The evil witch BOSS just wants to develop in a low-key manner

Chapter 281 The Hunt of the Ancient Gods
Driven by the ancient divine incantation, the emerald green ancient divine power transformed into wooden vines.

Moreover, it was covered with vines containing all sorts of eerie, shadowy, long-armed giant hands.

"Bang bang bang..."

When Zorn's Hand of the Ancient God struck, the eerie, shadowy long arms and giant hands on the vines exploded, transforming into a torrent of shadows that bloomed on the Hand of the Ancient God.

Then a "click-click" sound followed.

The ancient god's hand rapidly disintegrated under the ancient god's curse of ancient divine power.

Although, the Hand of the Ancients, Zorn, did not use his full strength.

However, it was easily dismembered by the other party, and the huge difference in their abilities made Lin Yuan secretly gasp.

"It seems that Belial is stronger than I thought."

Despite thinking this, Zorn's counterattack did not stop at all.

As soon as the hand of the ancient god was shattered, several enormous ancient lightning bolts roared.

"Click..."

"Click..."

The lightning struck the lush green vines, shattering some of the outer leaves.

But it had no effect whatsoever on the creeping vines that were swimming towards them.

A superior god versus an ancient god.

That kind of damage is exactly like scraping.

Zorn naturally understood this principle as well.

But at this moment, the more he fought and battled against this ancient god, the faster and more his ancient holy marks catalyzed.

Every extra point gained in the fight is a huge profit.

Seeing that these ancient divine spells were not having much effect.

Zorn's superior divine power surged into the vast black mist of calamity behind him.

"rustle……"

"rustle……"

"rustle……"

Three enormous insect kings slowly swam out.

"The Triple-Phase Insect King Curse? This guy actually cultivated the Triple-Phase Insect King Curse, and he didn't even die from being eaten by it."

Three insect kings with bodies resembling the night sky and stars appeared behind Zorn.

Even the ancient god Belial was slightly taken aback.

The Insect King Curse of the Disaster Court has always been renowned, yet very few people have cultivated it to an extremely high level.

Firstly, the Insect King Curse is extremely prone to backlash against cultivators, and the higher the level, the more likely it is to backlash; even gods are no exception.

Secondly, although it has a terrifying reputation as the Insect King Curse in history, and even in the ancient god circles.

However, even though this Insect King Curse has been cultivated to a high level, its power seems to be quite ordinary.

It seems that the Insect King's Curse is a name that is undeserved.

However, this time, the extraordinary evil god Zorn pulled out the Tripartite Insect King Curse, which made the newly promoted Shadow Ancient God Belial take it seriously.

rustle……

The Three-Headed Insect King's Curse spread rapidly, instantly intertwining with the shadow vines of the ancient god Belial.

Click... click...

The Insect King's Curse suddenly bit down, and the power of the starry sky instantly tore apart the outer part of the Shadow Vines.

The momentum of the shadow vines was actually slightly blocked by the Three-Headed Insect King's Curse.

Upon seeing this, the smile on the face of the ancient god of shadow, Belial, froze slightly.

The vast difference between the superior gods and the ancient gods meant that the superior gods were no match for the ancient gods.

Although the shadow vines were just an ordinary attack from him, they were blocked by the evil god Zorn.

On the one hand, it made him lose face a little.

On the other hand, this vine contains special techniques.

Once this attack is used to annihilate the evil god Zorn, it will surely trap him here.

The other ancient gods confronted each other, leaving the ancient gods of the Disaster Court unable to provide support.

He used that special ancient method to completely destroy the evil god Zorn.

However, at this moment, the evil god Zorn blocked his vines with his strange Insect King Curse.

"So what if you block it? You're still going to die."

With this thought in mind, Belial quickly poured more ancient divine power into the ancient god's incantation, and even mobilized the cosmic pressure.

He originally thought that killing the evil god Zorn wouldn't require the use of cosmic pressure, a method exclusive to ancient gods.

But at this point, there was no time to worry about that anymore.

The Three-Headed Insect King's Curse had just forced the shadow vines to a stop, and even tore off a considerable amount of shadow power.

"Rumble..."

The terrifying power of cosmic pressure pressed down like a landslide.

The Three-Headed Insect King Curse was also drawn into the terrifying cosmic pressure by the Shadow Vines, and the Insect King Curse sequence was cracking, as if it was about to break apart.

Faced with this destructive power, Zorn showed neither fear nor attempt to flee.

Instead, they calmly face the impending death.

boom--

The devastating ancient shockwave transformed into an endless shadow storm.

The entire world was plunged into an endless dimension of shadow.

Zorn's divine body, the projection of the Tree of Laws, the Insect King's Curse, and a large number of ancient heroic spirits were all destroyed in this attack.

The many high-ranking gods watching from afar, even though they had taken precautions and the attack was not directed at them.

But when the dissipating storm swept in, their projection of the Tree of Laws still swayed precariously under the onslaught of terrifying waves.

Several high-ranking gods couldn't hold on any longer, and the projection of the Tree of Laws was directly blown away by the aftershocks of the ancient gods' power.

"Destroying higher-level gods with a mere gesture—that is the ancient god!"

At this moment, all the high-ranking gods showed expressions of shock and envy.

It is also eternal.

The ordinary eternity of higher gods and the high-quality eternity of ancient gods are different from each other.

After easily annihilating the evil god Zorn.

The ancient god of shadows, Belial, was not in a hurry and simply waited quietly.

This time, the three top ancient god powerhouses of their Emerald Kingdom specially mobilized the power of the "Cosmic Cage".

It can completely lock a world within a cosmic cage.

The effect will be particularly good in this independent astral zone.

Once this astral region is sealed off with a cosmic cage.

Therefore, within an independent universe, even if the evil god Zorn had the power to resurrect, he would find it difficult to escape.

Just to be on the safe side.

This time, the Emerald Kingdom even used the ancient artifact, the Chains of Death.

The ancient artifact with the "Ancient Death Chains" property can further imprison the dead soul of the evil god Zorn after killing him, preventing him from being resurrected.

A moment later, the ancient god of shadows, Belial, frowned slightly.

Logically speaking, Zorn should have been resurrected as well.

But there was no sign of Zorn at this moment.

He gently grabbed me from behind.

He grabbed the ancient artifact, the Chains of Death, which had been nurtured in the shadows.

The Grim Reaper's scythe, woven from pure death energy, carries seemingly endless chains of death.

With the scythe in hand, the chains of death began to crisscross densely around him.

Beria grasped the chains of death slightly and lifted them up.

"Crash..."

The surrounding vines flowed in a complex yet orderly manner.

Although some heroic spirits were imprisoned within, the evil god Zorn did not appear.

It was as if... utterly dead.

Even if someone is completely dead, they should still have a soul. But at this moment, there is no trace of the evil god.

Beria's expression shifted between light and dark.

Immediately, Belial swiftly swept across the entire world trapped in the "Cosmic Cage" with cosmic pressure, searching every meticulous corner for traces of the evil god Zorn.

But no matter how meticulously he searched, he never found any trace of the evil god or its dead soul.

"So the evil god Zorn just escaped like that?"

This time, the Jade Kingdom joined forces with the ancient gods of the two kingdoms, and also used the core projection power of the two ancient gods and an ancient artifact.

Most importantly, the power of the most core cosmic cage was also used.

After confidently declaring his intention to kill the evil god Zorn once at the beginning, there was no follow-up.

After a moment's thought, Belial, refusing to believe in such things, immediately used the ancient artifact, the Chains of Death, to extract the souls of the dead within the dimension of death, checking whether Zorn was hiding deep within the dimension of death.

After all, Zorn was an evil god, and he might be hiding in the depths of death.

The eighteen high-ranking gods watched as the ancient god tried various methods to capture the evil god Zorn.

At this moment, they all looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Although the evil god Zorn has the power of resurrection, he shouldn't be able to remain in a state of death for so long in front of an ancient god!"

"Could it be... that the evil god Zorn escaped?"

"Escaped? That's unlikely. The ancient god contacted us this time, which clearly indicates they were prepared. For the evil god Zorn to escape without any preparation is simply too much..."

"Hmph! Don't you guys understand yet? With Zorn's abilities, he has most likely already escaped. Otherwise, that ancient god wouldn't be so furious as to unleash his cosmic pressure to plunder the entire astral region."

"They escaped? This was a trap set by the ancient gods and powerful beings, that Zorn..."

As the high-ranking deities exchanged words, their voices grew deeper and deeper.

The pressure of confronting the evil god Zorn is already increasing.

Finally, ancient gods joined forces to kill Zorn.

If this attempt to eliminate them fails...

In the time to come, the evil god Zorn will only become more and more arrogant.

Their kingdom will only face a furious counterattack from the evil god Zorn.

After employing several methods and conducting repeated investigations more than a dozen times.

The ancient god of shadows, Belial, gritted his teeth, his heart filled with resentment and frustration.

Their plan to kill the evil god Zorn failed after only taking the first step.

The evil god Zorn ran away.

Even though Berial was unwilling, he was helpless at this moment.

After surveying the surroundings, Belial finally sighed, gathered his forces, and began to retreat.

This is the border of Stardust Plateau; it is not advisable to linger here.

"Lady Evelo Dia, the evil god Zorn has escaped."

"Ran?"

At this moment, Evelyn Dia, who was waiting for good news, felt a slight stirring in her heart.

"Yes, I deployed the Cosmic Cage and even used the ancient artifact [Chains of Death] to kill the evil god Zorn, but he still escaped through resurrection."

"The methods we've prepared don't seem to be working very well against that evil god Zorn."

The ancient god of shadows, Belial, spoke with a tone full of frustration.

Even though this hunt ended in failure.

But Aphrodite Diaz didn't show much regret.

"A safe retreat is fine; we can discuss everything in detail after we get back."

"Yes, Lady Evero."

…………

"Huh? They retreated?"

Above the starry sky, the three ancient gods of the Disaster Court, who were facing off, felt a slight stirring in their hearts after noticing the dissipation of the ancient god projection from the Emerald Kingdom.

At the same time, the four ancient gods from the opposing nations also withdrew their immense power and returned to the Tree of Laws.

But at this moment, the three ancient gods of the Disaster Court turned grim.

This time, the enemy suppressed them, and Zorn made his move.

They were furious, but there was nothing they could do.

After all, no matter what, the power of the Disaster Court among the ancient gods was still difficult to match that of these three major forces.

and.

The power of the hidden wasteland arrived belatedly.

It's likely that the hidden wasteland wouldn't want to see their Disaster Court dominate the Stardust Plateau.

After all, the Disaster Court is about to occupy the entire plateau, and several more ancient gods will inevitably be born.

When that time comes, the Disaster Court will be a vast kingdom comparable to the Emerald Kingdom and the Hidden Wasteland.

This is something the Hidden Wasteland would not want to see either.

The three of them naturally understood the reasoning behind this.

Although I was furious, there was nothing I could do.

How is Zorn?

Antisum looked at Eduardo Perseus and asked urgently.

After carefully examining Zorn's projection within the Starry Sky Ancient Temple, the Dark Ancient God Eduardo Perseus finally spoke.

"Zorn is unharmed. It seems that the Emerald Kingdom's attempt to kill him has failed."

"Go and ask around to see what the specific situation is over there."

"Ok!"

A moment later, the dark ancient god Eduardo looked at the other two ancient gods.

"Zorn didn't respond. I don't know if he's injured or... if there's something else going on."

Upon hearing this, the other two ancient gods' expressions immediately darkened slightly.

"Let's not rush things. Let's wait for Zorn to recover for a while before we talk about it."

Looking towards the location of the Cataclysmic Temple where Zorn's projection was located, Antisum examined it for a moment before speaking slowly.

…………

Deep within the Starry Sky Ancient Insect Path lies a place of profound darkness and silence, imbued with endless spatial pressure.

After being resurrected, Zorn seemed to be suppressed and sealed, unable to move.

Zorn was only able to move after casting the Devouring Insect King Curse, enveloping his body in the cursed insect form.

He felt that he only had about one-fifth of his strength after being resurrected.

"call……"

Zorn let out a soft breath.

"Although the power of resurrection is quite good, the divine power of the superior gods is too profound."

"If you want to revive and escape quickly, you can only give up a portion of your divine power and recover slowly."

Zorn then looked toward the Astral Void.

"You think you can kill me with those methods? You underestimate me."

During his confrontation with the ancient god Belial, Zorn used the power of the Starry Sky Ancient Insect Path to detect the power of several ancient artifacts and related ancient forces that Belial had hidden.

When Zorn attacked that Star Sector, he had already devoured the Starry Sky Insect Path using the Insect King Curse and used the power of the Ancient Starry Sky Insect Path to conceal it.

After being killed, Zorn immediately revived and escaped through the Star Trek Path that he had dug beforehand.

Despite the slight danger of being hunted by the ancient gods, Zorn managed to escape.

"We lost a lot of divine power during this escape, so there is no need for us to go out for the next period of time."

“The ancient gods have already set their sights on me. If they attack me again, it will surely be with swift and decisive force.”

"Before we further refine the Starry Sky Ancient Insect Dao, we cannot easily go out."

"I will recover my divine power here, and at the same time, I will cultivate in seclusion for a long time."

"At the very least, we can only leave after we have the ability to conquer all five regions."

"Moreover, this time we can carefully catalyze the ancient holy marks."

"I escaped the ancient gods' hunt, and it happened during my ritual. This wave will definitely catalyze the emergence of a large number of ancient holy marks."

“Now, every ancient war waged against me becomes a source of strength for me.”
