Chapter 696 - 695: Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Full-out War

On the land that had already turned into a sea of fire when the trumpet of the apocalypse sounded, a phantom world, pure and constructed from molten media, appeared unknowingly.

An extremely anxious aura began to rise.

Following this.

The phantom world gradually showed signs of becoming substantial.

Accompanying this.

Was an extremely evil sense...

As the phantom world gradually materialized, one ugly and grotesque creature after another, humanoid or not, started appearing in the phantom world...

They were all looking up at the sky.

Those pairs of eyes were emitting a terrifying red light, revealing hunger, madness, or bloodlust.

Looking at these scenes It made Abigail’s face extremely unpleasant.

It was impossible to simply describe the current situation as worrying.

The Angelic clan had lower deities, and middle deities were directly joining the battlefield, and what more, they lost the concept of death with the support of the apocalypse horn.

Seeing Hell was about to establish contact again with Heaven, and Devils would join, if nothing could be done, this war might conclude even before it truly began.

But what could she do?

She was too careless!

If she had known that her authority would become powerless because of the sounding of the apocalypse horn, she should have at least brought two Ancestor Gods with her on this trip.

If she wanted to brand and summon the main forces of the Supreme God Clan now, her opponents would not let her do it.

She was too confident...

Abigail gritted her teeth.

Just as she felt unwilling, four riding figures appeared on the horizon.

Abigail raised her eyes upon sensing something.

Seeing the four riding figures, Abigail’s heart contracted violently.

Each of these four figures had power not in any way inferior to hers...

Ancestor Gods.

In addition.

Abigail also tasted an irrational power from the four of them.

The power to judge everything...

Being of the same Ancestor God level.

These four could undoubtedly crush most Ancestor Gods under specific conditions.

At this moment.

And they were undoubtedly suitable to exert the power of judgment.

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

Abigail squinted her eyes.

She had underestimated the Star Nebula Great World after all...

Apocalyptic Horn.

Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

These were all recorded in the teachings of the God X teachings, and Athena gave the relevant information about them. But who could have imagined they would be outrageous to this degree without really seeing them?

Who could have thought that the God X Divine Domain would be so desperate

That they would play their trump card right away?

Taking a deep breath, Abigail decisively turned her head.

"Athena, we’re retreating."

Athena nodded silently.

The main force of the Supreme God Domain hadn’t even had the chance to arrive, and the God X Divine Domain had already shown all its cards.

This war couldn’t be fought anymore.

If they continued to resist.

The only result would be the complete annihilation of the millions of warriors loyal to her personally from the God X race, and the total annihilation of the vanguard of the Supreme God race.

It would be a wise choice to retreat promptly, stop the loss and return to the God X Divine Domain to regroup.

Lifting her sword straight up to the sky, Athena was about to give the order.

Just then, a plain voice rang out.

"Monolith, Zhenshi."

Consequently.

A palm-sized monolith rose into the sky from the rear and suddenly enlarged. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a sky-high massive monolith and fell with a bang.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by violent tremors.

The concept of death was re-instilled in the Combat Angels.

The balance of victory tipped again, disappearing instantly.

This unexpected situation came so suddenly.

The Combat Angels didn’t even have time to react, and they were still fighting with their lives.

The enhancement brought by the Apocalyptic Horn completely lost effect. In an instant, countless Combat Angels were slaughtered on the spot, torn to pieces by the warriors of the God X Race and the Supreme God Race.

Faced with such a sudden change, Abigail and Athena were both slightly stunned.

They subconsciously turned around.

And were surprised to find Li Jing leisurely drinking tea at a cloud peak behind them.

Seeing him, they were both taken aback for a moment.

Li Jing’s departure earlier had caught them both off guard.

At this moment, they discovered that someone had not actually left but was drinking tea behind them. For a moment, the two didn’t know what to say.

Damn it!

Even if he was testing the two of them.

Was this really necessary to mess with their heads!?

However, the two reacted quickly.

"All troops hear the command! Hold positions! Establish the formation!"

Athena gave the order crisply.

The power of war was activated.

Red light burst radially around the soldiers of the combined army from the two clans.

The situation had just shown signs of turning, and Athena did not hold anything back.

She unleashed the full firepower of war’s authority.

Moreover.

She reached behind her back and pulled out Zeus’s divine weapon, Lightning, and threw it toward the ground.

"Boom!"

The divine weapon, Lightning, hit the ground.

High above in the sky, the wind and clouds whirled dramatically.

"Rumble, rumble, rumble, rumble!"

Countless angry thunderclaps tore through the sky. As they tore the earth apart, they also interrupted the upcoming materialization process of Hell.

Meanwhile.

With Athena’s full support, the combined army’s soldiers were energized as if invigorated by adrenalin.

The combat angels who managed to survive the sudden change a moment ago were torn to pieces and turned into one corpse after another. Even those with divine positions were not spared.

While Athena was asserting her power in place, Abigail was also not idle, she closed her eyes and chanted quietly with her hands folded on her chest.

Subsequently.

A hexagram magic formation gradually appeared before her.

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse?

Abigail was not unconcerned, but that no longer required her attention.

After Li Jing took action, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse that had originally appeared before the joint army disappeared and reappeared on the other side, clearly going after him.

Did she need to worry about this?

Behind them.

Li Jing sat calmly atop a cloud peak, resting a hand on his cheek as he watched the four horsemen approach side by side. A hint of a smile played at his mouth as he remained still.

The riders quickly closed the distance and ascended to his level, halting nearby.

The two sides stared at each other.

The horsemen dismounted and removed their helmets.

The horseman of the White Horse symbolising Plague was a young man with extraordinary good looks.

The horseman of the Red Horse symbolising War was a woman of stunning beauty.

The horseman of the Black Horse symbolising Famine was a middle-aged man whose handsomeness was overwhelming.

The horseman of the Pale Horse symbolising Death was a gaunt old man resembling a skeleton.

When they removed their helmets, revealing their faces, all four dropped to one knee with their eyes closed and heads bowed.

???

Athena, who stood beside Abigail, was watching behind them.

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse had gone to find Li Jing.

Of course, she had noticed this.

She had originally expected a fierce battle between the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse- powerful ancestral gods with the Power of Judgment- and Li Jing. Who would’ve expected the four to kneel directly?

A puzzled look swept across Athena’s face, but Li Jing showed no signs of surprise.

The Bible of the God’s Teachings recorded.

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse symbolize the end of the world and exist to bring judgment to humanity.

But the truth was not so.

Li Jing had only learnt of this upon their meeting.

They were purely judges.

Strictly speaking, they were neutral and the guardians of order.

They wouldn’t side with anyone.

Under the premise that their domain was invaded, and they had been summoned voluntarily.

Unless something unexpected happened, they would indeed help their domain.

The reason, in essence, was not that they had a relationship with the summoners or anything like that but because the invader disturbed the order.

But this.

The calculations of the divine domain have gone wrong...

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse won’t help them kill the enemy.

Because Li Jing was present on the scene.

Who is Li Jing?

The Watcher of the Star Nebula Great World!

A "top stream" who maintains the overall order of the Great world...

In contrast, the divine domain was just a part of the Great World that had become independent and became part of the divine domain.

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are a group of judges who stand between Heaven and Hell.

Compared to Li Jing, a watcher who maintains the order of the Great World, their status was much lower.

There is nothing absolutely right or wrong in the world.

Judges will always side with order when they appear.

The order Li Jing represents has a far greater priority than the Heavenly Divine Domain, and it is at a level beyond the intervention of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

They cannot possibly be his enemies.

At the same time, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are not fools.

They indeed seem invincible under certain conditions.

But in front of the Big World Watcher, they are simply insignificant...

Observing the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Li Jing spoke in a flat tone.

"The four of you are very good, are you interested in joining me?"

The four of them looked at each other upon hearing this and remained silent.

Noticing this, Li Jing continued.

"Don’t worry, I don’t want you to leave the Judges’ team, I just hope that you can manage more areas in the future to ensure the normal operation of the order."

Upon hearing this, the woman representative of the War Knight slightly furrowed her brows.

"Respected Watcher, we are Judges who stand in between heaven and hell, we don’t have authority over other domains..."

Without waiting for the War Knight to finish, Li Jing waved his hand.

"Authority isn’t an issue, I can arrange it for you."

Hearing this, all four of them raised their eyebrows.

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are absolutely neutral judges, but they also have needs.

As Judges who guard order, the more realms they can intervene in, the stronger they will become, and they can constantly benefit from the stable order to achieve higher levels.

However, before this, they didn’t even dare to dream of such an opportunity.

Other than heaven and hell, they cannot involve themselves in more realms.

From the start, they were strictly limited between these two divine realms.

The Holy Land of the Heavenly God Teachings recorded that they once judged humanity on behalf of the Lord, which was pure nonsense.

Their power couldn’t be projected into the Big World.

Even if it could...

Judging creatures in the Big World privately would be equivalent to a personal affront to the Big World’s Heavenly Taoist...

They couldn’t afford to make this joke.

Exchanging glances, the white horse knight, representing Plague, drew his sword and held it parallel to his hand, advancing it forward.

"Serving the World Watcher is an honor for us, the Four Horsemen."

Seeing this, Li Jing blinked and then understood.

Even if you haven’t eaten pork, you have at least seen a pig run.

Standing up and going over, Li Jing reached out to take the sword, lightly touching the shoulder of the Plague Knight three times. By virtue of the authority of the Big World Watcher, he granted him the authority to travel through the Nine Great Divine Fields.

As the World Watcher,

Li Jing could actually select assistants.

But the threshold for this assistant was very high.

First of all, they needed to be strong enough, and secondly, they had to be absolutely just.

The latter was of utmost importance.

Moreover, this justness was not determined by Li Jing individually, but judged by the Heavenly Path.

There was absolutely no possibility of falsification.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, it was unlikely to appoint successfully.

All sentient beings inevitably have personal desires, and you can’t be completely just.

Li Jing was no exception.

If it weren’t for the previous and successive Heavenly Path of the Universe Great World and the Star Nebula Great World appointing him, he wouldn’t have had a chance to become the World Watcher.

However, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse were different.

They were judges who existed for order.

Compared to the Seven Virtues of Knights that were once prevalent in the West, their existence itself is a powerful restraint, and they are not allowed to be unjust.

Naturally,

The Plague Knight was recognised and given authority.

Conveniently, Li Jing performed the Knight’s Investiture Ceremony for the other three, granting them authority.

The power of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse did not increase instantly, but the jurisdiction of judges naturally "extended" to the Nine Great Divine Fields.

Feeling their "jurisdiction" expand, the four of them solemnly stood up.

"Respected World Watcher, do you need us to do anything now?"

The death knight, whose appearance was as dry and skeletal as a corpse, spoke up, his grey eyes blooming with a captivating intensity.

Li Jing pursed his lips and said,

"The truth of heaven is a bit cruel, and the people helping me can level heaven. As for other places, there may not be opportunities for you to act."

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse remained silent, and with unified motion struck their chests with their free hands in the Knight Salute to accept the command. They then put on their helmets, turned and mounted their horses, speeding off in four different directions.

The truth of heaven,

Is indeed cruel.

Unlike other divine realms where only those with faith can ascend,

Heaven has many humans and Alien Species who have supposedly received redemption, and a significant portion of them are common people with unyielding faith.

In heaven,

They can live peaceful, pain-free days.

However, the truth is,

They are just sacrificial lambs to be discarded if necessary.

The beckoning of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and the link between Heaven and Hell had mostly been restrained by Abigail beforehand.

But then

The horn of Armageddon was sounded...

Li Jing, pretending to leave and hiding with Silent Shadow from the backside, saw it with his powerful divine perception.

The horn of Armageddon sounded seven times in a row, not only granting the angels an immortal and guaranteed victory buff, but also obliterating the world.

Then came the key point.

The sixth of Armageddon indiscriminately eliminated a third of humanoid life forms.

From a close distance,

it only seemed to cause mysterious disappearances among the joined forces of the Alien Species and Supreme Gods.

But that was not the case farther away.

Moreover, Li Jing noticed

that the angels sacrificed were just a small group of misfortunate beings, and a large number of "redeemed" vanished from the ceremony without warning

It was clear.

Their existence was intended to reduce the combat power loss of the Divine Domain during the sounding of the Armageddon horn.

The injustice and filth of this period...

There was no need for Li Jing to point it out, the Four Horsemen were well aware of it.

But in the Divine Domain,

this was the established order.

Simultaneously, it was the only method they used to maintain order when they were threatened in the Divine Domain.

There’s no absolute good or evil, nor is there absolute justice in the world.

As the judged, the Four Horsemen wouldn’t interfere in matters they shouldn’t.

But now with the World Watcher’s command, it would be a different matter.

On the frontline

Athena watched with wide-opened eyes as Li Jing earned the "loyalty" of the Four Horsemen who split off in four directions, aiming to flatten the Divine Domain. For a while, she was utterly dumbstruck.

Could it be...

acceptable!?

Before she could comprehend what just happened, Abigail, standing nearby, successfully sketched out spatial branding through an extended chant.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Sacred light enveloped the brand, falling from the sky.

Soon after,

one by one, powerful Main Gods and Ancestor Gods, along with their God Servants and subordinates, arrived in the Divine Domain.

This...

was the true force of the Supreme God Domain.

Their mammoth main forces numbered in tens of millions in the blink of an eye, with more Main Gods and Ancestor Gods and their forces continuing to descend.

Athena was dumbstruck.

The Supreme God Clan was very strong.

She sort of gauged it.

But she never expected it to be so outrageous...

As to how many more were coming, Athena had no idea.

But if such an army were to descend on the Alien Species’ Divine Domain, it would be only a matter of time before it was completely flattened.

Seeing at first glance,

there were almost a hundred Ancestor Gods descending...

The combined Ancestor Gods of the Alien Species Divine Domain was not even half the number!

With the arrival of her main forces, Abigail was invigorated and confident.

She was almost pushed to the brink just moments ago, her fury was on the rise.

"All members of the Supreme God Clan, follow my command! In the name of the Supreme, flatten the Divine Domain!"

Hearing this command just upon arrival without yet grasping the situation, the eyes of Supreme God Clan’s main forces lit up.

Abigail’s orders amongst the Supreme God Clan implied not only scaling development, but also signified "go wild, kill and loot as much as you can."

With such an ultimate directive upon their arrival, how could the eager Supreme God Clan’s main forces restrain themselves?

Without any discussion,

one by one, the Main Gods and Ancestor Gods led their troops in any direction and shot out as rays of light without uttering a second word, spreading out to find their prey.

Abigail was no idler either, one man leading her vanguard, teleporting out straightaway.

!!!

Athena,

This sister, she abandoned her for fun!

The main forces of the Supreme God Clan scattered, leaving four groups untouched.

These four groups were led by four unidentified people.

Those assigned to the four teams were obedient; when the four leaders didn’t move, they too stayed in place.

Seeing all the other teams depart, the four team leaders turned to look at Li Jing in unison.

As they met their gaze, Li Jing smiled,

"You all go have fun, Qingfeng, remember to bring Athena with you."
