Chapter 1316 The Unfathomable Zeus

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi's eyes lit up.

He could roughly guess what Zeus wanted to say and what his plans were.

What was initially thought to be an incomparably powerful artifact of the Three Realms and Six Paths turned out to be quite simple in the end.

"That's what I think. Our primary task right now is to find Qin Guang, who has been missing for a long time, right? After we find him, we'll reclaim the divine power from him. Then we'll be able to use our special ability to control the dead to find the location of the Supreme Heavenly Lord."

Zeus's words didn't reveal much information; much of it had to be deduced through imagination.

Now, Lin Yi is able to deduce the purpose based on the limited information and statements given by the Immortal King, which demonstrates Lin Yi's intelligence analysis capabilities.

To become a true master, one needs not only combat experience and formidable fighting skills, but also, and perhaps more importantly, intelligence analysis ability.

Lin Yi's ability to achieve his current level of success is undoubtedly related to his intelligence analysis skills.

Zeus clapped his hands:

That's right, Lord Lin Yi, your speculation is absolutely correct. Just as you said, if we want to get to the bottom of things, we can only find Qin Zhu.

Why has the Celestial King been trying to distance himself from Qin Zhu and Hades for so many years?

It was never about the art of emperors controlling people and balancing the relationships between different forces; rather, it was because he didn't want anyone to discover the location of the Supreme Heavenly Lord.

Hades only realized how important he was after hearing these words.

The collaboration between myself and Qin Zhu failed to materialize because the Immortal King was secretly sabotaging things.

After the destruction of Dark Xing, the order of the heavens returned to stability. In this environment, anyone traveling must go through very strict approval procedures; otherwise, powerful high-ranking gods would not allow them to enter lower planes.

None of the people present, or the gods from other factions, were able to pass the approval process to enter the lower plane.

They had no suitable reason, and they didn't want to attract the attention of the Celestial King.

Therefore, the only one left who can do this is Lin Yi.

Is it luck or misfortune?

Fortunately, the future direction of the Three Realms and Six Paths is in our own hands.

Lin Yi remains at the forefront of this era's tide.

If you say I have a hard life, then I really have a hard life. Whether on Earth or in this higher plane, I have to do many complicated things myself.

Just as I was marveling at this, the sound of debate reached my ears.

The twelve Olympian gods began to discuss among themselves.

More than ten years have passed since the Nine Nether Incident. After that, Qin Zhu disappeared along with the members of the Dark Rising Organization.

Looking back at the development of the Dark Rising Organization, there were periods of forbearance, prosperity, decline, and eventual complete destruction. However, Qin Zhu seems to be quite out of step with the organization's development.

Regardless of the course of development, this guy remained hidden behind the scenes. Even after the Dark Rising Organization was completely destroyed, Qin Zhu never reappeared.

The Demon Clan he led was like a ticking time bomb, constantly keeping the Celestial King from feeling at ease.

Regardless of which faction it is, the competition has never stopped.

There is competition between strong individuals of the same level, as well as competition between those at the bottom and those at the top.

Hades, as one of the twelve Olympian gods, possesses considerable power and holds great prestige among the Celestial Kings.

He has always believed that he is no less capable than Zeus, whether in terms of strength or intellect.

Today, he finally understood that he had always underestimated his superior, Zeus, and his strength. In terms of combat power, whether Hades wanted to admit it or not, Zeus always had the upper hand.

Although we don't know how much pressure was applied, it's certain that Zeus is definitely stronger.

The difference in strength wasn't too great, which made Hades feel that he still had a chance to turn the tables and make up for the gap in strength between the two through some special means or battle plans.

As for intellect, Hades thought himself very capable, believing his mind far surpassed Zeus's.

But today, Hades realized that those who hold high positions and remain there for so long are not necessarily lucky.

To remain standing in a high and lonely position must require extraordinary strength.

That's how it is with the Celestial King.

When his prestige was shaken, he remained calm and used various means to stabilize the situation, ultimately proving his strength.

After eliminating the rebellious Hou of the Dark Rising Organization, he swiftly annihilated those who had once been disloyal to him.

As for Zeus, he's not bad either.

He seemed to have anticipated that things would develop in this direction, and had even arranged for himself and Qin Zhu to communicate in advance.

It is not hard to see that Zeus had been planning this for at least several thousand years and was making the story unfold in the direction he desired.

This guy has terrifying organizational skills.

Unlike this guy who's usually obsessed with fighting and killing, he's genuinely skilled.

Thinking about this, Hades couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

Thousands of years ago, Hades once dreamed of replacing Olympus and becoming the supreme ruler of the Olympian faction. Now, thinking back on it, he feels a chill run down his spine.

Zeus probably knew all about what he had done, what he had done behind Zeus's back.

"How about this, Lord Lin Yi? Is that alright with you?"

When Zeus mentioned that the Olympians had been planning for today's actions for a long time, Lin Yi couldn't help but praise Zeus's grand strategy.

However, when I turned my gaze to Hades, I saw that he was in a daze and his expression was not very good.

"Does Hades have some concerns? Could it be that Qin Zhu has changed positions?"

How could Lin Yi not know Qin Zhu's location? Saying this was just calling out Hades.

Coming back to his senses, Hades quickly began to explain.

"Qin Zhu's location hasn't changed. Zeus, who is very shrewd, established contact with Qin Zhu ten years ago. At that time, he didn't give us a clear answer, but he should be on our side."

Lin Yi knew Qin Zhu's location, but he didn't say anything.

After obtaining the specific coordinates, Lin Yi prepared to head home.

"I can't leave right now. The black mist is unusable for the time being. I'll probably have to wait a few days. Once I get the equipment, I'll set off immediately. In the meantime, you guys shouldn't be idle. Keep moving around and make arrangements. I believe that if the strong people from other factions aren't stupid, they won't refuse our proposal to cooperate."

Upon hearing this, the twelve main gods immediately stood up from their positions and respectfully bowed to Lin Yi.

Then Zeus spoke.

“We were all born at the wrong time. The order of the heavens seems stable, but in reality, there are undercurrents. We, the people of Olympus, know that in the eyes of the Celestial King, we are nothing more than pawns that can be discarded at any time, and we may be sacrificed to the heavens one day.”

"Therefore, we have to consider our own way out. From now on, the future of our Olympus faction is in your hands, Lord Lin Yi. As long as you can find a way out for us, we will be willing to serve you as our king."
