Chapter 547: Chapter 541: Equatorial Stele Divine Battlefield

An invisible yet tangible divine thought spread out from [Xi]’s body.

The full-coverage helmet obscured its expression, but [Xi]’s tone still betrayed its inner turmoil: "This is impossible!"

How could mere mortals evade the perception of the divine?

Simply a group of natives wielding low-level extraordinary powers, how could they escape their probing abilities?

Countless gazes, sharp as daggers, stabbed fiercely at the Four Gods.

[Xi] could feel it...

Within the eyes of these Earthlings, there lay the usual fear and panic, but beyond that, there was something unfamiliar.

That was...

A resolute killing intent of life and death!

At another time, in another place, being looked at like this by a group of mortals, [Xi] would find it amusing.

Now, it felt uncomfortable and irritable all over.

How dare these Earthlings look at a god with such eyes?

"Did you feel it?"

Ma Ran stood before the Four Gods, his demeanor calm, his tone serene, revealing composure: "The wisdom, martial strength, fighting spirit, and intent of seven billion Earth humans."

Whether it was [Xi]’s attempt at a sneak attack being thwarted earlier, or the "Invisibility Stealth" by the comrades of the Guardian Organization, it was all thanks to the pre-arranged achievements of Enclosure Text.

After all, now that Ma Ran had ascended to the throne of Earth’s extraordinary, any display of exceptional abilities required no further explanation.

A sudden deposit of ten million into a regular office worker’s account would prompt various investigations, even accusations of possession of unexplained massive assets.

Yet for a top-tier billionaire listed on Forbes, a sudden addition of ten million to their account would cause no concern; even if known, it would just be considered another successful secret investment.

Similarly, whether it was Ma Ran’s progression in Burning Martial or his exchanges with the Cangming Overlords...

The audience would automatically fill in the blanks, providing the most reasonable explanation.

After listening to Ma Ran, [Xi] remained silent, the response came from a deity whose features and figure were gender-neutral.

"No matter how numerous, ants are still just ants!"

This god’s voice was also hard to distinguish in terms of gender, like a youth going through a voice change.

He removed a helmet identical to [Xi]’s, casually tossing it aside, revealing a handsome and delicate face. His gaze intensely fixed on Ma Ran, his words carrying an aura of youthful arrogance: "Earthling with the title of ’Prophet’, your talent and efforts have earned my respect."

"You are qualified to know my divine name."

At this point, the mid-stage god’s voice boomed like a bell, with soundwaves that penetrated the heavens and the earth, dispersing the clouds, trembling the ground, and causing ripples in lakes and puddles alike.

"[Hong]."

"Remember it."

"The one to send you to the land of eternal slumber is the wondrous [Hong] from the Divine Court!"

Within this soundwave lay terrifying power, even causing cracks to form on the Equatorial Stele at the distantly situated Galagali Village, emitting a cracking sound.

In contrast, the ordinary passersby, with lesser endurance, seemed to be under an unseen protection, merely screaming as they fled, without incurring any substantial harm.

As soon as those words fell, the god with the codename [Hong], shrouded in blue light, transformed into a stream of light in a blink, seemingly intent on annihilating Ma Ran on the spot. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

But before he could launch a true attack, he was intercepted.

He was intercepted not by Ma Ran, nor by any other Earthling, but by his captain.

"[Xi], why are you stopping me? The majesty of the gods must not be offended!"

[Hong] glared unkindly at the temporary captain standing between him and Ma Ran: "The actions of these Earthlings are considered unforgivable crimes, even in the Divine Court."

"Their civilization and race must be completely obliterated."

"Nothing less can cleanse their sins or restore the majesty of the Divine Court!"

The two other deities standing beside [Hong] and [Xi] did not speak; they kept their own counsel and silently cast their gaze on [Xi].

Clearly, they too supported [Hong]’s actions and did not understand [Xi]’s reaction at all.

Indeed, Prophet Ma Ran’s natural talent was so remarkable that it astonished the gods; even if not considering his methods for breaking the Avoidance Protection, an existence like his would be hard to encounter in a hundred centuries even within the Divine Court!

Moreover...

Ma Ran, born in the remote Earth Civilization, despite his narrow experience, could spontaneously devise a means to break the Avoidance Protection...

Take this into account, and not only a hundred centuries, but even from the founding year of the Divine Court until now, they had never seen or heard of any life form that could match Ma Ran in terms of aptitude.

The gods all cherish talents.

An existence like Ma Ran, if he could be subdued and used at will, the benefits reaped would be endless!

But the problem is...

Greed is often the primary sin leading to the downfall of deities!

Once a talent becomes capable of harming the gods, such a talent is no longer a talent!

Such a being is a demon! A devil! An unforgivable monster that must be annihilated immediately!

[Xi] did not offer much explanation, suppressing the urge to roll its eyes and looking towards Ma Ran.

It had already said...

Ma Ran’s life magnetic field is stronger than that of any of the Four Gods!

It was unclear who gave those foolish teammates the confidence to think of challenging Ma Ran one-on-one?

Isn’t a group fight more appealing?

Thinking this, its gaze focused on a "void" in front of Ma Ran.

Seeing this, Ma Ran raised an eyebrow slightly: "You’ve discovered it, huh..."

"Although only a Lower Rank God, you are indeed capable if you could stand as a solo team leader."

"Compared to the brash [Hong], I’m more interested in knowing your name."

"How should I address you?"

The name of the previously seen gender-neutral god sounded somewhat similar to the super digital life [Hong] that Ma Ran had enlightened through the [Devil’s Son] medal.

But in Ma Ran’s view, without considering the combat power, his own [Hong] was many hundreds of times superior to the [Hong] from the Divine Court.

At least in terms of intelligence attributes, the super digital life [Hong] could completely crush this mid-stage god from the Divine Court.

Upon hearing these words, the overlooked [Hong] bulged with blue veins on his forehead, his platinum shoulder-length hair billowing without wind, a hint of anger showing on his face.

"Don’t be impulsive."

[Xi] said coolly: "These Earthlings are very cunning."

"If I hadn’t stopped you just now, you probably would be dead by now."

These words sounded like a ridiculous dream to [Hong].

Just as he was about to voice his doubts, he shockingly realized that between himself and Ma Ran, there appeared a "plane" that was invisible to the naked eye, untouchable, but detectable through divine power.

[Hong] came back to his senses, gasping sharply.
