Mephistopheles lay half dead on the ground, covered in broken limbs and bruises all over his body, as if he were on the verge of dying. He looked extremely weak and gazed at Hades in disbelief, unable to comprehend.
Why?
Why?
How could Hades be so powerful? In such an enchantment, how was there no weakening of divine power? How was this possible? Unfortunately, Mephistopheles was overwhelmed, and the magic star gradually devoured him.
Tian Kuixing Mephistopheles Special
As the head of the hundred and eight magic stars, Tiankui star was the most suitable Underworld garment, making it both powerful and terrifying. Mephistopheles had the potential of a god king, which could be unlocked with a bit of cultivation.
Sadly!
In this way, Mephistopheles became a dark garment. As he was swallowed, the entire sealing barrier began to dissipate, strands of light indicating its impending disappearance.
"Hehehe"
A faint chuckle sounded, and Satan's figure emerged, still elegant and refined. He said, "What a pity! If you could be killed here and your soul absorbed, Mephistopheles might have broken through to god king status without Faust's soul. What a loss."
Hades showed no emotional fluctuations. Watching Satan's exaggerated display felt more like observing a clown's performance than anything else.
Remember! In the presence of devils, never believe any actions or expressions they display; they are deceitful and treacherous.
"Hehehe"
Eventually, seeing Hades remain unmoved, Satan withdrew all expressions and returned to his original noble demeanor, exuding the authority of a ruler.
Satan maintained his elegance and continued, "Hades, you are truly remarkable! Even I find your soul intriguing. If I could devour it, it would be quite the thrill."
Hades replied indifferently, "You can't do it."
"Indeed!"
Satan's aura shifted as terrifying divine power erupted. Yet, even more formidable divine power surged from the entire Underworld, crushing Satan's might; this was the divine power of Tartarus.
Tartarus allowed Satan to set up such an enchantment here to target Hades, but if Satan dared to intervene directly, it would cross a line. As primordial gods from other mythological worlds, they couldn't show their power here without consequences. Should Satan attack, not only Tartarus but even Gaia, who generally disliked Hades, would intervene. It was a matter of dignity.
"What happens in my domain is my concern. You, an outsider, should not meddle."
Satan's divine power dissipated instantly, and he returned to his elegant appearance, smiling as he said, "Hades, it's a pity. Your soul would indeed be a joy to possess. Swallowing it would be exhilarating."
Hades remained silent, too weary to engage with this primordial lord of hell. Without equivalent strength, it was best not to provoke him.
"What a shame!"
Seeing Hades's indifference, Satan continued casually, "Hades, farewell. I look forward to our next encounter. Believe me, that time won't be far off. The myth will soon meet its end. Change is coming to the Crystal Wall System! The Chaos Sea will experience great upheaval, and soon everything will unfold."
"Hehehe"
With that strange smile, Satan's figure gradually faded. Hades observed silently, ignoring every word and punctuation from Satan, erasing the memory of this encounter.
It was a joke. For a master of hell like Satan, he was well aware of the advanced means he employed. Thus, vigilance was essential.
As Satan vanished, the dark red fog enveloping the Underworld began to dissipate. The devils, now devoid of their master, rushed out of the Underworld, driven solely by instinct to devour other souls.
Why was Hades overlooked? The Pluto helmet was not for show.
Watching the devils depart, Hades did not intervene. There was no need; they could serve as useful weapons. In their current state, they posed a threat to both Olympus and the Titans.
While millions of devils may not cause significant waves, they could still contend with the numerous gods.
After assessing the situation, Hades prepared to leave. However, as many devils perished, souls began to emerge, lacking any consciousness, echoing throughout the Underworld.
Why could the Underworld replace Hades?
Simply put, Hades lacked the ability to reincarnate. Given the current situation, even if reincarnated, he might find his mother had perished in the war shortly after.
It was all futile.
Of course, these souls held no interest in Hades.
What truly intrigued Hades was that among these souls, one resonated with the magic star, prompting him to release it.
It transformed into a dark purple skull that devoured the soul.
A moment later, a warrior knelt before Hades, saluting respectfully.
"Earth Remote Star Leonardo: Delus!"
"See Lord Hades!"
Hades cast a brief glance at Delus before departing the Underworld. Delus then exited through the gates and joined the battlefield alongside the Underworld's warrior army.
Dark Red Sky!
Dark Red Land!
Countless souls wailed.
Countless devils roared.
And upon a throne of countless bones, a dark red demon suddenly opened his eyes, his snake-like pupils gleaming. A smile crept across his face as he whispered, "Hades, we will meet again soon. Your pure soul will surely be mine."
