He soared toward Luo Yu, obediently allowing himself to be taken into his sleeve.
Had it been other deities before Luo Yu, there might have been a chance for resistance.
But the Thunder Deity's Son stood no chance, facing the forebear who commanded thunder itself.
"No——"
The God's Child watched as his Origin Power of thunder was siphoned away by the other party.
With a heart full of unwillingness, he let out a roar.
But it was all in vain.
Nothing could stop it, his arrogant confidence already a thing of the past.
Luo Yu consoled, "Don't worry, you're just losing a tiny bit of your combat power."
"Stop."
Raindrops fell from the sky, and a blurred figure condensed from the water flow, the Water God's Son, one of the Nine Great Pillar Gods, a short-statured woman.
Two torrents transformed into towering waves, rushing to rescue the Thunder Deity's Son.
Luo Yu shook his head.
Raising his hand, he pointed, and a thunderstrike of immense force descended from the heavens, striking the Thunder Deity's Son squarely.
Completely ignoring all streams of water, its power even surged tremendously.
Directly blasting the Thunder Deity's Son into pieces, countless Origin particles flew toward Luo Yu.
"You dare!" The Water God's Son was uncontrollable with rage, never expecting her intervention would end up harming the Thunder Deity's Son.
Luo Yu sighed,
"Silly child."
"Thunder follows lightning; your rain is useless here, it conducts electricity."
With a wave of his hand, he extracted ninety-nine percent of the Thunder Deity's Son's Origin Power and cast out the remainder.
What was left of the Thunder Deity's Son congealed into an insignificant figure less than twenty centimeters tall.
Luo Yu apologized, "Sorry, I accidentally withdrew a bit too much, let's just leave it at that."
The Thunder Deity's Son was trembling with anger.
You call that an accident?
I don't want to pick on you, but clearly, you did it on purpose!
However, he dared not argue with Luo Yu now, prioritizing the preservation of his own life, he scurried away dejectedly towards the ground.
"Boom, boom!"
With a wave of Luo Yu's hand, thunder rolled and fell from the sky.
With the Nine Heavens Responding Primordial Thunder Sound Universal Purification Heavenly Venerable present, all awe-inspiring thunder must heed the decree.
"Five-Colored Divine Thunderstrike."
Five-Colored Divine Thunder, carrying tremendous might, fell from the heavens, targeting the Water God.
The Water God's countenance turned grim, and she immediately employed the God Descending Technique.
Endless rainwater gathered together, forming a sphere of water that shielded her diminutive figure within.
"Boom!"
The might of thunder and lightning descended upon the water sphere condensed from rain.
Electricity crackled around it, deforming the sphere, but unable to penetrate it.
Luo Yu's eyes flashed in surprise, "A Faraday Cage?"
The Water God's Son boasted:
"Luoshenzi, the times have changed. One must cultivate not only their spirit but also embrace science."
"You've got a bit of brains, but not much."
Luo Yu shook his head, the decree transformed, and the Five-Colored Divine Thunder coalesced in the sky into a sky-piercing long spear. Its tip flowed with destructive light, and the majestic spear stretched hundreds of meters in length.
"Go!"
The thunder spear tore through the sky, hurtling toward the Water God's watery shield.
"Boom."
"No good."
The Water God's Son's face clouded over as the water shield popped like a balloon.
Water splashed in all directions.
The Water God's Son waved her hands frantically to defend, but the thunder spear shattered each water curtain, conducting electricity, leaving her scalp numb and cooked through and through.
"Boom, boom, boom."
At last, she managed to stop the terrifying thunder spear.
A sigh of relief escaped her.
She had narrowly reclaimed her life.
"Look above."
Hearing Luo Yu's friendly reminder, the Water God's Son looked up to the sky.
To her shock, there were already nine terrifying thunder spears hanging in the sky, each more fearsome than the last, plummeting straight down.
"????"
The Water God's Son trembled with fear, unable to block them; even one was hard enough to withstand.
There was no way she could handle nine.
"I admit..."
Before she could concede defeat, those nine long spears accelerated to more than a hundred times their speed and pierced through the body of the Water God's Son in the blink of an eye, exploding upon impact.
"Bang, bang, bang."
Thunder kept striking, the heavens flashed with electric arcs, turning into a sea of thunder and lightning.
The Thunder Deity watched from below with twitching lips and a tingling scalp.
Chills of horror ran through him—it was terrifying, had he not fled swiftly, he would surely be dead by now.
But could the Water God withstand such an attack?
Luo Yu flew into the purple sea of thunder, where the lightning seemed to have a will of its own, parting ways for him, causing no harm whatsoever.
He beckoned with his sleeve, and the Water God's Son's power was absorbed by him.
Only a very small portion of the power was left, just enough for the Water God's Son to barely cling to life.
Then he snapped his fingers.
The thunder and lightning bombing the sky came to a sudden halt, retreating and vanishing into the air in an instant.
This move stunned many people.
"Awesome!"
"Too awesome!"
"This Godchild is too demonic, to be able to display so many Dharma Aspects with such mastery."
"Is that what we should be focusing on, shouldn't we be concerned about why he has so many Dharma Aspects?"
The other Divine Children looked uncomfortable, suddenly feeling that Luo Yu was different from them.
Even if there was still a gap in strength, he had far too many Dharma Aspects.
They each had only one Deity's inheritance in them, this kid was simply outrageous.
The Water God was thrown to the ground, caught by a woman dressed in a white gauzy gown.
She was the Sky God from the Sun Holy Temple.
Looking up with wide eyes at Luo Yu, she was in no hurry to enter the fray.
By now, five of the Nine Great Pillar Gods had already retreated, and Luo Yu's momentum showed no signs of waning.
Before the battle began, no one could have known that Luo Yu could be so monstrously powerful.
Cao Potian and the other three were dumbfounded.
Luo Yu's display of power was more than just holding back against them; it was like holding back an entire sea.
The gap was getting wider and wider.
There's no need to mention how thrilled and excited the masses were.
They went from worry, fear, being cursed without the courage to retort, to now being exhilarated, excited, unabashedly lashing out at others, all the psychological changes experienced by those both underground and above were all because of Luo Yu.
Luo Yu's powerful strength was a great honor for Our Great Xia.
It simply signified invincibility.
There seemed to be no limit in sight.
"Da Xia Godson will definitely take on all nine of the Great Pillar Gods this time, just wait and see."
"Absolutely."
"Luoshenzi is invincible!"
The shouts were full of confidence and arrogance, but deep down they didn't all really think so.
After all, facing consecutive battles against the Nine Great Pillar Gods, the toll on Godchild Luo Yu was far too great.
They couldn't be certain Luo Yu could definitely win.
But of course, they would never admit defeat to the foreign public, it was okay to lose but not to lose face.
However, the remaining four Divine Children, heirs of the Pillar Gods, hesitated to enter the battlefield.
Nobody ridiculed them, though.
Instead, they thought Luo Yu's performance was indeed a bit too terrifying.
Just then, Luo Yu made a statement that shocked the whole world.
"Save some time."
"The four of you, come at me together."
"Boom!"
The Divine Children's faces showed shock, and the internet exploded with reactions.
"Holy shit! After being consecutively worn down by five people, he still wants to fight four at once?"
"This... can't be real, right? The strength of these Pillar Gods is much stronger than our deities."
"Awesome, 9, because 6 has been flipped."
"Such terror."
"The Godchild is too arrogant, but people really like it."
The remaining four Divine Children of the Solar Holy City widened their eyes, not expecting Luo Yu to be so daring.
"You're too arrogant!"
"You said it."
The remaining four Divine Children were those of Death, Sky, Life, and the Sun God.
The Sun God was the chief among the Nine Great Pillar Gods.
His chosen Divine Child was also the strongest of them, radiating a scorching white brilliance.
Not one of the four Divine Children said they didn't need to join forces, neglecting their pride.
One after another, they hurried into the sky.
Fearing that Luo Yu might change his mind.
After all, joining hands was better than being singled out and knocked out of the sky, wasn't it?
"Hahaha, come on, let's fight!"
Luo Yu laughed out loud, making no excuses as he directed thunder to fall from the sky.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The Solar Divine Child transformed into a white sphere of light, resisting the thunder.
The Sky and Death Divine Children flanked from the sides, unleashing the powers of space and death.
The Life Divine Child erupted with brilliant green light.
Healing the Sky and Sun Gods, he didn't dare to heal the Death Divine Child.
Fearing he might heal him to death.
Luo Yu wasn't afraid of facing more opponents; rather, he enjoyed the pressure that came with it.
"Bring it on, let's fight."
"Boom!"
Luo Yu then displayed a top-tier Great Divine Power in front of everyone, Three Heads and Six Arms...
