I let the genie out of the bottle

"I'm sorry, but it seems I don't plan to do that at the moment."

P.S.: I'm quite sleepy...

Chapter Twenty-Three: My sword is faster than yours!

"Hey you, let me out!"

The loli demon shouted in Lu Ye's ear.

She couldn't understand.

It's completely incomprehensible.

Because Lu Ye's reaction completely exceeded her expectations.

"You'll definitely die if you keep going like this. Do you want to gamble on becoming a god-slayer? Don't be silly, you're not one of those lucky ones in this world."

"You know that, right? In this world, those so-called lucky ones are actually predetermined! The fate of this world will never record your name as an outsider in the list of those it favors!"

"I just...want to be free...let me out, and I'll take care of that guy in front of you, and I absolutely won't hurt you!"

The demon in the bottle shouted.

Her dark golden eyes were filled with deep confusion.

"Are you out of your mind? Aren't you the most cowardly, afraid-of-death, and spineless guy?! Then let me out!"

"Instead of gambling your life against an enemy far stronger than yourself, why not try trusting me this time? You're more likely to survive."

“It’s not a certain death sentence.” Lu Ye gripped his sword tightly with one hand and said in a somewhat deep voice.

Then, the little devil sensed that the power within the entire temple was slowly gathering.

Although it cannot be called a divine artifact as a whole, this temple, which has existed for a long time, has accumulated extraordinary power through the worship of generations.

Now, these powers formed from faith have once again returned to faith and are beginning to flow into Lu Ye's body.

"What are you doing?"

Sensing the unusual aura emanating from Lu Ye, Mars' pupils instantly contracted, and a look of shock and anger appeared on his face.

"How dare you devour my divine power!"

For the first time, the Roman god of war revealed a look of fury.

"The vicious wolf worshipped by the Huns! You tore at my flesh and blood, swallowing me piece by piece. The hatred and pain are still etched in my heart!"

"Today, you dare to devour my divine power! To seize my very essence!"

Seeing the familiar divine power gradually emerging from Lu Ye's body, Mars's killing intent intensified.

"Mars!" Lu Ye roared, gripped his sword tightly, and leaped up to charge towards the God of War in front of him.

Based on the previous teachings of the bottle demon, he was already quite familiar with how to use his power.

Humans and gods alike have their own understanding of the world or their environment.

Observe the world and form your own worldview.

For ordinary people, their worldview and their relationship with the world are unidirectional. It is the unidirectional nature of the world that determines the formation of their worldview.

However, the little devil led him down a different path.

An individual's worldview influences the world.

Of course, given his current strength, his worldview can only barely cover himself.

This kind of personal worldview is a product of anthropocentrism, which firmly believes that humanity has created everything.

According to the little devil, it is one of the top power systems in the endless world, and at the same time, it is a power that only people with extremely biased and self-centered thinking can use.

It was precisely because of his [worldview] that he was able to use the magic power within him to create a lightsaber out of thin air.

At the same time, by leveraging the worldview, he can also consume magic to enhance his physical attributes or accelerate the healing of injuries.

Because he believed he could do it, he was able to do it.

Of course, no matter how bright the future of this system is, or how much power it can exert, it ultimately depends on the users.

"Evil wolf! Die!" Mars' sword shone brightly as he unleashed a full-force strike at Lu Ye's head.

"You're the one who should die!" Lu Ye gritted his teeth, took out the sealing bottle from his pocket, and raised it with one hand to block Mars's sword strike.

The divine weapon, the Sword of Mars, possesses incredible sharpness and power.

The lightsaber that Lu Ye conjured out of thin air would shatter after colliding with the Sword of Mars a few times.

The sealed bottle was struck by the Sword of Mars, yet not a single mark was left.

This outcome was within Lu Ye's expectations.

After all, if this bottle were so easy to break, then the little devil wouldn't have gone to such lengths to get him to break the seal.

However, when the sword collided with the bottle, the force contained within it still made his hand holding the bottle go numb, and he almost lost control and let go.

but--

"Die, Mars!" Lu Ye shouted, slashing his sword toward Mars's neck.

"Hmph! A death throes!" Mars sneered, the divine power covering his body shining even brighter.

Lu Ye had already tried countless times, but even Mars's divine power was difficult to break through!

But this time—

An unusual light quickly swirled around the sword in his hand.

The divine power emanating from the sword suddenly changed.

A sense of foreboding suddenly arose in Mars's mind.

"That is--"

The sword in his hand was swung with even greater force once again.

This time, the sword, radiating divine light and perfectly matching Mars' aura, pierced through Mars' protective divine power like a hot knife through butter, sliding in without any hindrance!

"What?" Mars, the God of War, was shocked for the first time, and in the critical moment, he quickly moved his body to the side.

Even so, Lu Ye's sword still landed on his shoulder, severing one of his arms and half of his shoulder together!

Unfortunately, they couldn't cut off his head.

Lu Ye gritted his teeth, secretly resentful.

Now, they are facing a deadly counterattack from Mars.

With this thought in mind, he simply stepped on Mars' severed arm under Mars' murderous gaze and absorbed all the divine power within it!

"Be bold!"

Humiliated and furious, the God of War Mars roared, raised his divine sword, and was about to slash diagonally down at Lu Ye, determined to cut him and his sword in two!

At this distance, Lu Ye had no way to dodge!

However, faced with this situation, Lu Ye's expression became calm.

I bet—

He raised his sword, ready to slash upwards at the blade that Mars was about to bring down.

"Hey! Are you out of your mind?!" the demon trapped in the bottle shouted anxiously.

of course not.

"Let me out!"

However you look at it, the result of this collision was that Lu Ye, along with the sword in his hand, was cut in two by Mars.

"I bet my sword—"

Lu Ye's hand, gripping the sword, was so strong that the veins bulged and even twitched slightly.

Having absorbed the beast-tooth artifact, most of the power within the temple, and with one of Mars's arms—

The power gestating within him was finally taking shape.

"I'll definitely be faster than you!"

P.S.: I don't know what I wanted to write, and I didn't manage to write it...emmm, please vote!

Chapter Twenty-Four: Where there is a cause, there is an effect!

"die--!"

Mars raised his divine sword high, roared, and was about to strike down with it.

Lu Ye gripped the lightsaber he had created with divine power that shared the same origin as Mars, his gaze solemn.

His nascent ability was forcibly activated. As a result, the magic power within him drained away like water from a burst dam.

“If you have the cause, you will reap the result—” Lu Ye stared intently at Mars’ neck and said slowly.

next moment.

Just as Mars gathered all his strength to strike down with his sword.

He had already grasped the sword, ready to strike.

Because it already has it.

So--

No process required.

Let's get straight to the results.

Mars suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck.

Immediately afterwards, his head flew off, and divine blood gushed out.

"what?"

The severed head still retained consciousness, and Mars' eyes widened involuntarily, unable to comprehend what had just happened.

Just now, he was preparing to cut the enemy in front of him in two with a single sword strike.

Why did the situation suddenly change so drastically, with him being beheaded by a single sword strike?

"Impossible! Impossible!"

The severed head of the God of War roared in disbelief, unable to comprehend what had happened.

"Why! Why did this happen! This is impossible!"

Lu Ye's hand holding the sword trembled slightly as he slowly withdrew his sword from Mars's neck, taking a step back with some difficulty.

The next moment, the tall, headless corpse of the God of War fell to the ground with a "bang" as if a mountain of gold and a jade pillar had been overturned.

At the same time, with a "bang", Lu Ye's hand loosened weakly, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground and dissipated.

"Mars, you lost!" Lu Ye gritted his teeth and said in a slightly hoarse voice.

"The power of cause and effect?" the little devil in the bottle exclaimed in surprise.

Lu Ye did not answer.

What he just used was the ability that had been developing within him since he absorbed the power from the Beast Fang Divine Tool.

The power of direct cause and effect.

Every cause has an effect, but between cause and effect, there exists a process.

This ability, once he achieves the "cause," can directly lead to the corresponding "effect."

Grasp the sword that can cut through Mars' protective divine power, and assume the posture of slashing out with the sword; this is the reason.

The sword was aimed at Mars's neck; this was the process.

Finally, Mars's head was severed; that was the end of it.
