Chapter 111 The Mountain of Gods Trap
Chapter 111 The Mountain of Gods Trap
The death of Poseidon seemed to be sensed atop Mount Olympus, for a howling wind was now blowing.
However, a dark figure quickly disappeared before anyone could see who it was, even though they sensed it with their mental energy. The figure ran away so suddenly that no one could see who it was before it vanished without a trace.
"That...it looks like Hades?"
"Really? They just ran away like that?"
"Sigh... I hope it's not Zeus."
The group laughed nonchalantly. Their own strength was sufficient, and they dared to come to Olympus because of Ling Yunxiao, a figure who could play an infinite number of cards.
"Since you're back, come in!"
An aged voice echoed from within Mount Olympus. While the others were still bewildered, Nyx's expression changed.
"Cronus, the king of the gods, is in Olympus? How is that possible?"
"It's just a charade; there's no power of the fundamental laws of time here!"
As soon as Nyx finished speaking, Yang Jian shook his head directly; he did have that much perception.
Without further hesitation, the group stepped into this Greek kingdom.
As soon as the group entered, a golden divine light unexpectedly rushed towards Nyx. Before the group could react, Nyx, with tears welling up in his eyes, caught the golden light.
"This is the primordial power of Olympus. Something terrible happened here that caused the primordial power to wither."
Nyx absorbed the golden light into his body and explained it to everyone in a low voice.
Just then, a soft and delicate female voice came from Mount Pantheon.
"Mother, hurry, get out of here, get out of here immediately..."
Aphrodite!
Nyx immediately recognized the voice. As her surviving child, Aphrodite had betrayed her brothers and sisters and had long since become Zeus's lackey. Yet Nyx still stopped in her tracks, not understanding why Aphrodite would warn her.
“Something’s not right here. The timeline here is out of sync with the outside world. Maybe we triggered some anomaly or stepped on some trap when we entered. We’re not in Olympus in normal time; it’s probably at least ten years in the future.”
Wang Mian remained silent for a long time before slowly speaking, his voice carrying a hint of heaviness.
Ling Yunxiao's expression changed. Others might not know what ten years would bring, but he knew it all too well.
"All the gods here have probably been corrupted, and even gods who died long ago may have been resurrected by the source of corruption. We must be careful; there is no turning back now."
If we accelerated everything here by ten years because of us, and if we were to leave now, those corrupted gods inside would follow us back to Great Xia. The consequences would be unimaginable.
Originally, no one really understood what Wang Mian was saying, but after hearing Ling Yunxiao's words, they came to their senses.
Nyx sighed softly. So, Aphrodite wasn't warning him, or that she'd truly had a change of heart. Instead, she was setting a trap for him. If he really softened and left, wouldn't that be the same as taking everything from here to the outside world?
"Since we've decided to charge in, let's not waste any more words."
Just as Nezha opened his mouth to speak, he suddenly took a step forward, his stride steady and powerful, as if containing boundless strength. Immediately afterward, Yang Jian used the technique of "Transforming Heaven and Earth," and his enormous figure instantly appeared beside the three-headed, six-armed Nezha! The two stood side by side, their aura overwhelming.
At the same time, Leng Xuan slightly flicked his wrist. In an instant, a cold light flashed, and an extremely sharp broken blade silently appeared in his hand. The broken blade gleamed with a chilling light, faintly revealing a terrifying killing intent.
However, the beings within the sacred mountain seemed to realize the gravity of the situation and quickly made a decision. Seeing that they could no longer deceive these powerful enemies, a bizarre and terrifying monster descended from the sky like a meteorite, accompanied by a deafening roar!
This monster was truly beyond description. Its entire body was covered with countless hideous and terrifying eyes, some large, some small, some round, some flat, but all radiating an evil and sinister light. Moreover, it possessed four arms of varying lengths, each ending in a grasp of a long-decayed, rotten, and dried-out divine bone!
What's even more chilling is that this bizarre monster is surrounded by an extremely strong and ominous aura of pollution. That aura is like a plague; just one glance at it will cause a splitting headache, as if the entire brain is being torn apart. At the same time, a deep sense of fear and chaos will surge into the heart, almost making one lose their mind.
In an instant, the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen appeared in Ling Yunxiao's hand, and the warm light of the Word Removal Technique fell on everyone, including Nyx, whose eyes were red.
Yes, even though everyone saw this hideous and terrifying monster before them, devoid of any divine aura, Nyx still recognized it at a glance as his daughter, Aphrodite, the Olympian goddess of love.
However, as Ling Yunxiao used the Dispel Word Technique, Nyx's expression gradually calmed down.
"This monster is tainted with a pollution as terrible as the mist, capable of even affecting people's emotions. However, it is merely a mountain guardian. Zeus is still waiting for us at the summit."
"Yunxiao, don't act yet. If you send people over too early and scare Zeus away at this crucial moment, the consequences will be too severe. At the very least, Great Xia cannot afford it."
Wang Mian began giving instructions with a serious expression. Ling Yunxiao, who was about to write, paused and nodded earnestly at him. Although he often overstepped his authority to give orders, Wang Mian was indeed the captain of this squad.
"Yunxiao, cast Red Lotus Karmic Fire on everyone, and be sure to remove everyone's negative status effects as needed. Lao Wu and I will observe from outside. Yang Jian and Nezha will be the main attackers, and Goddess, please assist with Si Xiaonan. Leng Xuan, you can do whatever you want."
The king's expression was calm, his gaze fixed on the monster before him, and he spoke in a calm voice, giving his orders.
Ling Yunxiao was the first to nod in agreement, and the Killing Technique awakened the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, which landed on each person's weapon.
“Leng Xuan, replace the broken sword with Zhong Kui’s Ghost-Slaying Sword. Lend your broken sword to Nezha; he has an extra hand to take it.”
Ling Yunxiao, realizing that Leng Xuan's two usable weapons were unlikely to be easily corrupted, immediately spoke up. Nyx also looked up at the void, and a starlight descended, steadily protecting Yang Jian and Nezha. Leng Xuan, on the other hand, was completely covered by Si Xiaonan's cunning power.
"Tsk tsk tsk... The Goddess of the Night could tell as soon as she arrived that even though she claims to be supporting Si Xiaonan, she really doesn't care about Nezha and Yang Jian!"
Wu Tongxuan covered his face, too ashamed to watch the couple's daily life. Si Xiaonan, her face flushed, glared at Wu Tongxuan. If it weren't for the Goddess of the Night, how could she possibly ignore Nezha and Yang Jian completely?
