Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

Chapter 432: Goro

Once the three gods reached a consensus, dealing with the undead became a breeze.

After all, there was the Skeletal Sage, an expert in undead creatures, and their aim was not to kill the undead but to find a way to control or even subdue him.

After an extraordinarily long time, the Blacksmith God undead had completely lost its self-awareness, acting entirely on instinct.

"Time has worn away the Blacksmith God's consciousness. Now he only has his undead instincts left, so it's not hard to control him." Stevenson said, "But I'm rather curious: how did he awaken?"

An undead that had been slumbering for tens of thousands of years wouldn't have woken up on its own—so the Skeletal Sage looked at Karina.

If the two of them knew that someone deliberately released this undead, they would probably be more vigilant.

But Karina didn't care about that. She just urged them to capture the other party as soon as possible.

Stevenson shook his head. "I'll set up a magic circle. You guys keep him inside the circle and weaken his soul fire as much as possible. Everything will be settled once the magic circle is completed."

Weakening the soul fire of an undead actually just meant injuring him as much as possible.

Karina shrugged, indicating that she couldn't do anything about that, so Lewis said, "Leave that to me."

Even though the law of tenebrosity didn't specialize in offense or defense, he was after all a Tier 10 god, and the level suppression helped him deal enough damage.

Many people felt that Karina's attack power was very weak, but they actually ignored her true level.

With her Tier 8 power, this was naturally the result when going up against a Tier 9 or 10 enemy. But once she advances to Tier 10, she would truly become invincible besides attacks from greater gods.

The Skeletal Sage busied himself with setting up the magic circle while the other two began to attack the undead. Karina was in charge of holding it back while Lewis was in charge of dealing damage.

Compared to the Wrestling Goddess, Lewis actually knew more about how to kill undead creatures, or rather, he had more methods for dealing with them.

The sharp blade of tenebrosity fell and directly sliced through a small part of the dark giant's head, revealing the soul fire burning within.

The dark giant, on the other hand, didn't feel anything until the darkness landed on that flame, causing him to let out an astonishing roar.

"A very tough soul." Lewis couldn't help sighing with emotion, actually looking more pleased than troubled.

Even though such a soul was causing him trouble right now, the undead would be able to remain for a long time once he subdued it.

It was as if Lewis could already see himself easily occupying a main plane for ten thousand years and accumulating a huge amount of faith.

One blade of darkness after another hit the soul fire continuously, causing the dark giant to constantly roar in pain, but it was powerless to resist the two's siege.

Karina could easily block all of his attacks, and the God of Tenebrosity was even less likely to be affected by them.

Finally, as the aura of the Blacksmith God undead gradually weakened, Stevenson finished his spell.

The deathly aura that rose up to the sky satisfied Lewis. The Skeletal Sage had also put his heart into it, otherwise it would be hard to set up a grand magic circle of this level in a short time—

unless he already prepared this in advance.

Lewis felt a violent jolt in his heart when he had this thought, as if he realized something, but his realization had come too late.

A staff made of bones pointed at his back, and the characteristic gloomy voice from the Skeletal Sage rang out.

"Now then, fall into the trap, Lord Lewis."

A ball of white flames erupted from the tip of the bony staff, instantly engulfing Lewis's entire being.

Such an attack couldn't truly hurt Lewis, but it could make him fall into the magic circle that had just been laid out.

Lewis wasn't wrong—the Skeletal Sage had indeed prepared in advance, and it was a trap prepared just for him.

The instant Lewis fell, a Daoist talisman seemed to fall from the sky and instantly land on top of Lewis' head.

A dazzling green light radiated from the Daoist talisman and began to crazily drill into Lewis's body. But trapped inside the skeletal magic circle, Lewis was unable to free his hands to block it and could only watch the green light entering his body.

Daoist Lingyang slowly stepped out. He was finally able to recklessly cast his gaze upon the purple-robed youth in front of him.

Seemingly sensing the new arrival's malice, Lewis also finally figured out the mastermind behind this trap.

He didn't recognize the other party, but that was normal. Lewis had killed too many people in his life. How could he remember every single enemy?

But he never expected for the other party to get the help of the Skeletal Sage.

"Stevenson, this won't do you any good." After the unavoidable green light entered his body, Lewis simply chose not to resist and instead looked at the Skeletal Sage.

"You can't give me what I want. But this… Mm, His Excellency Daoist priest, can." Stevenson obviously didn't know much about the Myriad Heavens, and the way he addressed Daoist Lingyang was a bit ridiculous.

Lewis's gaze turned slightly cold. He began trying to mobilize the law of tenebrosity, but to no avail. Instead, it made the green light enter even faster.

The man with the strange attire was obviously using his full power to control the green light in order to finish in the shortest possible time.

Lewis didn't know what this green light was, but it wasn't anything good.

His gaze moved to Karina. The Wrestling Goddess wasn't trapped inside the magic circle. In other words, she still had strength to spare if she stepped in to help.

However, without waiting for him to open his mouth, Stevenson already said, "Lord Karina, I will give you a complete and controllable Blacksmith God undead once we finish off Lewis."

And so Karina stopped moving as well, revealing a disinterested expression. Anyhow, she wasn't afraid of people reneging.

Another option was snuffed out, but the expression on Lewis's face didn't change much. Instead, he became silent.

As for the Blacksmith God undead beside Lewis, his soul fire was already close to sputtering out and was being continuously exhausted inside the skeletal magic circle.

If Daoist Lingyang's movements were any slower, perhaps even before Lewis fell, the Blacksmith God undead would be the first to perish.

Right at this moment, the Dark Emperor standing below them suddenly sighed and said to one of the people in the group behind him, "Goro, it's up to you now."

A man holding a black greatsword, his body hidden in pitch-black armor, slowly stepped out as he smiled lightly. "It seems that Lord Lewis's caution was correct."

"I didn't expect for me, his trump card," the armored warrior Goro couldn't avoid it.

A sword cloud fell from the sky, precisely blocking the way to lifted his greatsword slightly, "to actually come in handy."

In the next second, the pitch-black silhouette instantly appeared in midair. Now on the same level as the many gods, his sword chopped down.

At the same time, Lewis, who'd remained silent until now, suddenly raised his head, and two purple rays of light shot out from his eyes, heading straight for Daoist Lingyang.

The last of the power of tenebrosity broke out of the magic circle, and since Daoist Lingyang had to control the talisman, he naturally couldn't avoid it.

A sword cloud fell from the sky, precisely blocking the way to Daoist Lingyang, before revealing Xue Ren's figure.

However, there wasn't much triumph on his face, because after saving his old friend, he could no longer stop that pitch-black warrior in time.

Lewis finally revealed a cold smile and shouted, "You can't deal with them. Break this magic circle for me and release the Blacksmith God undead!"
