Chapter 574: Jiu Shen’s Power

Asmodeus gasped when he saw the unconscious Lilith in Jiu Shen’s arms. He had never seen her face, but he could tell that it was her based on the figure of her body and the aura she exudes.

‘How did Jiu Shen capture her? And where is Hecate?’ Asmodeus inspected the area and noticed the mayhem on the surrounding land. Even the sand which covered the ground was nowhere to be seen. Only a fissured earth remained of what it was before.

Soon, Asmodeus sensed a weak aura ten thousand meters from their location. He immediately used his spiritual perception to check this aura and what he saw made him dumbstruck. ‘Bloody hell…’

It was Hecate. He was covered in bloody wounds all over his body and his rigid face had also become disfigured. If not for the Crimson God Armor he was wearing, Asmodeus wouldn’t be able to tell that this man was the Hall Master of the Hall of Might!

The Crimson God Armor which was known as an impenetrable armor with godly defensive abilities had a huge crack in the chest area. Some parts of the armor were also broken and it had lost most of its former glory. The only silver lining was that it was still regenerating, albeit in a very slow process. From the degree of the damage, it might take years for it to fully regenerate back to its peak condition.

‘The arrow earlier… Could it be…’ Asmodeus could not help but glance at the silver-haired man who was holding the unconscious Lilith. His face was calm and he doesn’t seem to have an injury on his body. His armor was in pristine condition and even his skin appeared to be flawless without even a cut or bruise.

In truth, it wasn’t just Asmodeus who was observing the wreckage and the aftermath of the battle.

Jian Wang, Elena, and Elyssier were inspecting the area with their spiritual perceptions. And what they discovered made them renew their view of Jiu Shen. They all thought that Jiu Shen’s strength was just around the same level as their own, if not a bit stronger. However, the evidence of his unparalleled might was laid in front of their very eyes.

“Elena, bind her spiritual power. I have questions for her when she wakes up so make sure that she doesn’t kill herself.” Jiu Shen handed Lilith to Elena.

“Alright.” Elena glanced at the unconscious woman in her arms. She was so beautiful that Elena almost felt ashamed of her own beauty. This goddess-like woman was also stronger than her. Lilith’s accurate judgment, the precise timing of skills, and deep knowledge about battle were above her own. Lilith was better than her in all aspects!

Thinking about all this, Elena sighed with complicated emotions.

“You guys should help the army. The Hall of Might and the Hall of Creation might have lost their leaders, but their overall combat prowess is still above our soldiers’ level. There is no need for unnecessary casualties.” Jiu Shen glanced at the other three.

Jian Wang and the others nodded their heads in agreement. They also didn’t want more of their soldiers to die needlessly.

“We have a lot to talk about later…” Jian Wang glanced deeply at Jiu Shen. They had grown close after all these years and he wanted to know more about the battle earlier. To be specific, he was curious about Jiu Shen’s current level of strength.

From his perspective, Jiu Shen’s prowess had already exceeded the level of Celestials. After all, he was able to defeat both Hecate and Lilith whose powers were at the very peak of the Celestial God Realm. Both experts were hanging at the precipice of the next realm, the Boundless God Realm. A level that only one man has reached, the Lord of Asgard.

According to Asmodeus, the Lord of Asgard had long since exceeded the constraints of the Celestial God Realm. His power could overturn the skies and render space with a mere flick of his hands! From the perspective of mortals, he could be referred to as the ‘One True God.

The Lord of Asgard was a man of mystery. His very being was veiled in mist and fog and no one even knew his real name.

From how Asmodeus described him, the Lord of Asgard always wore a mask and even his hair was covered by the mask. He rarely stepped out of his throne since most tasks were carried out by his subordinates.

Jian Wang wanted to find out if Jiu Shen was now confident enough to confront such a figure.

Jiu Shen stared back at his friend and nodded his head calmly. “Sure. I’ll answer all of your questions later.”

It was fine to tell them about the extent of his power. Although he was now confident that he could fight the Lord of Asgard, he still needed the help of his friends. It wasn’t a good idea to create friction between them at a time like this. Besides, he already planned to tell them about his power.

After getting his answer, Jian Wang left with a satisfied look on his face. He led the others to the battlefield of the two armies.

With the destructive power of Celestials, the Hall of Might and the Hall of Creation were bound to be destroyed. Everyone just couldn’t believe that such major powerhouses would actually end up being annihilated so easily… Jiu Shen’s strength was truly beyond their expectations.

Meanwhile, inside a huge throne room in a castle erected in Asgard, a masked individual seated on a throne suddenly chuckled. “Ho. As expected of something created by me. It’s actually able to produce a character of unequal caliber. Not bad! Hahaha!”

“Jiu Shen. Jiu Shen. Jiu Shen. Come up here quickly! I’ve been waiting for you all this time! I even invested a huge fraction of my wealth just to create that system for you! The time you come up here is also the time that I will collect payments! Hahaha!”
