Dragon scales appeared on Ao Yuan's hands.
Then Ao Yuan exerted force with a blank expression.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Hermes's foot was caught as if by steel pliers.
It was slowly moved away from Ao Yuan's neck.
"Ah..."
Hermes yelped in pain, struggling continuously.
"Dragon God, be careful!"
Just then, a warning sound suddenly erupted from within the Weak Water shield.
Ao Yuan turned his head to see that those blade waves were already upon him.
Now.
His choices were few.
One was to abandon Hermes and dodge.
The other was to let the blade waves strike him.
Ao Yuan watched calmly, making no move, letting the blade waves surge down.
These blade waves dazzled everyone.
The expressions of the various deities held an indescribable excitement.
Ao Yuan was being arrogant!
Although Hermes hadn't harmed Ao Yuan just now, which was highly suspicious,
This time was different from before.
Perhaps a single blade wave was not as powerful as Hermes's kick, but could so many combined not be as powerful?
This time Ao Yuan would surely be injured!
As expected!
In the blink of an eye, as the blade waves all struck Ao Yuan,
They could already see many cracks on Ao Yuan's body, and even specks of blood flashed.
However.
The outcome was extremely surprising.
It was seen that.
As the blade waves dissipated, Ao Yuan's body did have some injuries.
But these injuries were healing at a visible rate.
Some smaller wounds had completely recovered.
This scene.
Caused the expressions of everyone to change one after another.
Only Ao Yuan.
His expression remained unchanged.
Instead, he tore off the wing beneath his foot and casually discarded it.
"Ah! It hurts, it hurts so much!"
Hermes's face contorted, and he wailed uncontrollably.
Ao Yuan still paid no heed, holding him with one hand, and his foot with the other, twisting it clockwise.
Crack crack crack!
The sounds of bone fractures rang out incessantly.
In an instant, Hermes's foot was directly twisted into a pretzel shape.
Then Ao Yuan threw Hermes away as if he were trash.
At this moment.
Everyone fell silent, their faces unable to conceal a deep sense of horror.
Looking at Ao Yuan, who had almost fully recovered.
A sense of dread rose in all their hearts.
They were all in the Kai Shen realm, so why was Ao Yuan so powerful?
Especially since they could clearly sense that Ao Yuan's realm was not higher than theirs, and was even slightly lower.
Was this the might of the Dragon race?
No.
They had fought against dragons before, and ordinary dragons were nowhere near as formidable as Ao Yuan.
Especially.
Ao Yuan was not even fighting in his true form now.
Having fought with dragons, they knew dragons very well.
No, or rather, only when a demon beast was in its true form could it unleash its greatest power.
And if Ao Yuan, in human form, was already this powerful, how strong would he be in his true form?
"Why are you still standing there?"
As they were contemplating, Ao Yuan suddenly turned his head towards them.
Ao Yuan looked at them, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips, and said, "Do you not wish to fight?"
"If you really don't want to, then I won't be polite with you!"
As these words resounded through the heavens and earth,
The expressions of the seven people instantly darkened, a mix of shock and anger.
They were shocked by Ao Yuan's words.
And angered by his words.
After all, his words, in another sense, meant that he did not take them seriously.
The few exchanged glances, and then, whether injured or not,
They helped each other up.
"Everyone, let's strike together!"
"Only by doing so do we have a sliver of hope!"
As Apollo's words fell, the others nodded in succession.
Following that.
The seven fixed their gazes directly on Ao Yuan.
Instantly.
Seven terrifying auras erupted from their bodies.
The terrifying auras caused even the heavens and earth to change color.
Even the demon beasts deep within the Weak Water shield couldn't help but show fear.
This was an innate sense of pressure.
The pressure of a higher rank upon a lower rank.
If these terrifying auras were not directed solely at Ao Yuan, they would have long since fallen to their knees in submission.
Recalling how they had once thought of standing up for Ao Yuan.
Now, it seemed ridiculous.
Someone's mere aura could completely suppress them.
How could they possibly help Ao Yuan then?
And at this moment.
Sensing this terrifying aura, Ao Yuan's calm eyes finally showed a hint of seriousness.
But more than that, there was an overwhelming fighting spirit.
He also wanted to know how powerful he was now that he had ascended to the Kai Shen realm.
"Go! To the sky!"
Ao Yuan roared, leaping into the air and flying straight towards the heavens.
Seeing this, the other few exchanged glances and followed without a word.
They were not going to trouble the Demon Court, because once Ao Yuan was dead, the Demon Court would be as easy to destroy as flipping a palm.
At this moment!
Mid-air.
Ao Yuan stood suspended in the air, his wide robe billowing, his eyes filled with disdain.
Opposite him stood seven individuals of varied appearances, yet all exuding an air of authority.
These people were completely different from how they had appeared before.
Like Apollo, his body was enveloped in divine light!
Like the Moon Goddess, she wore a light-colored long dress, her black hair cascading down her back like a waterfall, and a crescent moon faintly visible behind her head.
Like the Fire God Styx, his face was extremely ugly, but instead of being scrawny, he was now as strong as a giant mountain.
...
Scanning them one by one, a smile flickered in Ao Yuan's pale golden eyes.
Because.
He understood that these were the true forms of these deities.
And that they were willing to reveal their true forms.
Undoubtedly, they intended to unleash their full strength.
To say there was no pressure would be impossible.
But in the face of this pressure, Ao Yuan felt a burning fighting spirit ignite within him.
"Ao Yuan!"
"I will give you one last chance."
"If you are willing to stop now, we can let this matter drop."
Apollo's eyes sparkled with divine radiance, his voice like thunder.
The other six remained silent, their gazes fixed on Ao Yuan.
It was clear that among them, Apollo was the leader.
"Is it too late to say this now?" Ao Yuan chuckled and waved his hand.
An incomparable brilliant light appeared out of thin air in his hand.
As it appeared, Ao Yuan's aura seemed to strengthen.
The faces of the seven shifted slightly, and they looked closely.
It was seen that.
It was a spear!
The spear was entirely black, with flecks of blue stripes, and a vivid dragon silhouette carved upon it.
In addition, the spear was covered in fine golden dragon scales.
It looked extremely imposing.
However.
Upon seeing Ao Yuan's weapon.
Their expressions changed drastically.
...
