Otherwise, Meng Lei must be a Pseudo-Chief God, who had refined the Boundless Plane’s Heart of The Existential Plane.
No matter how they cracked their brains, they never thought that the million experts’ murderer was a human who was under 45 years old!
Not yet 45... Was he really human?
Gaianos said gravely, “Fairy Goddess, I want to know everything about him!”
“Yes, Lord Gaianos!”
The Fairy Goddess did not hide anything as she explained Meng Lei’s past thoroughly. “45 years ago, Meng Lei was only an ordinary villager from the Magical Beast Village of the Heaven’s Vault Continent’s Fire Dragon Kingdom...”
After the Fairy Goddess finished speaking, the seven Great Perfection deities went silent yet again. The Moon Goddess mumbled, “In less than ten years, how could a human become a super expert!? It’s just fantasy!”
“It’s not just a fantasy. Even a Juggernaut’s reincarnation could not do it!”
The Great Perfection deity Ebenezer’s eyes lit up. “There must be some huge secret behind this fellow. Otherwise, he would never have improved so quickly!”
Huge secret?
A jolt went through everyone. Their eyes lit up as they became hugely interested in Meng Lei’s secret.
After cultivating to their level, unless they encountered some incredible opportunity, cultivating further was almost impossible.
If they got their hands on that secret, they might have a chance to cultivate further!
“Where is that knave!”
Adolphus, the Great Perfection deity of the Colossal Dragon Gods, bellowed as it could not wait any longer.
The Fairy Goddess was conflicted. Even though it wouldn’t affect Meng Lei if she talked about his life, telling where Meng Lei was would put him in danger!
She simply couldn’t do it.
“Mm?”
Adolphus’ expression turned grim as he seemed displeased. The Lava Goddess noticed that and answered quickly, “That fellow is currently in the Monarch Mountain, and he seemed to be refining the Boundless Plane’s Heart of The Existential Plane!”
“Damn!”
“We can’t let him get his way!”
“Damn it! We must stop him!”
The six Great Perfection deities’ expressions changed dramatically.
Meng Lei was a powerful presence who broke through to high-level higher deity with ease. If he was allowed to refine the Boundless Plane’s Heart of The Existential Plane, he would become a Pseudo-Chief God.
Not just them, even if Chief Gods descended upon the plane, they could not do anything to Meng Lei. By then, let alone digging up Meng Lei’s secret, revenge would be impossible.
“Stop him!”
“We must stop him immediately!”
“Where’s the Monarch Mountain?” barked Gaianos.
“That direction!” The Lava Goddess pointed away.
“Here we go!”
Gaianos went along with the other five Great Perfection deities to speed to the Monarch Mountain immediately.
“You may return to the Divine Realm now,” the Moonlight Goddess said to the goddesses.
The Lava Goddess answered respectfully, “Yes, Lady Elune!”
The Fairy Goddess then asked, “Lady Elune, what will happen to Meng Lei?”
“Since you knew the outcome, why should you even ask further?”
The Moonlight Goddess left these words before she left without looking back.
“Diana, let’s go. He’ll die surely!” The Lava Goddess shook her head. “Killing a million deities and demons, offending almost every possible faction? He won’t have a good ending at all!”
“Sigh...”
The Fairy Goddess sighed quietly.
At the Monarch Mountain...
The Great Prophet, Olio, and the rest continued to guard the Monarch Shrine as they talked among themselves, leaving the Monarch Mountain rather peaceful.
“Great Prophet, is our Juggernaut still alive?”
“Lord Juggernaut died long ago. What’s left are his divine spirit fragments!”
“Great Prophet, do you know what kind of person our new master is? How did he inherit everything from the Juggernaut and become our master?”
“It was all the will of the Great Juggernaut. All we have to do is follow any of their orders!”
“Since we are talking about that, our new master is really powerful! He can slaughter a million extraterrestrial demons single-handedly, similar to the Boundless King’s style!”
“Ah yes! Our new master is too powerful—”
Just as the Boundless Giants were talking casually, a terrifying divine power came from across the horizon. Although the divine might was not as powerful due to the distance, the pressure it contained made everyone’s heart pound in trepidation.
The Boundless Giants raised their heads and saw a few figures shooting in their direction at unbelievable speed. In a blink of an eye, those figures skit passed a great distance as they appeared in the skies not far away.
“That’s...”
“Extraterrestrial demons!”
“Damn it! Those extraterrestrial demons are back!”
The Great Prophet’s countenance changed greatly.
Damn it! Why were they here again? These extraterrestrial demons linger around too much!
Olio cursed inwardly before he shouted his commands, “Guard the Monarch Shrine, don’t let them disturb Master!”
“Yes, sir!”
The Boundless Giant answered cohesively as they went on standby, staying alert to the figures closing in on them.
However, as those figures approached, the divine might became more and more powerful, which almost turned into a solid suppression over the Boundless Giants on the mountain. The overwhelming aura pressed everyone like a primordial divine mountain up in their hearts, as all the giants could no longer muster the courage to battle.
“Great Perfection deities! They’re all Great Perfection-level extraterrestrial demons!” The Great Prophet’s face became especially awful, his voice trembling.
“What? Great Perfection?” Olio exclaimed as his heart sank to the bottom.
Across the entire Boundless Plane, Great Perfection was a mythical concept which most Boundless Giants dreamed of achieving, but it was a domain they could never ever enter!
At that moment, however, there were already a few Great Perfection-level extraterrestrial demons that spelled disaster. Who could stop their attacks?
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Just as the Boundless Giants’ morale sank to the very bottom, shrill air-piercing sounds rang—the six Great Perfection deities arrived above the mountaintop.
They looked down from above, sweeping their glances at the Boundless Giants. They did not hide their divine power as they overwhelmed the giants’ minds incessantly.
“This is the Monarch Mountain?”
“It must be it!”
“Where’s that knave?”
“I’ll grab someone to ask!”
Gaianos grabbed in the air and caught a giant.
Extreme terror overwhelmed this giant while he struggled madly.
It was pointless.
Any struggles were in vain. Gaianos did not hesitate to crush this poor giant’s skull and took out his divine core.
“Bastard!”
After watching that scene, Olio and the rest widened their eyes to the point of splitting, and they shot themselves toward Gaianos. However, a glance was all it took for Gaianos to repel Olio and the rest. They flew off, coughing up blood.
The difference was really too big!
One glance, and they were heavily injured!
“Trash!”
Gaianos held the divine core and searched the soul violently. Shrill, horrific screams of that giant rang. The suffering from the violent soul-reading was too unbearable.
“Ugh!”
With blood at the corners of his lips, Olio wanted to charge again before the Gre
at Prophet stopped him.
“The difference is power is too huge! All you will achieve by doing that is dying aimlessly!”
“Then what do we do? Are we going to stand and watch this go on?” Olio bellowed, his eyes bloodshot. He had never been this furious before.
“Just wait. Once Master refines the Heart of The Existential Plane, that’s the time they perish!”
As the wisest, oldest Boundless Giant, the Great Prophet saw things crystal clear.
“Ugh!”
Olio held his fists tightly.
The whole soul-reading process did not take long. Gaianos threw away the divine core casually and looked at the Monarch Shrine.
“How was it, Gaianos? Where’s that knave?” The other Great Perfection deities asked impatiently.
Gaianos did not answer. Instead, he raised his right hand and swiped down his palm pointed at the tall, lofty Monarch Shrine. The shrine collapsed in an instant.
Gaianos swung his sleeves as the ruins went away with the winds.
The Monarch Shrine disappeared.
“No one?”
“Where’s that knave?”
“If he’s not in this shrine, then he should be in the Boundless Plane’s Land of Origin!”
Gaianos’ expression turned awful.
“The Land of Origin?”
The other five Great Perfection deities had similar expressions.
The Land of Origin was the land where the Heart of The Existential Plane was in. The mid-end existential plane was huge, so the Land of Origin was never easy to find. Even if they were Great Perfection deities, they still needed to put in the effort.
“Search at once! We must find him before he completely refines the Heart of The Existential Plane! Otherwise, we’ll be in trouble! We’ll split out now!”
The six Great Perfection deities looked at each other as they were about to search for the Land of Origin. Just then, a soft sound of the slicing of air echoed.
Gaianos’ expression changed slightly. He tilted his head to the left instinctively. A three-colored spear flew right past his temple.
“How dare you act so presumptuously in my territory! How bold of you!”
Chapter 366: Destruction Laws of Nature, Killing Great Perfection Deities
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“How dare you act so presumptuously in my territory! How bold of you!”
An aloof voice rang out, and right away, someone else had already appeared in the sky. He had a head of black hair, a pair of black eyes, handsome looks, and a proportionate figure with perfect contours. His looks were perfect and flawless, easily giving Pan An a run for his money and firmly surpassed Song Yu’s.
“Master!”
At the sight of the newcomer, the Great Prophet, Olio, and the others could hardly keep their feelings in control. They had never longed for Meng Lei to show up as much as how they currently did.
“He’s finally appeared!”
Gaianos, Ebenezer, Adolphus, Burnside, and the other two Great Perfection deities also turned to Meng Lei, light flashing across their eyes.
“One, two... Five, six!”
Meng Lei’s gaze flitted past the six Great Perfection deities one by one. Disappointment filled him at once.
Why are there only six of them that came? What a disappointment!
A Great Perfection deity was worth 12 billion Divinity Crystals. Even with six of them, the total value would never exceed 80 billion Divinity Crystals, even at the maximum!
How disappointing!
This bit of money wasn’t even enough to fill in any gaps!
“Eh?”
However, at this exact moment, Meng Lei suddenly noticed a five-colored light ball falling from one of the Great Perfection deities. A system notification rang out right away.
“Ding! Dropped item detected. Will you pick it up?”
“A five-colored light ball?”
Meng Lei perked up, and he ordered, “Pick it up!”
“Ding! Pickup successful. You have obtained a Laws of Nature Fragment. Will you assimilate it?” asked the system.
“Assimilate it!”
Boom!
A torrent of data instantly gushed into his mind, flashing swiftly across his eyes as though it were a movie that was being played. Meng Lei hurriedly checked it out.
Immense joy then filled Meng Lei right away.
“Thunder, ice, metal, dark, and fire elements! Tsk, tsk! To think it’s a fusion laws of nature fragment that’s actually made up of these five elements!”
Meng Lei was extremely excited.
“I searched far and wide to no avail, only to obtain it so effortlessly in the end! Never would I have ever thought that I would actually obtain destruction laws of nature like this! Even the heavens are on my side! Hahaha!”
Thunder, ice, metal, dark, and fire—these were exactly the five elements corresponding to the destruction laws of nature!
Destruction laws of nature were one of the five supreme laws of nature, yet he had obtained it so easily! One could easily imagine just how excited Meng Lei must be.
“Hahaha!”
Wild laughter boomed in the sky like thunder, its reverberations breaking the dimension around them and causing it to vibrate and shake. Everyone looked absolutely stupefied.
He had suddenly burst into raucous laughter?
He could actually still bring himself to laugh when six Great Perfection deities surrounded him? Had his brain been caught in between Sister Feng’s1 a*s?
The six Great Perfection deities’ expressions darkened, feeling as though they had been insulted. How dare he laugh when they were standing right in front of him?
Gaianos barked in a deep voice, “I’m going to tear you into a million pieces for killing my child, you knave!”
Before he even finished speaking, he had already raised his right palm and smacked it down at Meng Lei.
Boom!
As though Buddha’s Palm, a massive palm that blotted out the sky appeared above Meng Lei.
The Great Prophet and the others’ expressions changed greatly upon sensing the massive palm’s terrifying might, and they hastily shouted a warning, “Look out, Master!”
“Insignificant tricks!”
Meng Lei’s smile disappeared. He couldn’t help but shake his head lightly as he looked up at the huge palm crashing down upon him. Then, he formed a sword with his index finger and middle finger and slashed lightly across the air. The sound of something ripping apart rang out, and the massive palm that carried with it boundless destructive might and blotted out the sky was instantly cleaved into two, disappearing into nothingness upon being destroyed.
“What?”
A huge jolt went through Gaianos, whose eyes were filled with incredulity. Although that palm strike was just a casual strike from him, it was in no way an attack that an ordinary higher deity could fight against. Yet Meng Lei had casually cleaved it apart...?
“Kid, are you also a Great Perfection deity?”
Gaianos was rather alarmed and unsettled. Since the other party was able to slaughter high-level higher deities and high-level Great Demon Gods at will, it was evident that he was infinitely close to the Great Perfection stage!
And now, he had even countered his attack so effortlessly. This was something that only Great Perfection deities could do.
“He’s a Great Perfection deity?!”
A shock went through Ebenezer and the other Great Perfection deities. At once, a hint of incredulity surfaced in their eyes that were fixed on Meng Lei. A 45-year-old Great Perfection deity?
What kind of joke was that?
“Great Perfection? No, I’m not.”
Meng Lei shook his head and denied the statement.
Whew~
It’s a good thing he isn’t one! That gave me a fright!
Gaianos and the others secretly heaved sighs of relief. Things would become rather tricky if Meng Lei were really a Great Perfection deity. Even wi
th the six of them joining hands, it would still be a lot of work if they wish to kill a Great Perfection deity!
After all, a Great Perfection deity... wasn’t that easy to kill!
“You worm, how dare you slaughter the experts from the major godly clans! You practically can’t get any more perverse than that! Today, I shall give you a terrible death!”
Ebenezer, the Great Perfection deity from the Giant Elephant Gods, let out an icy snort and brazenly went on the offensive.
He vanished from where he was in the blink of an eye. Then, he raised his car-sized fist and smashed it toward Meng Lei.
The Giant Elephant Gods were naturally blessed with Herculean strength and cultivated only their physical body. Among those of the same grade, only the Behemoth Gods, the Titan Gods, and the Scarab Gods could contend against them.
As a deity with a Great Perfection-level body, Ebenezer was undoubtedly top-class among the Great Perfection deities when it came to one’s divine body’s level of sturdiness and physical strength. As such, one could easily imagine the destructive power contained within his fist.
It was just a shame that Meng Lei merely gave a light shake of his head even when he was faced with such an earth-shattering punch. He reached out a finger and pointed lightly at the powerful punch intending to smash him into a bloody pulp.
“He’s using a finger to counter Ebenezer’s powerful punch head-on?”
“How arrogant!”
“How presumptuous!”
“He overestimates himself!”
“I’ve never seen such an arrogant person in my whole life! Just you watch—he’ll definitely die in a very, very tragic manner...”
The five Great Perfection deities gnashed their teeth in fury at the sight of Meng Lei’s actions, which had significantly angered them.
“You’re courting death!”
Ebenezer, who felt that his pride as a Great Perfection deity had been immensely insulted, also flew into a rage. He couldn’t help but apply even more force in his punch, causing the punch’s might to spike.
Spurt!
Meng Lei’s index finger and Ebenezer’s powerful punch clashed against each other. The very next moment, something that none of them ever imagined would have happened took place—their finger and fist clashed against each other like a watermelon and a nail colliding with each other. Following a spurt, Ebenezer’s fist was pierced right through—Meng Lei’s finger... had jabbed deeply into it!
