I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 2320 Unexpected Attack
"You, here." The lights on the AI-powered No. 1 body suddenly flickered, and then a clearly visible arrow appeared on the ground, pointing straight at the array not far away.

The giant kidney spirit seemed to finally understand the intention of the AI-powered system, and it began to slowly hop forward.

However, due to its enormous size and lack of complete visual guidance, this jump resulted in it crashing directly into the nearby AI-powered No. 1.

The AI-powered computer was sent spinning through the air, tracing a comical arc.

"Damn you!" The AI ​​1 steadied itself in mid-air, spun around and flew back, cursing loudly as soon as it landed.

It's so frustrating! This AI, created by the Heavenly Dao, was actually knocked away by a kidney. Doesn't it have any dignity?

However, the giant kidney spirit seemed completely unconcerned. It hopped into the formation and then remained motionless, as if frozen in place by some mysterious force.

Liu Jun stood aside and witnessed everything. He then shook his head speechlessly and activated the formation.

As the formation was activated, a mysterious power began to surge between the giant kidney spirit and him, as if building an invisible bridge between them.

Immediately afterwards, the giant kidney demon's body began to shrink gradually, though not very noticeably, it was still visible. Liu Jun, on the other hand, felt a warm sensation coming from his lower back, as if he were receiving physical therapy.

That was the formation at work, gradually fusing the power of the giant kidney spirit with Liu Jun's body. This fusion was not merely a physical combination, but a profound merging of soul and power.

Liu Jun closed his eyes tightly, focusing intently on sensing this wondrous change. He could clearly perceive another mysterious power flowing continuously into his body from within the giant kidney spirit, intertwining and merging with his own power.

However, the rate at which the giant kidney spirit shrank began to slow down, as if it were being restrained by some invisible force. At the same time, its fusion progress with Liu Jun also slowed down, and every step seemed extremely difficult.

"At this rate, it will probably take a whole year to complete the fusion." The voice of AI-powered No. 1 echoed in the empty cavern, carrying a hint of helpless analysis.

Its body flashed blue light as it continuously calculated various data, trying to find a way to accelerate the fusion, but the results were disappointing.

Cat Bro squatted to the side, lazily yawning, seemingly unconcerned about the concerns of AI-powered No. 1.

While it may not have lived for tens of thousands of years, it has certainly lived for several thousand years, and its concept of time has long since become blurred. For it, this year might really just be a slightly longer nap.

As for Liu Jun, he was completely immersed in the wonderful process of merging with the kidney spirit.

During this process, he was unaware of the passage of time and forgot about the disturbances of the outside world.

Time passed slowly, and a month had quietly gone by since the initial integration.

In the past month, although Liu Jun's fusion with the Kidney Spirit has made considerable progress, it is still far from complete. The estimation of the AI-powered system was correct; it will indeed take a year to complete the entire fusion process.

However, three uninvited guests suddenly appeared in this seemingly peaceful cave.

They were dressed in disheveled clothes and looked haggard. They were none other than Liu Jun's enemies—Yu Qiushui, the head of the Temple of Heaven, and his two deputy heads.

Yu Qiushui and the others hid in the distance, their eyes revealing hatred. For the past month or so, they had truly suffered terribly; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as being in dire straits.

If Liu Jun hadn't teleported them all to this Burial Valley of Gods, they would still be the high and mighty Lord and Deputy Lord of the Heavenly Lord's Palace outside.

Yu Qiushui stared intently at Liu Jun, who was undergoing fusion, her eyes filled with a hint of ruthlessness, and a cold smile curled at the corner of her lips.

Although he didn't know what Liu Jun was doing, he knew it was definitely a way to improve his strength. Once this ritual was completed, Liu Jun's strength would experience a qualitative leap, making it much harder to deal with him then.

Therefore, he decided to take this opportunity to eliminate Liu Jun in its infancy.

However, if we want to take this opportunity to kill Liu Jun, there is one crucial issue to consider: the god beside Liu Jun.

“The God Lord seems to be acting strangely,” Peng Cheng frowned, his eyes filled with doubt. “Wasn’t he controlled by the beast spirit? Why is he so quiet, without making a sound?”

His words were full of confusion, and the hatred he felt for Liu Jun was temporarily suppressed by this confusion.

Recalling her interactions with Liu Jun more than a month ago, Peng Cheng wished she could tear Liu Jun apart and skin him alive right then and there.

During that time, he not only suffered indelible physical injuries, but more importantly, Liu Jun's betrayal planted a seed of resentment in his heart that was difficult to quell.

Over the past month, Yu Qiushui and Liu Yuan have treated him with various rare elixirs, and his physical injuries have largely healed. However, the wounds in his heart are far beyond the reach of medicine. Only by killing Liu Jun can he avenge his humiliation and quell the hatred in his heart.

Upon hearing this, Yu Qiushui and Liu Yuan also looked puzzled. They were equally perplexed as to why the God Lord, controlled by the crazed beast spirit, showed no intention of attacking Liu Jun, instead appearing so calm, as if asleep. "Could it be that the God Lord is truly asleep?" Yu Qiushui speculated, her tone tinged with uncertainty.

"Or perhaps the beast soul within the body has already disappeared?" Liu Yuan suggested another possibility, but then shook his head, dismissing his guess. "But that doesn't make sense either. This sleeping posture is just like an animal lying down to sleep. Besides, does Liu Jun have the ability to shatter the beast soul within the God Lord's body?"

Clearly, Liu Jun didn't have that ability. If he really did, he wouldn't have been chased around by the crazed God Lord before.

They were clearly unaware that the soul within the god's body was no longer the mad beast's soul, but had transformed into the soul of a large tabby cat.

Although this tabby cat appears to be asleep, it is extremely alert, quietly observing everything around it with a highly vigilant attitude.

“I estimate that the God Lord is truly asleep, or that the beast soul within him has truly disappeared.” After pondering for a moment, Yu Qiushui finally gave his judgment. “However, to prevent any accidents, if the God Lord suddenly wakes up, you two are responsible for luring him away, and I will go kill Liu Jun.”

Yu Qiushui's tone was firm, and his eyes gleamed with a resolute light. At this moment, he seemed to see himself slaying his enemy, all the resentment and unwillingness to be released in that instant.

Although Peng Cheng and Liu Yuan still had doubts, they could only nod in agreement in the face of Yu Qiushui's determination and prepare to act according to the plan.

What they didn't notice was that, in the instant the murderous aura emanated, the seemingly sleeping deity lying on the ground twitched his ears slightly.

Meanwhile, the AI-powered No. 1 hovered silently beside the God, motionless. However, the soft light on its surface suddenly turned into a striking red, flickering with a subtle glow, as if conveying some kind of warning to Cat Brother in its own unique way.

Cat didn't really need a reminder, since it controlled the body of the deity, and this body not only had amazing defensive capabilities but also formidable perception. It had already sensed the unusual aura permeating the surrounding air, but simply didn't take any action.

Especially at the moment when Yu Qiushui and the others exuded murderous aura, Cat Brother's perception reached its peak, directly locking onto the positions of Yu Qiushui, Liu Yuan, and Peng Cheng.

"Ready, make your move!" Yu Qiushui's deep voice rang out as he charged towards Liu Jun, who was focused on merging with the kidney spirit within the formation.

The figure moved like an arrow released from a bow, its speed astonishing, and every movement revealed a strong killing intent.

Liu Yuan and Peng Cheng followed closely behind, their eyes fixed on the deity at all times, not daring to relax for a moment.

They had already devised a plan: once the deity awoke, they would immediately lure him elsewhere, creating an opportunity for Yu Qiushui to strike.

However, despite their meticulous planning, they had not anticipated that the body of the deity was actually the soul of the giant tabby cat.

This big tabby cat is not only incredibly intelligent, but it also has a life-or-death bond with Liu Jun.

"Roar—" Cat Brother roared, controlling the massive body of the god to suddenly stand up, like an ancient beast that had just awakened, causing the surrounding air to tremble.

Although Liu Yuan and Peng Cheng were prepared, witnessing the deity awaken from his slumber still caused them to involuntarily reveal a hint of fear on their faces.

"Don't panic!" Yu Qiushui immediately reassured them upon seeing the situation, her voice firm and powerful, trying to calm them down. "This is just a body controlled by a mad beast's soul. It has all the power but no real mind. It's just a savage beast."

Liu Yuan and Peng Cheng exchanged a glance, seeing a resolute look in each other's eyes. They attacked simultaneously, their movements as swift as lightning, rushing towards the God Lord, attempting to draw his attention and create an opportunity for Yu Qiushui.

Yu Qiushui then flashed, appearing like a ghost on the other side of the formation. His eyes were fixed on the God Lord, and he secretly planned to launch a fatal attack on Liu Jun as soon as the God Lord left the vicinity of the formation.

However, how could Cat Brother, who controlled the body of the deity, be fooled? He had already seen through Yu Qiushui's intentions.

Cat Brother controlled the God, his figure moving like a ghost, first chasing after Peng Sheng and Liu Yuan, causing the two of them to turn around and run away.

But Cat Brother suddenly changed his strategy. Instead of pursuing, he controlled the body of the God Lord and turned around abruptly, returning like a bolt of lightning and directly blocking Yu Qiushui's path.

This sudden action left the three people present completely stunned.

"What's going on?" Liu Yuan and Peng Sheng both wondered at the same time.

Wasn't the God Lord already insane? Shouldn't it have a deep-seated hatred for Liu Jun? But the way the God Lord is acting right now, it's like it's protecting Liu Jun.
Yu Qiushui's expression also turned serious. He stared at the deity before him, his heart filled with confusion: What exactly was this mad beast's soul up to? Why did it suddenly change its strategy and turn to protect Liu Jun?
At this moment, the entire scene reached a stalemate. The God's towering figure stood like an insurmountable mountain, blocking Yu Qiushui and Liu Jun's path.

Cat Brother, through the eyes of the deity, coldly gazed at everyone present, looking at them with the eyes of someone looking at idiots, as if mocking their ignorance and stupidity.

Now, Yu Qiushui, Liu Yuan, and Peng Cheng were all deeply confused. Their original plan was to lure the God away and then take the opportunity to kill Liu Jun.

However, reality was far crueler than they had imagined—not only was the deity not successfully lured away, but he also stood in their way, plunging them into an insurmountable predicament.
