Chapter 146: Follow me to the world of lotuses and be purified

"The White Elephant Empire has been hyping up their Divine Child for so long, constantly claiming his power was a gift from the Deities.

But now look at him. He’s nothing special. In front of Chu He, he’s just a paper tiger!"

"How can you guys have the nerve to discuss this? As a citizen of the Great Jing Empire, I’m about to cry myself into a faint.

That Ji Shengyue is a total bitch. If that vile woman hadn’t interfered, how could our Great Jing Empire have lost an unbelievably powerful master like Chu He?!"

"HAHAHAHAHA! I can’t help but laugh whenever I see people from the Great Jing Empire. Having a stupid woman in power has really screwed you all over!"

"I have a question. Why is the Great Jing Empire’s ruler just called Ji Shengyue, while the Great Xia Empire’s Her Majesty the Queen’s real title is Queen Xingcan?"

"The reason is simple. The so-called Her Majesty the Queen of the Great Jing Empire was never acknowledged by the previous king.

Ji Shengyue seized the position by force. But Her Majesty the Queen of the Great Xia Empire was approved by the previous king, and her abilities are plain for all to see."

"So, look at how they handled the Chu He situation back then. The Great Jing Empire slandered him relentlessly,

even turning him into a public enemy in the Great Jing Empire.

But Her Majesty the Queen of the Great Xia Empire went against all opposition. She stubbornly relied on clues left behind decades ago

to find Chu He’s birth parents. Then, she brought Chu He to the Great Xia Empire and gave him the highest possible honors.

If it were you, could any of you have done something like that? So isn’t it obvious who is more capable and who is less so?!"

"And the people from the Great Jing Empire still have the nerve to pop up and play the victim.

Back when Chu He was being condemned by everyone, basically every one of you in the Great Jing Empire took part.

So it wasn’t just the Queen of the Great Jing Empire who forced Chu He out, but also all of you seemingly innocent commoners. If you want to be a fair-weather fan, you have to be prepared for a fair-weather fan’s fate."

"The person above is exactly right. These people from the Great Jing Empire are running to the international forums to play innocent. It’s pathetic."

Thanks to Chu He’s incomparably powerful performance,

the admiration and reverence for him among netizens reached an unprecedented height.

This was especially true for those who firmly believed that humanity should focus on the cultivation of Martial Arts.

They excitedly flooded the live stream’s bullet comments in support of Chu He.

...

「In the real world.」

The blinding holy light that had surged from Amir’s body had already dissipated.

He was sent flying, tumbling several times on the ground. Covered in dust and blood, he lay there, panting heavily.

The energy within him was in complete disarray, leaving him powerless to block any more of Chu He’s attacks.

Amir could now tell the difference. The real Chu He was the one holding the golden longsword.

The others were nearly identical to the real one, but there was only one sword.

’But what’s the use of telling them apart?’

’He knew he was completely finished today.’

’He had been utterly defeated—crushed at the hands of Chu He!’

’If Chu He wanted to, he could have killed him in an instant.’

At this moment, Amir didn’t even have time to feel indignant.

"Supreme God, save me!" Amir screamed hoarsely as he lay collapsed on the ground.

"Supreme God?"

Chu He’s finger had just touched Amir’s brow, intending to strip away his divinity.

But at that moment, the air froze. It felt as if time itself was trembling.

On the horizon, a sliver of terrifying energy, unlike anything seen before, appeared like lightning in the dead of night,

silently tearing through the tranquil sky with a heart-stopping might.

Immediately after, the sky was gently stirred by an invisible hand, and ten thousand lotuses were born from the void.

They didn’t drift down leisurely. Instead, in a manner that was both ferocious and elegant,

they poured down from the nine heavens, each petal carrying an ineffable sanctity and solemnity,

yet mingled with that purity was an indescribable strangeness.

These lotuses wove together densely, not only obscuring the sun,

but also shrouding the entire world in a deep and mysterious dreamscape.

The sea of lotuses churned ceaselessly. It was more than just a wonder of nature;

it was like the overture to some ancient ritual, slowly opening a gateway to another dimension.

Within this ocean woven from lotuses, a giant serpent silently emerged, its body unimaginably immense.

Each of its scales was like a meticulously carved work of art,

shimmering with a cold, mysterious luster under the light, inspiring both awe and wonder.

Atop the giant serpent, there was a kingly existence.

He wore magnificent yellow silk robes that swayed gently in the wind, looking like a god from ancient times,

and was wreathed in an aura that transcended the mortal world.

His skin was the dark blue of a deep-sea pearl, his face as round as a full moon, and his eyes were clear and bright.

Most peculiar of all, a small lotus miraculously grew from his navel,

emitting a faint, fluorescent glow, as if it were the most direct link between him and this world of lotuses.

As this mysterious king slowly opened his eyes, an indescribable pressure instantly filled the air,

causing all surrounding life to feel an unprecedented shock.

And the giant serpent, as if responding to some summons, suddenly writhed. In an instant, its massive body split into thousands of serpent heads.

Some roared to the heavens, while others hummed a low tune,

together weaving an ancient, drawn-out symphony that resounded through the clouds and shook the soul.

"Vishnu! It’s actually our White Elephant Empire’s Vishnu!"

At this moment, Amir felt as if he had been snatched from the jaws of death.

He had thought he was about to die at Chu He’s hands,

but he never imagined that Chu He would actually provoke the appearance of this deity who stood at the absolute pinnacle of the White Elephant Empire!

"This divinity... it isn’t just a few wisps like in the others. It’s seemingly endless, like a bottomless ocean or the vast cosmos," Chu He said in utter amazement.

"Come with me to the world of lotuses and be purified."

Vishnu, lying on the giant serpent, spoke leisurely, his voice carrying a bewitching Magic Power.

As Vishnu spoke, the sky full of lotuses instantly formed a tornado that swept straight toward Chu He.

"Grass Destruction Sword Technique!"

All the Chu He clones instantly returned to the main body.

At the same time, the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand began to dance.

In an instant, blades of grass as dense as a torrential downpour took shape,

surging upward to violently collide with the tide of lotuses that swarmed down from the sky.

The Martial Artists in the distance carrying cameras saw this and immediately grabbed their equipment, turned, and fled.

Just watching from afar,

they could already sense the terror of the clash between Chu He and the figure on the giant serpent.

The overflowing power alone was enough to obliterate them all!
