China, thousands of miles away.
"Brother Xiu, once we cross this Pantheon Mountain, we'll reach the Nine Provinces," Zhao Hao said, pointing to a towering mountain not far away.
He was accompanied by three women, two of whom were former maids of the Hehuan Sect, and the other was the daughter of the city lord of the Giant Cauldron Immortal City.
This Miss Wang kept her word. Ever since Zhao Hao saved her at midnight, she insisted on repaying him with her body. In the end, she followed Zhao Hao and took the inter-domain teleportation array to the vicinity of Shenzhou.
However, Miss Wang still maintained the reserve expected of a woman. Although she agreed to give herself to him, she remained chaste and only agreed to give Zhao Hao one hour each day.
Fang Xiu surveyed Mount Wanshen and found it to be towering and majestic, stretching endlessly. Looking horizontally, it seemed to have no end in sight. If a mortal were here, he might foolishly believe that this was the end of the world, just like the walls of a house, with the whole world enclosed by four walls.
He sensed a powerful divine restriction fluctuation from Mount Panshen. The space here was almost frozen, making spatial teleportation impossible. There was even a law that prohibited air travel. In other words, anyone who wanted to enter the Divine Continent could only rely on climbing Mount Panshen on foot.
"Brother Hugh, what do you think? Magnificent, isn't it? I was also shocked when I first saw Mount Pantheon. There are as many as 10,000 such sacred mountains, which surround the land of China like stars around the moon."
Fang Xiu only offered a two-word comment on this: "Turtle shell."
Now he finally understood why the inter-domain teleportation array could not directly teleport him into the Divine Continent. It turned out that the gods of the Nine Provinces were too willful, and even in their own territory, they still had to set up defensive measures such as the Myriad Gods Mountain.
The reason for restricting space is to prevent other states from falling, in which case the enemy could directly use the inter-domain teleportation array to invade China.
This is also what he despises most about the gods of the Nine Provinces; they are nothing but withered bones in a tomb, and such behavior is no different from sitting and waiting for death.
Faced with the constant encroachment from the other side, they never thought of making progress and were always on the defensive.
It's just like a turret in a game, always hiding under the turret, not even having the courage to go out and last-hit minions, and in the end, you can only watch helplessly as the turret's health is depleted little by little until it finally dies.
Zhao Hao smiled awkwardly. He understood Fang Xiu's meaning, but he also understood the gods of the Nine Provinces. Not everyone had the courage to fight with their backs against the wall, especially when they were not about to die. Even ants try to survive, let alone gods.
At this moment, he seemed to remember something and quickly whispered a reminder: "By the way, Brother Xiu, there's something I almost forgot. You're now on the blacklist of the gods of the Nine Provinces. It was alright in Yunzhou before, since the gods were busy maintaining the Nine Provinces Grand Array. But once you enter Shenzhou, this is the closest place to the gods, and there are many believers and even divine messengers of the gods."
I suggest you change your identity and hide yourself, otherwise you might be targeted by the gods. No one knows if the gods will have time to target you, Hugh.
"It's alright, I have my own way of dealing with it." Fang Xiu's expression remained calm and composed, as if he already had a way to deal with the gods.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Hao breathed a sigh of relief. He believed Fang Xiu's words completely. If Brother Xiu said he had a way, then he must have a way, without a doubt.
So the group set off for Mount Wanshen. Led by Zhao Hao, they spent several days successfully crossing Mount Wanshen and arriving in the territory of Shenzhou.
Upon entering the land, everyone witnessed a magnificent and prosperous scene.
Beneath the deep blue sky, the mountains and fields rise and fall like a vast, primordial sea. The pine trees rustle like a gust of wind sweeping across the land. The rising purple aura appears even more ethereal in the clear light. Fish and crabs frolic in the deep ravines, while swallows and sparrows dance in the high sky. The peaks are scattered and continuous, like a green dragon stretching across the horizon.
Across the vast and boundless land, faint streaks of celestial light could be seen weaving through the landscape.
This is only a small part of China.
The magnificent scenery of China stands in stark contrast to the desolation of Yunzhou.
It truly deserves the title of the gods' back garden.
"How about it, Brother Xiu? The scenery here is pretty good, isn't it? Any spot here would be worth a hundred yuan for a ticket in the modern world," Zhao Hao said with a smile.
"Hmm, not bad." Fang Xiu nodded: "It's just a pity that such a beautiful scene is about to be destroyed."
Zhao Hao was stunned for a moment, not understanding what was going on. He stared blankly at Fang Xiu and asked, "What do you mean, Brother Xiu? Did you see demons in the future invading China?"
"No...that can't be! This is the core of Kyushu, the dwelling place of the gods. If Shenzhou is invaded, the entire human race will be wiped out."
Fang Xiu's eyes were deep and his tone was calm as he said, "It was not demons that destroyed this place, but gods."
Zhao Hao was even more confused and didn't understand what it meant. Just as he was about to ask further, Fang Xiu's next move almost scared him out of his wits.
Fang Xiu made a hand seal, and the Ba Hui Divine Spark within his body erupted with forbidden light. The light reached straight to the sky, pierced through the clouds, and then spread out like a tsunami, sweeping across the land of China.
boom!
The power of the demon god spreads wildly, engulfing the land!
All the beauty of China seemed to be disrupted at this moment; time seemed to stand still, and everything returned to silence.
At this moment, people all over China looked up in shock, their faces filled with terror.
"This...this is the aura of a demon god!?"
"Could it be that demons have invaded the land of China?!"
"This is impossible. Shenzhou is the core of the Nine Provinces. How could a demon god possibly come knocking on our door?"
Countless old monsters hidden deep in the mountains and forests cried out in horror. As demigods, they were all too aware of the aura of the demon god, and they knew even better what the appearance of the demon god's aura in the Divine Land meant.
A demon god cannot appear in the land of gods unless it launches a full-scale attack.
At that moment, a detached voice rang out across the land: "Gods of the Nine Provinces, come out and see me!"
The sound was like a rolling torrent, spreading throughout the heavens and earth. Leaving aside its power, the content alone was enough to send chills down one's spine.
Who is it? Who dares to speak to the gods like this?
They actually dared to tell the gods to come out?!
Zhao Hao, who was standing next to Fang Xiu, was already deathly pale, his face ashen, because it was Fang Xiu who had just spoken.
"Shuh... Xiu-ge, you... you... this is your way of dealing with this?!" Zhao Hao was so frightened that he couldn't even speak properly.
Although he was doing very well in China and was chatting and laughing with the female demigod every day, when had he ever seen such a scene?
To clamor about gods in front of the whole world!? Or all the gods??
You must know that within the land of Shenzhou, there are gods watching from above. Normally, no one dares to speak ill of the gods behind their backs, for fear of being heard and punished by the gods. But Fang Xiu did something else. First, he spread the aura of the demon god throughout Shenzhou, attracting the attention of the gods. Then, he even dared to provoke the gods in front of everyone.
Zhao Hao had only seen such a bold approach twice in his life.
The first time was when he was in high school. During a school-wide assembly, the principal's speech went on for too long. A troublesome student in the audience told the principal to get off the stage in front of the entire school. He was already amazed at the time, but he never expected to see something a hundred times more incredible now.
