Chapter 1661: Chapter 11: Insufficient Privileges

The escaping Pillar God split into two factions, not all taking a dead-end path.

The route in the sky was too obvious, so Goddess Maat suggested passing through the dense forest on ground… The silver girl’s speed was fast, catching up with Goddess Maat in an instant.

The Pillar God who held the war god authority of the Ancient Egyptian Divine Nation turned to block, slashing down all the dozen silver girls, and while these silver girls began to heal, pulled Goddess Maat and another Pillar God back into the mountains and forests.

Maat frowned at this time, “These secret location guards are indeed as Father God said, impossible to kill… You’ve really messed up this time!”

“I know!” replied the Pillar God, who held the war god authority, carelessly.

The anger surged within Goddess Maat, secretly resenting this brother’s attitude at the moment… Yet clearly before leaving, he had confessed to Father God but now showed such indifference.

This brother, holding the war god authority, had always been upright and straightforward, but since when had he become like this?

“You know and yet… What are you doing—!”

Goddess Maat couldn’t help but widen her eyes, her face full of shock!

She and this brother who held the war god authority, along with another Pillar God, walked the path through the dense forest on ground—yet at this moment, this brother suddenly pierced the third Pillar God’s chest with his sword from behind!

The Pillar God who was ambushed didn’t even have time to scream, his body already violently torn open by the brother… then devoured in one gulp!

As the shocking turn of events unfolded, Goddess Maat’s anger soared!

“What am I doing? I’m just doing what I ought to do!” The Pillar God who held the war god authority now had red eyes, a fierce expression on his face, “I’m already fed up with Father God’s cowardice! Coming to this void world, at no time have we not been like rats in the street! He should be stronger, he should be more ruthless, but he’s not! He’s unfit as the Divine Lord of the pantheon!”

“You—!!”

“You will all become my strength! I will gather all the divine authority of the pantheon… This place is undoubtedly a fine place! Out there, I likely won’t find an opportunity to act… Oh, my dear sister!”

“You earlier intended to attack the secret location’s guards…” Goddess Maat suddenly realized everything.

But it was too late… Her strength was far below this brother’s, and now the brother had already devoured a Pillar God, increasing his power!

“Maat, become my strength… while those guards haven’t caught up yet! Rest assured, I will wait at the exit for Father God’s return, then tell him that you all were killed by the guards!”

Unable to resist, under the explosive might of the brother’s vast divine power, Goddess Maat’s shoulder was pierced!

All these years, she had been sleeping in the City of the Sun, and after waking, even sold The Scale of Good and Evil for a chance to save the Pillar God in the fallen sub-world 002… Just arriving in this dimensional gap, running around exhausted, without time to improve herself, how could she be a match for her seasoned brother?

She couldn’t even retaliate at this moment.

“Don’t blame me! If you must, blame Father God—why didn’t he carve out a glorious path for us here!”

Divine power surged, carrying a brutal aura. Goddess Maat instantly felt death approaching.

But at that moment, a silver flash appeared, and in the next instant, the head of the brother, who had held the absolute upper hand, exploded!

Then the silver flash appeared twice more.

Once, the brother’s chest was blown open… Another, the brother’s Divine Power Crystal was actually shattered!

Bang—!

The body fell directly to the ground… Right in front of Goddess Maat.

Not the attack style of those secret location guards… But something else!

Besides their Pillar God group and the follower who took Tai Yinzi, someone else was present—A third party attacked and killed the brother!

Goddess Maat looked at the brother’s corpse lying on the ground, the forcibly shattered Divine Power Crystal, and the Divine Status representing the war god authority that automatically stripped away after the main body’s death, both shocked and furious… Her eyes nervously scanned the surroundings, but she didn’t know where the ambusher was hiding!

Moved!

Suddenly, Goddess Maat saw something moving on the grassland ahead… Suddenly, someone stood up!

It was a girl, covered in sod and face smeared dark green, carrying an oversized rifle… Appearing like a sniper rifle!

Maat recognized the sniper rifle… During her time in the City of the Sun, due to Professor Xie Jiatu’s influence, she had a detailed understanding of the current modern civilization!

However… Such a weapon, able to within a few shots, directly snipe and kill her brother with significant divine power, was beyond Maat’s comprehension.

“Have I hidden well?” The girl approached with a cheerful smile, “This thing is called an Auspicious Uniform, handmade by me… Really, the beasts in this broken place have too good sense of smell, without an Auspicious Uniform, I can’t improve my meals.”

As if talking to herself… The girl slowly approached, carrying a sniper rifle longer than her height.

“Who are you…” Goddess Maat immediately became alert.

The girl walked directly to the corpse of the Pillar God who held the war god authority, reached out and picked up the Divine Power Crystal fragments and the Divine Status containing the authority, then tossed them into her mouth—devoured them!

“Finally saw an outsider, still a miss sister…” The girl squinted her eyes, “Rest assured, I’ll leave you alive… Come, chat with me.”

“You’re not afraid of those secret location guards?!” Goddess Maat felt a stir in her heart.

The girl shrugged, “Did you see them coming… Here, they’re quite obedient.”

Indeed, since this girl cloaked in sod suddenly appeared, those silver girls seemed to have left… Goddess Maat was startled.

At that moment, pain erupted behind her… Goddess Maat instinctively lowered her head, only to see her duplicate at this moment pierced from behind by a sharp blade!

When…

She felt the wound starting to numb instantly, while simultaneously a dizzying feeling surged—This sharp blade was smeared with a poison so vicious that even a god’s body could be poisoned!

This sod-covered… Auspicious Uniform wearing girl slowly came beside Goddess Maat, squatting down.

The girl blinked her eyes, pondered for a moment, then directly used her hand to cover Goddess Maat’s exquisite face with mud dust.

Then, she searched all over the goddess body, “The key… isn’t here.”

She seemed thoughtful, looking up at another direction… Suddenly, the girl lifted the severely injured goddess and jumped into the air.

…

“Bloodline Mother Tree… really in this direction?”

Tamamo-no-Mae looked at Tai Yinzi with some doubt… But at the moment of questioning, she didn’t see any movement from the other’s body, not even a moment of hesitation.

Still appearing to be rather sure.

“Of course!” Tai Yinzi didn’t even turn his head, casually replied—Turning back was impossible, if he did, he wouldn’t be able to hide!

He looked as calm as an old dog on the outside, but inside he was already panicking… He was merely stalling for time, trying to think about how to escape from Tamamo-no-Mae.

Tai Yinzi obviously hadn’t thought of any particularly effective methods.

“How much longer?” Tamamo-no-Mae asked again… this time with a smarter phrasing.

“Very soon! Just up ahead!” Tai Yinzi had no choice but to grit his teeth and speak… where’s the turning point? Old Taoist, I’m about to crumble!

“Oh, it’s really just up ahead! You really didn’t lie to me!”

“??”

To his surprise, Tamamo-no-Mae suddenly shouted for joy and then directly leapt past Tai Yinzi, walking quickly forward… ahead, in a shallow pit, there was actually a strange tree emitting a red glow, with leaves half red and half bright green.

Tamamo-no-Mae had already jumped in front of this strange tree, reaching out to pick a drooping fruit from the tree, “I never thought, it’s really the King of Bloodline Fruits!”

Tai Yinzi: “??”

Tamamo-no-Mae turned her head and directly tossed the fruit she had picked over to Tai Yinzi, “I promised you, this is your share!”

Tai Yinzi instinctively caught the fruit in his hand, staring at it, “??”

“Alright!” Tamamo-no-Mae called out at this time, “Bloodline Fruits can’t touch the ground, and tools that store objects won’t work; you have to catch them with both hands… come on over, pick some more for me, don’t just stand there… True Solar Sage?”

Tai Yinzi’s lips moved slightly as he again glanced at the fruit cradled in his hand.

—My goodness!

—My goodness! My goodness!

—Did I really get lucky this time?

He had no idea where the Bloodline Mother Tree was… he had just been pointing aimlessly—however, it seemed to be a good thing?

“I’m coming!”

With both hands holding the fruit, Tai Yinzi immediately ran over to Tamamo-no-Mae, his face brimming with cheer.

“Ah—why has the Mother Tree been transplanted out!” The voice of Solar Deity Ra suddenly resounded, “It’s mine! How dare you touch it!”

Upon hearing Solar Deity Ra’s voice, Tai Yinzi instantly shivered.

A figure swiftly rushed out, but in a rather unkempt appearance—it was none other than Solar Deity Ra, the leader of that group of Pillar Gods!

“Treasures of the Place of the Voidfall are known to those who are destined… first come, first served.” Tamamo-no-Mae casually chuckled, feeling today was truly a lucky day.

“Die!” The disheveled Solar Deity Ra shouted angrily at this moment.

Immense Divine Power began to erupt instantly… Tamamo-no-Mae’s expression couldn’t help but change slightly, frowning at Tai Yinzi, “Did you provoke a powerful Divine Power?”

Tai Yinzi: “??”

He didn’t know what a powerful Divine Power was, but it was undoubtedly troublesome… this outburst from Solar Deity Ra sent chills down his spine, making his legs go soft.

“Damn it…” Tamamo-no-Mae gritted her teeth, seeming about to do something.

Unexpectedly, Solar Deity Ra, who had burst forth with Divine Power, suddenly stopped—chains of silver were entangled around his body!

These chains were pulling Solar Deity Ra’s body up forcibly!

“Get away!!” The enraged Solar Deity Ra shouted, and even stronger Divine Power began to pour out!

But just then, from above, silver chains shot down one after another… like venomous snakes, they coiled around Solar Deity Ra within moments.

Under the restraint of these chains, the immense Divine Power fluctuating from Solar Deity Ra began to diminish bit by bit—eventually, Solar Deity Ra’s body collapsed weakly.

He wanted to struggle, but ultimately even the strength to struggle bizarrely vanished… the chains upon him seemed able to suppress all his power.

Tamamo-no-Mae and Tai Yinzi both froze, then showed expressions of shock… they subconsciously looked up to see a dense gathering of identically featured silver girls hovering in the sky.

Without speaking, dozens more silver chains shot out instantly from the palms of these silver girls—this time, the targets were Tamamo-no-Mae and… Tai Yinzi!

“Gaia?!”

Seeing these silver girls appear, Tai Yinzi shivered—a striking resemblance! These silver girls looked just like the Gaia entities he encountered at the Penglai Treasury!

Aside from the different material… the resemblance was definite? Could this place have some special connection to the Penglai Treasury?

But there wasn’t time for Tai Yinzi to think further, as the chains had already successfully bound him—following Solar Deity Ra, Tai Yinzi also fell powerlessly to the ground, as though his strength had been drained.

Yet, Tamamo-no-Mae didn’t attack these silver girls nor resist the silver chains—when the crisis hit, she vanished instantly.

Soon after, Tai Yinzi only saw a streak of light flash into the deep forest—carrying off a King of Bloodline Fruits.

Some of the silver girls immediately chased after her, but others stayed behind.

One of the silver girls walked over to Tai Yinzi at this point… the old Taoist lay there on the ground, struggling to lift his head, “Too similar…”

[Subordinate Permission Confirmed… Welcome to your presence.]

—It’s here! Just as expected!

Tai Yinzi looked delighted, this kind of scenario was all too familiar to him—he could turn the tides against all odds!

[But you lack visitor permissions, subordinate permissions are insufficient to enter the Royal Third Garden, trespassing, according to imperial civil law records, warrants arrest, declaration complete… commence execution.]

Tai Yinzi: “??”

Wait, this development is off!

With that, Tai Yinzi was hoisted up directly by two silver girls.

Meanwhile, three silver girls simultaneously drew Golden Swords and walked to the immobilized Solar Deity Ra… the Golden Sword raised, poised to strike.

But the actions of these three silver girls abruptly halted—the Golden Sword now hung in front of Solar Deity Ra.

[Third-tier Permission Command Confirmed… Suspend execution of the convict, bring back to Sky Island]

[Visitor Key confiscated]

[Return]
