Gods: Start with Goblins

. "Thank you, Luo Dan."

There was a hint of gratitude in Qilin's voice.

"You made me understand that only by uniting together can we defeat a powerful enemy. From now on, I will never help the tyrants to commit atrocities again."

When Luo Dan heard this, he felt relieved.

He knew that Qilin had finally come to his senses and rediscovered his faith and pursuits.

This battle also deepened their friendship.

"Forget it, forget it. If you can't figure it out, I understand. After all, everyone has their own obsessions and confusions."

Luo Dan looked at the Qilin in front of him, with a bit of helplessness and sigh in his tone, "But if you continue to act recklessly, it will not be a good thing. This will not only harm yourself, but also implicate innocent people."

Qilin gritted his teeth and stared at Luo Dan, as if he wanted to find out some answers from him. He was not afraid of Luo Dan's threats at all, because he knew that he had no way to retreat.

"Luo Dan, you don't have to pretend here." Qilin sneered, with a bit of disdain in his voice, "Who do you think you are? Can you decide my fate? I tell you, I, Qilin, will never be manipulated by others. Even if I die, I will die gloriously!"

Luo Dan frowned upon hearing this. He knew that Qilin had been blinded by evil thoughts and would not listen to any advice. However, he was still unwilling to give up, because he believed that there was still a trace of kindness and justice in Qilin's heart.

"Qilin, you are wrong." Luo Dan's voice became serious. "I am not trying to decide your fate. I just hope you can turn back from your wrong path and stop being used by the evil cultivators. You have great power and potential, which should be used to protect this land and its people, rather than becoming a puppet of the evil cultivators."

. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

However, Qilin just looked at Luo Dan coldly and said nothing more. He turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly felt a strong spiritual fluctuation.

The atmosphere in the air instantly dropped to freezing point, as if even breathing had become difficult. The sword energy in Luo Dan's hand became more and more fierce, and he could hardly fully control this power. He knew that this was because of the anger and worry deep in his heart.

"Qilin, if you don't turn back, don't blame me for being rude!" Luo Dan's voice was filled with anger and determination. He drew his sword and pointed it at Qilin's back.

At this moment, a black gas suddenly descended from the sky, making crackling sounds. It tore a large hole in the sky, as if it was trying to escape. Seeing this, Luo Dan immediately swung his sword to cut it. His sword energy was so powerful that it instantly dissipated most of the black gas.

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

The evil cultivator looked at Luo Dan, with a flash of astonishment and anger in his eyes. He had never expected that Luo Dan could break his attack so easily.

"Luo Dan, how dare you ruin my good deeds!" The evil cultivator roared, his voice full of endless resentment and hatred, "I will never let you go!"

Luo Dan sneered and went forward fearlessly. He knew that this battle was inevitable. And he had already made full preparations.

"Evil cultivator, you have committed many evil deeds. Today is your end!" Luo Dan's voice was firm and resolute. He swung his sword and started a fierce battle with the evil cultivator.

During the battle, Luo Dan's sword energy was like a rainbow, and every swing of the sword seemed to tear the sky apart. The evil cultivator was not to be outdone, and he released bursts of black energy in an attempt to devour Luo Dan.

However, Luo Dan relied on his great strength and firm belief to dissolve the evil cultivator's attacks time and time again. His sword energy became more and more fierce, as if he wanted to completely destroy the evil cultivator.

Finally, in a fierce collision, the evil cultivator was hit by Luo Dan's sword energy and flew backwards like a kite with a broken string. He vomited blood, was seriously injured, and could no longer fight.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Luo Dan watched the evil cultivator fall to the ground, and a sense of victory surged in his heart. He knew that although this battle was difficult, he finally defeated the powerful enemy with his own strength and faith.

At this time, Qilin also came over. He looked at Luo Dan, with a complicated look in his eyes. He knew that his previous behavior was indeed a bit excessive, but he couldn't control his heart.

"Luo Dan, thank you." Qilin's voice was filled with gratitude and guilt. "It was my fault. I shouldn't have continued to act recklessly. In the future, I will reflect on my actions and work hard to become a better person."

Luo Dan was relieved when he heard this. He knew that Qilin finally realized his mistake and decided to correct it. And this battle also deepened their friendship.

"A mere ant can actually hurt me, how despicable, you are looking for death!" Luo Dan was disdainful, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes. He quickly dodged the opponent's attack, while controlling the sword in his hand, and swung it out again, the sword energy was like a dragon, pointing directly at the evil cultivator.

The evil cultivator snorted coldly, obviously not taking Luo Dan's provocation seriously. She had been prepared for this, and she stretched out her hand and easily blocked Luo Dan's spiritual energy with one hand. The surging power seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier and was instantly bounced back.

"Hmph, do you think you can hurt me like this?" The evil cultivator sneered, his voice filled with endless sarcasm.

The next second, the aura within a hundred miles was instantly shattered, replaced by the spiritual energy that the evil cultivators had burst out. The spiritual energy swept in like a violent storm, causing everything around to tremble. Luo Dan was also inevitably impacted, and he swayed and almost fell to the ground.

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

When the people from other sects saw this scene, their faces instantly turned ugly. Although they knew that the evil cultivators were powerful, they had never expected them to be so terrifying. At this moment, they finally understood why Luo Dan had asked them to leave first. It turned out that he wanted to protect them from harm.

"Luo Dan, you..." An elder of a sect hesitated. He wanted to say something but didn't know how to start. Luo Dan didn't talk to them at all. He was concentrating on dealing with the attacks of the evil cultivators. He knew that the enemy he faced this time was different from the past. He was a true god-level master. Every move and every attack contained destructive power.

"Evil cultivator, don't be so arrogant!" Luo Dan roared, and he swung his sword again. The sword energy was like a rainbow, pointing directly at the evil cultivator's vital points.

The evil cultivator sneered. She dodged Luo Dan's attack easily and counterattacked: "Luo Dan, do you think you can hurt me? Let me tell you, I am a god-level master. Your attack is just a piece of cake for me."

“So what if I’m a god-level venerable?” Luo Dan gritted his teeth and said, “Although I am not your opponent, I will never give up easily!”

As he spoke, Luo Dan swung his sword again, his sword energy becoming more and more fierce, as if he wanted to completely destroy the evil cultivator. However, the evil cultivator was always able to dodge easily, and his counterattack became more and more fierce.

The battle lasted for a whole day and night, and both sides were exhausted. Luo Dan knew that if he continued like this, he would be destroyed by the evil cultivator sooner or later. So he decided to use his unique skill - Luo Dan Divine Sword Technique.

"Evil cultivator, take it!" Luo Dan roared, his whole body surging with spiritual energy, and his sword energy was like a rainbow, pointing directly at the evil cultivator. The sword energy seemed to split the sky and the earth, carrying endless pressure and destructive power.

. . . . . . . . . . .

When the evil cultivator saw this scene, a trace of astonishment flashed in her eyes. She didn't expect that Luo Dan actually had such a powerful skill. However, she was not afraid, because she also had her own trump card.

"Luo Dan, do you think your sword skills can hurt me?" The evil cultivator sneered, and black energy surged all over her body, as if it wanted to swallow up everything around her. The black energy was filled with endless resentment and hatred, as if it wanted to completely destroy Luo Dan.

The two sides once again engaged in a fierce battle, the sword energy and the black energy intertwined, as if they were going to tear the heaven and earth apart. Everything around them trembled, as if it could not withstand this powerful force.

Finally, in a fierce collision, the evil cultivator was hit by Luo Dan's sword energy and flew backwards like a kite with a broken string. She vomited blood, was seriously injured, and could no longer fight.

Luo Dan watched the evil cultivator fall to the ground, and a surge of joy of victory surged in his heart. He knew that although this battle was difficult, he finally defeated the powerful enemy with his own strength and faith. When the people from other sects saw this scene, they also cheered, and they were proud of Luo Dan's victory.

After the battle, Luo Dan walked up to the evil cultivator and looked at her dying, with mixed emotions in his heart. He knew that although the evil cultivator was hateful, she was also one of the victims. So, he decided to give her a chance to reform.

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

"Evil cultivator, although you have committed many evil deeds, I can give you a chance to reform." Luo Dan's voice was full of majesty and compassion. "As long as you are willing to let go of hatred and resentment and start a new life, I can spare your life."

When Xie Xiu heard this, a trace of astonishment and gratitude flashed in her eyes. She knew that this was the last chance Luo Dan gave her. So she nodded, indicating that she was willing to turn over a new leaf.

From then on, with the help of Luodan, the evil cultivator gradually let go of his hatred and resentment and became a new man. Luodan also continued to protect the peace and justice of this land, becoming a hero and legend in the hearts of the people.

He was obviously willing to admit defeat, and faced with the tremendous pressure released by the evil cultivator, he couldn't help but feel a little powerless. He knew that with his own strength, staying here would only become a burden to Luo Dan, so it would be better to leave quickly, at least to preserve some combat power, and perhaps to make a difference in the future.

The disciples of several sects reacted very quickly. They exchanged glances and understood each other's intentions. In a battle of this level, these cultivators who had not even reached the level of demigods could not intervene at all. Staying here would only increase casualties.

"Hurry up and leave!" an elder of the sect shouted anxiously, "We are no match for this level of evil cultivator. There is no point in staying here. We might as well evacuate quickly to avoid losing our lives."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone responded. They gritted their teeth, performed their own escape techniques, turned into streams of light, and fled into the distance. They knew that staying here would only lead to death, and only by leaving could they save their lives.

He stood there, watching everyone leave, and couldn't help but feel an indescribable bitterness in his heart. He knew that he was not strong enough to provide much help to Luo Dan in this battle, but he still gritted his teeth unwillingly.

After performing the last righteousness, he looked at Luo Dan deeply, his eyes full of complicated emotions. He knew that from now on, this battle had nothing to do with him. All he could do was stay away and pray that Luo Dan would win.

"Let's go. We will only be a burden to Luodan if we stay here." He whispered, as if he was persuading himself, or as if he was talking to the people around him.

However, the people around him had long disappeared, and they had all made the wisest choice - leaving. He smiled bitterly, turned around and prepared to leave, but at this moment, he saw a familiar figure.

. . . . . . . . . . .

That was Pei Sheng, who was looking back at Luo Dan, his eyes gleaming with determination. He knew that Pei Sheng, like himself, knew the consequences of staying here. But they also knew that the only thing they could do now was to pray that Luo Dan could win this battle.

"Pei Sheng, you should go too." He whispered, with a hint of helplessness and bitterness in his voice.

Pei Sheng glanced at him, nodded, and said nothing more. He knew that it was too late to say anything now, and the wisest choice was to leave as soon as possible. So he gritted his teeth, turned around and left, turning into a stream of light and disappearing into the sky.

He stood there, watching Pei Sheng's back as he left, and an indescribable feeling of loneliness and powerlessness surged in his heart. He knew that from now on, he could only watch this battle from afar and could not participate in it.

. . . . . . . .

He took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions. Then, he turned and left, turning into a stream of light and escaping into the distance. At the moment of leaving, he prayed silently in his heart: "Luo Dan, you must win! Otherwise, we will really be finished."

With his departure, only Luo Dan and Xie Xiu were left on the battlefield. The battle between them continued, and the fierce collision of spiritual energy and the roar resounded through the sky, as if it was going to tear the world apart.

Although the people in the distance had left the battlefield, their hearts were still filled with worry and anxiety. They knew that the outcome of this battle would determine their future and fate. Therefore, they could only pray silently, hoping that Luodan could defeat the evil cultivator and protect the tranquility and peace of this land. (End of this chapter)
