When "God" Decides To Start Over

He returned to the Left Courtyard, where the magical spirits were most concentrated, and Li Xiu summoned the Jedi Knight.

The B-class Jedi Knight was considered the strongest combat force in Li Xiu's hands, and its Light Energy was also the strongest.

"Chu Jun, let's conduct an experiment. I'll let the Jedi Knight release the Blood Light Slash, and you try to sense if the magical spirits have decreased where the Blood Light Slash passes." After instructing Chu Jun, Li Xiu had the Jedi Knight unleash the Blood Light Slash.

A crescent-shaped blood-red blade light burst forth, slicing across a distance of dozens of meters, striking the courtyard wall, and leaving a deep mark before completely dissipating.

The Jedi Knight's current Blood Light Slash was clearly much stronger than when it was C-class.

"No, those magical spirits have not decreased." Seeing Li Xiu look over, Chu Jun said with a bitter smile.

"No effect at all?" Li Xiu asked with a frown.

"Even if there is an effect, it is negligible. At least I didn't sense a significant disappearance of magical spirits." Chu Jun replied.

"That is a bit troublesome. The fact that Light Energy cannot eliminate these magical spirits indicates that the Light Energy on us might also be useless, unable to fend off their invasion." While Li Xiu was pondering, he suddenly heard a howl from outside.

Awooo!

A wolf-like howl came from outside, and Li Xiu hurriedly rushed to the courtyard gate to look outside, slightly stunned by what he saw.

At some unknown time, the statues of the two Gate Guardian Beasts in front of the main hall had stood up, assuming a posture of looking up at the sky and howling like hungry wolves.

Their eyes glowed with red blood light, seemingly staring at the sky.

"Blood Moon!" Following their gaze, Li Xiu looked up and saw that the moon hanging in the sky had somehow turned blood red.

The blood-like moonlight poured down, casting a layer of blood light over the already eerie and terrifying temple, making it even more monstrous.

Li Xiu was horrified to discover that under the illumination of the blood-red moonlight, countless red light spots seemed to be surging in the air inside the temple.

These extremely tiny blood-red light spots were almost invisible, and if not for the Blood Moon making them glow, they would be completely invisible to the naked eye.

They were like specks of dust illuminated in a beam of light in the dark; dense and innumerable.

Even with Light Energy Protection, people need to breathe, and with every inhalation and exhalation, a large number of red light spots are drawn into the body.

Li Xiu was shocked, his body erupted with Light Energy, driving away the dense light spots while he held his breath, quickly rushing into the Divine Hall of the Left Courtyard.

The red light spots were slightly fewer inside the Divine Hall, but still everywhere, the reduction almost negligible.

Chu Jun was watching the light spots in horror, and when Li Xiu looked at Chu Jun, he noticed a peculiar phenomenon.

The blood-red light spots weren't approaching Chu Jun.

"Chu Jun, your White Lotus seems to restrain these virus-like magical spirits." Li Xiu immediately realized.

Upon hearing this, Chu Jun quickly summoned the White Lotus. Although it was a White Lotus, it now glowed red on the outside, emitting a blood-like red light, quite similar to the color of the virus spirits.

Chu Jun let the White Lotus shine, and as its light touched the red spots, large patches of them extinguished, as if burned into ash by flames.

Both were overjoyed; Chu Jun had never imagined that his White Lotus Symbiotic Contract, which only had healing abilities, could actually kill magical spirits.

He waved the White Lotus, charging towards the areas with the most blood-red light spots, extinguishing patches of them.

However, the blood-red light spots were just too numerous. Whenever the White Lotus's light energy wiped them out, large amounts of red light spots quickly surged back, filling the previously vacated space, and the White Lotus couldn't burn them all away.

"Chu Jun, catch the hat." Li Xiu tossed the gentleman's hat to Chu Jun.

Chu Jun, without further hesitation, grabbed the gentleman's hat and put it on, immediately feeling an odd energy filling his entire body, as if he had taken a stimulant, with boundless strength, and the light on the White Lotus also grew much more intense.

If it was just a torch earlier, now the Light Flame on the White Lotus was like a bonfire.

With the light of the White Lotus, Chu Jun scorched the surrounding red spots to flicker and extinguish, causing large patches of light spots to be reduced to ash.

"Mount up; we are breaking out." Li Xiu saw the light spots could not be exterminated entirely and knew that it wasn't a solution, realizing they had to address the root of the problem.

Chu Jun swiftly mounted up, and Li Xiu clenched his legs as the Pink Nightmare let out a long neigh, charging through the dense red light spots, directly out of the courtyard, heading towards the two howling Gate Guardian Beast statues at the main hall entrance.

Li Xiu suspected that they were the source of these virus spirits and only by killing them could the virus spirits truly be eradicated.

The closer to the Gate Guardian Beasts, the more numerous the red light spots in the air. Li Xiu could no longer hold his breath, had to bolster the Light Energy in his body, and stopped holding his breath, inhaling large quantities of red light spots with each breath.

Li Xiu couldn't see it himself, but his eyes were already filled with red blood threads, each of which glowed blood-red, making his eyes look extraordinarily eerie.

"Li Xiu, your eyes!" Chu Jun saw Li Xiu's eyes and was startled.

Even wearing the Dark Mirror, he could still see under the black lens, Li Xiu's eyes glowed with blood light, like a fierce ghost.

Li Xiu had already seen his own eye problem from Chu Jun's pupils and gritted his teeth, saying, "Let's deal with those two first."

He drew the Fire Lotus Sword, summoning both Demigod Shana and the Jedi Knight as he charged towards the two Guardian Beasts statues.
