Chapter 465: Everyone Has Arrived, Seal the Field
Black blood welled up from underground once more, and a figure slowly emerged alongside the rising blood.
It was a woman of graceful figure; her black hair fell to her calves, and blood and hair intertwined, forming a black garment.
She "surfaced" from the ground, hovering about half a meter above it.
"Huh..." Loki made out her features and said softly, "I've seen her before. She's one of Huaxia's Shenmo Walkers, the one who approaches science."
"Tang Yuhan, known as the Queen of Blood, Fourth Stage strength — not much weaker than us." Someone introduced her.
As if hearing the Gods' Alliance members' words, Tang Yuhan, who had been facing Tang Luo, turned her head and swept a glance over them.
Their faces changed again, an unhealthy pallor surfacing, followed by a flush of red.
The blood inside their bodies seemed to rebel, surging restlessly.
"The Blood of Corruption — has it taken her as host, as a puppet?" These people were no weaklings; they forcibly suppressed the turmoil in their blood and could basically deduce what had happened.
The Blood of Corruption had most likely fully gathered upon this person.
In other words, taking her down would mean truly completing the mission.
But this mission won't be easy to accomplish.
That single glance just now was enough to display the Blood of Corruption's power — just one look made these experts' blood churn uneasily.
If they really fought, even joining forces they couldn't defeat her.
Fortunately, the Blood of Corruption's target isn't them — it's Tang Xuanzang!
He and the Blood of Corruption have been locked in constant struggle, and Shenmo Walkers keep exterminating the other bloods.
The Blood of Corruption couldn't overcome Tang Luo for a long time, so now it chooses to concentrate all its power, intending to eliminate and devour this thorn in its side in one stroke.
This host's English is extremely suited to bringing out the Blood of Corruption's power.
"Let us into the labyrinth, intercept the Wulin Mythology people!" Apollo said decisively.
Interfering rashly in the battle between the Blood of Corruption and Tang Xuanzang would only bring disaster upon themselves.
Better to continue intercepting the Wulin Mythology's Shenmo Walkers, preventing them from becoming Tang Xuanzang's helpers.
With them acting, the Cretan Labyrinth can trap these Shenmo Walkers for a much longer time.
And those weaker Shenmo Walkers, having had their blood and power absorbed — though not dead — have lost all combat ability.
They are no longer enough to affect the final outcome.
What the Gods' Alliance must do is contain Wulin Mythology until Tang Xuanzang and the Blood of Corruption decide a victor.
When that time comes...
Apollo looked up at the sky — Zeus should have appeared by now!
The Cretan Labyrinth kept shifting; the Gods' Alliance members entered together, gathering their strength, intending to deal with the Wulin Mythology people first.
The labyrinth separated everyone — this kind of opportunity isn't meant for one-on-one duels.
The Minotaur didn't follow in to fight; he still had to maintain the labyrinth.
"Kill the hammer-wielder first..." Apollo said.
This person's power is extremely strong, and his impact on the labyrinth is the greatest — unlike other Shenmo Walkers who still retain combat strength and keep searching for an exit.
This guy wields a huge hammer, smashing wildly; he's already destroyed two walls.
He even attracted Shenmo Walkers to gather this way — in the labyrinth, one cannot break the restrictions to fly.
This applies to the Gods' Alliance members who entered the labyrinth as well; they can only proceed on foot.
Moving on foot through this self-shifting labyrinth, the Gods' Alliance quickly appeared before Zhu Bajie.
"Oh?" Zhu Bajie stopped smashing walls and looked at the several people who had appeared. "You really think highly of this old pig, huh? Seven of you at once?"
"... Ah, been discovered?"
A voice sounded from behind Zhu Bajie; Loki's figure manifested behind him, the invisible blade in his hand thrusting straight in.
Utterly silent, carrying no killing intent or sound.
This Trickster God looked more like an assassin.
Zhu Bajie set his Zhen Tian Sui Yue to his side; with a crisp clang, it blocked the blade attacking from his flank.
The blade from behind pierced into Zhu Bajie's back, sinking in, yet failed to cause the slightest injury — like a false phantom.
"Huh?"
Only now did Loki's voice turn truly surprised.
The one appearing behind Zhu Bajie was indeed his phantom; his true body was to the side launching the real attack.
He hadn't expected to be seen through — not something ordinary people can do.
Beneath that seemingly "foolish" exterior hides a sharp mind.
"You're ganging up on me — not very honorable." Zhu Bajie looked at Apollo and the others.
Apollo and the others had no intention of wasting words.
On the Three-Headed Dog's shoulders, two more dog heads emerged; his body swelled, entering a half-beastified state.
Apollo drew his bow, a golden arrow aimed at Zhu Bajie's head, about to loose.
"Roar!"
A beast roar — the Three-Headed Dog charged at Zhu Bajie. At that moment, the tall stone wall beside him suddenly shattered, fragments shooting toward the Gods' Alliance people like cannonballs.
The golden arrow was struck by debris, its power weakened, and Zhu Bajie easily dodged it.
The Three-Headed Dog leapt up, avoiding the incoming rubble, and continued charging at Zhu Bajie.
But the instant he just landed, a dragon claw covered in silver-white scales, both ferocious and elegant, appeared, seizing one of his dog heads.
And slammed it hard into the ground.
"Little dog, where do you think you're going?" Ao Yulie entered half-dragon humanoid form, elegance, majesty, and ferocity coexisting.
Just a little cat perched on his head — the art style looks a bit off.
Behind them, Kongming, the Sword God, and Kratos and his son arrived.
Seven versus seven!
In terms of numbers, they were already even.
"Damn it!"
Someone on the Gods' Alliance side cursed softly.
If not for the fact that they had inexplicably lost three Main God powerhouses during the mission, and that some people hadn't shown up, how would they now be facing the problem of their high-end combat power being inferior to the opposition?
"Boom!"
At this moment, a bolt of lightning tore across the vast sky, and heaven and earth abruptly turned a stark white.
The blinding radiance made it impossible to open one's eyes.
Only after that came the deafening roar of thunder.
Hearts and minds swayed, difficult to control.
"Lord Zeus!"
"Divine King!"
The faces of the few from the Gods' Alliance revealed expressions of reverence and joy.
Divine King Zeus!
The supreme powerhouse of the Gods' Alliance, and also one of the supreme powerhouses among the Gods and Demons Walking the World — Divine King Zeus had arrived!
Originally, Apollo thought Zeus would appear when Tang Xuanzang and the Blood of Corruption decided the victor.
He hadn't expected him to arrive a step early — or could it be... that the battle between Tang Xuanzang and the Blood of Corruption had already concluded after they entered the labyrinth?
"Boom!"
Another loud crash, like a giant wave striking the shore.
The surrounding high walls instantly trembled, and in a split second turned into a cloud of powder, dissipating in midair.
Someone couldn't help but look behind.
At the labyrinth entrance, the Minotaur had already fallen, but should not be dead yet, currently in its death throes, because its Fate Fragment had not yet appeared.
A short distance from its body, a black tide was receding.
Tang Yuhan, possessed by the Blood of Corruption, wore an intoxicatingly beautiful smile on her face, yet the Qi and blood she exuded were extremely dangerous.
A few meters opposite stood Tang Luo, his face pale as gold paper.
On the other side was an old man — though calling him an old man might not be entirely appropriate.
This man's beard and hair were entirely white; he wore a black suit, jacket only, no shirt, his figure tall, a full two meters plus.
His exposed chest and abdomen displayed clearly defined muscles, brimming with masculine vigor.
He possessed a pair of deep-blue pupils like the vast ocean, emanating a majestic aura akin to the Heavenly Father, compelling one to involuntarily want to prostrate at his feet in worship.
"Zeus, he truly isn't dead..."
"These old things don't die that easily."
From among the Gods and Demons Walking the World of the Martial Arts Mythology came a few discordant voices.
Father of Gods, Divine King Zeus!
His true name had long since been erased by the passage of time; now this man had only one name — Zeus.
In the eyes of others, this supreme God and Demon Walking the World was Zeus!
A powerhouse on the same level as the Scarlet Essence Daoist.
Without such a foundation, the Gods' Alliance could not possibly have contended endlessly with the Martial Arts Mythology.
The three great powerhouses formed a triangular standoff; all the Gods and Demons Walking the World looked toward them, none daring to move rashly.
Judging by the scene, Zeus, who appeared last, held a significant advantage — Tang Xuanzang was clearly heavily injured, and the black blood swirling around the Blood of Corruption was also not particularly stable.
Only Zeus maintained the most pristine condition, his momentum astonishing.
For this mission, the final victor has likely already emerged!
"Senior, where are you?" Kongming couldn't help but look toward the sky.
Where is the Scarlet Essence Daoist!
"You're looking for the Scarlet Essence?" Zeus suddenly looked at Kongming and asked.
Kongming's expression changed slightly, as if his whole body had been shocked by electricity; he didn't speak, inwardly astounded by Zeus's strength.
But what shocked him even more was Zeus's words.
"He can't come." Zeus smiled and said, "And... it's possible he'll never be able to come again."
Kongming's heart sank bit by bit.
Zeus had made arrangements to intercept the Scarlet Essence Daoist, and that "arrangement" was most likely the Gods' Alliance's other supreme powerhouse — Odin!
To distinguish him from Divine King Zeus, he was called the God Lord Odin.
The Scarlet Essence Daoist was acting alone; Senior Jiang Shang had not accompanied him. If Odin brought men to set an ambush, the consequences...
"You've surprised me somewhat — when did the Martial Arts Mythology produce such a powerhouse?" Zeus looked at Tang Luo, his tone carrying a hint of sighing admiration.
Tang Luo turned his head, glanced at Zeus, and his slightly withered figure gradually straightened: "Since everyone's here, Bajie, seal the field."
"Okay, Master!"
Zhu Bajie laughed, and the Heaven-Shattering Mountain-Crushing in his hand turned back into the Nine-Toothed Rake.
He hurled the Nine-Toothed Rake into the sky; it transformed into several streaks of light flying in all directions, arcing downward.
Seemingly forming a transparent hemispherical canopy.
Simultaneously, Zhu Bajie crouched down, pressing both hands to the ground.
Black lightning surged, spreading, and in an instant replaced the originally riddled ground.
Like water but not water, like thunder but not thunder.
Gui Water Yin Thunder Celestial River Formation!
"It's been a long time since I last used it, I'm a bit rusty." Zhu Bajie stood up, the nine-toothed rake in his hand reappearing as he gripped it, "Don't move around, or if someone dies, I won't be responsible."
A god-demon walker who didn't believe in evil still moved, and black yin thunder spread out from the void, lightly touching him.
That god-demon walker immediately collapsed to the ground, his vital essence almost completely gone, like a corpse.
"I said I'm not very skilled right now, I can't control the power well." Zhu Bajie said.
Zeus's eyes turned toward Zhu Bajie, showing a hint of seriousness.
The members of the Divine Alliance had solemn expressions……they seemed to have been treated as fish?
Is the angler now officially reeling in the line?
Everyone couldn't help but look at Tang Luo, seeing that his originally pallid face like gold paper had already returned to normal, step by step walking toward the corrupt blood.
As the corrupt blood showed movement, Tang Luo casually waved his hand.
A cluster of pale gold transparent flame appeared, surrounding it, the surging black blood around it ignited on contact, turning into wispy black smoke.
The eyes covered in black looked toward Tang Luo.
"Tang Yuhan" appeared on the face with a clear expression of wariness and fear mixed together, the being acting on instinct felt immense fear.
The fear of impending death!
