Chapter 745: Chapter 228: Slaying Liesuotus
Lu Hong, who should have been smashed to pieces by Liesuotus, was not dead. Instead, he appeared in a dark space where, amidst the absolute darkness, Lu Hong could not make out anything. Yet, he had made the right gamble and the corners of his mouth slightly lifted, âFate Goddess, arenât you planning to show yourself?â
Lu Hongâs voice echoed for a long time, suggesting that this space was very narrow. The Fate Goddess seemed to have arrived in a hurry.
After a long while, a sigh was heard, âDo you really dare to gamble?â
âIf I didnât gamble, how could I have a chance to see you?â Lu Hong said, âSong Quan once mentioned that it was almost impossible to find the Fate Goddess. You can only meet her if she comes to you. So, I had no choice but to force you to show up in this manner. I hope you donât mind.â
As Lu Hongâs words fell, the surroundings instantly lit up. Only then did Lu Hong realize he was actually still in the same place, and in the moment his head was supposed to burst, Liesuotus also got struck by Lu Hongâs Sword Qi. Looking at the frozen figure, it seemed unlikely any harm had come to it.
At that moment, the Fate Goddess descended from the sky, still in the guise of a young girl, but Lu Hong knew she was not the one from the Era of the Gods, but rather, the one responsible for causing her to transmigrate.
With a light touch on the ground, the Fate Goddess pointed at Lu Hongâs forehead, pulling out his Divine Soul from his body, allowing him to move freely.
Freed from his physical body, Lu Hong looked back at his head which should have been smashed and asked with a smile, âIf you hadnât shown up, I really would have been done for, wouldnât I?â
âEven if I had shown up, you couldnât have escaped death. Did you think I had a way to reach the heavens?â The Fate Goddess glanced at Lu Hong, âYou really donât take your own life seriously.â
Lu Hong was not flustered by such an answer and calmly spoke, âTo be able to resolve all my doubts before death, I would have no regrets.â
The Fate Goddess chuckled, âDie without regrets? What about those dear to you? Lando? Danni? Anna? Youâre just going to forget about them?â
âIf you put it that way, the conversation becomes a bit difficult to continue, doesnât it!â Lu Hong replied sarcastically, touching a sore spot. âWith Hell so powerful, what do you expect me to do?â
The Fate Goddess was silent for a moment before speaking, âYouâre not being very righteous here, dragging me into this, are you?â
âThen what do you call sending me to the Era of the Gods? And on top of that, a soul transmigration?â
âDo you think you could ascend to godhood in this era?â
âI suppose I could?â Lu Hong slightly nodded. After all, he had the experience bar from the system, although it was slow to fill, it was still progressing.
âThen youâre mistaken. Back then, Heavenly Gods roamed freely, trampling the will of the world, directly causing the worldâs will to start despising them and inflicting a divine curse. As a result, as long as it is within the Star Sea, no Heavenly God will appear again.â
âIf I canât make it in the Star Sea, I can ascend in the Star Region. Do I have to go to the Era of the Gods? The key is still the soul transmigration.â
âThen consider it my mistake.â Clearly, the Fate Goddess did not want to reveal the real reason and began to give evasive answers.
Lu Hong was speechless, âI am risking my life here to get answers, canât we be a bit more sincere?â
âNo, Iâve appeared. How could you still die?â The Fate Goddess rolled her eyes, âAsk everything you want to ask. If I can answer, I will.â
âThen I want to know if you have any good advice for the transmigrated Beast Heavenly Gods.â
âJust beat them and send them back.â
âYou make it sound so easy. Who can I beat? The Fallen Wolf God? The Shadow Serpent God? Or the Lionheart God?â
âThe Era of the Gods went through many major events. After the rise of the Human Race, they suppressed the Hundred-Leg Race, allowing the Human Race to breathe for over three hundred years. The path of divinity flourished, witnessing the emergence of many talents. Then, in the Endless Forest, the Ancestor Dragon began an expedition, and the Divine Grace Races contested the Demon Beasts in the Star Sea. This war shattered the Divine Grace and split the will of the planes, breeding enmity. Five hundred years later, the World Bridge suddenly appeared from the east of Divine Grace, stretching over the abyss and joining with Divine Grace. Hence, Hell invaded, igniting another Great War among the races. This war was even fiercer, drastically reducing the numbers of the Divine Grace Races. If not for the War God of the Human Race, the humans would have been nothing more than a page in the books. Having crossed over, you must recognize your identity. As the War God, the strongest Heavenly God of the Human Race, who do you say you cannot defeat?â
âThe Demon King. Song Quan said it was only after I and the Lionheart God joined forces that the Demon King was killed.â
âLet me correct you. Had it not been for the Netherworld Godâs intervention, even you and the Lionheart God together couldnât have taken down the Hell Demon King.â The Fate Goddess made the correction, âAlthough you canât defeat the Hell Demon King, there is a special reason for that, which I canât tell you.â
âThat was me at the end of the Era of the Gods, not the me right now. To grow into the strength recorded in the scriptures, I need several hundred years. How about you buy me some time?â
âI canât buy you time,â the Fate Goddess responded calmly, âTry another request.â
âThen tell me what you can do to help me?â Since the Fate Goddess had said she could help him, Lu Hong wanted to carefully consider his options.
âActually, there isnât much to it, I canât actively interfere with the situation in the Star Sea, what I can do is only to capture a segment of the river of time,â said the Goddess of Fate, raising her hand to beckon. A surging river stretched across the void, appearing before Lu Hongâs eyes.
âCapture a segment of the river of time?â Lu Hong was quite curious about this answer.
Immediately after, the Fate Goddess answered Lu Hongâs question with her actions. Under her control, the War God, who once battled fiercely with the Ancestor Dragon and withstood the abyss, emerged above the river, expressionless, without a trace of intelligence.
âI can lend you the strength from the War God at the end of the Era of the Gods, as for how to use it, thatâs for you to decide.â
As the Fate Goddessâs voice faded, the figure of the War God on the river of time turned into a streak of light and entered Lu Hongâs body.
In an instant, Lu Hong felt his Divine Soul grow wildly, solidifying as if it were tangible.
The quality of the circulating Divine Power was countless times higher than his own current Divine Power; who knows how he cultivated over the several hundred years of the Era of the Gods.
âHow does it feel?â the Fate Goddess asked with a smile, âDo you feel this immense power?â
Lu Hong nodded, âIndeed, itâs powerful.â
âThen, do you have any more questions? Ask quickly, as I canât stay away from the river for too long and must hurry back.â
âHow shall I seek you next time?â
The Goddess of Fate pondered for a moment and then said, âCome to the Netherworld, head southwest directly from the Netherworld. According to your strength, travel for three years and you will arrive at the edge of the river. Call me, and I shall come out to meet you.â
âAlright.â
As her words fell, Lu Hongâs Divine Soul was involuntarily sucked back into his body, and time began to reverse before Lu Hongâs eyes, reversing to the moment when Liesuotus swung his hammer.
And Lu Hongâs sword was swung out once again at the same time.
But different from before, Lu Hong was no longer the same as in the past; now having obtained the strength of the War God at his peak, Lu Hong was not a bit inferior to Liesuotus.
The swung holy sword rose slightly to greet the hammer aiming for his forehead.
With a colossal boom cracking the sky, this time Liesuotus was sent flying backward, while Lu Hong took eight steps back and steadied his form.
With a thud, Liesuotus crashed heavily into the ground, his bewildered gaze fixed on his trembling hands. Had he lost? Lost in a contest of strength?! How was that even possible?!
After collecting himself, Liesuotus stood up, his expression dark as he stared at Lu Hong, âWere you playing possum?â
âNot exactly, just had some lucky adventures,â Lu Hong replied.
Liesuotus evidently wouldnât accept this, picking up his hammer he charged at Lu Hong once more.
Lu Hong, on the other hand, opened up a powerful domain exclusive to the War God. In an instant, the two domains collided fiercely, mutually interfering and neutralizing each other.
Realizing his own domain was ineffective, Liesuotusâs expression changed once again, but his attacks did not cease.
Without the guaranteed hit from his domain, Lu Hong easily dodged Liesuotusâs assault, then said with a smile, âNow it is my turn to strike back.â
Before the words fell, a kick landed harshly on Liesuotusâs chest.
The massive force caused Liesuotus to stagger backward repeatedly. Without giving him time to react, the holy sword, with a furious sonic boom, sounded beside his ears.
Liesuotus had no time to respond and hurriedly lifted his hammer to defend.
But it was too late, Lu Hongâs sword was faster, directly striking Liesuotusâs neck.
Luckily, Liesuotus had a layer of protective covering over his body, so his head was not taken, but he was still sent flying a hundred meters, crashing into the dust.
