Chapter 2458: Shen Qixue Awakens, Human Race's God of War
"Oh, is that so?" A lazy scoff came from deep underground. Then, boundless energy erupted, shaking the ground violently and tearing it in half.
As a massive crack appeared on the ground, light shone from within.
It was so bright that it felt like the sun was rising from underground.
The unparalleled aura from underground shocked all the Monarchs present.
Even the rage qi and murderous qi of the God May Cry Domain grew restless.
Everyone looked at the massive shining crack on the ground, only to see a man in white robes and messy hair, wielding a spear, rose to the sky from the ground. He had a lazy grin on his face.
"Shen Qixue!"
Kong Feixing, Ming Bujue, Wen Tianfeng, and the others were surprised.
The man with the unparalleled aura was their target.
He was the God of War of the human race, Shen Qixue.
"Impossible! You're in slumber, and with that attack, there's no way you can survive. Wait, that's the..."
Kong Feixing's expression shifted when he saw a little pagoda floating above Shen Qixue's head. The little pagoda was shining brightly, and the light transformed into multiple layers of barriers.
"The Seven Treasured Pagoda?"
"That's the Source Weapon of the Great God Baoluo!"
Great God Baoluo was one of the Primal Gods and the one Shen Qixue killed. The Seven Treasured Pagoda was his trusty weapon that was born from the Source.
After Shen Qixue killed Grand God Baoluo, he got his hands on the pagoda. However, Kong Feixing, Wen Tianfeng, and others neglected that little fact.
It was because Shen Qixue refined the Seven Treasured Pagoda that he could use it to block all their attacks, saving him from being killed during his slumber.
"This pagoda sure is useful."
Shen Qixue yawned and then looked at Kong Feixing in the sky. "How dare the Forbidden Guards disturb my slumber? You people must have a death wish."
After that, he stepped forward and thrust his spear forward. "Bang!"
The spear energy gushed forward with endless light.
The powerful attack crushed the void in the area.
Kong Feixing's eyes widened nervously, and he channeled his Spatial Daoist law energy to the limit immediately as a counter.
"Void Tribulation!"
The Void Tribulation clashed with the spear energy.
After a huge explosion, Kong Feixing was blasted away with blood gushing from his mouth, and his face turned pale.
All the other Monarchs were shocked.
Kong Feixing was more than just a common Unlimited Great Dao. As a Forbidden Guard, he was extremely powerful, so much so that not even the Heavenly Sovereign could rival him.
Yet, he was blasted away with just one spear strike.
"Too bad I can't kill you with one strike. I think I need some time to adapt myself to this era's universal law," Shen Qixue said as he shook his head.
He had just awakened from his slumber and had yet to adapt to the universal law. Otherwise, he would have killed Kong Feixing with that attack.
"He's so powerful! Is this the true strength of Shen Qixue?" Kong Feixing gulped nervously and widened his eyes in horror.
The man who killed a Primal God was truly extraordinary.
"Don't be afraid. He has just awakened and isn't not as strong as he used to be. Now is the time to kill him," Wen Tianfeng announced.
Then, his aura rose sharply, and a terrifying aura swept across the field.
He was the first Forbidden Guard who woke up in this era. As he had gotten used to the universal law, his power had recovered to its peak, which rivaled an Overlord!
He was confident to kill Shen Qixue on the spot.
However, Shen Qixue laughed at his claims. "Unless the captain of the Forbidden Guard is here, whom I will be scared of, you people are not enough to kill me. Are you trying to kill me by making me laugh?"
Shen Qixue swung his spear forward again.
Domineering and boundless aura caught Wen Tianfeng and the others.
With the spear in hand, Shen Qixue's aura grew as boundless as the ocean.
It contained an earth-shattering battle intent.
The murderous qi and rage qi of the God May Cry Domain gathered upon him and were transformed into tens of thousands of weapons that were blasted forward at Wen Tianfeng and company.
Wen Tianfeng and the others immediately responded by blasting all kinds of attacks with Murderous Dao, Spatial Dao, Destiny Dao, and more.
The combined energy storm was so strong that it shook heaven and earth.
"I'll aid you!"
The Tempest King, one of the strongest Monarchs on the field, joined the fray.
She channeled her Thundergale, Yin Yang, and Universal energies to fight Ming Bujue and the others.
"Great!" Shen Qixue praised the Tempest King after seeing what she could do.
"Shen Qixue, die!" Wen Tianfeng roared as he thrust his trident forward.
The void collapsed as the trident ray crashed forward like the ocean. It contained the most domineering Daoist law energy.
It was Wen Tianfeng's strongest attack.
Seeing that, Shen Qixue narrowed his eyes. He wielded his spear high and then swung it down, carrying with it the might of a million mountains as it crashed down at the trident ray.
Following a tremendous explosion, the trident ray shattered.
Surges of Daoist law energy blasted outward.
Wen Tianfeng's expression shifted when he was pushed back.
"He has just awakened, yet he already possesses such power!
"Is one-tenth of his original strength already so powerful? Shen Qixue is indeed the God of War of the human race." Wen Tianfeng's expression turned grim.
The stronger Shen Qixue was, the more motivated Wen Tianfeng was to kill him.
"Die!"
Wen Tianfeng attacked again by swinging his trident in a flurry.
After nine trident thrusts and swings, the trident rays combined into a dazzling light that shook the Infiniverse.
"Sky Ask Art, Skywalker Nine Strikes!"
He locked on to Shen Qixue with the attack that possessed the power of an Overlord.
It felt like an entire Great Dao was crashing down!
Shen Qixue laughed at the attack. "Nice one! How about this? Battle Sky Art, Demon May Cry!"
He swung his spear forward, releasing unparalleled battle intent that surged into the sky.
Demons' cries could be heard in the void, and it sent chills down people's spines.
The moment the spear and trident clashed, the void around the area collapsed.
Then, someone was blasted away by the collision.
It was Wen Tianfeng!
Even though he used his strongest attack, he was no match for Shen Qixue.
Shen Qixue stood high in the air with unrivaled battle intent. With the spear in hand, he looked like the real God of War.
"Who else dares to challenge me?" Shen Qixue bellowed.
His aura was so powerful that it made the other Monarchs fall back.
They all looked at him with fear and deterrence.
"Even the Forbidden Guard is no match. Is he really someone who has just awakened? How scary!"
"The human race will be stronger with his addition!"
"This is going to be troublesome!"
The humans were exhilarated to have Shen Qixue on their side, and they all looked at him with reverence.
