My Celestial Ascension Chapter 997: God King Has Fallen

"Y-You... How dare you kill an ancient god... do you even realize what you’ve done?!" The Goddess of Light, who was still in Anna Grace’s grasp, shouted with an enraged voice.

"Hmm? Shouldn’t you be worried about yourself?" Anna Grace gave her a stern look and yanked her hand, causing the goddess to scream in pain.

"All of you are so foolish and blinded by your own arrogance that you still haven’t realized your situation... typical of a bunch of foolish mortals." Long Yuyan said, sighing softly as she shook her head.

"It must be quite surprising and amusing for you to see the arrogance of a foolish mortal. After all, it’s a completely different era, isn’t that right?" Fang Xiaoyan spoke, smiling softly as she crossed her arms.

"Indeed it is..." Long Yuyan nodded. "In fact, I’m so shocked that mortals without cultivation are declaring themselves gods... this is just too ridiculous."

The Goddess of Light and Justice, as well as all the gods who heard their conversation, immediately became puzzled.

The girl with a fiery aura and horns was speaking as if the woman with horns had lived for tens of thousands of years.

And they became even more puzzled by the term ’cultivation,’ which was completely foreign to them. Is this some kind of different path compared to a mage and a warrior?

’Why the hell is this horned woman referring to us as mortals? We’re gods who have ascended to godhood, shedding our mortal shells behind.’ The God of Earth thought, a puzzled look on his face.

The so-called gods have lived for more than a thousand years; no ordinary human is capable of living for a thousand years.

Even the strongest human in the world could only live for about 170 years at most. Even the strongest race—the Dragons—could only live for about 1,500 years at most.

And yet, the gods have lived for far longer than that. They are the peak of power in this world, having outlived every other species in existence.

The God of Earth couldn’t control his anger anymore, making the ground beneath him tremble as his rage continued to boil.

Taking a step forward, he stared at Long Yuyan with a furious look. He couldn’t tolerate such an insult toward his title.

"You talk as if you have lived for thousands of years. Even a dragon couldn’t live that long. Furthermore, you even dared to call us—the Gods of this world—mere mortals."

The God of Earth is considered the most intelligent and knowledgeable god in the entire world. It was he who first discovered the existence of the mysterious energy—Qi—in this world.

And it was also he who led the experiments and research on this energy that was millions of times more powerful than mana.

Long Yuyan stared at the God of Earth with her golden eyes, and almost instantly, the God of Earth felt a crushing pressure descend upon his body, making him immediately kneel on the ground.

’What the hell is this pressure? It felt as though my soul was about to shatter when I looked into her eyes!!’ He screamed inwardly in agony, his back immediately covered in cold sweat.

"God of Earth!!" The God of Fire immediately rushed toward him in panic.

But as soon as he got close to the God of Earth, his expression froze in an instant and turned pale.

Before he could realize what was happening, a crushing pressure also descended upon him, making him kneel on the ground instantly.

’What the hell is this power?!?!’ He screamed inwardly like a startled kitten.

The pressure was so intense that he couldn’t even muster any strength, as if he had become completely powerless.

"Hey, why did you also join him?" The Goddess of Wind raised her brows, a surprised look on her face.

’Why is that bastard kneeling like that?! What happened to him all of a sudden?’ She screamed in her mind, seemingly in disbelief.

Then she looked at Long Yuyan and gritted her teeth in frustration.

"YOU BITCH!! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO THEM?!?!" She roared at the top of her lungs as hundreds of wind blades appeared around her.

Without waiting for a response, she immediately launched all her attacks at Long Yuyan with a murderous look on her face.

Long Yuyan raised her eyes slightly and waved her hand toward the approaching attacks.

Whoosh! The approaching wind blades were immediately destroyed as a powerful wave of wind appeared and erased them.

"Hmph! Childish tricks..." Long Yuyan uttered as she casually destroyed all the attacks and snorted coldly at the goddess.

"If you think those tricks are enough to injure me, then you’re greatly mistaken... They’re nothing more than child’s play to me."

A heavy silence descended upon the battlefield as those words left Long Yuyan’s mouth with a cold sneer.

The gods stood frozen on the spot as they sensed her ominous aura, which made their souls tremble in fear and drenched their backs in cold sweat as they finally began to understand the situation.

’T-This is... H-How is this even possible? Are we going to lose now?’ The Goddess of Wind thought, a clear look of disbelief on her face.

’W-We have messed with the wrong people this time...’

The other gods also had the same thought in their minds as realization hit them like a wave, knowing that their greed for power had invited calamity.

"Now tell me, how do you all want to die? After all, your arrogance has led to this outcome, so you must face all the consequences." Long Yuyan’s voice resounded across the battlefield like thunder.

The gods became utterly shocked as fear gripped their hearts, realizing that in front of these people, their power was utterly useless.

The King of the Gods walked forward as the tip of his sword scraped against the ground, creating a grating sound that attracted everyone’s attention.

"Do you think we’re the kind of people who would surrender our lives without a fight? If so, then you’re greatly mistaken about us!" He roared as he lifted his sword and pointed it at Yuan and the others.

His eyes burned with rage, his heart pounding faster in his chest, and his Mana flowing like a tsunami.

"Oh? You have quite the guts, if you ask me... even after being beaten half to death by my son, you’re still acting arrogant." Anna Grace chuckled softly, her hands still gripping the hair of the Goddess of Light and Justice.

"Shut your disgusting mouth and release her, bitch!" The King of the Gods ignored her words and shouted, veins popping on his forehead with anger.

"What if I don’t? Are you going to bite me like a street dog?" Anna Grace blatantly made fun of him, further fueling his rage.

"Then you’ll die by my sword!" The King of the Gods roared at Anna Grace and suddenly launched a powerful attack at her.

However, Yuan suddenly appeared between them and intercepted the attack almost in the blink of an eye.

This shocked all the gods present at the scene, their eyes widening in disbelief.

Yuan stared coldly at the God King and said, "It seems that I was quite gentle with you... Perhaps it was a mistake on my part to spare your life."

"However, since you’ve raised your sword again, I will now show you what I’m capable of doing."

Yuan’s cold voice resounded across the battlefield, making all the gods feel a chill run down their spines.

In the blink of an eye, Yuan disappeared from his position and reappeared in front of the God King, shocking him with his sudden appearance so close to him.

’Just how fast did he move... Hmm? This is bad!!’ He screamed inwardly as his eyes widened.

And just as he was about to put some distance between them, Yuan swung his sword down at him. A dangerous feeling crept over him, and goosebumps appeared all over his body.

’Too late... I have to block his sword, or else I’m finished!!’ He screamed inwardly as he lifted his sword to block the attack.

"It’s useless... that piece of scrap metal couldn’t block my sword..." Yuan smiled as he saw the desperate attempt to block his sword.

"Huh?" The God King stared at him in disbelief upon hearing that.

Slash! Before he could do anything else, Yuan’s sword cut through the God King’s sword like butter before slicing through the God King himself and his armor.

Splash! Blood sprayed everywhere as the sword easily tore through the thick armor and sliced the God King in half.

Thud! His body fell to the ground in two pieces, shocking all the gods who witnessed the scene to their core.

The angels were also in shock, as everything had happened so fast, and the King of the Gods had fallen—killed in an instant.

Killed by the very people they had looked down upon.

A heavy silence fell over the entire battlefield as everyone witnessed the demise of the God King with their own eyes, turning the atmosphere eerie with dread.

"T-This must be an illusion..."

"H-His Majesty... His Majesty can’t lose to a mere mortal..."

"This is simply impossible! Our Majesty wouldn’t lose to a mere human! He is an undefeatable warrior!"

The Gods didn’t want to believe that their King had fallen, sliced in two and killed instantly. Their voices of disbelief immediately filled the battlefield.

However, just as they were focused on the dead body of their ruler, Yuan stepped forward with a dangerous smile on his face.

"Since your ignorant ruler is dead now, it’s time that you all accompany him to the afterlife." Yuan spoke, his voice sending a ripple of fear through the hearts of the so-called gods.

With that, Yuan started attacking the gods left and right, not sparing a single one.

He first attacked the remaining ancient gods, except for the Goddess of Light and Justice. Their clashes sent shockwaves throughout the entire battlefield.

However, the ancient gods couldn’t match Yuan’s strength and power and were ultimately cut down by his sword.
