Red Mansion Taoist

Chapter 384 Lightning
At the top of Mount Olympus, there is a pure white palace in the clouds.

Dozens of tall round stone pillars support the front hall, and each of them is carved with mythological reliefs.

The clouds obscured the mountain, making the palace appear as if it were in the sky.

In fact, the Temple of Olympus is meant to be in the sky, just like Poseidon is in the sea and Hades is in hell.

In the main hall of the temple, the god of the sea Poseidon was missing among the twelve main gods, and one of the twelve thrones was left empty.

The atmosphere in the hall was a bit depressing. Although Poseidon, the god of the sea, was in the ocean most of the time and was just a phantom in the Temple of Olympus, as long as the phantom was there, the main gods could communicate with Poseidon.

The main gods probably guessed the disappearance of Poseidon, the god of the sea.

The main reason was that the changes in the Aegean Sea were too obvious. It only took a short time for the huge Aegean Sea to be polluted and purified.

To possess such great power, only gods with authority over the ocean have this ability.

In the temple, even if Zeus himself went to the Aegean Sea, he would not be able to purify the waters of the Aegean Sea.

But the problem is, the main gods are aware of the strength of Poseidon, the god of the sea, otherwise he would not have been suppressed by Zeus all the time.

Poseidon, the god of the sea, is not powerful enough to purify the Aegean Sea in a short period of time.

In addition, with the disappearance of Poseidon, the main gods speculated that Poseidon's authority over the ocean might have been lost, and even his body had been suppressed.

"Emperor Daqian controls the power of the Titans, but no matter how powerful he is, he can only live for a hundred years at most. When Emperor Daqian dies of old age and the Temple of Olympus reopens, Emperor Daqian's descendants will pay the price!" Zeus said in a deep voice.

Whether it is the Eastern immortals or the Western gods, they cannot touch the kingdom's destiny.

However, enjoying the protection of the kingdom's good fortune does not come without a price.

Under the influence of the kingdom's fortune, it is almost impossible to practice. Although Zeus does not know how Emperor Daqian was able to practice, one thing is certain, Emperor Daqian cannot have a lifespan of more than a hundred years.

Among the kings that have appeared in history, there are many with extraordinary talents, and among them there are also powerful kings who can fight against gods.

But without exception, these kings only lived for a hundred years and could not live as long as true immortals and gods.

In Zeus's cognition, this is the rule of this world. If the rule cannot be broken, no matter how powerful Emperor Daqian is, he cannot live beyond a hundred years old.

And a hundred years was just a blink of an eye for Zeus and the other gods present.

"Yes, Emperor Daqian cannot be an exception!" the messenger Hermes continued.

It's just that he lacked confidence. Emperor Daqian was now more powerful than one could imagine. It was hard to say whether he could break through the restrictions of the rules.

"Who is watching here?" Zeus suddenly looked outside the temple and shouted.

Mount Olympus is completely under his control, and any abnormality will be discovered by him immediately.

He sensed a gaze falling on the temple from the void, and then he spoke to ask the peeping person to come out.

Zeus answered with a loud noise.

Zeus flashed out of the temple, and the other ten gods followed him.

"Kronos!" When Zeus saw the huge figure outside the temple, he couldn't help but blurt out his identity.

I saw the Titan of Destruction standing in the clouds, which were transformed by the temple into a solid surface.

Some places have even been built into gardens and ponds, which is a completely different world.

Zeus searched for the figure of Emperor Daqian, but apart from the Titan of Destruction, there was no other figure.

A white spear flashing with lightning appeared in his hand. It was the divine weapon Lightning.

At the same time, his body quickly grew larger, and he stopped only after reaching twenty meters.

He is the child of the Titan. Although the size of his divine body is not as large as that of a real Titan, it is not that of an ordinary person either. This is his original state at this moment.

"Everyone, get ready for battle!" Zeus said to the other gods.

"My Lord Gods of Olympus, I am the Emperor of Daqian. I promise that as long as you do not interfere in my battle with Zeus, all your divine powers will remain unchanged and will be recognized by Daqian!" Li Qiang said at this time.

He knew that among these gods, the ones most likely to cause trouble were Zeus, Poseidon, the god of the sea, and Hades, the god of the underworld. The rest of the gods were very honest and at least would not cause any major incidents.

Besides, he doesn’t want to kill all the gods. As long as they are not his enemies, he doesn’t mind keeping these gods alive.

"Where are you hiding? If you want to fight me, why don't you show up!" When Zeus heard Li Qiang's voice, he searched for her again in vain and shouted loudly.

When he turned around, he saw that the expressions of the gods were different, which made him feel nervous.

"Do you believe him? He wants to defeat us all. Think about Poseidon. Once I lose, it will be your turn!" he said to the gods.

"I'm not good at fighting, so I won't participate!" said the goddess of love Aphrodite, who was the first to take a step back.

Unlike other gods, the goddess of love Aphrodite is one of the few gods among the twelve who has no relationship with Zeus.

The other main gods are either Zeus’ brothers and sisters, his wife, or his children. It can be said that the Temple of Olympus is the family temple of Zeus.

"Do you need me to join the battle?" asked Queen Hera helplessly.

Facing the powerful Titan of Destruction, she, the goddess of marriage and fertility, has no fighting power at all.

In fact, Zeus's attention was mainly on Apollo, the god of light, Ares, the god of war, and Hephaestus, the god of fire. Their strength was among the best among the twelve main gods.

Unfortunately, it was ruled by Zeus for countless years, and Zeus did many things that made the other gods feel disheartened.

If they could get rid of Zeus' rule, even Zeus' relatives would not be willing to help him fight.

Especially after seeing the power of the Titan of Destruction, they knew more clearly that resistance would mean seeking death.

"Hera, you don't need to join the war!" Zeus said, shaking his head bitterly.

He turned his head and looked at the World-Destroying Titan, without any fear in his eyes.

He defeated countless powerful enemies, which is why he was given the title of King of Gods.

He firmly believed that this was one of his countless victories and would be a heroic battle record engraved on the relief.

"Emperor Daqian, you show up and fight with me, and we'll decide the winner!" he said, waving the lightning in his hand.

Li Qiang was sitting on the shoulder of the Titan of Destruction, and he saw Zeus' confidence.

It has to be said that Zeus’ heart is extremely strong. Even when facing the world-destroying Titan, he still has the determination to win.

However, Li Qiang will not fight Zeus fairly, as he has his own advantages.

His philosophy is that even if he is stronger than the enemy, he will not use his disadvantage to fight against the opponent's advantage.

He is a Taoist priest, a support professional, and what he is best at is hiding invisibly and letting his summons fight. Seeing Zeus's confidence, Li Qiang wanted to dampen his confidence.

Li Qiang waved her hand and used the 'Poisoning Technique [Advanced]' to poison Zeus with green and red poisons in succession.

Zeus felt that he was poisoned, so he used lightning to dispel the poison and drank a bottle of potion to replenish his life.

"You despicable guy, you only know how to hide and use some tricks!" he shouted angrily.

Seeing that the World-Destroying Titan did not take action, this was exactly what he wanted. He wanted to delay for some time so that he could contact his ancient allies.

But the skill used by Li Qiang had not yet ended, and then another skill was used.

This is the 'Soul Wall [Advanced]', Zeus felt a soul energy surrounding him.

The advanced 'Soul Wall' confined Zeus to an extremely small range. Zeus only moved his body and found himself in big trouble.

He couldn't take a single step, or even make larger movements of his body.

A wall of soul energy appeared around him, restricting his movements.

"Open it for me!" He used his strongest ability and fully activated the lightning in his hand.

A bolt of lightning fell from the void above his head.

The lightning struck the 'Soul Wall', but the 'Soul Wall' didn't even shake.

"How is this possible!" Zeus found that even lightning could not break through the 'soul wall'.

He couldn't help but get anxious, and lightning bolts kept falling. However, no matter how he attacked, the 'Soul Wall' seemed to be non-existent. He could clearly see it, and it could block his movement, but he just couldn't attack it.

"It's over!" Li Qiang's voice rang out.

Amid the horrified, frustrated, or excited gazes of the gods, the Titan of Destruction reached out and grabbed Zeus' neck.

The big hand completely wrapped around Zeus' neck, and when the big hand touched Zeus, the 'soul wall' disappeared.

Zeus wanted to attack, but the power coming from the hand of the Titan of Destruction was too strong to resist.

The power of the Titan of Destruction completely suppressed Zeus from the inside out, from body to soul.

After suppressing Zeus, Zeus' body also shrank rapidly.

Eventually, Zeus shrank to the height of a mortal. This was the shape he maintained for the longest time, and it also made it easier for the Titan of Destruction to completely suppress him.

The World-Destroying Titan reached out and took the lightning, and handed this artifact, which symbolized the authority of the sky, to Li Qiang.

Then the Titan of Destruction swallowed Zeus into his stomach and used his invincible body to suppress Zeus.

Li Qiang took off his invisible helmet and revealed his true form.

He held a helmet of invisibility in one hand and a lightning bolt in the other.

When the main gods saw the trident on the back of the Titan of Destruction, the artifacts of the three powerful gods all fell into Li Qiang's hands.

"Great Emperor Daqian, I wonder how you plan to deal with Zeus and us?" Queen Hera stepped forward and asked.

She was very far away from Li Qiang and she didn't dare to get too close.

Although they were so far apart, she could still sense the vigorous Daqian luck in Li Qiang.

I'm afraid that only Zeus, the king of gods, Poseidon, the god of the sea, and Hades, the god of the underworld, can face Li Qiang head-on in a short period of time. The other main gods must be careful of backlash when facing such powerful luck.

"Zeus will be suppressed, and when I have the means to restrain him, I may release him! As for you, as I said before, as long as you don't affect Daqian, you will still hold the original divine power!" Li Qiang said with a smile.

Li Qiang did not kill Zeus because he took into consideration his influence. Zeus' pantheon has too many ancient beings. As long as Zeus does not die, the ancient beings of this pantheon will remain sealed.

He would not try to make enemies with too many ancient beings. Even if he felt that he was invincible in this world, that was the invincibility of the summoned creatures, not his own.

At the beginning, he was led into the illusory world of Taixu by the Fairy Jinghuan. In fact, the Fairy Jinghuan was like an ancient god from the West.

If Fairy Jinghuan's body had not been too fragile and unable to unleash the full power of the Grand Illusionary Realm, he would have been defeated by Fairy Jinghuan.

With the example of Fairy Jinghuan, he dared not underestimate any ancient existence.

"Great Emperor Daqian, you defeated Zeus, and this temple should belong to you!" Queen Hera said again.

Her eyes fell on the artifact lightning. If she mastered the artifact lightning, she would also master the Temple of Olympus.

Zeus' power over lightning lies in the divine artifact lightning.

The divine weapon lightning represents the god of the sky, and the Temple of Olympus is the residence of the god of the sky.

It’s just that Zeus is powerful enough that he is called the king of gods.

"This temple will be handed over to you for management. I need to plant magical medicines outside the temple and raise magical fish in the water. You will live here and hand over the magical medicines and magical fish every year!" Li Qiang thought for a while and replied.

This is similar to the Tatar sacred mountain. The venerables came to him and worked for him in the same way.

As for whether these gods are willing or not, he doesn't care.

If it really doesn't work, let's ask a few venerables from the Tatar Sacred Mountain to come here and be responsible for the planting and cultivation here.

The main gods present were actually still willing to live in the Temple of Olympus. In addition, the temple had a new and powerful master, which also indirectly protected the main gods.

Of course, another reason why the gods stayed was that they were worried that if they left the Temple of Olympus, they might be suppressed by Li Qiang for some reason.

As for the reasons, they are easy to find. There are unnecessary reasons at hand.

The main gods discussed it and decided that Queen Hera would come forward.

"Great Emperor Daqian, we are willing to stay in the temple and grow magical medicines and raise spiritual fish!" Queen Hera said with a bow.

"Very good, from now on you will be the righteous gods of Daqian!" Li Qiang said with a smile.

Of course, what he didn't say was that this Great Qian God would only be promoted in Europe and would not be mentioned in the East.

However, this is also the original divine area of ​​the main gods, and will not have any impact on the main gods.

Everyone was happy, but due to the great luck of Li Qiang, Li Qiang did not have too much contact with the main gods.

He left the Temple of Olympus with the artifact lightning, and when he left, he left his spiritual mark in the artifact lightning.

The original spiritual imprint of Zeus was cleared by the Titan of Destruction.

While becoming the master of the divine weapon lightning, he also gained the divine power to control Mount Olympus.
