Chapter 364: Twilight of the Gods
Without the amplification from the God of Cuisine and the Nine-Colored Goddess, Rong Nianbing's cultivation plummeted in an instant.
"No!"
Rong Nianbing's eyes widened in anguish as he screamed.
A passionate lover of culinary arts, Rong Nianbing had a close personal bond with the God of Cuisine and the Nine-Colored Goddess. Watching his good friends fall right before his eyes filled his chest with searing pain.
"I'll kill you!"
With a voice full of venomous hatred, Rong Nianbing activated his divine sense. Seven gleaming kitchen blades appeared behind him at once.
Morning Dew Blade, Sunlight Blade, Ao Tian Blade, Longevity Blade, Xuanji Blade, Sacred Radiance Blade, and Demon Devourer Blade.
These seven blades represented the attributes of ice, fire, wind, earth, space, light, and darkness. They were pseudo-super artifacts—transcending divine artifacts and nearing the realm of true super artifacts.
Rong Nianbing chanted an ancient incantation. His body emitted an incomparable radiance.
Each of the seven divine blades shone in its respective color, intertwining in mid-air. Eventually, they merged into one—forming a genuine super artifact.
Joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, love, hatred, and disgust, fused with the seven elements—ice, fire, wind, earth, light, darkness, and space. The blade glowed with seven radiant colors, infused with the emotions of the mortal world.
"Kill!"
With a furious roar, Rong Nianbing swung the blade with all his might.
His emotional divine power erupted completely. After an initial decline, his strength surged once more.
Unlike before, this time the power-up did not come from the amplification of the God of Cuisine and Nine-Colored Goddess, but from Rong Nianbing burning his own divine seat.
Joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, love, hatred, and disgust, fused with the seven elements—ice, fire, wind, earth, light, darkness, and space. The blade glowed with seven radiant colors, infused with the emotions of the mortal world.
"Burning your divine seat means nothing. In front of me, you're still an ant."
Xiao Yu's expression remained unchanged. The Hades Sword in his hand swept across the air, releasing a power that felt like it could destroy all creation. The aura of the King of the Underworld exploded forth with the sword's swing.
Boom!
Blade light and sword light collided head-on, erupting in a thunderous explosion. A terrifying surge of power blasted outward.
At the center of the collision, Rong Nianbing was thrown back like a kite with a snapped string. Blood spurted from his mouth as the seven-colored divine armor he wore split open from his chest down to his abdomen.
If one looked closely at him at this moment, they would see only horror and despair in his eyes.
Xiao Yu did not pursue him. That last strike had cost Rong Nianbing his divine seat.
Even if Xiao Yu did nothing, Rong Nianbing did not have long to live.
"Ah!"
Just then, another agonizing scream echoed out.
The Asura God, having lost the origin of his divine seat, saw his cultivation drop rapidly during battle with Qian Renxue, and was ultimately defeated.
Qian Renxue's sword pierced through the Asura God's chest. But she had no intention of granting him a swift death. Hating him deeply, Qian Renxue released searing Solar Truefire through her sword, engulfing his body in flames.
Flames far more intense than extreme fire burned his body. This hypocrite, so similar to the Tang God King, howled in agony. The sound chilled the hearts of all who heard it.
"Stop, Angel God!"
The Evil God King, closest to the Asura God, roared in anger at the sight of his comrade's suffering.
"You still have the mind to worry about others?"
Shaka's calm voice rang out. Radiant golden light burst from his body, like a giant sun rising slowly in the sky.
"Shadow of evil, vanish under the illumination of Buddha's light."
With palms joined, Shaka formed a massive glowing sphere of terrifying energy. The Evil God King felt a chill shoot from his feet to the top of his head—the light sphere radiated death itself.
Without a trace of hesitation, Shaka hurled the orb toward the Evil God King.
The Evil God King instinctively summoned his super artifact, the Scales of Judgment, to shield himself.
Boom!
Another deafening explosion shook the heavens. A violent shockwave tore across the battlefield. The entire Douluo Star and even the God Realm trembled violently.
Black blood rained from the sky. The Evil God King and his super artifact shattered simultaneously.
As time passed, the balance of victory tilted fully toward the Underworld.
In the sky, a colossal dragon over a hundred meters long coiled above the gods. Dark flames gushed from its maw, and the scorching waves incinerated countless gods into nothingness.
This black dragon was the incarnation of Radamanthys.
His fellow Triarchs—Aiakos and Minos—had also transformed into enormous guardian beasts. Aiakos turned into a golden-winged roc. With wings spread wide, his gusts of wind shredded gods into pieces.
Minos, transformed into a griffin, dove repeatedly from the sky. His sharp claws flashed with cold light, taking the lives of numerous gods in an instant.
Faced with the murderous might of the Three Giants, the remaining first-tier gods of the God Realm—the Elemental Gods of Fire, Wind, and Earth—gritted their teeth and charged.
The Fire God, cloaked in the fiercest flames, roared as his fire transformed into a colossal dragon that lunged toward Radamanthys.
Radamanthys responded with a roar of his own. His black dragon form surged upward, cloaked in deathly black flames that wrapped around his massive frame.
The two dragons—one red, one black—collided head-on.
Boom!
The red dragon lasted less than three seconds before it was crushed into ashes by the black dragon.
"Damn!"
The Fire God instantly sensed danger. He tried to dodge, but it was too late. Though massive, Radamanthys's dragon form moved with terrifying speed. The moment the fire dragon was destroyed, the Fire God himself was devoured by the black dragon.
On the other side, the Wind God faced Aiakos, who also wielded wind as his weapon.
But against Aiakos's storms, the Wind God's power paled in comparison. The once-mighty Wind God was tossed around by his own element, completely disoriented.
"This ends now."
Finding the game boring, Aiakos unleashed a burst of speed. The golden roc's wings beat like lightning, turning the storm into blades that tore through the Wind God's body.
Meanwhile, the Earth God's battle with Minos came to a close as well.
Known for his defense, the Earth God was nothing before Minos. Blow after blow landed like hammers. The Earth God, barely clinging to life, plummeted like a meteor.
