Chapter 10
When he felt the surging waves around him, Apollo's expression was calm as he snapped his fingers lightly, and an invisible shield instantly appeared around his body.
The surging waves rushed toward him, but they were blocked by the invisible shield.
This was a protective magic spell that Apollo had successfully cast on his first try.
He looked at the invisible shield with satisfaction and lightly asked the burly figure in the distance, "You are the son of the ruler of the ocean. Why would you obey Hera's orders?"
Oceanus, the god of oceans and rivers, was one of the twelve Titans and was the god of the ocean during the time of the second king of the gods, Cronus.
Although Poseidon was called the Sea God, the primordial god of the sea Pontos and the second generation god of the sea Oceanus still influenced the ocean.
Even now, the three generations of the Gods of the Sea are sharing the ocean.
Poseidon didn't listen to Zeus' orders. Similarly, Achelous should not have listened to Hera's orders.
In response to Apollo's question, Achelous just sneered: "It's better to wait until you fall into eternal sleep, and then think about it slowly."
Boom!
Endless waves covered the sky and formed whirlpools that rushed toward Apollo.
"Vision of the sun!"
The golden rays of light burst out from Apollo's eyes.
The golden light was as fast as lightning. It penetrated the layers of waves in the blink of an eye and fell on Achelous' body.
The latter's expression was solemn as he pulled out his huge sword and slashed the light.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The giant sword was like a surging wave that rolled over the sea and the slashed rays of light turned into bright sparks in the air.
"No wonder Hera asked me to take action to get rid of you. This divine art is enough to deal with most of the upper gods. It's hard to imagine that you were only born ten years ago."
"However, it's a pity that your opponent is me, who is standing on the sea. Even a main god wouldn't be able to defeat me so easily! "
Achelous let out a roar, and the surging waves around him suddenly created thousands of whirlpools that revolved at high speed and turned into a giant sword.
Boom!
The whirlpool swirled, and the waves surged. The giant sword slashed in all directions, and the vast tide rolled toward Apollo.
Crash!
The vast tide crashed into his body, and the magical shield made a sound of shattering. It had reached its limit.
Apollo wasn't surprised.
After all, he had just learned this magic, and the mainstream of this world was divine power.
Although the son of the ruler of the ocean had yet to reach the main god realm, he was still one of the most powerful upper gods.
On the other hand, Apollo had just entered the upper god realm. How could the shield he created be able to withstand the opponent's stormy attack for a long time?
Boom!
Another wave of attack struck, and the invisible shield shattered.
An endless amount of seawater formed a whirlpool and violently moved towards the center.
Apollo calmly opened his palms when the huge waves were about to crush him.
Pure white flames slowly rose from his palm.
On the outside, this flame looked very soft, and it did not have much temperature at all.
The corners of Achelous' mouth curled up in a cold smile.
Does he want to deal with me with this kind of fire? As I thought, he was just a young god.
Achelous did not notice that the space around Apollo became distorted and blurred as the flame burned.
Boom!
The sea was shaking, and thousands of whirlpools were swirling wildly.
On Rivia Island, both Hecate and Asteria were shocked.
When they arrived in a hurry, they saw the surging seawater vibrating wildly, and a huge whirlpool shrouding a golden figure that was not tall.
"Apollo!"
Asteria roared in panic, and her eyes became red with anxiety.
Hecate was much calmer than her. She pointed her finger at the waves and her majestic divine power surged.
"I knew you guys would show up."
Achelous smiled coldly and waved the huge sword in his hand.
Suddenly, a thick water curtain with a thousand layers appeared in front of Hecate.
"It will take at least ten breaths to break through these water curtains with my divine power. Damn it, if it was on land, I could easily defeat him!" Hecate was very angry.
In terms of divine power, she was not much different from Achelous.
However, Achelous is a god of the sea. He naturally had an advantage while fighting in the sea. Even a main God would find it difficult to defeat him in a short period.
This was nothing. As far as the duel between gods was concerned, the geographical advantage had little impact.
It was not very difficult to change the terrain and landscape with some effort, but now she had no time.
"Haha, just watch him die in the waves!" Looking at the angry and anxious expressions of Asteria and Hecate, Achelous laughed out loud proudly.
Suddenly, he noticed that the anxiety on the faces of Hecate and Asteria disappeared.
Instead, it was replaced with shock.
When Achelous noticed their surprised looks and turned his head to look, he found that pure white flames were burning on the sea.
The seawater made a boiling sound as the whirlpools quickly evaporated in the air, and the fiery heat wave rolled towards him like a gust of wind.
"How is it possible? How can a fire burn in the sea?"
Achelous looked at the scene in disbelief. He clenched his teeth and waved the great sword in his hand.
Waves and whirlpools appeared under his divine power and rushed towards the sky full of fire.
However, as soon as they touched the pure white flames, these countless waves and whirlpools evaporated in an instant.
The seawater in the middle kept evaporating, and the surrounding seawater didn't even have time to rush over.
In just ten breaths, a huge void appeared in that sea area.
The body of Achelous trembled as he watched this scene.
Even Hecate and Asteria opened their mouths and stared at the pure white flames spreading over the sea, as well as the golden figure in the center of the fire.
