Chapter 40 The Departure of the Evil God
Chang Yuan's body was trembling; his instincts were struggling.
He was like that, as were his imperial guards and the artillery units of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
The first instinct of life is to survive, and the Ming Dynasty's Imperial Guards not only wanted to live, but were also extremely proud. Even when faced with a blood spirit that suddenly appeared, they would not bow their heads and wait for death.
Chang Yuan was the strongest among the Imperial Guards present, so he was the first to regain consciousness and had the strongest resistance to the soul-shaking shock.
His resistance attracted the attention of the Blood Spirit.
The evil god gathered up its inherent soul-shaking and divine power suppression, focusing it on Chang Yuan, wanting to completely crush him.
It's not that Blood Spirit doesn't want to kill people personally, but that He can't move right now.
For a monster to become a god is like being reborn; even the strongest evil god needs time to complete the life transformation process.
Before this, the Blood Spirit could only use His divine power.
Boundless divine power crashed down like a mountain collapsing and the sea pouring down. Chang Yuan felt as if he were a small boat in a storm, being swept along by the giant waves, tossed and turned involuntarily.
But he did not yield; instead, he fought back desperately.
The twenty-four exercises he had practiced these past few days had not been in vain. He was able to clearly feel his own existence even in the midst of the greatest chaos, using the power of his body as a weapon to fight against the storm that divine might was stirring up in his soul.
Blood Spirit didn't care at all. He let out a triumphant laugh: "Hehehehe, struggle, try your best. The moment you run out of strength will be the moment you completely lose the ability to resist."
"I will devour you all one by one, and use your flesh and blood to make up for the loss of this hasty divine descent."
Chang Yuan didn't know how the others were doing, but his own physical strength was indeed declining rapidly as he struggled, and his clothes, both inside and out, were soaked with sweat.
Just as his physical strength was about to run out, the spiritual heat hidden in his body surfaced, and in the blink of an eye, Chang Yuan was restored to his best condition.
Not only did his physical strength fully recover, but Chang Yuan even broke free from the divine power's oppressive influence on his soul.
Without the slightest hesitation or distraction, he raised his revolver the moment he regained control of his body and fired at the Blood Spirit Evil God dozens of meters away.
Although the term "precision" cannot pinpoint a god at this moment, and although the influence of divine power remains in his body, causing his fingers to react slowly and making it difficult to exert force.
But Chang Yuan still pulled the trigger with all his might.
boom!
The shot missed; the bullet went nowhere.
boom!
The shot missed again, but it struck the area next to the Divine Blood Spirit, creating a cloud of earth on the ground.
Fortunately, after the two shots, Chang Yuan regained his shooting touch, and his fingers became flexible again.
Even more fortunately, the entry "Accurate" finally locked onto the Divine General Blood Spirit.
At that moment, Chang Yuan felt as if the evil god had revealed his bottomless health bar.
Despite knowing that he was unlikely to kill the god this time, Chang Yuan's lips still curled up, and his emotions soared to the heavens.
Even an evil god is still a god, and this god has revealed his health bar!
Even if I can't kill Him this time, as long as I become stronger and seize a better opportunity, I will be able to accomplish the feat of killing a god one day!
Chang Yuan, full of fighting spirit, raised his hand, aimed, and then emptied the magazine in one go.
boom!boom!boom!boom!
All four shots hit Blood Spirit's left eye, sending sparks flying as they struck the cornea.
"ah--"
The evil god Blood Spirit cried out in pain.
His body was incredibly powerful, with an eye membrane thick and strong enough to withstand bullets.
However, the impact of a bullet cannot simply disappear. When the impact penetrates deep into the body, it affects the ongoing dramatic life processes, producing real, excruciating pain.
Blood Spirit even felt like she was about to die from the pain.
Unfortunately, the evolution of life was not yet complete, so He dared not make any big movements and could only tense His body to endure.
"Damn human, how dare you make God suffer! You are blaspheming!"
"Just wait. Once I've completed my transformation, I'll seize you and squeeze every drop of blood from your body. I'll drain you dry, bit by bit!"
Chang Yuan ignored the evil god's threats, firing with all his might, reloading, and firing again!
All the bullets struck the evil god's left eye, sending sparks flying and causing the evil god to roar repeatedly.
However, he also noticed that while the bullets from the revolver could hurt the evil god, they couldn't cause any real damage; at most, they would only scratch the cornea of his left eye.
Chang Yuan stopped firing.
Seeing Chang Yuan put away his pistol, the evil god Blood Spirit laughed maniacally again: "Hahaha, it's good that you gave up, giving up is the right thing to do!"
"How could a mere mortal possibly contend with a god?"
"Wait for me a moment, I'll be there soon. I'll be the first to grab you, drain your blood, devour your flesh, and I'll even find a way to take your bones with me and keep them in God's realm."
"Thank God!"
Chang Yuan completely ignored the evil god's roar. He tried his best to remain calm while looking around the battlefield, attempting to find a force that could break the deadlock.
Suddenly, his eyes widened as he looked at something he had ignored seven or eight times, and he laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Damn it, am I just blind to what's right under my nose?"
"Such a huge troll is right in front of me, and I'm just wandering around looking for him!"
Chang Yuan excitedly charged toward the giant cannon he had mentioned—the Frankish Divine Might General Cannon!
Thirty meters was covered in just five steps for him.
Chang Yuan pushed aside the gunner who was stunned by the divine power, and after a careful inspection, he found that it was already fully loaded.
"Very well, very well, serves the evil god right for this calamity!"
Based on the "precise" lock-on, Chang Yuan fine-tuned the angle of the cannon muzzle by feel, and then pulled the trigger rope of the cannon without hesitation.
The laughter of the evil god Blood Spirit suddenly caught in his throat. For the first time, he felt threatened by a mortal, at least by the body he had descended to, which was blessed by his own divinity, and was at risk of direct death.
Blood Spirit quickly sensed that the threat of death had become very real, right above his head!
To be precise, it felt like being pierced through by a wooden stick as thick as a human fist, with the Blood Spirit Servant's mouth at the center.
Even an evil god is still a god. Blood Spirit foresaw the danger and saw in the darkness that he would be blown to the head by a cannon, losing his divine servant body, as well as part of his divine soul and the uncertain future of his divinity.
Ordinary beings fear the consequences, while Bodhisattvas fear the causes!
This statement is incorrect. In fact, Bodhisattvas also fear the outcome. It's just that Bodhisattvas have great wisdom and can see the predetermined future result when the cause arises, so it seems like they are afraid of the cause itself.
Blood Spirit is a god, but a god is just a special form of life, and even He is afraid of death.
The moment Blood Spirit saw the possibility of being shot in the future, he knew he could no longer preserve his divinity and soul.
In the brief moment between the cannon trigger falling and striking the fire cap, Blood Spirit made his choice.
In order not to be implicated or harmed by death in the mortal world, He retreated without hesitation and severed ties with the blood spirit servant whom He had painstakingly cultivated.
He no longer wanted that bit of divine soul and divinity!
boom!
The cannon fired, and the shell instantly traveled nearly a hundred meters, hitting the Blood Spirit Servant on the head, directly in the left eye that Chang Yuan had been repeatedly scraping.
In an instant, his left eye shattered.
The snake's head bones were shattered, and almost all of its scales were peeled off and scattered.
"hiss--"
The severely injured Blood Spirit Servant was sent flying more than ten meters away. Then it let out a miserable scream and ran away in a disheveled but extremely fast manner.
