Chapter 531: A New Deity

While the sura were coming up with plans to deal with the Yeluo poison, Zhang Lie had given up on the map left behind by the monarch of stars. He had decided to explore the realm by himself instead, based on the information he recalled from his past life.

In the end, after half a month, he found... absolutely nothing.

Zhang Lie's memories of disaster-grade lifeforms in the second realm were incomplete and rather haphazard; he had been far from being able to challenge such lifeforms so early in his past life.

He simply had too little information. As yet, information about disaster-grade lifeforms hadn't been publicized in the second realm, and no hunters would have the ability to take one down even if they had known about it.

Furthermore, these lifeforms often made their habitats deep in dangerous areas for hunters, which were naturally unexplored as a result. Without detailed information, it would be difficult to find their lair and hunting grounds, and waiting for these lifeforms to appear naturally would take far too much time and energy.

In the end, Zhang Lie had no choice but to pull out the monarch of stars' map and set off for his next destination anew.

According to the map, there was one such lifeform in Mt. Mulan.

Along the way, Zhang Lie encountered his fair share of alien races. Instead of interacting with them, however, he simply stealthed and headed straight for the mountain.

Unfortunately, once again, he found nothing but a peak-grade lifeform waiting for him.

If nothing else, it did look very cool. Its body glowed with golden light, making it seem almost saintly. It looked lupine but actually wasn't. When Zhang Lie headed toward its lair, he found it lying at the top of the mountain, sleeping on a gigantic rock.

Zhang Lie was about to leave when the lifeform suddenly attacked him, and Zhang Lie immediately counterattacked.

With his strength, the outcome of the fight was obvious. However, what came next was the problem.

This lifeform turned out to be the guardian deity of an alien race that lived nearby. After Zhang Lie killed it, a group of aliens charged toward him in a frenzy.

Zhang Lie was very much alarmed; he hadn't expected that there would be aliens that treated a peak-grade lifeform like a guardian deity. He tried to explain himself, but the aliens refused to listen. They insisted on tying him down and sacrificing him on an altar in the mountains.

Zhang Lie had no choice but to bring them to their senses with his trusty fists...

"Deity, our new guardian deity, please, protect us all!"

An hour later, Zhang Lie found himself seated on a gigantic golden throne, a group of aliens prostrating themselves by his feet.

They had found him almost right after he had killed the lifeform in battle. Apparently, they were here to bring it a few offerings, but they had witnessed its last moments instead.

Zhang Lie and the group of aliens stared at each other for quite some time before the priest of their group shouted, "This is an evil demon, a heavenly tribulation!"

"The demon dared to kill our guardian deity!"

"Demon! Today is the day you perish!"

The aliens' eyes all turned red, as though they had suddenly become feral wolves.

Because they were bringing their guardian deity offerings and praying to him, the group of aliens was rather diverse. Young and old, males and females alike had made their way up the mountain to pay respects to their guardian deity.

Zhang Lie frowned. "Surely you're not talking about that lupine lifeform up above?"

The priest rapped the ground with his cane. "That's our guardian deity, the manifestation of our faith! With him around, no one would dare attack our village."

Zhang Lie's eyebrows rose. He could understand worshiping a higher force, but not if that higher force was a genetic lifeform…

"Everyone, attack this evil demon! Only then will our tribe be safe for another day!" the priest urged.

Zhang Lie scratched his head. "Listen up—that wasn't a deity, just a genetic lifeform. And I'm not an evil demon, just a passerby."

However, the priest paid him no mind. He shouted, "Bind this demon, then prepare to sacrifice him atop the mountain! Only with the blood and lifeforce of the demon can we pacify the heavens' anger!"

Zhang Lie shook his head when he noticed the aliens charging toward him. As a kind, righteous man, he naturally had to correct these aliens' mode of thinking.

.

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Quake]!" His fists sent a tremor down the mountain as the nearest aliens were sent flying. Zhang Lie controlled his strength very well; the aliens were only injured, not dead.

His face turned cold. "This is a warning. Don't come closer, or I won't hold back."

The priest slammed his cane on the ground. "Damned devil! How could you hurt our kind—everyone, we can't submit to the devil! This is a trial from the heavens!"

The aliens brushed themselves off and rushed toward Zhang Lie once more.

"I warned you." Zhang Lie struck with a fist—and this time, he didn't hold back.

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar]!" Waves of energy, so intense they warped space, radiated from his arm. As the ripples of energy spread from Zhang Lie, the aliens at the front of the pack fell limply to the ground, their blood draining into the rocks of the mountain.

The priest stood stupefied, as did the other aliens fortunate enough to not be standing at the front.

"Evil demon, how dare you slaughter my kind! I shall be your opponent!" One of the aliens leaped up into the air and fell down like a meteor.

When the other aliens saw him move forward, their eyes lit up once more with hope.

"Look! That's the strongest warrior of our clan!"

"With him around, I'm sure the demon will fall in no time!"

"Warrior, slaughter that evil demon!"

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Fade]!" One errant fist from Zhang Lie was all it took to crush the top warrior of the alien race.

The excited aliens choked on their yells as their best warrior died in front of them.

He wasn't that weak—he seemed to have been on the verge of reaching the level of a sura king. Compared to Zhang Lie, however, that level of strength was meaningless.

Zhang Lie asked again, "Do you still want to fight?"

The aliens were so shocked that their legs began to tremble, and they fell to the ground in a kneeling position.

Even the priest dropped his cane. His face beatific, he announced, "Our old deity has fallen, and a new one arises in his place!"

The aliens all knelt on the ground.

Zhang Lie: ? ? ?

The priest continued, "We were mistaken. Our guardian deity has simply shed his old form and metamorphosed into a new one! Ah, our deity!"

The aliens lay prostrate on the ground as they venerated Zhang Lie, whose eyes were bulging.

What on earth were they doing? Zhang Lie knew that there were all manner of alien races in the second realm, each with its own customs, but he had never seen one that praised their opponents as deities if they couldn't beat them...
