Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God
Chapter 401: Leave None Alive

The Divine Kingdom Wars waged by Gu Nan had always been led by Shana and Lan Si.

Shana led members of the Raymond clan, while Lan Si led some of the Void Cutters in White Mist, as well as other Void Cutter Realm apostles.

It was the same this time, with the slight difference that Shana was accompanied by a small annoyance.

"Lady, aren't we going to Mountain River World? Why are we changing places again!?" Zhong Die followed Shana and exclaimed with a puff of anger.

Little Zhong Die possessed the origin blood and walked the player route. After two years of work, she’d already advanced to Tier 4.

She finally managed to leave secluded cultivation after much difficulty and was simply itching to test her newfound strength, but they had just arrived at Mountain River World when Shana informed them that they had to change the battlefield at the last minute.

"Target: Wrathful Buddha World. Depart.”

"This is My Lord’s order." Shana finally turned to Zhong Die after she finished instructing the apostles and subordinates. "His exact words were— ‘You have to learn to switch lanes.’"

……

Under the sword testing platform.

As one of the current focuses of the Myriad Heavens, Gu Nan's every move was watched. The conversation between him, Rending Mountain Venerable, and Monk Nuxin immediately spread through their surroundings.

No one capable of entering Star Ruler Realm was a fool. When Monk Nuxin was stopped by Gu Nan, he immediately realized the other party’s intentions.

With a slight change in his expression, he hurriedly sensed the situation in his own astral world, but the scene he saw nearly made him faint.

Wave after wave of troops were pouring into his Wrathful Buddha World, all coming from a strange astral world.

These troops were all bizarrely shaped, from heavily armored human legions to tentacled monsters with a single eye, floating in the air.

If Gu Nan knew what Monk Nuxin was thinking, he would’ve very kindly informed him— “That’s called an Evil Eye.”

Level 2 soldier type Evil Eye. Specializes primarily in long-range attacks, but neither would they suffer any penalties for engaging in close combat. Their attacks come with a large number of curse debuffs, so they were one of the most annoying troop types.

But Monk Nuxin wasn’t in the mood to slowly understand these things. Rage and anxiety practically surged through his heart, and he wanted to return to his astral world immediately.

While he did want to use Gu Nan as a stepping stone to fame, he actually wanted to force the other party to engage in guerrilla warfare against him as a way to show off his strength… not like this!

If he could only watch as Gu Nan destroyed his astral world without being able to do anything to stop it, then he’d no longer become famous—he’d become a laughingstock instead.

"Let go of me!" Monk Nuxin bellowed as his whole body glowed with a golden Buddhist light, just like a real wrathful Buddha.

If not for the fact that the monk was bald, Gu Nan even suspected that he’d become a Super Saiyan if he just put some blond hair on his head.

But this was completely meaningless to Gu Nan, whose hand was already pressing down on Monk Nuxin’s bald head. The far more sublime power of shadows poured out, completely suppressing all of the Buddhist glow in the blink of an eye.

Monk Nuxin stared at this blankly, as if he could scarcely believe that Gu Nan, who’d always fought using his physical body alone, actually had such high attainment in law manipulation as well.

“His astral world isn’t far from reaching Realm Level." Xue Ren cast one more glance at Gu Nan and recalled Zi Luo Elder’s “too fast” remark, agreeing with it even more.

In what might as well be the blink of an eye, he watched Gu Nan go from a normal Star Ruler and walk to the point where he could already touch the edge of Realm Level.

The smile on Gu Nan's face remained unchanged. He was already Tier 7, so of course it wasn’t a problem to suppress Monk Nuxin, who was at most Tier 6.

The effect of suppression from a higher level was very obvious when using laws to counter the enemy’s laws, which was also why Gu Nan generally only used his physical body against higher-leveled enemies previously.

After Monk Nuxin was caught by Gu Nan, the group of spectating Star Rulers naturally paid attention to his astral world. Moreover, a major movement like the invasion of a plane couldn’t be hidden from them.

Extreme Sword Heaven was one of the main worlds, while Wrathful Buddha World was just a small astral world, so time flowed much faster in that small world than here.

So by the time the Star Rulers started paying attention to that side, Wrathful Buddha World had already become a wreck, and there were troops from Gu Nan’s Divine Kingdom everywhere.

"This is…”

"It's Gu Nan's astral world!"

"He actually dared to reveal his astral world. He’s got guts."

"Daoist Monarch Wu Tian can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

Unlike Monk Nuxin, the spectating Star Rulers didn’t care just how much damage had been done to Wrathful Buddha World. They were more concerned about the place these troops came from.

This time, the number of divine servants Gu Nan deployed far exceeded those small-scale wars in the past two years.

So the army couldn’t simply descend all at once. Troops were still falling in a steady stream, so it was easy to discover their source—the Divine Kingdom.

At this moment, countless people silently memorized the coordinates to Gu Nan’s Divine Kingdom.

One should know that just yesterday, merely the words "Gu Nan's astral world" would’ve been information worth a thousand pounds of gold. Many great Star Rulers would be willing to pay for it.

But now, this information was openly revealed.

Daoist Monarch Wu Tian was one of the few Star Rulers who didn’t attend the sword testing ceremony in Extreme Sword Heaven, but he was still paying attention to any news from that side.

Originally, he was absentmindedly paying attention, but he didn't expect to accidentally learn the location of Gu Nan's astral world, which almost made him jump for joy.

"Good! Gu Nan, you rascal, let’s see if you still dare to come to Daoist Sect Realm to wreak havoc in the future!" Daoist Monarch Wu Tian clapped fiercely.

If Gu Nan still dared to go to other people’s homes and engage in guerrilla warfare even after his own astral world’s location was exposed, then others could do the same to him and wreak havoc inside his Divine Kingdom.

More importantly, Gu Nan offended too many people. In all likelihood, he wouldn’t even need to go looking for anyone's trouble, and someone would soon come to his door to find trouble.

From the moment Gu Nan's astral world was exposed, various thoughts raced through all the Star Rulers’ heads as they thoroughly analyzed the implications of this matter.

‘I’m afraid it’ll be eventful in the Myriad Heavens from now on…’ Too many people simultaneously shared the same thought.

While everyone else was pondering what kind of changes the exposure of Gu Nan’s astral world would cause, only Monk Nuxin wanted to cry but had no tears.

He didn’t care where Gu Nan’s astral world was, nor did he have the ability to go there and cause trouble. All he knew was that his own astral world’s inhabitants were wantonly slaughtered in the blink of an eye!

Temple after temple collapsed, statues of Buddhas were smashed one by one, and countless monks in Wrathful Buddha World died at the hands of the divine servants.

The Dark Knights’ iron hooves of oppression left the land barren, the Patchwork Monsters nibbled clean all living beings in sight, the Evil Eyes’ Curse Ray cursed all enemies, while the Heavy Artillery Unit could take down a city with three volleys of gunfire…

These divine servants carried out the order of “leave none alive” to the letter, not even leaving a dog alive for Monk Nuxin. They passed through the land like locusts, leaving no breathing beings in their wake.

Thousands of years of painstaking work ruined in a few moments!

Now Monk Nuxin really did have a “furious heart[1].” The rage in his heart couldn’t even be described with words. He began to crazily mobilize the power of his astral world to strengthen himself without regard to anything else.

‘Even if I have to use up all my power, I must still snatch the slightest chance of survival from this powerful enemy’s hands!’

‘As long as I can return to my astral world, everything will—’

Bam!

Gu Nan's fist smashed into his stomach, and the astral world’s power that Monk Nuxin just mobilized was shattered in the blink of an eye.
