Chapter 0299: The Helper Brought by the Yellow Dragon?!

Mist shrouded the area.

Over six thousand god-tier warriors from Ice Jade Peak continued to advance toward Black Iron Peak, their mighty presence dispersing the mist within tens of thousands of miles around them.

Forward without pause!

“Great Leader, if we manage to break through the defenses of Black Iron Peak’s six peaks, shall we wipe them all out?” asked Phini, a mid-tier god, cautiously along the way.

“Traitors shall die!” Hebrew said coldly, his voice filled with endless murderous intent. “I will personally kill that Yellow Dragon in front of them, making them regret their decision! I’ll also ensure that everyone in the Giant Dragon Mountains knows what happens to those who betray me, Hebrew!”

A murderous aura, tangible as solid matter, surrounded Hebrew, with stormy winds gathering in the air.

Phini and the others felt their hearts tighten and praised the leader’s wisdom.

Hebrew nodded.

After a while, the group passed a mountain a thousand feet high. Hebrew waved his hands, ordering them to stop and rest for a while before continuing.

Phini and the others followed Hebrew down.

“Great Leader, it’s only two or three days’ journey from here to Black Iron Peak. In two or three days, it will be the day the Yellow Dragon, Fergil, and the others die!” Phini said with a smile.

“Haha, excellent! It’s truly exciting!” Another mid-tier god laughed loudly.

The other mid-tier gods also burst into laughter.

Their laughter relaxed the tense atmosphere of the marching army.

Hebrew also nodded with a smile.

But just then, suddenly, a dark blue sword appeared out of thin air in the sky. Soon, thousands of sword beams covered hundreds of miles around, crashing down on Ice Jade Peak’s army.

Hebrew was the first to react. In shock and anger, he soared into the air, a top-tier divine weapon—a small green sword—appearing in his hand as he swung it.

Green light spread out like mushrooms in the sky, multiplying and layering up to block those thousands of sword beams.

It was the “procreation” trait of the law of life!

After that strike, Hebrew roared, “Retreat!”

Yet his roar came too late. His attack only blocked some of the sword beams, while the rest struck down before the god-tier warriors of Ice Jade Peak could react.

As brilliant light filled the air, screams echoed everywhere.

Even Phini and his six companions were hit by the sword beams.

But since their strength was far greater than that of the lower-tier gods, they quickly reacted, unleashing their divine essences to attack simultaneously. At the same time, mid-tier defensive divine weapons appeared on their bodies.

Hebrew roared and flew above the dark blue sword, swinging his blade. A green glow flashed—unlike before, this time the green light carried an aura akin to death.
It was the characteristic of the life rule “annihilation”!
He intended to destroy that dark blue sword.
To his surprise, when the green light struck the sword, although it pierced through its dark blue surface glow, there was no damage at all. Instead, the sword emitted an even brighter light.
“What is this?!” Hebrew was shocked.
With his strength and a strike from his top-tier divine artifact, even ordinary top-tier divine artifacts would be damaged.
As he was stunned, the dark blue sword vanished into a streak of dark blue light right before his eyes.
“It’s gone?!” Not only Hebrew but also Fini and the others were stunned.
While they were in shock, Fini heard a scream beside him. Turning in horror, he saw Edgar, one of the mid-tier gods, clutching his neck in disbelief before collapsing.
“Dead?!” Everyone stared in disbelief at Edgar’s motionless body.
“Edgar!” After a while, Goda, another mid-tier god from the Ice Jade Peak, rushed over and cried out, holding Edgar’s body.
Although the two hadn’t entered the Netherworld from the same mortal realm, they had known each other for millions of years since entering as lower-tier gods. Later, both rose to mid-tier god status and joined Hebrew.
However, the others ignored Goda’s cries and scanned the surroundings nervously and warily.
After killing Edgar, the dark blue sword disappeared and never reappeared.
Hebrew scanned the surrounding tens of thousands of miles with a dark expression and roared, “Who is it? Show yourself, leader!” Not only Edgar had died—over 200 lower-tier gods had also perished. What angered Hebrew even more was that among those 200 lower-tier gods, about a hundred were Jade Guards!
Yet he couldn’t even see what the enemy looked like!
“Come out! Show yourself!”
Hebrew’s roar echoed through the mountains for tens of thousands of miles. It scared some birds and beasts, but aside from that, only the wind answered him.
The people at the Ice Jade Peak huddled together, terrified.
After a while, there was still only the sound of the wind.
“Great Leader,” Fini said softly after a long time, approaching Hebrew from behind.
Hebrew’s voice was deep. “What is it?”
“Could this person be the helper summoned by the Yellow Dragon?!” Fini voiced his suspicion.

Huang Long’s hired help?! Everyone on Bingyu Peak was shocked, but it made sense—only that Huang Long would dare to intercept Bingyu Peak’s army halfway. After a moment of surprise, Hebrew frowned. What worried him most was whether Huang Long had any backing. Although Huang Long had said he wasn’t from the Luning family, that didn’t mean he had no support. If that were the case, it would indeed be a huge problem. From the attack by that mysterious strongman earlier, it seemed he wasn’t a match, which was why he hid his attacks. Yet the method of attack was so bizarre—even he couldn’t see how that dark blue sword disappeared out of thin air. Could it be that this mysterious strongman hired by Huang Long practiced the Rules of Fate?! Among the six major rules, the Rules of Fate were the most mysterious, involving time and space. Only those who had a certain level of understanding of space could make that dark blue sword disappear before him without him being able to detect it. And that wasn’t even the most concerning part—how could the opponent hide so well that even he couldn’t detect them? Huang Long retracted the Sword of Slaying Immortals into his body and used his Heavenly Ear to listen to the guesses of the people on Bingyu Peak, sneering inwardly at his own hired help. “Great Leader, what should we do now?” Goda, having shaken off his distress, asked in surprise after hearing Fini’s guess. “Keep moving forward!” Hebrew said coldly, his gaze sharp as he scanned the people on Bingyu Peak. How ridiculous! Could a mere assassination make him back down?! Under Hebrew’s gaze, everyone on Bingyu Peak trembled and quickly replied respectfully, “Yes, Great Leader!” Keep moving forward! But this time, they no longer had the bold momentum of before. They moved more cautiously, staying closer to each other, constantly scanning the surroundings, which naturally slowed them down significantly. Huang Long followed closely behind Bingyu Peak’s army, not rushing to act. A day passed, and the people on Bingyu Peak still remained vigilant. Night fell. The nights in the Netherworld were quiet and peaceful, and in this tranquility, killing and bloodshed seemed to fade away. Suddenly, at that moment, Hebrew waved his hand to stop everyone, frowning as he looked at the canyon ahead. “Great Leader, what’s going on?” Fini asked, stepping forward upon seeing Hebrew’s puzzled expression as he stared at the canyon. “There’s something wrong with the canyon ahead,” Hebrew said. Though he didn’t know exactly what was wrong, his spiritual senses told him that the canyon ahead wasn’t as simple as it seemed.

The six mid-tier gods of Bingyu Peak couldn’t help but glance in shock at the canyon ahead, but found nothing.
“If we take a detour through the canyon ahead, how long will the journey be?” Hebrew asked.
“Returning to the Great Leader, if that’s the case, it will take at least an extra half day,” Fini replied respectfully.
“Half a day,” Hebrew nodded and then said, “Give orders to take the detour!”
Compared to the extra time required, safety was the most important thing.
“Yes, Great Leader!” Fini and the others replied respectfully.
But just then, the dark blue sword light that had disappeared for a day reappeared. Under the moonlight of the night, it shone even brighter, flashing by in an instant before a scream rang out.
“Goda!” Fini cried out in shock.
That scream came from mid-tier god Goda’s throat—just like Edgar’s, a killing strike!
Goda fell to the ground.
Yet after that dark blue sword light vanished, it reappeared, moving back and forth among the lower-tier gods of Bingyu Peak, with screams echoing continuously.
“Attack!” Hebrew roared in anger. His top-tier divine weapon appeared in his hand as he led the attack.
But as everyone reacted and attacked in turn, the dark blue sword light disappeared completely. The night returned to calm, the scent of blood filling the air. The moonlight illuminated the bodies of two or three hundred godly warriors, including Goda, which appeared sickly green.
“All lower-tier gods who practice earth-based laws, attack the ground around us!” Hebrew shouted.
Although they couldn’t locate their opponent, they guessed that he might be hiding underground—the only place where he could evade their detection.
At Hebrew’s command, five or six hundred lower-tier gods who practiced earth-based laws launched fierce attacks on the surrounding ground and mountains. Rocks shattered, the ground solidified and surged. Over tens of thousands of miles around, everything was devastated. Yet once everything stopped, silence reigned once again.
Hebrew’s expression darkened. He knew they had let the opponent escape again!
Two mid-tier gods, including Hamidun—three in total!
Now, only five remained at Bingyu Peak. What would happen next?!
The atmosphere was tense; no one dared approach Hebrew, whose surroundings were as cold as ice.
“Keep moving forward!” After a while, Hebrew, his face as dark as water, roared. He simply couldn’t believe that over six thousand people from Bingyu Peak couldn’t capture or kill their opponent!
“Yes, Great Leader!” Fini and the others replied respectfully. Though terrified of the path ahead, they dared not suggest turning back.
Thousands of miles away, Huang Long watched as Bingyu Peak’s army continued marching toward Black Iron Peak, sneering. He had feared they would retreat.
