The collision from the ten demigods and the Crow Godâs projection was like countless of nuclear bombs setting off consecutively above the Tranquil Ocean. It seemed as if massive, bloody suns lit up the entire ocean as if it was daytime.
Countless lives in the Tranquil Ocean were crushed from the impact, dying the entire ocean red.
The sea seemed to be like a washing machine that was set on turbo mode, only a hundred times faster. Endless giant waves rumbled and poured down like a waterfall.
Water vapor evaporated in the high temperature, causing the sea level of the Tranquil Ocean to drop at a worrying rate.
The fight between the Purple Crow and God Bless had since moved away from the area to tens of kilometers away.
Apart from Yang Ling and his team as well as the Crow Godâs projection, Lin Huang, Bloody, and the Ninetails Lynx in the alternate dimension and Xiao Mo whose combat strength remained elevating were the only ones left.
Although they were in the middle of the battle, the Crow Godâs projection did not stop the transformation process on Xiao Mo.
The black fog continued to penetrate Xiao Moâs mouth and nose. His combat strength aura had elevated all the way from white flame-level to imperial-level. However, the speed of his elevation had clearly slowed down. Nobody knew if it was caused by the Crow Godâs projection being distracted in the fight or Xiao Moâs elevation on imperial-level.
Within a mere few seconds, the Crow Godâs projection collided with the ten demigods more than a hundred times.
However, the Divine Power in the ten demigodsâ bodies was yet to be drained. Even Lin Huang thought it was rather odd. Theoretically, demigods could not generate Divine Power in their bodies. The Divine Power in their bodies would dwindle whenever they used it.
Naturally, the Crow God noticed that too, but he did not plan to stop attacking just yet.
âI didnât tell you earlier, but the Divine Power in these demigod puppetsâ bodies canât be drained. I want you to experience it yourself.â Yang Lingâs voice came behind the demigod puppets, âAfter all, youâll only believe it after experiencing it.â
The Crow Godâs projection scoffed and he did not slow down on his attack at all.
âDo you know why the Divine Power in these puppetsâ bodies canât be drained?â Yang Lingâs voice soon came again. âBecause I installed the True Godâs Divine Fire in their bodies. The Divine Power in their bodies are bottomless, they can never finish it.â
âYouâre lying. A demigodâs body canât handle the True Godâs Divine Fire at all unless the True God gave it up willingly,â the Crow God finally responded.
âWhat if I made the Divine Fire myself?â Yang Ling asked.
The Crow God fell into silence at that moment.
âI spent hundreds of years studying the Godhead and Divine Fire, so Iâve finally managed to come up with the Divine Tinder more than a hundred years later. After that, I spent decades figuring out a way to integrate the Divine Tinder. Unfortunately, Iâve not experienced a breakthrough in studying the Godhead. Otherwise, you would see more than just demigods today,â Yang Ling explained while smiling.
âGive it up. The speed of the Divine Power supply in these puppetsâ bodies is comparable with a True Godâs. Itâs impossible for you to defeat them by draining the Divine Power in their bodies,â Yang Ling proceeded to advise the Crow God, âThe suggestion I gave still stands. As soon as you give us the eye, weâll remove the contamination immediately so that you can complete the Crow God Ceremony.â
The Crow God turned his head to look at the Detective Eye, 80% of which had black goo dripping all over it. Only a small portion was untouched.
âYouâre running out of time.â Yang Ling peeped at the direction of the Detective Eye and bent his head down to look at the time on his Emperorâs Heart Ring. âLooking at the current progress, the eye will be completely contaminated within 30 seconds at the most. You wonât be able to complete the transformation of your Crow Spirit. As soon as the eye is completely contaminated, you will lose contact with this world entirely and youâll disappear right away.â
âReally?â The Crow Godâs projection laughed all of a sudden. His crimson eyes shifted away from Yang Ling and subsequently stared at Hong Zhuang. âI suppose this lady is very important to you, isnât she?â
âWhat are you trying to do?â Yang Ling frowned slightly.
âYouâre too amateur to be playing tricks with me.â As soon as the Crow Godâs projection spoke, a black thread that was the width of a hair revealed itself on Hong Zhuangâs neck. The black thread wound around her neck, sinking into her skin a little.
The Crow God had placed the black thread there secretly during the fight earlier. He hid its aura intentionally as well as its trace.
âRemove the contamination on the eye if you want this lady to live.â The Crow Godâs projection chuckled cunningly.
âYouâre a True God and youâre threatening me, an ordinary human with a lady. Do you think this is right?â Yang Ling taunted.
âQuit your nonsense. Do you want her to live or do you want her to die?â The black thread that was the width of a hair on Hong Zhuangâs neck tightened slightly now.
âRelease her. You have my word!â Yang Ling scowled and fell into silence for a moment. Eventually, he made up his mind.
âDonât give him what he wants!â Hong Zhuang shook her head at Yang Ling.
âYou better be quiet, lady.â The thread the Crow God had tied on Hong Zhuangâs neck tightened even more now. Blood was flowing from the cut on Hong Zhuangâs neck. The Crow God then looked at Yang Ling. âRemove the contamination! Iâll release her as soon as you do that.â
âI donât trust you. Release her first!â
âItâs not your choice whether to trust me now.â The Crow Godâs projection smiled. âThis is the only option you have. I donât plan to give you another option.â
âAlright then. I hope that youâll do as you promised.â Yang Ling decided to compromise in the end.
A demigod puppet with a battle bow in his hand soon walked out among the ten puppets. Clearly, he was the one who had shot the arrow at the eye to contaminate it earlier.
He moved and appeared next to the eye above the airship in the next second. He touched the battle bow in his hand to the eye.
The black goo that occupied close to 80% of the eye began fading away and flowed towards the battle bow in the demigodâs hand.
Lin Huang, who was in the alternate dimension, raised his brow as he watched that. He asked the Ninetails Lynx, âCan you cut his thread?â
âItâll take some effort but itâs doable,â the Ninetails Lynx confirmed.
âThen, cut the thread on Hong Zhuangâs neck,â Lin Huang ordered.
âAre you sure you want to do that?â This would mean weâre involved in this fight.â Bloodyâs voice came out of his sleeve.
âDonât worry. The Crow God has no time for us. Yang Ling wonât give him the opportunity to do anything to us,â Lin Huang assured with a smile.
In the next second, the little white cat disappeared from Lin Huangâs shoulder.
Lin Huang saw the black thread on Hong Zhuangâs neck being snipped off, then the little white cat returned to his shoulder.
Yang Ling was stunned for a second and reacted immediately. He controlled the demigod puppet to recall the absorption of the Demon Curse on the battle bow. As a result, the Demon Curse began to contaminate the eye again.
The Crow Godâs projection noticed something off right away. The 108 pupils stared at where Lin Huang and the Ninetails Lynx were hiding. Without a doubt, the Crow God was enraged.
