MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again-Chapter 611 - 99: The Rootless Netherworld (Part 12)
Chapter 611: Chapter 99: The Rootless Netherworld (Part 12)
After a long absence of any action from the Netherworld God, the Great Bright Heavenly God Weiwei smiled, "In that case, I’ll show my modest skills."
Having spoken, a golden sun flame slowly rose from the palm of his hand.
As the sun flame ascended, nine massive suns broke through the heavy mists of the netherworld, hanging high above in the ninth heaven.
Each sun burst forth with intense divine radiance, the endless Holy Light scattering across the land.
The Netherworld God’s expression grew serious as he said, "It looks like you’re trying to kill me?"
"To rescue someone from your hands, I dare not hold back," the Great Bright Heavenly God gently pushed the sun flame in his hand, and the nine suns hanging in the sky launched the first strike, plummeting fiercely toward the Netherworld God.
The Netherworld God dared not be careless, spreading his arms wide, innumerable strands of dark energy wove into a vast web between heaven and earth.
The nine suns struck against it, and under the control of the Great Bright Heavenly God, they continuously assailed the dark divine net, breaking through its defenses.
Naturally, the Netherworld God would not let him have his way; under the infusing of divine power, the black divine net became even more formidable; meanwhile, the dark energy also kept tainting the suns, the sun-like Holy Light gradually dimming.
The Great Bright Heavenly God Weiwei smiled, not minding at all, but instead, let the Netherworld God do as he pleased.
When the nine suns turned completely black, the Great Bright Heavenly God’s deadly move truly activated.
That original sun flame, which had been held in the palm of the Great Bright Heavenly God, had passed through the black divine net without notice and now approached the heart of the Netherworld God.
A strong sense of crisis suddenly ignited in the heart of the Netherworld God, and he stepped back half a step.
At the same moment, the sun flame exploded violently, countless swords radiating with Jin Guang burst forth like a thunderstorm pelting down upon the Netherworld God.
The Holy Light had an extremely strong restraint against dark forces, which was also the biggest reason for the Netherworld God’s wariness of the Great Bright Heavenly God.
Being struck by Holy Light at such close range, the Netherworld God naturally could not emerge unscathed; his body’s defenses, like a fragile sheet of paper, were easily shredded by the golden swords, piercing straight through.
Seeing the Netherworld God torn apart, the Great Bright Heavenly God laughed heartily, "Netherworld God, I’m taking the people with me. I hope you won’t hold a grudge when we meet again next time."
Having said that, the Great Bright Heavenly God grabbed those thirteen useless ones and vanished from the Netherworld Continent.
Back in the Star Sea, everyone’s hanging hearts finally returned to their bellies.
"Thank you, Great Bright Heavenly God!"
The Heavenly Gods each expressed their gratitude.
"No need to thank me. You now understand the strength of the Netherworld God, right? Now is not a good time to wage war with the Netherworld God. Just wait."
At this moment, the Scarlet Queen somewhat puzzledly said, "Your Excellency the Great Bright, the Netherworld God just suffered a heavy blow. Wasn’t that a good opportunity to kill her?"
The Great Bright Heavenly God shook his head, "You underestimate the Netherworld God."
Saying so, the Great Bright Heavenly God rolled up his sleeves, revealing his arm, which was covered with black corruption, constantly eroding his divine power.
"I’ve just severely wounded a mere avatar of the Netherworld God. Did you not realize? The Netherworld God’s true form has always been seated in the Underworld Divine Palace, never stepping out."
The words of the Great Bright Heavenly God made the present deities feel a wave of embarrassment. Damn, so it turned out that after all this trouble, they couldn’t even beat one strand of the opponent’s avatar?
"Enough, at least with me showing up, the Netherworld God basically won’t come down to fight personally. You’ll be facing just the ordinary creatures from the netherworld. Of course, remember, even if the netherworld marshals a great army to attack, as long as the other side does not dispatch a Heavenly God, you must not enter the battlefield. Don’t break the rules, drawing the Netherworld God here. Of course, the best strategy is not to confront the netherworld, to submit for the time being and wait for an opportunity."
"Additionally..." the Great Bright Heavenly God glanced toward the True Dragon Empire and began speaking, "Don’t go after that little dragon anymore. Give him time to recover. He’s the only one among you capable of contending with the Netherworld God. This time I will make a thousand visits to the Continent of God’s Grace. If the Ancestor Dragon can be released from its burden, you’ll have to be careful of his retaliation."
The other Heavenly Gods were not familiar with the Ancestor Dragon, but Nuoshan was aware and eagerly asked, "Your Excellency the Great Bright, can you really help the Ancestor Dragon break free?"
The Great Bright Heavenly God slightly shook his head, "I’m not sure. The Ancestor Dragon’s shackles were personally sealed by the three gods; I can only try a little. Now with the divine remnants lost, only the Ancestor Dragon in the entire Star Sea has the strength to rival the Netherworld God. Of course... it’s also not easy to handle if truly released, it’s a mixed bag."
"Lost?" Nuoshan was very confused by the Great Bright Heavenly God’s choice of words.
"Yes, lost," confirmed the Great Bright Heavenly God, "You did not hear incorrectly. I can’t reveal much about the matters of the ancient gods; to understand them, you can only seek on your own. Also, before your strength is sufficient, do not seek your own doom."
After giving a few more instructions, the Great Bright Heavenly God then turned and headed straight for the Star Sea.
And concerning the matter of the fourteen Heavenly Gods challenging the Netherworld God, it was also quickly exposed by the lucky survivors of this catastrophe.
Now that the barrier between the Netherworld and the Star Sea was removed, and there was some contact between the two sides, the news spread quickly throughout the entire Star Sea.
Tai’e looked over the intelligence concerning this divine war, his body shivering slightly. Having ascended to demigod status and touched the power of a True God, he understood very well what it meant to challenge fourteen and emerge completely victorious.
"Father,"
With Eferot’s call, Tai’e snapped back to reality.
"Contact Konstantin and Bu Sheng immediately."
Soon, the three heavyweights of the Continent of God’s Grace were connected through the Magic Vision.
All three seemed to be aware of this intelligence, their moods very somber, and none took the initiative to speak.
Since the call was initiated by Tai’e, he had no choice but to start, "You all know about the war with the Netherworld, don’t you?"
"Hmm!"
Seeing the two nod, Tai’e continued, "With no gods in the Star Sea, how shall we withstand this?"
The question put forth by Tai’e was bound to remain unanswered.
After a long time, Konstantin finally spoke, "Your Highness, the Lion King, what do you think?"
Tai’e let out two heavy words, "Submit."
Nobody argued against this proposal; after all, the Netherworld God was simply too powerful. So many Heavenly Gods had been deployed from the star domain and still could not deal with the adversary. With no Heavenly Gods in the Star Sea, wouldn’t they be crushed easily by the Netherworld God?
"Would the Netherworld God accept it?" Bu Sheng brought up a very crucial question. If they were to surrender, they must first inquire if the other party would agree.
"Let’s try, and if all else fails, we can consider other strategies," said Tai’e. "I’ll handle this matter, and I hope, Konstantin, that you can arrange a path for me."
"Agreed."
After the communication conference, Konstantin went to Nuoshan Duke that very night, who also expressed that if the divine war was real, then submission indeed was currently the best option.
As for the Eagle Alliance, he would go and lobby them himself.
A month later, an envoy from the Beastman Empire knocked on the doors of the Netherworld, traveling thousands of miles to see the Netherworld God.
"The Beastman Empire’s Zhen Luo King, Eferot, pays his respects to Your Majesty the Netherworld God!"
Tai’e was bold indeed, sending his own son as the emissary.
The Netherworld God looked on with interest at the golden lion prostrated in the great hall, and said, "Lift your head, let me see if the descendant of the Lionheart God retains any of the king’s valor."
Upon hearing this, Eferot lifted his head, looking at the stunningly beautiful face before him, and his brain momentarily seized up.
The Netherworld God was very pleased with Eferot’s demeanor, being a woman herself, she too cared about appearances.
"Stand and speak," she commanded.
The voice of the Netherworld God carried a hint of Divine Power, jolting Eferot awake.
"Yes, yes!"
Eferot’s appearance was not frightening. Unlike the average beastman’s unsightliness, his golden mane accentuated his exceptional valiance.
The Netherworld God’s appreciative gaze followed, "Your bloodline’s grade is rather high, bearing some resemblance to the Lionheart God of old. Speak, convey the purpose of your visit."
"Yes," Eferot gathered his thoughts and began, "Representative Eferot, on behalf of all the powers of the Star Sea, requests to submit to Your Majesty, the Netherworld God."
"Submit?" A smile curled at the corner of the Netherworld God’s mouth, "Don’t you struggle even a little?"
"Your Divine Grace is magnificent, none in the Star Sea resist," Eferot bowed once more.
"Accepted, I will take it," the Netherworld God had an internal reluctance about marching on the Star Sea. Now that the major powers of the Star Sea had come forward to submit willingly, she naturally went along with it. However, the lack of bloody suppression did leave her feeling somewhat unsatisfied.
At that moment, the courtiers of the Underworld entered the hall, kneeling they said, "Your Majesty, the envoy from the star domain has arrived at the Divine Palace, requesting an audience."
"Let him in!" The Netherworld God waved her hand, summoning the star domain’s envoy.
This time, the envoy from the star domain was a Third Transition Peak expert. Perhaps because the Heavenly God he worshipped could not withstand even a single strike from the opponent, he felt a profound dread, his legs turning to jelly before he even entered the great hall, and he fell to his knees.
The Netherworld God looked at the envoy with disdain and said sternly, "Crawl in!"
