Hearing Watari Kagura's words, Luo Xiu was taken aback, feeling somewhat baffled.

"Sakura Girl, what kind of joke is this?"

"When did I become the God of the Holy Boi Religion?"

Great Qian of Tai Ah laughed heartily. "Sakura Girl, I'd believe you if you said Luo Xiu is your dad, but saying he's some Holy Boi Religion God? Are you fucking kidding me?"

Watari Kagura, expressionless, spoke slowly. "Before coming to find you, I paid the price of damaging my Divine Soul and performed a divination of the future using a divine blood sacrifice..."

Luo Xiu's expression turned grim as he stared at her. "And then what?"

Watari Kagura met Luo Xiu's gaze. "You are the center of that storm."

"Back in the day, the six emperors of the Primordial Ancient, Archaic Ancient, Ediacaran, Cambrian, Devonian, and Cretaceous eras captured each era, forcing them into the cracks of space-time. They used the blood sacrifice of every living being from those eras as the price to ultimately create you."

She looked around and continued slowly, "The wasteland we currently inhabit, the Tomb of Civilization, is the graveyard of those eras. And you were born here.

"They called this the God Creation Project. They wanted to create a god, one they could control, and use it to achieve some ambitious goal. However, this god's Divine Soul was incomplete. It still required the blood sacrifice of the beings from the final era to be whole. This so-called Catastrophe of Luodi is their plan to sacrifice the New Era."

Hearing this, Luo Xiu frowned and asked, "The god you're talking about, is it Dream and Asura?"

Watari Kagura replied, "Only you can bear this god's Divine Soul. And only by destroying both Luo Xiu and Asura will it cease to exist."

As she finished speaking, she made a light grabbing motion with her jade-like hand. Great Qian of Tai Ah flew into her grasp, completely beyond his own control.

"By killing you and then destroying Dream and Asura, everything can finally end," she stated. "As for those insects outside, I will personally destroy them later."

Great Qian of Tai Ah suddenly cried out in alarm, "Young Master Luo, run! I can't control myself! This woman is far from simple!"

The moment his voice fell, Watari Kagura slashed toward Luo Xiu.

A rainbow-like blade light, carrying supreme Divine Power, tore through the air as if to annihilate everything in existence! That single strike made Luo Xiu feel a lethal threat.

CRACK!

The Void in front of Luo Xiu suddenly exploded with thunder. A spatial rift instantly appeared, narrowly transferring the blade light thousands of meters away.

After a brief silence, the entire Tomb of Civilization began to tremble.

The rainbow-colored blade light had ripped through the dark Void, carving a chasm tens of kilometers long into the earth.

Luo Xiu glanced over at it and swallowed hard. How terrifying. Since when could Sakura Girl…

"Be careful," Master Ping said suddenly. "This woman must now be the Evil Ancient God. Or rather, she has already merged with the Evil Ancient God. Luo Xiu, in this battle, you might die."

Hearing this, Luo Xiu's heart sank. He swiped his hand across his chest, and Dream and Asura materialized out of thin air. With Great Qian of Tai Ah now being forcibly wielded by Watari Kagura, Luo Xiu had no choice but to bring out Dream and Asura to contend with a Divine Artifact of that caliber.

Watari Kagura, her face a blank mask, advanced unhurriedly toward Luo Xiu, carrying Great Qian of Tai Ah in one hand and the Demonic Blade Muramasa in the other.

"This is how Divine Artifacts are meant to be used," she said. "As the Azure Emperor, you were once unbeatable, single-handedly battling the Three Thousand Worlds of the Upper Realm. But in front of me, you are nothing but dust, not even half my equal."

Luo Xiu stared at Watari Kagura as an aura of azure and black Spiritual Power began to radiate from his body. "In my view, a so-called god is just a person who has become powerful to a certain degree. The Ancient Gods were killed by mortals back then, so I believe you can be too."

Watari Kagura said no more. Her figure flashed, and she teleported behind Luo Xiu, her twin blades crossing as she slashed at his neck.

Luo Xiu knew he couldn't dodge. The woman's speed was simply too fast, so fast he had no time to even think. He unleashed his strongest technique, whipping his head around as a cold glint flashed in his left eye, instantly erupting with Divine Power!

Watari Kagura's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, not daring to be careless. A chilling light flickered in her right eye as she, too, unleashed a burst of Divine Power.

The two most powerful forces in the world collided, yet they made no sound. The silence was eerie and terrifying. The dreadful aura of the Divine Power was so intense it devoured sound itself.

"Luo Xiu, get away from there, quickly!"

Luo Xiu didn't hesitate and immediately shot far into the distance. In truth, he didn't need Master Ping's reminder; he knew how terrifying the aura of Divine Power was. In his current state, his body couldn't withstand it. He would be annihilated, body and soul, in an instant.

However, Watari Kagura stood her ground, allowing the terrifying storm of Divine Power to buffet her body. She remained unmoved, as if she were merely basking in a spring breeze.

As a brief moment passed, the storm of Divine Power obliterated everything it touched, turning space itself into a pitch-black, deep, and bizarre sphere.

"Holy crap… a clash of Divine Power is this terrifying? It actually created a black hole." Luo Xiu's eyes widened as he watched the black sphere in the distance grow larger.

"What else did you expect?" Master Ping retorted. "Luo Xiu, you'd better be careful. This woman has the bloodline of an Ancient God in her veins, making her body almost half-divine. The Evil Ancient God has also merged with her, so she now possesses a Divine Soul as powerful as yours.

"A half-divine body, plus a complete Divine Soul… I can tell you, she's an enemy you simply cannot defeat! Even if you were restored to your peak, you couldn't win against her. This is the chasm between a mortal and a god."

Luo Xiu gazed at the distant Watari Kagura. "Must you praise her to high heaven and put me down?"

"I'm stating the objective facts!"

Luo Xiu suddenly asked, "Then who was it that defeated the Ancient Gods back then?"

Master Ping paused for a moment before replying, "That's difficult for me to explain. All I can say is that humans can defeat gods, but it is incredibly hard."

"I've come this far without a single loss," Luo Xiu stated.

"Draw your sword," Master Ping urged. "Otherwise, you won't stand a chance. She could have killed you just now. The only reason she held back was to force you to draw your sword. Because, as she said herself, she wants to destroy not just you, the Sword Master, but the sword itself."

Luo Xiu took a deep breath. He was out of options, but he still didn't want to draw his sword.

"The last time I drew my sword, in the Divine Organ Ground, I shouldn't have been able to come back. It was thanks to Ji Gu that I'm still alive today. I can't draw it again so lightly. If I draw my sword here, what happens next? Who will be left to end the Catastrophe of Luodi?"

"But if you don't draw it, what can you possibly do against such a formidable enemy?" Master Ping demanded urgently.

Luo Xiu's eyelids drooped. "When I used my Divine Power earlier, I could clearly sense her wariness. That confirms my Divine Power can injure her."

"So?"

"So if I can just find an opening, I can use my Divine Power to defeat her."

At this thought, Luo Xiu gritted his teeth and activated the Blood Burning Technique. But there's probably only one chance, so I have to seize it.
