Chapter 1622: 1622

The Himalayas was crowned as the Roof of the World . Its highest peak, Mount Everest, thrust into the clouds and was usually hidden from naked eyes . It was not a place where ordinary people could go .

Clouds were rolling at the peak of Mount Everest . A snowstorm was blowing, and the whistling wind brought forth a chill that went deep in one’s bones . It was a harsh environment . However, a graceful figure could be seen standing there .

She was clad in a long black dress, which seemed to be made of silk . As the wind blew, it waved gently . Her black hair was waving as well, brushing against her cheeks and veiling her stunningly beautiful face .

Standing on the mountaintop, Nethery’s eyes were emotionless as she glanced around . She was at the highest peak, and that made her look like some supreme being looking down on those lesser creatures . Beside her was a white stove . It glowed with its own heat, melting the snowflakes that touched it .

Nethery turned her head slightly and glanced at the stove . She recognized it . After all, it belonged to Bu Fang—she had seen Bu Fang use it . This was the reason why she seized it, even though it was coveted by many experts .

Of course, seizing a stove was nothing to Nethery . Even though her curse power was completely suppressed, her flesh was extremely strong . The body of a half-step Heavengod was enough to crush everything in this world .

The snowstorm raged on . Snowflakes fell from the sky, turning the whole mountaintop white . However, figures could be seen looming amid the white veil . They were Gods and Immortals from different countries .

The Himalayas was the Roof of the World that separated Hua from many other countries . The White Tiger Heaven Stove was found in one of its mountains . It had attracted the attention of many Immortals and Gods, who crawled out of the black hole after the spiritual energy sealing point was broken .

Ting-a-ling!

Nethery turned and looked into the distance . Vague figures could be seen approaching through the snow in that direction . They were monks clad in red robes, with yellow kasayas draped around their shoulders and large half-moon hats on their heads . It was a very strange style of clothing .

They trudged through the snow, and some people were holding large umbrellas for them . The air was filled with the chanting of some Buddhist scriptures . Clearly, these people came from one power .

Nethery turned her head to another side, her eyes growing colder . In that direction, another group of people was observing the situation . They were dark-skinned and naked from the waist up . Their faces were colorfully painted, and their necks were adorned with gold and silver jewelry . Their aura was very strong, thrusting into the sky in columns .

There were also figures riding on huge bears and figures who had arms growing out from their backs . In addition to these strange Gods, Hua’s Immortals could be seen as well, standing in a group not far away . There was even a group of female Immortals perched on top of a distant mountain, fixing their eyes on Nethery .

None of these Gods and Immortals made a move . They were waiting for others to strike first . They all wanted to get the stove, but they did not want to be the common target for all . There was another reason that made them hesitate: the black-dressed girl was too fearsome .

She did not have magic power, but her fleshly body was extremely strong . None of them was able to determine the level of her strength .

“Amitabha . Dear benefactor, hand over the stove and leave the holy land… and you will not die,” said an old Lama in a scarlet robe and a yellow kasaya as he rested his eyes on Nethery . One of his arms was strung with many golden rings .

“Get lost,” Nethery said, her face expressionless . The wind was strong on the peak of Mount Everest, but she stood straight like a spear, unmoving .

Her powerful reply to the old Lama shocked those around him, while many strange Gods and Immortals narrowed their eyes and looked on gloatingly . Meanwhile, the Gods from India watched with cold eyes .

Four Divine Artifacts were found around the world . With a major change happening to Earth now, these artifacts definitely contained some great secrets . They thought that if they could acquire these Divine Artifacts, they might have a chance to glimpse at the ultimate Great Path . Therefore, they would not give up on getting the stove .

“Dear benefactor, you are too obstinate to be awakened . You will only find your salvation by becoming a Buddhist . ” The old Lama sighed with a benevolent look on his face . The next moment, he nodded to the few Lamas around him .

The Lamas rolled up their kasayas . Looking at Nethery, they kicked the ground and soared into the sky . Spiritual energy erupted from them, turning into light beams, which were actually deadly energy beams . They interwove into a huge net, then fell to envelop Nethery .

One of Nethery’s hands rested on the stove . For her, the stove was not a good weapon because it was too heavy . She could barely lift it even with her physical strength .

Her brows furrowed slightly, and a ghostly green gleam flashed in her eyes . A vague green snake emerged around her, but very quickly, a mighty force pressed down on her, which seemed to come from the depths of the universe . Nethery’s face was expressionless as she thought, ‘Sure enough, my curse power is still being suppressed…’

The suppression made her feel bad . Of course, she could break it with all her might, but she had a feeling that once she did it, she would trigger a backlash from this world . There was something unusual about this planet—she could sense it .

Besides, she had learned about the four Divine Artifacts, and she knew they were Bu Fang’s cooking utensils . That made her conclude that the planet must have something to do with Bu Fang’s secrets . It was also the reason why she struck out and seized the stove from so many experts .

The few Lamas rose into the sky, chanting, while the energy net fell to envelop Nethery . They dared not get close to her because the strength of her flesh was too terrifying . Her fists were like evils, powerful enough to blow them apart with just a light touch .

So, they planned to keep a distance between them and attack her with pure energy . They were all Earth Immortals, and the energy net jointly created by them proved to be effective in suppressing her .

Nethery furrowed her brows . The monks’ means frustrated her because she could not break the energy net with her fists . Suddenly, she stomped her feet, causing the whole mountaintop to explode, and then she threw out a punch . At this moment, her little fist became the focus of all .

Rumble!

The fist collided with the energy net . The powerful impact seemed to tear the net apart, proving that the punch was a powerful one . That shocked all the surrounding experts . Even then, these experts made their moves .

Shafts of light erupted from the back of an Indian God as he threw out thousands of palm strikes . For a moment, countless palms filled the sky, approaching Nethery . Not far from him, the giant bear opened its mouth, roared, and shot out an energy shell from between its jaws .

The wind howled, and the snowstorm seemed to blow harder .

The old Lama opened his eyes and flicked his arm . The golden rings strung on the arm shot out instantly, heading straight toward Nethery . At the same time, the female Immortals standing in the distant peak pinched their fingers . At the gesture, flower petals fell from the sky and turned into spinning sharp blades, ripping through the air as they closed in on Nethery .

At that moment, everyone was on the same page . Of all the four Divine Artifacts, the stove was the last one they could fight for . The black wok was taken away by the Church of the West, the kitchen knife was possessed by the Gods of the Pyramids, and the chef’s robe was acquired by a mysterious Qi cultivator from Hua . That left them with the stove . Therefore, these Gods and Immortals would not give up easily .

A rumbling sound filled the air as countless energy blasts fell from the sky . Nethery looked up, her eyes cold and her black hair waving violently in the wind . Then, she lifted her fist and threw out another punch . As all watched in shock, she actually fended off all the energy attacks with one punch!

Among the experts present, many were Heaven Immortals, including the Indian God, the old Lama, and the female Immortals on the distant peak . Their attacks had caused the sky to shatter .

A rapid popping sound rang out as countless lines appeared and spread across the ground under Nethery’s feet . It was as though the whole mountaintop was about to crumble . Then, a loud rumble echoed out, and the top of the mountain began to shatter .

Snows broke and fell, turning into an avalanche . For a moment, a rumbling filled the air as if the whole world was falling apart . The people at the foot of the Himalayas all knelt on the ground with fear, bowing and chanting . “The Gods are fighting on the Holy Mountain!” The battle between the Gods and the Immortals terrified them .

Nethery’s face was cold . She clutched the White Tiger Heaven Stove with one hand, then used the other to fend off the attack from those experts . Under her feet, the snows turned into a huge whirlpool, rumbling .

The sight shocked many people . “Where did this girl come from? How could her fleshly body be so absurdly strong?!”

“Dear benefactor… Take a step back and get some clarity on the situation . You have no use of the stove . Why don’t you offer it to the Buddha and give us the opportunity…” said the old Lama . Whenever his golden rings fell, they struck Nethery and made her body rumble .

Nethery glared at the old Lama . “Shut up! You know nothing! I can trade this stove for food! Can your opportunity be eaten?!” she said .

The old Lama’s eyes turned cold . “What nonsense are you talking about? You are too obstinate to be awakened . You can never fight against so many Gods with the mere body of a mortal . What a fool!”

He gave a loud, long cry, then golden light began to spread from his palms . Suddenly, he clasped them together and rubbed them against each other . A few moments later, a huge golden staff fell from the sky . Many golden rings were fastened to it, and they rang loudly as a holy aura erupted from the staff .

“This is the Buddha’s Divine Artifact, and I will use it to suppress you, evil girl!” the old Lama said coldly .

Many experts sucked in their breaths . The Indian God shuddered with fear, while the few female Immortals fell silent .

The staff glowed as it fell from the sky, approaching Nethery . It was the old Lama’s treasure, the Divine Artifact used by the Lord Buddha, and it contained power strong enough to suppress the skies .

The old Lama was confident that the staff would be able to defeat the evil girl . By unleashing it, he was also telling the others that he was determined to acquire the stove . And sure enough, it had frightened many Gods and Immortals .

The ground under Nethery’s feet caved in, and the snow turned into another avalanche . In just the blink of an eye, the topmost layer of the mountain was gone . Snowflakes swirled around her, forming a huge whirlpool of snow and trapping her . For a moment, she seemed to be completely swallowed .

Despite the seemingly critical situation, Nethery still showed no fear . Suddenly, she paused, then turned her head and looked at the sky . She heard a whistling sound approaching from that direction!

A strange God riding on a huge bear roared and soared into the sky . “Who goes there?! How could you not follow the rules!” he growled as his body began to glow .

Four Lamas put their palms together and flew into the sky as well, trying to stop the figure who came to intervene in their business .

A figure was closing in at great speed from the horizon . It did not walk on air nor ride on clouds, but was flying straight toward them like a cannonball . Everyone’s expression changed drastically when they heard the terrible sonic booms .

The giant bear thumped its chest and roared .

The corners of Nethery’s mouth twitched slightly as she looked at the approaching figure .

A rumbling sound echoed out as the strange God standing on the giant bear’s shoulders collided with the figure . A blinding light broke out in the sky, and then the strange God exploded into a cloud of blood mist, while the giant bear was thrown to the ground, sinking deep into the snow .

The four Lamas tried to block the figure, but in just a flash, they were flying backward, coughing blood . Then, a blast swept past them, crushing their lower bodies in an instant .

The air was filled with a terrifying aura that made everyone suffocate .

In just a flash, the figure landed at Nethery’s side . The howling snowstorm seemed to freeze at this moment as the figure slowly raised his head, revealing an expressionless face .
