"Insolent!"
The Blood River True God appeared.
His entire being seemed entwined with a vast river of blood.
Mighty and unending, it surged relentlessly through the void.
This was the Blood River True God, a peak existence among the True Gods.
"Who dares disturb this god?"
The Blood River True Godās expression was one of feral malice, as if he was ready to devour someone.
He seemed unaware of the current situation.
But Lu Changsheng had no patience for needless talk.
He threw a punch.
"Boom."
The heavens themselves seemed to collapse.
The Blood River True God raised his head, and it seemed as though within the void, in all directions, there existed only that single fist.
Even separated by a distance, the Blood River True God felt as though needles were piercing every inch of his body, and in the depths of his heart, an endless sense of foreboding arose.
It was as if... he would die!
Yet, before him was merely a Martial Saint.
How could he possibly die?
"Blood River..."
The Blood River True God roared.
It was as if a torrential river of blood had truly erupted, surging toward Lu Changsheng.
"Bang."
A muffled explosion rang out.
The torrential blood river in the void seemed as though it had been obliterated in an instant.
The Blood River True Godās divine body didnāt even have the power to resistāit was directly blasted apart into countless fragments.
With one punch, the Blood River True God exploded!
Lu Changsheng stretched out his massive hand and grasped.
No less than four or five large Divine Fragments, along with over a dozen smaller ones, fell into Lu Changshengās palm.
"What a haul!"
Lu Changshengās eyes lit up as he noticed the four large Divine Fragments in his hand.
Even if he had to share one fragment with Luo Martial Saint, that still left him with three.
Now, his total count of Divine Fragments had reached seven.
With just three more fragments, he would be able to complete the mission of the ten Holy Lands.
However, Luo Martial Saint stood in a daze, utterly stunned.
What was this?
That was the Blood River True God!
He had prepared meticulously, planning to strike unexpectedly at the critical moment and take down the Blood River True God in one fell swoop.
And what was the result?
One punch!
Just one punch, and the Blood River True God exploded.
Only a few shattered fragments were left.
Was this still a top-tier True God?
Or was it that Lu Changsheng was simply too overwhelmingly powerful?
So powerful that it was beyond Luo Martial Saintās imagination!
"Swoosh."
Luo Martial Saint rushed to Lu Changshengās side, his face brimming with excitement. "Daoist Lu, you are truly... unbelievable. With the Divine Fragments secured, weāve completed a great merit!"
As he looked at Luo Martial Saintās excited demeanor, Lu Changsheng remained calm.
In fact, his gaze held a trace of peculiarity. "Luo Martial Saint, where exactly did you get the information about the Blood River True Godās hideout?"
Luo Martial Saint slightly paused and replied, "I infiltrated the Blood River Divine Dynasty for many years and stumbled upon this information by chance..."
"By chance?"
Lu Changsheng chuckled.
Standing with his hands clasped behind his back, he spoke with a faint smile. "Iām afraid this āchanceā discovery of yours was deliberately leaked by the Divine Ones."
"Take a closer lookāwho is the Divine One beneath us?"
"Thereās another True God?"
Luo Martial Saint froze slightly.
As the words fell, an overwhelming aura erupted in an instant.
Following that, a Divine Being exuding blood-colored radiance appeared in the void.
The entire sky seemed to be dyed in blood.
The scent of thick, cloying blood seemed to fill the air.
Blood!
This was the stench of blood!
"No... This is not a True God; this is... the Blood God King!"
Luo Martial Saintās heart trembled.
The Blood God King!
A Divine Kingās might, why was he here?
And moreover, hiding in the same place as the Blood River True God, beneath the Divine Hall?
This didnāt make sense!
In an instant, Luo Martial Saint faintly guessed the truth.
A trap!
The location of the Blood River True Godās hideoutāthis information itself was a trap.
How many Martial Saints had this bait lured?
And each one of them... perished!
"A trap... This was a trap orchestrated by the Blood God King and the Blood River True God."
"Weāve fallen into their trap!"
"Itās all over..."
Luo Martial Saintās eyes dimmed, and his entire aura deflated.
A Divine King!
It was an ambush laid by a Divine King.
A Divine King alone could seal off the space completely.
Right now, the space around them had indeed been locked by the Blood God Kingāa Big Teleportation Talisman, a Small Teleportation Talismanānone of them worked anymore.
In other words, they had become fish in the Blood God Kingās barrel. There was no escapeāthey were surely doomed!
Yet, Luo Martial Saint could never have imagined that a Divine King and a True God would stoop so low, setting traps to ensnare unsuspecting prey like them.
However, the Blood God King himself seemed equally livid.
"Who killed the Blood River True God?"
The Blood God Kingās voice, like rolling thunder, reverberated across the void.
Typically, Divine Beings were emotionless.
But this didnāt mean they couldnāt feel anger.
However, their anger rarely surfaced.
Yet now, anyone could seeāthe Blood God King was enraged.
After all, both he and the Blood River True God had worked together to craft this elaborate trap, expecting to wipe out wave after wave of Martial Saints and Nascent Soul True Monarchs.
And the result?
The Blood God King didnāt even have the chance to act before the Blood River True God was dead.
This was akin to a slap on the Blood God Kingās face!
Right under his nose, the Blood River True God had died.
How could the Blood God King not be furious?
And yet, in the face of the enraged Blood God King, Lu Changsheng remained as composed as ever.
He glanced at Luo Martial Saint and said lightly, "Luo Martial Saint, donāt forget to activate the Imprint Stone. Watch carefully what happens next!"
With that said, the thousand-zhang-tall Chaos Sacred Body in the void began to move.
"Boom."
A fist thundered forward.
In the void, it seemed as though the heavens were filled with countless shadows of Lu Changshengās fist.
