Chapter 494: Chapter 491 Valkyrie An Unexpected Encounter
Chapter 494 -491 Valkyrie An Unexpected Encounter
“Kill…”
On the battlefield, chaos reigned. Tens of thousands of soldiers fought until blood formed rivers, with countless dead and wounded.
Yet these warriors fought to the death without retreat, valiant and fearless.
The two sides appeared evenly matched, and even the commanding generals were nearly equal in combat prowess.
As such, the battle could not easily determine a victor in the short term, and the stalemate resulted in the most tragic casualties.
For a time, the battlefield boiled with killing intent, and blood and fury reached the skies.
On a small hill outside of the battlefield, Qin Feng leaned against a stone shaped like a reclining ox, casually watching the battle on the plains with his legs crossed.
He wasn’t interested in watching people slaughter each other; rather, he wanted to understand other matters through this battle.
For example, how Odin dispatched his subordinates to select warriors from the Human Clan’s battlefield to become Heroic Spirit Warriors.
Since a great battle had broken out here, it was very likely to attract Odin’s envoys.

According to the memories in Qin Feng’s mind, those envoys were apparently called Valkyries, demigods who guided heroic spirits, all of whom were beautiful girl warriors!
On his journey thus far, Qin Feng had witnessed a dozen smaller scale wars, but it was a pity he hadn’t seen any Valkyries on those battlefields, probably because the scale of the battles was too small to attract the Valkyries’ attention.
Legend had it that the Valkyries were the maids of Odin, the King of All Gods, but whether this was true remained to be seen.
Qin Feng had always wanted to see how these so-called Valkyries escorted the souls of the fallen warriors to the Heroic Spirit Hall, and this was the only chance he currently had to come into contact with the upper echelons of the Divine Country.
After all, ordinary members of the Divine Clan did not casually descend to the Lower Realm for leisure, and Qin Feng did not dare to casually tread upon the Rainbow Bridge to wander Asgard, where the Divine Country was located.
As time passed, the combat on the battlefield intensified, with even fiercer killing intent and innumerable casualties.
Finally, a figure appeared in the distant sky.
It was a girl warrior flying through the sky on a snow-white steed, clad in shining armor. Her agile figure indicated that she was a strong and spirited combatant.
“She’s here!”
Qin Feng perked up when he spotted the figure from afar, feeling a thrill of excitement.
Though a thin mist enveloped the figure, masking her form from the eyes of mortals, Qin Feng’s Dao Cultivation was sufficient to see through these relatively simple Eye-Blocking Techniques.
The girl warrior seemed not to conceal her aura intentionally; invisibility was merely to maintain a sense of mystery for the Divine Country’s envoys in front of ordinary mortals.
The Valkyries existed to collect the souls of warriors, not to engage in sneaky business. Her mist was designed to hide from the eyes of normal people but allowed the spirits of the dead warriors to see her presence.
Qin Feng squinted, not daring to push his eyes to their limits, lest he inadvertently alert her and expose his position.
Even if an inadvertent exposure might not lead to any trouble, it was better to be safe than sorry!
As the envoy of the King of Gods, the Valkyrie’s strength was undoubtedly extraordinary, and Qin Feng dared not be the slightest bit careless.
In the distance, the Valkyrie arrived above the battlefield. With a graceful figure and a long spear in hand, her whole being radiated valor as she rode her horse in a circle in the sky, her gaze sweeping the battlefield below, clearly in search of truly brave warrior spirits!
Suddenly, as the girl warrior turned around facing in Qin Feng’s direction, Qin Feng couldn’t help but widen his eyes in disbelief.
“…Senior Sister?”
Qin Feng was stunned.
He stared at the heroic figure on horseback.
Although she was clad in armor quite different from that of the Cultivation World, and her head was topped with long golden hair, both her appearance and expression were indistinguishable from Li Miaozhen.
Even though her aura had undergone some changes, merely hiding the unique aura of a cultivator and revealing her domineering martial force, this change was still not enough to deceive Qin Feng’s eyes.
It never occurred to him that the Valkyrie he had been waiting to see would turn out to be Li Miaozhen; this outcome was indeed a startling surprise for Qin Feng.
He suddenly stood up, ready to call out to Li Miaozhen, but then he worried that there might be other Valkyries watching in secret, so he did not call out directly and instead allowed a hint of his own aura to leak out.
“Hmm?”
In mid-air, Li Miaozhen, who was riding her mount back and forth, felt something and abruptly turned her head to look toward the small hill nearby, then she saw Qin Feng!
“Junior Brother?”
She paused for a moment, then her face lit up with great joy. Pulling the reins, she rode her horse towards Qin Feng.
“Junior Brother Qin, what are you doing here?”
Li Miaozhen’s crisp voice rang out.
“So it really is Senior Sister!”
Qin Feng’s face revealed his joy. “Little brother heard that envoys from the Upper Divine Country would come to guide the souls of warriors on the battlefield, so I wanted to see what the legendary envoy looked like. I never expected to actually wait for Senior Sister!”
At this point, he couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Senior Sister, your attire had me almost convinced you were one of the Valkyries under the King of All Gods, Odin himself. How come you’re dressed like this?”
“That’s right, I’m now serving as a Valkyrie, an envoy under the King of All Gods, Odin, tasked with guiding the souls of warriors!”
Li Miaozhen elegantly dismounted her horse with a swift lift of her leg, saying with a smiling expression.
“Uh?”
Qin Feng was surprised now. “Senior Sister, you… you’re not in disguise?”
“Of course not. I have been personally selected as a Girl Warrior by the Valkyrie herself!”
Li Miaozhen lifted her delicate chin, revealing her snow-white slender neck, her face beaming with pride.
“This…”
Seeing Qin Feng’s incredulous expression, Li Miaozhen became even prouder. “Hehe, you didn’t expect it, did you? Well, it’s only natural. A talent as outstanding as I am will shine wherever I go!”
Qin Feng couldn’t help but ask, “Senior Sister, how did you manage it? Have you… already been to the Divine Country in the Upper Realm?”
“Correct, I’ve just descended from the Divine Country.”
Li Miaozhen’s face was brimming with a smile as she began to recount her adventures without keeping Qin Feng in suspense.
Originally, when Grandmaster Ancestor Taixuan sent the disciples of various sects into the five High Rank Worlds, he didn’t choose based on the disciples’ cultivation levels but rather distributed the personnel roughly. Among the Beast Taming Sect disciples, Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen were the closest to each other, so they were sent to the same world.
However, the opportunities Li Miaozhen found in this world were far more exciting than those Qin Feng stumbled upon.
Although she wasn’t adept at scheming, her formidable war power and easygoing character made her especially popular among the local powers. So, it didn’t take long for a king to value her highly, granting her a lofty status and treating her as a wandering warrior, attempting to retain this female powerhouse with wealth and noble titles.
Li Miaozhen’s cultivation level had already reached the Peak of the Golden Core. Her understanding of the Geng Metal Dao was also incredibly powerful. Initially, she had deliberately suppressed her cultivation level because she didn’t understand the nature of the trials, hence she didn’t advance. However, after arriving in this world and no longer suppressing her realm, she naturally ascended to the Purple Mansion.
At the time, in order to gain a better grasp of the truth of this world, considering that the royal family of that kingdom was also descended from a Divine Bloodline, preserving certain records about the Divine, she chose not to leave immediately. Instead, she stayed in that kingdom, planning to familiarize herself thoroughly with this world before discussing departure.
Unexpectedly, not long after she received a title from the kingdom, it came under heavy invasion from an enemy kingdom. The border defenses fell, warriors were killed, and the enemy’s army broke through the frontier castles, breaching into the interior of the country, making the situation dire.
At a critical moment, Li Miaozhen stood out.
Partly due to her combative nature, and also in order to gain the royal family’s trust for easier access to the royal family’s secret records about the Divine, she swept across the battlefield with her brute personal might. She consecutively killed many strong enemies from the opposing kingdom, pulling back the tide of battle with her own hands, and at the final clash, she crushed the enemy army, securing a definitive victory in the war.
This triumph not only earned Li Miaozhen an immense reputation in that kingdom, but it also caught the attention of the Valkyrie from above.
Because the war was too fierce, and the Midgard countries were engulfed in numerous conflicts at the time, there weren’t enough Valkyries, so the leader of the Valkyries, Valkyrie Disi herself, paid close attention to the war and thus noticed Li Miaozhen’s outstanding performance.
The Valkyrie is the leader amongst all the Valkyries, and the sole Divine among them. It is rumored she is also Odin’s illegitimate daughter, but without the parties involved, such matters are unclear.
Other girls chosen as Valkyries were mostly princesses or nobles from various royal families. They vowed to serve the Divine, thus being chosen by the All Gods to become the Virgin Warriors of the Divine Country, tasked with helping Odin select warriors, guiding their souls to the Heroic Spirit Hall to become Heroic Spirit Warriors.
However, due to their noble birth, these Girl Warriors found it difficult to become Divines, and the strongest of them were merely Demigods; therefore, their Life Span was limited, and they required selection generation after generation.
At the same time, because they often traveled to the Middle Realms, and occasionally encountered Giants, if killed by these Giants, it would result in losses among the Girl Warriors.
The Valkyries numbered as few as three at their least, and only as many as sixteen at their most.
Because truly suitable candidates for Valkyries were so scarce, sometimes the Valkyrie would have no choice but to descend to the Lower Realm herself, selecting the souls of warriors on the battlefield to guide.
Li Miaozhen’s performance was praiseworthy, and it also made the Valkyrie take notice.
Such a female warrior, whose individual strength might not be too strong, but still good enough to become a member of the Valkyries.
Therefore, the Valkyrie came directly to Li Miaozhen, inviting her to join Odin’s ranks, to serve the King of All Gods.
Li Miaozhen hadn’t anticipated such fortune.
She had only intended to mingle in this kingdom for a while. After getting to know the world, she planned to plunder all the royal family’s records about the Divine, never expecting such a grand stroke of luck to fall into her lap.
What could a mere royal family have recorded about the Divine compared to what she could collect personally in the Divine Realm?
Thus, Li Miaozhen hesitated for only a moment before accepting the offer. With the Valkyrie to take the blame in front, it was unlikely that any Divine would keep tabs on her, allowing her to ensure that her true identity would not be exposed to the utmost extent!
