230: Chapter 230: Dust to Dust, Earth to Earth 230: Chapter 230: Dust to Dust, Earth to Earth “Glug.” Two heads rolling on the ground, under disbelieving expressions, were shock, unwillingness, and helplessness... Having honed himself for half a lifetime, finally becoming the exalted Main God, yet in the end, he still became a lost soul under someone else’s blade. Beheading two gods with one strike, today’s event is destined to be a legend that will shake the Underworld. Ye Shikai looked at the bodies of Hephesto and Apollo with a sinister smile on his face. The next second, Zeus felt as if a ferocious beast had locked its sights on him, his body trembling uncontrollably, and a primal instinct to survive made him realize that if he didn’t flee immediately, he would surely die. Zeus saw Poseidon lying on the ground in agony and swiftly picked him up, throwing him at the feet of Ye Shikai, which was truly insidious. “Zeus, you bastard.” Poseidon cursed, regretting and blaming himself for getting involved with Hephesto and his group, leading to this outcome. Ye Shikai raised the Netherworld Blade, now a mere killing machine, indifferent to age or gender, only interested in living beings. Seeing Poseidon’s despairing expression, the Netherworld Blade chopped down without hesitation. Blood splattered three feet high, and Poseidon’s head rolled onto the ground, perfectly aligning next to the heads of Hephesto and Apollo. Their fate was truly brought upon by themselves; if they hadn’t pushed Ye Shikai so hard, he would not have resorted to using the Netherworld Blade. Dust to dust, earth to earth, life shall end, and spirits shall extinguish, no glory outlasts a handful of dirt. Ye Shikai lifted his head to find that Zeus had escaped during the moment of the beheading, apparently jumping off the cliff, his life or death uncertain. Silence, as if only the sound of the wind remained. Ye Shikai looked at the three headless bodies on the ground, suddenly burst into a long laugh, the purple-black glow of the Netherworld Blade also gradually fading. Ye Shikai’s bloodshot eyes slowly returned to normal, and with a “thud”, he collapsed to the ground, passing out... ... “Where am I?” Not knowing how long he had been unconscious, Ye Shikai finally slowly opened his eyes. The quiet environment and the smell of medical alcohol suggested this was a hospital. Ye Shikai was lying on the hospital bed, slowly looking around. Su Qingyu, Ji Qian, and others were sitting around the bed, seeming a bit drowsy, with a sleepy look in their eyes. The room’s lights were dim, only the two lamps on the bedside table were on. Is it nighttime now? Ye Shikai wanted to speak, but found his lips dry and cracked, feeling very thirsty. After adjusting for a while, he slowly said, “Have you guys slept yet?” As soon as he spoke, everyone suddenly opened their eyes, their faces overflowing with joyful expressions. Ji Qian and Su Qingyu’s eyes reddened slightly. “Old Ye, you finally woke up, you’ve been out for seven days,” Wang Kai suppressed his excitement and said to Ye Shikai. “Seven days, that long?” Ye Shikai was somewhat surprised, vaguely remembering the scene of telling everyone to descend the mountain, then facing Zeus and the four Main Gods, after which his memory was blank. “How are Zeus and the others, are you all alright?” Ye Shikai suddenly remembered Zeus and the others, asking urgently. “You single-handedly took down three Main Gods, but it seems Zeus managed to escape with serious injuries,” Ji Qian said, her face unable to hide her admiration. “When we came back to find you, you had already fainted there,” Wang Kai said excitedly, “Old Ye, quickly tell us how you managed to take down the three of them.” “This...I don’t remember,” Ye Shikai scratched his head. He couldn’t remember such things after the Demon Addiction flared up. “Netherworld Blade, are you there?” Ye Shikai asked deep within his mind. “Nonsense, you brat, you really wore me out,” the voice of Netherworld Blade sounded with a slightly scolding tone. Indeed, with Ye Shikai’s current abilities, he was still unable to wield the Netherworld Blade. If it were not for the overwhelming energy of the Demon Addiction as a reliance, it would be impossible for the Netherworld Blade to exhibit such incredible power. But once the Demon Addiction subsided, the Netherworld Blade would rapidly drain Ye Shikai’s physical strength and inner strength—probably why Ye Shikai had been unconscious for as many as seven days. Ye Shikai circulated his Inner Strength. Inside his Dantian and meridians, there was already seventy percent of his Inner Strength. He could clearly feel the internal injuries he had sustained on Holy Mountain were mostly healed. “In the days you were unconscious, I channeled energy into your body, added to the external treatment, your internal injuries are almost healed,” the Netherworld Blade said indifferently, “You probably need to stay a few more days in the hospital, and then you’ll be fully recovered.” “That’s great,” Ye Shikai let out a sigh of relief. This trip to Holy Mountain was extremely dangerous, fortunately, everyone was safe, and they managed to take down three Main Gods in one go. Zeus’s faction was almost wiped out, and it also served a psychological blow to the other Main Gods. Hephesto and Apollo were also slain, Ji Qian must be the happiest one, as the deep-seated hatred of Selene was finally avenged. “By the way, to what extent do I need to reach to be able to use the Netherworld Blade?” Ye Shikai surprisingly did not expect the Netherworld Blade to have such incredible power. Crushing four Main Gods in one go, indeed, compared to Divine Artifacts, a Soul Device is a “qualitative” crush. If Ye Shikai could freely use the Netherworld Blade, it would also be a leap in his strength. “To wield the Netherworld Blade, there is still a gap you need to close. Moreover, if not for Demon Addiction, even if you could use the Netherworld Blade, you would not be able to wield such great power,” the voice of Netherworld Blade sounded. Ye Shikai deeply felt this was true. His victory this time was entirely due to the perfect combination of Demon Addiction and Netherworld Blade. The fearless, brutal, and insane display when the Demon Addiction flared made for a perfect match for the Netherworld Blade, but the side effects were significant. Firstly, losing consciousness and not distinguishing friend from foe, which is why he immediately let Ji Qian lead everyone away from the scene. The second point was the aftermath, leaving the body weak and drained of Inner Strength, almost to the point of being powerless. ...... Three days later. The scenery at the Royal Hospital in Europe was beautiful, and the mountain behind it was a famous scenic spot, a great place for leisure. Ye Shikai, dressed in hospital attire, was strolling hand in hand with Su Qingyu. “Qingyu, I’m sorry for keeping so many things from you,” Ye Shikai said with some guilt. “It’s okay, as long as you’re safe,” Su Qingyu smiled slightly, showing no hint of blame, which warmed Ye Shikai’s heart. “I was wrong too; I shouldn’t have gone up the mountain on my own, I didn’t expect it to be so dangerous,” Su Qingyu nestled into Ye Shikai’s chest, “I just wanted to see you as soon as possible.” Ye Shikai felt very guilty, Su Qingyu went up the mountain ignoring the dangers, just to see him. But at the same time, he was also comforted, thinking how fortunate he was to have such a wife. What more could a husband ask for?
