Chapter 244.3: The Evil God Lu Changsheng Manifests His Saint Body, Destroying the True God in the Moon Capital With a Single Blow! (III)

By mobilizing the power of his mind, Lu Changsheng had unwittingly released a ripple of tremendous mental force, one that was impossible to conceal from the people present.

Sure enough, the expressions of the people in the crowd twisted with shock.

"E-Evil God... There's an Evil God among us!"

"Insolence! An Evil God dares to break into the Moon Capital? Seize it! Kill on sight!"

"Divine Children! All Divine Children into action!"

The situation quickly devolved into chaos. No one had imagined that an Evil God could appear in the Moon Capital of all places, and so brazenly at that, seemingly with one of the participants in the trial under its control. What was the Evil God trying to do?

Countless Divine Children came surging out, reaching for the seeds of faith within them, and tremendous power tore through the air into their bodies at once, a frightening presence radiating off them.

Lu Changsheng narrowed his eyes slightly and took a single step forward.

Boom!

The air shuddered, as though a tremendous storm had erupted around him. The Divine Children collapsed one after another, corpses dropping to the ground in a line, which left the onlookers more terrified still.

Lu Changsheng had scarcely exerted himself, not even resorting to one of his divine abilities. He had merely let out the faintest thread of his Saint Body's aura, and he had crushed the Divine Children where they stood.

However well they had adapted to the seeds of faith inside them, their bodies were still ordinary mortal flesh. They stood no chance against the pressure of Lu Changsheng's Saint Body.

"Insolence!" A furious shout rang out from the sky, and a towering figure wreathed in golden radiance surfaced there. The power of faith of the entire Moon Capital streamed toward that figure, and a terrifying pressure settled over the whole city.

"It's the Great Moon False God!"

"Quick, kneel before the Great Moon False God!"

"Great Moon False God, please protect us and drive back the Evil God!"

Everyone in the Moon Capital knew that was the Great Moon False God. Throughout the Great Moon Divine Empire, the False God was the one who truly held control, while the True God was more of a spiritual symbol for the people. In fact, almost no one had ever seen the True God, but many had seen the False God, and his divine majesty was truly like an endless ocean to them.

Here in the Moon Capital, above all, where the power of faith was most potent and every strand of it converged upon the False God, his presence was enough to shake heaven and earth. Everyone knelt on the ground, trembling with a fear that seemed to rise from the depths of their soul.

However, Lu Changsheng merely smiled. That's the False God?

The strength of a False God revealed the strength of the true one, and he could tell at a glance that the Great Moon False God before him was rather weak. Indeed, in Lu Changsheng's eyes, the so-called Great Moon False God, with the entire capital's power of faith gathered into him, was unremarkable.

Ultimately, this False God could only rival Divine Ability cultivators. In other words, he was not even close to Lu Changsheng's level. That had to be true for the True God as well.

"Insolent Evil God, you stand before me and still refuse to repent!" The roar of the False God shook the heavens.

Everyone lowered their heads in terror, not daring to look up. Only a very few, Tang Lu among them, dared to raise their eyes, and what they saw was the Evil God's cold smile.

"So loud..." Lu Changsheng could not be bothered to engage with the Great Moon False God. He simply extended his hand.

Buzz!

Following his motion, an enormous hand manifested in the sky. Against the wind, the hand instantly swelled beyond measure. The giant hand then descended from the heavens, blotting out the sun as it swept down to seize the False God.

"Ghraaa!" The Great Moon False God roared, and a vast tide of faith power condensed into a colossal fist that drove up against Lu Changsheng's palm and struck it with full force.

Boom!

The sky shuddered, yet that blow failed to budge Lu Changsheng's hand in the slightest.

His hand came down all the same and closed hard around the False God's massive body. The hand then squeezed tight, and that massive body collapsed in an instant, shrinking violently.

Splurt!

By the time the hand had closed completely, the Great Moon False God within it had been crushed out of existence, utterly destroyed. Just like that, the Great Moon False God had been snuffed out by one squeeze of Lu Changsheng's hand, its divine body wiped away.

The people of the Moon Capital could only stare at one another, and the entire city fell into a graveyard silence. That was a False God. How could a False God lose? And not just lose, but be crushed to death, seemingly powerless to resist.

"That Evil God..."

Everyone was trembling all over. The Evil God's strength went beyond anything they could imagine, and now that it had struck down the Great Moon False God, would it wash the whole capital in blood?

But Lu Changsheng knew perfectly well that the False God was not dead. Such an entity relied on faith, and as long as the Great Moon True God lived, the False God would not die either. The true root of the matter was the True God.

Even so, the False God had burned away a great deal of the power of faith and could not possibly recover any time soon, and once the True God perished, the false one would die along with it. As such, Lu Changsheng gave the False God no further thought. His target had only ever been one: the Great Moon True God.

He knew where the True God was hiding, but it still had not shown itself, and since it would not come out on its own, Lu Changsheng would bring it out himself.

"Saint Body!"

Boom!

Lu Changsheng went all out and unleashed his Primordial Chaos Saint Body. The colossal stood a hundred zhang tall, radiating a terrifying aura.

Everyone below shook like the most pitiful creatures alive. Before that Saint Body, any ordinary person was no different from an ant.

Is this Master's true body?

Even Tang Lu was shaken to the core. She had known Lu Changsheng was an Evil God, yet all this time he had never behaved like one, seeming instead gentle and refined, hardly different from an ordinary man.

But ultimately, an Evil God was still an Evil God, and now that this one had finally revealed his true form—a colossal Saint Body that radiated a crushing pressure—no one dared to look at him directly.

Many people had heard the legends of the Evil Gods. Some of the more powerful ones were said to be in no way inferior to a True God, capable of fighting one to the death. Now, the crowd got to witness such a being with their own eyes.

Lu Changsheng drew a deep breath, then drove the Saint Body's fist down toward a particular point on the ground.

Rumble!

The earth split open in a web of cracks, revealing a great pit.

"Come out!"

His Saint Body hammered furiously with its fists into the ground until the bottom of the pit collapsed.

Buzz!

A shaft of golden light shot up into the sky, and a fearsome presence emerged. Lu Changsheng's Saint Body trembled faintly as an equally vast body, a hundred zhang tall, came flying up out of the pit.

That was the Great Moon True God. Everyone present laid eyes on its true form. As it turned out, the True God had been dwelling under the Moon Capital all this time.

"Evil God. You are to be executed!" the True God declared.

There was neither sorrow nor joy on the Great Moon True God's face. It had been born a deity, the incarnation of Law, and deities did not know feelings. A deity was truly nothing like a Martial Saint or a Nascent Soul cultivator. Every Martial Saint Lu Changsheng had ever seen probably fell short of the being before him.

Still, Lu Changsheng did not hesitate. He immediately threw a punch, which carried the whole of his strength. The Mental Black Hole, the Five Elements Decomposition and the Four Symbols Prison—all enhanced three hundredfold—were fused into one and packed into this one punch.

Without exaggeration, Lu Changsheng could be called the strongest Human Saint alive, and now he was clashing with a deity head-on.

Rumble.

Lu Changsheng's punch collided with the True God's attack. The air around them seemed to distort, and a tremendous shockwave rolled outward in every direction.

A True God had no need of faith, as it wielded the power of Law. A Martial Saint, by contrast, wielded pure strength, all that vast might residing in the body itself. Now, the collision between those two forces shook heaven and earth.

Lu Changsheng's fist stalled for the briefest instant. Then, the immeasurable divine abilities, enhanced several hundredfold, erupted with terrible force and tore straight through the True God's punch like a blade splitting bamboo. That tremendous power then crashed into the god's enormous body.

Crack!

Everyone heard it clearly. The Great Moon True God's body had shattered, a fissure running across it, then two, then three. Within moments, its whole body was covered in cracks.

There was neither sorrow nor joy on the True God's face, but its eyes carried something like confusion. The god seemed unable to understand what had just occurred. Had the god just lost, despite being the incarnation of Law?

Bang!

At last the Great Moon True God's body exploded, broken into multiple shards that drifted through the air.

Just like that, the Great Moon True God had been destroyed.
