Chapter 277 Blessing of the Goddess of Love (1)
Space was a real mystery.
Even in the year 2030 where mankind had found all kinds of precious metals and lost technologies from previous civilizations buried deep in the ocean, most of the Solar System, let alone the Milky Way, home of Planet Earth, had yet to be studied.
During the year 2022, the governments of the world began to slowly shift the direction in which they were investing their financial resources and their focus from outer space to the waters within their own world. After all, if they didn't even know about the world they resided in as well as the possible dangers lurking there, what was the point in looking further into space? Wasn't it just plain stupid? The main governments, who had realized that they were trying to chew more than they could digest, finally put aside thoughts of adventuring into the vast universe to focus on the planet's oceans.
Three years later, with the efforts of mankind and astronomical amounts of money invested, rigorous and constant study, along with the union of brilliant minds; humanity had finally explored more than 70% of the ocean waters. The findings were incredible to say the least.
Weapons technology at least a hundred years ahead of current technology, plans for lethal but easy to carry weapons, armor that could withstand even the explosion of several mother bombs, as well as the precious and scarce adamantium that all the governments of the world drooled over.
Now, in the year 2030, humanity, which had already explored its waters in full, finally stepped into the vast universe once again. Better prepared, with greater technology and knowledge; this time, they were not willing to stop until they fully knew the secrets of the place that, according to some renowned scientists, was in constant expansion.
Xie Feng observed the stars brighter than ever before in front of his eyes. Even under such a seemingly dangerous condition in which he would soon face a True God, the beauty of the universe was simply too magnificent to ignore.
However, beautiful things were often also the most dangerous, and this was no exception... No. Right now outer space was probably more dangerous than ever.
RUMBLE...
RUMBLE...
RUMBLE...
The dark space similar to a wolf's mouth in front of Xie Feng shuddered fiercely and its surroundings began to rumble constantly.
"It should be soon." Xie Feng whispered to himself as he began to prepare.
BANG!
With a powerful bang, the space around Xie Feng was on the verge of cracking. However, perhaps because his strength was insufficient to provoke such a phenomenon or perhaps because it was not his intention, the cracks recovered in the blink of an eye.
WHOOSH!!!
Even in the dangerous outer space, the wind howled wildly and began to gather in colossal quantities around him. Xie Feng closed his eyes and clenched his teeth tightly, preparing the strongest attack possible.
His intention was to "surprise" the Buluc Chabtan God just when the totem finished manifesting. Things like honor were of no importance to Xie Feng; the winner was the king and the loser was the thief.
Selfish? Maybe... Unfair? Maybe... But, wasn't that the way of the world? People were selfish; even those priests who claimed to be righteous and spread the word of God enjoyed lives of luxury in a cathedral with tons of hidden gold while millions of people starved to death.
Xie Feng grew up in an unjust and selfish world from the very beginning... So how could he care about such a thing like justice or kindness? Waiting for his enemy to be in optimal conditions like Son Goku? Pure bullsh*t! If he could hit his enemy while he was on his knees, he would gladly do it!
The victory was everything; his loved ones were waiting for him!
Ten minutes later.
"I guess this should do it..."
Staring at the huge sphere above his head, Xie Feng gasped softly while small beads of sweat formed on his face only to be immediately frozen by the cold temperatures. Being its creator, even he was afraid in the face of the power of the thing hovering above him! Xie Feng was sure that the size of the wind sphere was no smaller than the size of planet Earth!
In fact, Xie Feng was unaware of the commotion the blue planet was in who knows how many kilometers behind him at the appearance of a huge bright object.
Looking at the totem in front of him almost complete, Xie Feng smiled to shake off the excitement coursing through his veins as he thought, 'Even if you're a True God, you should at least suffer enough with this!'
BOOM!!!
Five minutes later, followed by a loud explosion, the totem was finally complete.
The totem of the God of Human Sacrifice, also known as a small God of War, the avatar of the ancient god of the Mayan civilization had finally materialized.
Two meters tall, a body covered with tattoos and runes of all kinds of colors, a kind of feather crown, and several necklaces and bracelets gave the middle-aged man an extremely wild appearance. Just feeling the power oozing from every part of the totem in front of his eyes, Xie Feng sensed danger.... Real life-threatening danger.
However...
"It's not even the main body of this damn thing..." Xie Feng clenched his teeth in frustration as he realized that he had underestimated the power of a True God.
Unfortunately, he didn't have too much time to think. Without any hesitation and without any shame, taking advantage of the fact that his enemy still seemed distracted by the change of places, Xie Feng roared loudly and threw the planet-sized wind sphere forward!
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
Every time the huge sphere that contained enough power to destroy a world or a star advanced, the void constantly cracked; barely withstanding the immense power of the giant object!
"Uh?"
The totem of the Buluc Chabtan God let out a sound of surprise and when he looked forward his eyes widened slightly. However, that was all, though.
Clenching his fist, Buluc Chabtan pounded forward with all his might.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!
The totem fist formed by the power of the God of the ancient Mayan civilization and the attack launched by Xie Feng collided with each other. An explosion no smaller in size than the collision between Xie Feng's typhoon and Nangong Jun's lightning spear constantly shook thousands of kilometers of space.
"What a surprise." Murmured the almighty God in a monotone voice that showed no surprise, unlike his words. "To think that I would encounter an attack of such magnitude as a greeting."
The reason Buluc Chabtan muttered those words was because even after punching as hard as his avatar allowed, the giant sphere in front of him had not been destroyed. On the contrary, he could clearly sense that if he relaxed, the powerful attack launched by the unknown enemy would consume him and the amount of damage his avatar would receive would be no laughing matter.
Swoosh!
"Mm!?" Looking behind him while still holding his right fist containing the huge sphere, Buluc Chabtan was even more surprised when he saw a person appear there.
This person was, naturally, Xie Feng. While his enemy was holding back his strongest attack, he silently sneaked up behind him to strike once more!
Clenching both fists together like a hammer, Xie Feng raised both arms above his head and while roaring at the top of his lungs, he struck downwards with the intention of smashing Buluc Chabtan's head. Xie Feng believed that if this punch, which was being reinforced who knows how many times his physical strength by billions of wind energy particles hit, it should at least be able to cause considerable damage!
Buluc Chabtan raised his left arm to cover himself from the surprise attack. Since he was still holding back Xie Feng's first attack, he had no choice but to receive his attacks passively.
Whoever attacks first, has the advantage! This was a truth that applied to the greatest of cases, and this was the proof of it!
BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
Another terrifying explosion shook the normally silent outer space and, from the agitated blue planet in the distance, people could faintly discern glimmers of light from the distant, far-off sky above their heads.
Many people knelt and prayed, others cried inconsolably as they asked forgiveness for their sins, others simply stood there; waiting for whatever the destiny had in store for them. They, who were too weak to control their destinies in the face of absolute power, could only watch, pray, or cry.
