Chapter 70 - 70 Mutual Destruction, Looting amidst the Fire



Tens of thousands of Fish People, along with the Naga, advanced powerfully into Blackwater Swamp. Their mammoth troops stretched over twenty kilometers wide, sweeping across the land. A Frogman Tribe that had just moved near the corner of Blackwater River, numbering less than a thousand, was directly overwhelmed by the tide of Fish People.

The army continued its murderous path into the heart of Blackwater Swamp. Upon encountering Ze Crossing Ze, any Other Races or predators were drowned in a sea of Fish People. Even the brutal swamp crocodiles, which liked to snack on Fish People, could only flee in panic when faced with such a massive number.

The innermost parts of Blackwater Swamp are exceedingly complex, riddled with muddy black water, unnamed plants, and insects. Hidden within the rotting black waters are various poisonous creatures, leeches, and even terrifying parasites like Iron Wire Worms.

Normally, the scant numbers of Frog People and Snake People wouldn’t dare venture here, not to mention the Fish People. But now, with enough companions gathered, the Fish People’s courage had ballooned to an extreme. It was estimated that some Fish People, their brains probably fried, would even dare to charge at a Dragon now.

After traversing thirty to forty kilometers of dangerous swamp, the army arrived at another part of Blackwater Swamp and discovered a tribe where Snake People and Frog People lived together.

Snake People took the lead, and Frog People served as slaves.

In Blackwater Swamp, with the backing of the Snake People Demigod, Snake People have always been the apex species in the swamp, enslaving all others, including the Fish People who were the lowest tier.

A Snake Person, clad wholly in blue-black, saw Fish People emerging from behind a long mud embankment and mistook them for food. Excitedly, he directed several slave Frog People to encircle them from both sides. However, as rows of Fish People clambered over the embankment, they froze in their movements and quickly turned to flee.

The Fish People did not pursue but continued to advance at the same Speed as before.

About a kilometer ahead lay a massive tribe where Snake People and Frog People coexisted.

The army made no attempt to hide its approach. Alarms rang out within the mixed tribe, and a large number of armed Snake People and Frog People awaited at the entrance.

However, as the main force advanced and more and more Fish People appeared, including vast numbers from both sides of the tribe, the morale of the Snake People began to drop.

Ten minutes later, the enormous tribe was engulfed by a sea of Fish People, surrounded by the tens of thousands of Fish People.

A Black Scale Naga, who was significantly larger than his peers, perched on a rotting tree stump with a several-meter-long Bone Fork. Level 4 Black Scale Naga Shark Hunters were about three meters tall and their tails could reach up to six meters. Yet this Naga was far taller than his peers, standing close to three and a half meters, with a tail that stretched beyond seven meters.

Lin Xiao had been paying attention to this exceptionally strong Clan member before his Saint Avatar fell. Before the fall of his Saint Avatar, this Supreme Naga was second in command to the Naga, only to Lin Xiao’s Saint Avatar.

Now that the Saint Avatar had fallen, this Supreme Naga naturally became the Naga Leader and also the Leader of the tens of thousands in the Fish People’s Army.

A few equally fierce-looking Naga surrounded him, gazing distantly at the battlefield. They did not engage in battle but were merely overseeing it.

Suddenly, while observing the battle, the Supreme Naga looked up. A streak of gold, trailing a long tail of blood, streaked across the Vault of Heaven. A suffocating divine presence blanketed the entire area, plunging the vast battlefield into chaos.

But the Snake People, sensing the presence of their god, the Serpent god, received a surge in morale and took advantage of the Fish People’s fear to launch a counterattack.

The Supreme Naga quickly recovered from the shock, scoffed, and lifting his Bone Fork, he bellowed loudly:

“The Naga and the Fishman god are watching us, kill them all!”

The bellowing roar was profound and forceful, reawakening the fearful subordinates. Coupled with the swift passing of the Snake People Demigod’s presence, the courage the Fishmen had lost quickly returned, and they continued their attack on the Snake people.

At this moment, the condition of the Snake People Demigod was dire. He could certainly see His Clan being besieged, but He was utterly unable to lend a hand. He needed to immediately return to His safe den in the Central Blackwater Swamp to quell the violent poison erupting within His body.

Just as Lin Xiao had predicted, burning through three points of Divinity in one go to annihilate the Avatar of the Sea God left the Snake People Demigod unprecedentedly weak. He had to rapidly suppress the deadly poison within Him and expend Divine Power to restore the expended Divinity. If He delayed and the burned Divinity could not be recovered, the remaining Divinity would be insufficient to sustain two Godhoods. He would be forced to relinquish one, an outcome He could not accept.

Yet, He also couldn’t neglect His believers. Otherwise, should all His followers be killed and the source of Faith value lost, the outcome would be equally unbearable.

Thus, upon returning to a peak in the middle of the Black Water Swamp that was situated within the marsh itself, He immediately issued a Divine-mandate concerning all the inhabitants of the Black Water Swamp:

“The ultimate holy war is about to come, children, gather at the Holy Mountain and eradicate the heretics!”

In that instant, the entire Black Water Swamp was boiling with fervor.

Whether it was the Snake people, Frogman Tribe, or other Races worshiping the Snake People Demigod scattered throughout the swamp, especially in a vast mud pit situated deep within the marsh.

This mud pit stretched for several kilometers, containing no water but only black sludge formed from a mixture of silt and water. Occasionally, one could see swamp vegetation caked with black mud. The immense mud pit was unnaturally silent, devoid of any living creatures as far as the eye could see.

As the Divine-mandate of the Snake People Demigod was delivered, the tranquil heart of the mud pit suddenly heaved, forming a small hill, which then exploded with force, and out burrowed a creature… akin to a small mountain itself, covered in welts—a Giant Clam that puffed up its cheeks, opening its mouth to emit a cry like thunder. A ring of transparent shock waves burst forth with the croak, blowing the thick layers of mud outward.

This was a Super Giant Frog, about twenty meters tall, with a dark brown body covered in bumps like a toad, but unlike the toad’s poisonous glands, it had an outer layer as hard as a hammer’s head.

Emerging from its hiding place within the mud pit, the creature’s describably thick legs pushed powerfully against the soil, and with a violent leap, it soared hundreds of meters into the air, plummeting down like a Meteorite.

“Boom!”

Accompanied by a tumultuous shaking of the earth, mud and water were flung hundreds of meters into the air.

Over a hundred kilometers away, the Fish People’s Army’s siege on the Snake Tribe had entered its final stage. Completely overwhelming in numbers, escape became impossible. Without exceptions, they were all slain.

The Supreme Naga, with his followers, arrived in front of the destroyed tribal altar, arranged the Naga God Statue properly, and the numerous Clan members began to pray, offering up the Faith value to the statue.

As a large tribe where the Snake people and Naga cohabited, the level of devotion to the Snake People Demigod among the Snake people and Frog People was exceptionally high. Even though the Snake People Demigod often extracted Faith value, the residue remaining on the statue was still considerable—amounting to over seven million. However, passing it through the process of sacrifice to the Divine Realm resulted in a loss of more than half, leaving Lin Xiao with just over three and a half million Faith value.

There indeed was a significant difference between direct harvesting and sacrificing.

Adding to the previous gains, Lin Xiao now had a total of twenty-nine million extra Faith value—none of which he could Refine on his own..
