Chapter 903: The Loss Belongs to All of You

According to the rules of the competition, the contestants could not fly off the stage. If either of them crossed the boundary, they would lose.

Ancient Goddess Liu Qing said that as long as the divine techniques could reach her, it could be considered as Vishnu’s victory. He seemed to have suffered losses, but in reality, he still had a comparative advantage. The competition stage was only so large, which meant that regardless of how Liu Qing dodged, she could not cross the boundary. Vishnu only needed to use divine techniques that would cover every inch of space in an instant.

Once Liu Qing was hit by the divine techniques, he could be considered to have won.

Countless divine techniques collided and destroyed the afterimages occupying the sky above the platform. In an instant, they dissipated like broken bubbles.

Yet once the divine techniques faded away, Vishnu still couldn’t see Brunhilda.

He looked at the empty platform, and his figure finally stabilized into a god flickering with golden light. There were golden eyes on his palms, inspecting every inch of the platform.

Nothing…

Still nothing…

After inspecting the entire platform, Vishnu still did not find Brunhilda. He was the closest to master god realm among the seven ancient gods, and his figure irregularly fluctuated, gathering all the bloodline abilities of a master god in one body. The golden-eyed god he showed right then was close to Asura’s bloodline ability. The golden eyes in the hollows of his palms could see through all energy fluctuations.

Then why couldn’t he find Brunhilda’s figure?

In terms of years spent in cultivation, Vishnu naturally had more. He stood at the pinnacle of the ancient god realm, so even if he was suppressed to god realm, his strength was more than enough to deal with Brunhilda.

“You lose!”

When Vishnu heard Brunhilda’s icy voice behind him, divine power bubbled forth. He turned around only to see Brunhilda who had appeared out of nowhere behind him.

“I lose?” he mumbled to himself.

He lost?!

Vishnu’s expression was absent-minded when he walked off the platform. Among the powerhouses like them, a small mistake was enough to end the battle. As long as they could sense a weakness in the enemy, win or loss would be decided in an instant. When Brunhilda appeared so close behind him, she could deal with him in one attack.

Brunhilda looked at the five ancient gods underneath and carefreely said, “Next one!”

Ye Tian looked at the dazed Vishnu as if looking at a companion and excitedly said to Indra, “You see, I told you I wasn’t charmed by Ancient Goddess Liu Qing. Now not only me, but even Vishnu was defeated by her.”

Vishnu returned to his seat in a daze, and when he heard Ye Tian’s words, his expression turned even more unsightly. The five ancient gods wouldn’t usually believe the others, even if their strength was comparable.

However, he lost in a battle with the newly advanced Ancient Goddess Liu Qing. Now, if any of his remaining three brothers defeated Liu Qing, it would be like a slap to his face.

Indra coldly snorted and said without paying the two much attention, “You two don’t possess enough mental strength. Both of you were charmed by Liu Qing, wasn’t that why you lost?”

When Yaksha heard his words, he immediately retorted, “If you said that my mental strength wasn’t enough, I could accept that, but Vishnu transformed into the golden-eyed god, who can see through all fabrications in the world. How could he still be charmed by the ancient goddess?”

As the two ancient gods fought with words, Vishnu’s expression grew more and more unsightly. Indra hadn’t gone to the stage, so him using the opportunity to humiliate them was completely normal. But Yaksha was the first one to lose, so how could he continue questioning Indra like that?

Wasn’t he hitting his own face with every sentence??

“Alright, if you have the ability, then go and fight Ancient Goddess Liu Qing, then we will see how strong your mental strength is!” Yaskha said with a cold snort.

Indra laughed then proceeded toward the stage. In the spectator stand, Yaksha turned to Vishnu and indignantly said, “I want to see if Indra can last until the end.”

“Perhaps he can, perhaps he cannot. The heavenly eye between his eyebrows is very formidable. It seems to me that Ancient Goddess Liu Qing charmed you before the competition even began.

“Now that you two have shown him the path, Indra will naturally be alert. Apart from the charms, Ancient Goddess Liu Qing cannot compare to us in regards to foundation.”

On the stage, an oval-shaped packet protruded in the space between Indra’s eyebrows. A crack developed in it, which seemed to be his third eye. There was nothing within it; it was completely black except a ball of thunder emitting sparks from time to time.

“Ancient Goddess Liu Qing, the two bouts you won previously were only a fluke. My two brothers don’t possess enough mental strength and were charmed by you. But I won’t be. I possess the heavenly eye which can restrain your charming technique. If you still want to use it, I would advise you to be a little bit careful,” Indra said with a faint smile.

Brunhilda snorted but didn’t reply. At that moment, she didn’t know whether the five ancient gods were excessively arrogant or just plain stupid. Even after two bouts of competition, they hadn’t discovered her strength. They really believed that she was using the block of meat that was her body to unleash charming techniques.

Since Liu Qing had a heaven-shaking body, anyone who saw her would fall in love without any extra techniques.

“Talk less rubbish. If you really are so confident, then quickly beat me.”

Indra didn’t reply, but his strange heavenly eye focused upon Brunhilda. In front of it, everyone was only a block of meat, so it could deal with all sorts of charming techniques. At that moment, Brunhilda was only a red skeleton in the heavenly eye, and Indra placed his hands in front of his chest to congeal a dazzling ball of lightning.

During the battle, he could not use ancient god realm’s cultivation, but no one had said that he could not use a technique which could produce an attack comparable to that of an ancient god or make use of his innate remarkable abilities. Apart from using the heavenly eye, he also possessed the bloodline ability of heavenly lightning.

Among the lightning laws, the most difficult to control was the primal heavenly lightning whose power was comparable to an attack of a master god.

Indra was ranked second among the ancient gods precisely because of his primal lightning. Even in a restricted state, it was comparable to an attack from an ancient god.

The only limitation in the competition was on cultivation. There was nothing that said Indra could not use the primal lightning which was comparable to an attack of an ancient god in terms of strength.

Within a few breaths, the ball of lightning in Indra’s hand enlarged quickly until it was as large as him.

” Indra is really cautious.”

“I knew it. He is playing dirty. No wonder he was so confident.”

“Hmph…”

Yaksha snorted, and his deep blue eyes turned somewhat malevolent. The five ancient gods had been staying in the divine palace from the time they were born, so they had lived together for a long time and were extremely familiar with each other. Indra had immediately used the heavenly eye once he stepped on the stage in order to defend against the charming technique used by Ancient Goddess Liu Qing.

Then, he used the primal lightning which was as strong as an attack from an ancient god. Indra was using his all to ensure that Ancient Goddess Liu Qing wouldn’t be his opponent. After all, in the two previous rounds, Ancient Goddess Liu Qing hadn’t only used her charming technique. Her speed was also very fast. Indra’s primal lightning could cover the entire stage, but he wasn’t certain that his attack would land.
