I'll Quit Being a God

Chapter 540: Decimating the Yama With a Hundred Thousand Banners

Up ahead, the nefarious aura of the nine Corpse Fiends grew wild and ominous, leaving Lu Heng completely immobilized and unable to move an inch.

Nüwa, who had unleashed all her deadly techniques, attempted to rush over to assist, but the mere presence of one ancestor blocking her path had already left her in a sorry state. The pressure exerted by this Corpse Fiend was even greater than when she was surrounded and attacked by the thirteen ancestors.

The thirteen ancestors, revealing their true forms, presented a striking contrast compared to their previous states!

Furthermore, in the distant horizon, three incarnations of malevolent ancestors protected the fissured Celestial Emperor's Bell as they surged towards the distance, aiming to escape from this battlefield.

Lu Heng knew where they were headed.

That is the periphery of the Celestial Desolation Realm, where the Earthly Behemoth has been feasting on the vital essence of the living beings and abundant souls of the Celestial Desolation Realm for many years!

That fearsome beast, left in the mortal realms by the supreme being of Heaven beyond Heaven, is an entity that approaches immortality. Even someone like Lu Heng at this moment, in a true life-and-death struggle, dare not claim to have a guaranteed victory against that behemoth.

In the past, even the thirteen ancestors didn't dare to provoke it easily.

However, in the long passage of time, the thirteen ancestors had long discovered a method to counteract this Earthly Behemoth.

That immortal corpse, hidden by the thirteen ancestors inside the Celestial Emperor's Bell, was once the master of the Earthly Behemoth while alive!

The thirteen ancestors used forbidden techniques to refine this supreme being from Heaven beyond Heaven into a malevolent entity, and by devouring its decaying flesh, continuously seized its essence and refined the corpse's aura. Only by assuming the incarnation of this Corpse Fiend could they retain their consciousness.

Because their means of acquiring forbidden power differ from that of ordinary individuals!

And those repeated acts of world destruction, harvesting a vast amount of life essence, ostensibly for refining the Celestial Emperor's Bell, in reality, serve to nourish the Corpse Fiend controlled by them within the Celestial Emperor's Bell!

By continuously nurturing this Corpse Fiend and devouring its flesh and blood, they have strayed further and further on the path of wickedness. Their current state far surpasses the constraints imposed upon them by Heaven beyond Heaven in their cultivation.

Even the Lu Heng engaging in battle with them at present is merely a projection of an immortal being traversing the river of time and space, a mere projection of power before his imminent demise and ascension, far from reaching the pinnacle.

However, being able to engage in combat with it and even force Lu Heng into a corner, this alone is already terrifying enough.

If it weren't for Lu Heng's interference, the Celestial Emperor's Bell that the Thirteen Ancestors had been refining for years would have reached its pinnacle of sublimation, with the terrifying power of the Corpse Fiend held within the bell reaching its peak. The Thirteen Ancestors could then take the Celestial Emperor's Bell, along with the Corpse Fiend inside, to the Celestial Desolation Realm and easily slay the Earthly Behemoth, using the creature's flesh and essence to further advance on the path of wicked evolution.

Possibly even reaching a level where they can contend against immortals, surpassing any one of the ancestors!

However, the appearance of Lu Heng disrupted their flawless plan.

The Celestial Emperor's Bell is damaged, and clearly, there is no opportunity for it to be repaired and refined again. The Thirteen Ancestors can only bring the Celestial Emperor's Bell, along with the Corpse Fiend within, to the Celestial Desolation Realm in search of the Earthly Behemoth, relying on brute force to slay this creature.

However, the Earthly Behemoth is too strong. The Thirteen Ancestors would undoubtedly have to pay a gruesome price to slay this creature without the fully refined Celestial Emperor's Bell.

Even if their plan succeeds now, it will undoubtedly fail to reach the desired state of perfection as initially envisioned.

In such circumstances, how could the Thirteen Ancestors, who have plotted for years and are now in this Corpse Fiend state, not harbor resentment?

The nine Corpse Fiends that remained behind to obstruct Lu Heng were nearly driven to madness by hatred, yearning to devour Lu Heng alive!

Meanwhile, in the distant emptiness, the three formidable Corpse Fiends who guarded the departure of the Celestial Emperor's Bell have already left the outskirts of the Eternal Pure Land.

Along the way, several Heavenly Court Divine Lords attempted to intervene and buy time for Lu Heng, but how could the already disadvantaged Divine Lords have their wishes fulfilled? Countless cultivators of the seven realms, far outnumbering them, descended upon them, engulfing the Heavenly Court Divine Lords who were still fiercely fighting on the battlefield. The Divine Lords desperately tried to break free, but they couldn't even come close to the ominous aura emanating from the three ancestors!

In the dire situation, the Thirteen Ancestors laughed ferociously with anger, mocking Lu Heng's futile efforts.

However, trapped in the midst of the slaughter, unable to move, Lu Heng remained unfazed. In the instant when the three Corpse Fiends guarded the flight of the Celestial Emperor's Bell out of the Eternal Pure Land, Lu Heng, hidden deep within the Pure Land, let out a soft sigh.

In the next moment, a radiant divine light manifested from the chaotic void beyond the Eternal Pure Land.

A celestial palace!

A grand and awe-inspiring Cloud Sea Sky Palace, directly descended upon the chaotic void beyond the Eternal Pure Land!

The three Corpse Fiends guarding the Celestial Emperor's Bell were slightly astonished as it flew out of the Pure Land. Following that, the enormous heaven door of the Cloud Sea Sky Palace thunderously opened, and from within emerged countless radiant golden deities!

Candle Dragon, Jiu Mie, Lian Cangqing, Ao Tianxing, Nine Phoenix, the Fire God, Gu Yan, Fei Yi… These familiar figures to Lu Heng, after disappearing for thousands of years, reappeared once again.

Moreover, everyone's cultivation has experienced tremendous advancement compared to ten thousand years ago!

Their terrifying momentum even slightly unnerved the three Corpse Fiends guarding the Celestial Emperor's Bell.

"This is impossible!"

A Corpse Fiend let out a furious roar.

They are aware of Lu Heng's newly established Heavenly Court, but even more aware that the power of the Heavenly Court is not formidable.

However, what is now unfolding before their eyes completely surpasses the expectations of everyone!

The multitude of divine figures appearing within the Heavenly Court rivals dozens of individuals who can match the Divine Lords of the ancient Heavenly Court.

How is it possible to achieve such a realm of cultivation and advance so much in just a mere span of twenty thousand years?

Even Nuwa, the supreme god deep within the shattered Pure Land, couldn't help but be astonished upon witnessing such a scene.

In the midst of the encirclement and attacks from the nine ancestors, Lu Heng, with a slight smile, said, "My trump card extends beyond merely projecting my past power into the present day!"

The disappearance of the gods of the Heavenly Court ten thousand years ago was the handiwork of Lu Heng.

Or perhaps, it was the doing of Lu Heng, who proved immortality countless millions of years ago, before his death.

In that moment, Lu Heng, besides surpassing the boundaries of time and projecting his power into the future, single-handedly interfered with the flow of the river of time, bringing all the gods of the Heavenly Court to the transcendent state that Lu Heng once entered by chance when he obtained Fu Xi's Eight Trigrams.

To gain enlightenment for ten thousand years in such a profound realm, even a dog could make remarkable progress on the path of cultivation, let alone the gods of the Heavenly Court, whose innate abilities and cultivation are extraordinary.

The gods of the new Heavenly Court who have emerged from the void chaos now possess a formidable might that is nearly equal to the previous Divine Lords of the ancient Heavenly Court, accompanied by tens of thousands of War Generals.

The three Corpse Fiends were instantly besieged and hindered by the gods. Despite their formidable and terrifying strength, as well as possessing the unparalleled Celestial Emperor's Bell, they couldn't withstand the strong power of the cloud Sea Sky Palace, attacks from Jiu Mie, Candle Dragon, and other powerful cultivators, and countless gods of the Heavenly Court.

At that moment, the three Corpse Fiend Ancestors found themselves trapped in the same predicament as Lu Heng.

Unable to move! Unable to make any progress!
