Chapter 399: Chapter 142: Higher-Level Deities

Immediately, he looked at the strange divine statue atop Medusa’s head.

”It seems that the bizarre divine statue is granting her the power of resurrection!”

Immediately, Xu Ran fell into thought.

”Such resurrection must come with conditions, but for now, I don’t know what those conditions are. I need to observe a few more times.”

Then, Xu Ran continued to command the Paperman Legion to kill Medusa.

Soon, the slain Medusa was resurrected by the statue again.

”No matter how many times you kill me, I can resurrect just as many times.”

”Give up, we are immortal!”

Once revived, Medusa immediately began taunting.

Tiger Girl and the others had never seen such a bizarre scene, looking towards Xu Ran, who was deep in thought.

Although visibly anxious, they never interrupted his contemplation.

After all, with the ability to resurrect at will and the Paperman Legion’s presence, their safety was in no jeopardy.

And so, while the Paperman Legion killed Medusa, Medusa resurrected, and Xu Ran observed.

Watching the perpetually resurrecting Medusa, Xu Ran fell into deep thought.

”This kind of power is quite strange!”

A power allowing a divine being to resurrect infinitely, even for someone as disciplined from childhood as Xu Ran, accustomed to libraries, was unheard of, not a single record existed.

Zhu Yuheng also watched the relentlessly resurrecting Medusa with great puzzlement: ”Never mind the bizarre resurrection of a divine being, just the divine being itself is very strange!”

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration sparked in Xu Ran’s mind as if he had grasped something: ”Yuheng, is this what you mean?”

Zhu Yuheng looked at Xu Ran: ”Divine beings cannot descend upon Blue Star, it’s an absolute rule, even the strongest from Exotic Star cannot change it, so why do divine beings appear among the two federations?”

Instantly, Xu Ran understood.

Immediately, his eyes shone with golden light, activating the Heavy Pupil Treasure Skill, seeing clearly inside the endlessly resurrecting divine being before him.

”As expected!” Xu Ran said with a wicked smile.

Tiger Girl, not understanding what had happened, asked, ”Big brother, what did you discover?”

Zhu Yuheng, Guan Xin, Ningshuang, and Tang Chichi lacked Xu Ran’s Pupil Skill and were equally curious, looking at Xu Ran.

Xu Ran looked at Tiger Girl and the others: ”This divine level creature is essentially a hollow shell. Within it are countless larvae. If I’m not mistaken, those larvae are their power source!”

Larvae?

Hearing Xu Ran’s words, the girls were instantly repulsed.

They imagined countless larvae wriggling inside the body of a divine level creature, filling the entire form.

Tiger Girl, suppressing her nausea, looked at Xu Ran: ”Big brother, if Medusa keeps resurrecting due to energy supply, finding the source would solve the problem, wouldn’t it?”

Xu Ran nodded, his golden eyes scanning the air. Soon, he noticed a very faint breath, continuously pouring into Medusa’s body.

Looking around, one could see strange statues concealed in the air. Without the Heavy Pupil Treasure Skill, Xu Ran wouldn’t have noticed them.

”I’ve found it!” Xu Ran said. ”The endless source actually comes from these strange statues.”

Then, Xu Ran waved his hand, unleashing a destructive beam of doom, precisely striking the resurrecting Medusa.

The Mo Blade lieutenant sliced Medusa into pieces, causing her to vanish into dust, making resurrection a laborious process.

Xu Ran’s gaze remained fixed on the air’s strange statues: ”Follow me and witness the enigmatic source!”

The others nodded, following Xu Ran into the sky.

Then, Xu Ran led them to a cloud-covered area. Clearing away the clouds, numerous strange statues appeared before their eyes.

Tiger Girl widened her eyes at the statues: ”There are so many statues here? I couldn’t sense a thing!”

”Hmm!”

”Me too!”

”This concealment method is terrifying!”

”Except for the captain, none of us noticed!”

Apart from Xu Ran, the others, all with Qi Blood Cultivation and Physical Cultivation reaching 1.2 million in the Yue Realm, could be considered among Huaxia’s few comparable Yue Realm experts.

Despite this, they had no clue about the countless strange statues hidden in the clouds.

Tiger Girl looked at the dense statues: ”Big brother, these statues seem to have no defensive capabilities!”

Xu Ran nodded: ”Aside from their high concealment, they truly possess no defensive capabilities!”

Tiger Girl took the lead: ”Then let me see what in these statues allows Medusa to resurrect infinitely!”

”Hmm!” Xu Ran nodded.

With him around, even if the statues contained unpredictable dangers, he could protect the squad members.

Moreover, since he didn’t notice any peculiar traits, Xu Ran decided to trust himself.

”Boom!”

”Boom!”

”Boom!”

The sound of eerie statues shattering echoed, as the statues were dismantled.

Immediately, an evil wish power surged, like larvae, resembling the bugs in foul water, densely covering the entire cloud layer, cascading down like a black waterfall.

Tiger Girl, Zhu Yuheng, and the others retreated behind Xu Ran, watching the scene with goosebumps.

”Xu Ran, is this the larvae-like force you mentioned inside Medusa?” Zhu Yuheng asked in disgust.

Xu Ran nodded.

Simultaneously, he sensed what these larvae-like evil forces were.

”The two federations truly reap what they sow!”

”Big brother, what’s happened?” Tiger Girl asked.

The others were equally curious why Xu Ran uttered such words.

Xu Ran looked at the pouring evil wish power: ”The moment the statue shattered, an evil force emerged. I can sense all of this power stems from human malice!”

”This twisted power is human malice?” everyone exclaimed.

”Not just human malice, but their deepest desires and wishes too!” Xu Ran explained.

”I feel that these absorbed malice include a significant portion of the recently deceased’s last wishes!”

”What wishes?” everyone asked in unison.

Xu Ran exhaled deeply: ”Their dying wish was to kill all Yue Realm experts of the two federations!”

”Because when the four divine level creatures ravaged the federation cities, they chose to escape on Noah’s Ark, abandoning them!”

Zhu Yuheng: ”Xu Ran, are all these people’s wishes to kill the Yue Realm experts who abandoned them?”

Xu Ran continued explaining: ”Not just that, but also the wishes they made before the divine statues.”

Upon hearing Xu Ran’s words, the others’ hearts skipped a beat.

After a moment, Tang Chichi asked: ”Captain, you mean the divine statues that have stood for thousands of years in the two federations?”

Tiger Girl: ”Really? Those are statues that have stood for thousands of years, how much evil power must that be!”

”Hmm!” Xu Ran nodded.

They were unsettled now.

After all, this was evil power accumulated by humanity over thousands of years, the kind that’s uncountable!

Particularly after the Exotic Star invasion.

”So that Medusa relies on such evilness to keep resurrecting?” Guan Xin asked.

Xu Ran nodded: ”No wonder they could break the rule preventing divine level beings from Exotic Star descending on Blue Star, it’s because of this!”

Zhu Yuheng nodded in agreement: ”Human malice, this should be considered local pollution of Blue Star. This divine level being, born from human malice, naturally wouldn’t violate Blue Star’s rules.”

After sensing the malice, Xu Ran frowned even more.

”Moreover, pollution generated by humans, being part of Blue Star, is more bizarre and troublesome compared to exotic pollution and can self-replenish.”

”As long as the statues exist, malice will be continuously absorbed.”

What difference does this have from a perpetual motion machine?

Xu Ran added: ”So, to completely kill a divine level, all statues must be destroyed!”

Everyone understood what Xu Ran was explaining.

”Big brother, from your description, creatures born from malice sound terrifying!”

Suddenly, Tiger Girl thought of something: ”Could this be a different higher-grade monster?”
