It was unclear how much time had passed when two colossal figures, half skeletons of pure white and half charred flesh, heavily fell upon the churning sea surface.
The original deserted island, along with the thousands of Magic Beasts upon it, had evaporated due to the sudden explosion.
Looking at the dead silence and desolation at the center of the explosion, a surge of hot blood rushed into Hera’s brain, overwhelming all reason with gushing emotions.
"No!"
Crying like a blood-weeping cuckoo over the sea, Yet, the response to this queen of the heavens was only the roaring of the surging waves, and...
the squelching noise of flesh wriggling!
The giant wielding a sickle and the dragon with only half its head left rose from the sea. Their bodies, nearly half destroyed, rapidly regenerated under the rhythm of the Divine King’s Authority.
Similarly, the nine giants who had inherited the Chief God’s Authority were also reassembling their bodies under the glow of the Divine Emblem.
Under the cover of these towering companions, most of the outer Magic Beasts and giants had also successfully withstood the self-destruction.
After all, the explosion of a Chief God and that of deities are worlds apart in power.
"Bugs!"
"Abominations!"
Enjoying the same treatment as Zeus, Typhon and Kronos, enduring the itchiness of regenerating flesh, couldn’t help but curse at some dishonorable opponent.
"Truly should be dead!"
"The ones who should be dead are you!"
On the sea surface, Hera, who had just learned elegance and tolerance, now had eyes nearly bursting with rage, unheedingly poured her divine power into the Heart-seeking Bow and arrows, shooting repeatedly at Typhon and Kronos, the two main culprits of disaster.
However, facing the two Old God kings and the nine Titan Chiefs, this resistance was doomed to be pitiful and powerless.
The arrows transformed from thunderbolts, hadn’t flown a few miles before being negated by the dense crowds of Sea Beasts and giants they encountered.
Even so, Hera had no intention of retreating or fleeing; instead, her eyes red, she charged toward the thickest cluster of Magic Beasts and giants.
"Mother, let’s go! We won’t make it if we don’t leave now!"
Hebei hurriedly flew over and embraced his mother, who was about to charge forward.
That reckless defiance, it felt somehow familiar, yet strange.
It was just like every time she heard that Father God Zeus was having an affair, chasing lovers in the Lower Realm, acting completely out of control, oblivious to everything else.
But now, something was different...
"Capture them alive!"
Typhon and Kronos, looking at the pair of mother and daughter on the sea, snarled with malicious glee as they issued their command.
By sacrificing blood from the same lineage to them, their power and Authority would be further unleashed. Explore more at Freewebnovel
As for familial love?
Being gods who devoured their own children and like beasts that fed on their own kind, these two ghastly fathers never harbored such a concept.
As the Magic Beasts and giants crowded around and his perpetually struggling mother clasped in his arms, Hebei’s heart turned ice-cold.
This was it...
Just as a swarm of Magic Beasts and giants was about to engulf that fragile glimmer of gold on the sea surface, a misty divine utterance came from the ether, poetic and melodious.
"Proclaim:
I govern slaughter, I govern life;
I harm, I heal..."
This was—
Listening to that familiar voice resonating in her mind, Hera abruptly stopped struggling and looked up following the sound.
Upon the sea surface, amidst a flurry of swirling Chaos, streaks of golden-red Divine Blood floated undispersed, tracing a perfect circle.
—A Summoning Array!
Hera’s originally vacant eyes were instantly filled with ecstasy.
At the same time, realizing the anomaly, Typhon and Kronos looked together at the area covered by the golden-red bloodlight, abruptly coming to a realization.
It wasn’t self-destruction, but sacrifice!
That person had sacrificed himself to summon something more powerful!
Feeling the divinity in the Summoning Array climbing steadily, the two Divine Kings, in unison, pulsed with Authority and charged toward that area of transformation.
This must be destroyed!
"What cannot transcend is in my palm,
What cannot flee is under my gaze,
What cannot resist is my spear’s blade!"
However, a pale hand like jade had already passed through the Summoning Array formed of Divine Blood and, amid the solemn chanting, grasped the withered branch-like spear that had fallen into the sea.
"Trust in me, learn from me, follow me;
Anoint with oil and mark with a brand, grant the righteous forgiveness, and the wicked punishment;
By the precious blood of the lamb, found the blade of judgment,
「Revelation of All Things」, now revealed!"
Accompanied by the lasting echoes, a figure with golden wings crossed spaces, lightly stepping forward, the spear in hand catalyzed by fire and light, transforming into a great flaming palm tree, unleashing the powers of destruction and desolation in all directions.
Aether factors wildly converged around, and red-black inverted crosses of light, emerged point-first from the withered branch-like spear.
"Crack~!"
In an instant, the surging Aether torrent collapsed around the spear tip to its utmost limit, then exploded violently. Everything in its path was affected: space shattered, time stalled, starlight perished, and dazzling colors formed blinding halos. The world was plunged into a chaos where day and night became indistinguishable, returning to the primal chaos.
Thick beams of light shot out in all directions, plunging into the ocean to carve unfathomably deep chasms; sweeping across the land, cleaving mountains and severing rivers; slicing through the sky, dispersing the clouds...
Under the impact of the explosion, thousands of Magic Beasts and nearby giants were reduced to ashes.
Even the Divine Kings, Typhon and Kronos, were forced to temporarily retreat from this blinding brilliance.
"We meet again, the two of you."
The deity who arrived lifted the flaming spear in his hand, looking at Typhon and Kronos with the friendly smile of an old friend not seen for years.
It’s you again!
Typhon and Kronos, looking at the figure before them, as persistent as a lingering ghost, and recognizing that familiar aura, felt their teeth itch with hatred.
The little brat who had tricked them into making agreements in the Elysian Fields!
It turned out that from start to finish, the one who hindered them, who deceived them, was the same person!
New grudges added to old ones, the two Divine Kings’ eyes burned with fury as they roared through gritted teeth.
"You little brat, you are doomed today!"
"Zeus used to say the same thing, truly a family..."
Luo En sighed and shook his head, twelve divine crests forming a perfect ring behind him, like a blazing white crown.
Chief God?
Kronos and Typhon, sensing the power exceeding limits within him, first paused, then scoffed and shook their heads.
"You might have been able to defeat Zeus of now, but that doesn’t mean you can overcome us as we are now!"
"Being able to defeat one of us doesn’t mean you can defeat both of us!"
In reality, as the Chief God of destiny, Zeus was under the greatest restrictions by the Covenant of Fate.
But Kronos and Typhon, already existing in opposition to fate, although constrained by the covenant of The Three Fates, were degraded only to a limited extent, far beyond what a typical Chief God could easily conquer.
Given this trade-off, even if Zeus were to cast down his incarnate spirit, he would likely still be overwhelmed by them.
This was precisely why they dared to incite the Cottus clan to assault Olympus.
It was also for this reason that Zeus and the gods of Olympus needed to harness the power of humans and Hercules’ force of fate to stand a chance in their battle against the Giants.
Now, the Zeus they deemed a worthy opponent had yet to show himself; a mere Chief God wanting to challenge their grand army formed by two Divine Kings seemed far too presumptuous.
Even with the rank of a Chief God, he was no match!
Kronos touched his face where flesh was rapidly healing, pointed to the nine giants behind him who had inherited the Divine Authority of the Titans, and began to laugh menacingly.

"Heh, Chief God? We’ve got plenty here..."
With two Divine Kings possessing the attribute of Immortality and nine Chief Gods, along with an endless number of Immortal Magic Beasts and giants, they could grind down their opponent in this desolate sea of chaos!
Luo En nodded with a smile in agreement, then spoke leisurely.
"Hmm, Chief Gods, I’ve got plenty here as well."
"?"
As Kronos and Typhon stared in astonishment, Luo En gently raised his arms as if embracing the entire sky.
This world, covered by chaos, was explored and illuminated by twinkling starlight.
Initially just a point, like a meteor slicing through the sky, dragging a long and bright tail.
The agile figures descended from the highest reaches of the sky, or broke through the chaotic firmament, with a purposeful plummet.
The sky grew deep and enigmatic, then like a starry sea slowly surfaced, its light still dim.
The next second, all the stars were lit one by one, beginning their descent.
Countless long and bright trails existed like flames, brilliantly illuminating the expansive night sky in unison.
Unlike Typhon’s bands of light that burned the world, it was a more magnificent, advancing beauty.
When the first streak of starlight fell to the ocean surface, a high declaration echoed through the Star River.
"The enemy is before us, gods of Olympus, here, claim your victory!"
The purple-haired Goddess, holding the Divine Shield and the Spear of Victory, mounted on a majestic Pegasus, dive-bombed from the starry sky.
Thousands of Pegasus knights holding Spears also stepped out of the starlight, clustering around their Goddess, charging forward.
The overwhelming army of giants was brutally torn apart in formation, retreating step by step.
"You are, silver of Rapid Shot!"
"You are, Piercing Star of Gold!"
In the intermingled shouts of men and women, day and night shared the sky, as torrential light arrows descended from above, nailing the poison dragon gathering in the sky and the Divine Monsters emerging from the sea on the spot.
The God of Light, Apollo, driving the Griffin chariot, and the Goddess of the Hunt, Artemis, driving the Golden Deer Chariot, encircled from the flanks.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Immediately after, the sharp sound of flapping wings came through, and the battling Nymphs wielding bows flew past, advancing over the chaotic seas, clearing swarming monsters along their path.
Behind them, countless golden starbursts fell, light sand scattered, and figures in blue, silver, and gold Sacred Robes began to appear, calmly unfolding their barriers, spells, and domains.
Bathed in the celestial meteor shower, Luo En leisurely stretched out his arms, seriously looking towards the astonished Kronos and Typhon on the other side.
"Gentlemen, I too can summon help."
Seeing the endless starlight falling from the sky, Kronos and Typhon’s faces turned extremely grim.
