Chapter 276 Pure Death
After absorbing enough of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword returned to its original form.
On the pure black, ancient blade, subtle, pale gold patterns shimmered with a captivating light.
"The power of the Immortal Slayer Sword...has been restored?"
Although Hela had recognized the true identity of the sword before, the power contained within the Immortal Slayer Sword back then was vastly different from what it is now.
"How could it be so fast? Just now it clearly seemed like it was struggling to survive. Could it be... that there's a divine object in that gourd that can accelerate the sword's recovery?"
"What? You were just wondering what tricks they had up their sleeves, but now that they've pulled out a fully restored immortal sword, you're scared?"
Seeing Hela's shocked expression, Thor made a sarcastic remark with obvious disdain.
"It's not that I'm afraid, you would be afraid too if you were in my shoes."
"What am I afraid of? I was dealt with by these immortal swords a hundred years ago, and I don't think it will be the same a hundred years later."
"This is different."
"What's the difference?"
"Because the Immortal Slayer Sword contains the laws of death."
"Aren't you also the Goddess of Death? Is the power of law contained in this Immortal Slaughtering Sword any different from the Netherworld Law you possess?"
"You idiot, don't you understand?... I'm talking about the laws of death, not the laws of the underworld."
Upon hearing this, Hela's face showed not only fear but also a hint of helplessness.
I don't know how my father and mother could have given birth to such a brainless younger brother.
"Simply put, the laws of the underworld control the souls of the dead, while the laws of death control death itself."
"Being corrupted by the laws of death leaves only one path: annihilation of both body and soul."
"So scary?"
After Hela's voice faded, a look of surprise finally appeared on Thor's face.
But he didn't take it to heart. After all, the difference in their cultivation levels was undeniable. Even if the Death Law of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword was very strong, it was impossible for Li Jie, a mere mortal, to easily control this power of law that he had never encountered before.
"Hela, you are one of the strongest beings closest to the supreme gods, yet you are so frightened by this sword with strange laws. It's a bit too embarrassing."
"Why don't you go? I'm not going to fight anyway. There's an old saying in the Great Xia Dynasty: 'Where there's life, there's hope.' Once you're entangled by the law of death, even Father King can't easily get rid of it, let alone the two of us."
"Okay, I agree to the evacuation, but you have to take full responsibility for the failure of this operation."
"Okay, I understand."
At this point, Hela also realized Thor's 'good intentions'.
He was afraid of being punished by his father if the mission failed and they returned to Asgard, but she couldn't care less about that now.
After all, only she, who had spent years with death, knew how terrifying the laws governing life and death truly were.
"Once we enter the city, we will contact Heimdall to return to Asgard."
"it is good."
After saying this, Hela dispersed the countless soul blades and rushed towards the sea.
Thor followed closely behind, not forgetting to summon back Mjolnir, the hammer that had summoned thunder from mid-air.
Upon seeing this, Li Jie's lips curled into a strange smile.
Want to go?
Just as Hela and her companion were about to sink into the sea and enter the Netherworld City-State, Li Jie reached out and grasped the Immortal Slaughtering Sword, then gently slashed it towards the sky above the sea.
A jet-black sword aura, imbued with divine mercy, arrived in an instant, blocking the two gods from Asgard in mid-air.
"Is this the law of death? How come the sword intent contained in this sword energy has absolutely nothing to do with the word 'death'?"
Fortunately, Hela reacted quickly and stopped Thor from rushing towards the Underworld.
Otherwise, he would have been slashed by Li Jie.
"I wasn't quite sure how much the Immortal Slaughtering Sword had recovered before, but based on this sword energy alone, I can now make that judgment."
"She has recovered to her peak condition, perhaps even surpassed it..."
"I have already opened the gates of the Netherworld City-State. Find your own opportunity to enter the city, and I will launch a feigned attack."
Hela truly lives up to her reputation as the being closest to the supreme being; she could determine the extent to which the Immortal Slaughtering Sword had been restored with just a single sword aura.
Even in the blink of an eye, they had already made detailed plans and found the only way out.
Upon hearing this, Thor stopped dawdling and used the last bit of divine power within his body to unleash divine lightning, obscuring the figures of the two.
"Hurry, my lightning can only last for a moment!"
With his vision obscured by the lightning, Li Jie did not hesitate for long. Relying on the power of the law of death that filled the Immortal Slaughtering Sword, which had just recovered to its peak, he unleashed dozens of [Two Green Snakes in the Sleeves].
The pale blue sword light, accompanied by a howl that resembled a dragon but wasn't, swept away.
The slowly rising lightning net protective shield instantly melted away under the erosion of this pure law of death.
The two men's faces were revealed to be filled with terror.
"Damn it, how could it be so fast!"
"Stop talking nonsense, Thor! Cut off all contact with your lightning right now!"
Sensing the intense deathly aura emanating from these sword energies, Hela cried out in alarm.
Upon hearing this, Thor did not hesitate. With a wave of his arm, he uprooted the connection between the lightning net and his body.
However... the sword energy, filled with sacred compassion, had already spread to his arm.
Seeing this, Hela's eyes narrowed slightly, and with a swift movement, she severed Thor's remaining arm.
"what you do?!!"
Feeling a pain in his shoulder, Thor stared at Hela and exclaimed in surprise.
"What am I doing? Saving your life!"
Without time for further explanation, Hela dragged Thor's armor and charged into the Underworld.
"Heimdall! Take us back!!"
The instant Hela's voice fell, a seven-colored beam of light, over a hundred meters in diameter, descended.
They uprooted the hidden city-state beneath the sea and carried the two of them towards Asgard.
After sensing that the auras of the two Asgardian gods had completely disappeared, Li Jie shook his head and sighed softly.
"They still lack cohesion... Otherwise, we should at least keep them here indefinitely..."
"That's easier said than done. If Lulu's power of law hadn't just happened to be able to restrain these second-rate gods, you would probably have had to put in a lot more effort."
Seeing that the powerful enemy had retreated, Xian'er also floated out of Li Jie's Qi Sea and came to his side.
