"The paths I have trod will all become the underworld, and all those I have killed will return to the netherworld."
The black figure was approaching the direction where the middle-aged Taoist was. Wherever it passed, the earth became darker, the sky became gloomy, and the sunlight was blocked.
The middle-aged Taoist priest made a resolute decision.
"I'll hold him off. The rest of you form a sealing formation. We must hold him off until the leader arrives. Remember, if we fail, countless others will sacrifice themselves. Let's stop him with all our might for our loved ones!"
(orz, I haven't finished reading the novel yet, and it's so frustrating to write this.)
Chapter 83 The Only Man Who Could Rival God
"Don't sacrifice lightly!" A clear and cheerful voice rang out from ahead, and a beautiful figure blocked Hades's path.
Her face was as delicate as jade, and she stood with a posture as graceful as a mimosa. Her silky black hair was braided into three sections and stood upright. She looked to be around seventeen or eighteen years old. She wore a white Hanfu (traditional Han Chinese clothing).
In terms of beauty alone, it ranks among the top in Gensokyo.
Unlike the Taoist priest behind her, who, despite being prepared to sacrifice himself, still felt fear in the face of the gods, the young girl faced the gods empty-handed without showing any fear.
The moment the girl appeared, the faces of those who had been resigned to death and in despair instantly lit up, and they shouted in unison...
"Master"
The person who arrived was none other than Luo Hao, Luo Cuilian, the leader of the Five Sacred Mountains Sect. She was the pillar of all the followers. Although she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, she was the person in the Celestial Empire who was closest to the pinnacle of martial arts. She was an unparalleled genius with a face that could launch a thousand ships. Until the appearance of a god, she had never been defeated, no matter who her opponent was. Everyone in the Five Sacred Mountains Sect was gathered together because of their worship of her.
Although it was a newly established sect, it was the first sect in the Celestial Empire to successfully seal a god, and also the sect that sealed the most gods in the world. The reason for their success was the girl in front of them.
Luo Hao, the leader of the Five Sacred Mountains Sect, was the only one who could directly confront a god. It was precisely because of her restraint that the seal could remain undisturbed.
At this time, Luo Hao had clearly not yet reached the heights of later generations, nor did he have an arrogant and self-important mentality.
"You all hurry to the mountaintop to meet up with the support team and prepare for the ritual to seal the god. I'll take care of holding him off." After saying that, Luo Hao leaped out, his body as light and agile as a bird. Before Hades could arrive, he had already taken the lead in attacking.
The middle-aged Taoist priest leading the group hesitated for a moment. They had always fought in this way and successfully sealed away gods, but this time they were facing not an ordinary disobedient god, but Hades, who was comparable to Zeus, the king of the Greek gods.
"Withdraw, go to the mountaintop to prepare for the ceremony." After a slight hesitation, the middle-aged Taoist decided to follow the leader's arrangements. If the leader couldn't stop them either, staying would only be a hindrance.
"I've always wanted to have a match with a god-level being!" Luo Hao's pretty face was full of excitement. Since she appeared in the martial arts world, she had never been defeated. Fighting with others could no longer help her reach the pinnacle of martial arts. Only a god could help her improve further.
Phoenix Eyes Through the Curtain
Facing the god, Luo Hao dared not be arrogant. He immediately used one of his signature Flying Phoenix Twelve Palms, "Phoenix Eye Piercing the Curtain," his hand striking out swiftly like lightning, aiming for the belly of one of the black horses.
A neighing sound rang out, and the black chariot came to a halt. Luo Hao's attack had not caused any damage to the black horse. At the last moment, a dull longsword appeared and blocked the attack.
"So that's how it is. No wonder humans, who are about to reach the realm of gods in human form, dare to block Hades' path." Hades' usually calm face showed a change for the first time, with a hint of curiosity mixed in.
"Humans who have not yet decayed are not the objects of my purification. If you leave now, you may still be able to save your lives and reach the realm of the gods," Hades said in a condescending tone. Although they have not yet decayed, the chances of reaching the realm of the gods are still slim.
"Are all gods as verbose as you?" Luo Hao was even more excited that his signature move had been easily blocked. This was the kind of opponent he had been looking for.
"Since that's the case, let you be the first person I descend to purify," Hades' voice wavered slightly, and the black chariot turned around, aiming at Luo Hao.
While Luo Hao was holding Hades back, the middle-aged Taoist priest had already led several hundred of his men to the mountaintop, where they met up with a support team dressed in similar attire.
"Deacon Song Hui, please quickly lead your men to join the sealing effort. The longer we delay, the more dangerous it will be for the sect leader!"
At the summit of Wulao Peak, a massive altar had risen from the ground, with nearly a hundred Taoist priests seated around it. Leading them was a female Taoist nun who appeared to be around thirty years old, with a rather pretty face but a solemn expression. The middle-aged Taoist priest Song Hui also led his men to take up positions in different directions, perfecting the formation.
"Have preparations been completed elsewhere, Deacon Liu?" Song Hui asked the Daoist nun.
"It's done. Only this last part is left. Fortunately, Wulao Peak is one of the birthplaces of the Quanzhen Sect, so it has a certain foundation. It won't take too much effort to set it up. It all depends on the identity of the god this time. If it's an ordinary god, there shouldn't be too many problems." After Song Hui and the others entered the formation and finished it, Liu Yue finally relaxed a little.
“No, we can’t use the original sealing method,” Liu Hui said, frowning.
"?"
“This time, the disobedient god is Hades, the chief god of the Greek underworld.” Song Hui smiled bitterly. This was the first time he had faced a chief god. In the past, he had mostly sealed away minor gods, and the chance of a chief god descending was extremely rare.
"The Lord God!" Liu Yue exclaimed in alarm.
"Calm down! There is still hope. Hades is the god of death, belonging to the dark faction. The sun is his nemesis. At the summit of Five Old Peaks, in the place closest to the sun, immediately have someone modify the formation and spell, using verses praising the sun as the words of power to seal it." The older Liu Hui, who was obviously more experienced, gave the order on behalf of the surprised Liu Yue.
"Time, we need some more time."
On the other side, Luo Hao had already officially engaged in battle with Hades, and the power of a god-level being was indeed beyond her current capabilities.
Hades's every strike carried immense magic, drawing people toward death. Only through her astonishing martial sense and skillful martial arts was she able to barely avoid being hit, and even so, it had already consumed most of her mental energy.
"You can be proud that you were able to dodge my attack as a human," Hades said calmly, without slowing down his attacks.
"This is your last chance. Leave my path and I will not pursue your rudeness." Hades' pure heart and martial arts skills, which are close to the pinnacle, made him speak once again, despite his previous lack of experience.
"You want me to leave? Then why don't you go back to heaven first?" Luo Hao's delicate face was covered with sweat, but he still refused to admit defeat.
"Do you really think you still have a chance of winning?" Hades' eyes flashed with anger, and the speed of his sword suddenly doubled.
Sensing danger through her martial senses and attempting to dodge, she still couldn't completely avoid it, only narrowly escaping a vital spot. The black sword pierced through her shoulder. A slight contortion appeared on Luo Hao's face, but she felt no pain. However, after the black sword pierced her body, it felt as if a strange energy flowed into her, making her feel cold all over and her limbs somewhat weak. (Should I say that the Sect Leader is the true heroine of the Godslayer world?!)
Chapter 84 How to Absorb?
"Is it not finished yet?" Liu Hui waited anxiously for news. After all, the enemy was the main god, and the cult leader's words of comfort made him very uneasy.
"The technique has been modified and the preparations are complete," a young Taoist priest shouted as he rushed over from afar.
"Alright, send the signal immediately and report to the leader."
A streak of light flashed across the sky above the Five Old Peaks, but Luo Hao still noticed it.
Despite the pain, her slender legs were no longer agile, and she barely managed to escape Hades' attack range with a powerful leap.
In this near-desperate situation, Luo Hao smiled slightly. Was the preparation complete? It was a pity that he no longer had the ability to lure the other party there. But even without the lure, Hades would walk into the trap on his own.
After being pierced by the longsword, his strength and energy began to drain away. Being able to leap out of Hades' attack range was already his limit, and now even maintaining his standing position was difficult.
"You were struck by the death curse that comes with my sword, yet you have managed to hold on until now without falling. Even I have to give you a shout of praise." For the first time, Hades' eyes showed admiration. The death curse does not have much effect on gods, but humans have absolutely no chance of being stopped. The fact that you have persisted until now without falling shows your strong will, which impressed Hades.
"Unfortunately, strong will alone is not enough to survive on the battlefield. You have no third chance. Die slowly under the curse to atone for your actions."
Faced with Hades's mockery, Luo Hao no longer had the energy to refute it. His vision was becoming increasingly blurry, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not keep himself awake.
"Unfortunately, the pinnacle of martial arts is right before my eyes. If only I had a little more time..."
Luo Hao had lost the power to resist. Hades turned his gaze to the summit of the Five Old Peaks, the place where the corrupt sinners who had offended the majesty of the gods resided. The black chariot rolled its wheels once more, flying directly into the air and heading towards the summit.
Where Hades disappeared, a phantom gradually solidified, transforming into a physical entity and landing on the ground.
"Every time I time travel, it feels so awful... Ugh!!" Wu Feng, who had just successfully time-traveled, opened his eyes as soon as he landed and saw Luo Hao lying unconscious on the ground in front of him. Even though Wu Feng had read about the girls in Gensokyo, he couldn't help but be surprised.
The familiar attire, the eerie location, and the aura of death emanating from the mountaintop prompted Wu Feng to quickly activate [Nagato Yuki's Glasses (Inferior)]
[Luo Hao: In a state of near death]
[Inferior Rank: Level 1]
Wu Feng's pupils suddenly contracted. He had long heard of the name of the leader of the Five Prisons Holy Sect, the witch of the East.
"It seems we've entered another chaotic period," Wu Feng said with a wry smile. How could one of the three oldest god-slayers only be a level one low-level ferocious being? Even in a near-death state, she wouldn't drop a level. Moreover, apart from Kusanagi Godou who had cheated, he had never heard of her losing.
Upon seeing the mission prompt, one should realize that the original Godslayer failed to appear, and the time one enters should be within that timeframe, which is the 19th century.
After observing the data, the eye on the bridge of the nose made a crisp cracking sound, and fine cracks had begun to appear at the location of the support.
After all, it was still a low-quality product that couldn't restore its durability on its own, and it was almost at the end of its lifespan. Wu Feng frowned. Losing his glasses would be quite troublesome, and it was time to save up for a new pair of Holy Marks. However, there was something more important to do right now.
Putting away his glasses, Wu Feng strode towards Luo Hao. If the source of Luo Hao's near-death experience was the death aura surrounding him, then there was still a way to save him, although it would be somewhat...
The heavy, cold body gradually stopped cooling down, and a trace of warmth emerged. Luo Hao's consciousness also showed signs of revival, and a slight fluctuation appeared on his delicate face.
All the death aura was absorbed into Wu Feng's body. As an undead being, this aura was nothing short of a great tonic.
As for how to absorb it, we'll discuss that another time...
"The mountaintop..." Luo Hao murmured softly in his hazy consciousness.
At this moment, a very strong aura of death was emanating from the summit of Wulao Peak. Although its purity was far inferior to that of Youyouzi, it was still much stronger than that of himself.
It was likely that a rebellious god with similar attributes had descended and severely injured Luo Hao, and there was something she was worried about on the mountaintop.
To complete the mission, eliminating the disobedient gods is essential, and Wu Feng also wants to know what it feels like to become the first god-slayer!
Wu Feng lifted Luo Hao in his arms like a princess, and then drifted towards the mountaintop.
The howling cold wind brought Luo Hao back to his senses. His weak body was being comfortably held, and his blurry eyes gradually opened to reveal a short-haired girl who looked rather frail.
"The aura of death within you has only just dissipated, and your strength and energy haven't fully recovered. It would be best to close your eyes and rest for a while longer."
The girl's voice had a somewhat androgynous quality, which reassured Luo Hao, who then realized he was in mid-air.
“While you were asleep, you kept asking to go to the mountaintop, and I was also somewhat interested in it, so I brought you along,” Wu Feng explained, noticing Luo Hao’s confusion.
"There are rebellious gods on the mountaintop. Let me down and let me go by myself." She had already witnessed Hades' strength, and the girl in front of her was probably no weaker than herself, nor was she his match.
"You can tell just by looking at the environment over there, and are you really sure you can walk there by yourself?" Wu Feng teased, raising the corners of his mouth, which reassured the girl.
Luo Hao blushed on her delicate face. Having just woken up, she didn't even have the strength to struggle, let alone walk over by herself.
As they approached the summit, the entire mountain seemed to suddenly light up. Twelve pillars of light, filled with golden incantations, rose from the bottom, converging at the summit and reaching towards the sky. The dim sunlight suddenly burst into blinding light, and angry voices echoed at the same time.
"Those vile ants dare to try and seal me away with the power of light!"
"Hades, the King of the Underworld, be buried with our leader! Sleep eternally at the foot of these Five Old Peaks!"
"From ancient tombs, from the dark ages, from beyond the flow of human death, the slumbering mountains are shaken, like fiery wheels swirling above the sand dunes..."
A unified chanting sound rang out, and countless incantations merged into the twelve pillars of light, making the light in the sky even more dazzling. Even Wu Feng, who was an undead, felt a little uncomfortable.
"Did you think a mere small formation could seal away the power of a god!"
"I am the god of the underworld, the god who controls death. Wherever I go, darkness will descend and light will cease to exist!" As Hades spoke, the sky suddenly darkened, as if night had fallen prematurely. The earth was no longer lit, with only the faint light provided by the countless stars.
Wu Feng and Luo Hao also arrived at the mountaintop at this time.

Chapter 85 Cerberus
At Five Old Peaks, twelve golden pillars of spiritual light rose from the engravings at the foot of the mountain and converged on the altar at the summit. The altar, through the spiritual light, connected with the scorching sun, allowing the power of light to descend upon the earth. The scorching aura filled the entire peak, dispelling the eerie atmosphere and firmly locking Hades to the altar.
Even Wu Feng, who was not in the central government, felt a little uncomfortable.
Upon reaching the summit and seeing Hades, Wu Feng's eyes nearly popped out!
