Under the night sky of the bustling metropolis, some awaken the power of light and darkness, wearing gorgeous armor and standing on top of buildings with dragon spears, overlooking the city.

Chapter 281 Do you want to take a break?
Dark Continent
At this moment, not only Li Jie, Jiang Ruochan and others, looking down from the sky, saw fighting everywhere on the battlefield spanning tens of thousands of kilometers, between humans and monsters, and monsters and unknown life forms.
The middle area of the Dark Continent was the battlefield of gods and demons in the last era.
Countless top-level powerful beings from the Age of Gods and ancient terrifying creatures are buried here. Their corpses formed forbidden areas tens or even hundreds of millions of years after their deaths.
These forbidden areas covered the mountains, rivers, land, and relics left over from the era of gods, polluting everything and giving birth to countless terrifying monsters.
At this moment, the high-level extraordinary people who were unable to fly stayed away from the large battlefield, clearing out the monsters in and around these ancient buildings and guarding the puppets.
The saints and eighth-level legends walking in the air would lead the monsters away or join forces to surround and kill them.
Demigod-level warriors, including Jiang Ruochan and others, target the terrifying creatures deep in the forbidden area that are dead but not yet stiff, and are born from the remains of gods.
"For the future of mankind, kill."
A sixth-order transcendent roared on the earth. After transforming into a demon, he stood up like a white tiger more than ten meters tall, and with a tiger roar, he pounced on a monster covered with spikes all over its body.
Puff! !
Sharp long spikes pierced through the protective force field and instantly killed the extraordinary person.
But immediately a black beam of light flashed and pierced the monster's head. In the distance, a woman in her thirties had slightly red eyes and the mirror in her hand was emitting a black light.
Extraordinary people died on the battlefield every moment, and countless monsters were killed.
Boom! The sky and earth roared, and the black and white "world" in front of them, which was still full of divine power, shook, and was shot down from the sky by a dazzling black hole figure.
Under the impact of the black and white field centered on the Light and Dark Divine Wheel, a small mountain range on the earth collapsed directly, causing a destructive impact comparable to the explosion of a million-power hydrogen bomb.
"Damn, it's a forbidden evil creature. Lao Hua, let's stay away from it."
Li Jie, who was just marveling at Jiang Ruochan's growing strength, was startled and hurriedly shouted to Hua Tian, who was helping him to kill the monster, to get out of the way to avoid being targeted by the monster that was revived from the remains of the god.
At the same time, in the sky thousands of kilometers away, an even more terrifying war was breaking out.
There was a violent destructive force everywhere, destroying the sky and the earth and turning them into chaos. Bloody thunder roared, turbulent currents roared, and from time to time a figure like a mountain range flashed by.
…………
In the hotel room, Zong Zheng Nanmo, who was wearing a handsome school uniform, sat at the table and asked curiously, "Jiang Hou, you suddenly came to me, what's the matter?"
Jiang Hou nodded and said directly: "Can your divination tell us which direction around the passage contains extraordinary mineral veins?"
"A vein of minerals."
"It's definitely not okay to just tell the fortune directly, otherwise it wouldn't be fortune telling but seeing into the future."
Zong Zheng Nanmo thought for a moment and said, "But if we change the method and use you or me as the location, it should be no problem to calculate the luck or good or bad luck of the day."
"That's fine."
Jiang Hou smiled and said, "I will have someone issue a long-term mission later. You and Shentu Niyu Jing will team up to search the north, south and east directions across the passage."
"The main target is those extraordinary mineral veins and resources. If you encounter powerful monsters and beasts during exploration, retreat first and wait for me to take action."
The loan of two million points allowed Jiang Hou to use a large amount of resources in advance to improve his strength.
After putting up the crab roe resource that was expected to sell for 300,000 points, Jiang Hou still owed the official 1.7 million points, and he needed to find a way to pay it back.
Otherwise, he won’t be able to exchange for top-level elemental crystals later.
As a powerful man in charge of a region, the fastest way for Lord Jiang to repay the loan is to explore and mine extraordinary resources.
The value of an extraordinary metal vein starts at tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of points. As long as he finds a few large veins and eliminates the surrounding threats, he will be able to repay the loan quickly.
Of course, he eats the meat, and Zong Zheng Nan Mo and even the entire Yidu branch can drink the soup.
Discovering the mineral veins, clearing the surrounding threats, mining and garrisoning will generate a lot of tasks, and this is a long process.
After finishing the meal and paying the bill, the two walked out of the restaurant. As they separated, Zong Zheng Nanmo suddenly shouted, "Jiang Hou, do you want to take a rest?"
"What?" Jiang Hou, who had just turned around and was about to leave, stopped.
Zong Zheng Nanmo scratched his hair and said, "I feel like you are so busy that you never seem to stop to rest. Actually, there is no need to do so. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up."
"If those demigods or even true gods can't hold on, our limited strength won't be of much use."
From the time he and Jiang Hou awakened until now, Jiang Hou gave Zong Zheng Nanmo the feeling that he was very busy, as if he was working 24 hours a day without stopping.
Although Lord Jiang did not show it on the surface, Zong Zheng Nanmo keenly felt that his spirit was always tense.
This might be the reason why his strength increased so rapidly and he reached the seventh level in a short period of time.
However, Zong Zheng Nanmo felt that it was unnecessary. People's life was not just about "cultivation". They were only eighteen years old, which was the prime age of youth.
Moreover, Taoism advocates a balance between relaxation and tension, and believes that things will turn into the opposite when they reach the extreme.
It is actually very easy for someone like Jiang Hou to get into trouble, especially as the increase in strength will be accompanied by the accumulation of pollution, and if one is not careful one may lose control, mutate, and become possessed.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Jiang Hou smiled, knowing what he was talking about.
"Besides, I am not used to putting my destiny in the hands of others. If possible, I still hope to grasp it myself."
Unlike Zong Zheng Nanmo who chose to resign himself to his fate due to his "lack of talent", Jiang Hou, who had a terrifying background, was ready to seize every opportunity to strengthen himself in the face of the impending catastrophe.
As long as one enters the demigod realm before the great catastrophe of civilization breaks out and completes the initial fusion of the power of the era, even a true god can be killed.
The catastrophe is a process; it will not destroy the world or the entire universe in an instant.
As long as he is given some time to go deep into the ruins and kill the revived true gods and ancient demons, his growth rate will be even more terrifying as he has the talent for evolution.
If he could surpass the true god, the main god, and step into the level of god king.
With the power of the nine epochs that he has gathered and integrated into one, his strength will reach an unprecedented and terrifying level, shocking the world.
By then, all the gods of creation and the way of heaven will be defeated.
Thinking of this, Jiang Hou's eyes suddenly became more determined. He waved to Zong Zheng Nanmo, turned around and left.
"What's going on?" Zong Zheng Nanmo looked at Jiang Hou's departing back, a little confused.
What happened in such a short moment? Why did he feel that Jiang Hou suddenly became more confident, giving him the illusion that he could defeat everything.
“I don’t understand.”
Zong Zheng Nanmo scratched his hair, shook his head and walked towards the school.
Up to now, he and his best friend Jiang Hou have actually drifted apart. The enemies, opponents, and problems they face are not on the same level.
Zong Zheng Nanmo was aware of this, so after returning, he rarely looked for Lord Jiang for fear of disturbing him.
