452: Hope and Cage

The unexpected appearance of one character after another severely impacted the morale of Olympus.

Especially after seeing Athena regain her freedom and stand against Olympus, Zeus flew into a rage.

"Athena, have you thought clearly about what you are doing?"

Facing Zeus's wrath, Athena remained fearless, "Zeus, my belief has never changed. Olympus needs a new birth, not destruction.

For Olympus, I must stop you."

"You…" Zeus was enraged by Athena's words, "Athena, my blood flows in your veins. How can you defy my will?"

"Zeus, Kronos's blood still flows in your veins, yet you drove Him out of Olympus, didn't you?" Athena did not back down in the slightest.

"You…" Zeus's angry expression froze on His face. He was left speechless by Athena's retort.

"Athena, how did you escape from Crete Island? What about Medusa?"

At this point, Zeus finally realized that Athena had been sealed by His own hands. It was impossible for Her to escape the labyrinth by Herself.

Moreover, there was Medusa guarding it. If there hadn't been external intervention, such a situation would never have occurred.

"Medusa? That fellow has already been killed by me." Athena continued, "I have found the adult who can lead Olympus towards light."

"Hahaha, the adult who can lead Olympus towards light? Hahaha…" Zeus laughed uproariously, this was truly the funniest joke He had heard recently, "Tell me, who is behind you instructing you to oppose me?"

Athena did not answer, merely looking at Zeus coldly.

Zeus sneered, "I understand, Athena. I never thought you would actually side with Great Xia.

As a main God of Olympus, do you not feel ashamed?"

"Zeus, you are beyond saving!" Athena looked at Zeus in disappointment, shook Her head, and directly joined the Great Xia Gods' camp.

The Primeval Lord of Heaven looked at Xia Simeng, Wang Mian, and Athena, His heart blooming with joy.

He hadn't expected such a turn of events on the battlefield.

Zeus watched helplessly as Athena threw Herself into the

enemy's

embrace, and the flames of rage shot straight to His head.

"Children of Olympus, follow me and purge the heretics!"

"Purge the heretics!"

"Purge the heretics!"

…

At Zeus's command, the Olympus camp once again charged at Great Xia.

Evil Thought Zeus looked at His enraged main body, a faint smile inadvertently appearing at the corner of His mouth.

The more negative emotions His main body experienced, the stronger He became.

The briefly silent battlefield once again turned upside down.

Sun God Apollo drove His Sun Chariot directly towards Athena.

Suddenly, a flash of fire blocked His path. Xia Simeng, now transformed into a Phoenix of flame, stood in Apollo's way.

"Interesting, a woman dares to block my path?"

Apollo stood upon His chariot, radiating golden light.

Xia Simeng snorted coldly and charged forward as a ball of fire…

On the other side, a fierce Sword Qi directly pierced towards Hades, the King of the Underworld.

Hades narrowed His eyes, staring intently at Zhou Ping, and said, "Zhou Ping, today, I will make you, this Great Xia Sword Saint, fall completely!"

"If you can do it, then try!"

Zhou Ping took down the gourd from His waist and poured a mouthful of wine into His stomach.

Hades looked at Zhou Ping's actions and said disdainfully, "Is it too late to choose to numb yourself with alcohol at this moment?"

No sooner had He spoken than Zhou Ping's entire body suddenly erupted with terrifying Divine Might.

Zhou Ping threw the Dragon Elephant Sword into the sky with a swing of His arm, and the azure Dragon Elephant Sword emitted dazzling light.

To the astonishment of the Gods, the Dragon Elephant Sword split into two, then two into four…

In the blink of an eye, the sky was filled with the forms of the Dragon Elephant Sword.

The dense Sword Qi was like dark clouds before a storm, suffocating the entire battlefield.

Zhou Ping's expression was grim as He shouted, "Sword, come!"

Clang!

The crisp clang of swords was like a hundred birds paying homage to the Phoenix. Countless streams of Sword Qi descended from the sky, directly striking the Olympian Gods.

Except for the powerful main Gods, the rest of the Olympian Gods were stunned by Zhou Ping's move.

Not all Gods were proficient in the Dao of killing, especially the Sword Saint Zhou Ping, who was a freak among freaks.

"How terrifying, what should we do?"

"How long has this human been a God? How can he have such destructive power?"

"I've heard of Him. It's said that even when He was the human ceiling, He possessed the strength to slay Gods!"

The Olympian Gods stirred in commotion. Just then, a strange roar shot into the sky.

A figure grew larger and larger, revealing itself to be the collective evil thought of the Titan God Race, which had just been released by Evil Thought Zeus.

The head of the black giant God suddenly began to swell, and then that huge head rapidly expanded, transforming into a large umbrella, directly shielding the Olympian Gods.

Countless Sword Qi pierced into the black giant's head, and black blood and shattered flesh splattered across the battlefield.

"Roar!"

The Titan God let out a painful roar. His wounds were torn open by the Sword Qi, but then quickly healed.

In the cycle of tearing and healing, that Titan God continuously grew. Soon, a colossal monster that blotted out the sky appeared in the center of the battlefield.

The Primeval Lord of Heaven's eyes narrowed. This monster looked incredibly sinister.

With a clang, the Qingping Sword at the Primeval Lord of Heaven's waist unsheathed, and a clear light streaked across the sky, striking the Titan God's body.

A foul, dark light emanated from the Titan God's body. These lights were thick and viscous, like a vast, dense spiderweb.

After tearing through several black webs, the Qingping Sword light dissipated. These black webs had actually blocked the Qingping Sword light.

With both attacks neutralized by this monster, the Olympian Gods immediately became excited.

Many Gods were even awed by the monster's powerful strength.

"Charge! Kill the Great Xia Gods!"

The Olympian Gods launched another charge, and the entire battlefield descended into complete chaos.

…

Endless Sea, Shang Xie Society's cruise ship.

Song Zhong sat cross-legged on the deck, and Memorial stood behind Song Zhong, carefully watching him fiddle with a blade of grass in his hand.

"Is this the Human Realm of Olympus?" Memorial asked curiously.

"That's right. In the Olympian Gods' mythology, there was a human hero named Prometheus. Legend has it that he stole fire from Sun God Apollo's chariot with a fennel stalk."

Song Zhong said indifferently, "The fire brought hope to humanity. To mock Prometheus, the Olympian Gods forged this fennel stalk into a Divine Artifact and trapped humans within it.

Hope ultimately turned into a cage. Unexpectedly, many years later, this fennel stalk actually became the best Materials for the Olympian Human Realm."
