NOVEL WEB Chapter 226 Trap
In the middle plane of Hell, far beneath the surface, the All-Knowing God handed the divine crystal to the upper hand of the Furious Sun God, "I have a question, I wonder if you could answer it for me?"
Due to the previous use of Lu Hong by the All-Known, the Furious Sun God still had not forgiven the other, but due to the current overall situation, he temporarily put aside this grudge.
The Furious Sun God glanced at All-Knowing and spoke, "Aren't you the one known to be omniscient and omnipotent? Can't you guess it yourself?"
All-Knowing gave a bitter smile, "If I were truly omniscient and omnipotent, would I be in the state I'm in today?"
Seeing All-Knowing admit as much, the Furious Sun God did not press him further, "Ask."
"Aren't you always a follower of the War God?"
"Yes," the Furious Sun God seemed to have some understanding of what All-Knowing wanted to ask and immediately spoke, "You're curious why I've always been cold toward the War God, right?"
"Yes, from what I know of you, you should be a devout believer of the War God, but I don't understand why you didn't support him at the meeting that day."
First, the Furious Sun God absorbed the energy from the divine crystal to restore the power of the constructs on his body; then he replied, "Because I felt that he was not the War God."
"Not the War God?" All-Knowing was somewhat astonished. Could there be falsehood in the identity confirmed by the Great Bright Heavenly God?
The Furious Sun God took a deep breath and continued to explain, "To be precise, he is not the War God I once knew. The War God I knew was nearly invincible, having led our human race several times deep into Hell, wielding a holy sword, instilling fear in countless demons with his might, like an invincible general leading our human race to bloody battles and carving out the future. However, when I saw this War God for the first time, I felt something was wrong. Although the aura he radiated and the holy sword he carried on his back seemed authentic, perhaps as he said, he truly is the War God, but he is newly ascended and came through a crossing, different from the one I knew. Hence, I do not acknowledge him."
Hearing the Furious Sun God's explanation, All-Knowing did not continue to speak, and also took out a divine crystal to restore the power to his body's constructs.
After a while, the Thunder Flash God returned from the outside world, heaving for breath and sat down right between the two.
"How is the situation outside?"
The Thunder Flash God shook his head slightly, "Not good, we're probably not going to make it out. For some reason, Hell is currently heavily guarded, with Demon Lords stationed at key passages, making it very difficult for us to silently enter the next plane."
"I said we must find the Great Bright Heavenly God, but you refused to believe," Furious Sun God cast a glance at the Thunder Flash God, "Hell is vast, with numerous planes. Without reliable coordinates, we probably won't even come close to the last three major planes, let alone create an opportunity for that Lando."
Faced with the accusation from the Furious Sun God, the Thunder Flash God did not become angry and spoke, "Then what do you suggest we do now?"
Furious Sun God laughed, "You're asking me? How should I know?"
"At least you've been to Hell before." All-Known joined the conversation, "Go on, we both will follow your lead."
"Fine," Furious Sun God nodded, "If you ask me, let's not go out for now. Just survive. After all, there's still a long time before the Demon King's revival, and the demons can't stay on guard for a hundred years."
"Alright," the Thunder Flash God also had no better solution. On this trip outside, he barely escaped being chopped by a Demon Lord; if it wasn't for his speed advantage, he probably wouldn't have been able to return.
Now they could only hope that the other team could successfully pass through the demon blockade and infiltrate near the throne to carry out the plan.
Meanwhile, the perspective switched back to Lu Hong. After finalizing the action plan, under Song Quan's arrangement, everyone entered Hell once more.
The moment they landed, Lionheart struck with full force, starting the Lion King's descent state, with golden Divine Power surging violently.
Looking up, they saw sitting before them a hundred-yard giant holding a huge mace, his face brimming with smiles, "What's this? Brought back some help?"
"Liesuotus?!" Song Quan turned deathly pale, hastily attempting to open a portal for escape, "We can't beat him, let's retreat!"
Unfortunately, the space around them seemed sealed, preventing further teleportation.
Without need for guesses, Liesuotus laughed and said, "Don't bother, the Shadow Demon has helped me seal the space pathways. Unless you can defeat me, none of you are leaving here."
Hearing this, both the Wolf God and the Serpent God transformed into their animal forms, entering their strongest combat states. Since there was no escaping: "Then let's fight!"
Lionheart stared intently at Liesuotus and said with a heavy tone, "Fight!"
As the word fell, the three great beastly Heavenly Gods charged at Liesuotus, Lionheart God taking him head-on, while the Wolf God and the Serpent God flanked from left and right.
Lu Hong and Dog wanted to join in the fight but were held back by Song Quan, "Why bother? Together we still can't beat Liesuotus. Help me think of a way to break the space seal now; fleeing is the only reality."
Lu Hong looked at Song Quan, "Are you confident in breaking the Space Sealing?"
"We have to try, don't we? The hope is slim, but compared to defeating Liesuotus, the odds are at least a bit better."
Upon hearing this, Lu Hong nodded, "Puppy, you help him, I'll go help Lionheart."
As Lu Hong's words fell, a raging storm swept across the heavens and the earth. Lionheart was sent flying into the sky by Liesuotus' hammer blow, smashing against the crystal barrier of the spatial seal.
The Wolf God and the Serpent God, though they were approaching Liesuotus, produced attacks that were nothing more than an irritation to him. They were swept aside by Liesuotus and cast out heavily.
Lionheart God stood up again, his golden Divine Power continually condensing. He launched another Lion King Fist at Liesuotus.
Facing Lionheart's full-force strike, Liesuotus showed interest, abandoning his weapon and raising his own fists to meet the attack head-on.
A terrifying impact once again swept through the heavens and earth; Lionheart God was sent flying backward again, while Liesuotus remained nearly unshaken, clearly displaying his superiority!
"Are you not coming to help?!" Serpent God, enduring the pain, scolded Lu Hong and the others.
They had always heard from Song Quan about how fearsome Liesuotus was, but only upon seeing him did they realize that he was ten times fiercer than they had imagined.
Lu Hong immediately stopped holding back, activated his descent as a Heavenly God, took up the holy sword, and began to charge up Eternal.
Lionheart God had seen the power of this sword move of Lu Hong's and stepped in front of him, "You charge up a bit longer, I'll take the hits for you."
"Don't be so tense." Faced with Lu Hong's charging move, Liesuotus showed no desire to attack, "I'll just stand here. However long it takes for you to charge, I can wait. I really want to see what kind of powerful offensive Skill such weak humans can have."
Faced with Liesuotus' contempt, Lu Hong was somewhat annoyed, damn it, really looking down on himself, huh?
Hearing this, Lu Hong also put all his strength into it, continuously pouring Divine Power into the holy sword.
As the charging time increased, the sword's energy also grew stronger and stronger.
The time lasted a full forty minutes, until not a single thread of Divine Power could be compressed into the holy sword any longer.
And not far away, Liesuotus's expression changed from initial disdain to seriousness.
Because from the might of this sword, he felt a threat.
Lionheart God, step aside.
Lu Hong looked up at Liesuotus, "Are you... ready?!"
Liesuotus picked up his mace and said solemnly, "Come on, let's see the power of your sword."
"Okay!"
As the sound fell, the world turned deathly white.
Liesuotus's heart shook as he watched the sword light slashing toward him.
Fortunately, the mace had already been raised to his chest.
Before his vision could recover, he heard a crisp shattering noise.
The Sword Qi did not cause much destruction; all its force was concentrated on Liesuotus.
When the white Divine Light dissipated,
Liesuotus was still standing in the same spot, but the mace in his hand had fallen to the ground.
Seeing the unmoved Liesuotus, everyone's hearts sank to the bottom.
For a moment, no one moved. Wolf God and Serpent returned to Lionheart's side, waiting for Liesuotus to make his move.
After a while, Liesuotus came back to his senses and fixed his gaze on Lu Hong, "Who are you?"
"The Human Race, War God."
"Indeed." Liesuotus nodded, "You do have some skill. In that case, I'll kill you first!"
As soon as he spoke, Liesuotus charged at Lu Hong like a cannonball.
Lu Hong, targeted by Liesuotus, instinctively wanted to dodge, but within Liesuotus' certain-hit domain, how could he possibly escape?
