree with that."

And a strong player from the Black Palace also smiled leisurely: "Wuji, do you also want to be the strongest under Demigods? To be that brutal tyrant? Too bad, after all, they’re only under Demigods..."

"Wuji, are you and the Great Wall ready to face three Demigods at once?" An official player from the Northern Europe War God scoffed.

The high-level player from Round Table, Black Spear Knight.

The high-level player from Black Palace, Hans.

The high-level player from North Covenant, Singer.

They all should have ascended to Demigod, but restrained themselves, planning to break through right after entering the mission.

Now, the three of them joined forces and even dared to challenge the Human Emperor.

However, someone spoke coldly: "How audacious, dare to offend the General and the General’s wife! Is being a Demigod that remarkable? We have killed them before!"

Behind him, over twenty unrecorded unknown players suddenly had a flash of space on their bodies, changing into Great Tang armor.

At the same time, they tied white cloth on their helmets.

They were all Great Tang players, and also the subordinates of the Tian Ce General.

Now, without hesitation, they were willing to dress in mourning clothes and seek vengeance for the General!

The leading officer also exuded a pressure not inferior to the three, his strength on par with them!

This made the atmosphere in the space even heavier, as if a great battle was on the edge of erupting.

The Great Wall had two powerhouses close to breaking through to Demigod, the Great Tang might have one, and the Black Palace, Round Table, North Covenant members each had one, as did the Tianyan Association.

When the battle truly breaks out, the outcome is indeed uncertain.

But they all knew that the path to become a Human Emperor was extremely difficult. Wuji was still unable to immediately ascend to demigod.

Even if the other two became gods, they would not outnumber their own side.

"Then let’s wait and see!"

However, the white-haired girl remained indifferent, as if nothing that happened could disturb her emotions.

The next second, as the task briefing ended, all the players were dispatched to various locations in the Heavy Blue World.

It was also at that moment, several powerhouses tried to break through to demigods upon entering the Heavy Blue World.

Terrifying forces connected through the void, and magnificent thrones began to manifest.

They shouted and cheered, recklessly unleashing their might!

At this moment, humanity is about to witness the emergence of several demigods!

"Hahaha, behold the birth of divinities!"

"No one can suppress me any longer, I am a divinity!"

Yet Xiao Nan appeared in the Church of the Ocean Goddess, when she was teleported into the church that worshipped her.

The priests, bishops, and knights of the church were all stunned at the sudden appearance of the white-haired girl.

Then, astonishment turned into delight, as they knelt down to welcome the descent of the goddess to the mortal world.

An elderly bishop was even in tears, praising the arrival of the divinity.

But Xiao Nan remained unresponsive, her gaze turned to the void, her Frozen Throne was already established. This was the world where her believers resided, the endless faith brought by masses of believers was pushing her towards the throne.

’Is this the plan of the Book of Heaven?’

She indifferently observed everything, as if it all had nothing to do with her.

Until... a figure appeared before her. There was finally a crack in her indifferent expression.

The projection in the void also halted before the throne.

And in the Church of the Ocean Goddess, devout believers saw a man suddenly appear in the church, and he quickly walked towards the goddess.

Under the angry and astonished gazes of all the believers, he embraced the goddess they worshipped and revered into his arms!

"I’m sorry, girl..." Li Changhe whispered.

The white-haired girl in his embrace just silently looked at him, and slowly extended her hand to clasp around his lower back.

Then she bit forcefully into his shoulder, not holding back, biting down with full strength, making even Li Changhe’s physique bleed profusely.

Tears and blood soaked his shoulder.

"Liars!" The indifferent goddess finally showed an emotional fluctuation.

The originally indifferent and emotionless noble sanctuary was gradually crumbling, revealing all that she hid within...

She bit hard into Li Changhe’s shoulder, venting her grievances and hatred, yet held him tightly, not allowing him an inch of separation.

Li Changhe gently caressed the girl’s disheveled white hair on her back, feeling her increasingly slender body.

He whispered, "Girl, you’ve changed so much, lost so much weight..."

Li Changhe embraced the girl tightly, then he looked towards the void.

Towards the thrones that had appeared in the void.

Violent maliciousness filled the entire void, with blue flames flickering, causing the newly ascended demigods to change their expression.

They all knew what that blue flame signified.

And they all felt that terrifying malice!

He’s still alive! He’s still alive!

Li Ba is still alive, and he’s in this world!

In theory, they had already ascended to demigods, they just needed to eliminate the attacking demons to be safe.

But now, it feels like they’ve been targeted by something even more terrifying than the demons.

Merely a human player who hasn’t reached demigod made these newly ascended demigods feel fear.

The strongest below demigods? Who said that?

Why does it seem like even after becoming demigods, they are still no match for Li Ba?

Even King Lear, who was the most boastful, now only felt a chilling sense of danger.

Is this the anomaly?

Is this the stepping stone of the past?

He actually survived, and what’s more, he became so powerful!

King Lear should have immediately headed to where Li Ba was, to have a direct confrontation to determine who is the true General, to prove his own strength and identity.

But the rising sense of danger made it impossible for him to take a step.

And then, a voice echoed in the void, plain in tone, yet everyone could feel the malice in it.

"It’s been a long time, everyone."

"You’ve all changed a lot, too."

Li Changhe scoffed, "You’ve grown very bold!"

At that moment, the gods withdrew, no deity responded.
