182: Chapter 182 The Golden Statue of the Martial God! Illuminating Heaven and Earth!
The battlefield was filled with an aura of slaughter, and almost everyone's gaze was fixed on the fifty Martial Gods in the sky.
These fifty Martial Gods symbolized the pinnacle of humanity's current combat power; if they wished, destroying the world would be a trivial matter.
Three hundred years had passed since the Spirit Awakening, yet there had never been an opportunity to gather the world's top combat power in one place.
Since it was the Black Earth Tribe that had struck first, the twenty-four Martial Gods present from Daxia were clearly burning with monstrous Battle Intent.
The hot-tempered Martial God Qin Ming was the first to speak.
"Since everyone is here, stop hesitating! If we're going to fight, let's fight! It's hard for us to gather together even once in several hundred years; some people here haven't even made a move in decades!"
Martial God Qin Ming's attitude was simple: just start fighting.
He didn't consider the consequences at all; once these fifty Martial Gods started fighting each other, the entire world would be affected.
He wanted to fight, but the others were unwilling.
To be able to Cultivate to the Martial God Realm, one had basically reached the limit of human cultivation; who wouldn't want to live a little longer?
Especially the Martial Gods from the Baiou Empire; they had nothing to do with this grievance and did not want to be unnecessarily dragged into the conflict between the Black Earth Tribe and Daxia.
However, once Martial Gods strike, they don't distinguish between territories; even if the Baiou Empire remained neutral, they would inevitably be implicated.
Not to mention the conventional war over the Qiyuan Mountains just now, where the Baiou Empire had already gained a significant advantage, so Hanks was even less inclined to fight.
Seeing the tension between Daxia and the Black Earth Tribe, Hanks hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over.
"You are all Martial Gods; you should understand the magnitude of the consequences if we start fighting! My suggestion is to negotiate if possible, and try not to resort to force!"
"The land beneath our feet is the Foundation upon which we depend for survival! Everyone, please be cautious!"
The Baiou Empire naturally hoped that the Black Earth Tribe and Daxia would sit down to negotiate; regardless, they would end up gaining significant benefits in the end.
Because this time, it was the Black Earth Tribe that tore up the Martial God Agreement. You must know that when nuclear weapons were used previously, the Baiou Empire's experience was identical to the Black Earth Tribe's, eventually forcing them to cede one-third of their overseas resource locations.
The consequences caused by the Black Earth Tribe now were far more serious than the use of nuclear weapons.
Zhao Zhenyuan remained silent. Although he didn't really want to fight, he had to apply enough pressure on the Black Earth Tribe at this moment so that they would deeply realize their wrongful actions.
In reality, the Martial Gods of the Black Earth Tribe were somewhat fearful at this moment. In terms of Martial God combat power alone, Daxia was in a position of overwhelming superiority.
If a real fight broke out, the one to suffer the most severe injuries would inevitably be the Black Earth Tribe.
Even if the Martial Gods of the Black Earth Tribe and the Martial Gods of the Baiou Empire joined forces, they would only barely be on par with Daxia.
Not to mention one-on-one!
In the current situation, if a real fight broke out, the Baiou Empire would certainly not help!
The Martial Gods of the Baiou Empire had only come to protect their own citizens.
During the standoff, Morpheus had been observing the situation. Seeing the Martial Gods of his own country showing signs of fear, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Although he was indeed at fault this time, the tougher the attitude of the Black Earth Tribe, the less they would have to pay in terms of price for reconciliation during the subsequent negotiations.
Seeing that the Martial Gods of Daxia were all full of Battle Intent, while his own side's Martial Gods were timid, was the reason why Morpheus felt disheartened.
He understood very well that the losses the Black Earth Tribe would suffer this time were likely immeasurable.
Since Morpheus had made his move, he hadn't spoken, but now he finally stepped forward. Although it was indeed a despicable act for a Martial God to participate in a conventional war, he was at least willing to own up to his actions.
"I was impulsive before, and I was indeed wrong! It was I who unilaterally tore up the Martial God Agreement; I will accept whatever punishment you impose on me! However, one person should bear the consequences of their own actions; you do not need to blame my country or my people!"
With these words spoken, it was no wonder that Morpheus could be regarded as a savior by the people of the Black Earth Tribe.
One who could become the marshal of a nation was inevitably a significant figure.
However, although Morpheus admitted his mistake, Zhao Zhenyuan knew very well that now was not the time for peace talks.
After all, if a mysterious Martial God hadn't intervened just now, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
The next moment, Zhao Zhenyuan looked at Morpheus with towering rage and said in a deep voice: "One person should bear the consequences of their own actions? That sounds nice! Morpheus, don't you forget the reason why the Martial God Agreement was formulated in the first place!"
"The power of Martial Gods needs to be controlled! Otherwise, the world will inevitably perish because of it! This point was recognized by our three countries back then!"
"If a Martial God can just admit their mistake after doing something wrong, then how about I destroy your capital city in the next second and then apologize to you?"
While speaking, the massive Martial God Golden Body behind Zhao Zhenyuan instantly appeared.
He had no intention of suppressing his own power, and the next moment, that majestic, ocean-like might spread across the entire Qiyuan Mountains.
Everyone did not know that, in reality, having reached the Martial God Realm, their power had long since surpassed that of ordinary people. Therefore, in their daily activities, they would deliberately suppress their power, even while sleeping!
Because once they did not deliberately suppress their power, this power could cause harm to ordinary people.
To give a simple example, once an ordinary person with absolutely no cultivation stays with a Martial God releasing their full power, they would immediately be turned into powder by the Martial God's power.
The higher the Realm, the less one would be suppressed by the Martial God's power.
At this moment, the soldiers within the mountains felt this power being released without restraint, and in an instant, they all made expressions of extreme pain and discomfort.
Even though Li Mo had reached the Liangyi Realm, he still felt chest tightness and shortness of breath.
Some brothers from the Independent Regiment were even in so much pain that they knelt on the ground.
Fortunately, standing beside everyone was the Martial God Chen Xingbian, who had been famous for many years. He waved his hand slightly and dispelled the pressure the others were receiving.
"I remember the current marshal is Zhao Zhenyuan, right! Not bad!"
Chen Xingbian praised Zhao Zhenyuan, acknowledging the strength of Zhao Zhenyuan as a Martial God.
Just after Zhao Zhenyuan made his display, the next moment, all the Martial Gods of Daxia simultaneously revealed their own Martial God Golden Body.
This scene was extremely spectacular, just like dozens of golden Buddha statues appearing in the sky, instantly illuminating the entire land.
A miracle could not be more than this!
This scene moved the soldiers of Daxia to tears.
"This is our Daxia's Martial God! The true ultimate power!"
"What Black Earth Tribe! What Baiou Empire! They are nothing but weaklings!"
"Sigh! I wonder when I will be able to become one of these figures!"
