Chapter 137 Blessing of the God of War

A car screeched to a halt amidst the chaotic city streets, its tires leaving skid marks on the pavement.

Long Tian and Ling Han stepped out of the car, only to be immediately greeted by a massive rock engulfed in flames hurtling toward them.

With a swift gesture, Ling Han halted the boulder mid-air. His grip tightened, crushing the fiery rock into molten fragments that scattered like vengeful embers.

"Watch your step, young master," Ling Han cautioned, his eyes sharp as blades.

Long Tian stepped forward, his gaze unyielding as he surveyed the devastation unfolding before him.

The sprawling city lay in ruins, buildings reduced to smoldering debris, fires dancing in the wreckage, and dust and smoke choking the once vibrant streets. Amidst the chaos, terrified people fled in all directions, their desperate cries swallowed by the cacophony of destruction.

"This city is drowning in madness, and I sense a storm of battle looming ahead. Let's go there, Uncle Ling," Long Tian declared, his voice steely, and sprinted towards the heart of the chaos.

Ling Han followed in his wake.

------

Boom!

A deafening explosion engulfed a horde of soul beasts in a cataclysmic blaze.

"Do not underestimate them; these monsters possess a strength far beyond the ordinary!" A man's voice sliced through the chaos, his tone as sharp as a blade, demanding the attention of all who heard.

Gunshots echoed relentlessly as the imperial forces bombarded the soul beasts, their weapons transformed into instruments of unrelenting fury.

Though many were also fighting the soul beasts on the frontline, they continued firing as their weapons had been enhanced by the empire, ensuring they didn't harm their comrades.

Suddenly, a monstrous creature with fangs like daggers leaped towards the valiant shooters.

They recoiled in shock, but before the beast could reach them, a spear flew with blinding speed, impaling the creature and sending it crashing back into the horde.

Every eye turned to behold a woman clad in armor, her presence commanding respect and awe.

"Ohh, that's Gu Yixian!"

"Man... I heard she's incredibly talented and beautiful, but seeing her in person... she exceeds my expectations."

"She's rumored to have reached the pinnacle of Flowing Qi at such a young age."

Whispers of admiration spread like wildfire as people hailed her arrival. She was none other than Gu Yixian, a senior figure of Xuantian Academy.

Gu Yixian leaped into the fray, her spear an extension of her will.

In the blink of an eye, a colossal figure materialized behind her, an imposing bearded man adorned in resplendent armor.

It was her martial spirit, a deity from Chinese mythology, S-Class: Guan Yu, the God of War.

With unyielding determination, she charged into battle, where hundreds of cultivators faced off against thousands of soul beasts.

Bathed in the divine aura of the God of War, Gu Yixian's prowess grew immeasurably. Her spear danced with deadly precision, each strike finding its mark in the heart of the enemy.

While others struggled, she carved through the soul beasts with unparalleled grace.

One of the monsters attempted to strike Gu Yixian from behind, but it was met with a surge of fire conjured by a young man.

"Caution is your best ally," he warned, a smile playing on his lips.

"Thank you," Gu Yixian replied.

The young man smirked before turning back to face the encroaching horde. Gu Yixian did the same, her eyes ablaze with determination.

The sounds of battle reverberated through the city, each clash of steel and bone a testament to the unyielding spirit of humanity.

-----

The battle escalated into a frenzied frenzy. In the midst of the chaos, a colossal gorilla, seven times its usual size, with razor-sharp fangs, leaped and landed with deadly precision on a man, his life extinguished in an instant.

The enraged gorilla rampaged, its sheer strength overwhelming as it swatted away armored soldiers with chilling ease.

"Attack the beast together!" bellowed a soldier, his voice drowned in the cacophony of war.

"Attack!"

Roaring furiously, the gorilla lashed out at the warriors, its blows sending them hurtling through the air like ragdolls.

"Damn it, it's a four-star soul beast!"

"Send word for reinforcements!"

Yet, their cries were drowned by horror when the giant gorilla continued its relentless assault.

"Raargh!" The gorilla roared, leaping and crushing one of them under its weight, blood splattering in all directions.

Many onlookers watched in terror, frozen by the spectacle. The beast's might was unparalleled, a force akin to that of a Nascent Soul and even Golden Core realm cultivator.

Cao Guan, a student of Xuantian Academy, wore a grave expression.

Gu Yixian, arriving on the scene, narrowed her eyes as she observed the three-star gorilla.

"It's a four-star soul beast… We need at least a golden core realm cultivator here. Yixian, don't be reckless, okay?" Cao Guan warned with unwavering seriousness.

"Do we wait for our elder to arrive? I think not. This monster will demolish entire structures if left unattended. I will confront it," Gu Yixian declared, her grip on her spear unyielding as she fixed her gaze upon the raging gorilla.

"What? Yixian, that's a four-star soul beast, you know?" Cao Guan's warning echoed in her ears, but Gu Yixian remained resolute, each step exuding unwavering determination.

"Come here, you brute!" she bellowed at the gorilla, her voice cutting through the chaos like a clarion call.

The gorilla, alerted by her shout, swiftly turned its immense form toward Gu Yixian.

"Raaargh!" With a deafening roar, the gorilla pounded its chest, muscles rippling with raw power, and propelled itself into the air. Its massive fist, like a thunderous cannonball, hurtled toward Gu Yixian, aimed directly at her with lethal intent.

Gu Yixian leaped aside, narrowly avoiding the blow. The ground trembled beneath the force of the gorilla's attack.

She swiftly countered, thrusting her spear toward the gorilla's chest. However, the beast's thick fur protected it, and the spear only left a shallow gash. The gorilla roared in anger and swung its arm, attempting to backhand Gu Yixian.

She managed to evade the attack, but the powerful wind generated by the swing made her stagger backward. Gu Yixian growled, realizing the incredible strength of her opponent.

With a focused expression, she gathered her energy, and the towering figure of Guan Yu appeared behind her, bestowing upon her the blessings of the God of War.

The gorilla lunged again, its eyes filled with rage. Gu Yixian dodged its strikes, aiming for its exposed side. With precise thrusts, her spear pierced the gorilla's skin, causing the beast to howl in pain.

In retaliation, the gorilla slammed its large hand into the ground, creating shockwaves that knocked Gu Yixian down. She rolled to minimize the impact, but still felt the jolt reverberating through her body.

Gasping for breath, Gu Yixian got back on her feet, determination burning in her eyes.

Yet, as she prepared to strike, several soul beasts leaped towards her, only to be met with bursts of flame coming from the side.

Looking to her side, it was Cao Guan. "I'll try to help you as much as I can," he said earnestly.

Gu Yixian nodded, her gaze unwavering as she redirected her attention to the ferocious gorilla. She knew she couldn't defeat the gorilla with brute strength alone. With strategic precision, she analyzed the beast's movements, searching for weaknesses.

When the gorilla launched another attack, Gu Yixian leaped high into the air, narrowly avoiding the creature's grip. In mid-air, she closed her eyes, and the spear in her hand glowed with a brilliant golden hue.

Her black hair billowed in the golden light. She opened her eyes, revealing two beautiful yet deadly blue irises.

Her gaze locked onto the gorilla, assuming a throwing stance with her spear, her focus unwavering.

In the culmination of her attack, she launched her spear at the gorilla.

The sound of the spear slicing through the air was thunderous, a supersonic whistle echoing in the midst of battle.

Boom!

The spear struck the gorilla head-on, unleashing a resounding explosion of energy, akin to a detonating bomb.

The battlefield was shrouded in a dense cloud of dust, obscuring everything from view. Gu Yixian landed gracefully on the ground, her eyes fixed on the thick haze that enveloped the scene.

In the next moment, her eyes widened in horror as she witnessed the gorilla's colossal form hurtling toward her, its enormous hand descending like a hammer from the sky.

She had no time to react.

Bang!

The impact of the gorilla's strike resonated through the battlefield, causing the earth to crack beneath Gu Yixian's body. She lay sprawled on the ground, conscious but broken, several bones in her body shattered by the force of the blow.

The gorilla stood tall, but with only its right arm intact. Its left arm had been severed by Gu Yixian's divine strike.

Behind it, the aftermath of Gu Yixian's attack was still visible—a massive crater akin to the aftermath of a nuclear bomb, surrounded by charred corpses of soul beasts.

Many people were left in awe upon witnessing this.

"Damn, the monster survived after Gu Yixian's devastating attack?!"

"Man, that gorilla is a four-star soul beast, probably equivalent to a Golden Core realm cultivator. It's truly amazing that Gu Yixian managed to make it lose one arm."

"Well, her martial spirit is the God of War; no wonder she's incredibly powerful."

People exchanged astonished remarks.

However, the gorilla raised its remaining arm once more, intending to end it all with a final strike.

Gasps escaped from the onlookers, and no one dared to intervene.

However, a brilliant yellow bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, striking the colossal gorilla with deadly precision, paralyzing it in place.

Every eye turned towards a figure hovering in mid-air, engulfed in the crackling brilliance of lightning.

He descended with unparalleled speed, his claws as sharp as razors, crackling with electric energy.

Slash!

A single swipe of his claw left a deep, bleeding gash on the gorilla's head, penetrating through bone and sinew.

The colossal gorilla collapsed, and in its place stood a young man, his presence as fierce as a tempest.

"I had no idea there was a miniature version of Kong here."
