The devil descended from the sky, and his fists suppressed the mountains and rivers

Chapter 344 The Four Leaders' Profound Skills Are Truly Exceptional (Part 1)
Under the watchful eyes of various forces around the world, the fighter jet carrying Yi Beidou seemed to have grown a pair of jade-like wings, which flapped continuously, allowing the fuselage to constantly adjust and counteract the inertia and airflow of the descent.

With Yi Beidou's help, Wang Han restarted the plane. Although most of the electronic equipment had malfunctioned, Wang Han's flying skills were beyond doubt. Moreover, with the guidance of the other wingmen in the group, Wang Han was able to continue according to the original plan.

"It actually took off again. Did Yi Beidou adjust the aircraft's flight attitude in the air? The extent to which that force affected reality was beyond imagination. In other words, its power was probably far beyond our original expectations."

"What exactly did Yi Beidou just experience? From beginning to end, all we could observe was a giant hand reaching out from the clouds, but the actual confrontation was certainly not that simple."

"Damn it, have we reached the point where we can't even understand the truth when we fight against it?"

"."

Intelligence agencies in various countries are completely in the dark about the situation; the existing intelligence is simply insufficient to analyze the truth of the matter, but the hidden forces are very clear about it.

"It's likely that an extremely powerful spiritual cultivator has made a move, otherwise Yi Beidou wouldn't be behaving so strangely. But who exactly is it? And how many are there? We can't tell. The methods of spiritual cultivators are too secretive."

“It was definitely not just one person who made the move. After all, given the example of the Illumination Sect, they wouldn’t have acted without absolute certainty. And those who made the move must have been the most outstanding spiritual cultivators of the time, launching a silent surprise attack from that long river.”

"Even top-tier spiritual cultivators have failed? Even we would likely perish facing such an attack, let alone high in the heavens? Has this person become so invincible?"

"."

The more one learns about the ancient existence within the hidden organizations, the more shocking it becomes.

Yi Beidou's every move is constantly redefining their understanding.

Soon, the ominous suspicions previously raised by the various secretive organizations were confirmed.

Yi Beidou's destination was indeed Gibraltar, where the Fengshen Alliance was located!

It seems that Donghua's secret cooperation with the Investiture of the Gods Alliance is already a fait accompli.

What surprised all those in hiding the most was the attitude of the Fengshen Alliance.

When will these stubborn guys ever learn to change? That's not a good sign.

For the remainder of the journey, Yi Beidou and his companions encountered no further attacks. However, amidst this calm, various clandestine forces began to accelerate their covert contacts, and some previously irreconcilable issues of interest were quickly resolved.

Everyone knows that things have progressed to this point, and obtaining what one wants in the final battle is not something that can be accomplished by one person alone.

Gibraltar, Cuenca Building.

The area was deserted, with no vehicles or pedestrians in sight, as if it were a ghost town.

With the situation having developed to this point, many things are no longer secrets, and some hidden existences can no longer be completely concealed.

Moreover, there is a high probability that a world-shaking battle will soon take place in Gibraltar. The Fengshen Alliance does not want to involve too many ordinary people. Therefore, under the operation of the local authorities, the people in the ten-kilometer area around the Cuenca Building have been temporarily evacuated and replaced by local military personnel.

Normally, the Cuenca Building is always bustling with people, but it always seems rather deserted. But today is different.

The entrance to the Cuenca Building was crowded with people of all races, ages and appearances, but they all naturally exuded a powerful aura.

Such a person, if placed in the secular world, would be enough to dominate a region with his own skills; there would be very few like him among millions.

These people are all those who have been granted divine titles.

The auras of dozens of beings comparable to those who had achieved physical sainthood merged together, and the surrounding air was filled with a seven-colored halo.

Standing in front of everyone were five figures.

An elderly white man, leaning on a cane, was in good spirits and dressed as a Western gentleman.

A person's head was wrapped in gauze, obscuring their face; their body was thin and hunched, like a candle flickering in the wind.

A beautiful woman with smiling eyes, fiery red lips, and captivating gaze.

A burly man, as tall as an iron tower, with downcast eyes and a taciturn demeanor.

The other person was Long Yichen, who had returned from the eastern Mediterranean.

These five individuals are the current supreme leaders of the Five Lineages of the Investiture of the Gods, powerful beings at the Heavenly Lord level.

Behind them were many figures, some familiar and some not, including Yi Beidou and the others.

The Heavenly Generals Zeno and Hua Yuanhang, who were once defeated by Yi Beidou and others, as well as Cheng Zhihong, Yuna, and others, and Carlos and Qin Yuan, whom they had never met but almost stumbled when they removed the Demon-Subduing Seven Star Needles set up by Yi Beidou.

These people all had somewhat complicated expressions at this moment.

The fact that the five leaders of the five lineages of the Investiture of the Gods, along with numerous heavenly generals, simultaneously went out to greet an outsider is probably unprecedented even in the long history of the Investiture of the Gods.

It's hard to believe that the man they didn't value before has gained such influence in such a short time.

Just like his sudden emergence, he dominated the world in just a few years.

Even they had to admit that he was a man who created miracles, and regardless of whether their paths were aligned or whether there were past grievances, they should all be given the respect they deserved.

In the midst of the calm wait, several figures flashed between the tall buildings at an extremely fast speed, and soon arrived in front of the group, descending from the sky.

It was the Donghua martial arts masters led by Yi Beidou.

"I've kept you waiting."

Yi Beidou's gaze swept across the faces of everyone in the Fengshen Alliance.

The seven-colored haze of light that filled the sky trembled slightly, as if it were about to shatter.

As one of the best among the Heavenly Generals, Carlos subconsciously lowered his gaze when Yi Beidou's eyes swept over him, not daring to meet his gaze. However, he quickly came back to his senses and observed the others around him, discovering that the other Gods Conferred were doing the same thing. Some even lowered their heads when Yi Beidou was looking at them.

This terrifying and domineering invisible pressure is simply unbelievable; just how powerful is this person?

"Welcome, Mr. Yi and everyone from Donghua. Please follow me to the conference room to discuss important matters."

Long Yichen stepped forward, smiled, and addressed Yi Beidou and the others, gesturing for them to proceed.

However, Yi Beidou did not move. He remained standing in place, his expression calm, his gaze focused on the five leaders of the Five Investiture of the Gods.

For a moment, the surrounding air seemed to freeze, and even the scenery seemed to distort slightly. An almost tangible sense of oppression permeated the air, instantly tensing the minds of everyone present.

"We can discuss the matter later. When I came here, I heard that some people wanted to test me. Perfect timing, I also want to test them and see if they are qualified to cooperate with me. After we finish this, it's not too late to discuss the rest."

Yi Beidou said calmly.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the many deities present changed.

They treated him with courtesy, so why was this person acting this way? Was he there to cooperate, or did he have other motives?

Yi Beidou's "rude" behavior immediately ignited anger in the hearts of many who were enshrined as gods, and various auras subtly increased.

For a moment, the silence seemed to be thick with the smell of gunpowder.

Those who are conferred the title of gods are an arrogant group; once their anger is ignited, it is not easily quelled.

“Young man, you do have courage, but you don’t need to be like that. Our abilities are not like yours. We cannot use them lightly unless it is a critical moment, because that would be disrespectful to our ancestors.”

In the ensuing silence, the elderly gentleman with the cane suddenly chuckled, seemingly having seen through Yi Beidou's plan. He intended to use provocation to force them to use their full strength under the weight of public anger, leaving them no room for restraint, and thus allowing them to experience their true abilities.

Just as the intelligence report stated, this person indeed acts with ruthlessness and audacity, without any restraint.

Upon hearing the gentleman's words, the other leaders of the Investiture of the Gods understood and looked at Yi Beidou with slightly complicated expressions.

However, although the gentlemanly old man said this, the seeds of anger had already been sown in everyone's hearts, and it could not be quelled so easily with just a few words.

If they really don't respond, the other deities might become dissatisfied.

Upon seeing this, the gentleman sighed, reached into his pocket, and seemed to slightly fiddle with something.

In an instant, the anger in the eyes of all the other deities, except for the five leaders, miraculously disappeared.

In a daze, Yi Beidou felt that the expressions on everyone's faces were exactly the same as before he uttered that provocative remark.

It was as if he had never said those words before.

Without a sound, the gentlemanly old man seemed to have done something.

Yi Beidou narrowed his eyes slightly. What kind of ability was this? It seemed somewhat similar to Ding Huiyuan's Mantra Technique, which influenced the subconscious mind of life?
This made him even more curious about the abilities of the other leaders of the Investiture of the Gods.

The fact that Long Yichen possesses "Dragon Essence" demonstrates that the leader of the Investiture of the Gods is no ordinary person.

"Alright, everyone, please follow me."

The gentlemanly old man acted as if nothing had happened and turned to walk into the Cuenca Building.

The other four leaders of the Investiture of the Gods and the other Investiture of the Gods followed closely behind.

However, this time the gentlemanly old man did not head towards the conference room, but instead led everyone towards the underground space of the Cuenca Building.

"Is Mr. Durand taking us to the training ground? According to the original plan, shouldn't we go to the conference room first? I feel like I've forgotten something?"

A hint of doubt appeared on Qin Yuan's beautiful face.

"It's Mr. Durand's stopwatch. It seems something unpleasant must have happened just now."

Carlos seemed to understand something, and his expression changed slightly.

Fortunately, few people knew about Mr. Durand's abilities. Even if others had some doubts, they assumed that the change was something they had already agreed upon, since none of the leaders said anything.

Soon, the group arrived at the basement of the Cuenca Building. It was a very spacious underground space with a ceiling height of at least 20 meters. The walls were made of metal and looked incredibly sturdy, probably a super shelter capable of withstanding the highest level of nuclear attack.

The two sides stood opposite each other.

“Mr. Yi, since you are interested in sparring first, we will naturally not disappoint you. You have already experienced the Dragon Chief’s supernatural abilities, so the remaining four of us will take turns to learn from you.”

Mr. Durand said with a smile.

"Durant, you talk too much nonsense."

Just then, an old voice interrupted Durand's words. The hunched old man with his head wrapped in gauze stepped out and stood in front of the crowd.

“Kid, some things, even if Durand has ‘reverted’ them, are not easily forgotten. You’d better be able to bear the consequences.”

"Don't blame me if you die."

As the old man with the gauze was speaking, he reached out and lifted the white gauze wrapped around his face.

This white veil was clearly no ordinary object; it had some mottled stains resembling bloodstains on it, exuding an ancient aura and seemingly possessing extremely strong sealing power.

Upon seeing this, the other deities' expressions immediately changed, and they hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to look at the old man's face under the gauze, as if it were a terrifying thing.

"Dietru".

Durand whispered from behind.

He was well aware of Ditru's strength. This person came from the "Rebirth Domain," one of the Five Lineages of the Investiture of the Gods. In terms of both seniority and cultivation, he was among the strongest of the leaders of the Five Lineages of the Investiture of the Gods.

Moreover, as the leader of the Rebirth Domain, Dietru's strength does not come solely from himself.

"Don't worry, I know what to do."

Dieter said calmly.

As the bandage on his head was removed, a dazzling light burst forth. His entire head was covered with countless runes of inexplicable meaning. These runes were not carved on, but rather grew directly from his twisted flesh.

It was a terrifying face, covered with various radiant, fleshy runes.

As the gauze covering half of Dieteru's face was removed, the terrible effects began to unfold.

The hems of the clothes of the people around them slowly fluttered up, and the dust on the ground rose into the air in the radiance.

Zhou Qingchen and the others stood aside, not looking away like the gods, but staring directly at each other's faces, and were all strongly affected.

Their vision began to distort and blur, their brains roared and vibrated, and they heard frantic whispers in their ears.

This forces them to activate their own life magnetic field and use their respective meditation techniques to calm their minds and concentrate their thoughts to counteract this influence.

"Pure mental power can actually reach this level?!"

Zhou Qingchen couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

This is already at the level of being able to interfere with reality and move objects with just one's thoughts, not to mention its impact on living organisms.

The mere, naturally emanating pressure was enough to drive people insane and drive them mad, making them feel as if they were some legendary deity, impossible to look directly at.

Even Ding Huiyuan, who was deeply involved in spiritual cultivation, showed surprise in his eyes.

He had witnessed such immense mental power before, but not in the mortal world, but within the Sumeru Realm.

At that time, he climbed to the top of Mount Ling and saw many Arhats and Bodhisattvas, but he only felt a similar oppression from the few Buddhas sitting on the highest throne.

"The human brain cannot withstand such a massive amount of mental energy. Is it similar to Long Yichen's state?"

Yi Beidou remained calm, staring directly at the other person's ferocious face covered in blood and flesh runes.

Long Yichen's "Dragon Essence" is a power that the human body cannot withstand. Only when he is in the state of Heavenly Monarch's descent, his body is connected with a certain peculiar power and has completed a certain degree of evolution, can he use his moves.

Dieter's current situation seems similar.

Suddenly, Yi Beidou seemed to have some associations.

The great spiritual master who founded Buddhism left behind a very strange image for posterity. His hair bun on his head looked like it was made up of spheres, a form that no normal human could achieve. This is also considered to be one of the thirty-two marks of the Buddha.

Looking back now, perhaps that was a trace of supernatural transformation, an incredible change born to maximize one's spiritual power.
