As it turned out, Garuda also walked the path of close quarter combat. His bloodline energy was gathered on the wings, which made him number one below master G.o.d in terms of speed. Although right then he only possessed his descedant’s body and his cultivation as well as physical body were at the level of a peak G.o.d, it was more than sufficient to deal with Ancient G.o.ddess Liu Qing.

Although her body had attained ancient G.o.d level in terms of strength, she should be unable to compete with Garuda in terms of speed. As long as he discovered even the slightest weakness in Liu Qing’s body with his speed, victory could be considered as his.

Garuda languidly stood up from his seat with his golden eyes focused on Ancient G.o.ddess Liu Qing standing atop the platform as if watching her prey. The five ancient G.o.ds had agreed with her demands and descended to the mortal world, but it was not because they were in love with her and wanted her for themselves.

Instead, they wanted to return to the divine palace with Ancient G.o.ddess Liu Qing and offer her as sacrifice to the yin son of heaven. As long as he liked her, the position of master G.o.d would be theirs.

It was the reason why they let everyone believe that the five of them had fallen in love with Ancient G.o.ddess Liu Qing at first sight and thus put forth such an unreasonable request. Only by using this reason could they prevent other G.o.ds from discovering that the five ancient G.o.ds had already pledged allegiance to the powers from beyond the heavens.

The internal strife was nothing new for the ancient G.o.ds of the Origin World. If the ancient G.o.ds of other regions discovered that Lanlou was collaborating with beyond the heavens, probably all of them would be dealt with straight away.

Garuda slowly stood up. His figure flashed and he appeared on the stage.

“If Ancient G.o.ddess Liu Qing admits defeat, then perhaps you can preserve your good looks,” Garuda said calmly with his eyes focused on Brunhilda.

The difference between his and Indra’s tone was that implied that it was only a trivial matter.

Brunhilda sensed the pa.s.sionate gaze and coldly snorted before saying, “When Indra stepped on the stage, he also said similar words, but in the end, he was thrown into the lotus pond. Sometimes you shouldn’t speak too much.”

Her words amused the Music Clan’s descendants sitting at the edge of the lotus pond, and they began to smile. Indra coldly looked at the stage and snorted.

“Then let’s begin. Time to get it done quickly,” Garuda expressionlessly said.

Just after saying that, his body erupted with formidable divine presence, and a pair of wings instantly spread out on his back. His feathers were extremely sharp and glittering. The next instant, Garuda’s figure changed into a blur rus.h.i.+ng toward Brunhilda.

Brunhilda’s expression was very normal. She stretched her limbs without paying much attention and extended her punch to attack the blur.

The punch collided with the blur with a loud noise.

Brunhilda retreated two steps, and a hint of disdain appeared in her eyes. Just a moment ago, none of them had used their divine techniques, but punches to attack each other. When competing on the strength of the physical body, Brunhilda’s body, which was at ancient G.o.d level, was a cut above. However, Garuda was not afraid of it, which showed just how formidable he was.

Garuda wasn’t using his own body in the compet.i.tion, but that of a G.o.d level descendant. His cultivation and physical body’s strength were both at G.o.d level. Only when he used the bloodline ability could he produce the same effect as when he was using his main body.

Relying on his speed and G.o.d level body, he almost drew a tie against an ancient G.o.d level body. He only came out at a slight disadvantage.

He was worthy of being called the most formidable among the five ancient G.o.ds.

Brunhilda thought about it, and based on the strength revealed by Garuda just then, he was quite likely to be on the same level as Asura. If Garuda’s main body was present, then perhaps she might not have won.

But for the compet.i.tion, Garuda was using his descendant G.o.d and only had some advantage in terms of bloodline ability. If Brunhilda, using her main body lost the battle, she wouldn’t have any face to return to the Land of Ice.

“Come again!” Brunhilda said in a lovely voice, and her body covered in muslin erupted with formidable power. It created cracks in the surrounding s.p.a.ce.

She turned into a blur and rushed toward Garuda.

Vigilance was clear on the face of Garuda flying through the air. His eyes were filled with intent to battle as he rushed forward.

The two blurs collided in the air. They hadn’t used divine power, but the surrounding s.p.a.ce was distorted and even cracks spread out.

“Woah, how formidable are their physical bodies!” Yaksha said with incredulity after drawing in a sharp breath.

Among the seven ancient G.o.ds, he had inherited the strength bloodline of master G.o.d and whole body’s divine power. But if he didn’t use his divine power, he couldn’t cause the s.p.a.ce to distort just by relying on the collision of his physical body against the target.

When he saw what was happening on the stage, he couldn’t help but become doubtful as to who exactly had inherited the strength bloodline of the master G.o.d.

“Sure enough, your guess was correct. If you had been there just now, I am afraid you wouldn’t have been any better off than Indra,” Vishnu said with a smile.

He wasn’t paying much attention to the battle on the stage. Garuda was certainly going to win. He had already observed three rounds, so if he still lost, he should rethink his whole life.

Afterimages constantly appeared in the sky and dissipated in a flash. More appeared then, and this loop continued endlessly.

Liu Bailing rushed to the twelve holy daughters at that moment and took the final seat. When she saw the afterimages on the stage, she blinked in confusion and suspiciously asked Holy Daughter Hu s.h.i.+ sitting beside her, “What’s the current situation??”

Holy Daughter Hu s.h.i.+, who had been watching enthusiastically, turned around and looked suspiciously at Liu Bailing. “Where were you until now?. Ancient G.o.ddess Brunhilda has already defeated three ancient G.o.ds, so only this Garuda remains.”

After saying that Holy Daughter Hu s.h.i.+ began to blink, suddenly feeling dizzy. She took a deep breath, but fear filled her heart. The two parties had agreed to use only G.o.d level cultivation during the compet.i.tion, but the power emitted by both of them had already surpa.s.sed the limits of G.o.d realm and touched upon the ancient G.o.d realm.

When Hu s.h.i.+, who was a G.o.d, glanced at the fight, she surprisingly felt dizzy. She was just spectating, yet her soul was still shaken. It was just too terrifying.

“Then doesn’t this mean that as long as she wins this round, Ancient G.o.ddess Brunhilda will win?” Liu Bailing said while s.h.i.+fting her eyes to the stage. She wondered just how marvelous a battle between ancient G.o.ds would be.

Holy Daughter Hu s.h.i.+ blocked Liu Bailing’s eyes with her hand and reminded her, “You are only an initial stage sage flux expert right now, so your soul might fly out while watching this battle. You mustn’t think of peeping recklessly, or you might lose your life.

After hearing that, Liu Bailing obediently closed her eyes. The other holy daughters also waved their hands, unleas.h.i.+ng divine techniques toward the spectator stand at the edge of lotus pond to block the gazes of the Music Clan’s descendants. From that moment onwards, those who didn’t possess G.o.d level cultivation didn’t have the qualifications to watch the battle.

On the compet.i.tion stage, Garuda stopped and vigilantly watched the afterimages covering the sky. His guard rose with each pa.s.sing second. With one exchange, he understood just how formidable was the strength of Ancient G.o.ddess Liu Qing. It was completely different from that of a newly advanced ancient G.o.d like they had thought. Instead, it resembled that of a veteran ancient G.o.d.

Regardless of whether it was close quarter combat or techniques, Garuda couldn’t obtain any advantage.
