CHAPTER 43: CHAPTER 7 MEDUSA QUEEN_1

Gamma Empire.

Gamma Holy City.

As Yun Shan arrived, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted within the imperial mausoleum. A dazzling yellow orb of light followed closely, rising up and flying toward Yun Shan at high speed.

"Yun Shan, is that you? You’ve actually broken through to become a Sect Dou!"

The aged voice carried surprise as the yellow orb trembled slightly, its light slowly contracting to finally reveal an old man with white hair, dressed in a simple linen robe.

He was Jia Xintian, the guardian of the Imperial Family, a mighty individual who had one foot in the rank of Sect Dou.

"Are you here looking for trouble?" Jia Xintian’s gaze was grave as he warily watched Yun Shan.

The relationship between the Cloud Mist Sect and the Gamma Empire was not good. After all, one mountain cannot contain two tigers. Now that Yun Shan had broken through to become a Sect Dou, it was quite natural for him to want to eliminate Jia Xintian, allowing the Cloud Mist Sect to dominate the Gamma Empire.

"Old man Jia, I’m not here to trouble you!" Yun Shan, full of high spirits, laughed and said, "I am here to deliver great Nature to you!"

"Deliver Nature? You think you can help me break through to Sect Dou?" Jia Xintian sneered, not believing Yun Shan’s words.

However, Yun Shan nodded seriously, confidently saying, "Yes! I am here to help you break through to Sect Dou!"

"Yun Shan, don’t think that just because you’ve broken through to Sect Dou, I’m afraid of you. What exactly do you want to do?" Jia Xintian spoke with a hint of anger, thinking Yun Shan was mocking him.

Did he really think that just by breaking through to Sect Dou he could do whatever he pleased?

Even if Yun Shan possessed a method to break through to Sect Dou, he wouldn’t possibly share it with him.

"Old man Jia, I’m not joking with you. I’ve obtained an astonishing Nature and established contact with an incredibly great Immortal God!"

"Just by worshiping the Divine Spirit, you can receive divine grace. That’s how I broke through!" Yun Shan spoke slowly.

Jia Xintian’s gaze grew even more solemn. He asked in a deep voice, "An Immortal God? Could it be that the being is a Lord Dou or a Sage Dou?"

"No. My God is a supreme being who transcends the river of time, immortal and indestructible, an existence that can destroy the cosmos and stars with a flick of a finger, surpassing the Dou Emperor by countless folds."

Thinking of the great being he had seen, Yun Shan couldn’t help but reveal a look of reverence and fervor in his eyes.

Jia Xintian, who had been paying close attention to Yun Shan’s expression, still found it hard to believe.

A being that transcends the river of time, can destroy the cosmos and stars, and surpasses the Dou Emperor?

Was there really such a great existence?

Even if there were, would they favor you?

"Old man Jia, if you pray to that great Divine Spirit once, you will receive divine grace, and then you will know if I have lied to you!" Yun Shan wasted no more words, getting straight to the point.

Jia Xintian looked at Yun Shan for two seconds, then nodded. "Fine!"

He wanted to see what Yun Shan was up to, whether there really was a great existence that surpassed the Dou Emperor.

Of course, even if it wasn’t a being that surpassed the Dou Emperor, even if it were just a Lord Dou or a Sage Dou, he still wanted to see.

A few moments later, a terrifying aura emanated from within Jia Xintian’s body. He opened his eyes, filled with reverence, shock, and... fervor.

"To think there really is such a great existence in this world! Just by praying once, I actually broke through. Moreover, my foundation is solid with no adverse consequences!" Jia Xintian was thoroughly convinced and in awe.

He looked at Yun Shan. "You didn’t come seeking me out merely to deliver Nature, did you? What do you want me to do?"

"Old man Jia, the divine grace obtained through prayer is just a trivial part of what my God offers. If you worship my God, everyone can receive divine grace!"

Jia Xintian nodded, his eyes filled with even greater reverence.

If billions of people were to worship and pray, how much divine grace would the Divine Spirit need to bestow?

It’s simply incalculable.

He didn’t know how many followers the Divine Spirit had, but it was definitely beyond his imagination.

The more he thought about it, the more terrified he became.

Truly, a great being capable of creating countless worlds with a mere breath and shattering star rivers with a flick of a finger.

It was truly... Terrifying to such an extent.

"And by preaching and offering sacrifices for my God, one can receive my God’s rewards! Let alone becoming a Sect Dou, even becoming a Lord Dou or a Sage Dou would be as easy as flipping one’s hand!" Yun Shan said, his voice full of emotion.

"You want me to spread the faith of the Upper God?" Jia Xintian understood and nodded. "That’s easy. Besides, the Upper God is so generous that as long as we pray, we’ll receive divine grace. I don’t think anyone could resist such a temptation!"

Yun Shan nodded, then shook his head, and said, "It’s not just that. I want the Cloud Mist Sect and the Gamma Empire to merge, forming the Hongmeng Divine Sect. We will integrate all surrounding forces and then conduct a sect-wide sacrificial ritual to my God!"

After a moment of silence, Jia Xintian asked, "Who will be in charge of the Hongmeng Divine Sect?"

"Naturally, my disciple Yunyun. She has been favored by my God. Who else could be more suitable than her?" Yun Shan said without hesitation.

"Good!" Jia Xintian hesitated for a moment, then agreed.

With such a great Divine Spirit backing the Cloud Mist Sect, even now that he had broken through to Sect Dou, he would have no power to resist.

Joining them, although the Gamma Empire would cease to exist, would allow him to advance much further on the path of cultivation. This might not be a bad choice.

Moreover, he had no choice.

If he refused, the Gamma Empire would likely be obliterated soon.

"Then, you are to pass down the ’Meditation Method’ recently revealed, and go to the Demon Beast Mountain Range to capture the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King alive for the sacrifice to my God..."

After delegating these tasks, Yun Shan hurried to the Tagore Desert. Following Yunyun’s information, he found Ice Emperor Hai Bodong and successfully persuaded him to believe in the God of Hongmeng. Under the divine grace of the God of Hongmeng, Hai Bodong not only broke Medusa’s seal but also advanced his cultivation level to a seven-star Dou Emperor.

Then, Yun Shan took Hai Bodong to the Snake Race.

...

「Snake Race King City.」

Wave after wave of patrol teams marched within the city. Occasionally, King Dou-level Snake Race leaders would circle above the city ramparts, exuding a powerful deterrent against any outsiders daring to covet the King City.

BOOM!

BOOM!

Suddenly, two violent auras plummeted from the sky. The terrifying pressure filled every inch of space, making the air seem thick and congealed. Sensing the violent aura coming from the void, an aura like the apocalypse, capable of destroying any lifeform, the Snake Race guards were pinned to the ground, shivering. Only the King Dou-level Snake Race powerhouses could barely maintain their combat readiness, their eyes filled with fear as sharp and piercing cries of "Enemy attack!" erupted from their mouths.

"Human powerhouse, may I ask what business brings you to the territory of the Snake Race?" Mobis, a King Dou of the Snake Race, asked. Though furious, he felt the terrifying auras from Yun Shan and Hai Bodong and dared not act rashly.

"Bring your Medusa Queen out to meet us!" Yun Shan’s calm yet domineering voice, amplified by Dou Qi, thundered throughout the city.

Following that, a ripple suddenly stirred in the void, and the space in front of them twisted. Above, the afterglow of the setting sun spilled down, illuminating the distorted space, as a graceful, curvaceous silhouette slowly appeared before everyone.

Medusa was dressed in a dignified purple brocade robe. Beneath the robe, her body was voluptuous and luscious, like a ripe peach, exuding a subtle enchantment. A cascade of three thousand strands of blue-black hair draped casually from her shoulders down to her slender waist. Below the robe, a section of a purple snake tail peeked out. The snake tail swayed gently, emanating a wild, seductive allure that inexplicably made one’s whole body grow hot.
