There was absolutely no way Ji Xiaoxiao could conquer the God of Light's Divine Mountain alone. Only by overwhelming the enemy with sheer numbers could she greatly increase her chances of defeating the God of Light. Ji Xiaoxiao used the remaining Fountain of Life as a reward to hire a large number of powerful mercenaries.
Ji Xiaoxiao did not rush to attack. After making proper preparations, she discussed with the mercenary leader for a long time and finally determined a safe strategy to attack Shenming Mountain in an orderly manner.
The mercenaries surged eastward with overwhelming force. Sensing this, the pure white angels rallied their friends, forming an army. Hovering in the air, their compassionate expressions masked a profound indifference towards all living beings. Even gods who love humanity are often oblivious to its suffering.
Half an hour later, the mercenaries arrived at the foot of Mount Shenming.
The two sides were on the verge of a fight to the death.
After a while, the mercenaries launched the first attack. Fireballs, lightning, earthquakes—a dazzling array of attacks swarmed forth, and the mercenaries annihilated dozens of Pure White Angels in their first strike. The Pure White Angels were enraged and became completely absorbed in the battle.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield.
Ji Xiaoxiao took the invisibility potion and used the Netherworld Cold Fire bestowed by the Demon God to break through the barrier of Mount Shenming. Her body transformed into a stream of light and quickly entered the interior of Mount Shenming. Inside Mount Shenming, there were no flowers, no trees, only emptiness and whiteness, with only endless light elements.
"So ugly." Ji Xiaoxiao sincerely commented on the God of Light's taste.
Ji Xiaoxiao dared not linger. She broke through the barrier of Shenming Mountain, making a great commotion. The pure white angels outside had keen senses and could not possibly have failed to detect her as an intruder.
She sprinted quickly towards the mountaintop, replenishing her mana as her mana bar decreased.
Unaware of how high Mount Shenming was, Ji Xiaoxiao ran at full speed for nearly an hour, but still couldn't see the Temple of the God of Light. The world was a vast expanse of white, eerily quiet.
Ji Xiaoxiao stopped and looked around.
"There's nothing there," Ji Xiaoxin thought to herself.
Apart from an upward slope, it was difficult to discern directions in Shenming Mountain. Ji Xiaoxiao wasn't sure if she was lost, so she could only keep going.
"Huff, huff, huff..." Ji Xiaoxiao panted, sweat beading on her forehead.
Thirty minutes later, Ji Xiaoxiao's clothes were soaked with sweat. With each step she took, a wet shoe print was left on the white pavement.
"Aren't we there yet?"
Ji Xiaoxiao looked up and saw a temple gleaming with white light.
"Phew, we've finally arrived."
If she keeps running, Ji Xiaoxiao will definitely die of dehydration and exhaustion.
Ji Xiaoxiao didn't run; instead, she slowly walked up step by step. Although the speed was slower, it relieved her physical fatigue and replenished her health and mana, making the benefits far outweigh the drawbacks.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew towards Ji Xiaoxiao.
Ji Xiaoxiao summoned a barrier, which barely blocked the strong wind that was as sharp as a knife.
"who?"
Ji Xiaoxiao looked up, and a holy and unassailable angel rested above her.
"Archangel Lucifer." The only angel capable of guarding the Temple of the God of Light is Archangel Lucifer, the most powerful angel among all angels.
Archangel Lucifer's strength is difficult to estimate. Even the most well-informed intelligence agency in "Half-Blood Overlord" only gave a brief assessment of Archangel Lucifer's strength in one sentence: "Archangel Lucifer's strength is slightly higher than that of the undead king of the forbidden zone of life."
A vague evaluation misses the point.
The only thing Ji Xiaoxiao knew was that the effort and energy she put into dealing with Archangel Lucifer was a hundred or a thousand times greater than when she fought the King of the Undead.
“Anyone who trespasses on Shenming Mountain shall be killed without mercy.”
As soon as Lucifer finished speaking, bullets and white feathers shot out from the six pairs of twelve wings behind him.
Ji Xiaoxiao kept turning over, and bullets and white feathers grazed past her.
Seeing that Bai Yu could not defeat Ji Xiaoxiao, Lucifer changed his attack method, and a large-scale light magic circle was formed with his will.
"Divine light".
A beam of light, a kilometer in diameter, descended from the sky, its immense speed nearly tearing space apart. Knowing she couldn't avoid Lucifer's attack, Ji Xiaoxiao held her breath and focused intently on controlling the restored defensive artifact—the God's Wedding Gown.
A flash of white light passed by, and Ji Xiaoxiao was unharmed.
"The wedding gown of the gods, the most precious treasure of my divine race." Lucifer flapped his wings and landed on the ground. "Human woman, return the wedding gown of the gods to me, and I may spare your life."
Ji Xiaoxiao ignored him and attacked Lucifer with lightning and thunder.
Lucifer waved his hand, and all of Ji Xiaoxiao's attacks turned to dust.
"So strong." Ji Xiaoxiao continued her relentless attack.
Lucifer frowned slightly, clearly annoyed by Ji Xiaoxiao's petty antics.
"Your attack can't hurt me."
Ji Xiaoxiao slowly approached Lucifer, and when she saw that the distance was about right, she felt happy.
"What are you going to do?" Lucifer asked, somewhat flustered, flapping his wings in preparation for ascension.
Ji Xiaoxiao wouldn't give Lucifer a chance to turn the tide, and directly reached out and grabbed Lucifer's wings. Wings are as important as life itself to an angel. Ji Xiaoxiao had grabbed his wings with her filthy hands—a humiliation, a complete disgrace! Lucifer was enraged and, disregarding his own safety, used divine-level magic arrays and spells at close range.
"Divine light. Demons vanquished in all directions."
At the same time, Ji Xiaoxiao also unleashed her ultimate move.
"May divine light shine upon us, and may heavenly punishment drive away the filth."
In comparison, Lucifer uses divine-level magic arrays and spells, possessing immense power, while Ji Xiaoxiao uses forbidden light magic. Forbidden light magic is so named because its destructive power is terrifying, violating the laws of nature, and strictly forbidden by the gods. Therefore, Lucifer's divine-level magic arrays and spells pale in comparison, and Ji Xiaoxiao's attack is superior.
