Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

Chapter 581: Deadlock

Chapter 581: Deadlock

Ashen Cyan Divine Kingdom.

Gu Nan's descent was beyond everyone's expectations. Even Boswell himself was only paying attention to Baal. He didnt expect for Gu Nan to visit his own Divine Kingdom.

This wasnt an issue with the gods overlooking something. Rather, no normal person would choose to do this.

Not even the most powerful greater gods could deal with the Ashen Cyan Divine Kingdom in a short amount of time. Expanding the influence of invading laws took time, and slaughtering the Divine Kingdoms inhabitants took even more time.

After the initial surprise, Boswell quickly calmed down and began to deal with Gu Nan's attack.

He himself didnt show up at all and only used laws to resist Gu Nan's invasion. This Ruler of Ashen Cyan was clearly very experienced. Even with Gu Nan's proficiency, his progress wasnt fast.

Austin and Daisy rushed here shortly after and quickly attacked Gu Nan. Their target was naturally the Stigma of Life and Death.

In essence, the body was affected by the soul, and the Stigma of Life and Death was left directly on Gu Nan's soul, which meant the mark would definitely appear as long as he created a physical body.

And in the Ruler of Ashen Cyans territorywith Austin and Daisy also presentit was impossible for Gu Nan to act only using laws, or else he would be completely suppressed.

He needed to materialize a physical form, but the Stigma of Life and Death was planted on his body. On the other hand, the attackable targets were either protected or difficult to take down quickly. This seemed like a hopeless situation.

But Gu Nan never felt that a hopeless situation existed.

The same time Austin and Daisy descended, Gu Nans figure blurred and appeared directly above Austin's head, raining a punch down without hesitation.

Austin's reaction was no different from before. He completely ignored defense and raised his sword to stab the Stigma of Life and Death.

But Gu Nan didnt choose to dodge this time and punched Austin, just like this. The terrifying force from the Evil God physique instantly destroyed Austin's divine body.

But the moment the holy sword pierced Gu Nans divine body, most of his body suddenly turned into shadows, including his abdomen, where the Stigma of Life and Death was located.

The Stigma of Life and Death was a very incredible thing. It directly affected the soul, so it wouldnt actually disappear even if his body turned into laws.

Even if his entire body transformed into shadows, the stigma would not budge at all; it would still be stabbed by the holy sword.

But Gu Nan handled it very strangely. He turned the body at and below the abdomen into shadows but kept his upper body intact. This caused his soul to naturally shrink and concentrate on his remaining upper body.

As the soul shrunk, the Stigma of Life and Death naturally moved with it, so the holy sword weirdly missed its mark.

After all, Gu Nan was a seasoned player whod fought countless greater gods. Even though it was his first time encountering the Stigma of Life and Death, he immediately discovered its advantages and disadvantages.

The Stigma of Life and Death was undoubtedly very powerful. Although there was a time limit for the forced death feature, the fact that it could directly affect Gu Nans body was already terrifying enough.

But the disadvantage of this kind of stigma was that the strength required to trigger it was dependent on the targets power. In other words, the stronger the target, the stronger the force required to trigger the stigma and injure the opponent's soul.

With Gu Nan's current realm, there were only a few people in the world who could trigger the Stigma of Life and Death on him; even if others hit the mark, it would have no effect.

Gu Nan could also use this characteristic against Austin.

Although Austin had enough power to trigger the mark, he also had to concentrate his power to reach that threshold, so large-scale attacks were out of the question, which gave Gu Nan a chance to dodge.

It was under this series of psychological games that Gu Nan successfully deceived Austin once. Not only did Austin miss the mark, but his divine body was also blasted apart in the process.

Although Austin was able to reconstruct his divine body very quickly, damage done to his Godhead was still damage.

Even Austin couldnt reconstruct his divine body indefinitely. Once his Godhead took too much damage, even his realm might fall.

The three of them were once again at a standstill. Gu Nan's trick of moving the mark also deceived Daisy, causing her attack to fail as well.

The inhabitants of the Ashen Cyan Divine Kingdom were still being slaughtered rapidly by Gu Nan, but Gu Nan looked at Austin and Daisywhose expressions were as dark as storm cloudsand suddenly smiled.

Then, under the twos flabbergasted gazes, Gu Nan suddenly turned and ran away.

He did not leave the Ashen Cyan Divine Kingdom, but ran directly with his legs, reaching an incredible speed.

Austin's figure cut through the void, descending in front of Gu Nan with endless holy light, but before he could attack, Gu Nan had already made a sharp turn, and in the blink of an eye, not even his shadow could be seen anymore.

The second shortcoming of the Stigma of Life and Death: How can you hit the stigma when you can't even catch the enemy?

The Evil God physique represented a comprehensive strengthening of the body. There were too many tactics Gu Nan could employ, each of which was different from normal greater god battles, making it hard for Austin and the others to adapt.

"Let's guard the Ashen Cyan Divine Kingdom and have Boswell come," Austin stopped in his tracks and said to Daisy.

In fact, Daisy also knew what to do even without his instructions. They were all top-tier figures and could naturally make the best decisions.

While Gu Nan was running, the law of shadows constantly eroding the Ashen Cyan Divine Kingdom seemed to encounter a sudden resistance, and his progress abruptly slowed down.

Because the two laws of light and darkness had already intervened, greatly curbing the shadows' progress and allowing Boswell to free up his hands.

So while Gu Nan was running, a cyan light suddenly rose in front of him, aiming directly for the mark on his abdomen.

This strike was extremely accurate, as if it had predicted all of Gu Nan's movements. The moment the cyan light reached his body, Gu Nan forcibly twisted himself at an angle and faced the green light with his waist.

The cyan light instantly penetrated his waist. It was apparent that Boswell had charged up a large amount of laws in this blow. The force was definitely not low, and it was completely enough to trigger the mark.

Being inside his own Divine Kingdom, Boswell could easily judge Gu Nan's movements and accurately hit the Stigma of Life and Death with his attacks, making him the best choice to deal with Gu Nan.

Similarly, if Gu Nan dared to enter the Holy Light Divine Kingdom, then Austin would definitely be able to hit the stigma easily.

However, in order to do this, Boswell was forced to materialize his divine body. Only when powerful laws converged at a certain point was it possible to launch attacks strong enough to trigger the stigma.

But Gu Nan wasnt afraid. He began to dodge left and right and even had time to interfere with Austin and Daisy to speed up the shadow erosion.

Towards the end, he even ran close to Boswell's materialized divine body, punching him from time to time and throwing the battlefield into disarray.

During this whole process, Boswell failed to hit Gu Nans mark even once.

Gu Nan could make his body smaller, bigger, pure laws, etc. and had plenty of ways to change the stigmas position while the Ruler of Ashen Cyan only had one attackthe Ashen Cyan ray.

His realm wasnt high enough and he was also wounded, so he could only rely on this method to condense a large quantity of laws.

As time passed, the number of inhabitants in the Ashen Cyan Divine Kingdom continuously dwindled, and the three greater gods began to feel worried.
