Chapter 260 Is this...the Power of God?

The flickering fire burned half of the sky into a dark blue color.

The painful wails, the desperate roars, and the wails of relief resounded in the air.

The huge skeletons were entangled in the fire, and they kept making "crackling" sounds.

As the bones broke, wisps of white mist rose to the sky.

Strangely, they were not burned by the fire.

Instead, they passed through the terrifying fire of the underworld and slowly rose into the sky.

Countless figures emerged in the air.

Among them, there were young people wearing old-style uniforms. Although their clothes were slightly faded, they could not hide their former glory. There was still a vision of the future in their eyes.

A young girl, with her long hair fluttering in the wind, holding a yellowed book in her hand, looked into the distance with expectation, as if waiting for her lover to return.

On the other side, several middle-aged men and women stood side by side. They seemed to be talking in a low voice, talking about past family affairs, friends' recent situation, and small expectations for the future.

There were also some children playing and chasing in the firelight, their carefree laughter penetrated the barriers of time and space, bringing a rare vitality and hope to this scene shrouded in despair and wailing.

Their faces were tender and their smiles were bright, as if all the pain and misfortune had nothing to do with them, and they only lived in their own innocent world.

Figures emerged quickly, and those homeless ghosts all looked at Lu Changsheng quietly.

They were all lonely souls who were first sacrificed by the [God-making Ceremony].

For a long time, they all lived in a desperate purgatory.

Everyone wanted to see who was the person who finally freed them.

Lu Changsheng looked at the people in the air quietly for a long time without saying a word.

As the last ray of karmic fire was extinguished, all the figures, all the wailing, all the pain, all turned into nothingness.

All was silent.

...

Lu Changsheng's last blow was too sudden, and the people watching the battle had not had time to wipe the tears from their eyes, and everything was over.

The crowd was silent for a long time before some subtle discussions began to rise.

"We won..."

"Master Ghost Snake won..."

"We are saved!!"

As the crowd gradually recovered from their initial shock and fear, the shouts gradually became louder.

Soon, it turned into a frenzy of cheers.

Lu Changsheng stood in the air, accepting the praises of the whole city, but without the slightest bit of complacency.

No...

It's not over yet...

Li Junchang has been burned to slag, and those resentful souls have been freed.

Why?

I always feel that everything is not over yet.

Lu Changsheng's eyes quickly scanned the battlefield, and he did not notice anything unusual.

But the inexplicable sense of crisis in his heart became stronger and stronger.

"Ghost Snake..."

"God is invincible."

A cold voice sounded in Lu Changsheng's ears, making the hairs on his body stand up instantly.

He stared blankly at the front.

Li Junchang was clearly standing in front of him, but he never noticed it.

If Li Junchang had attacked him just now, he would have died.

Lu Changsheng twisted his body and retreated quickly, and slashed with his sword.

Li Junchang had no intention of dodging at all. His body instantly turned into nothingness, and the sharp black sword energy passed through his body, dragging a long black flame in the air.

"It's useless."

"I have ascended to godhood."

"No one in the world can kill me anymore."

"Even if you..."

"You can't."

Li Junchang's body slowly rose, and on his forehead, a strange fragment with seven-color streamers was slowly forming.

This fragment, about the size of an adult's thumb, was covered with delicate runes and patterns on the surface. They were obviously not artificially carved, but naturally generated, containing the oldest and purest laws of power in the universe.

The fragment seemed to contain a miniature universe, with stars moving and elements interweaving, forming a series of magnificent and complex pictures.

"I will come back to find you when I complete the promotion."

"Ghost Snake..."

Li Junchang's mouth curled up slightly, but his eyes were particularly cold. Lu Changsheng was very familiar with that look.

That was the look he gave to a dead person.

Lin Yuan and a group of venerables all looked at Lu Changsheng strangely.

In their field of vision, Lord Ghost Snake had just slashed a sword into the air for no reason, and he looked as if he was facing a great enemy.

Lu Changsheng had no time to explain to them. Li Junchang's body had gradually faded. What if he ran away?

It would be difficult to deal with him again!

[Netherworld Fire] and ordinary attacks could not hit him at all.

Li Junchang's state at this moment was a bit like Tu Luo's state before "coming".

He was clearly in front of me, but I could not feel his presence at all.

It was as if he did not belong to this world.

What exactly do "promotion" and "coming" mean?

Is it one of the skills of [Demigod]?

Lu Changsheng's mind was in a mess.

Seeing that Li Junchang's body had become translucent and the strange fragment became more and more dazzling, Lu Changsheng knew that he could not hesitate any longer.

"You can't leave." Lu Changsheng stared at Li Junchang's arrogant smile and said word by word, "Today, I will kill you."

"Even if you are a demigod..."

Li Junchang's body, which was already somewhat empty, trembled slightly, as if he had heard some particularly funny jokes.

"You are just a mortal, and you don't understand what a god is."

"Even I just understood what a real..."

Li Junchang paused.

His eyes widened, and he stared at Lu Changsheng's back.

The void seemed to be torn apart by an invisible force, and a deep and dark crack quietly emerged, gradually expanding, and slowly formed a majestic and spectacular gate to the underworld.

On both sides of the gate, there were intricate patterns carved, with ferocious ghosts roaring, shrill ghosts wailing, and endless dark abyss intertwined with bright stars, as if it was a microcosm of all life and death cycles in the universe.

With the appearance of the gate to the underworld, the whole world froze in an instant.

The cheers of the children stopped abruptly, the tears dripping from the woman stopped in the air, and the man's raised arms stopped swinging.

Even time was suspended.

"Behind the door, is the Hades Dharmakaya?"

"Is this... the power of God?"

"What price do I have to pay to borrow such power?"

Lu Changsheng swallowed his saliva subconsciously. Even through the door, he could feel the terrifying power behind the door. It was the power of destruction that surpassed everything and devoured the world.

At this moment, he was like holding Pandora's box, but he didn't know whether to open it.

At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded.

"Guest from outside the domain."

"I will help you stop Li Junchang from being promoted. Bring the fragment of the Godhead and complete our transaction."

Old Dragon?

Is this what you want?

Is that thing called the fragment of the Godhead?

Lu Changsheng did not doubt Yingtian's ability. If he said he could stop Li Junchang, then he could.

It is safer to complete the transaction with the old guy than to pay an unknown price to force it.

And it just so happens that I have a lot of questions to ask you...

Lu Changsheng closed his eyes slightly, waved his hands lightly, and stopped summoning [Dharmakaya of Hades].

The huge gate of Hades vanished with a bang.

Cheers sounded again, the hot wind blew in the face, and time resumed its flow.

Only Li Junchang still maintained a frightened expression, and stood there in a daze.

Behind him, two huge golden vertical pupils completely covered the entire sky.

Lu Changsheng stepped out and stood in front of Li Junchang.

He slowly stretched out his hand, crossed Li Junchang's translucent body, and grabbed the so-called fragment of the godhead.

Two opposite touches of cold and warm were transmitted to Lu Changsheng's palm.

"Ant..." Li Junchang's voice gradually trembled. He was like a desperate man who was held at the dead point by someone, and could only curse helplessly and violently.

"You can't kill me!"

"I am the master of this world!"

"No one can kill me!!"

"No one!!"

Lu Changsheng pulled back his palm fiercely, and the moment the fragment of the godhead left Li Junchang's body, his translucent body instantly solidified into a solid entity.

Puff!

The Ten Thousand Gods Sword entered from his chest, went straight to his back, and pierced through Li Junchang's body.

Warm blood flowed down the wound, soaking his whole body.

"Ah!" The long-lost pain pierced into Li Junchang's nerves, and his extremely pale face instantly became extremely distorted.

"Wait... wait... don't you... want to... know... the secret... of God?"

Li Junchang begged for mercy intermittently, and his voice became weaker and weaker.

"No." The swaying fire of Lu Changsheng slowly climbed up the master's Ten Thousand Gods Sword, like a poisonous snake looking for food, playing with its prey.

"I said..."

"Today, I will kill you."

Boom——

The fire of karma lingered, and everything burned.

The last remnant of Li Junchang was melted into ashes in an instant, and he completely disappeared between heaven and earth without even having time to wail.

The inexplicable sense of crisis disappeared.

There was only a faint smell of burning in the air.

Lu Changsheng waved his hand to put away his sword and took a deep breath.

After a long time.

He slowly raised his head and looked at the clear sky.

There was no one there, but Lu Changsheng always felt that he heard many voices.

There were men, women, old people, and children.

Their tones, accents, and voices were different.

But they were all silently saying the same thing.

"Thank you..."

"Thank you..."

"Thank you..."

...
