Chapter 746 - 740: Ambush, Extremely Dark Celestial Curtain

Becoming familiar with upgraded attributes, Lin You soon returned to the territory.

To his surprise, as soon as he landed, he encountered the Sub-human Race Leader and several clansmen approaching him.

"Is there something you want from me?"

Lin You flipped and landed in front of the two.

"Greetings, Celestial God," the Sub-human Race Leader bowed slightly, "I am here to fulfill the previous condition."

"Oh? Finally made up your mind?" Lin You raised an eyebrow.

Back when he healed the Saint Radiance Emperor, he had said that regardless of the condition, as long as he could achieve it, he wouldn't refuse. The other party considered for half a month before finally seeking him out. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ

It seems they've decided what they want.

"Speak, what do you want?"

"I wish for... your promise," the Sub-human Race Leader hesitated for a moment and said.

"A promise?"

"Yes, if you become the Main God someday, I hope you will help lift the curse preventing our Sub-human Race from cultivating."

This condition was decided by the Sub-human Race Leader after much careful thought.

Because their soul power is mixed, the Sub-human Race is restricted by the rules, unable to cultivate and enhance their strength.

This is undoubtedly a heavy shackle, keeping them inferior in the Divine Realm, even reduced to humble slaves.

The only chance to rise is for the Main God, who possesses supreme power, to accomplish this.

And Lin You is their hope.

He's also their only hope.

Because of their low status, they typically have few opportunities to interact with Celestial Gods, making Lin You's promise incredibly important to them.

Considering this period of understanding Lin You and the rumors surrounding him, the leader decided to bet on him.

Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, he wants to take it.

"You want me to help lift the curse upon you?"

Lin You's expression was odd; he's currently only a Level 3 Celestial God, why do they believe he can become the Main God?

Moreover, even if he becomes the Main God, he can't be certain he can change the rules.

"Yes." The Sub-human Race Leader nodded earnestly, "Regardless of success or failure, I want to try. If we fail, I hope you will consider that I once saved your close relatives and care for the Sub-human Race."

Saying this, he bowed deeply to Lin You.

This demonstrated that the leader genuinely cares for his people, seeking to liberate the entire Sub-human Race from a humble destiny.

Lin You thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I can agree to your condition, but you'll need to send more clansmen skilled in crystal manipulation to help. Only if we successfully conquer the Divine Kingdom can I potentially become the Main God."

The final Main God inheritance at the center of the Divine Kingdom has been on Lin You's mind for a long time.

But acquiring it seems challenging with their current strength.

Just the seven Great Celestial Kings alone won't easily let them invade the Divine Kingdom, let alone approach the Main God's territory.

The Sub-human Race's ability to absorb crystal stones at double the effect, accelerating strength enhancement, is exactly what they need now.

"No problem, I'll immediately return to the tribe and gather a batch of clansmen!"

Upon receiving Lin You's response, the Sub-human Race Leader was somewhat excited and quickly agreed, then hurriedly left with his clansmen.

For safety's sake, Lin You dispatched Hidden Dragon and a Green Dragon Legion to escort them, speeding the process.

After all, he's already replicated Hidden Dragon's skills.

Even without Hidden Dragon, the Dragon Race species around him receive enhancements, so there's no need to worry about aerial combat power declining too much.

"Alright, it's about time to make some preparations."

Watching the Sub-human Race Leader disappear into the horizon, Lin You withdrew his gaze and also left the territory, heading towards where several emperors responsible for gathering Divine Kingdom information were located.

...

In the blink of an eye, noon arrived the next day.

Just as the Forest Holy Sanctuary was fervently assembling troops, while various forces in the Divine Realm were continually discussing.

Around the Forest Holy Sanctuary, a large number of Lords came to gather information, including many low-level Celestial Gods dispatched by the Divine Kingdom, hidden in various surrounding corners.

"Do you think Lin You will be inside?"

High in the sky, dozens of figures hid in the clouds, carefully probing the situation below.

"It must be right; reports already say Duan Changfeng is here."

"In any case, it's better to confirm and see who else is here."

"They dare to openly defy our Divine Kingdom, it's laughable, do they think we're toothless tigers now?"

Among these dozen people, each has strong capability, all above Level 5 True God.

The three leading figures have even reached the level of Level 2 Celestial Gods, a formidable force even in the entire Divine Realm.

No wonder they dare to blatantly approach so close to the Forest Holy Sanctuary without fearing detection by Lords below.

Moreover, for this mission's success, they've specially brought teleportation artifacts.

Even if encountered by High-level Celestial Gods' Time Laws, they can teleport and escape before being confined by the laws, making it foolproof.

"Something's wrong."

Suddenly, the eldest Celestial God among the three furrowed his brows, scanning sharply around as if sensing something.

"What's wrong?"

Others looked at him curiously.

Unexpectedly, the man's expression changed dramatically at that moment.

"Not good, the wind direction has gone awry; retreat quickly!"

With a shout, he activated Space Law almost instinctively, crossing space to flee, while a teleportation artifact appeared in his hand.

However.

His movements were still a step too slow.

"Discovered so soon? Unfortunately, it's too late."

A cold voice rang out, and with a "buzz," an invisible wave rippled out, instantly freezing all the time around them, halting their attempts to flee.

Immediately afterward, amidst the surrounding mist, countless Flying Species appeared.

It was Lin You, Yan Lie, Situ Jian, and Dragon Emperor Saint Emperor Ji Yunshuang, along with six others!

"Take action!"

Without much unnecessary talk, accompanied by a Barbaric Roar from Lin You, the species around them burst into action under the cover of a red glow, launching a fierce attack while the enemy was immobilized by the time freeze.

Lin You and Situ Jian then targeted the three Level 2 Celestial Gods.

Tens of thousands of Destructive Dragon Breaths and surging insect swarms appeared simultaneously, completely engulfing them.

More than a dozen Divine Country Lords didn't even have the chance to scream before being blasted into pulp, instantly killed on the spot.

[Killed Tier Fourteen Lord, gained "Resource Treasure Pearl (Celestial God)" x1]

[Killed Tier Fourteen Lord, gained "Resource Treasure Pearl (Celestial God)" x1]

Two consecutive notifications rang in Lin You's mind.

However, the Celestial God who reacted first suddenly flashed a figure due to a life-saving skill passively triggered after being attacked, instantly teleporting one kilometer away, leaving a broken illusion behind.

"Substitute Skill?"

Situ Jian's expression turned serious, immediately commanding the insect army to chase after him.

"Void Nether!"

Lin You followed closely, directly activating the Void Space not far from where the enemy was, interrupting the usage of his teleportation artifact.

"Damn it!"

The man cursed silently and fled outside without hesitation.

At the same time, he summoned tens of thousands of Demon Species to block Lin You and the others' pursuit, not giving them the chance to employ the Time Law.

But in the next second, he found out that, at some unknown point, several bright red Dandelion Seeds had already attached to him, causing him to feel dizzy.

Soul-Seeking Slaughter Illusion Realm, activated!

Any enemy parasitized by her Dandelion Seeds would fall into a brief illusion, indiscriminately killing friend or foe.

At that moment, a rapid afterimage appeared, easily skimming past the Demon Army to reach the back, slicing him several times.

"Poof!"

Blood splattered.

A Level 2 Celestial God was slashed with countless cuts by Situ Jian's Royal Phantom Mantis, finally, a sharp scythe swept across his throat, causing him to scream as he plummeted from the sky.

Yet, after all, Situ Jian was only a Level 1 Celestial God.

Even with the 30% boost from Barbaric Roar, he couldn't achieve a one-hit kill on a Level 2 Celestial God.

The Demon Species, seeing him in danger, quickly surrounded him, forcing the Phantom Mantis backward.

Some ranged attacked fiercely, targeting the pursuing Situ Jian, forcing him to use the Time Law to retreat swiftly.

BOOM!

With a loud rumble, Cyan Rattan, who had been waiting below for a long time, took action. Countless vines shot skyward, binding all the obstructive Demon Species.

Meanwhile, Lingxi beside Lin You unleashed a group entanglement, instantly binding the wings of all demons within a kilometer range, causing them to fall from the sky one by one.

"Now's our chance!"

Lin You shouted to Situ Jian, who was relatively close by.

Situ Jian wasted no time, and another royal figure from the insect army appeared. A multicolored Phoenix Butterfly hovered in place, alongside an Extraordinary Level Phoenix Butterfly, shedding a wide mist of dust.

Affected Phantom Mantis's momentum surged abruptly, darting through the gaps in the Demon Army as if through an unoccupied area.

The scythe's cold gleam carved through the sky, instantly tearing the severely injured and dying Demon Lord into shreds, its body exploding with a "bang."

[Killed Tier Fourteen Lord, gained "Resource Treasure Pearl (Celestial God)" x1]

The pleasant notification rang in Situ Jian's mind, and all Demon Species perished following the Lord's death.

"We did it!"

Situ Jian was ecstatic, never expecting his first battle after advancement to slay a Level 2 Celestial God.

Although much of it was thanks to Lin You, he still couldn't help feeling overwhelmed with emotion.

He, Situ Jian, was finally one step closer to the biological father he had never met!

Meanwhile.

On the other side, the battle between the Dragon Emperor and the True Gods had also reached a fever pitch.

Thanks to Lin You's Time Freeze, they seized the initiative, instantly killing more than half of the True Gods at the start.

The remaining few, though their levels were higher, didn't possess Royal Species like Dragon Emperor and Ji Yunshuang, forcing them into a retreat under their assault, while Saint Emperor supported from the rear with Holy Light Magic.

"Extremely Dark Celestial Curtain!"

In the form of a War Angel, Ji Yunshuang shouted mightily. Finally, as the enemy's defenses crumbled, the Royal Fallen Angel's Big Skill, Extremely Dark Celestial Curtain, was unleashed.

In an instant, a black celestial curtain descended.

All enemy species caught within were slain, transforming into Fallen Angels wielding black chains and scythes, who then attacked other species and the remaining lords.

The entire scene was chaotic, a moment of utter darkness.

Even Lin You, looking on from afar, couldn't help but marvel.

Combined with the Dragon Emperor's newly acquired Royal Species, the Frost Dragon King's blizzard control ability, they finally eliminated the remaining few in a burst of attacks.

Over a dozen Divine Country Lords, not a single one survived!
