Chapter 486: Killing Blow
A massive vortex suddenly appeared in the pitch-black Space. Death Aura swirled around the vortex, and a huge White Bone Finger extended from the center, gently pressing downwards.
The Space trembled. The Circulatory Heaven Star Great Array formed by over twenty thousand Heavenly Soldiers instantly shattered like bubbles. The Star Curtain completely buckled inwards, as if it would be pierced through in the next moment.
Seeing that the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Array, along with the tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers, were about to be casually crushed to death by the White Bone Finger, a vortex suddenly appeared in the Sky again. A Golden Light plunged into the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Array.
"Change formation! I'll take the lead!"
Following a soft shout, two Golden Light Pillars rose from this Space, like the Sun and Moon appearing together in the sky. A colossal Vermilion Candle Dragon shadow with a human face and snake body appeared beneath this Space. The Candle Dragon Body unfurled, covering the Sky like a black curtain stretching for billions of miles. Within the black curtain, three hundred and sixty-five Constellations shone like bright lamps in the dark night, each one lighting up, brilliant as the sun.
Among the numerous Stars, Starlight constructed hundreds of vast Palaces. These Palaces numbered according to the Circulatory Heaven, and above each Palace stood a phantom Shadow. Three hundred and sixty-five Star Lord phantoms were surrounded by eighty-four thousand Host of Star Fiends phantoms.
Although these three hundred and sixty-five Star Lords and eighty-four thousand Host of Star Fiends were merely Position/Status condensed from Starlight, with the Candle Dragon leading the Formation, the Force of this imitation Circulatory Heaven Star Great Array instantly surged a hundredfold.
The Light and Heat emitted by Stars within dozens of Light-years were gathered by the Circulatory Heaven Stars and empowered the Candle Dragon Body. Tang Song's Candle Dragon Body's Strength instantly increased by more than ten times.
Its massive Body Size coiled across the Space, even surpassing ordinary planetary systems at one point. Its Eyes opened and closed, like the Sun and Moon appearing simultaneously!
As the Candle Dragon's Sun Moon Golden Eyes looked towards Death, a massive vortex also appeared above its head. Thunderclouds surged around the vortex, and a huge Fair-Skinned Flesh Pillar extended from the vortex—
The White Bone Fingertip and the flesh-colored Finger touched. Death Aura and Starlight intersected. The White Bone Finger trembled and retracted back into the vortex.
"Hmm?"
Death's Eyes flickered with Radiance, like an Extinct Volcano that had been dormant for millions of years suddenly erupting.
Looking at the giant Candle Dragon stretching across the Space, Death finally became interested. Her lazy face, hidden beneath the White Bone Mask, also showed a hint of seriousness. She extended her Right Hand and directly grabbed towards the Candle Dragon's Body.
As the Incarnation of the concept of Death in the Marvel Multiverse, when Death became serious, the Pressure emanating from the descending Palm alone caused Old Demon Dragon, Clark Kent, Carol, and others to feel a sense of suffocation.
Under this Pressure, the Starlight condensed by the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Array flickered like candlelight in the wind. Over twenty thousand Heavenly Soldiers simultaneously spat out Blood—
"Wade Wilson!"
In the main Formation Core of the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Array, Frank, who had transformed into the Zhu Yan True Form, felt his entire Body's Bone crackling under the Pressure from the Palm above his head. Under the heavy Pressure, he felt as if the Void Space beneath his feet was cracking.
This was still with the Candle Dragon above bearing most of the Pressure.
Seeing that the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Array could no longer hold on, Frank used his Trump Card as instructed by the Boss.
With Frank's shout, a Shadow soared into the Sky, heading towards the descending Palm—
In the shocked gazes of Old Demon Dragon, Clark Kent, and Carol, Wade Wilson, who had been thrown out, directly grabbed the Palm in the Sky and gave it a loud kiss.
"Beautiful lady! Oh, why are you still barefoot! The temperature here is so cold, it makes my heart ache!
This is a gift I specially chose for you, a pair of Valentino high heels! These are haute couture, they cost me tens of thousands of US Dollars! The moment I saw these shoes, I thought of you!"
The descending Palm in the Sky stiffened, and then Wade Wilson instantly appeared beside Death.
This unruly fellow, having just arrived beside Death, directly reached out and wrapped his arm around Death's waist. Under everyone's gaze, he even grabbed her chest.
Death, as one of the Five Great Cosmic Entities, is as ancient as the entire Marvel Multiverse. As an Innate God-Demon, her Position/Status is only equal to Eternity and the other four great Existences.
These few Innate God-Demons in the Marvel Multiverse do not pursue a higher Dao like those Innate God-Demons in the Jambudvīpa World, nor are they chased by Post-Natal Races like Yokai or witches.
The perspective of the high and mighty Five Great Cosmic Entities has always been one of looking down upon countless Universes.
Even though they hold the Truth of the Multiverse—in a sense, these Five Great Cosmic Entities, who have stood at the apex of the Multiverse since their birth, are exceptionally simple.
Like Galactus, one of the Five Great Cosmic Entities, he is simply a glutton, constantly eating since the birth of the Universe—
It has been like this for billions of years. Of course, his Food is quite special; he likes to feed on Planets, especially those rich in Life Aura.
And Death, no one has ever dared to be presumptuous in front of this Goddess who controls the Rules of Death. Even Thanos, her suitor, held her high up in the Sky—
To be honest, Death had never had such an experience! It was like a good girl who had been restrained for billions of years meeting a punk who took her smoking, drinking, fighting, and clubbing.
The thrilling feeling made her completely unable to resist! Death stood there blankly, letting Wade Wilson lift her Foot to put on the high heels! After putting on the high heels for Death, this guy even held Death's Foot and kissed it.
"No!"
In the center of the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Array, a Bellow faintly came through!
Because the vast majority of the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Array's Strength was used to resist Death's Attack, the Black Hole's Force was greatly weakened. Thanos seized this opportunity and successfully escaped from the Black Hole.
Who knew that the moment he escaped the Black Hole and looked up at the Horizon, the Scene made his Eyes split with rage! "You wait, I will definitely return. I will wash away this humiliation with your Blood today!"
Blood Water hung from Thanos's Corner of the Eye. He glared fiercely at the two Figures above his head. He reached out and grabbed. Near the Black Hole, a point of Golden Light flickered, and then a tattered Golden Armor flew over and put itself on Thanos.
The Golden Armor transformed, quickly forming a set of Golden Ant-Man Suit. As Thanos pressed the Switch on his Belt, the Pym Particles on his waist instantly activated.
Leaving behind a harsh remark, the lingering sound echoed, and Thanos completely disappeared from this Space—
After activating the Ant-Man Suit, Thanos felt himself entering a colorful Quantum Tunnel—
Just as Thanos was searching for a nearby Parallel Universe, a Formation Diagram suddenly flew into the Quantum Realm. Within the Diagram, Primordial Purple Qi transformed into a Golden Bridge. On the Golden Bridge, Yin Yang Qi intertwined endlessly, like two Fish, one black and one white.
The moment the Diagram appeared, Thanos was instantly Immobilized in place, unable to move at all. The next moment, he was swept into the Diagram by the Golden Bridge.
The True Form Diagram of Yin Yang Taiji shook, and Thanos completely vanished! And in the Reality Dimension, the slight feeling of his curse disappearing was not even as strong for Death as the feeling of Deadpool holding her Foot and gently kissing it!
Thanos? What is that Thing? After annihilating Thanos, that Taiji Diagram flew back into the Quantum Realm—
The Taiji Diagram swayed leisurely to the edge of a nebula-like World, unfolded again, and wrapped the nebula.
And outside this nebula, there was not only the Golden Bridge formed by the Taiji Diagram, but also two plain Sword Implements suspended in the Sky. Their sharp Sword Qi severed all Creatures and Matter that approached this nebula.
Looking closely, one would notice countless golden threads heavily wrapping the entire nebula—
Late at night, at the Shop Entrance of a Convenience Store, a Waiter who had just finished boiling a pot of Oden walked out of the Convenience Store and looked up at the Sky. The Stars twinkled everywhere. These Stars were like golden threads.
The Sky seemed to have a giant Golden Net! Brilliant and dazzling.
This strange and beautiful Scene instantly made him lose himself. He couldn't help but run back into the Convenience Store and call out to a Man wearing a Black Windbreaker and holding a beautiful woman's hand.
"Zhao Li, come out and look quickly, the Space is so beautiful tonight!"
The Man glared at him irritably: "Can't you see I'm busy with important Matters? If you want someone to watch the Stars with you, go find your Xiao Ya!"
"Come on, let's continue, beautiful woman. From your Palm lines, your Career Line is smooth sailing, but your Marriage Line is a bit bumpy,——" "Then what should I do, Master!?"
"Don't worry! I have a Method! It's getting late, let's go out and get a Room to talk properly!"
"Hmph! I can tell you have bad intentions!"
"How could I? You are my Medicine!"
Xia Dongqing watched the departing Cherokee, shook his head, walked to the Counter, and brewed himself a Bowl of noodles! He had just poured hot water into the noodles and was about to grab something from the Counter to weigh down the noodle Bowl when he suddenly noticed a golden Orb the size of a ping pong ball on the Counter.
"What is this Thing?"
Xia Dongqing curiously prepared to pick up the Orb, but the Orb suddenly bounced, turned into a Golden Light, and disappeared into his Eyes.
"What's wrong with me!"
Xia Dongqing was momentarily lost in thought, but then seemed to forget about the golden Orb. He casually found a Book to press down on the instant noodle container and began tidying the Shelf.
Lowering his Head, Xia Dongqing was completely unaware that the Golden Net in the Sky was slowly shrinking, seemingly filtering something.
Crack!
In the Dimensional Void, above the Canopy Carriage Cloud Bed, Tang Song casually put his hands behind his back! Concealing his withered Right Hand index Finger, which was like White Bone.
He looked towards the Direction of the Reality Dimension, his Gaze filled with regret:
"What a pity. Even if the three hundred and sixty-five Star Lords cannot return to their positions, if even one-third of the eighty-four thousand Host of Star Fiends were gathered, the outcome today would be uncertain!"
The Circulatory Heaven Star Great Array created by the Demon Emperor of the Ancient Monster Court requires the three hundred and sixty-five Star Lords leading the Formation to be at least Golden Immortal level Existences. The eighty-four thousand Host of Star Fiends are also Demon Immortals who have achieved Cultivation.
In its prime, the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Array set up by the Monster Court had Great Principle level Monster Gods and Monster Saints sitting in the Formation Core.
Once the Circulatory Heaven Star Great Array was deployed, it could even contend with Half-step Transcendence Heavenly Venerates and Sect Leaders. Its Power could be said to be the greatest in the Jambudvīpa World, comparable only to the Twelve Capital Gods and Demons Great Array and the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
Unfortunately, he currently doesn't even have enough True Immortals at the Skyfather level to count on one hand, let alone Golden Immortals or Great Principles. Otherwise, he could have exchanged a few Bout with Death.
Tang Song looked at the Void Space below with lingering interest, his Gaze falling on Zeus, who was suddenly standing there in a daze. The Pantheon, huh? Although they are a motley crew, they are not entirely useless.
Zeus, who was gazing at the Cloud Top in the Void Space, suddenly felt a chill down his spine. Before he could understand what was happening, "Zeus, save me!"
Zeus suddenly felt his Foot being tightly grabbed by something. He looked down and saw a mass of Black Mist gathering and dispersing at his feet. The Black Mist rolled, forming a face he was very familiar with.
"Hades! You're not dead yet!"
Looking at the Blood Hand that was tightly gripping his ankle, Zeus said with some surprise.
His Gaze subconsciously looked at the black Space Rift stretching for thousands of meters. Under such an Attack, Hades could still survive. His brother truly had a tough Life!
Tsk tsk tsk, what a pity. If Hades were gone, then Persephone! Thinking of his fair-skinned, plump sister-in-law, Zeus's Eyes immediately became unfriendly towards Hades.
Hmm, like Ximen Qing looking at Wu Dalang.
A Golden Lightning flashed beside Zeus's hand. But before he could make a move, a cold Thing was suddenly placed across his Neck.
Feeling the bone-chilling coldness on his Neck, Zeus's Body stiffened! He very cautiously, little by little, lowered his Eyes, looking at the Blood-Colored Longsword resting on his Neck.
This Longsword, which emitted a strange Blood-Colored Light all over, had a faint Bloodlight flowing on its blade, as if it were a Living Being. The hilt was tightly held by a child of eight or nine years old.
Looking at the girl of eight or nine, wearing a dark princess dress, Zeus's heart instantly relaxed. He forced a benevolent smile onto his face: "Little friend! Are you trying to scare me with this Longsword?"
"You're still young, don't make such jokes. I am Zeus, King of the Gods. Your Sword cannot hurt me!"
Hela gently shook her Head, her lips pursed into a line slightly opening and closing. She looked at Zeus with contempt: "Long time no see, Zeus!
You are still so shameless. If you hadn't been the first to run away back then, your Olympian Pantheon's Forces might not have collapsed so quickly!"
"Although I hate Odin, as a God King, he at least knows how to lead the Charge. And you, you are not a qualified King!"
Being mocked like this by an eight or nine-year-old girl, Zeus's Complexion instantly turned crimson: "What do you understand? Do you expect me, with such a noble Identity, to face danger like those ordinary Forces? Besides, as a God King, I have to directly confront Odin and the Ancient One. Compared to those Forces, I face the strongest Enemies!"
Hela shook her Head and sighed: "But when Asgard's Forces broke through Mount Olympus, you were nowhere to be seen. Not just you, Underworld King Hades and Aquaman Poseidon were also nowhere to be seen!
As a King, you actually abandoned your Kingdom and fled first. You are a piece of Junk. That's why your Legion performed so poorly, not even lasting a few rounds of Attack under my hand!"
Zeus's Body stiffened. He looked at the Hela before him in disbelief: "Who are you? How do you know about the Matters from back then?!"
"Have you forgotten me? I remember both of your Children were beheaded by my own hands! Apollo's Reputation was greatly exaggerated, yet he was not worth a single Strike. It's just a pity I couldn't fight Athena back then!"
A hint of melancholy, like an adult's, flashed across Hela's small face.
"You are Hela!" Zeus looked at Hela's face and vaguely saw that familiar Shadow.
The Figure who led the tide-like Legion of Spirits of the Dead to flood Mount Olympus, that nightmare-like Figure that once lingered in his heart, appeared before him once again.
Images of several of his Children's tragic deaths instantly appeared in his mind. Zeus Bellowed and raised the Thunderbolt in his hand, stabbing towards Hela.
Hela, however, was one step ahead. With a slash of the Longsword in her hand, a Wound immediately appeared on Zeus's Neck. Hela's Sword seemed to have cut through Zeus's Great Artery, and golden Blood Water flowed down profusely.
The Sword Light separated from the Blood-Colored Longsword devoured the Blood Water flowing from Zeus like leeches.
Zeus retreated a hundred meters as if he had seen a Ghost. He desperately covered the Wound on his Neck with his hand: "What kind of Demonic Artifact is this Sword?"
Zeus could feel that the Wound cut by this Sword seemed to inhibit his Body's regeneration, and a strange Power seemed to have entered his Inside the Body, constantly Devouring his Life.
This couldn't help but remind him of the infamous Black Death Sword in the Universe, under which many Gods had died.
Waving the Longsword in her hand, Hela narrowed her Eyes and chuckled softly: "This is my Blood God Sword. This Sword weighs thirty-six tons and contains thirty-six Heavenly Stem Restrictions. Each Restriction is formed by a Blood God Clone I nurtured. If injured by this Sword Qi, Essence Blood will instantly be Devoured completely! How does it feel, Zeus!" Hela laughed happily: "As a Skyfather level God King, your Essence Blood is enough to raise the Quality of this Sword of mine by another level!"
Zeus hadn't had time to answer when Hela swung down the Longsword in her hand. Instantly, the Void Space was dyed red by the Sword Qi filling the Sky—
Those Sword Qi were like Living Beings, transforming into Blood Mist filling the Sky. Although each Sword Qi clearly shone with Cold Light, upon closer inspection, they seemed to be Shadows.
These Sword Qi surrounded Zeus. Zeus desperately swung the Thunderbolt in his hand, summoning Thunder filling the Sky, trying to dispel the Blood Mist around him.
But there was a strange Power inside his Body constantly Devouring his Life. Soon, countless tiny Bloodlight burst out from his Body.
Every Blood-Colored Sword Qi that landed on his Body caused his full and plump Body to wither like dry wood—
Although Zeus's Divine Power inside his Body continuously repaired his broken Body, under the great Golden Light, as a piece of Flesh and Blood was Devoured by the Sword Qi, new Flesh and Blood immediately grew.
But before this piece of Flesh and Blood could fully grow, more, denser, faster, and more powerful Blood-Colored Sword Qi struck towards him again.
