Chapter 396: God-Slaying Power, the Gods Flee
"Luode, are you really okay with releasing all the gods like that?" Yatianna stood beside Luode and asked.
Having fought Bosedong for so many years, Yatianna is also well aware that this uncle can break through his own seal bottle.
However, during each holy war, this uncle is basically in a careless state, so Yatianna never bothered to reinforce his seal bottle again.
Coincidentally taking advantage of this opportunity, he let Bosedong escape.
"I'm a bit curious—why is the war god of another world called Qutuosi? Our world's war god is called Arisi, and there's also a Mars warrior named Mars." Yatianna asked curiously.
The war god Qutuosi, who escaped together with the gods, caught Yatianna's attention; although also a war god, she had never heard of anyone named Qutuosi before.
"Their world's war god is called Arisi, and the gods of the two worlds basically share the same name—what is the origin of this Qutuosi? And where did the Arisi of another world go? 'In another ancient Greek world, the war god is also Arisi, but Arisi rebelled against Zeus and was defeated by that Qutuosi, after which the one called Qutuosi became the new war god.'"
"After that, many things happened, and this Qutuosi betrayed Olympus again. Don't you notice? The Qutuosi I placed in the Gemini Palace to guard is actually this guy's flesh." Luode said.
"I see! In other words, does this Qutuosi also possess god-slaying power in his body?" Yatianna's eyes lit up as she asked.
Slaying a god with a mortal body grants a very special power—god-slaying power.
In my world, only the Pegasus constellation during the mythic era had ever slain a god, becoming the greatest sinner of the heavenly realm.
Therefore, the Pegasus constellation became Yatianna's strongest weapon, repeatedly helping her defeat many gods.
In each holy war, the Saints usually just deal with the Underworld Saints; sometimes, a Gold Saint who has comprehended the Eighth Sense Small Universe, with off-the-charts combat power, can barely contend with the Gemini Gods.
But whenever facing the Underworld King in a decisive battle, without exception, I must rely entirely on the Pegasus constellation, and only the Pegasus constellation can secure my ultimate victory.
"God-slaying power—what is that?" Luode turned his head, asking oddly.
Even with my current power, I can only separate a god's spirit from its soul, but truly killing them—especially gods of the Saint world who have comprehended the will of the gods—is extremely difficult for Luode, even impossible.
I can drain a god's spiritual energy, but the god's soul still retains a portion of its origin, possibly falling into slumber, yet its power will slowly recover.
Gods of the Saint world possess an immortal trait; upon entering the will of the gods, the heavens and earth attach an immortal attribute to them, making them very hard to kill.
Even my Olympus Holy Sword can't do it; previously Luode thought Yatianna's god-slaying dagger might have used some special forging method, but now it seems not.
"Didn't you ask me before why my golden dagger can kill gods? Actually that golden dagger is quite ordinary; if you want, I can make many for you, but not just anyone wielding it can kill gods."
But what truly matters is god-slaying power—a very miraculous power; after a mortal slays a god once, they initially obtain this power.
As the number of slain gods increases, this god-slaying power grows stronger, even threatening primordial gods, ultimate power, absolute gods; each time the Pegasus constellation reincarnates.
I will extract a portion of his god-slaying power, then forge this golden dagger; the Pegasus constellation wielding this golden dagger can unleash its maximum power!
It can completely kill gods who have entered the will of the gods, so if this guy named Qutuosi has also slain a god with a mortal body, then he should also possess god-slaying power." Yatianna said.
"I can't be certain! This Qutuosi has indeed slaughtered many gods, but those are gods of another world, and his true identity isn't a pure mortal—he is Zeus's son." Luode said.
Qutuosi slew the gods of the war god world's Greek pantheon, and the gods he killed in mortal form were only the Three Goddesses of Vengeance, the Underworld Queen, the war god Arisi, and the death god Thanatos—all after he gained the power of Pandora's Box and became a saint.
Moreover, frankly speaking, without comprehending the Small Universe, the life-force of the war god world's gods and that of the Saint world's gods are not on the same level; gods are gods of the world, Luode cannot completely kill them, but the gods of ancient Greece, Luode can completely kill them.
I also don't know if, if swallowed by the Ten Tails, their souls would continue to survive due to their immortal attribute.
"A demigod! No way! If he isn't a mortal, he cannot obtain god-slaying power; otherwise, from the mythic era to now, there wouldn't be only the Pegasus constellation as the sinner who slew gods." Yatianna said.
Even during the previous holy war, a younger brother of the Supreme God emerged; at that time, this younger brother had most of his power sealed, and his combat power was even only on par with second-rate gods like the Death God and Sleep God.
The main reason this person intervened in the holy war was to obtain the Pegasus constellation's god-slaying power; he wanted to use that power as a weapon to invade the heavenly realm and overthrow the rule of his older brother, the Supreme God Cronus.
So one can imagine how strong this god-slaying power is! "Truly miraculous! The Pegasus constellation's god-slaying power—no wonder you specially cultivate him each holy war." Luode said.
Compared to other little strong ones, the Pegasus constellation's power is truly Yatianna's greatest weapon.
"God-slaying power isn't easy to cultivate, but as you said, your warriors are my warriors, and my warriors are yours."
"Therefore, the power of the Pegasus constellation will also become your power." Yatianna said.
"Huh! How do you know I want to cultivate god-slaying power?" Luode asked, looking surprised.
"Hehe, it's written all over your face—I'll tell you, the Phoenix constellation won't do; its combat power really can kill a god!"
But he has already accepted your primordial god power, essentially making him a demigod.
Only a pure human, through accomplishing such a god-slaying feat, can obtain god-slaying power." Yatianna said.
If god-eating power could truly be artificially cultivated, then after all these years of holy wars, she wouldn't have only the Pegasus constellation by her side.
"Alright, you first watch them here; breaking the seal I set will still take some time."
"I'm going to find the Supreme God, then have him send us into another universe." Luode said.
It seems obtaining god-slaying power isn't that simple, but Yatianna's Pegasus constellation is indeed a big killer in the Underworld King's mythology.
It seems the mother of Pegasus used some special power to extract Pegasus's soul, thereby awakening Pegasus's Holy Cloth.
If I were to extract the soul of the Pegasus constellation Seiya from another world, could I try to draw out god-eating power from his soul? A Titan god-level heretic magic statue, combined with my own power, I don't know if I could extract god-slaying power.
The world I'm about to go to is truly the main world of the Saint Universe! There, the Pegasus constellation Seiya has experienced countless battles.
Even having stormed the heavenly realm chapter, the god-slaying power he possesses should be the strongest among all Pegasus constellations.
No, that's wrong! Perhaps the strongest Pegasus constellation isn't Seiya; Seiya killed only gods of the gods' will, not even a primordial god.
Moreover, another Pegasus constellation has slain an absolute god; whether there's a connection remains to be seen—once I reach that other world, I'll need to investigate thoroughly.
Taking advantage of the gap as the gods began breaking out of their prison, Luode also used the Supreme God's token to summon Saturn.
Again, a huge virtual spacetime hourglass appeared, and the form of Supreme God Saturn manifested before Luode.
"Looks like you're ready!"
"That's right, Supreme God; I'm now ready. I will go to another world to investigate clearly the death of the Abyss and the matter of the Omega Small Universe." Luode said. "Hmm!" Saturn nodded, lightly waved his palm, and Luode, Yatianna, and the gods in that special prison were all transferred together by Saturn to another universe, into a majestic palace.
"We've arrived; this is a palace I temporarily built. Originally I intended to handle this myself, so I trained some warriors."
"Since you've come to this universe, these warriors I trained are now yours." Saturn said.
Behind Saturn, a large number of human warriors are training in the Small Universe; these people are precisely those who were originally meant to exist as Conqueror Saints.
"I understand, Supreme God Saturn; coincidentally I also prepared a batch—my own Saints' battle attire can be given to these people to wear." Luode said.
Just as I thought, Saturn indeed trained a batch of human warriors—these are the original Timing Saints, and the battle attire they wear.
Aside from the Four Heavenly Kings' armor, which the Supreme God personally crafted, everything else is of the Silver Saint Cloth rank.
After all, as Supreme God Kutoen, he wouldn't ask a god to forge their armor; he simply makes some with a flick of divine power.
"These people have never seen my true form, and they don't know what god I am. After you meet them shortly, just release your own god-level small universe, and they will submit to you." Satuen said.
According to his original plan, besides the Four Heavenly Kings and some special pawns, no fighting warrior would know of his true existence.
So these mortals were selected and have been training up to now; Satuen has never appeared in person.
"I understand, Lord Satuen, I will subdue these mortals." Luode nodded and said.
That would be much more convenient for me to operate! These human fighters trained up, in the eyes of the gods, are actually not much different from toys.
"Are you planning to release some gods from other worlds?" Satuen seemed to sense what was happening in Luode's prison, and then asked.
"Hm! Lord Satuen, I intend to use these divine clans to complete my plan; don't worry, everything is under control." Luode said.
After coming to this world, my and Yatianna's plan has already been activated.
"I only want to see the final result; I hope you don't let me down. Pallas will be revived by me in this area three days later, and then you can go pick him up." After Satuen gave Luode a coordinate, his figure dimmed and disappeared directly before Luode.
After the departure of the transcendent god Satuen, Luode breathed a sigh of relief, then turned back to face Yatianna, and released the love god, fire god, and Kaido from his own space; the sun god Herios needed to continue shining on his personal space planet, so he did not come out.
"Is it really okay for those guys to have escaped?" the love god asked.
She always felt that Yatianna in this world was playing a bit too much; with so many divine souls collectively escaping, although their divine bodies have already vanished, if control is not good, it could be very serious.
"Aphrodite, since Lord Luode has already made his choice, we just need to follow orders; no need to ask extra things." the fire god said.
In another world, Lord Luode had already secretly exchanged the body of Pandora from another world with himself, and helped himself replace his daughter Pandora's body.
Furthermore, using primordial divine power plus the power of the divine small universe, he made his appearance normal; now he can finally be together with Pandora, although that little girl still has some resistance, but she will get used to it.
"Don't worry, everything is under control; love god, you first temporarily stay in the temple."
Kaido, in a while you and I will go together to see how these warriors' quality is.
Hephaistos, it's estimated that you still need to busy yourself a bit more during this period; you also saw that the miscellaneous soldiers trained here are somewhat many, so forge some armor for them! Something similar to the bronze holy clothes will do. Luode said.
The transcendent god Satuen selected warriors numbering several thousand; these warriors basically have awakened the small universe of the sixth sense.
But those who have awakened the seventh sense of the small universe are very few; with so many miscellaneous soldiers, the armor I forged is obviously not enough!
"I understand, Lord Luode, you really are making things difficult for me! I normally wouldn't forge those inferior products." the fire god said.
We can only use some mortal junk materials; fortunately, the mortal materials Lord Luode gave are sufficient. This time the fire god plans to slack off secretly, producing some inferior products, after all they're just for these miscellaneous soldiers to wear.
"Hahaha! Then please work hard for now." Luode laughed and said.
At this moment, a large group of gods also escaped from Luode's prison, but they had just escaped.
Before the escape, the Underworld King Hadisi and the Sea Emperor Bosedong together first used their own divine power to help Zeus and Yatianna of the war god world, mastered the divine small universe, allowing these two main gods to enter the level of the gods' will.
After awakening the gods' will, Zeus's combat power increased greatly, and his soul also obtained a hint of immortality; Yatianna, however, is even more special.
"The prison exit is right ahead; as long as we succeed, we can completely leave this cage." Hadisi of the war god world said.
This time, the mission Luode entrusted to him must be executed perfectly.
"If we go out like this, will there be any danger? Will the god named Luode ambush us directly outside?" Zeus asked.
"Now we have to give it a try no matter what we say! If there is danger, we can only adapt on the spot; otherwise there is no other way." Yatianna said.
"We have a chance; as far as I know, Luode seems to have accepted a mission issued by a powerful existence, so we are probably no longer in the original world." Hadisi, the Underworld King of the war god world, said.
Upon hearing this, the several gods before them were stunned; the several gods of the Saint Fighter world clearly understood that to travel between worlds requires an extremely powerful existence, that is an absolute god! "What nonsense? Traversing worlds like this is something only an absolute god can do." Said the Underworld King Hadisi of the Saint Fighter universe.
"The guy named Luode is obviously not an absolute god, but he can also do this, so not being an absolute god also allows him to go to other universes." Sea Emperor Bosedong said.
"My brother, do you know what mission the guy named Luode has accepted?" God King Zeus asked.
"I heard it seems to be investigating the cause of death of an absolute god." Hadisi of the war god world said.
"What? You're not joking, right? An absolute god dying is impossible; an absolute god could possibly be defeated, but it's absolutely impossible to be killed." The several gods of the Saint Fighter world said with disbelief.
Some primordial gods who have comprehended ultimate power can join forces to drive out an absolute god from their own universe.
The god who created their world back then was driven out in this way; after he was banished, light was born in the universe, countless planetary lives were born, and other gods as well.
But wanting to kill an absolute god is absolutely impossible in their cognition.
Even these ordinary gods who have comprehended the gods' will cannot be killed; killing an absolute god is absolutely impossible.
"Does your world have any object that can kill gods? Or what kind of power?" Yatianna of the war god world asked.
"Could it be, could it be god-slaying power!" Bosedong said with a look of surprise. (End of chapter)
