Chapter 156: You Want to Acknowledge Me as Your Godfather? Then You Must Die!
His dull and terrified eyes inadvertently caught sight of the Cursed Warrior lying on the ground, cut as smooth as a mirror, split in two, transparent from top to bottom, enjoying a baby-like quality of sleep!
The Dark Elf King instantly became bewildered. That's right, although he hadn't seen Gu Fan's swift movement of drawing his saber to cut him, he did see the shining long saber Gu Fan was holding in his hand now!
The Dark Elf King frowned tightly, suddenly realizing his entire left arm had been instantly severed!
His reaction was very quick; he immediately reached out to try and retrieve his severed arm that was about to fall to the ground.
After all, the Dark Elf King's physical constitution was powerful; as long as the arm was still there, he had many ways to reattach it.
But before his hand could touch his severed arm, a golden energy enveloped the severed arm and began to emit a dazzling golden glow!
Then, just as his fingers were about to grasp his severed arm, the golden light suddenly intensified!
The strong light shone on everyone, forcing them to shield their eyes.
Only a 'boom!' was heard! The severed arm instantly exploded and burned!
Before anyone could react, the severed arm was completely incinerated... The Dark Elf King was instantly dumbfounded, his eyes wide with disbelief!
He looked down at his smoothly severed shoulder, which surprisingly had not shed a single drop of blood.
Then he looked at Gu Fan's Tang Blade with a puzzled expression.
The Dark Elf King was instantly confused. He could clearly feel his shoulder burning with pain now! But he still gritted his teeth, not uttering a sound!
Looking at the golden light on Gu Fan's Tang Blade, the Dark Elf King's eyes narrowed. He believed it was this strange energy that quickly severed his arm and melted and cooked his flesh, which was why his arm hadn't bled!
As for the golden glow and explosion on the severed arm? The Dark Elf King had no clue... However, the explosion did injure the Dark Elf King. Being so close, the Dark Elf Kingimmediately became disheveled, his face blackened, and numerous small wounds began to bleed continuously... Gu Fan raised his chin, pointing the white lollipop stick at the Dark Elf King, and mocked with a laugh: "Yo, invincible big brother! Why is your arm severed? What? Want to learn from Guo'er? Where's your Condor? Where's your Aunt? Bring them over for me to see?!"
Apparently, the Dark Elf King didn't understand Gu Fan's sarcasm at all. He just glared at Gu Fan with fierce eyes, roaring furiously: "Die for this King, you ant!"
Then he immediately swung his remaining arm, continuously manipulating the powerful Aether Particle, forcefully activating it to attack Gu Fan!
The vast, dark-red Aether Particle, mixed with terrifying pressure, surged forward as if to devour all enemies in its path!
The Dark Elf King's lips curved upward maniacally, regaining his arrogant and confident smile! His eyes were filled with disdain, as if looking at a corpse, as he faintly glanced at Gu Fan.
After all, even he couldn't withstand such powerful Aether Particle. Let alone the ant before him!
His arm earlier was just due to his carelessness; he didn't dodge, didn't protect himself well. It wouldn't happen again!
Thinking this, the Dark Elf King once again mobilized some Aether Particle from within his body, gathering it around himself as protection. Only then did he wait, satisfied and confident, for Gu Fan's miserable death.
Due to the immense power of the Aether Particle, strong winds formed all around. Tony, Natasha, and the others all looked terrified and had to retreat immediately, feeling slightly better only after moving far away from Gu Fan and the Dark Elf King.
Ignoring what the Dark Elf King said, Gu Fan's eyes narrowed with a cold glint! He instantly swung another saber!
This time he cut off one of the Dark Elf King's legs. The cut appeared smoothly from the base of the thigh, and the severed leg still exploded and completely burned to ashes, enveloped in golden light... The continuous severe injuries were too much even for a powerful being like the Dark Elf King!
Large beads of sweat continuously streamed down his forehead, and his originally arrogant and proud face instantly contorted in immense pain!
Though his teeth were still tightly clenched, they began to chatter uncontrollably... "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"You, what exactly did you do to me? How can you be fine after such a powerful attack! And my leg? What in the world is going on?" The Dark Elf King's face was distorted, first with confusion, then he immediately yelled furiously at Gu Fan!
Due to multiple severe injuries and overly agitated and unstable emotions, the Dark Elf King's crippled body, floating in the sky, began to sway and become unstable.
"Oh, is that all it takes? Weren't you so amazing? Weren't you very arrogant when you first arrived! Is this all you've got? You can't even block a casual swing of my saber! Still calling yourself invincible! Still talking about Aether Particle?" Gu Fan raised an eyebrow, questioning him with an arrogant expression.
"After all that, this is it? Humph! Weren't you so pretentious, even trying to snatch my woman! Is this it? You noob! Wasting my time!" Gu Fan bit down, crushing the lollipop in his mouth, his eyes revealing a bloodthirsty and ruthless glint!
"No, no, killing me won't do you any good. Look, we actually have no conflict! I can give you money! Treasures! Beautiful women from all races!" The Dark Elf King's face showed terror, but then his eyes shifted, and he began to speak to Gu Fan with a sneer.
Seeing that Gu Fan didn't speak or act, the Dark Elf King's eyes immediately lit up, secretly revealing the thought that it was indeed as he expected, feeling that there was hope.
So he made up his mind: first, appease you, then kill all of you! Steal your woman and make her my dog!
"Look, you are so powerful! I have soldiers, we can cooperate and rule the Nine Realms together! You will be the King of the Nine Realms!" The Dark Elf King looked at Gu Fan excitedly, his eyes full of hope!
"Is that all? Heh, then your gift is a bit lacking. You can't give me what I want! So, more importantly, you dared to covet my woman! You'd better die a painful death!" Gu Fansneered, glancing at this so-called King.
"No, no, please, please let me go! I was wrong! I was wrong! I'll take my people and leave immediately! Never again invade Asgard."
"No! It's never again invade the Planets of the Nine Realms! We won't leave our own Planet! Spare my dog life! Please! I'm even willing to pledge allegiance to you as my Lord! Godfather!" The Dark Elf King's face was filled with terror! He continuously waved his single arm, cold sweat covering his originally arrogant face!
Gu Fan's mouth twitched, and a more ruthless cold smile appeared on his face. He said faintly: "You don't know you were wrong, you know you're going to die! You're scared! Scared of death! Humph! Godfather? You must die!"
Chapter 157: The Dark Elf King with Severed Limbs, Don't Come Near Me... Amidst the terrified expression of the Dark Elf King, Gu Fan smiled and slowly raised his Tang Blade once more!
The same flash of blade light shone!
The Dark Elf King's other arm was also chopped off, and then golden light flashed, burning in an explosion, until it finally vanished completely!
The Dark Elf King, enduring endless agony, finally broke down. Although he wouldn't immediately die from excessive bleeding, losing his limbs and the blood within would quickly cause him to weaken.
The Dark Elf King knew that his path to survival had completely vanished, and he terrifyingly realized that this hateful enemy before him would not grant him a quick death!
The immense physical pain he was constantly enduring, coupled with the endless mental pressure, finally crushed the Dark Elf King's resolve.
The Dark Elf King lost control over the Aether Particlewithin his body.
As the Aether Particle rapidly spun out of control, the Dark Elf King, who had been floating high in the sky, instantly plummeted to the ground!
The unbearable pain caused him to constantly wail, trembling and convulsing all over, weeping profusely.
The Dark Elf King used his one remaining leg to push himself inch by inch along the ground, trying to crawl away and escape, but due to his severe injuries, he struggled like a grotesque insect.
But to little avail... "You bastard! You deserve to die! You're the one stopping the great revival of us Dark Elves! We just want to rule the Nine Realms! Everything should rightfully belong to our noble Dark Elf race! You are all mere ants!" Feeling that escape was hopeless, the Dark Elf Kinginstantly became ferocious and began to roar loudly and painfully at Gu Fan!
"Last time we attacked, it was Odin's father and those powerful God Kings thousands of years ago who stopped me! Now it's you, this damned fellow, stopping me! But you can't stop everything! Hahaha..."
"There are countless powerful beings in the Universe! They will covet the Nine Realms sooner or later! When that time comes, it will be your complete downfall! I look forward to that day arriving soon! Hahaha..." The Dark Elf King broke down and began cursing wildly!
While Gu Fan and the Dark Elf King were talking, Tony, Rhodes, Natasha, and the others watched everything from afar, dumbfounded, feeling that the change was too fast for them to even react!
This seemingly invincible Dark Elf King was so easily reduced to a Torso!
His attitude shift was comparable to a Thomas Rotary Accelerator! This little combo was too smooth... Truly worthy of the legendary Monarch level... Queen Frigga, meanwhile, experienced multiple emotional ups and downs! She was afraid Gu Fan might be tempted by the Dark Elf King's words.
If that were the case, the Nine Realms might truly be beyond saving... But Queen Frigga dared not interrupt, fearing she might displease Gu Fan. She could only constantly hope internally that Gu Fan would uphold justice!
It wasn't until Gu Fan attacked the Dark Elf King again that Queen Frigga nodded in satisfaction, knowing she truly hadn't misjudged Gu Fan.
Captain America, however, was filled with worry. If the powerhouses within the Nine Realms were this exaggerated, what would happen if the even greater powerhouses the Dark Elf King mentioned, those outside the Nine Realms, truly coveted Earth?
They were simply not strong enough! There was probably nothing they could do. Captain America frowned constantly, pondering inwardly, and decided that upon returning to Earth, he must report all these crucial sights, sounds, and information to Director Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D.!
Gu Fan, however, was not in a hurry at all. He allowed the Dark Elf King to curse, knowing that death would likely be a release for a guy like this. It was better to let him feel more pain.
After all, whether dying sooner or later, death was certain!
But making him die a painful, tortured death—that was something the truly enraged Gu Fan was very willing to do!
"Peh! You talk too much!" Gu Fan fiercely spat out the white plastic candy stick in his mouth! It landed right on the Dark Elf King's face... Gu Fan raised his hand again, and after another strike, the Dark Elf King's last leg also completely vanished!
The Dark Elf King trembled all over, instantly becoming even weaker, and his voice grew softer... "P-p-please, be m-m-merciful, kill me! I can't take it anymore! P-p-please!" The Dark Elf King raised his head, his vicious gaze finally changing as he gasped for breath, pleading brokenly.
Outside the room, the Dark Elf King's various spacecraft and warriors were locked in battle with the warriors of Asgard!
Explosions, roars! Painful wails rose and fell continuously!
Fire and death enveloped half the horizon!
Yet, none of it could drown out the Dark Elf King's faint pleas for mercy.
The Dark Elf King's warriors were still fighting frantically!
But their King was begging for death!
Tony and the others were completely stunned, suddenly feeling how fantastical this World was!
"When you invaded the Nine Realms, and those peaceful Planets and people died tragically by your hands, did you spare them when they begged you?"
"If we were the ones who lost today, would you let us go?! You would probably be even more cruel!" Gu Fan said coldly, his tone devoid of any emotion, as if merely stating a fact.
The Dark Elf King's weak expression instantly turned extremely manic and vicious. He roared loudly: "If I had won, all your men would die! And your women would become playthings for us Dark Elves for all eternity! Strength reigns supreme! The strong deserve to possess everything! As for the weak, you deserve to be poor, to die, to suffer! This is the law of the Universe! Hahaha!"
Gu Fan looked at the maniac before him and suddenly felt pity for him.
However, he sneered, "According to your theory, since you are weaker than me, you deserve to die, right? Your Dark Elf race must also be very weak..."
Hearing Gu Fan's chilling words, the Dark Elf King, who had been howling relentlessly, instantly froze!
He stared at Gu Fan with an expression of disbelief, his mouth twitching rapidly.
That's right. He had only considered his own strength, which allowed him to rule and bully the lesser beings at will, but he had forgotten that in front of Big Shots who were even more powerful, he was merely a slightly larger ant... Watching the Dark Elf King finally seem to understand, sinking into an ashen, desperate state.
A satisfied yet cold arc appeared at the corner of Gu Fan's mouth. He finally felt appeased.
However, seeing that the Dark Elf King was still filled with defiance and anger!
Gu Fan finally gave up on the idea of continuing to torment him. Dealing with a brainless guy who only spouted twisted logic was simply giving him too much credit!
Seeing the Dark Elf King's face full of unwillingness! He looked as if he was about to open his mouth and continue speaking.
Gu Fan immediately raised his Tang Blade high, and the energy within his body rapidly surged!
That dazzling and scorching golden light immediately enveloped Gu Fan's entire body! And the exaggerated light gradually became brighter and brighter!
"N-no! Don't! Don't come near me!" the Dark Elf Kingshouted in despair!
Chapter 158: The Golden Light Connecting the Earth and the Universe, Striking the Dark Elf King!
Tony, Rhodes, Natasha, and the others were all seeing Gu Fan like this for the first time, staring in astonishment. However, because the light was too dazzling, everyone had to raise their hands to shield their eyes,
but they still squinted, watching the sacred-looking Gu Fanwith incredible shock.
"Oh my god? Did this guy seriously become a god?" Tonymuttered, dumbfounded.
"A god! Hahaha! As expected of me! I latched onto the leg of a true god right from the start! Hahaha!" Rhodes was frenzied, laughing continuously!
Captain America also looked confused and scared, using his shield to block the intense light and heat.
Natasha, Raven, and Su immediately exchanged surprised glances, unable to believe their man was so powerful, yet feeling deep pride and honor!
The Dark Elf King stared at the exaggerated golden energy, his mouth, which had been ready to spew curses, hung wide open, unable to make a sound.
The Dark Elves feared sunlight and preferred to live in darkness. Gu Fan's immensely vast and scorching golden light thoroughly terrified this defiant Dark Elf King!
But now he had absolutely no recourse... he could only watch helplessly as Gu Fan charged up right in front of him, preparing a sufficient strike!
Golden energy continuously surged onto the narrow Tang Dao.
The entire Tang Dao, with its cold metallic feel, was completely transformed into gold by the massive energy! It was as if it were an energy lightsaber capable of judging all evil... The golden energy light continuously rushed toward the horizon! Without end!
Looking from afar, it seemed as if this dazzling golden light connected the Earth with the endless Star River and the Universe in the sky!
The god holding the lightsaber was also radiating sacred golden light all over! His eyes were as bright as the Sun! People dared not look directly! They were filled with immense awe and dared not offend his Divine Might!
"Strike!" The incredibly shocking sound seemed to come from the heavens! It rushed in all directions! And continuously spread toward the more distant, intense battlefield!
This sound was filled with majesty and a massive, soul-shaking pressure, as if it exploded directly in their minds and hearts! It was unstoppable.
This mighty word "Strike"! It shook everyone on the battlefield!
It was as if a sharp giant blade, following the sound, struck their own bodies! Causing everyone immense pain!
Many of those with weaker strength, or those nearby, clutched their heads with both hands, desperately covering their ears, but they couldn't block the exaggerated pressure.
Immediately, blood flowed from their orifices, and they held their heads in agony!
The entire Asgard battlefield, and even the Worlds inside the several giant circles in the sky, seemed to fall into silence at this moment!
That's right, the entire Nine Realms!
No! The entire World went silent... Everyone looked pained and shocked, staring fearfully at the dazzling golden light emanating from the Royal Palace!
As the Sun set, the gradually darkening sky was illuminated by this dazzling golden light, making it seem like broad daylight!
All-Father Odin, who was far from the Royal Palace in the center of the fiercest battlefield, stood upon enemy corpses piled high like small mountains.
He had originally been slaughtering the enemies before him, practically unrivaled!
He was instantly shocked by the massive energy light!
He looked toward the Royal Palace with an expression of disbelief!
"Whose exaggerated golden energy is this! Thor? No! It's his aura! Huh? Wait! Could this be Gu Fan's aura?" All-Father Odin muttered continuously, frowning.
Because the distance was too great, All-Father Odin could only vaguely sense the strongest few people there, but he couldn't confirm whose exaggerated aura this was.
After all, in his understanding, neither Thor nor Gu Fanpossessed this kind of golden and immensely vast energy; it was even less possible for the weaker others.
All-Father Odin, radiating faint gold and immense majesty, had an eye filled with shock and confusion!
And in the distance, even before the shocking word "Strike" had faded.
The exaggerated golden light that reached the heavens actually moved!
With an incredibly vast and majestic pressure, it chopped—no, it should be described as smashing down! The speed was astonishing!
That's right, Gu Fan felt that the energy accumulation was sufficient, fearing that any more would destroy the entire Royal Palace.
He immediately and brazenly swung the Tang Dao held high in his hand! Chopping fiercely toward the Dark Elf King!
The Dark Elf King, lying on the ground covered in wounds, blood, and filth, raised his head, widening his eyes, and stared blankly at the beautiful and dazzling golden light.
"Oh, my Dark God! This move is truly beautiful..." As the blade light flashed, the Dark Elf King finished the last sentence of his life with an envious expression.
There was no sound, and after the light flashed, it instantly disappeared.
Tony and the others were all filled with terror and confusion.
Even the people on the battlefield waited for a long time. They all thought such immense energy would surely cause an earth-shattering, massive earthquake. But as time passed, silence still reigned... Many Dark Elf Warriors and Asgardian Warriors even started looking at each other, trying to find answers, and many people thought they had seen an illusion... But if the pain was real and intense, had everyone seen an illusion?
Tony and the others felt that the danger had passed, and they tilted their heads, beginning to look around secretly!
The skeptical Tony immediately took off his sunglasses and began to look around continuously.
That's right, the show-off Tony was the most cunning; when Gu Fan activated the golden light, he immediately took out his sunglasses and put them on.
Although the golden light was still dazzling, he squinted and persisted in watching all of Gu Fan's movements!
Tony's hair stood on end, and he instantly thought Gu Fanwas incredibly handsome!
He wished he could go back immediately and forge a similar blade weapon to use for showing off!
Everyone discovered that the Dark Elf King, who had been lying on the ground, had completely vanished.
Just then, a breeze blew by, and the sparse Ash Residue on the ground began to drift everywhere with the wind... Just as Tony and the others watched the drifting dust with shocked expressions, the ground suddenly let out a rumbling tremor.
Then, just as everyone squatted down, preparing for an earthquake, the tremor quickly disappeared... However, everyone was horrified to discover that a massive trench had suddenly appeared before them—five meters wide, seven or eight meters deep, dozens of kilometers long, spanning and cutting across the entire battlefield!
Chapter 159: A World-Shattering Slash, Shaking the Entire Battlefield!
This exaggerated gully seemed to appear out of nowhere! It instantly changed the terrain of the battlefield... Thankfully, the Asgardian warriors and Dark Elf Warriors on both sides of the battle had briefly ceased fighting due to the overwhelming light pillar, all with dumbfounded expressions, looking in the direction where the dazzling light had fallen.
Neither the Dark Elf Warriors nor the Asgardian warriors, nor even the various massive and ferocious monsters brought by the Dark Elf Warriors, continued to fight. They all tucked their tails between their legs, whimpering and running far away! This allowed them to escape this catastrophe... All-Father Odin tightly gripped the Eternal Spear, his knuckles turning white from the excessive force. His piercing lone eye was filled with shock and disbelief!
This sudden sense of threat made the powerful All-Father feel a threat like daggers in his back! And at the same time, he feared this exaggerated power!
Though aged but still majestic, All-Father Odin seemed to have grown even older in that instant.
All-Father Odin knew that he had lived too long, and his body could not sustain much longer, let alone unleash his full power to quickly change the situation on the battlefield. Otherwise, he would not have been entangled with these mere soldiers for so long... Being the closest, Tony, Rhodes, and others were also accidentally injured by Gu Fan's powerful voice and energy, bleeding from their seven orifices, their eardrums shattered, their faces filled with fear and pain.
However, since everyone had injected the Extremis Virus, their bodies immediately turned crimson and their injuries were rapidly repaired... But the shock and pain brought by Gu Fan's soul-shaking'slash' and massive attack were truly real!
Inside the palace room, it was eerily quiet. All of this also made Tony, Rhodes, Natasha, and others realize with shock that the starting point of this gully was precisely where Gu Fan's blade tip had pointed at the ground.
This... was Gu Fan's silent yet dazzling slash!!!
"Bah, talking about burning, killing, and looting so philosophically, what's the use of that? Being a damn bandit makes sense?! I'm truly speechless!" Gu Fancontemptuously glanced at the constantly drifting ashes of the Dark Elf King in the distant sky, snorted coldly, and couldn't help but curse.
"Alas, the old World was still good. Compared to these chaotic Worlds, it was truly much safer," Gu Fan sighed helplessly, and thoughts in his heart inexplicably emerged.
With a 'clack,' Gu Fan decisively sheathed the Tang Blade, whose light had dissipated. However, this time, he didn't show off any fancy blade tricks!
Gu Fan's speed in drawing and sheathing his blade was too fast! Not only the deceased Dark Elf King, but also Tony, Captain America, Natasha, Queen Frigga, and others were all dumbfounded, unable to clearly see Gu Fan's movements... Everyone only felt several golden lights flash, like the energy of a warm sun, illuminating everything!
Then the Dark Elf King was completely destroyed, and then with another flash, the Tang Blade was back in its sheath... Everyone stared at Gu Fan with wide eyes and suspicious expressions, all wondering how Gu Fan's strength had suddenly become so powerful again?
Although he was exceptionally powerful before, this increase seemed a bit too exaggerated!
Indeed, Gu Fan's World-shattering slash had shocked the entire battlefield!
"Ah! You bastard Dark Elf King! Come quickly and die! I am Thor, the mighty Thunder God of Asgard! I won't be easily knocked out by you! That's right! I wasn't knocked out just now! I just couldn't find my way over..."
"I swear by the name of All-Father Odin! You cannot defeat me!" Thor roared with a ferocious expression, covered in bumps and grime.
Then he kept panting heavily, and amidst everyone's dumbfounded expressions, he slowly and laboriously crawled in from outside the broken wall... After standing up, Thor leaned on his knees and asked curiously, looking at his companions, "You, are you all okay? That's great!"
"Oh, right, where's that powerful Dark Elf King? Where is he? Oh, I know! He wouldn't have run away, would he? He must have been scared off by my powerful aura! Hahaha, as expected of me, Thor! Hahaha..." Thor laughed heartily, his face filled with joy.
"Uh, that handsome guy over there, are you talking about the Dark Elf King?" Tony, unable to watch any longer, finally couldn't help but ask, looking at the Iron Simpletonin front of him with pity.
"That's right, he's by your side, all around you, in this room, and in the sky above. He's everywhere! He's omnipresent!" Rhodes also pretended to be mysterious and serious, joining Tony's comedic team to fool the simpleton, and they started to trick him together.
"What! He, he's actually that powerful? What kind of skill is this? I can't even see him? How do I attack him?! I've never heard of the Dark Elf King having such powerful abilities?!" Thor exclaimed in shock, his eyes wide, his mouth agape, and his gaze filled with disbelief and terror.
Queen Frigga's dignified face immediately showed a helpless expression, but she didn't speak. Instead, she covered her forehead in distress, looking utterly devastated... "Gu Fan, you're here! Could it be that even you can't defeat this terrifying and evil fellow?" Thor looked at Gu Fan in shock, feeling his last hope completely vanish... Finally, someone couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then everyone in the room burst into laughter... Thor looked at the silent Gu Fan, then at his mother covering her face, and at Tony and the others laughing with their hands on their stomachs, and instantly became dumbfounded... "Alright, the war isn't over yet. You all help out too, to minimize unnecessary losses." Gu Fan also smiled, gave everyone a reminder, and immediately walked towards the position where the Dark Elf King had been.
In the air there, a massive, dark red energy particle was constantly swirling and drifting. It was like an ownerless object.
That's right, this is the Aether Particle. The Dark Elf Kingwas right, the Aether Particle truly cannot be destroyed.
Of course, it's also possible that my current strength isn't strong enough.
Gu Fan stared at the Aether Particle in front of him with fervent eyes, extremely excited.
"This little stone is finally mine, one down, five more to go!" Gu Fan's lips curved upwards, and he immediately raised his hand and waved. A golden beam of energy swiftly rushed towards the Aether Particle, firmly enveloping them.
Ignoring the curious glances of those around him, Gu Fanimmediately stored the Aether Particle into his system space.
Then, filled with excitement, he immediately flew towards the battlefield!
Chapter 160: A Single Man and a Single Blade Awe the Battlefield and Quell the War!
The war was not yet over, and large numbers of Dark Elf Warriors were still fighting everywhere.
The aftershocks of the war continued to expand, affecting the entire Nine Realms.
However, since the strongest Dark Elf King and Cursed Warrior were both dead, only ordinary soldiers and Fierce Beasts remained.
Given the strength of Tony, Rhodes, and the others, dealing with them was completely unproblematic.
Gu Fan quickly flew into the sky, radiating golden light, holding the brilliantly glowing Tang Blade high in his hand, and loudly announced the Dark Elf King's death, urging the Dark Elf Warriors to surrender immediately and stop sacrificing themselves meaninglessly.
The soldiers on both sides of the battlefield were already stunned by the exaggerated, world-destroying golden light attack.
Seeing the golden energy light again, the vast majority of Dark Elf Warriors immediately threw away all their weapons in fear upon hearing the news, squatting down to surrender.
Even some Asgardian warriors immediately threw down their weapons in fear, squatting where they were with their hands covering their heads.
However, there were also some stubborn fanatics who still didn't believe Gu Fan's words, desperately shouting, "He's lying! The Dark Elf King is invincible!" and immediately continued fighting relentlessly.
But these were minor issues and were quickly and completely eliminated by the Asgardian warriors!
Of course, Gu Fan wasn't idle either; he immediately and decisively took action!
After all, even a small mosquito is still meat! These disobedient Dark Elf Warriors are all score babies!
Soon, the fighting was completely quelled, and All-Father Odin approached Gu Fan, looking exhausted.
He was covered in blood, breathing heavily with his mouth open, and after much hesitation, he asked with curiosity, "Was that golden energy attack just now really emitted by you?"
Gu Fan smiled calmly and nodded: "Yes, I must thank His Majesty the All-Father greatly. The materials you prepared for me were extremely precious—truly good stuff! Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to forge such a powerful Divine Artifact!"
All-Father Odin fixed his gaze, nodded in confirmation, and looked at Gu Fan raising his hand to display the Tang Blade he held, his face full of envy.
"Youth is truly wonderful; you can constantly grow stronger! May I look at your weapon?" All-Father Odinasked Gu Fan, his face hopeful.
Gu Fan did not speak, simply placing the Tang Bladebefore All-Father Odin.
All-Father Odin nodded, picked up the Tang Blade, and examined it closely.
The moment the Tang Blade was in his hand, All-Father Odin's eyes narrowed, and he immediately sensed something was wrong.
A faint golden energy immediately surged from the Tang Blade, as if resisting him.
But All-Father Odin was, after all, the dignified God-King of Asgard! His strength was incomparably mighty!
A faint golden Divine Light Energy also surged from him, which finally stabilized his constantly trembling hand.
"What a fine blade! This Divine Artifact can be called the strongest artifact forged by the Dwarves over countless years!" All-Father Odin exclaimed, his eyes shining with envy.
"However, it hasn't been fitted with Asgardian magicarrays yet; only then will this Divine Artifact become even more powerful and invincible! Don't worry, I will immediately help you add the most powerful magic later!" All-Father Odin said with a smile, returning the Tang Blade to Gu Fan.
All-Father Odin's eyesight was sharp, and he naturally saw the value of this Divine Artifact at a glance, but it also greatly shocked him internally.
The moment he held the weapon, the golden energy continuously resisted him. Although he resisted it with the power of a God-King, he still felt a needle-like stinging pain.
All-Father Odin appeared extraordinarily calm on the surface, but he still immediately returned the Tang Bladeto Gu Fan.
"If this Divine Artifact were combined with Asgardian Magic Array Patterns, its power would probably surpass my Eternal Spear! Moreover, this Divine Artifact has clearly chosen its master. Forget me, probably no one besides Gu Fan can use it!" All-Father Odin thought to himself, his face full of envy.
"I originally planned to trouble you and the Queen when I returned, but I didn't expect the Dark Elf King to come and cause trouble," Gu Fan nodded and said happily.
"Oh, and Your Majesty the All-Father, there are also some of the Dark Elf King's soldiers scattered across the Planets of the Nine Realms. Although their numbers are small, please send troops to maintain peace in the Nine Realms," Gu Fan immediately reminded him.
All-Father Odin immediately nodded, turned his head, called his General, and arranged for people to go throughout the Nine Realms to help quell the chaos.
Since only a handful of enemies remained, Gu Fan couldn't be bothered to chase those few score points; it wasn't worth the trouble.
So, Gu Fan bid farewell to All-Father Odin, who was still organizing his subordinates, cleaning up the battlefield, and guarding the prisoners, immediately found Natasha and the two other women, and returned to his room to rest.
Tony, Rhodes, and even Natasha and the others vented the grievances they had suffered, causing heavy casualties among the Dark Elf Warriors.
Gu Fan didn't interfere with Tony and Rhodes; after all, they had been under life-and-death threat and constantly beaten down, so it was good to let them vent their emotions.
Gu Fan's room was fine, without any damage, except for a few Dark Elf corpses near the doorway that Gu Fan had killed earlier.
Gu Fan casually waved his hand, and Scarlet Fire quickly helped them follow their King, turning them all into ashes.
As Gu Fan gently exhaled, the dust was quickly blown away by a strong gust of wind.
Gu Fan changed out of his black superman battle robe and sprawled out on the bed.
Gu Fan was genuinely tired; he hadn't rested at all during this period.
First, he acquired a Stellar Core. Then he focused on forging, injecting various Superpowers and energies, and even sacrificed a lot of his own flesh and blood, before returning and fighting another battle with a few guys.
The moment he lay down on the bed, he slowly drifted into slumber.
Natasha and the two other women exchanged glances, guessing that Gu Fan must have been utterly exhausted from forging the weapon during this time.
So, the three women closed the doors and windows, immediately stripped off their black superman battle robes, and all burrowed into the warm blankets, snuggling tightly against Gu Fan and falling asleep... There was nothing else for it; the battle had been too shocking, leaving them mentally and physically drained, even though their bodily injuries had completely recovered.
But repeatedly coming close to death had kept the three women's spirits under extreme pressure. They truly needed a secure, good rest to recover.
Gu Fan didn't sleep for long; he woke up a few hours later. He immediately felt full of strength and mentally vigorous!
The sky was completely dark; it was likely the middle of the night, and everything outside was quiet.
Gu Fan closed his eyes and felt the warm and smooth touch in front of and behind him, knowing that Natashaand the others were also resting.
Gu Fan struggled to turn over amidst the arms and Jade Legs, afraid of waking them, only to find that the women immediately pressed tightly against him again, seemingly feeling somewhat afraid.
But how could Gu Fan, who hadn't seen them for a while and was full of energy, possibly restrain himself?
So, immediately bursting with energy, he stretched out his wicked big hand with a smile!
Chapter 161: All Sorts of Unexpected Rewards!
Sensing the movement in their sleep, the women groaned softly, opening their hazy eyes. Seeing Gu Fan, they all instinctively clung closer to him, lacking a sense of security...
Seeing that Natasha and the women were awake, Gu Fanstopped holding back. After all, absence makes the heart grow fonder, so the battle immediately began... In the aftermath of the war, Asgard was quiet and peaceful in the dark night.
Meanwhile, in Gu Fan's room, the temperature gradually grew hot, the air filled with a sensual atmosphere, and the battle entered an intense phase—it was exceptionally fierce!
The next day at noon, Pepper knocked on the door for the second time, wanting to call Natasha and the women for lunch.
Natasha finally came out to open the door after a long wait, her hair messy and wrapped in a blanket.
As soon as Pepper entered the room, she saw the mess inside... The bed had collapsed, several tables and the sofa were shattered, and even the hard, rocky windowsill and several walls were cracked... Smelling the sensual atmosphere in the air, Pepper's pretty face flushed slightly. She rolled her eyes at Gu Fan, who was still lying in bed, and complained dumbfounded, "Are you trying to tear the house down?! It wasn't destroyed by the enemy, but you guys wrecked it instead..."
Hearing Pepper's complaint, Natasha and the two other women's faces all flushed slightly.
The women playfully dragged Pepper along and went to the cloakroom together to change clothes.
Gu Fan ignored Pepper's complaint and closed his eyes, looking at the system prompts in his mind.
The system's voice quickly prompted in Gu Fan's mind: "system mission: Assist Thunder God Thor, protect Jane, safeguard Earth and the Nine Realms, and eliminate Malekith, the Dark Elf King! Mission successfully completed! Hidden Special Mission 1: Save the Nine Realms and become the Protector God of the Nine Realms. Hidden Mission 2: Obtain the Aether Particle. Hidden Mission 3: Eliminate the Cursed Warrior." Rewards calculating! Please wait... System Reward 1: Reward of 2,000 Tier Advancement Points. Bonus of 2,500 points for over-completing Hidden Mission 1. You can advance to Tier Four upon reaching 10,000 points. Current Tier Points: 14,092 points. Eligible for advancing tiers!"
"System Reward 2: Due to the over-completion of two hidden missions, all of the Host's Superpowers are increased by 189 points. Superman Physique increased by 189 points, Energy Absorption increased by 189 points, Ability Enhancement increased by 189 points, Super Flightincreased by 189 points, Super X-Ray Vision increased by 189 points, Super Hearing increased by 189 points, Super Smell increased by 189 points, Super Speed increased by 189 points, Super Strength increased by 189 points, Super Defense (Steel Body) increased by 189 points, Super Self-Healing increased by 189 points, Chest Cannon increased by 189 points, Super Laser Eye increased by 189 points, Energy Absorption increased by 189 points, Ability Enhancement increased by 189 points, Super..."
"System Reward 3: Reward of 8,000 mall points. Bonus reward of 19,000 points for over-completing hidden missions. Current mall points: 89,830 points."
"Yo-ho, not bad, not bad! The Dark Elf King truly deserves to be a powerhouse capable of confronting the All-Father Odin's father and even harboring the ambition to rule the Nine Realms! These reward points are quite generous! Hehehe... I hope the rest of the rewards are just as bountiful!" Gu Fan muttered to himself, in high spirits and full of expectation.
"System Reward 4: Rewards the Host with one Gold Treasure Chest!"
"System Reward 5: Rewards the Host with the ability to control the Reality Stone, which is the Aether Particle."
"System Reward 6: Rewards the Host by enhancing their talent and ability to learn and use Dark Magic."
"System Reward 7: Rewards the Host with one Mall Points Hundredfold Multiplier Card."
"System Reward 8: Rewards the Host with one fragment of the heart of the universe."
"System Reward 9: Rewards the Host with the ability to freely maintain rational control for up to 30 minutes daily when activating Hulk Rage Mode! However, exceeding this time will still result in a state of frenzy. Furthermore, this ability will improve as the Host's strength increases, until the Host can completely avoid being affected by anger when activating Rage Mode."
"Currently, the Host's system storage space contains one Customized Free Card, one Gold Treasure Chest, five Silver Treasure Chests, three Black Superman Suits, two Character Transport Cards, one Iron Man Armor, four fragments of the heart of the universe, one Mall Points Tenfold Multiplier Card, and one Mall Points Hundredfold Multiplier Card."
While continuously studying the system's rewards, Gu Fanfelt huge warm currents emanating from within his body, causing his body to rapidly heat up.
"Phew, not bad, not bad! The outwardly cold but inwardly passionate Dark Elf King truly deserves to be a big Boss; the rewards are even more impressive! Hehehe..." Gu Fan's eyes were full of delight; he raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but exhale a breath of excitement.
"Huh? Wait a minute! Damn you, dog system! How come the mall points and Tier Advancement Points you rewarded me with this time are so high?! This is almost more than what I got from the previous two missions combined?! You didn't miscalculate, did you?" Gu Fan took a deep breath and asked, his face full of astonishment.
"Host, please rest assured, this system has made no errors! The stronger the enemy, and the greater the impact they have on the World, the more rewards the Host will receive upon victory!" The system immediately replied seriously.
"Hmm, indeed, the Dark Elf King is different from those previous guys! What were those before? Just useless trash. Even Loki, who wanted to become the God-King, only had the ambition to rule Earth. He's really a little weakling with no power and no vision..." Gu Fan snorted, his face full of contempt and disdain.
Gu Fan genuinely wasn't too fond of this future God of Stories in the Marvel Universe right now.
After all, Loki was always jumping around, screwing over his own people too many times, and his endings were always quite miserable, yet he never gained any benefit himself.
For such an eccentric villain, Gu Fan didn't know how to evaluate him for a moment.
Should he praise him for being inspiring? For growing stronger with every setback and never admitting defeat?
Or should he complain that his scope was too small, his vision insufficient, his strength weak, that he screwed over his own family, pulled constant ridiculous stunts, and showed off outrageously, but still got beaten up a lot?
Overall, though, he was still a very interesting fellow.
Although he ultimately sacrificed himself to allow the infinite Parallel Universes of the Marvel Universe to exist without being destroyed and rebooted due to overload, he was still highly admirable!
However, right now, he was indeed looked down upon.
"The Dark Elf King immediately used the Aether Particle to try and rule the Nine Realms! He went head-to-head against All-Father Odin's father, the Old God-King Bor! He wanted the Nine Realms to fall into Eternal Darkness and completely transform the Nine Realms into his own image and likeness."
"Look at this great Super Villain's awareness and ambition—truly excellent! If you're going to be a villain, shouldn't you go big? You must have this grand vision! You can't be petty! Hehehe..." Gu Fan laughed meaningfully, full of admiration while simultaneously criticizing his previous, insignificant defeated opponents.
Gu Fan stared intently at one of the system's rewarded items, which was constantly flashing with dazzling golden light in his mind.
Chapter 162: Golden Treasure Chest, Reality Stone, Hulk Rage Mode! The rewards are so awesome!
"Golden Treasure Chest! Whoa? This dog system finally upgraded my rewards! A Golden Treasure Chest for the first time! Damn! I wonder what good stuff this thing can open!" Gu Fan's eyes lit up, he rubbed his hands excitedly, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva again.
He took a look, but didn't open it directly; instead, he curiously started to study the other rewards.
"This hundredfold mall points card is also great! I complained about not having enough points last time, and the tenfold points card really wasn't very effective. This time, stacking the two is perfect! The more the better! Well done! Worthy of praise! dog system! Just like that, I'm instantly rich! Hahaha! Not bad, not bad! I like this reward! It's a pity it's not a thousandfold or ten-thousandfold upgrade card..." Gu Fan's eyes shone, and he immediately became excited!
"heart of the universe shard, I have four now... How many more do I need? What exactly is the use of this piece of junk?" Gu Fan frowned and complained helplessly.
However, Gu Fan had complained about this item many times already, and the system only said that the Hostwould know once the shards were collected, refusing to reveal any more information. In the end, Gu Fan couldn't be bothered to argue anymore. Let it be for now...
"This ability to control the Reality Stone, also known as the Aether Particle? This reward is interesting!" Gu Fancouldn't help but sit up, his eyes instantly narrowing!
The soft, silky blanket slid down as Gu Fan sat up, revealing his sturdy and perfect upper body!
Gu Fan's current body had undergone countless enhancements, and his physical fitness was already incomparably powerful! Lifting a plane to fly was a breeze.
His muscular physique was quite perfect! But it wasn't as grossly exaggerated as some muscle-bound men, which made people feel uncomfortable, scared, or uncoordinated.
Instead, his muscles were sturdy and full, his limbs were balanced, and he possessed a perfect, balanced development of all attributes, including speed, strength, explosive power, endurance, and defense. His overall physique was as perfect as a work of art!
This perfect body often made Natasha and the two other women unable to resist drooling over it!
Yes, they really couldn't keep their hands off it...
And then they would drool...
Gu Fan raised his hand to pinch his chin, thinking constantly: "The Dark Elf King had possessed the Aether Particle for many years, so he could be said to be the most familiar with how to manipulate the Aether Particle. This is far stronger than even All-Father Odin!"
"This reward means... I can use this stone at will?! This is the Reality Stone! It has the ability to change reality, create reality, and even create something out of nothing! This, this..." Gu Fan's eyes widened, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became!
"Isn't this just a wishing stone! Damn! I'm rich! Damn! Hahaha!"
Gu Fan's mind was almost overheating with excitement right now! He was rapidly thinking about all the wishes from his previous life and this life!
"Money? Power? Beautiful women? Superpower? Good food, good drinks? A good place to live? Immortality? Eternal youth? Uh..." Gu Fan frowned, getting more annoyed the more he thought about it!
"Damn it! I've already fulfilled all these wishes! Suddenly, this stone seems a bit useless!" Gu Fan looked at his own body speechlessly, sighed helplessly, and then fell silent.
"Damn it, having everything isn't necessarily a good thing either. Forget it, I'll talk about it later. At least having it is better than not having it..." Gu Fan couldn't help but curse for a while.
Then he waved his hand, and a golden energy sphere immediately appeared, containing the imprisoned Aether Particle.
Gu Fan withdrew his golden energy and reached out to manipulate it.
The dark red Aether Particle actually gathered on Gu Fan's arm, flowing continuously like a flow of Water, extremely obedient.
It seemed that as long as Gu Fan had a thought, it would immediately fulfill his wish.
"Not bad, this really feels obedient. I'm afraid even Thanoswouldn't know this method of control. After all, he only relied on the artifact glove crafted by the Dwarves to forcibly use the power of the stones." Gu Fan nodded with satisfaction and continued to think.
Gu Fan opened his palm, and the Aether Particle quickly gathered together, followed by a forceful clench of his palm!
Countless tiny particles were quickly compressed and gathered.
When Gu Fan opened his hand again, the Aether Particlehad completely disappeared, and a beautiful red stone had appeared in his palm.
This was the Reality Stone!
Gu Fan played with it curiously for a while, feeling that he could mobilize it at will, and could still change reality according to his own wishes!
"Sigh, this little thing can't be used indiscriminately. It's somewhat similar to the Scarlet Witch Wanda's Chaos magic; both can change the real World, and their power is too great. As a good person, I still have the responsibility and obligation to collect the other stones as well! To save them from destroying the safety and balance of the Universe because they are too powerful!"
"After all, they will be safer when kept with me, hehehe..." Gu Fan had a cunning smile on his face, his little schemes clicking away.
"By the way, speaking of changing reality, the lovely little Wanda will appear soon. This time, I can't let that robot take the initiative! By the way, I should save her unlucky brother, Quicksilver."
"After all, I really like the young and vibrant Olsen! That exaggerated, fair, and proud chest! Perfect!" Gu Fancouldn't help but squint his eyes, swallowing his saliva in anticipation.
No choice, as a man, one must have some little hobbies! Otherwise, how boring would this life be?
After all, Gu Fan didn't have other hobbies, but he felt that this current hobby was perfect!
Gu Fan played with the Reality Stone for a while, then put it back into the system space and continued to study the system's mission rewards.
"By the way, did the system give me a reward related to Dark Magic?"
"Hmm, the Dark Elves have high magical talent. Wouldn't learning Dark Magic be even more like cheating in the future! Awesome! This is another means of self-preservation!" Gu Fan couldn't help but nod excitedly.
"Finally, this must be from the Cursed Warrior, right? Being able to freely control one's sanity for thirty minutes while in Hulk Rage Mode?" Gu Fan's eyes widened, and with a straight, forceful motion, he stood up directly.
"Hahaha! Awesome! I never dared to use that Hulk Rage Mode ability because I was afraid of losing my sanity. This time I can let loose and go all out! Which guy dares to cause trouble! I'll hammer him to death!"
"Although my physical strength hasn't reached the Heavenly Father Level yet, after Hulk Rage Mode, all my abilities and strength will double, so that should be just about enough. Plus my artifact Tang Dao! I'm invincible! Hahaha... Tiny Thanos? Handled!" Gu Fan clenched his fists and laughed loudly, his blood surging instantly! He felt full of strength! Hard and unyielding! A giant pillar supporting the sky!
Just at this moment, hearing Gu Fan's laughter, Pepperfollowed Natasha and the two other women out of the changing room with curious faces.
The women walked in and looked up to see Gu Fan, who was completely naked, with bulging muscles...
Chapter 163: Starting Tier Advancement to Tier Four, Shaking All of Asgard in the Night!
The women were instantly dumbfounded.
Natasha and the two other women were naturally used to it, but there was an outsider present!
Wasn't their man at a disadvantage?!
Pepper was genuinely shocked, her face slack with astonishment. It took her a few seconds to react before she quickly covered her flushed face and ran out in embarrassment.
"You bastard, why aren't you wearing clothes?" she asked indignantly, hands on her hips and pouting, looking cute and playful, just like a barbie doll throwing a tantrum.
Seeing that Diana and Raven also had unfriendly expressions, Gu Fan smirked wickedly, "Hehehe, come on, my darlings!"
Amidst the surprised looks and gasps of the three women, Gu Fan charged over again... The clothes and makeup that Natasha and the two other women had just painstakingly put on were quickly turned into "battle-damaged" versions by Gu Fan's actions... The temperature inside the room, which had just cooled down, instantly became scorching hot again... Pepper, completely flushed, ran back to her own room.
Looking at Tony, who was happily drinking wine and studying his Armor, she felt utterly helpless.
She fiercely pinched Tony's soft waist several times. Only after Tony winced and looked utterly bewildered did she let out a cold snort and leave to eat lunch.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was evening, and the sky had long since turned completely dark.
Because Gu Fan was overly excited, he didn't continue studying the rewards but instead played around for a long time.
Looking at Natasha and the two other women sleeping soundly beside him, Gu Fan's lips curled up wildly.
Closing his eyes again, he asked the dog system, "dog system, how many Enhancement Points did I get for eliminating the enemies this time?"
Immediately, Gu Fan saw the system broadcast: "Superman Physique increased by 9.6 points, God of War Body increased by 8.4, Absorption or Release of Any Form of Energy increased by 8.6, Energy Absorption increased by 9.2 points, Ability Enhancement increased by 8.7 points, Super Flight increased by 8.6 points, Super X-Ray Visionincreased by 79.7 points, Super Hearing increased by 8.2 points, Super Smell increased by 9.5 points, Super Speedincreased by 9.9 points, Super Strength increased by 8.2 points, Super Defense Steel Body increased by 8.8 points, Ability Enhancement 8.6 points, Super..."
Feeling his slightly fatigued body gradually heating up, not only was his stamina recovering more dramatically and quickly, but his various Superpowers and strength were also continuously increasing.
Gu Fan couldn't help but exhale a puff of hot air in satisfaction: "Awesome! This feeling of enhancement! It's more satisfying than chugging a glass of ice-cold coke in the middle of summer! Hahaha!"
"Oh, right, system. I've been getting these Enhancement Points for so long, but without a comparison, how much exactly have I improved? What's the real difference?" Gu Fan tilted his head and asked curiously.
"After detailed system calculation, the Host's current strength after Enhancement Points will be 230% of the Host's unenhanced strength!" The system immediately calculated and replied seriously.
"Huh? I've accumulated that much already! I can crush two versions of myself without Enhancement Points? I haven't felt that big of an increase or change!" Gu Fan's eyes widened, looking completely incredulous.
The system immediately explained: "Not just two! Ten is possible. When it comes to strength, a numerical increase isn't a simple one plus one equals two! The stronger one is, the more easily even a slight increase allows them to crush exponentially more weak opponents! Quantity cannot easily bridge the chasm of such a huge gap!"
"After all, the stronger you are, the harder it is to improve! And these Enhancement Points have been continuously and subtly accumulating for the Host, not just from the large rewards provided by system missions."
"Every time the Host trains with companions during the day, and with female companions at night, Enhancement Points are added. Although the amount added each time is small, the number of people is large, and the Host has been diligent for many years, so the total amount is naturally considerable!" The system analyzed seriously.
"Hmm, that makes sense. After all, I am a hardworking little bee! I love going home to play in the hive the most... Hehehe..." Gu Fan's lips curved up wildly, revealing a satisfied smile.
"Furthermore, the Host's various Superpowers combine very well, allowing for the absorption of all energy in the Universe. You are continuously strengthening yourself every day. That is why the difference in the Host's strength is so exaggerated!" The system immediately added!
"Yes, indeed. I feel that not only when I am basking in the Sun, but even when I am sleeping in the dark, my body is absorbing all sorts of energy that I don't even know what it is, continuously strengthening myself."
"When I have time, I really need to learn from Superman, absorb more energy! Strengthen myself! I should wander around the Sun more often, or go absorb some energy at a Nuclear Power Plant!" Gu Fan nodded in satisfaction, deep in thought.
"Oh right, dog system, I finally have enough Tier Advancement Points! That wasn't easy! I can start advancing tiers! Come on! Give me the points! Advance me to Tier Four!" Gu Fan shouted excitedly at the system.
The system immediately replied: "The Host currently possesses 14,092 Tier Advancement Points! advancing tiers will now begin, consuming 10,000 Tier Advancement Points, leaving 4,092 Tier Advancement Points remaining. Please proceed to an unoccupied, spacious, and safe location to advance tiers."
Gu Fan didn't understand what the system meant, but he still pulled himself out of the jungle of jade arms and thighs... Then he immediately put on the superman battle robe, accelerated, and suddenly flew to a spacious battlefield where the two sides had fought the day before yesterday.
The battlefield had long since been cleaned up, and all the buildings had been torn down.
There were no corpses or weapons on the ground, but there were still plenty of damaged buildings and patches of black, dried blood!
Most likely, the building damage was too extensive to warrant repair, and it was simpler to tear them down and rebuild.
The moment Gu Fan landed, a burst of scorching, dazzling golden light gradually emanated from his body, far more intense than when he advanced to Tier Three!
Moreover, the light grew progressively stronger! The temperature was also rising rapidly!
In this ordinary dark night in Asgard, Gu Fan seemed on the verge of becoming a small Sun, impossible to face or look at directly.
No, he was the Sun!
In the originally pitch-black night, Gu Fan transformed from a massive light bulb into a Sun appearing over the land of Asgard!
The scorching light began continuously illuminating all of Asgard and the farther reaches of the Universe!
Many people were startled awake by the bright light, rubbing their eyes as they got up, thinking it was morning. But they wondered why it felt like they hadn't slept for long before dawn broke?
People who were drinking and having fun all night, those on duty, guards, and workers, all looked completely bewildered.
Not only was the time wrong—since it was still the middle of the night—but the dazzling light was shining forth from the battlefield!
The people of Asgard looked around curiously, talking with their compatriots, unsure of what was happening before their eyes.
All-Father Odin and Queen Frigga naturally woke up as well. Fearing it might be an enemy trick, they immediately arranged for their warriors to investigate the source of the light and determine the cause.
Chapter 164: A Violent and Excruciating Breakthrough! Divine Might Resounds Throughout the Nine Realms!
Meanwhile, Gu Fan, who was at the center of it all, slowly floated up with his eyes closed.
In fact, Gu Fan wasn't using any power; he was currently unable to move, instead being lifted by the surging energy of the golden light surrounding his body!
His skin, muscles, bones, nerves, blood, cells, and all his Superpowers—everything in Gu Fan's body was rapidly becoming more solid, resilient, and reinforced!
As Gu Fan transformed, his bones and flesh continuously crackled.
It was as if they were constantly being damaged and torn apart, only to be rapidly reorganized and upgraded.
Gu Fan could clearly feel his body becoming brighter and gradually slipping out of control... It was as if every cell in his body was trying to surpass its physical limitations and transform into a purer, higher-level Energy Body!
As every cell in his body underwent this violent transformation, the pain made Gu Fan grit his teeth and constantly roar, a sound filled with painful growls yet also brimming with repressed power!
It was like a fierce Beast hidden in a dark abyss, ready to devour anyone at any moment—incredibly powerful yet strangely quiet and profound. It made people tremble with fear! Their hair stood on end!
As the cells gradually transformed, Gu Fan's originally red blood cells were constantly infused with golden cells.
Not only his blood, but also his internal organs, muscles, and skin gradually began to contain golden cells.
The most obvious change was in Gu Fan's eyes; his originally profound black pupils were now continuously flickering with golden light!
It was as if golden Water was constantly flowing within a deep black pool!
It was a mysterious and captivating sight!
Endless power gushed forth continuously from Gu Fan's body! Like a savage Beast! Tireless and terrifying!
Although every cell in his body was undergoing such a violent transformation, Gu Fan was somewhat experienced from previous similar events, but he still gritted his teeth and continuously roared softly in pain.
Not only his blood, but every part of Gu Fan's body—including his internal organs, muscles, and skin—gradually began to contain golden cells, as if they had been stained with a layer of golden pigment.
From a distance, Gu Fan appeared completely divine.
As Gu Fan, the source of light, grew brighter, more and more people were quickly drawn to the ruined battlefield.
Tony, Rhodes, and even Natasha and the others were all awakened by the surrounding noise and came out to witness the spectacle.
After hearing the report and confirming that the light source posed no immediate danger, All-Father Odin and Queen Frigga still arrived at the ruined battlefield with wary expressions.
Everyone present was filled with curiosity and vigilance, afraid that this might be some hidden trick or contingency plan left by the enemy.
Or perhaps a new enemy suddenly emerging from somewhere.
Others continuously speculated that this golden energy light was most likely the War God Gu Fan, who had defeated all enemies and dominated the entire battlefield two days prior!
That's right, because a few days ago, Gu Fan had successively eliminated the Dark Elf King and the Cursed Warrior, and had even subdued the entire battlefield with his immensely powerful strength!
That exaggerated display of power significantly reduced the losses across the Nine Realms.
Over the past few days, the warriors of Asgard have all immensely admired Gu Fan's strength and power.
Many warriors were saying that Gu Fan was Asgard's newly promoted War God! The invincible War God!
And Gu Fan's dazzling golden energy light represented victory and hope! Even more so, it represented invincibility!
Legends and myths about Gu Fan, the invincible War God, the Sun God, and others, gradually spread even to other Planets in the Nine Realms outside of Asgard!
The high-ranking officials on other Planets in the Nine Realms paid close attention to Asgard, the Divine Realm that ruled the Nine Realms, and they all tried every means possible to gather information.
Following Gu Fan's suggestion, All-Father Odindispatched many more warriors after the battle to help quell rebellions and eliminate the remaining remnants of the Dark Elf King's forces across the Nine Realms.
Information regarding Gu Fan's exaggerated combat power and other details was proudly boasted by these Aesirwarriors.
This caused the people of the various races across the Nine Realms who heard the news to gasp in astonishment! They were filled with admiration!
After all, whether it was the Aesir of the Divine Realm or other races, they were all extremely martial! The strong could obtain everything!
And Gu Fan happened to be the most dazzling and youngest powerhouse!
Naturally, Gu Fan, the War God in question, knew nothing about any of this.
After all, following the great battle, he had spent two consecutive days and nights busy sleeping together... he hadn't even left the room... For a time, All-Father Odineven thought he was suffering from exhaustion.
Only after inquiring with Tony and the others did he learn that this was Gu Fan's standard practice—the fellow was simply lustful... This left All-Father Odin with a dark expression, and after reacting awkwardly for a long time, he immediately turned and left... On other Planets in the Nine Realms, high-ranking personnel heard more detailed and truthful news about Gu Fan. Learning of the overwhelming War God power Gu Fan used to eliminate the Dark Elf King made them even more fearful of Asgard's strength.
Those who harbored rebellious sentiments also obediently hid themselves, no longer daring to entertain thoughts of ruling Planets, or even overthrowing the Aesir and dominating the Nine Realms.
After all, according to the legends, even someone as powerful as the Dark Elf King met such a miserable end.
However, the common people at the bottom layers of all the Realms were ecstatic, as having such a powerful War God protecting the Nine Realms alongside Asgard meant the Nine Realms would be much safer.
After all, there were quite a few racial powers in the Nine Realms looking to cause trouble, but they had all been defeated and intimidated by Asgard in the past, which is why they were currently behaving.
If they were to discover that the Asgardian God Race, the supreme rulers of Asgard, had weakened, these fellows would no longer be so obedient.
Therefore, the common people across the Nine Realmscould live safer and more secure lives.
Over the past few days, some people even carved statues based on the rumored appearance of Gu Fan and placed them in their homes for worship, seeking protection and peace.
All-Father Odin, standing at the front of the crowd, frowned as he sensed the energy, and his single eye revealed an expression of utter disbelief!
Queen Frigga, who had been by her husband's side for millennia, naturally understood his emotions.
She immediately stepped forward, linking arms with All-Father Odin, and asked curiously, "What is it? Is something wrong?"
Thor, who had just squeezed in with various bruises and swelling still visible on his face, and everyone else who heard the voice, looked at All-Father Odin with curiosity.
Odin let out a seemingly helpless sigh and murmured softly, "The younger generation is truly formidable, truly formidable! The person emitting that golden energy light is Gu Fan, just as some of you suspected."
Chapter 165: Initially Advancing to the God-King Level, Undying and Immortal, Existing Forever!
Whoosh. The people around them first fell into an eerie silence, and then they immediately broke out into intense discussions in small groups.
Some believed, some admired, and some were astonished. But more than anything, they were curious about Gu Fan.
Everyone was very curious about what Gu Fan was doing, suddenly appearing on this ruined battlefield late at night. Was he testing a new move? Or was there another reason?
"Father King, what is Gu Fan doing? He can't sleep because he has nothing to do, so he runs out here to be a light bulb and wake us all up..." Thor yawned and complained while shielding his eyes from the intense light, standing crookedly nearby.
Natasha and the two other women also looked somewhat haggard, having not rested well due to the numerous major battles.
However, they all forced themselves to cheer up and looked at All-Father Odin with worried expressions, their hearts filled with concern for their man, Gu Fan.
As Gu Fan's strength became outrageously powerful, the women understood his current state less and less.
Although they had asked Gu Fan, he only half-understood it himself, and after he finished explaining, the women were even more confused. There was nothing they could do but hope that everything would be safe for Gu Fan!
He looked at Gu Fan, whose light was growing stronger in the sky, and then turned back to look at his Iron Simpleton, his Brilliant biological son, whom he had painstakingly nurtured for thousands of years, yet who was still covered in bumps and bruises, swollen like a pig's head.
All-Father Odin, his face full of anger and unwillingness, held his breath and ground his teeth for a long time, making a grating sound!
Finally, he let out a helpless sigh and slowly said, "Gu Fanis likely breaking through the limits of his strength. His body is undergoing a transformation into a higher level of energy."
"He probably came here alone because he was afraid the aftershocks would damage the houses. But I doubt he realized that this breakthrough would have such an exaggerated impact..."
"What? Breaking through limits? Physical energy transformation? Is that real? Is he going to break through the racial limitations of his weak Human race and become an even more powerful existence?" Thor immediately perked up.
He tried hard to open his swollen eyes, which were narrowed to slits, and shouted with his mouth wide open, his face full of disbelief.
Sensing the shocked, curious, and confused expressions on everyone around him, All-Father Odin slowly sighed and offered no further explanation.
Instead, he looked enviously at Gu Fan, who was acting as a human light source, his expression serious and solemn.
A Brilliant light shone, and Gu Fan felt his entire body, inside and out, turning golden, constantly emitting light and heat!
This golden energy was different from the energy he possessed when he had previously transformed into the Sun.
This golden energy light was filled with divine pressure! It was a more advanced and powerful existence than transforming into the Sun! It was also stronger than Gu Fan's previous dark red energy!
However, it was somewhat similar to the energy Gu Fanpossessed when holding the Tang Dao.
It was filled with unparalleled divine pressure and exaggerated destructive power!
Causing those who saw it to involuntarily feel endless fear and reverence in their hearts!
Gu Fan thought carefully and recalled that he had only seen and felt similar Divine Power on All-Father Odinwhen the All-Father Odin exerted his massive Divine Power!
Even the current Iron Simpleton Thor, exerting his full power, did not produce this fearful sensation.
After all, the special Divine Power of the Aesir God-Kings is passed down through generations! Ordinary Aesir do not possess the exaggerated golden Divine Power of All-Father Odin.
Clearly, the current Thor has not yet inherited these.
And this is the fundamental reason why Loki can never become the God-King of Asgard.
The pain gradually intensified, and Gu Fan couldn't help but let out a painful roar!
The dazzling golden light shone so brightly that All-Father Odin and the others dared not look directly at it, having to shield their eyes and avoid the glare.
However, this golden light quickly traversed the endless Universe, dispelled the surrounding boundless dark Universe, and even illuminated the other Planets within the Nine Realms!
Whether it was day or night on the other Planets, people looked up at the sky curiously, watching the golden light that filled the heavens, finding it incredibly wondrous and magical!
The half of the Earth that was in darkness was also illuminated by this golden light, causing people to feel curious, shocked, and terrified.
After all, the Sun was not overhead; it should have been on the other side of the Earth.
Scientists used various instruments for detection and research, unsure of what was happening.
They could only detect that the energy of this golden light was many times stronger than the energy of the Sun!
But they had no idea where this exaggerated golden energy came from, how it was used, or where it went... This stunned numerous authoritative scientists globally, who looked at the data, doubted science, doubted life itself, and then exclaimed, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Then, a group of bald scientific experts could only stare blankly at the magnificent golden light in the sky.
However, nothing happened to the Nine Realms, but in the days that followed, this day was recorded by the people of Earth and the Nine Realms. Although the meaning varied slightly, it was generally referred to as The Day the Divine Light Shone Upon the World!
After a long time, Gu Fan felt that his advancement seemed to have hit a bottleneck, and only then did the light begin to gradually weaken and disappear.
Only then did Gu Fan slowly awaken from the dual experience of endless pain and profound comfort, regaining control over his body.
Feeling himself floating in mid-air, Gu Fan immediately stabilized his posture and examined the faint golden light covering and radiating from his body.
His entire body exuded a soul-shaking aura and pressure, like that of a true deity!
"This exaggerated energy! This advancement was truly amazing!! This feeling of becoming completely stronger, starting from the depths of my soul and the foundation of my body! It's absolutely wonderful! It's too addictive! Hehehe...!"
Gu Fan clenched his fist and carefully sensed his enhanced body. A mix of unfamiliarity and familiarity meant he would need some time to adapt.
However, upon closer inspection, Gu Fan noticed that his body had returned to its original appearance, rather than the completely golden state it had been in during the advancement.
However, from large parts like organs, muscles, skin, and bones, down to every single cell, a portion had turned golden, continuously emitting even more powerful golden energy and light!
It seemed to be continuously and slowly altering the other normal cells.
"dog system, what's going on? Why does this advancement look like a failure?" Gu Fan asked with a frown and a displeased tone.
"The advancement and tier-up were a perfect success! Congratulations, Host, on perfectly advancing tiers to become a Tier Four powerhouse! Please rest assured!" the System immediately announced.
"Then what's going on with my body? Did you turn me into a hybrid? Why did the physical advancement only change this small amount?" Gu Fan stared blankly at his red blood vessels, which contained golden blood flowing mixed within.
"Advancing from Tier Three to Tier Four, Host has ascended to the Divine Domain! Your physical body will gradually change and become a Divine Body! Similar to the God-Kings of Asgard, your strength will not only be extremely powerful, but it can also be passed down through generations, and your descendants will inherit the Host's Divine Body!"
"However, the energy required to completely transform into a Divine Body is immense! It requires the Host to advance tiers multiple times later, gradually changing until the entire body is fully energy-based! Undying and Immortal, Existing Forever! Complete recovery is possible as long as a trace of energy exists!" the System explained seriously.
