"Ridiculous!" Pei Zi Yun heard the voice of Hercules stopping him, but he did not stop. The spear continued to stab down, and the speed increased.
"Poof." The spear pierced through Diomedes' heart, and the tip of the spear came out of his back. He pulled the spear out, and blood spurted out like an arrow.
Diomedes' entire body fell to the ground.
A plum blossom quickly appeared in front of him, and it quickly enlarged. Then, it became a transparent information interface with a faint sense of light.
"Mission: Troy is destroyed, the Greeks are victorious, and the light of divine revenge has also appeared. Kill the Greek hero who is stained with blood (5/5)"
"The revenge mission is completed." Pei Zi Yun did not hesitate to press the mission button, and received three Fate Points. A new mission quickly popped up.
"Mission: Defeat Hercules (Incomplete)"
"Oh, no, Paris killed Diomedes." At this time, the Greek came to his senses and shouted.
"Don't worry, look, God has descended. It's Hercules. He will stand on our side and kill this abominable Paris."
Hearing the voice, Pei Zi Yun stood up and saw that the blue sky was pitch black. He also saw a man standing on top of the clouds and descending slowly. His face was full of anger. He thought for a moment and knew why Hercules was angry, but he didn't care.
"Hercules, you have become a god, why are you still descending?" Pei Zi Yun said, looked at Hercules' expression, and said, "Are you jealous because you see me approaching or even surpassing you?"
"When you led people to attack the city of Troy, your friend Teramon rushed into the city first. You were angry and anxious, and your jealousy burned. You pulled out your sword from behind and wanted to kill Teramon."
"If Teramon was not smart enough to immediately kneel down and beg for mercy, saying that he would build a sacred altar for you, the victor, he would have been killed by you."
"All friends are like this, not to mention me — you are such a jealous person."
Hercules was enraged that Pei Zi Yun had seen through his thoughts. This man had dominated the world, and nobody dared to point out his jealousy and narrow-mindedness. Now that he had been exposed, he wanted nothing more than to kill Pei Zi Yun. He shouted, "You despicable Trojan, you shall be punished by the gods."
As he finished speaking, he tossed the long spear out. In a flash, the long spear appeared right in front of Pei Zi Yun.
However, Pei Zi Yun did not panic. In a flash, he dodged the attack of the long spear.
From the very beginning, he had been guarding against Hercules' surprise attack. After all, this was the great hero's specialty. Although Hercules was valiant, he was especially good at sneak attacks. He could not afford to fail miserably in such an easy task.
Seeing that Pei Zi Yun had dodged the spear, Hercules was even more enraged. Another spear appeared in his hand, and with a roar, his body turned into a gust of wind as he charged towards Pei Zi Yun.
"Whoosh." The long spear whistled through the air as it pierced towards Pei Zi Yun's chest.
Pei Zi Yun was surprised. The attacks of the gods were indeed different from those of mortals. Their speed was more than twice as fast. However, with the power of the wind, Pei Zi Yun dodged the spear as well.
The long spear flashed and pierced towards Hercules. Its speed was much faster than when it was used against mortals.
At that time, he only needed to use his strength to crush the enemy. Now that he was facing Hercules, he naturally needed to be stronger in terms of speed and technique.
Hercules was easily enraged, but he was certain of one thing. He had been through hundreds of battles and had seen countless heroes and monsters. Facing Pei Zi Yun's long spear, he did not even frown. He moved half an inch, and the long spear missed.
Hercules did not retract his spear, but swept it towards Pei Zi Yun.
Pei Zi Yun faced the long spear that was sweeping towards him at high speed. "Dang!" The two spears collided, and Pei Zi Yun took a step back. He felt his hands go numb.
'Hercules's strength is above mine. However, since I have reached the tenth level, I can use this power that is close to that of a god to use Dao techniques.'
'Let's try and see if it works.' Pei Zi Yun's face darkened as he thought of this. He raised his long spear and pierced it towards Hercules's abdomen.
Hercules moved his feet lightly, and the long spear stabbed downwards. "Dang!" The spear was blocked. Hercules's martial arts had actually returned to its original state. It was simple yet terrifying. Pei Zi Yun sighed to himself, 'Indeed, no matter what martial arts it is, it is the same in the end.'
But at the moment of contact, a force seeped through the spear and shot upwards.
"Pu!" Hercules had never seen such a force before. He felt his hands go numb, and then he was fine.
"Inner force and hidden force are ineffective."
"Paralysis Technique." Pei Zi Yun spat out a word. Hercules trembled slightly, but it did not have much effect.
"Flash Technique!"
"Quagmire Technique!"
Every single Dao technique was useless. Pei Zi Yun could feel that within Hercules's body, there was a strong force. This force did not require any technique to defend against the Dao techniques.
"So that's how it is."
"Just like my Cast Iron and Cast Copper, when a wooden blade slashes at an iron pillar, the iron pillar is unharmed."
"The power of a god, compared to the power of a Dao technique, is like a wooden blade against an iron pillar. Naturally, there is not much effect." Pei Zi Yun suddenly understood.
Hercules had been attacked repeatedly, and had not been able to take down Pei Zi Yun after such a long time. He was extremely anxious and shouted, "Paris, you are indeed very strong. If I was a mortal, I might not have been able to kill you. But now that I am a god, you shall die."
As Hercules finished speaking, his body emitted a dark red light, and his strength increased once again. Pei Zi Yun knew that things were not going well.
But it was too late. Hercules's long spear had already pierced towards him, and there was even a whizzing sound in the air that sounded like thunder.
"How fast does it have to be to have such an ear-piercing sound?" This thought flashed through Pei Zi Yun's mind, but he had no time to think about it. Faced with the long spear that was coming at him like lightning, there was no way to avoid it. He could only block it, and try his best to move his body sideways to avoid being hit in the vital areas.
"Pu!" The long spear pierced through his left arm, and a piece of flesh was cut off. Fresh blood flowed out from Pei Zi Yun's arm.
"The Cast Iron Bronze Slash is still effective, but I am not immune to it."
Pei Zi Yun did not have time to care about it, because he heard a "boom". Hercules's second heavy strike had arrived. This time, the power of the long spear had increased again.
He did not have a good way to block it, and could only raise his long spear in front of him.
"Peng!"
Pei Zi Yun's body was knocked back by the huge force. "Dong, dong, dong!" He took a few steps back before he could stabilize his footing.
At this time, Hercules charged towards him.
"Paris, if you die, you should be proud of yourself. Because you actually forced a god to use his true strength."
Hearing this, Pei Zi Yun's heart trembled, and he felt his strength draining.
"I am not a god, so there are limits." Pei Zi Yun thought to himself, and shouted, "System!"
A Plum Blossom appeared in front of him, and quickly enlarged. Then, it became a transparent information interface with a faint sense of light. He then quickly looked through it.
"Found it!"
"Extraordinary Divine Power: Assistance from a Different World. You have spent Fate Points to summon your power from a distant Different World. 0/60 seconds."
"Although it costs five Fate Points, and it only lasts for one minute, I have spent it." Pei Zi Yun did not hesitate to press on, and spent all the Fate Points he had just obtained.
"Boom!" In the space, the small hall of the Da Xu Dynasty suddenly lit up, and the Fate Points entered his body. Pei Zi Yun felt his strength quickly break through a membrane, and quickly transformed into a strange and terrifying power.
"One minute is more than enough." At this moment, Pei Zi Yun was already a god. He watched as Hercules' long spear once again pierced towards him with a loud whistling sound.
Pei Zi Yun snorted coldly, and instead of retreating, he advanced. At this moment, Hercules' movements were not as fast as before, but much slower. It was much easier for him to block Hercules' attack.
Pei Zi Yun rushed towards the incoming spear, and at the moment when the spear was about to pierce him, his body very nimbly moved along the body of the spear, and the spear in his hand stabbed forward.
In Hercules' eyes, Pei Zi Yun's movements had become extremely fast, even accompanied by a trace of afterimages. Suddenly, his expression changed, and he dodged at top speed.
"Pu!" Hercules did not completely dodge, only slightly avoiding the vital parts. The long spear pierced Hercules' shoulder, and sparks could be seen flying. It was as if it had pierced through steel, but it still could not stop the spear. Moreover, the extremely strong force of the long spear directly stabbed Hercules, and his heavy body directly fell to the ground with a bang.
Blood flowed down Hercules' shoulder, staining his armor red.
"No, impossible, you can actually stab a god!" Hercules shouted, but Pei Zi Yun showed no mercy. His body once again left afterimages, and he rushed towards Hercules, swearing to kill Hercules with his spear.
"Hercules, by killing you, I can fill all the gaps and still have more to spare."
But at this moment, there was a loud boom, and a bolt of lightning fell, striking between him and Hercules, causing Pei Zi Yun's body to be unable to move forward.
"It's the power of Zeus."
"In history, Zeus used this lightning to stop the battle between the gods and the two sons of Zeus. I never thought that I would be able to receive this treatment."
Feeling the terrifying power in the sky, Pei Zi Yun knew that he could not kill Hercules now, and could only give up. At the first instant, he thought to himself, "Stop!"
In the space, the infusion of power from the Da Xu Realm stopped. One could see that the small hall of the Da Xu Realm lit up for a moment, and then slowly darkened. But compared to before, the entire hall seemed older and darker.
"I can feel that ever since I completely killed the old Dao Lord and became a Dao Lord, the Da Xu Realm has given me some power, but not much has been transmitted across realms. This little bit of power is all that I have accumulated during this period of time."
"And just now, it took 27 seconds, so there are 33 seconds left."
"These 33 seconds are actually more than enough to kill Hercules, but Zeus has already acted to stop me. Unless my strength can directly crush the gods of Mount Olympus, I can only stop fighting."
