Then let them offer their loyalty!

But... that is indeed the most reasonable explanation.

Thus, in this state of anxiety, the four gods recovered in over half an hour, one after another.

As the last deity, Sindo, slowly opened his eyes, the sky over the "Sangma Region" seemed to sense it and gradually darkened.

Layers of dark clouds piled up and rolled together, forming a huge cloud vortex.

The clouds swirled down, the dark clouds slowly turning from gray to black, and finally transforming into a sky full of black clouds!

The next second, the dark clouds descended from the heavens like a waterfall, swirling down to the ground! Then they turned into black mist and rapidly dispersed in all directions!

Upon seeing this, the four gods all flashed backward, creating distance between themselves and the black mist!

A moment later, as the black mist dissipated, Qiu Tu and his small group appeared before the Four Gods.

Qiu Tu stood at the head of the group, looking at the four gods with a blank expression, as if they were four dead men.

Qinglan and Zhiyan stood behind him, their faces showing a hint of amazement.

And finally, there's Zhu Wu and... a slightly dazed, but physically intact, resurrected Princess Xi.

Upon seeing Princess Xi, not only was Princess Xi stunned, but the four gods opposite her were also somewhat taken aback.

After all, they witnessed Princess Xi die with their own eyes, so how could she have been resurrected?

Could it be that Qiu Tu saved him?

So... is his cataclysmic ability related to resurrection and life?

That ability is terrifyingly strong.

Perhaps because they couldn't figure it out, a bunch of question marks lingered in the minds of the four gods.

However, before they could figure it out, Qiu Tu spoke first.

Qiu Tu stared at the Four Gods expressionlessly, his gaze cold and devoid of any warmth.

He stared coldly at the four people in front of him, as if they were already dead, and then said, "I think I just heard someone say that they wanted to show me their strength?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, the twins Xin Duo looked at Qiu Tu in unison and then mechanically said, "Lord Qiu, please don't misunderstand. We don't actually want to be enemies with you."

"We simply want to prove our strength, clear up any misunderstandings between us, and then gain the right to leave the 'Sangma Region'."

"Lord Qiu may not know us. We are high-ranking members of the 'Northeast Region - Heavenly Punishment Alliance.' We, the 'Heavenly Punishment Alliance,'..."

"Shut up!" Before Xin Duo could finish explaining their situation, Qiu Tu coldly interrupted them.

Then his right hand suddenly grabbed at Sindo in mid-air!

The next second! A deafening "BOOM!" resounded! Xin Duo's body was actually torn apart from a distance, turning into a shower of blood, flesh, and remains!

Even as he lay dying, his face was filled with disbelief; clearly, he never imagined he would die so tragically.

Not to mention him, upon seeing this scene, whether it was Guangchan, Mela, or the remaining Xindo, their pupils all contracted sharply!

Keep in mind, Xin Duo is an eighth-tier evil god. Even at the early stage of the eighth tier, he is still a genuine eighth-tier evil god. Even a great evil god like Guang Chan, who is at the late stage of the eighth tier, would need to fight dozens of rounds to defeat someone of this level.

As it turned out, he didn't even last one move against Qiu Tu.

Such strength definitely surpasses the late stage of the eighth rank. After all, to achieve such a one-hit kill, one would need at least the peak of the eighth rank, having undergone another qualitative leap!

'Could it be that Qiu Tu has truly mastered the strength of the peak of the eighth rank?'

Thinking this, alarm bells rang loudly in the hearts of the three gods!

Of these, the other one, Sindo, is the most sensitive!

Perhaps because he had witnessed "himself" die, he could no longer pretend to be mechanical and calm. He quickly reached out to stop Qiu Tu, saying, "Lord Qiu, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding."

"You might have misunderstood me, no, you misunderstood my brother. My brother meant..."

Hearing what the other Xin Duo said, Qiu Tu's cold gaze couldn't help but fall on him.

Then, looking at the other Xin Duo, Qiu Tu's expression remained unchanged. He snorted coldly and said, "Killed one, and there's another? Ha, playing tricks!"

After saying that, Qiu Tu reached out and shook hands with the second Xin Duo again!

The next second! With a deafening "BOOM!", the second Sindo was also blasted into a shower of blood and flesh!

Thus, the twins of the "Heavenly Punishment Alliance," Xin Duo, have fallen!

If Qiu Tu casually eliminating one Xin Duo could be considered a coincidence, then casually eliminating two certainly couldn't be!

Coupled with Qiu Tu's ruthless and somewhat perverse reasons for killing, both Mela and Guang Chan were stunned for a moment and dared not breathe!

As a result, they remained silent, but Qiu Tu spoke up again.

He looked at Guang Chan as if summoning the King of Hell himself, and said, "I heard you almost killed Lin Xi?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Guang Chan first glanced at the unharmed Lin Xi, and then all the runes on his body began to flash red! It was as if to prove his anxiety and his rapidly working brain.

Before he could come up with a reasonable explanation, Qiu Tu spoke up again.

Qiu Tu looked at him coldly and said, "I think I also heard you say that you and I are evenly matched?"

Qiu Tu stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze as deep and dark as a boundless ocean. He said, "I'll give you a chance. Make a move against me."

"If you can make me lose even a single hair, you win. I'll let you go."

Having witnessed Qiu Tu's domineering demeanor and terrifying strength, "Light Cicada" actually wanted to back down and find a way to leave.

However, when he saw Qiu Tu's disdainful expression and heard Qiu Tu's contemptuous words, he gritted his teeth and all the runes on his body lit up to their highest level!

The next second, he stared at Qiu Tu with bloodshot eyes, then his body trembled and he transformed into millions of light cicadas, frantically slashing at Qiu Tu!

The countless golden threads divided time and space, cutting into Qiu Tu's body!

But Qiu Tu stood there as if nothing had happened, then reached out and grabbed a light cicada, then sneered, "Too weak."

The next second, he exerted force! The light cicada in his hand was crushed!

Immediately afterwards, a series of explosions followed!

The countless light cicadas didn't even have a chance to do anything before they were all crushed!

The once invincible leader of the "Heavenly Punishment Alliance," Guang Chan, has fallen!

Meanwhile, the last of the Four Gods, the pink-haired female pirate Mela, was completely dumbfounded.

Although they had already guessed that Qiu Tu was exceptionally strong, and also guessed that their side was likely to lose.

But she really didn't expect to lose so completely.

This can't even be called a loss; it should be called being completely crushed...

So, she slid down to her knees, prostrating herself before Qiu Tu, and said, "Lord Qiu Tu, I have never intended to be your enemy. I have never harmed Speaker Lin, so it's not surprising. Could you spare my life?"

Upon hearing Mela's words, Qiu Tu slowly walked towards her, then bent down, lowered his head, and used his hand to lift Mela's chin.

Remembering Qiu Tu's long-standing reputation for womanizing, Mela quickly tried to put on a pretty smile, hoping to use her looks to seduce him.

She was indeed quite good-looking, or rather... none of the high-ranking deities were ugly.

Add to that...honey-colored skin, a healthy, energetic body, and a wild temperament, and you certainly have the desire to try it out.

"You... are indeed quite good."

Seemingly genuinely captivated by Mela's appearance, Qiu Tu offered a casual comment.

Upon hearing this, a hint of joy appeared in Mela's eyes.

But then, Qiu Tu changed his tone, saying, "Unfortunately, we followed the wrong person."

"May you be a good person in your next life."

After saying that, Qiu Tu clenched his fist, and the next second, Mela exploded into dust in his hand!

They probably didn't expect Qiu Tu to be so ruthless, or they probably didn't expect him to act so suddenly.

Mela died with disbelief on her face!

After all, according to her intelligence, Qiu Tu was power-hungry and lustful; he would be unable to resist any beautiful woman with distinctive features.

Therefore, in her view, even if she came to kill Qiu Tu, even if she failed, as long as she knelt down, bent over, and stuck out her buttocks in front of Qiu Tu, Qiu Tu would forgive her.

—To some extent, this is why she continued with her plan despite having a constant premonition.

In her view, there were only two options for attacking Qiu Tu: "winning" or "winning big".

If she actually defeats Qiu Tu, she can get a huge share of resources. If she is defeated by Qiu Tu, then she can become a member of Qiu Tu's harem and latch onto a new powerful figure.

But... things didn't turn out the way she expected at all.

When Qiu Tu killed her, it was no different from when he killed Guang Chan and Xin Duo; he didn't even blink.

In her dying moments, only one last thought remained in Mela's mind.

'Damn it... Qiu Tu has actually stopped being attracted to beautiful women... What a blunder...'

Finally, Mela's consciousness sank into darkness and vanished completely...

"Heavenly Punishment Alliance" Mela has fallen!

At this moment, Qiu Tu, who had killed four eighth-level evil gods in four moves, slowly straightened up.

He stared at Mela's bloodied and mangled body, his gaze as cold as ice.

'If a loyalty level of 13 counts as defection, then Yan Chen is my die-hard loyalist.'

'You had no genuine intention of joining me, and you even tried to kill me while I was advancing in rank, so don't blame me for being ruthless.'

Thinking this, Qiu Tu waved his hand, and the next second, the four evil god corpses that had just been blown apart were piled up into a heap.

Two days later, they will transform into "Boundless Divine Crystals" and become part of Qiu Tu's controlled area, helping to raise the "regional energy level" of the area controlled by Qiu Tu.

It can be considered a way to make use of waste.

After doing all this, Qiu Tu turned to look at Lin Xi.

Lin Xi had gradually come to her senses by this time.

Perhaps never expecting to have a second life, she looked at Qiu Tu with a complicated expression.

She had just learned the truth about her resurrection from Zhuwu.

Once a being advances to the sixth rank and obtains a "world official position," it is not so easy for it to perish.

Not only after death, the soul can return to the "origin of the world" and await reincarnation.

Moreover, as long as the soul is immortal, it can be resurrected through secret techniques and Cataclysmic Treasures.

Of course, resurrection requires the soul to still be intact. Fortunately... after discovering Lin Xi's demise, Zhu Wu unleashed a concentrated burst of "cataclysmic power" many times greater than normal, forcibly stabilizing Lin Xi's soul.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xi's soul and cataclysmic power were somewhat special.

Lin Xi's second path, "Destruction-Revenge," allows her to become stronger and recover faster the greater the damage she suffers.

It is precisely because of this characteristic that the Lin family was able to create the powerful weapon of war, the "Butterfly Transformation Gu," by relying on Lin Xi's cataclysmic abilities.

But can any damage be greater than a fall?

Thus, Lin Xi's "Butterfly Transformation" ability began to take effect, attempting to repair her body and frantically increasing her strength.

However... Lin Xi had already shattered into dozens of pieces, so "Butterfly Transformation" could hardly help her repair it.

As a result, Qiu Tu successfully advanced to the next round.

He had already learned about the entire battle process when he advanced to the next round.

So, after successfully advancing, the first thing he did was to use "Order Space" to restore Lin Xi's body.

After recovering his body, Lin Xi's cataclysmic power finally had an outlet and began to frantically save Lin Xi!

And so, Lin Xi was finally and completely resurrected.

However, for Lin Xi, who had already bravely faced death, being given a second life brought both joy and confusion.

It seems she has taken revenge for all the wrongs she could and repaid all the kindness she needed to. She has lived in poverty and also wielded power in a shelter.

So, for a moment, she felt a little lost. That's why she looked at Qiu Tu with such a complicated expression...

Just then, as Princess Xi was feeling lost, Zhu Wu suddenly cried out in surprise.

Everyone present couldn't help but look at her.

As a result, Zhu Wu looked up at Qiu Tu and said, "Qiu Tu, your ranking in the 'Trial of the Gods' has skyrocketed!"

"And what's more! For some reason, Zehime's ranking has suddenly risen! She's actually entered the top 10!"
