Athena's eyes were completely filled with darkness.
Everywhere you look, the ground, flowers, trees and plants begin to petrify rapidly.
"Snapped!"
Lu Li snapped his fingers, and a honeycomb-shaped magic shield instantly appeared around his body.
"Magic? But even magic cannot withstand my divine power!"
Then Lu Li saw the magic shield petrifying at a visible speed.
Bang!
The magic shield petrified and shattered.
"Snapped!"
Lu Li released another magic shield.
Athena said triumphantly, "It's no use. Everything I see will turn to stone. All your struggles will be in vain. Just obediently be petrified and face death. I guarantee you won't feel any pain."
"Death? I've experienced it once, that's enough. I don't want to go through it again."
Lu Li recalled the scene of slowly facing death in the hospital. It was the loneliest and most helpless moment for him. Anyone who has died once would never want to die a second time.
Lu Li raised his palm.
Rumble—!
Lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating almost the entire night.
Athena looked up and found that the thunder that had been raining down had stopped sometime earlier.
Only the thunderclouds in the sky were making a soft rumbling sound.
However, Athena could clearly sense an incredibly terrifying power gathering above the thunderclouds...
The evidence is that my own hair started to be pulled upwards uncontrollably.
This place is so high above the clouds, what kind of electricity could possibly penetrate the clouds and affect her, a goddess?
Soon, Athena found out what it was.
The dense clouds in the sky parted, and a huge ball of lightning, hundreds of meters in diameter, emerged from the clouds and pierced downwards.
Athena was stunned by what she saw.
"You crazy man!!!"
Athena couldn't help but scream in terror.
Athena, no longer caring about being petrified, used all her divine power to create giant serpents that surrounded and protected her.
"Prepare for the judgment of thunder!"
"God's punishment!!!"
Lu Li let out a loud shout.
A massive ball of lightning descended from the sky, as if an apocalyptic catastrophe had arrived.
At this moment, on a distant mountaintop, three people had appeared beside Erica at some point; they were the three leaders of Italian magic societies.
She called three people before she arrived, because nothing is more convincing than witnessing the battle between a god-slayer and a god firsthand.
Although the daytime battle had impressed several people, he was simply too weak to be Lu Li's opponent and could not force Lu Li to reveal his true strength.
Athena, as a powerful and unruly goddess, is the most suitable opponent for Lu Li.
The three of them rushed over as soon as they received Erica's call, just in time to see Lu Li and Athena begin their battle.
"So powerful!! Lord Lu Li is too strong!"
The three of them were thrilled to see Lu Li's battle.
It should be noted that even as leaders of ancient magic societies, they had rarely witnessed battles between god-slayers and disobedient gods.
Erica was much calmer than them. She had witnessed battles of this level several times before: once against the God of War Veleslana, once against Kaido in Whitebeard's world, and once against the God King Mercato.
Of course, even if she saw it many times, she would still feel excited and proud; the man who had subdued the gods was her man.
Chapter 118 Athena's Confusion
At that moment, they saw Lu Li summon a huge ball of lightning from the sky.
"Oh my god!!!"
Everyone who saw this was stunned.
A massive ball of lightning plummeted downwards, as if divine punishment had descended upon the world.
boom-----!!!
A deafening explosion followed, and a powerful shockwave swept through the area.
The ear-piercing roar illuminated the entire night.
The powerful lightning destroyed everything around it, with a devastating force.
Even four people several kilometers away were affected by the powerful blast wave.
Let's defend together.
After a while, the explosion subsided.
The four of them then slowly poked their heads out and looked towards the valley.
Upon seeing this, everyone was dumbfounded.
The once lush forest in the valley was now completely empty, as if a meteorite had fallen there.
"This...is this a battle between gods?"
No wonder there's an ironclad rule in the magic world:
Do not attempt to challenge the King and the Disobedient Gods in any way; they are not even the same species as humans.
After witnessing Lu Li and Athena's battle firsthand, they finally understood the meaning of those words.
Where is Lord Lu Li?
The group looked around but couldn't find Lu Li.
Everyone became anxious. The power of the explosion was terrifying. Lord Lu Li was so close to the blast site; could something have happened to him?
Crack! Crack!
Lightning began to gather, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into Lu Li's appearance.
Seeing Lu Li appear, the group breathed a sigh of relief.
Then everyone turned their gaze toward Athena's location.
The area where Athena was located was now pitch black, with traces of lightning scorching everywhere, making it look like a meteorite crater.
Snap!
The ground shattered, and a person whose body was burned beyond recognition slowly crawled out of the crater.
"He's still alive?!"
The group was shocked to see that Athena was still alive after such an attack.
Then Athena began to shed her skin rapidly, and after the molting, Athena's injuries were completely healed.
"Hoohoo!!"
Athena knelt on the ground, panting heavily.
This molting process consumed a great deal of her divine power, a consumption that even Athena, who possessed three divine attributes, could not withstand.
She almost died. Her immortality is based on the immortality of her physical body. If her physical body were to completely disappear, she would also be killed.
A short while later, Athena recovered somewhat, stood up, and looked at Lu Li: "Blaboteur, you have truly exceeded my expectations."
"You were so close, so very close to killing me."
"But now you no longer have that chance. The divine power of your [Godhood of Wind] and [Godhood of Thunder] has been completely exhausted. In the end, you still lost."
Lu Li nodded: "Yes! The divine power of my [Wind Godhood] and [Thunder Godhood] has indeed been completely exhausted, but when did I say that I only have two godhoods?"
Athena's face turned pale upon hearing Lu Li's words.
"No! Impossible! How could a mere god-slayer possess so many divine attributes?!"
"You should know that even among gods, those who possess three divine sparks are extremely rare!"
"I absolutely do not believe you have a third divine spark!!"
Lu Li smiled but didn't say anything more:
"Switch! [God of War]!"
The blue and white light around Lu Li changed, turning into pure white.
Athena immediately sensed that the other party's divine nature had indeed changed again.
"It's actually true......"
Athena's eyes glazed over.
She, Athena, is one of the most widely known goddesses in the world, and only three of her stars were able to achieve divinity.
The other party, a mere god-slayer who stole the power of the gods, a petty thief, actually possessed three divine titles so easily.
This made her feel that she, the goddess of wisdom, looked so ridiculous, and compared to the other person, she was simply an idiot goddess.
But wisdom calmed her down. She was fighting, trying to cast aside all her wild thoughts and figure out how to deal with the formidable enemy before her.
Swish——!
Darkness gathered in Athena's hand, and a jet-black scythe of death appeared in her grasp.
"Lu Li, since you have used the [Godhood of War], it must be a godhood related to combat. As the God of War, how could I back down? This time, I will use force to settle the score with you."
"Let's see who has the superior martial arts skills, you or me!"
After Athena finished speaking, she charged towards Lu Li with her black scythe in hand.
The giant scythe slashed towards Lu Li's neck, as if to sever it.
Suddenly, Lu Li moved, his body moving forward quickly. He blocked Athena's scythe of death with his left hand, and his right hand touched Athena's chest. Then, Lu Li stepped forward with his right foot, the power rising from his foot, then passing through his body, then his shoulder, and finally his palm.
Bang————!
Click, click—!
A sound of bone breaking was heard from Athena's chest, and there was a noticeable dent.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuah!!"
Athena screamed and flew backwards towards 207.
Lu Li ignored Athena's screams, looked at his hands, and felt a sense of wonder.
He seemed to be born with certain skills; as long as he had a thought, his body could execute it precisely.
This must be the god-like fighting skills, combat awareness, and insight of the 'camel' incarnation.
Athena was moving very fast, but to him it was like slow motion; he was moving much faster.
This is the divine speed and sensory acceleration provided by the 'Phoenix' incarnation.
In addition, there's the rushing power of the 'wild boar' transformation and the strength of the 'bull' transformation.
This power came too easily, making Lu Li feel somewhat unreal.
Of course, although this power has surged, Lu Li can control it well. If he activates the Dragon God Transformation, his overall qualities are even higher than this.
His main purpose this time was to test the power of the divine power; he had no intention of using magic.
Not far away, Athena stood up again.
In one move, just one move, he was sent flying.
She represents war, not that she is particularly powerful militarily.
