After leaving the world of all NPCs

"Young man, these are golden maids forged by Vulcan. Mars blessed them so they could protect me. Can you crush the army of the God of War and stop my 'victory'?"

Ye Zuochen did not answer, his movements became faster and faster, and the trajectory of the diamond rod almost formed a golden light curtain.

A puppet attacked from behind, with the sword blade piercing the back of the heart.

He seemed to have eyes on his back, and he suddenly lowered his body to avoid the fatal move, then smashed the golden maid into scrap metal with a stick.

Another golden maid took the opportunity to approach, and the sword blade scratched his arm, leaving a bloody mark.

"Ah."

Ye Zuochen didn't care. The wound on his arm healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He suddenly jumped up, raised the Vajra stick above his head, and the golden light on the stick burst out, like a small sun.

"——One hundred and eighty thousand pounds of red dust, pick up a stick tempered by the Tianhe River——"

The words echoed, and the diamond stick smashed down!

boom--! ! !

A violent shock wave swept across the sky, and hundreds of golden maids were reduced to ashes under this blow. The night sky was illuminated by golden light as if it were daytime.

Venus narrowed her eyes slightly, and the hem of her skirt was lifted by the air waves, revealing her white ankles.

The smoke and dust dissipated, and Ye Zuochen stood in mid-air, with his vajra stick pointing diagonally at the ground, the stick still emitting a faint golden light.

"If you have any other tricks, feel free to use them."

"as you wish."

Venus chuckled, and the golden threads on her fingertips swayed again.

……

The night wind carried the smell of scorched earth as it swept across the half-ruined mountain ridge. The rocks melted by the sun's true fire solidified into hideous black crystals. The remaining shrine torii stood crookedly on the edge of the scorched earth, and cracks from high temperature burns still remained on the peeling vermilion lacquer pillars.

Sayamiya Xin leaned against the decayed pillar and looked into the distance through a telescope.

The night sky is being split by golden and blue light.

Each flash was accompanied by a dull roar.

"I can't see anything at all." She suddenly put down the telescope and rubbed her temples with her fingertips. "Divine power has filled the entire land, forming a barrier. Unless you cross over there, you can't see the battle there at all."

Amakasu Touma, squatting on the stone steps, adjusted the frame of his glasses. "Even if we use scientific methods to investigate, we can't see clearly. It's like reading the contents of a grimoire. The information is too much and terrifying, and the subconscious mind automatically filters out the unnecessary information."

"What do you think, Young Master Lu?" Xin suddenly turned to the corner.

The young man in training clothes didn't even look up, his fingers rapidly tapping on the handheld game console. The screen's light illuminated his indifferent profile. "This is how the battle between gods and godslayers works. According to Master, humans have destiny stars, and so do gods. These destiny stars generate a 'pull' that captures everything around them."

"The so-called immortals who live in seclusion in the Netherworld control their own destiny stars and can independently manipulate this 'attraction'."

"The 'attraction' of the gods can easily capture celestial bodies."

"The abnormal manifestations caused by the arrival of the God of Disobedience are simply due to the 'attraction' emanating from their fate star, which has caused a distortion in the long river of celestial destiny."

"And the God Slayer is an opposing 'force', similar to 'repulsion'."

"The conflict between the two forces will cause interference at the level of destiny."

As he said this, the game console emitted a "KO" sound effect.

Disobedient gods will bring disaster to mankind.

If the sun god comes, the whole world will become extremely hot.

If the God of the Sea were to descend, the entire world would be swallowed by the waves and sink to the bottom of the sea.

If the god of the underworld comes, the plague will spread to every corner of the world, turning the world into a city of death.

If the God of Judgement comes, the people living here will be punished in various ways.

Just passing through this world can have a profound impact.

It's not that they did it on purpose, but their huge gravity of destiny has an impact on the torrent of destiny of all living beings on the earth.

Xin's leather shoe tip crushed a piece of coke. "What an interesting theory. The force of destiny and the force of anti-destiny?"

"That sounds terrifying." Amakasu Touma couldn't help but smile bitterly. "Even according to most of the intelligence we've received, the impact caused by the gods is nothing more than a natural disaster, not even comparable to the two world wars."

Lu Yinghua said without even raising his head: "That's because of the blessing of the correction power."

Sayamiya Xin suddenly laughed and said, "That's fine, but it seems this Roman goddess has many tricks up her sleeve. Could she be Minerva? Or some other female war god?"

"Ha!" Lu Yinghua suddenly laughed out loud. A "GAME OVER" notification sounded from the handheld console. "You Japanese haven't experienced the incident involving gods and godslayers, so you don't understand that the God of Disobedience and mythology aren't completely tied together."

"Even gods without myths related to battle can display means that rival those of the God of War."

"The goddess who appeared is most likely Venus."

"Originally, it was an early nature deity of the Italian peninsula, in charge of gardening, fertility, and abundance."

"During the Roman Republic, as the influence of Greek culture deepened, Venus gradually merged with the Greek goddess of love, Aphrodite, and was given the attributes of a 'goddess of love', but she retained the pragmatic characteristics of Rome."

"The two most important are the blessing of military victory and political power."

"The marriage of Venus to Vulcan (derived from the Greek Hephaestus) in the Roman context highlights the metaphor of social contract and craftsmanship, but Ovid also uses it to satirize the fragility of marriage."

"Vulcan is the god of power, so Venus can use the golden thread and can also control the golden maidens forged by Vulcan."

"In addition, the Romans viewed Venus's affair with Mars, the god of war, as a 'combination of love and war,' symbolizing the dual foundations of national power."

"The two often appear together in Pompeii murals, a metaphor for Rome's expansion and stability."

"Thanks to this, she can use the golden maids as a war army."

As an expert in this field, Lu Yinghua had a very sharp vision. He could guess the true face of Venus and the true face of power just by watching from a distance.

Blessing of military victory and power.

If used in combat, these two powers are indeed very suitable.

Saya Gong Xin listened quietly and asked, "Young Master Lu, who do you think will win, the king or the goddess?"

Lu Yinghua shrugged. "Godslayers and gods are beings beyond our comprehension. Their battles cannot be measured by common sense, so I don't know."

"Cough cough..."

Amakasu suddenly started coughing violently.

An invisible pressure was spreading with the aftermath of the battle, and the remaining beams and pillars of the shrine groaned as they could not bear the heavy weight.

The three of them looked towards the center of the battlefield at the same time, where a black pillar rose up that pierced through the sky and earth.

024 The iron rod softened at the critical moment

"——Taiyi divides its radiance into nine rays, and all the grass, trees, sand, and stones are Dharma images——"

The golden elixir left Ye Zuochen's dantian and turned into green gas that flowed into the Vajra Rod.

The Ruyi stick was immediately enlightened and turned into a magic weapon.

"Baby please get bigger!"

The Ruyi Stick seemed to be derived from his own thoughts and suddenly changed. A thousand-foot-long black iron pillar pierced through the sky and the earth. The mountain and river patterns that appeared on the stick glowed like a bronze artifact under the moonlight.

Ye Zuochen stood on top of the giant black iron pillar, holding the stick with one palm.

"——The sharp edge rolls back, and the vast mountains and rivers are as clean as before, and the stars are as they were before——"

The cyan-gold curse power bursting out from between the fingers was like a living thing, winding down along the ancient scale of Dayu's flood control.

Venus's short golden hair suddenly flew upwards.

It's not the wind pressure, but the gravitational field of the entire space is distorted.

Boom!

The invisible heavy pressure suddenly fell, and the air under the goddess's toes crackled, and spider-web-like cracks were actually created by her feet.

"This is the royal authority that suppresses the God of Mountains and Rivers!!"

Her knees were slightly bent, her white Roman robe was instantly soaked with cold sweat, and the gold foil in her hair jingled and fell to the ground.

Looking up, the shadow of the thousand-foot giant stick had covered half of Tokyo, and the earthly aura was rising from the bottom of the stick, pouring down like a waterfall.

not good!

This magical weapon from the East actually has some connection with the God of Power.

It turns out that the Monkey King's divine nature contains remnants of the ancient water god, which is why he can subdue dragons and snakes. The Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand is a stator used by Dayu to measure the depth of rivers and seas when he was controlling floods.

The detailed origin of the Monkey King's divinity is far too complicated.

But one thing is certain.

This item can suppress dragons and snakes that symbolize floods.

For Venus, who originated from the earth and later had a close relationship with the ocean, this thing was too dangerous and would be suppressed and eliminated even if it turned into foam.

We must stop this stator from falling and nailing down the entire world!

"Children of Vulkan!"

Venus suddenly opened her arms.

"The flexibility that wraps around Adonis' ankles, and the sharpness that can cut through the shield of the god of war, now intertwine to form the spindle of the three goddesses of fate!"

Tens of thousands of golden maids emerged from the void, their brass bodies reflecting a cold light. In an instant, they pounced on the giant stick like a swarm of migrating bees, their mechanical hands tightly gripping the grooves on the stick.

The gold chain around Venus' waist suddenly flew out and split into billions of gold threads.

The silk threads were twisted into ropes as thick as bowls in the air, spiraling around a thousand-foot iron pillar like a giant python around a tree.

Crunch-!

The teeth-grinding sound of metal deformation came from high above.

The giant stick's downward momentum actually stopped, and it was instead pushed up a hundred meters by the combined force of tens of thousands of tons of machinery.

Ye Zuochen suddenly stepped on empty air, his body swayed and he was almost blown away by the recoil force.

But he suddenly stomped his right foot in the air, sparks flew from the friction between the sole of his shoe and the air, and he actually created a visible ring-shaped gas explosion out of thin air.

"A thousand mountains crumble, a single pillar stabilizes the universe, sweeping away all the evil spirits, splitting the sky—break!"

With a slap of his palm, the inscription "Ru" on the top of the stick suddenly lit up.

Clang!

Thirteen gilded ancient characters awakened one after another, from "意" to "斤", and the characters lit up, causing resonance between heaven and earth.

The last word shone with golden light, and the entire giant stick suddenly made a roar like a huge bell.

boom!

The rod shook violently, and the wrapped golden rope broke into pieces.

The golden maids fell like fleas being shaken off, leaving tens of thousands of golden trails in the air.

The thousand-foot-high pillar, without any obstruction, fell again.

This time the speed was faster than before. The compressed air at the bottom of the stick formed a white shock wave, like a thunder spear thrown by the gods.

Venus fell rapidly, and her white robe was torn into pieces by the wind pressure.

"Roarer of the Earth's Heart, Master of the Throat of the Volcano! Awaken your bronze bloodline buried deep within Etna and forge this colossal statue that never rests in its vigil. Let its eyes burn with loyalty, seeing through all betrayal."

In mid-air, Venus chanted words and activated her power.

Boom!Boom!

Ninety-nine metal mountains suddenly rose from the ground.

The forty-meter-tall Talos giant emerged from the ground.

These bronze mechanical giants used their shoulders as steps, instantly forming a pyramid-shaped human ladder.

The giant at the top crossed his arms, and the bronze joints emitted dazzling sparks due to the heavy pressure.

Zizzi——!

The thousand-foot giant club collides with the Talos cluster!

The scorched earth within a radius of ten miles sank three meters at the same time.
