Chapter 271 Too Exciting_1
"Trying to leave now, isn't it a bit too late?"
The God of Sloth noticed Qiandaoliu and Bi Bidong retreating as they fought and thought they were considering the option of withdrawal.
After all, given the current situation, he had gradually gained the upper hand.
With just one opportunity, he could directly suppress the two of them, so it was normal for a wise person to consider retreating.
However, he also understood the principle of not pursuing defeated enemies too closely, so he did not chase them too fiercely and feared that if he cornered them, they would fight him desperately.
If that happened, it would ruin their grand plans.
Therefore, the God of Sloth allowed Qiandaoliu and Bi Bidong to retreat while fighting, yet they were still unable to shake him off.
No one knows how much time had passed.
The battlefield of the three shifted from land to the sea.
Their powerful forces poured into the sea, casually raising waves hundreds of meters high.
Originally.
This was nothing special.
But the God of Sloth discovered that after the massive waves fell, there was a figure in purple battle armor who had crossed through the waves and arrived in front of him, less than a hundred meters away.
He was instantly alarmed—had he fallen into an ambush?
However.
After determining the strength of the newcomer, his heart settled back into place.
There was nothing to worry about.
The newcomer's cultivation level was merely that of a small divine officer, far inferior to the inheritors of the God of Angels and the Rakshasa God.
He immediately sent out a wave of divine thoughts, mocking everyone.
"Ha ha, I honestly don't know—are you ignorant or fearless?"
"This guy, reeking of fish, thinks he can battle me?
Just a small divine officer, even in the Divine Realm he's cannon fodder at best, not worth mentioning at all. Watch as I extinguish him with a wave of my hand..."
As the God of Sloth spoke, he suddenly waved his hand, and a lance of dark green light burst forth, aiming to pierce the Deepsea Devil Whale King, now only thirty to fifty meters away.
One could see, the lance seemed to traverse the void and instantly landed on the Deepsea Devil Whale King.
However.
Layers of ripples appeared on the Deepsea Devil Whale King, directly dissipating that terrifying dark green divine power...
"What is this...situation?"
The God of Sloth's lips trembled slightly.
Not from fright, but from shock.
You see, if such a strike were delivered against a divine officer in the Divine Realm, that officer would be obliterated instantly, yet this fellow, not much stronger than a divine officer, remained unharmed?
How could he not be astonished?
"There must be some treasure on this guy..."
"Right, that powerful Qin Xiao left so assuredly; how could he not have left some contingencies on Soul Land?"
The God of Sloth quickly figured out the issue at hand.
He was one hundred percent certain that this had something to do with Qin Xiao.
"But I refuse to believe in this curse, can this guy really stop me?"
The God of Sloth temporarily gave up on attacking Qiandaoliu and Bi Bidong and shifted his focus to the Deepsea Devil Whale King.
He faintly felt that this individual was the last hope of Soul Land and that if he eliminated him, there would be no one on Soul Land that could threaten him.
Thinking thus, he thrust out with the two long spears in his hands.
It's worth mentioning that with one gun aimed up and the other down, there were two targets: one was the Deepsea Devil Whale King's glabella, intended to destroy its Divine Soul.
The other target was the Deepsea Devil Whale King's chest, seeking to destroy its heart once his divine body was shattered.
However, although his calculations were indeed clicking into place, did he truly believe the Deepsea Devil Whale King was here to court death?
As slow as speech but as swift as thought, just as the God of Sloth and the Deepsea Devil Whale King were about to clash at close quarters, the Deepsea Devil Whale King took out an item from his bosom.
It was a pitch-black scepter.
The protective ripples on the body of the Deepsea Devil Whale King were released from the scepter.
Upon seeing the scepter clearly, the God of Sloth couldn't help but exclaim, "The Scepter of Destruction! That is the Super Divine Instrument Destruction Scepter!"
He was stunned.
He had never imagined that his lord's Scepter of Destruction would appear in the hands of a mere divine officer.
"Haha, you guessed correctly, so I shall reward you with death!"
The Deepsea Devil Whale King revealed a hideous smile and raised the Scepter of Destruction in his hand.
Boom crack!
The gem at the top of the scepter flashed, and a purplish-black Destruction God Thunder erupted like a ferocious dragon, blasting out from the gem and instantly crushing the God of Sloth's attack, hitting him squarely.
"Argh..."
The God of Sloth let out a series of piercing screams, echoing throughout the arena.
Qiandaoliu, Bi Bidong, and the Deepsea Devil Whale King were also aware of the terror of the Destruction God Thunder and observed from a distance, daring not to come close.
But it was not hard to see from the hideous face of the God of Sloth that being hit by the Destruction God Thunder was an incredibly painful ordeal.
As time slowly passed, what was only a few breaths felt like an eternity to Bi Bidong, Qiandaoliu, and the Deepsea Devil Whale King.
It was only a few breaths later that the God of Sloth finally turned to ash under the horrific thunder of destruction.
"Phew..."
Bi Bidong took a long breath, feeling a great relief.
The heavy stone in her heart could finally settle down again.
"Huff, huff..."
After confirming there was no trace of the God of Sloth left in the void, the Deepsea Devil Whale King's tense nerves relaxed.
He regulated his surging emotions with deep breaths.
Even so, the Deepsea Devil Whale King was still extremely excited, and could not help but exclaim, "So thrilling! I actually killed a god today."
Keep in mind, this was a true god.
Far from the pseudo-gods of the abyssal plane, he was a true powerhouse.
Cough cough cough... Qiandaoliu couldn't help but cough, "Although it is impolite to interrupt you, I still want to ask clearly, how did you do it?"
He seemed to be asking the Deepsea Devil Whale King, but in reality, his eyes never left the scepter in the Devil Whale King's hand.
Without a doubt, he knew that the Deepsea Devil Whale King's slaying of a Second-level God had a great deal to do with the scepter.
The Deepsea Devil Whale King hesitated for a moment before saying, "Well, there's nothing I can't talk about..."
"As you all can see, I was able to kill that arrogant fellow entirely because of the scepter in my hand.
This object is out of the ordinary, it's a super divine weapon, taken by Qin Xiao from someone called the Destruction God. It's known as the Scepter of Destruction."
"This is a super divine weapon? No wonder it has such tremendous power!" Both Qiandaoliu and Bi Bidong were quite shocked.
According to the legacy memories they had, there were not many super divine weapons in the Divine Realm, almost all of which were in the hands of the Divine Kings, the most powerful treasures of the Divine Realm.
Seeing the reactions, the Deepsea Devil Whale King knew they were thinking too much and explained helplessly, "Don't overthink it, with my cultivation level I'm absolutely unable to wield such a powerful super divine weapon.
The only reason I could slay this Second-level God is because Qin Xiao preserved the power within the scepter. Even if I exerted all my strength, I could only trigger it once..."
