Chapter 404 The Grand Gathering of the Sons of the True Gods! Was Xia Fa also invited?
"Get out of the way! I miscalculated!"
The frail-looking [Overpressure Collapse] let out a loud shout, and his already pale face looked even paler.
The reason is simple: He really didn't want to harm the innocent. Moreover, the opponent was a god. At a time when the superhumans and the cleaners were at war, a god might be able to save countless lives at a critical moment!
Unfortunately, he miscalculated. He thought his all-out attack would surpass the rebound limit of [Eternal Rebound] of [Infinite Assault], thus securing victory. But to his surprise, he was still rebounded!
Seeing that he was about to uncontrollably rush towards the god, and that his fist had compressed the endless space in front of him into a "bubble" that was about to collapse under the immense pressure, [Overpressure Collapse] flashed a resolute look in his eyes and chose an extremely risky method.
He actually began to forcibly restrain his own power, even at the cost of using the power of the Heavenly Venerable and the power of life to offset it, determined to reduce the power of this punch as much as possible, preferably to only one-tenth of it.
At the same time, beneath him, [Infinite Assault] flashed and charged toward the god at an even faster speed.
Clearly, [Infinite Assault] also wanted to preserve this unfamiliar follower, and did not want to lose any living combatant in an era of all-out war with the Cleaners.
With their combined efforts—that is, [Overpressure Collapse] consolidating its power and [Infinite Assault] flying over to provide ultimate protection—it would have been possible to save that god.
But it was all too late.
[Overpressure Collapse] This punch was too fast and too powerful. If it hadn't been in the "City of Gold Convergence" created by the gods, but somewhere else, half of the star field would probably have been shattered!
Such power spreads extremely quickly, and even if it is reduced to only one-tenth of its original strength, [Infinite Assault] simply cannot catch up!
"Descendants!!!!"
Gilgamesh, his eyes bloodshot, desperately wanted to rush forward, but the Celestial Venerable's [Infinite Assault]...
Even He couldn't catch up, let alone Him who was only at the peak of Outer Godhood?
The other outer gods who came to watch the show either covered their faces, unable to bear the sight, or remained indifferent, secretly mocking the one who flew too close. Some were quite relieved that they were relatively far away.
Just now, when they witnessed the battle between the two Celestial Venerables, [Overpressure Collapse] and [Infinite Assault], from a distance, the Outer Gods all subconsciously kept their distance. Only that Divine Being, for some reason, kept getting closer and closer, as if he wanted to learn the techniques and details of the battle between the two Celestial Venerables.
Normally, this wouldn't be a big deal; there have been people who were fearless enough to do this before. But today's battle has unfortunately affected this god.
"That's interesting—"
At this moment, Xia Fa's heart remained as calm as ever, watching the [Overpressure Collapse] that had already pressed in front of him, and that uncontrollable punch.
Because of his great battle with the [Gods' Nemesis], his six god-level mutations have been redeveloped, reaching the second stage of the Chaos Throne at an extremely fast pace.
Of course, it's impossible to say that its speed is faster than that of a Celestial Venerable; it's only faster than that of an ordinary Quasi-Celestial Venerable.
However, in the current situation, one can certainly avoid it if one wants to.
Whether from the divine or the outer gods, there is no escaping it. But as a divine being, I possess speed that is considered fast even among quasi-celestial beings.
All these thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant. Just as Xia Fa was about to instantly enter the second stage of the Chaos Throne and dodge away, he suddenly let out a "Huh".
"Is this guy—reducing his power?"
Perhaps due to the divine mutation of "Lion of Turmoil and Conflict," he keenly sensed the change in the power of the son of the true god, [Overpressure Collapse], at close range. As a result, a daring and unconventional plan uncontrollably surfaced in Xia Fa's mind.
"By forcibly taking a punch from the Celestial Venerable, my Star Spirit Master's understanding progress should be at least halfway advanced, right?"
Seeing that there was no time to hesitate any longer, and driven by an intense desire to become stronger, he immediately decided to take action!
With a shout, Xia Fa shuddered, and in an instant, phantom images of lions, elephants, and divine birds appeared all over his body. He was then enveloped by chaotic lightning, which was filled with silvery-white mist and starlight.
Then, with incredible speed, he instantly assumed a fighting stance, raised his hands, opened them, and his palms were instantly covered with an extremely viscous and heavy dark gold color.
In that instant, the phantoms of the Lion of Turmoil and the Immortal Creation Giant roared and howled behind him, their power seemingly capable of shattering the universe. Countless glass spheres shattered around him, and Xia Fa's palms flashed with golden light, from which a supreme and unparalleled aura emanated.
With a "hum," a semi-transparent giant shield materialized in his palm, with mysterious and ancient patterns spreading across its surface. Then, the entire shield was enveloped in a rich golden light.
The critical strike chance of the Divine Battle Tactic: Sighing Barrier has been enhanced twice!
At that very moment, the fist of [Overpressure Collapse], accompanied by its incredulously wide-open eyes, slammed into the giant shield.
boom-!!!!!!
A terrifying elliptical wave erupted at the point where the fist and shield met, instantly spreading diagonally to the horizon and the ground.
The boxing ring was instantly shattered, and the ground was covered with marks as if it had been lashed by an enormous whip. As for the sky, a ritual defensive array covering the entire city appeared, flashing for a moment before absorbing the shockwave that was powerful enough to destroy everything.
Xia Fa was jolted back by the immense force, staggering a great distance. A metallic taste rose in his throat—blood he had never tasted even when facing the [Gods' Nemesis]—but he forcibly suppressed it and swallowed it down.
This is the blood of a god. If it were accidentally spilled into the real world, it could even give birth to a divine fruit, which is already a treasure. He couldn't bear to spit it out.
Not to mention, he is not an ordinary god; his godly blood contains the power of six god-level mutations.
Suddenly, countless jet nozzles opened up behind him, spewing out a storm of rusty metal, like a fighter jet coming to a stop. Xia Fa's backward flight came to an abrupt halt.
While marveling at the terrifying strength of the Celestial Venerables, who had even reduced their power to one-tenth, he was still severely injured in his internal organs, he couldn't wait to examine the boundary between his mental body and his astral body.
But immediately, Xia Fa was overjoyed!
On the Star Spirit Law Master's overlord-level secret contract, the previously comprehensible progress of only over 20% has suddenly surged to over 60%!
In other words, I'm only 30% away from completing the process in one go, then I can sign the Primordial Stomach and try to become an Outer God!
In fact, for an ordinary god, it is necessary to fully understand all the secret agreements signed before attempting to accommodate and absorb the second kind of eternal certificate and challenge the status of the outer gods. This is the only way to minimize the risk of losing control.
Xiafa knew very well that because of the strange electric current at the spine and tail, he didn't need to, and was not afraid of, losing control due to rapid progress and vigorous advancement.
"We've made a fortune this time!"
With this in mind, Xia Fa finally withdrew from his spiritual intuition and returned his attention to the real world.
But immediately, he sensed that something was wrong.
It's so quiet, so very quiet all around.
What's going on?
Xia Fa turned his head and saw that the group of outer gods who had come to watch the show together, as well as his own ancestors, were all frozen in place, some speechless, some dumbfounded, and some like wooden chickens, all staring blankly at him.
Not only the Outer Gods, but even [Overpressure Collapse], the son of a true god, and [Infinite Assault], the commander of the Black Hole Watch Legion of the Absolute Church, seemed stunned, looking in their direction in disbelief.
After a brief silence, a cacophony of noise erupted!
"I—I didn't see that wrong, did I? He caught it? This young man, as a follower of the gods, actually caught the full force of the divine child's attack?"
"My God, my God, this is a miracle! A miracle!"
"A miracle? As gods, we can create miracles with ease, so the word 'miracle' is insufficient to describe this scene. This—is a magnificent moment worthy of being recorded in the annals of extraordinary history!"
"The third person with the potential to become the strongest true god has appeared!"
"No, it's the fourth one, isn't it? The third one is Lord [Absolute Attack]!"
"Are you guys stupid? How could two such peerless geniuses appear in such a short time? This is [Absolute Attack]! My cousin described it to me; this is [Absolute Attack]'s transformed form!"
"He is Lord Absolute Attack? Lord, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes—"
The Outer Gods were utterly astonished, and Gilgamesh also breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling that his vest inside his golden armor was soaked with sweat.
Fortunately, He is an Outer God. With a thought, the sweat was reabsorbed into the pores, and the back felt refreshed again.
Gilgamesh was about to fly over to check on his descendants when he suddenly stopped.
Because the two Celestial Venerables, [Overpressure Collapse] and [Infinite Assault], had already flown towards Xiafa first.
The [Overpressure Collapse], who looked like a thin college student, rushed to Xia Fa's side at this moment, staring at him from head to toe as if he had seen a rare treasure: "You, you're alright?"
Xia Fa remained calm, exiting the second stage of the Chaos Throne state and reverting to his tall and handsome appearance. He smiled slightly and said, "Well, I caught it by luck."
[Overpressure Collapse] Originally, I wanted to immediately ask this young man about his background and name, but then I remembered the discussion I had overheard from the Outer Gods, and I couldn't help but ask in even greater surprise, "You're not going to tell me that you are [Absolute Attack], are you?"
Xia Fa smiled. "It's me. I heard you've been looking for me everywhere?"
[Overpressure Collapse] hurriedly retorted, "If I had really known you were this powerful, I wouldn't have dared to spread the word about causing you trouble. By the way, brother—"
He suddenly leaned closer and whispered mysteriously, "You wouldn't happen to be my father's illegitimate son, would you?"
What on earth is all this?!
Xia Fa felt a bit amused and exasperated. After all, compared to being an illegitimate child, if he really shared the same origin as [Absolute Defense] and [Paradox Joker], then he was more like a biological brother.
In other words, according to seniority, he was actually the uncle of the person in front of him who was in "Overpressure Collapse"?
Of course, the idea that they share a common origin is just speculation and shouldn't be taken seriously at this time.
"I'm just an ordinary person," Xia Fa said, his gaze suddenly glancing to the left before returning to it. "Actually, if you hadn't reduced the power of that punch to one-tenth, I wouldn't have been able to block it either."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a loud, hearty laugh, though aged, rang out.
"Hahahaha, that's different. After all, young man, you're just a junior god. Even if a Celestial Venerable reduces their full power to one-tenth, it's still something a junior god can't withstand. Even an ordinary Quasi-Celestial Venerable can't withstand it!"
Then, the old man who looked like a knight commander, [Infinite Assault], flew over and grabbed Xia Fa's hand, continuing enthusiastically, "Young man, have you ever considered joining our Black Hole Watch Legion? With your potential, tsk tsk, you could become a vice legion commander right away. Once you become an Outer God, I should hand over my legion commander position to you!"
[Overpressure Collapse] At this moment, he said with a speechless expression, "Didn't we agree that I would be the commander of the Black Hole Watch Legion?"
But immediately, Xiu's expression changed, and she looked at Xia Fa with enthusiasm: "However, brother, if you're willing to join, once you become an Outer God, you can be the legion commander. I'll fully support you, hahaha!"
[Infinite Assault] glanced at him, "You lost to me again, and almost caused a disaster. You should just stick to being your deputy legion commander." Then he turned to Xia Fa, "How about it, young man, consider it?"
"Excuse me, gentlemen, I've been a member of the Silver Church for a long time," Xia Fa said with a laugh.
"This—" [Infinite Assault] sighed, "I should have guessed it sooner. A peerless genius like you, who possesses the potential of the strongest true god, couldn't possibly have no background whatsoever."
[Overpressure Collapse] didn't seem too disappointed. Instead, he put his arm around Xia Fa's shoulder, as if they were genuine friends: "Speaking of which, there's a gathering of the Sons of the True Gods tonight, brother, do you want to go? I'll be your introducer!"
A gathering of the sons of God?
Xia Fa suddenly became interested, after all, at such a gathering, he was sure to hear countless top-secret occult knowledge and all sorts of strange tales.
On the other hand, he was very concerned about the current situation on the front lines of the Protoss Natural Starfield, since it was the place where the superhumans and the Cleaners fought a great battle, but he was also troubled by the lack of good information channels. Now was the perfect time to go and listen.
"Okay, let's go take a look. But I still have a meal to eat first."
Xia Fa hadn't expected that the City of Gold Pounds, despite being located in the Protoss Realm, would also have day and night.
At eight o'clock in the evening, he flew out of an extremely luxurious Protoss warship, reeking of alcohol.
Not far ahead was one of the floating spheres in the heart of the city where gold and pounds converged, just like the ones we had seen before.
At that moment, the spherical gate was open, and one could vaguely see the elegant and noble hall inside, as well as men and women holding wine glasses. There were also two guards at the door, both of whom were gods.
"Looks like I'm late—"
Xia Fa muttered something and flew over directly.
Upon seeing this, the two guards were about to stop him, but suddenly one of them took out a photo, compared it with Xia Fa's, and his expression immediately turned serious. He then stepped aside.
Upon seeing this, the other guard bowed deeply, making a gesture of welcome, his expression extremely respectful.
Xia Fa originally thought that he would be harassed by the two guards because he was full of alcohol, until [Overpressure Collapse] was alerted and revealed his true identity, allowing him to slap the two guards in the face. However, he did not expect that [Overpressure Collapse] had given the guards photos in advance.
So, he flew into the hall very smoothly.
The men and women who were chatting and holding their wine glasses didn't pay much attention to his arrival. Only a few people turned their heads, glanced at him briefly, and then immediately turned back.
Xia Fa didn't care much and was just about to look for the location of [Overpressure Collapse] when he suddenly saw someone he had never expected.
