Chapter 348 - Tit For Tat

A white and holy light came from the Light Goddess's body before rushing out. However, the light did not target anyone from each side but went straight to the ground where the dead gods and cultivators lay.

Immediately afterward, something shocking occurred. All the dead soldiers began to rise up from the ground. No matter how bad their injuries were, they would stand up, take a weapon and line up like an army.

Plus, it was not just the dead gods that rose up but even the dead cultivators from each of the legions.

"Zombies? Death Law?" Muttered Yan Liling. However, she shook her head after a quick observation.

The Life Goddess was still using life law and a very advanced form of it. Life and death are intertwined like Yin and Yang. So, the extreme of life is Death, and the extreme of Death is life.

For example, installing Life energy into somebody's body can properly heal them. However, if that energy is too much for them to handle or higher than their capacity, that person would instead die.

After seeing the Life Goddess application of the law, the group was momentarily surprised. They could see that If she was not restricted by this world, with her talent, she should have understood Life and Death Law, and maybe evolve it into Reincarnation.

After mentally sighing to himself, he began to observe these zombies. He could tell that the Life Goddess took their Remnant Soul after being broken to animate their bodies.

Additionally, she controlled the blood energy, and resentment of the battlefield to strengthen their bodies.

During the confrontation with the two legions, the Zombies Immediately had an advantage. Just like Tie Gang's army, they had no fear since they were incapable of such emotion.

Stabbing or chopping part of their bodies did not stop them from moving forward.

More importantly, their bodies were now more powerful than any magical weapons or armor.

It took the soldiers more effort and power to kill one zombie. As a veteran Commander, Li Jun could see that eventually, his men would be tired even if they won this battle; their stamina and origin essence was draining at much rapid rate.

'Should I begin the battle with the Supreme Gods? No, not yet. They have not been pushed to their limits yet.'

He then ordered both Legions to start using Spiritual Attack. Since all the soldiers were in the Supernatural Realm and had access to their souls, this was possible.

Immediately, positive results could be seen. The zombies only had Remnant Souls, not complete ones. As such, they were susceptible to Spiritual Attacks.

Many of them started to die at a rate visible to the naked eye. And these zombies did get back up afterward.

The soldiers were elated after seeing the result. Unfortunately, that elation did not last long.

Not long afterward, their new tactic ceased to be effective. They could feel a shield around the soul of these zombies. It was like they all suddenly had a Soul Protecting Treasure.

Although the soldiers were confused, Li Jun and the others immediately traced the source of this sudden change.

It was one of the 20 Supreme Gods, the God of Soul. He was a handsome young man with an extremely pale complexion, wearing a white robe. However, it seemed impossible to determine his clothes from his skin.

He had a vertical scar on his forehead that looked like a third eye.

The Soul God is the one that protected the zombies.

'What do we do now?' asked Tie Gang secretly through Divine Sense.

'How about you stall the Supreme Gods while we massacre their army?' suggested Wang Ju.

'Not yet,' replied Li Jun. 'Let's use the Calvary first to test out the hidden means of these people.'

A space vortex appeared not far from Li Jun and Tie Gang as they summoned something from their space ring.

Soon afterward, another army appeared on the battlefield and caught everyone's attention--and not just because of their number.

All the soldiers of this group stood on top of a gigantic eagle 40 meters long and a wingspan of about 120 meters.

The soldiers seemed to be glued on top of the eagle. To be precise, they seemed to be one and the same, bonded together Each of them had long spears in their hands.

These soldiers did not waste time after arriving. After receiving instructions, they rushed towards the Gods Army and started devastating them. The demonic eagles would tear apart anyone who stood on their way with their sharp claws.

They would then use their speed and aerial maneuverability advantage to escape being besieged. Additionally, the soldiers on top of their heads would also send powerful attacks.

Bodies began to fall on the ground at a rapid pace beyond the gods' expectations. Additionally, they saw another group that appeared on the ground. They seemed to be chanting some kind of mantra.

As they do so, the resentments of the fallen soldiers began to disappear. After their death, the soldiers were immediately led to Reincarnation. So, the divine ability of the Life Goddess no longer worked; they could no longer resupply their Zomby Army with new soldiers.

'What should we do now?' asked the Supreme Gods through Soul Communication.

'Do we want to fight them head-on?'

'No. Their leader seemed very powerful and can skip realms to fight; it's too dangerous.'

'That's right. The reason we started this fight in the first place was to use number advantage to wear him out. I did not expect that their army was so powerful.'

'There is no point of complaining or arguing,' said the Life Goddess. "War Goddess, it's time for you to use the same tactic during the War of Annihilation.'

'No problem," she replied. 'However, we should be prepared for the worse as we may have to fight head-on in the end.'

The War Goddess connected to her Heavenly Abode. A space tear appeared in front of her and the others.

Then, a bunch of tall individuals with blue and purple skin came out wearing golden armor and holding a variety of weapons. The shortest amount of them was ten meters tall, while the tallest was over 100 meters.

This was a Giant Army.

After seeing this, Li Jun frowned deeply as he try to remember some information. From what they know about this world, a very long time ago, before the age of the Gods, there was another race in this world: the Giant Race.

That race used to be the protagonist of this world as even the world used to be referred to as Giant Supremacy World.

Humans and demons were considered minorities, thus had little power. Despite the size of the giants, they were considered a peaceful race. They did not wantonly kill or mistreated the other races.

However, conflict soon erupted between the human race and the giant race simply because humans reproduced too fast. As time passed, they needed more resources to survive let alone strive.

Although the giants were peaceful by nature, it did not mean that they would allow another race to rule their world. So, the human race suffered a catastrophe as the majority of them were killed in a war.

Because of how far this world is to the Myriad Emperor World, the Origin System never actually reached this place. So, the cultivation of humans was basic and involved imitating the bodies of giants.

So, they had no chance of winning.

After that war, the giant race began to monitor the human race and laid out rules on the amount of their population. Everything seemed to be going well until the individual known as God-King came into this world.

He was very partial to humans and began to preach to them and spread the God Cultivation System. Although he did not do anything to the giant race, he also prevented them from harming the human race.

After the God-King left the world, humans were now a prosperous race under the protection of the Gods. A new war then began.

Unlike the previous ones, this one was a one-sided slaughter with the power of the Supreme Gods. Unfortunately, as the victors of this war, humans did not extend the same level of empathy towards the giant race and exterminated them.

The only remaining few thousand were collected by the War Goddess. Enslaved and trained as soldiers for her army.

After seeing the legion made of giants, Li Jun pondered whether he should show another one of his trump cards which were a legion armed with powerful origin boats.

These boats had powerful formations on them powered by many soldiers; their destructive ability was simply catastrophic in a war like this.

However, after thinking about it for a moment, he chose otherwise. The situation of the battlefield can change at any moment and he no longer wanted to play this game of tit for tat.

Since the Supreme Gods did not use their final trump cards yet, he would force them to do so. After all, they were not the only ones hiding their ability.

Although he was cautious, it did not mean that he was timid. So, Li Jun ordered the others too began to attack the army as he locked on to the Supreme Gods.
