Soul Town: Claiming the throne? You've asked my Tian Ce Army, haven't you?

As soon as he finished speaking, Hades flapped his wings violently, a flash of purple light appeared in the black mist, and a low howl exploded out.

Cerberus, the three-headed hellhound whose body was covered in jet-black ghost fire, burst out of the black mist. Its three heads growled simultaneously, and saliva dripped into the black water.

"Oh, you even brought a mangy dog ​​to show off?"

Mu Bing grinned, his fighting spirit intensifying. He gripped the end of the Flame Demon Axe handle with his left hand, and the crimson flames instantly surged by half a foot.

The figure of the Mighty Shepherd suddenly rose up behind him. The ancient war god was clad in black iron armor, with ram horn patterns on his head, and held a bow of black gold in his hand.

The bowstring was taut as a full moon, and a beam of light formed from divine power was nocked on the string. Li Mu's eyes were like torches, fixed on Hades and Cerberus, the three-headed dog of hell, opposite him.

Cerberus launched the first attack, its three heads roaring simultaneously, spewing dark abyssal fire as they charged straight at the shepherd.

"You dare to show off this beast?"

With a loud shout, Mu Bing charged forward, wielding his Flame Demon Axe. The giant axe unleashed a semi-circular gust of wind, its crimson flames colliding with the Netherfire.

The crimson and pitch-black flames collided violently, and the abyssal fire was instantly suppressed by most of the fire demon's crimson flames. Then, the axe blade swept horizontally towards the middle head of Cerberus.

With a muffled clang, Cerberus bit into the Balrog Axe, sparks flying everywhere.

Cerberus's strength was astonishing; fine cracks appeared on the rock beneath the shepherd's feet. Intrigued, he remarked, "That's some power, better than those rotten fish and shrimp!"

In mid-air, Hades also moved. He flapped his Hell Wings and soared into the air. His Abyss Trident, carrying a dark aura of death, slashed down at Li Mu from above.

Li Mu stood motionless, released the string with his fingertips, and with a "whoosh," the black gold arrow shot out and struck the tip of the halberd precisely.

Golden and black light exploded, and Hades was shaken in the air, only managing to steady himself by flapping his wings violently.

Before he could change his move, Li Mu's rapid-fire arrows arrived, three arrows of light staggered one after the other, completely blocking his evasion route.

Hades wielded his double trident with impenetrable force, deflecting arrows of light with his blades, sparks flying all over his face, but his left bone wing was still grazed by an arrow, leaving a thin crack in his dark armor.

On the battlefield below, the shepherd was already pressing Cerberus, wielding an axe in one hand and hacking away in turn. The crimson flames on the axe burned brighter and brighter, forcing Cerberus to retreat repeatedly.

Its two heads tried to flank and attack from behind, but the shepherd swung his axe backhand, the blade grazing the dog's ear, and the crimson flames burned up the dog's fur, making it howl in pain.

"Is that all you've got? You can't even get close to me with those three mouths?"

No sooner had the shepherd's mocking words fallen than Heris charged in from the side, wielding a double-pronged halberd, the tip of which aimed straight for his waist—a cunning and ruthless move.

The soldier dodged, and the Flame Demon Axe collided with the double trident. Crimson flames climbed up the trident shaft and onto Heris's hand, forcing him to hurriedly let go and take three steps back, his tiger's mouth numb from the impact.

"That's boring!"

The shepherd forced Heris back with a single axe blow, then scoffed, "Is that all you've got? Not even enough to warm me up! Watch me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, golden light flowed around the Shepherd's Bow in Li Mu's hand, and his divine power suddenly surged.

He made a grasping motion with his left hand, and the Shepherd's Bow transformed into a massive black-gold axe, "Qian Yuan Splitting Axe!"

The giant axe, with the force of splitting mountains, cleaved down from above, striking Hades in mid-air. Wherever it passed, the dark mist dissipated, and large pieces of rubble were blown off the dome of the passage by the axe wind.

Hades' expression changed drastically. He folded his wings to protect himself and used his double tridents to block the attack.

With a deafening roar, he was struck by the force of the axe and fell heavily to the ground, splashing black water several meters high, and creating spiderweb-like deep pits on the rock surface beneath his feet.

Mu Bing shook his head. "This guy calls himself Hades? He can't even stand up after taking one axe blow?"

Heris's face darkened completely. He knew that ordinary moves wouldn't be enough to defeat these two, so he decided to stop holding back.

He leaped back to Cerberus's side, raising his trident above his head, the dark runes on his fingertips gleaming black. "Tartars, open!"

Hades responded in mid-air, his Hellwings slamming downwards, and the dark abyss domain spread out along with the black water, instantly enveloping most of the passage.

Gravity within the domain increased several times, and the deathly aura was as thick as ink. With the domain's enhancement, Cerberus's size increased dramatically, and the color of its Netherfire changed from black to ghostly blue.

Countless soul-binding chains emerged from all directions, attacking Mu Bing and Li Mu like a spider web.

"Oh? Finally, you're going to show us something real?"

Instead of panicking, the soldier's eyes lit up. He wielded his Flame Demon Axe with impenetrable speed, forming a wall of fire on the axe. The chains were burned and snapped as soon as they touched the wall of fire.

"This place is so sticky and uncomfortable, let's find another spot!"

The giant axe in Li Mu's hand transformed back into the Bow of the Gods, his arm muscles bulged, and the bow of the Gods was drawn to its fullest extent.

The golden power of the God of War converged wildly towards the arrowhead, condensing into a rocket as thick as an arm, its tip gleaming with a dazzling golden-red halo.

"God of War - Breaking the Formation!"

The sound of the string was like a thunderclap, and the formation-breaking rocket, with the power to split mountains and shatter rocks, pierced straight into the core array eye of the abyss domain.

Hades' expression changed. He folded his wings and held them in front of him, while simultaneously summoning dozens of chains to stack in front of the formation. However, the arrows that broke through the formation were unstoppable, and the chains shattered upon contact.

With a muffled "boom," the arrow tip slammed into the barrier of the domain. The dark barrier instantly cracked with spiderweb-like fine lines, and crimson flames burned inward along the cracks.

In that instant of vulnerability, Mu Bing burst forth. He leaped into the air, stepping on the rubble, raising the Flame Demon Axe high above his head, its crimson flames surging ten feet high. "Open up for me!"

With a single axe strike, a wave of fire crashed into the breach, causing the abyssal death energy to surge to both sides. Cerberus roared and pounced, its three heads simultaneously spewing out ghostly blue flames.

The soldier neither dodged nor evaded, but thrust his Flame Demon Axe forward, forming a shield of crimson flames that forcefully withstood the Netherfire. He then kicked the dog hard on the head, sending it tumbling and crashing into a rock wall.

Hades flapped his wings in the air and swooped down with his double trident, the tip of which was aimed directly at the back of the soldier.

Kelim's second arrow arrived, precisely locking Hades's diving trajectory. Hades had no choice but to spin around to avoid it, and his diving momentum vanished instantly.

The barrage of arrows rained down on Li Mu, who parried with his trident and his Hellwings occasionally whipped up a dark wind to disrupt the arrows' momentum, but they could never break through Li Mu's arrow net.

Chapter 483: Is the intelligence fake?

"Let's give it our all!"

Heris's eyes narrowed. "Between the glory of Hades, Thousand Locks of the Gods!"

In an instant, even more chains surged forth from the ground, the rock walls, and the water, several times more than before.

Hades unleashed the full power of the abyss, his chains piercing through the protective energy, most of them wrapping around Li Mu, binding him and his bow tightly.

The remaining creatures tightly bound the shepherd's limbs and axe handle, while Cerberus opened its three gaping maws, glowing with ghostly blue flames, and lunged straight for the shepherd's neck.

Hades simultaneously raised his double trident high, gathering all his divine power at the tip, and fully unfurled the wings of hell, thrusting them down at the bound Li Mu from above.

"This guy is worthy of being a prisoner of gods?"

Mu Bing roared, the divine runes around his body shining brightly. He laughed loudly, "Fine, I'll give you face! You're supposed to be a god, so I'll send you on your way with my highest honors!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Mu, who was bound by chains, opened his eyes, and his body burst out with dazzling golden light.

The Shepherd's Bow trembled on its own, the bowstring was drawn taut, and a golden arrow, radiant with light, shot out and flew straight toward the dome of the Netherworld Path.

"Divine punishment!"

The light arrow rose to its highest point and suddenly exploded, transforming into a giant tree-shaped light net. Golden light, like branches, spread along the dome, instantly covering the entire passageway.

The next second, the tree-shaped light net split apart, and countless light arrows poured down, hundreds of millions of divine light arrows, carrying the majestic power of executing gods.

Just as Cerberus lunged forward to bite the shepherd, he was struck by a hail of arrows of light.

The ghostly blue flames on its body were instantly shattered, and its three heads, along with its massive canine body, were riddled with holes by countless arrows, letting out a mournful howl.

In just a few breaths, the entire Cerberus vanished into countless fragments of ghostly fire and light...

Hades's full-force halberd strike also landed at this moment, but it was blocked by layers of light arrows. The Abyss Tridents were wielded in a dense and impenetrable manner, but they could not stop the all-pervasive divine punishment light arrows.

Countless arrow holes instantly appeared on his Nether Armor, his Hellwings were riddled with holes, and the Netherfire on his body dimmed at a visible speed.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Mu Bing broke free of his chains, carrying the Flame Demon Axe and walking forward step by step. "I rarely use this killing move outside the realm of gods. You are the second guy to force me to use this move!"

The divine punishment arrows fell around him but did not dissipate. Instead, they flowed along the patterns of the God of War and continuously converged onto the Flame Demon Giant Axe in Mu Bing's hand.

The crimson flames and golden light of the axe body merged, causing the giant axe to increase in size several times, and the axe blade to gleam with a sharpness that could tear through space.

"Alright, I'll send you on your way!"

With a roar, Mu Bing gripped the surging Flame Demon Axe with both hands and leaped into the air.

At the same time, Li Mu flashed and landed behind Mu Bing, placing both palms on his back and pouring all of his divine power into the axe.

With the combined power of the human and the god, the giant axe, imbued with the might of divine punishment and the power of crimson flames, slashed fiercely at Hades and Heris.

Hades used his last bit of divine power to block with his crossed tridents, and Heris also raised his trident to meet him, ready to fight like a cornered beast.

"clang--"

The deafening crash of the clashing axes and halberds caused rubble to rain down from the dome, and the entire Netherworld Path trembled.

The giant axe, empowered by divine punishment, was unstoppable. Hades's abyssal trident shattered instantly, but the axe's momentum remained undiminished, cleaving straight through Hades's body.

Immediately afterward, the remaining force swept over, and before Heris could even let out a scream, he and his double trident were shattered by the axe's force, their souls and bodies engulfed in crimson flames and burned to ashes.

Hades let out a deep, painful roar, his hellish wings drooped limply, and his massive divine body cracked like a spider web, dissipating into countless black fragments of light.

Li Mu slowly returned to Mu Bing's body, the Flame Demon Axe returned to its original state, and the crimson flames on the axe blade were withdrawn into the axe body, leaving only a faint red light.

The soldier raised his axe and twirled it, glanced down at the empty battlefield, stepped over the ashes, and muttered to himself, "That should be fast enough, right?"

While they were on their side, Li Moxuan was not idle either. He stopped pretending, put away his mask, and summoned the Cloud-Shattering City-Breaking Halberd, shattering the God-Locking Chains that were trapping Su Xuanwei with a single blow.

"Follow me!"

Li Moxuan pulled her downstairs and pushed open the door. The soldiers around him were stunned when they saw a stranger pulling Su Xuanwei out. They immediately surrounded him.

Who are you?

Li Moxuan ignored them. "Generals, clear the area!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the tall figures of Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin, Xue Rengui, Li Ji, Su Dingfang, Li Cunxiao, Li Yuanba, Guo Ziyi, and Wang Zhongsi appeared around them.

"These are... guardian spirits?"

"How can there be so many?"

"This guy can summon nine guardian deities?"

"..."

The soldiers panicked. If there was one guardian deity, they still had a chance, but if there were nine guardian deities, wouldn't they just be handing themselves over?

"There are too many wolves and not enough meat, first come, first served!"

Li Cunxiao laughed loudly and swept his Black Dragon Spear horizontally, instantly devouring the soldiers it swept past as a red-eyed black dragon formed from black flames.

"I'll clear the way!"

With a single blow from Li Yuanba's hammer, a group of soldiers were instantly smashed into a bloody pulp, and the air was filled with a strong stench of blood.
