In Chang'an City, Tai Chi Hall of Daming Palace.
"That's...Thor's thunder!"
Looking in shock at the huge dragon turtle roaring in pain under the body of "Tianchu", Varyag, who was fighting Zhong Rengui, stopped instinctively and turned his eyes to the battlefield that was almost impossible to see with the naked eye.
As the favored person of God King Odin and an undead possessing the "body of a heroic spirit", Varyag is very sure that it is the power of the Asa Protoss, and it is also the power of the Asa Protoss' strongest warrior - Thor, the God of Thunder!
"When did he steal the power?"
In an instant, the surprise in Varang's eyes turned into calmness, and his voice also became deeper.
"Is it the last time you fought me?"
Varyag, or the Nordic God King Odin, looked up at Zhao Guizhen himself in the sky above his head, but his calm eyes revealed unconcealable appreciation.
Even though He repeatedly overestimated everything that happened in this mysterious land.
But Zhao Guizhen succeeded in stealing the thunder power of the Asa Protoss with just one confrontation across the long river of time, which far exceeded Odin's expectations.
Even though he could see that Zhao Guizhen had already embarked on the path of exploring and stealing divine power before stealing the power of thunder, this did not mean that the power of the Asa clan was so easy to imitate and steal.
"Exhibiting divine power without taking on the responsibilities of a god seems to be a possibility to avoid 'Twilight of the Gods'."
After a brief moment of thinking, Odin's will returned to the long river of time, leaving only a confused Varyag still in place, not knowing what happened just now.
"What the hell is that?"
"That thing is so scary!"
…
Unlike the ignorant Varyag, Zhong Rengui, who was fighting with him a second ago, woke up in an instant, and the other four kiddies who were watching the fun all looked incredulous.
Because they are both ghosts and gods, the five ghosts with the name of "God of Plague" can clearly detect Odin's arrival.
That huge and ancient mythical atmosphere is like a giant god coming out of the ancient mountains and seas, causing a fleeting wave in the long river of time.

"Master?"
Ziyang, who was also awakened by the power of "Tianchu" and was carried on Li Gang's back, turned his head and saw the mournful and screaming giant black turtle outside the city.
"It seems the winner has been decided."
Li Gang, who was carrying Ziyang on his back, did not look back in the direction outside the city. He just raised his head and stared at the sky above Daming Palace.
With his current level of cultivation, it was impossible to determine who would win and who would lose.
But from the rising and declining momentum, and the gradually shrinking thunder, Li Gang knew that the battle that lasted for most of the night was coming to an end.
[Master, I will not let you down]
Turning his head silently, Ziyang's expressionless face seemed to reveal some strange sadness.
Because unlike Li Gang who knew nothing, he knew very well what the end of this battle meant.
[Fu Lu Dao will not decline like this, I am here to assure you! 】
Ziyang is Zhao Guizhen's direct disciple, and the only one among all his disciples who has inherited all his Taoism and magical powers.
But few people know that before Ziyang became a disciple of Zhao Guizhen, he was actually the adopted son of a gangster.
Or to be more precise, Ziyang is the child that the criminal thief bought from the dental shop in order to "provide for himself in old age".
For people living in this era, buying and selling children is not a difficult thing to understand, because there are too many farmers in this era who have given birth but cannot afford to raise them.
Different from the elite education advocated by later generations, having many children and grandchildren has always been highly advocated in ancient Chinese society.
The reason is simply that if one of the many descendants is outstanding, it will lead to the prosperity of the whole family, and this will be true even in future generations.
The only difference is that with the development of the times and changes in people's concepts, Chinese people in the 21st century have gradually begun to pay attention to the importance of quality education, and no longer choose to "gamble" as before.
Unfortunately, Ziyang is a product of this ancient concept. Because the eldest son failed to obtain fame and the second son had a too loose personality, Ziyang was born as the youngest son.
Unfortunately, due to his poor family background, Ziyang was sold to a local dental shop by his parents in the name of "supporting the family" before he showed enough talent.
If things develop on this track, if nothing unexpected happens, Ziyang may be bought into a government office by some noble family as a servant, and then live his life in peace.
However, the reason why an accident is an accident is because it comes so unexpectedly.
Just when Ziyang was receiving the training required to be a servant in Yahang, a passing gangster discovered his talent and bought him from Yahang for a huge price of an ingot of gold.
In Jiang Yang's own words - it's a pity to be a slave even though he has such intelligence and talent. I just don't have someone to support me until I die, so you can be my adopted son!
Ever since, the ignorant Ziyang became the adopted son of a gangster and officially started his extraordinary life.
Perhaps he sincerely wanted an adopted son to take care of him in his old age, or perhaps he just took a fancy to Ziyang's talent, so Jiang Yang taught him all he had learned in his life.
Until Ziyang stumbled and met an evil practitioner in Tanzhou who absorbed souls and practiced incantations. Then he followed his lead and found his hiding place.
I don't know whether it was luck or misfortune, but just when Ziyang was about to be killed by the evil monk, the gangster who had been saying that he wanted him to take care of him in his old age actually took the initiative to show up and block the knife for him.
Witnessing his adoptive father's death for him, Ziyang, who had always been very cold and calm, broke out for the first time.
It was at that time that Zhao Guizhen, who had been traveling here, noticed Ziyang's sudden explosion, and saw the evil cultivator who was absorbed by Ziyang's soul to no avail, and instead was counterattacked by evil magic.
"Are you willing to practice Taoism with me?"
After a brief silence, Zhao Guizhen looked at Ziyang with a face full of despair, and spoke his first words after the two met.
"You are a very talented child, but if you cannot control your talent, evil practitioners like this who are spying on you will come to your door again sooner or later."
"Following me will not only solve your physical problems, but also allow you to have enough food and clothing to bury your 'adoptive father'."
