The aliens who were picked up by Superman at the beginning

The realm of the gods.

The true realm of the Olympians.

Here, a banquet was also set up, ready to begin. The Olympian gods of the True God Realm were also celebrating the emergence of a new god in the multiverse, so they had been preparing for this welcoming ceremony ever since Li Zhen became Pausios.

As far as the divine realm of the four dimensions is concerned, they do not care whether Li Zhen arrives sooner or later, because from the moment the name of Pausios appeared, the arrival of the new god was destined.

But there was a guy who arrived even earlier than Li Zhen.

Darkseid, the ruler of Apokolips who had always been on par with the Olympian gods, suddenly barged into this banquet of the gods that was about to begin.

Darkseid revealed a sinister smile to the astonished gods.

"What? This is a banquet to welcome the new god; shouldn't I be here?"

……

Having ascended to a semi-dimensional state, Li Zhen witnessed everything that happened in the Realm of Gods. Time and space were no longer obstacles to observation. As long as his mental energy was sufficient, Li Zhen could even see scenes from tens of thousands of years ago if he wished.

Darkseid could not have invaded Olympus so smoothly; in fact, most of the powers in the realm of the gods were not that different.

The reason this surprise attack was successful was due to a boost that Li Zhen had overlooked. He had already reached a certain level of power in the three dimensions, threatening Apokolips to prevent it from descending into reality, while simultaneously sealing the breach in the Dark Multiverse's invasion of the Normal Multiverse.

As a result, Darkness joined forces with Darkseid, who was already known as the Dark Lord, in the realm of the gods.

The Dark Multiverse isn't just home to the so-called Dark Knights. The guy who appeared in the Four-Dimensional Gods' Realm this time and joined forces with Darkseid is someone Li Zhen isn't very familiar with.

It is humanoid, with red skin resembling that of a demon, and long black hair with a strand of white hair.

This person, in Darkseid's presence, called himself the Dark Lord, a title bestowed upon him by the wizards of the magical world. However, if Darkseid disliked this, he could be called the Magister.

Darkseid, on the other hand, displayed an unprecedented false tolerance, even acknowledging that the Dark Lord was a ruler of a different realm from himself.

Under the Demon Lord's plan, Darkseid suddenly broke the agreement with Genesis Star and instigated several small-scale local wars.

This once confused Olympus, who thought that Apokolips had gotten into trouble with Genesis again and would not bother Olympus's realm of gods for a while.

These wars that Kexseed instigated were entirely for the purpose of securing a third ally.

When Ares, the god of war, left the battlefield, Li Zhen finally understood why this guy had been so obedient in the three dimensions during this period.

Damn it.

He's secretly plotting something big. Having absorbed the energy of several fourth-dimensional apocalyptic creation wars, Ares has been strengthened like never before.

With the help of this traitor, Darkseid launched a surprise attack on the realm of the gods, landing directly at the celebratory banquet prepared by the gods for Lee Jung, and at the same time immediately taking the most powerful Zeus away from the battlefield.

Afterwards, the Demon Lord joined forces with Ares to severely injure the rest of the main gods and freeze the celebration, plunging all the other gods into eternal stagnation.

Under the influence of the Demon Lord's magic, all multiverse projections related to Olympus, the realm of the gods, were silently affected.

However, since the divine realm did not shut down, the gods in the real-world divine projection were still active, only presenting a rather incompetent and absurd scene.

In other words, the Demon Lord used the reverse influence of the fourth-dimensional divine realm on the real divine realm to create a puppet show that radiated throughout all projected divine realms in the multiverse.

So as not to let someone find out in advance.

Li Zhen didn't know if this "someone" included him, but when his half-finished phantom appeared at the frozen celebration banquet in Olympus, the realm of the gods, three pairs of eyes clearly fell on him.

He should have had nothing to do with the three-dimensional enmity, but after Li Zhen obtained divine power, he naturally became the enemy of Ares, the true god of war.

In the dimensional gap, he fought a battle with Shazam Lee Jung, who had borrowed the blessing of a true god, and was threatened by Lee Jung not to enter the reality of the main universe, the actual ruler of Apokolips, Darkseid himself.

Finally, there's the Dark Lord of Magic, the one who single-handedly manipulated the bizarre chaos in the divine realm.

The Demon Lord stood within the crimson-pink frozen field, gently patting the arm of the completely still Hercules, and smirked at Li Zhen's illusory figure. "It's an honor to meet you, Dark Roadblocker. You're much more astute than I imagined."

What a terrible nickname.

After a brief moment of confusion, Li Zhen remembered the illusory dimension membrane that she had sealed in the world of injustice.

"Just because of that?"

The Demon Lord chuckled slightly.

"What else could it be? The contact between darkness and light was destined, but you, like an accident, always blocked this process in advance due to various coincidences."

Of course, it's not just a coincidence.

Half of it is because I want to be lazy.

Seeing that any one of the three could easily crush her and was now seemingly surrounding her, Li Zhen sighed helplessly.

"I just want to give myself more time to develop."

The Demon Overseer shook his head.

"In that case, the crisis loses its meaning." Compared to the attitude of the Demon Overseer, Darkseid, who had had several real conflicts with Li Zhen, was much more direct.

The red glow of the Omega Rays had begun to flicker, and Darkseid's first words were a rough sound like a large millstone rolling.

"Apokolips must exist in every observable universe. Your threat and your very existence have made the New Gods a laughingstock, and now you've foolishly provoked even more enemies... Death, or begging for mercy, is the only way to end this."

Li Zhen's lips twitched slightly.

Even the Demon Lord could tell at a glance that he wasn't using his true form for a half-dimensional ascension, so there was no reason why Darkseid, the true body, wouldn't be able to tell.

Since it doesn't threaten his actual life, what's the point of saying these polite words?

"If you could really do anything to me in the lower realms, you probably wouldn't be wasting so much breath, would you?"

Li Zhen's courage has always been linked to her ability and control over the situation, so she directly gave Darkseid the middle finger.

"If you're so capable, let your sycophantic followers find someone who can defeat me in reality, otherwise Apokolips will never be able to descend upon my universe!"

Although it is said to be the real body, the one who appeared here to intimidate Li Zhen was still the real body Darkseid. The true body is still restraining Zeus and must concentrate. Otherwise, if Zeus returns to the realm of the gods, the combined freeze of the Demon Lord and Ares will be immediately shattered by Zeus.

Therefore, Darkseid could only rage helplessly in the face of Lee Jung's blatant disrespect, and even began to hope that his dark collaborators would help teach the arrogant Lee Jung a lesson.

Ares's words nearly enraged Darkseid. "The realm of the gods is already under my control. He will never dare to truly ascend to this dimension, otherwise he would immediately fall into our inescapable trap."

Then he looked at Li Zhen.

"So I've already won this round, Pausios."

The Demon Overseer shook his head slightly.

"It's not the essence, so it has no meaning."

"Darkness cannot be stopped. You can stop energy and matter, and even block the magic of darkness, but you cannot stop concepts... This is just a warning. Stop trying to be an obstacle."

Without the three of them needing to work together, the Demon Overseer simply squeezed Li Zhen's semi-ascended body, and it was reduced to basic particles, beyond any hope of survival.

In the real world of gods, Li Zhen opened her eyes and looked at Hermes, who always had a gentle expression... Is this actually a silly grin after being disconnected?

When I went up just now, I think I caught a glimpse of Hermes in the Realm of the Gods, who was in a posture of escaping outwards, also frozen within the crimson realm dominated by the Demon Lord.

Looking around again at the ordinary gods who were all living in a drunken stupor and maintaining the party because they could only keep up with the puppet show, Li Zhen shook her head and turned to leave.

I'm not able to help right now, so let it freeze for now.
