Infinite Gods Reign Supreme

Chapter 68: Rules of the Gods' Actions
The Great Black Mother set a bad precedent, and the Indians made things worse. Because all these changes were completed in just a few minutes, the corruption of the entire city was but a fleeting moment relative to the scale of human civilization.

Too fast, everything happened too fast.

If someone were to look down from the upper atmosphere at this moment, they would see a huge, scarlet spot, centered on Mumbai, emerging from the depths of the earth like a boil, swelling. The boil would then burst open, and the scattered infected scars would rapidly spread and expand in all directions.

India is very large.

But it was still a large enough, and deadly, abscess.

Several small surrounding cities were affected and fell in an instant. Further out, many regions and municipalities that had been developed and built up thanks to the gold of Tabad were also showing signs of erosion. On the contrary, the northern states, which were usually quite conservative and poor, were not greatly affected. However, even so, the scale of this calamity was already enormous.

“I suspect this is a disaster that is not limited to India. And that means that, at least for now, most prominent people around the world are probably very busy.”

Si Ming stood before the vault, gazing at the massive complex covered in writhing, deforming flesh. He could sense the rhythmic, humid winds surging around him, like the breath of a colossal beast, emanating from within the colossal structure.

"Because India's gold certainly won't just stay in India?" Yu Zhiwei gripped the scepter in her hand, examining the tightly closed vault door before her. Thick layers of rotten flesh and blood were piled on it; rushing in rashly would be a foolish move.

Si Ming nodded, then shook his head.

"Thanks to the Bretton Woods system, even if India acquires a lot of gold, it cannot easily transfer it outside of India. However, the derivatives and financial instruments created from this gold will likely have a significant impact on the entire world."

“This means we’re going to fight alone.” Jacob smiled, his hand flashing with light as he cast a series of protective spells on the Reincarnators to ensure that no disastrous opening attack would occur, leaving the newly formed Celestial Team too passive in such a small situation.

"It could also be the newly emerging evil spirits here, as well as those Indians who may not have all died yet, who are helping the evildoers, who are forced to face us alone."

Si Ming nodded and looked at Valentina—in front of the vault was a sufficiently spacious square, and the ranger in the team who needed to provide electronic warfare support immediately understood—she pulled on her holographic cloak, but this time, only she and Song Tian disappeared from sight.

The Millennium Falcon will be ready and will unleash massive amounts of high-tech firepower when the time is right. But before that, the Reincarnators must ensure that there are no more key survivors in the vault who could have a critical impact on the subsequent battle.

Si Ming raised his hand.

Although they had only known each other for a short time, Luo Yinglong and Almalia had already consciously taken a step forward. Because they were both newcomers, and now was the perfect time for them to showcase their abilities.

So--

"open."

Yu Zhiwei's pupils suddenly shrank to a tiny dot.

The next moment, the entire vault's doors, along with the massive, decaying flesh behind them, all dimmed and lost their luster. The steel, concrete, and flesh lost their shine in an instant, and then, the entire gatehouse directly in front of them collapsed, shattered, and turned into fine dust scattered in the wind!

The howling wind, which sounded like breathing, suddenly stopped.

Yu Zhiwei's telekinetic strike directly erased the life force of the building, which had already shown signs of revitalization!
Something collapsed with a crash, something screamed silently. And the next moment, unnoticed by Yu Zhiwei, two small buildings at the edge of the vault complex suddenly twisted as if they were alive, pulling their concrete foundations out of the shattered earth like feet, and rushed towards the direction where the reincarnators were!

"Flame Strike".

A sacred pillar of fire descended from the heavens.

As Jacob held the blasphemous tablet, the power of his divine magic increased accordingly. One of the two animated buildings was instantly reduced to a shattered concrete frame by the pillar of sacred fire. As for the other, it was struck by Yu Zhiwei's scepter while it was still in motion.

A hundred meters apart, an invisible blade sliced ​​through. Even without using the Point-Line Demon Eye, Yu Zhiwei's telekinetic skills were enough to inflict fatal wounds on these tough-skinned minions.

The reinforced concrete was shattered into pieces, rolling and falling to the ground. But this was just a minor incident, because the main force of the Celestials had already stepped into the center of the complex covered in rotting flesh and blood.

Dispel the dust, break through the thick fog.

Si Ming commanded them and observed the entire battlefield. Valentina, who had successfully taken off while in stealth mode, had already deployed her Millennium Falcon under Song Tian's protection. Now, all the modern devices in the building that were still emitting electronic signals, along with the internal structure diagram of the entire building, were presented to Si Ming's eyes.

"Professor, there are still many life signals inside the vault building. Some of them are moving rapidly toward your location. In addition, the core area at the deepest part of the vault is now completely blacked out. I can't see anything there and there are no extra signals coming out. Perhaps that is our target."

Si Ming nodded and slightly raised his spiral staff.

"I understand. Prepare heavy firepower. There's no need for us to hide too much now."

--"learn."

Communication remained intact. The reincarnators had already entered a state of focused concentration—the routes inside the vault were complex and winding, and naturally, the reincarnators never simply dealt with things as they came.

'Boom—' The wall shattered.

'Kara—' The beams and pillars collapsed.

The four celestial beasts, which had been largely useless in the previous world, finally had their moment to shine—the spiral staff formed from the Firelink Greatsword amplified them, granting them power close to their former strength. The combined psychic energy was then unleashed time and again, relentlessly obliterating and sweeping away everything that stood in the way of the reincarnators.

Soon, the 'partial' life signals that Valentina had selected also came into the sight of the reincarnators.

They saw them.

They still possessed human forms, dressed in traditional and unique attire, their bodies adorned with luxurious jewels that swayed constantly, clearly indicating that they had previously been high-ranking Kshatriyas or Brahmins. But now, their bodies were covered in lividity, and their liquefied, cloudy eyes were filled with pain and despair.

"Do you want gold? Come, here is endless gold."

“Take this gold; it is a gift from God.”

"Gold! Gold!"

They were dressed in gold, carrying gold, their entire bodies covered in gold except for necrosis. And accompanied by their cries that sounded like wails and curses, large amounts of liquid gold suddenly spewed out from their eyes, ears, noses and mouths!
"gold!"

From their withered bodies erupted a torrent of scorching gold, more than ten times the volume of flesh and blood, only to be completely blocked mid-air by the psychic barrier erected by the Fourth Head-Slayer. The spiraling staff paused, and the barrier of refusal transformed into a shockwave. The next moment, the hundreds of tons of liquid gold that had sprung from the bodies of dozens of people surged rapidly back in the direction they had come from!

Loud noise.

That body, capable of spewing out gold, could not withstand the impact and heat of the molten gold returning. Dozens of people were directly roasted and smashed into fragments in the heat of the molten gold, yet even in death, they continued to laugh loudly.

It's underground!
Si Ming gripped his staff, and several skeletal giants that appeared out of thin air lifted him and the others off the ground. The moment the giants materialized, the ground beneath their feet shattered and collapsed!
Gold surged forth, a dazzling, radiant golden ocean radiating endless brilliance. At least tens of thousands of tons of gold, enough to directly destroy the modern financial system, converged here, and a giant hand formed of gold suddenly stretched out towards the location of the reincarnators!
Siming could easily have driven it away, but he simply had the Four Heads use their telekinetic powers to lift himself and the reincarnators upwards. Meanwhile, the summoned sub-giant skeletons silently swung their giant fists, immediately pressing down on the liquid golden giant hand.

They crashed into it—they shattered it. Even molten gold, transformed into a giant, moving hand, wasn't very strong. However, the sub-giant skeleton that shattered the golden hand already showed signs of corrosion and decay all over its body before it even plunged into the sea of ​​gold!

Ownership of the summoned creatures is being plundered. The necromantic aura infused within them is being squeezed out. And the unique properties of this golden sea are being analyzed and captured by the reincarnators.

"I see. Anyone who touches Tabad's gold will be cursed, whether by choice or by force, whether the object touching it is inanimate or alive. Only energy itself can be exempt from this effect."

Si Ming nodded slightly and clenched his fist.

Evil explosion!

The destructive glow began to overflow the moment the sub-giant skeletons fell into the golden sea.

A powerful shockwave and intense light and fire erupted within the golden sea, disrupting the mysterious entity that flowed within it, symbolizing the curse itself.

Without a doubt, that is another kind of energy.

This is the only reason why it cannot be effective against other energies.

A tremendous roar erupted, shaking the entire massive vault building. Sounds of collapse and destruction echoed from every corner, accompanied by the furious resurgence of the ravaged golden sea!
'boom--! ! ’

From the shattered golden ocean, eight enormous, blazing hands made of gold emerged.

However, the next moment, eight separate sword shadows sealed off the eight giant hands!
They had gathered enough strength and conducted sufficient observations. The intelligence that Siming and his team had deliberately probing had also been more than enough.

So……

"It is constantly changing, flowing through the six directions... its position is unpredictable, and its strength and gentleness alternate!"

The newcomer Luo Yinglong finally unleashed his trump card. He formed a sword seal with his hands, unleashing eight colors of true energy simultaneously.

"Eat my Eight Trigrams Demon-Sealing Formation!"
