The interior of the floating city is not dead, but there are many living creatures wandering around.
These living creatures are very similar to the Moon God believers that Xu Cheng once met in the Moon Temple, but the Moon God believers here have been twisted and deformed, and they are not human at all, like zombies that have lost their minds.
As soon as Xu Cheng appeared, these distorted Moon God believers seemed to sense something. They all raised their heads and looked at him, and roared one after another from their mouths.
Xu Cheng was not polite, and his whole body emitted a dazzling light. Countless thunder and lightning fell from the sky, sweeping through the floating city like a violent storm, not sparing any corner.
Countless wandering mutant monsters were directly blasted to ashes by lightning, and the entire floating city was bathed in lightning.
Xu Cheng cleared away the miscellaneous soldiers and went all the way to the palace in the deepest part of the floating city.
What comes into view is a giant laurel tree thousands of meters high. The trunk at the bottom of the laurel tree has grown into a building. Xu Cheng can imagine how harmonious and beautiful it once was. Now the entire laurel tree is close to withering, and countless twisted roots are like this. Like tangled tentacles.
It was still squirming slowly, obviously having vitality.
Xu Cheng did not rush in, but made preparations first. Although Yueshen was not good at fighting, the God-Shattering Edge might be in the opponent's hands. Even a child holding a firearm could still pose a threat to adults. .
Xu Cheng now has seven powers in his body. In addition to chaos, life, destruction, and pain, the remaining three powers of Vulcan, God of War, and Immortality still retain the residual consciousness of the previous master. .
Now that Xu Cheng himself has become a god, he can slowly purify the remaining consciousness in his power without resorting to the power of Elizabeth and Amaterasu.
He has been doing this since he came back from the past. The power of pain has been purified in the past, and now the power of Vulcan has been almost purified. There are two powers left. If you want to use them in the short term, you may need to borrow a dog to manage them. the power of.
After making enough preparations, Xu Cheng started to act. He had already sensed that the Moon God was in this palace.
boom!
The closed palace door was broken by a bolt of lightning. With the dazzling light, Xu Cheng flew into the palace like the sun, dispelling the deep darkness inside.
Countless tree roots squirmed in the darkness, and when the lightning struck, they were like insects left in the sun, and fled in panic.
Xu Cheng went all the way to the center of the palace and finally saw the Moon God.
She sat on a seat made of countless tree roots, her hair disheveled, and her dress almost grew with the tree roots.
What attracted Xu Cheng's attention the most was that the Moon God was holding a black sword tightly in his hand, absorbing all the light like a black hole.
God-Shattering Edge!
The weapon Xu Cheng had lost for tens of thousands of years finally appeared in his eyes again.
He immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Whether the Blade of the Broken God was really hidden on the moon was just a guess by him and Qiu Gongyue. They originally just wanted to go and look for it. Of course, everyone would be happy to find it.
The movement Xu Cheng made was not small, and the Moon God had already sensed it.
She slowly raised her head, revealing a flawless face.
However, her face looked like a ghost at this time, her face was pale, her eyes were dark, and there were a lot of blue veins on her forehead and sides.
Xu Cheng had already guessed that the Moon Goddess was most likely to have an accident. Now that he saw it, she had indeed completely lost her mind.
However, he still tried to ask.
"Can you understand me?"
Luna's answer was straightforward. She stood up from her seat, and the dress that was connected to the roots of the tree was torn apart.
She picked up the God-Shattering Edge in her hand and struck Xu Cheng with a slash.
A black light flashed past, and Xu Cheng, sensing the danger, immediately dodged to the side.
A crescent-shaped black sword energy burst out and flew a few meters away from Xu Cheng, leaving an inch of broken space.
The black sword energy gradually expanded and soon shattered the palace. It flew outward along the floating city, cutting through all materials in its path.
Finally, the sword energy expanded to dozens of kilometers, flew out of the floating city, and disappeared into the darkness of the secret realm.
Seeing that the blow missed, Moon God swiped his sword again, and the black sword energy spread rapidly outward like water waves.
Xu Cheng dodged again, and his sword energy easily cut through half of the palace, cutting countless buildings in the floating city into two pieces.
Yue Shen attacked one after another, but Xu Cheng easily dodged each time.
He also saw that the God-Shattering Edge was extremely powerful, but it was not suitable for use by the Moon Goddess because her speed was too slow and she could not hit the enemy at all.
Seeing that Xu Cheng had been dodging, Luna finally gave up on using the God-Breaking Edge. She raised her hand high, and countless moonlights gathered out of thin air, forming a bright moon in the palm of her raised hand.
The scattered moonlight carried terrible destructive power. Every ray of moonlight was a sharp weapon, easily piercing the entire palace with holes.
Before Xu Cheng took action, the palace was about to be demolished by the Moon God himself.
He doesn't even need to enter the body of the God of Thunder, and can easily resist the moonlight with his body.
Lightning flashed above the floating city, and countless electrons were converging into a thundercloud.
The Moon God's raised hand waved down at Xu Cheng, and the bright moon condensed by the moonlight turned into a bright light, which exploded towards Xu Cheng, much faster than when she used her sword energy.
Xu Cheng did not dodge and used his Vulcan power, his eyes also shot out two beams of terrifyingly high temperature.
The strong light and the beam collided together, instantly erupting into an extremely terrifying tsunami of energy. The shock wave enveloped the dazzling light and spread in all directions.
boom!
There was a loud noise, and the entire palace finally couldn't bear the confrontation between the two gods and was destroyed.
The shock wave shattered the roots of the giant laurel tree, and the giant tree, thousands of meters high, began to collapse.
The shock wave did not stop and raged along the surface of the floating city, destroying countless buildings above. Then Laurel collapsed and hit the floating city heavily.
Boom!
The entire floating city was tilted by the laurel and swaying in the air.
In the ruins of the palace, the confrontation between Xu Cheng and Yueshen has not stopped.
The Moon Goddess controlled the moonlight and intertwined it into a huge net, attacking Xu Cheng from all directions and restricting his movements. At the same time, she activated her own power and summoned a huge energy tide.
This is the moon's ability to evolve. Every time it passes by the earth, its huge gravitational pull will always cause tidal fluctuations.
The summoned energy tide covered the sky and the sun, leaving Xu Cheng with nowhere to hide, and submerged Xu Cheng in the blink of an eye.
The Moon God opened a pair of black eyes and guided the tide to rotate, preparing to completely suppress the enemy.
But soon she discovered that the energy tide was rotating in the opposite direction under the influence of some invisible force, and collapsed in the next second.
Xu Cheng emerged from it, and he controlled the magnetic field, which in turn suppressed the Moon God.
Luna felt that the surrounding air became thicker, and huge pressure like mountains came from all directions, almost suppressing her to the point of being unable to move.
Although she lost her mind, Luna's instinct was still there. She waved the God-Shattering Edge in her hand and cut a huge hole in the magnetic field.
Of course Xu Cheng would not just watch the Moon God escape. He used the Fire God's power of Soul Judgment to accurately hit the Moon God.
His soul was burned, and there was a trace of pain on Moon God's ghost-like face, and his movements paused.
The next moment, the thunderclouds that had been brewing in the sky for a long time suddenly lit up with a bright light that could almost dispel the darkness of the secret realm.
Boom!
Along with the earth-shattering thunder, within a few tenths of a second, thousands of thunderbolts fell from the sky and hit the Moon God.
The moon god was submerged in the thunder and plummeted to the ground.
The entire floating city, which was already tilting, began to tremble violently under the bombardment of thousands of powerful thunders, and then fell apart into countless large and small fragments, falling from the sky.
At this moment, millions of people in the entire secret territory could see the bright moon in the sky extinguished, replaced by endless thunder, as if foreshadowing something.
After the thunder disappeared, the secret realm fell into eternal night again, but soon you could feel strong vibrations coming from the ground.
The destroyed floating city fell to the earth, including the moon god who was struck by lightning.
Countless huge craters were smashed into the ground, and the largest crater was scorched black by lightning. The moon god lay at the bottom of the crater, covered with bruises.
However, her hand was still holding the God-Shattering Blade tightly, and she subconsciously wanted to support herself to stand up.
Xu Cheng descended from the sky, stepped on Luna's wrist, and directly trampled her hand into the ground.
The Moon Goddess was still struggling, but Xu Cheng released a sharp blade mixed with thunder and fire, which instantly penetrated the Moon Goddess's chest and pinned her to the ground.
Luna was convulsed by the electric shock, and due to her serious injuries, she finally couldn't bear it and passed out.
After confirming that Luna was unconscious, Xu Cheng bent down and snatched the God-Shattering Edge from her hand.
The moment the God-Shattering Edge took hold, Xu Cheng's expression changed and he immediately let go.
The Blade of the Broken God fell to the ground, half of it inserted into the ground.
Xu Cheng's face was solemn.
The moment he came into contact with the God-Shattering Edge, he could feel an extremely strange force trying to invade his palm from the hilt, like some kind of curse.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly, otherwise he would have been hit.
Having been separated from the God-Shattering Edge for tens of thousands of years, Xu Cheng didn't know what happened to this weapon to become what it is now.
He turned to look at the unconscious Moon Goddess. Could it be that this goddess was cursed because she had lost her mind like this?
After thinking for a while, Xu Cheng reached out to grab the God-Shattering Blade again, but this time, he used the power of destruction.
The palm of his hand clenched the hilt of the sword, and the cursed power inside tried to invade Xu Cheng's body, but he suffered a devastating blow the next moment.
The power of the curse contained in the Blade of the Broken God was swept away by the power of destruction.
Without their roots, the mutated spirits and ominous aura within the entire secret realm are quickly disappearing.
Not only that, even the abnormalities on Luna's body are disappearing, the veins on her forehead are disappearing, and the pale complexion is also recovering, but due to the injury, her complexion is still a little pale.
Xu Cheng found that his guess was correct. Moon God's abnormal condition was related to the God-Shattering Edge.
"Um……"
After a long time, the unconscious Luna finally woke up.
She opened her black and white eyes with a look of confusion, but immediately she groaned and let out a painful groan.
"Your injuries are serious. It's best not to move."
Luna was startled when she heard the voice of a strange man. She endured the pain and turned her head to look.
Xu Cheng was sitting on a piece of gravel, pouring his power into the Shattering God's Edge. When he saw the Moon God looking over, he put the black sword into his body.
"careful……"
Luna couldn't help but remind him: "That weapon is dangerous...it has an evil curse on it."
"The curse has been removed by me."
Xu Cheng came to the Moon God and asked condescendingly: "Where did you get this weapon?"
The reason why he didn't kill Luna while she was unconscious was because he wanted to find out the situation.
Luna did not answer, but whispered: "Who are you?"
She felt that she had been confused for too long. When she woke up, her weapon was taken away and she was seriously injured. The man in front of her must be the murderer, so of course she would be wary.
"My name is Xu Cheng, you must have never heard of my name."
Xu Cheng did not hide his identity: "However, I once prevented the resurrection of the Great Lord with the Shadow Goddess. You should have heard of me."
He heard Qiu Gongyue say that the Moon God is a god who does not like fighting and hides on the moon and does not care about worldly affairs.
However, after Xu Cheng returned, she left the moon and returned to her hometown, so she should have heard of Xu Cheng's deeds.
After hearing Xu Cheng's words, Luna's eyes widened in surprise: "Are you Xinghu's father?"
This time it was Xu Cheng's turn to be surprised: "Do you know Xinghu?"
"I am a friend of Xinghu..."
Luna gasped a few times with a pale face: "The God-Breaking Blade was asked by Xinghu to hide it. If you are really her father, then it will be returned to its original owner."
Xu Cheng felt like he had beaten his own family for a moment. He originally regarded Yue Shen as his enemy, but he didn't expect that she turned out to be his daughter's friend.
Xu Cheng used his life power to treat Moon God's injuries, and at the same time asked, "How did you become so irrational?"
Moon God smiled bitterly: "It's a long story. I didn't expect that there was such a powerful curse hidden in the Blade of the Broken God."
During the God's Choice War, Moon God returned to his hometown and happened to meet Xinghu who was traveling around at that time.
The two parties hit it off and became very good friends. Luna also invited Xinghu to be a guest on the moon many times.
From Xing Hu's mouth, Moon God only knew about her parents, that is, the existence of Xu Cheng and the Shadow Goddess, until they joined forces to prevent the heroic deeds of the Great Lord's resurrection.
Later, the God's Chosen War caused turmoil and war in the world. The moon god could not stay any longer and returned to the moon again.
Hundreds of years later, when the Chosen War was coming to an end, Star Lake threw the God-Shattering Edge onto the moon, with a piece of her mind attached to it, hoping that the Moon God could help preserve the weapon and return it to her father in the future.
Of course, Luna would not refuse a request from a friend.
However, neither Xinghu nor Moon God knew that a fatal curse had been placed on the Blade of the Broken God by the Saint. The Moon God had already been cursed when he held the Blade of the Broken God.
By the time she discovered it, it was too late, so she could only resist the curse. Although she saved her life, her mind became unclear.
Because she lost her mind, the curse spread, most of her believers went crazy, and the entire secret realm ushered in the end.
However, despite her madness, the Moon Goddess still has instincts and can respond to the calls of believers, so when believers perform sacrifices, she will appear driven by instincts and give strength to believers.
After hearing Luna's story, Xu Cheng understood why the group of Luna believers he met in New York were crazy. It turned out that they believed in a cursed god.
"I'm so sorry. I apologize to you on Xinghu's behalf."
Xu Cheng had to wipe his daughter's butt: "If she hadn't thrown the God-Breaking Edge to the moon, you wouldn't have been cursed. I will try my best to compensate you for being tortured for so long."
"It doesn't matter, Xinghu and I are good friends, and she doesn't know there is a curse on the Blade of the Broken God, and I also want to thank you for helping me remove the curse."
Luna shook her head. Under Xu Cheng's treatment, her complexion became much better and her injuries healed quickly.
She hesitated for a moment and asked in a soft voice: "Uncle... how is Xinghu doing now?"
Being called uncle by a goddess, Xu Cheng felt quite subtle.
However, Yueshen and Xinghu are good friends, and he is Xinghu's father, so there is nothing wrong with his uncle.
Xu Cheng helped Yueshen up from the ground, and then sighed: "She is missing."
He told the Moon God about the outcome of the God's Chosen War and the current situation.
Luna fell into silence after hearing this. She didn't expect that after so many years of confusion, the situation in her hometown was still so bad, and she never stopped for a moment.
After healing the Moon God, Xu Cheng was ready to run away.
His visit this time was a bad visitor, which left a bad impression on the moon god. It was better not to continue to hang around in front of others. The matter of compensation can wait until later.
Seeing Xu Cheng about to say goodbye, the Moon God stopped him and prepared to return to his hometown with him to fight against the Saint and the Golden Supreme King together, while also searching for the whereabouts of Xinghu.
"You'd better stay on the moon to recuperate."
Xu Cheng shook his head and refused. He knew that the Moon God was a god who didn't like fighting very much, so there was no need to force others to participate in these troublesome things.
"No, you heard me."
Luna looked serious: "I didn't like fighting in the past and thought that nothing would happen if I hid. But after so many years, there are still constant disputes in my hometown. Even if I hide on the moon, it's not clean. So I don't want to escape anymore. Maybe help It will be a better choice for you to defeat the enemy and completely solve the root cause of the problem.”
Seeing the determination in her eyes, Xu Cheng nodded slowly and did not refuse again.
Although the Moon Goddess is not good at fighting, she retains the power of her heyday and is much stronger than the weak gods on earth.
At critical moments, more combat power means more protection. Xu Cheng has always believed in fighting in groups rather than fighting alone.
After making the decision, the two returned to the capital of Silver Moon Kingdom and met Nagumo Narumi and Dinah who stayed here.
Xu Cheng introduced Yue Shen to them and explained the misunderstanding between them.
Dinah was a little embarrassed when she saw the Moon God. She and Nagumo Narumi were still wearing the female crowns and clothes sewn for them by the Silver Moon Kingdom, which completely robbed her of the throne of her followers.
Nagumo Narumi, on the other hand, does not feel guilty at all. In her opinion, the emperor's position is occupied by capable people. She is a capable person, so why can't she sit?
After Luna knew this, not only was he not angry, but he smiled and said: "Since you all like this position, then this country will be given to you as a meeting gift."
To her, it doesn’t matter whether there are as many believers as she wants.
Nagumo Narumi and Dinah looked at each other in surprise. They were mentally prepared that Luna would be angry, but they didn't expect that the entire country would be given away as a gift.
The Moon God even gave them a surprise. With a wave of his sleeve, the secret realm that was originally in eternal night suddenly turned into daytime, from a gloomy ghostland to a paradise.
But in this case, those believers who have evolved big eyes to adapt to the dark night will suffer, and they will not be able to see clearly under the stimulation of light.
In the end, Xu Cheng took action and used his life power to forcibly change the organs of these three million people back into the appearance of ordinary people.
After taking care of these little things, Xu Cheng took them out of the secret realm and returned to Earth.
…
Turn back the time, back to half a month ago.
After the saint was repulsed by Qiugong Yue, he had to return to the headquarters of the Celestial Clan, which had been converted into a church of the god.
The Celestial Clan has been destroyed. The Saint no longer trusts outsiders after being stabbed in the back by Xinghu, so he has not recruited any more subordinates. Now there are only two members of the entire divine sect, namely him and the Golden Supreme King.
Returning to the church, the Saint discovered that the Golden High King had returned.
He was sitting on his own throne, holding his cheek with one hand and closing his eyes to rest.
There seemed to be no change in appearance, but the Saint saw through his state at a glance and said in surprise: "Are you injured?!"
After the Golden Supreme King's power is restored to 80%, even among the gods, as long as he does not encounter the Shadow Goddess in his heyday, he is still invincible, let alone in this modern age where the gods are withered, someone can actually be injured. he.
Huang Jin slowly opened his eyes: "He is the successor of the God Killer. He has become a god."
The saint's expression changed. Ordinary gods were no match for the Golden Supreme King. The heir of the Godslayer was able to injure the gold, which meant that she was another shadow goddess.
Originally, he felt that his side had a huge advantage and had collected 99% of the World Tree fragments.
In the blink of an eye, the situation took a turn for the worse.
The Shadow Goddess plus the heirs of the Godslayer, plus those old gods, the Saints, and the Gold couldn't hold it together.
"Then it seems the plan will be moved forward."
The Saint took out the fragments of the World Tree from his body, which he had snatched from Amaterasu.
Huang Jin looked at the fragments of the World Tree in his hand and asked: "There are still two fragments left, can that be done?"
"I didn't think it would work at first."
The saint raised the World Tree fragment in his hand and looked at it in front of his eyes, with a hint of memory in his eyes: "But someone set an example for me and let me know one thing. Even if one or two fragments are missing, The resurrection ceremony can be forcibly initiated."
"What's the success rate?"
"At least 70%."
With a 70% success rate, it's time for them to give it a try.
Because they really didn't have the time or strength to snatch back the two remaining World Tree fragments.
"Then start preparing."
Huang Jin stood up from his seat and looked down at the saint: "If we fail, we won't have another chance."
"I know."
The saint held the fragment in his hand tightly: "So we can only risk our lives."
He smiled again: "But don't worry, the God-Shattering Edge that can destroy the World Tree has long been thrown into the universe. As long as the ceremony begins, no one can stop us."
Huang Jin was silent for a few seconds and suddenly said: "Having confidence is a good thing, but you seem to fail every time you are confident?"
The saint's expression suddenly froze.
