Old days in the box

Chapter 492: The void demon will never die, rise up!
Or the Demon Dog Star.

On the battlefield between "Buddha" and "Death", golden light and black light flashed alternately, destroying each other's believers and minions one after another. The death of the followers of either side meant that the souls of the dead would rise again and return to the winner.

This is not a life-and-death battle of the living, but a battle for souls.

Under the guidance of the Old One, the floating mist fleet quickly reached the depths of the battlefield and saw that the entire battlefield was filled with ascending souls.

If the winner is the Buddha, the souls of the deceased who ascend to heaven will return to paradise and be collected into the Buddha Lotus among the stars to be reborn in Nirvana.
If Hela wins, the ascended souls will return to the Styx and follow the river back to Eluidnir, the palace of the goddess of death, and become slaves of death again.

What Tyin said was indeed right. This war would not kill anyone at all. They were simply trying to snatch the souls from each other.

This is the realm of the dead. Whoever can control more dead souls will have a greater say, and may even become the master of the spiritual world in charge of all souls in the near future.

A loud noise came from the mountains below them, and they saw an extremely huge demon dog leaping up from the horizon, emitting a terrifying howl that attracted a large number of dead souls around it.

That is Garm, the demon dog tamed by Hela. Before Hela became the goddess of death, it was the actual master of Helheim. Now it is the gatekeeper of the kingdom of the dead, responsible for expelling all living hell monsters.

Garm's body was almost as big as the mountain. Its body was covered with rotten blood holes. Its exposed skeleton was burning with blue flames. It used its sharp claws to tear apart all the bald heads in front of it.

Some humanoid creatures emitting golden light surrounded the demon dog and tried to tear apart its body. Those creatures were taller than the ordinary bald masters, and unstable energy seemed to be surging under their skin. With their strange strength, they tore the demon dog's skin apart piece by piece, causing a large amount of black blood to flow out.

But Garm just let out a weird howl, tore all these glowing humanoids into pieces, and watched them turn into light and disappear on the spot.

Zhou Xiao could sense that those were void creatures created by "Buddha".

As a new god of the void composed entirely of the power of faith, "Buddha" can separate a small independent part from his own body and create a completely independent existence in the void, which is the so-called void creature, or the void demon.

These creatures, like their masters, have no entity, and their forms and characteristics are all determined by the power of faith that makes them up. When they are destroyed in the material plane, like their masters, they do not truly die, but will recover from the void.

Creating void creatures requires a considerable amount of faith, which means that "Buddha" has reached a faith level of at least level 5, or even higher.

"It seems that the power of faith is gathering faster than I thought. That means the two from Vanaheim should have almost reached this level." Zhou Xiao thought of Vanaheim's "Emperor" and "Lord" as he watched.

The great expedition of the Divine Realm has been heading towards Vanaheim for more than ten years, but no effective progress has been made. This may be related to this point.

Once the God of Faith reaches a medium level of divine power and has the ability to create void demons, they will become extremely difficult to deal with and even impossible to completely eradicate.

Because not only can the Void Demon not be truly destroyed, but it can also be dispatched directly to the material plane.

Therefore, having mastered this ability, they no longer need to rely on the spontaneous expansion of their believers as in the past, but instead have the initiative and can directly send the products of their own will to influence the material plane.

In other words, "they" were officially upgraded to "them", and could be considered the true new generation of gods in the universe. "You're here." In Zhou Xiao's bird's-eye view, the shadow of the goddess of death had gradually emerged on the horizon, and he spoke to Drake on the screen to remind him.

"Knights, be ready to launch a raid at your twelve o'clock position! All ships are responsible for providing cover and complete the mission as quickly as possible!" Drake's digital shadow suddenly amplified his voice and gave orders to the Undead Legions on all ships.

On the plain surrounded by several space rivers, they indeed saw the familiar figure.

Once upon a time on the sea in the atrium, the goddess of death descended from the sky and joined the battlefield between the Old One and the God of the Sea, and took away Joseph's soul and left arrogantly.

And now, this goddess also unfolded her fierce figure, covering the entire battlefield like a black curtain covering the sky and the earth, snatching away a large number of souls who had surrendered to "Buddha".

Those void creatures emitting golden light began to gather together, and after stacking, they merged into a larger individual with three heads and six arms, and a halo around its body, and pounced directly towards Hela's feet.

They are the core fighting force of the "Buddha" faith, the six-armed arhats - that's what the venerables call them. One of their attacks is enough to wipe out a small section of the Styx. If enough six-armed arhats can get close to Hela, there's even a chance to hurt Her.

A fleet of fog descended from the sky, carrying with it countless skeleton horses, blood bats, owls, and strange birds, all of which looked down from the sky, landed on the ground with burning blue flames, and transformed into human form again and charged forward.

The Sons of the Undead and the Blood Knights from the atrium rushed towards the six-armed Arhats, piercing their chests with blue-flaming swords, causing golden light and blood to flow.

The Immortal Guards and Skull Freezers blocked the attacks of more Bald Lords from the rear. The freezing magic spread rapidly along with the icy black fog, creating a large gap in the battle line.

"The Undead in the Atrium?"

A huge whisper came from the sky. The goddess of death Hela looked down at the ground from thousands of feet in the sky and recognized these undead souls at a glance.

But he was obviously not the only one watching this battlefield. At the same time the undead landed, a terrifying gaze came from outside the starry sky, as if something indescribable was glancing at every undead warrior from behind the background of the universe.

That is the "Buddha" located in the void outside Helheim. As the God of Faith, He can certainly watch this battlefield from the void and see the appearance of this uninvited guest.

But Zhou Xiao ignored the hostile gaze and immediately clicked on the personal information of the Goddess of Death.

"Hela, the goddess of death, holds the power: death (65%)."

"Divinity/Faith Level: 6/2."

"One of the three children of Loki and the giantess, she was exiled to Helheim when she was young. After discovering the power of death, she became the goddess of death. However, since the advent of the New Heavenly Law Era, her power has been gradually lost due to the division of the new faith. Now she is at a turning point from prosperity to decline."
