Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 74 "Slaughter"

Truman quietly ended Salinger's dream and withdrew from it.

Both Salinger and the God of Honor were momentarily distracted, as if they had discovered something, but they could never quite grasp the feeling.

This is the power of "dream". Even if the goddess of the night or the imaginary dragon were to do it after becoming a god, they might not be able to do it better than Truman.

Once away from the battlefield of the underworld, Truman used the connection between dreams to shout to Sasriel, "3462, come out and clean up the mess!"

Saslir, who was far away in the Kingdom of the Creator, stabilizing the hearts of believers, was shocked and didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this "harassing call".

However, the ancient sun god, who had already obtained the characteristics of the Imaginary Dragon, emerged from the Chaos Sea and heard Truman's call.

With a single step, He arrived in the Spirit Realm and saw the two ancient gods who were conceptualizing themselves deep within the Spirit Realm, constantly eroding each other.

The battle between the two has become highly conceptualized, more like a collision of two natural phenomena.

The arrival of the ancient sun god was naturally noticed by both sides in the war. The giant king and the phoenix ancestor quickly separated, each on guard against the ancient sun god.

"What about that dragon?" Olmir and Greta immediately thought of the Imaginary Dragon.

But in the next instant, He also discovered that the miraculous city, which represented the entire dragon race, had already fallen into the Creator's Heaven.

The aura of the Imaginary Dragon was also completely blocked, making it impossible for them to perceive it.

Was the dragon dead?

Olmir and Greta felt a sense of dread. The eight ancient gods had fought endlessly for a thousand years, and now only three of them remained? One of them was even hiding away in the abyss!

"Sun! This is my battlefield!" Olmir's voice was low and deep. Dusk was wary of the sun, and so was Greta. She was extremely wary of any third party that might appear in the war.

"Naturally, my ally." The ancient sun god did not interfere in the battle, but simply nodded gently, as if he could not see the wariness in the eyes of the two ancient gods.

"I am also waiting for the final winner to emerge."

But the conversation between the two caused a kind of crazy emotion to erupt in Greygarley's bronze eyes, which seemed to hide countless illusory portals.

"Olmir!" Greta's shrill voice echoed throughout the spirit world. "You traitor! You betrayed Lilith, and now you want to betray the era of the Old Gods too?!"

Although the eight ancient gods were constantly at war, their factions were actually closer to those of the ancient sun god.

Faced with Greta's questioning, Olmir remained silent and transformed into twilight. Within the twilight was a great red sword, sacrificed by the giant army, gleaming with a blood-red light.

Although the ancient sun god did not make a move, his mere presence alone brought unimaginable pressure to Olmir. He had to ensure that the gap between him and his "collaborator" was within an acceptable range!

Otherwise, the inevitable consequence would be that He would be devoured by His "collaborators"!

In that instant, the twilight was filled with a sense of determination to die, and their power surged!

"Screech!" The Phoenix Ancestor also went mad in this situation. A portal appeared in front of its claws, which stretched out and grabbed something.

The ancient sun god's expression turned solemn as he looked at the golden color in the claws of the phoenix ancestor and sensed the power contained within.

"Olmir! Die!"

The space around the Phoenix Ancestor suddenly became ethereal, transforming into countless illusory portals, all of which were wide open.

Suddenly, a dim, ethereal light flashed from the golden statue in the phoenix ancestor's claws, and all the portals were filled with illusory waves surging forth.

It wasn't the truly dark river water, but rather an illusory tide mixed with grayish-white mist.

Although a tributary has already seeped out of the "River of Eternal Darkness," even the Phoenix Ancestor could not use the real river water on a large scale.

These illusory tides are the breath of a real river, rolling in, almost frantically trying to drown out the twilight.

Even the true river deep within the underworld seemed to sense something strange, as if it had detected the presence of Olmir and the sword in his hand.

Its tributaries seemed to suddenly break free from the gray-white mist and enter a high-tide state, with the river water rising more than ten times higher than before!

boom!

The illusory river surged forth, and the pale flames burning on Greygardy's body expanded, her bronze eyes blazing with light, enveloping the entire underworld.

All of this happened too suddenly; Olmir was completely unprepared for the "River of Eternal Darkness"!

The underworld is located deep within the spirit world, and the "River of Eternal Darkness" is the result of Greta Garley's research over a thousand years; no one can predict its power!

Dusk paused for a moment, and then there was a frantic urge to escape.

The river deep in the underworld terrified Olmir; he must never fall into it, for that would mean absolute death and eternal silence!

But this was already a desperate move by Greta; how could she let Olmir escape so easily?

Bang!

Countless illusory portals closed instantly. Greta Garley even relinquished control of the underworld, causing the void to shatter and space to overlap, trapping Olmir for a moment.

Dusk froze.

laugh!

The golden statue in Greta's claws flew up and pierced directly into Olmir's right hand, which was holding a greatsword.

"Ah!" Olmir's arm was inevitably bound by the golden statue, and there was even an incredibly powerful force drawing Olmir in!

Even the ancient sun god watching this battle from afar frowned; the pressure from the "River of Eternal Darkness" was far too powerful.

"Olmir shouldn't have died here." Truman's voice reached Him through Saslir.

The ancient sun god's eyes narrowed slightly as he made a prophecy.

"The 'Source Castle' has strengthened the seal."

hum!

Almost simultaneously, the gray-white mist covering the illusory river suddenly surged, directly imprisoning the dark waters of that tributary. The aura it emitted also instantly contracted, correspondingly weakening its cohesive force on adjacent pathways.

Olmir's condition improved under these circumstances.

"Get out of my way!" The blood-stained twilight was already reflected in Olmir's single eye.

With his other hand, he raised the strange greatsword, a blend of twilight and iron, and brought it down with a fierce strike.

"massacre!"

This time it's aimed at Olmir himself!

A flash of blood appeared, and Olmir severed his own arm, transforming it into a shield imbued with the dawn light. It blocked the illusory tide for a moment before rapidly decaying and disappearing into the underworld.

"Screech!" The Phoenix Ancestor cried out in resentment, but its condition was not much better than that of the Giant King.

The true "River of Eternal Darkness" has begun to erode His body!

"Get out!" The phoenix didn't even have time to clean up the giant remnants in the underworld before it "opened the door" and returned to the altar at the deepest part of the underworld.

Bang!

All the illusory portals were closed, and the illusory river shrank back into the depths of the underworld.
