Greek Mythology: I open a treasure chest at Olympus - Chapter 111

Chapter 111: Mysterious Goddess of the Night

Brilliant light, burning sword blade.

The combination of these two made the gods feel monstrous, destructive greatness.

The sight of Iapetos, the God of longevity, turning into ashes was still clear in the eyes.

The burning sword light cut out again.

Boom!

Lava-like red sword body, spread in mid-air, around the space like a spider web broken up, the depths of the nothingness were also ignited by the high temperature of destruction of distortion.

Apollo’s eyes were cold, and the sword light pointed directly at Hades, who was enveloped in darkness and death.

The King of Underworld, wearing a crown, had long reached some kind of extreme, seeing the fire-red sword light to cut the harsh, gritting his teeth to promote the great power of death and darkness, laying down layers of curtains to block in front of his body.

But these thick curtains woven by death and darkness, in the fire-red sword light that ignited everything, seemed as weak as paper.

Snort!

The hissing sound echoed, and the fire-red sword light cut through the layers of curtains, cutting through the darkness and death. The power of destruction enveloped Hades.

At this time, Cronus appeared in front of Hades, and the vast divine power turned into a huge invisible hand, holding the fire-red sword light.

Boom!

The sword blade, symbolizing destruction and doom, sliced through the thick divine power interwoven with the great forces of the heavens; light and death furiously cut down the top of Cronus’s head.

At the critical moment, the power of space emerged from the divine power of Cronus, with Hades flashing and disappearing in place.

Apollo’s golden eyes lightly closed, ‘all-seeing eye’ instantly locked them again.

The power of the Etheric Divine Body surged into the hands of the mottled rusty sword, the fire-red light flame ignited several points, the whole world issued a huge tremor, and several Main Gods had to step in to stabilize the situation.

Although the same as the golden book of light was a three-star artifact, compared to the golden book of light’s all-around development, the burning sword, a weapon of destruction, exists for the sole purpose of igniting the entire world and destroying everything that exists.

It was purely a weapon of killing, a weapon of destruction.

At one time, Apollo was limited by his lack of strength, unable to truly bring his full power into play.

But since the Etheric Divine Body was promoted to a level comparable to the Primordial, he was able to fully withstand the backlash of this divine weapon.

The true power of extinction erupted!

With a single sword, half of the Primordial Iapetus died on the spot, while the root of his symbolic life span was not affected at all.

This was the true power of the burning sword.

Killing half of the Primordial God so fast that the root could not react.

In an instant, it severed the connection between Iapetus and the root of lifespan so that the two were no longer one.

“The burning sword light will finally devour all beyond the light!”

The sword light slashed. Apollo looked solemn, his golden figure tinged with fiery red.

This was both the red of fire and the red of killing.

Boom!

The fire-red sword light pierced through space and hit the shoulder of Hades, who was being carried through by Cronus.

A flood of divine blood splashed.

The right arm of the King of Underworld was cut off with his shoulder and turned into ashes in the blazing flames.

Hades let out a miserable scream and collapsed into the darkness with a pale face.

At that moment, the fiery-red sword light cut again, Cronus’s face changed, and he opened his hand to the far side where Demeter was.

“My weapon, come back!”

Under the struggle of Demeter, the black sword suddenly flew down to the palm of Cronus.

The second-generation King of God’s face was confident, the majestic divine power surging out, the pitch-black blade with the sharpness that divides the sky and earth to meet the fire-red sword light.

Clang!

The sword staggered, pitch-black and fire-red dye intertwined.

Under the shocked gaze of the gods, the eternal darkness of the underworld was shattered by the light of the sword and knife.

Two magnificent figures, without giving way, face each other in mid-air.

Cronus’s pale gold eyes with a bitterly cold, divine power extreme exertion, the black blade burst out more profound sharpness.

The corners of Apollo’s mouth were as calm as water, the stars in his body operated, the power of the Etheric Divine Body and the flame of destruction mingled as one, and the doomsday-like fire-red sword light covered the entire underworld.

Bang Bang!

The dark knife and the fiery-red sword collided once again.

The destructive power that shatters everything filled the faint space, and every burst of sword and sword energy, every terrifying aftermath, made the world tremble, and the gods were terrified.

Cleos, the God of weather, chanted the name of the Abyss under his breath and wanted to come over to join the battle, but he was cut by several sword lights and immediately had several more hideous slashes on his body.

“Young gods, you must be the descendant of my son; what an outstanding child, but I cannot disobey the will of the Lord and must get you out of the way!”

Cronus whispered in a low voice, his hands clenched the hilt of the jet-black blade, and his divine power was pushed to the extreme, condensing a long knife light that stretched for hundreds of miles and slashed towards Apollo like a tearing sky and earth.

“I’m very curious about your situation. You are completely different from other Titans who fell into the Abyss!” Apollo responded softly, and the red sword of destruction in his hand was also burning to the extreme.

Boom!

The rusty sword blade clashed again.

The gods could not see the two anymore, only to feel that in the blink of an eye, two terrifying divine weapons crossed blows a thousand times, and the clanging sound was incessant.

The rules and laws of the underworld were cracked, and darkness and death were cut through.

Steeply, a clear and crisp sound echoed in heaven and earth.

When the gods stared, they saw Cronus standing in place in a daze, with beads of blood dangling from his fingertips, and only a short half of the knife clutched in his palm remained.

The other half was tainted with fire-red flame, trembling and falling to the dark earth of underworld.

On the opposite side of him, the young golden figure, the fire-red rusty sword in his hand, burning fire more and more incandescent.

The monstrous aura of destruction stretched and swept toward Cronus.

“Alas!”

A ghostly sigh came steeply from the depths of underworld.

The pitch-black vortex that flew out from Tartarus emerged as a profound shadow of light, blocking the burning sword light.

“Great Lord of Abyss!” Cronus bent down and gave a slight salute to the shadow of light.

Hades struggled to his feet and shouted to the light, “Tartarus, at last, you have come out to help me kill Apollo!”

His words just fell.

The other end of the depths of underworld, covered by a long skirt dotted with stars in the field of the black night, suddenly opened a hazy night curtain.

As if there was a melodious song being played, the whole world was instantly quiet.

All the gods had turned their attention to the layers of the quiet night curtain.

A beautiful portrait of a young girl appeared in the scary darkness.

She wore a thick black dress, her aura was quiet and elegant, permeated with mystery and gentleness, and her flawless cheeks, which felt stunning from the portrait, were gently covered by a thin veil, adding points of dreamlike beauty.

“Goddess Nyx,” Hestia and other gods gave a gentle salute to this black-skirted girl.

In mid-air, Apollo also turned his gaze to this Goddess of night.

Under the gaze of the ‘all-seeing eye, the black-skirted maiden, who was covered by a veil, suddenly glanced at him gently as if she sensed his probing.

This made Apollo’s heart a little surprised, using the ‘all-seeing eye’ to probe the Main God. This was not the first time he did it; in the past, whether Uranus, Cronus, or the Lord of Abyss Tartarus was in front of him, there was no reaction.

But this Goddess of night noticed it all at once.

Was it because she had a unique ability in counter-probing, or was her strength and rank above Tartarus?

After glancing at Apollo as if nothing had happened, the black-skirted girl shrouded in night smiled and looked at the profound light emerging from the dark vortex: “Tartarus, today’s matter has become too big for too long, so let’s end it like this.”

“End?” Hades had the appearance of someone who wanted to speak, but Tartarus’ ears picked up on his low voice.

“Find the opportunity later; this Apollo’s strength completely exceeds the estimate, even if I shot may not be able to take him. And Nyx is more and more mysterious and powerful. Erebus disappeared for too long. I suspect that he has been devoured by Nyx. It is not appropriate to make an enemy of her.”

Hades had to swallow his voice.

Above Tartarus said in a deep voice: “I am also the same idea. The Primordial level of the fight destroyed too much; what things to talk about later.”

With this, he took Cronus and Cleos with him and went back from the dark whirlpool.

Then Apollo said, “It’s fine if it’s over, but leave him with me.”

A ray of light enveloped Cleos, who was walking behind Cronus.

Cronus’s face changed, and he was about to stop Apollo.

But a Tartarus voice said, “Well, let him have it.”

Cronus also had to stop, pale gold eyes looked deeply at Apollo, and his figure disappeared into the dark vortex.

And Cleos, who was shrouded in light, was constantly struggling.

Apollo had to knock out this grandfather of Hecate and Astraea.

Nyx from above looked at him: “Those who have fallen into the Abyss are not so easy to get out. Take him to sit in my field of darkness.”

Apollo nodded and glanced at Hades, whose crown had reverted to Elysian Paradise and was himself sitting in it, with a slight twinkle in his eye.

Over there, Hestia and Demeter came up to Nyx with Persephone.
