Chapter 3556 Breakthrough
"Fuck!"
A layer of ghostly blue soul fire covered the Emperor of the Underworld's palm.
The soul fire was pressed onto the barrier, and the entire barrier instantly emitted a dazzling holy light, flickering violently, sometimes bright and sometimes dim.
The barrier in front was quickly corroded and melted by the soul fire, leaving a gap more than half a meter high.
"What are you doing! Stop it right now!"
Immediately, members of the divine race noticed the situation on the Underworld Emperor's side and rushed down to provide support. At the same time, dozens of divine arbitration beams attacked the Underworld Emperor's direction.
"Humph!"
The Underworld Emperor shifted his gaze to the race of gods chasing after him in mid-air, snorted coldly, and once again struck out with his palm towards the race of gods.
The Netherflame surged and swept into the sky, instantly engulfing and dissolving the Holy Arbitration Beam.
Upon seeing this, several members of the divine race who were swooping down changed their expressions slightly and simultaneously released defensive barriers to block the Netherflame.
"Bang! Bang bang!!!"
The defensive barrier trembled violently.
The guards of the divine race were greatly astonished.
The burning Netherflame rapidly depleted the power of the defensive barrier, and even their surrounding domains became increasingly unstable.
Fang Heng observed the Underworld Emperor's battle and secretly admired him.
The fact that the Underworld Emperor could so easily deal with so many guardians of the divine race at the same time shows that he is quite powerful.
However, something is strange.
In his view, a large part of the power controlled by the Underworld Emperor did not originate from himself.
It's more like a fighting style that combines external forces with one's own.
The Underworld Emperor turned to look at Fang Heng and the other man, and nodded, saying, "Go first, I'll hold them off for you."
"Okay, let's go!"
Fang Heng agreed, then pulled Rodney forcefully, leading him through the sacred passage barrier and quickly heading outwards.
"It's Zane! He's over there! Don't let him get away!"
Ryan had been searching for Fang Heng's whereabouts in mid-air when he suddenly caught sight of two escaped prisoners out of the corner of his eye. Upon seeing that one of them was Fang Heng, he immediately shouted.
Just as they were about to give chase, they discovered that the area ahead was quickly enveloped by a thick fog of the undead.
"Bang! Bang bang!!!"
Several guardians of the divine race were blasted out of the undead mist, their armor still bearing the scorching flames of the underworld, and they were severely injured.
Two elders rushed over and, seeing the black mist ahead, said in a deep voice, "Emperor of the Underworld, what is the meaning of this! Have you forgotten your agreement with us!"
"Hmph! How ridiculous!"
A disdainful snort emanated from within the black mist.
The Underworld Emperor slowly emerged from the black mist, his Soul Blade blazing with scorching Netherflame. He stared at the two elders of the God Clan and said, "I have fulfilled my promise. What about you?"
"Underworld Emperor, what do you mean by this? The God Clan has always kept its promises and has never broken its word. Have you been imprisoned for too long and started to have wild thoughts?"
"Shut up!" The Underworld Emperor roared, his body radiating scorching Netherfire. "Still trying to deceive me? You've completely sealed off the Underworld, leaving my people displaced. Is this what you promised me?"
The two elders fell silent.
“Underworld Emperor,” the elder reassured, “it’s not as you think. After you were imprisoned, the Underworld vortex began to fluctuate abnormally, and the Underworld became uninhabitable. To ensure the safety of your people, we moved the Underworld race and the Underworld vortex…”
"I don't want to hear your explanation. Do you dare let me go and see my people for myself?"
"The Underworld Emperor".
Another elder's expression turned solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "Don't go too far. Since you have promised to be imprisoned, no matter what happens, you will never leave the prison!"
In just a few words, the divine race's guard team arrived, with dozens of members of the divine race firmly surrounding the Underworld Emperor.
"Heh, so much time has passed and you still haven't improved at all. Do you think these people dare to stop me?"
As the Underworld Emperor spoke, his eyes blazed with intense fighting spirit, and scorching Netherfire ignited on his body, while his aura of death was extremely suppressed within him.
The elder's expression changed drastically, and he shouted, "Not good! Stop him!"
……
Meanwhile, Fang Heng and Rodney escaped the sacred defensive barrier and fled towards the outside world under the protection of the undead mist.
The Court of Divine Punishment is an island suspended at the top of the world by pillars.
The two immediately moved quickly toward the edge of the island.
Suddenly, Fang Heng sensed something and turned around to look behind him.
"boom!!!"
A terrifying aura of death suddenly erupted from the direction of the Court of Punishments.
The death aura, shrouded by the massive golden barrier, burst through the outer barrier after being compressed to an extreme degree, and the surging death aura frantically dissipated outwards.
As the barrier shattered, a large number of prisoners escaped from the massive golden barrier at the same time.
"The source of death..."
Fang Heng muttered to himself, secretly feeling a little alarmed.
It is not ordinary death power, but a mixture of world power from the source of death, a concrete manifestation of the world's rules.
They underestimated the Underworld Emperor.
Having been imprisoned for so long, he still has some tricks up his sleeve.
Rodney also looked behind him.
The massive golden barrier, after being shattered, was quickly restored under the combined control of the gods, and teams of gods continued to rapidly approach the golden barrier to provide support.
After this outburst, the aura of death noticeably weakened, and the aura of the Underworld Emperor quickly dimmed.
"Don't worry, he'll be fine. The Gods still want to use his power to control your Underworld Clan, so they won't let him die easily."
"But……"
Rodney still had some concerns.
"No buts. I think the Underworld Emperor did this to help other prisoners escape by destroying the barrier, causing greater chaos and keeping the God Clan busy for a short time, thus buying us time. We shouldn't let the Underworld Emperor's efforts go to waste."
"I understand."
"Hmm." Fang Heng said calmly, "I have already shown my sincerity by getting you out of prison. Now it's your turn to show your sincerity."
"Alright, as agreed, I will take you to the Death Vortex right now."
As Rodney spoke, he quickly formed a sensory mark in front of him with both hands, closed his eyes to sense it for a moment, and then pointed to a certain place, "In that direction."
"Walk."
Fang Heng immediately flew off in the indicated direction with Rodney, and soon arrived at the edge of the floating island.
The two stopped in their tracks.
Looking beyond the floating island, one could see a densely packed mass of deities gathered on the outer perimeter.
The gods noticed Rodney's presence and quickly gathered around, but they all remained outside the island, in a state of high alert.
Looking into the distance, a vast number of deities were still gathering towards the island.
"This is bad. The gods were most likely attracted by the fluctuations of the aura of death."
Rodney frowned.
In the realm of gods, a large number of deities gather in the high-altitude areas, and they will launch indiscriminate attacks on all non-divine races.
What's more troublesome is that the individual strength of the gods is extremely high.
Even if an ordinary prisoner were lucky enough to escape from the sacred barrier, they probably wouldn't be able to escape the island of the Court of Punishments.
It looks like it's going to be a tough battle. (End of Chapter)
