Rumble!!
A lightning spear tore through the sky like a shooting star.
It moved so fast that the naked eye couldn't even track its path.
The terrifying power within it, strong enough to obliterate all matter, raced toward the two Eternals.
Wherever it passed, space itself cracked and trembled.
It was clear now—this so-called Lightning Demon wasn't just a name. At his peak, his combat power could rival even that of the Holy Master!
After all, the ancient demons were all supreme beings among their kind.
Only the long ages had eroded their strength.
"So scary…"
"I think I know who that is."
"Who?"
"The warlike tyrant who once ruled the American continent—Zhong Su!"
Golden hair whipped through the wind. The tall, graceful woman, intelligent yet elegant, parted her red lips and swiftly assumed a defensive stance. A circular shield formed in her hand, condensed from cosmic energy.
She would meet Zhong Su head-on.
Seven thousand years ago, when the Eternals returned to Earth,they had already heard countless whispers of the ancient secrets and legends—
The Primeval Avengers.The Eight Great Demons.And more.
They had always regretted missing the chance to fight those ancient powers.
Until today.
After tens of thousands of years, beings from different eras had finally crossed paths again!
"Come, then…"
"Zhong Su!"
Ikaris clenched his fists tight. Intricate glowing lines spread across his eyes.
Then, the omnipresent cosmic energy within his body gathered, coursing through his visual and auditory nerves in a thunderous surge—
Shu-shu-shu-shu!!
Two beams of destructive light converged, merging into a blazing stream of heat vision several meters wide. It tore apart the incoming lightning spear and kept going—
Slamming straight into the Lightning Demon's chest!
The golden Roman-style armor shattered into fragments—
Reduced to dust!
The sheer power of the beam made even Shen Du, who had been watching coolly from the side, widen his eyes in awe.
Its might could rival Cyclops's optic blasts!
"…So the Eternals," Shen Du mused, narrowing his eyes, "really are the Celestials' favored children."
"If the Eternals are already this strong… how powerful must the Deviants be?"
Probably not much weaker.
Huff… huff… huff…
The Lightning Demon's chest was bare and charred black, each breath rasping like the sound of a bellows.
That was Zhong Su gasping for air.
He had underestimated these two uninvited guests.
Even the beloved armor he'd worn for centuries was now in pieces—
What a loss!
"That's it?"
Ikaris's gaze glowed white-hot, his body wrapped in violent cosmic energy.
He looked at Zhong Su with disdain.
That's it?
The mockery stung like a blade.
The Lightning Demon instantly snapped.
His whole body blurred into a storm of crackling lightning.
Crack!
Dark clouds rolled across the heavens.
Snakes of silver lightning flashed madly,as though the sky itself were enraged.
The magnificent yet deadly scene was terrifying to behold—
Like the thunder god Zeus himself, furious in the storm.
Zzz-krrt!
Forked lightning struck Zhong Su's massive frame,
further empowering his demonic lightning aura.
In the Bagua, this was the "Zhen" trigram—the thunder that awakens the earth,the power that commands all things.
Since ancient times, lightning has been the most direct force to sweep away all evil.
Even in modern times, humanity cannot live without electricity—Without it, factories stop, society collapses,and civilization regresses by centuries.
The lightning's radiation and heat could even smelt metal,and its current let him move instantly through magnetic fields.
He had nearly forgotten this ability—until rage rekindled it.
Only fury could awaken that dormant memory.
"This—"
"A top-tier High Demon?"
"His strength just skyrocketed several times over?!"
"Unbelievable."
Former Ghost Rider Carter Slade focused his demonic sight on the battlefield,and his scalp tingled in shock.
In his one hundred and fifty years of life,he had never witnessed anything like it.
There was only one explanation—
The Lightning Demon's true power surpassed that of an ordinary High Demon!
Of course it did.
How could the Holy Master's siblings be any weaker than him?
Their powers had always been evenly matched—only the Holy Master had escaped the millennia of imprisonment that weakened the others.Even sealed away as a stone dragon statue,his power had not truly waned.
"Incredible," someone murmured.
"For a second, I thought Zeus himself had descended to Earth."
"The Lightning Demon…"
"…truly lives up to his name."
The two Eternals exchanged glances and spoke in unison—their tones calm, not fearful.
Why should they be afraid?
The Eternals' blood was pure and divine,a creation of the Celestial calculator Nezhar himself.
Even interbreeding with Earth's life forms could not pass on their powers—they had endured countless lifetimes of loss because of it.
But recently, they had discovered a new black-market serum—one that contained a mysterious substance resembling Celestial matter.
Could it be that… a Celestial had fallen?Drained of every cell to create this blood serum?
The mystery fascinated these long-lived beings.
"You've successfully angered me,"
snarled Zhong Su.
"Pathetic ants!"
"Taste the might of thunder and lightning!"
"With this technique, I nearly slew a god once!"
He roared,and torrents of electricity surged into his palms, coalescing into a massive sphere of lightning—like a Spirit Bomb of pure thunder—
which he raised high above his head.
It was as if he held a comet in one hand!
"Hiss…"
Ikaris drew in a sharp breath.
"Nearly killed… a god?!"
The blonde beauty's pupils widened.
Could it be that god?
She remembered a rumor—
Ares.
The god of war, rebellion, and slaughter.
The bloodthirsty lord of chaos,the embodiment of strength and power,the very symbol of humanity's disasters.
Eons ago, before the dawn of recorded history,he had once wandered into the Lightning Demon's domain,still a reckless young god—
and nearly lost his life there.
The Eternals, who had long dealt with the Greek pantheon,knew of such secrets well.
"Ares?"
"So that rash brat was called Ares?"
"I hope next time we meet, I can personally finish him off!"
Zhong Su burst into laughter.
Then, the massive lightning sphere plummeted from the heavens—
Its size did not slow it down in the slightest;
if anything, it fell faster, almost instantaneously!
Shu-shu-shu!!
Thena reacted at once, channeling cosmic energy to create a shield just as large—
A massive, gleaming construct covered in razor-sharp edges,shining with a metallic brilliance.
Rumble!!
The lightning sphere struck.
A blinding light erupted, overwhelming all vision.
Only a handful of beings could still perceive reality through the glare.
They saw storms and tidal waves sweeping outward,dimensional walls cracking faintly,and invisible blades of energy slicing clean through a mountaintop.
Trees and stones tumbled down like rain.
The devastation was on par with a natural catastrophe.
"How I admire your divine power, Brother Zhong Su,"
Shen Du praised at just the right moment.
But when the dust settled—
the two Eternals stood there, utterly unharmed.
A High Demon's attack could never wound gods of the highest order.
The gap in power between them was an unbridgeable chasm.
"I suppose it's our turn to strike back."
Ikaris cracked his knuckles,his joints snapping in a sharp rhythm—as though he had just finished warming up.
Buzz!!
Twin beams of searing light burst from his eyes,splitting the night sky in two,cutting straight toward Zhong Su.
The Lightning Demon, his strength nearly spent,trembled as his pupils dilated in terror.
His face twisted in desperation as he let out a hoarse, furious roar—
"Holy Master!"
"Save me!"
