But he aged so rapidly.
It was enough to demonstrate the terrifying power released by the Donghuang Bell.
To restrain the three women, who were also adept in the power of time, to such an extent—using their own methods against them.
Yet you still can't bear it.
"Stop!"
Two figures once again soared up from the ground, unable to stand by and watch the three women suffer grievous injuries.
They were the chosen successors of the gods of Forest and War.
A beautiful woman with green hair and a burly man with a bare chest and bulging muscles both launched attacks at the same time.
The Forest God Child waved his hand, and the willow branches of thousands of trees unfurled, stretching into the silver waterfall, only to wither away at a visible pace.
They turned from lush green to withered yellow, lasting even less time than the three goddesses.
In the blink of an eye, they shriveled and darkened before finally turning to ash.
The fist of light from the War God Child burst into it and also dissipated rapidly, as if it had been floating in the air for thousands of years.
Neither the Forest God Child nor the War God Child could even touch the three goddesses before they failed.
They looked on with ugly expressions, fixating on the three aging goddesses within the silver waterfall, gritting their teeth in hatred, yet not daring to rush in recklessly to the rescue.
"Since you care so much about them, why don't you join them!"
Luo Yu sneered.
The Donghuang Bell seemed to sense its master's intention and gently swayed.
The descending silver waterfall suddenly expanded.
It enveloped both the Forest Goddess and the War God Child.
Their pupils contracted, and before they had time to rescue their own, they turned to run.
But they couldn't outrun the pursuing speed of the silver waterfall.
Nothing is slower than time.
But nothing is faster than time either.
The two figures washed over by the silver waterfall changed color in shock, instantly feeling the pressure experienced by the three goddesses.
"God Descending Technique!"
The Forest Goddess and the War God Child immediately executed the God Descending Technique.
A huge willow tree phantom sprouted forth, and at the same time, a burly god appeared, driving a brown chariot, but they both held up only briefly.
The willow tree first grew larger, but once it swelled to its limit, it began to decay and shed leaves.
The withered leaves, accompanying the pitch-black trunk, lost all signs of life.
Eventually, it collapsed.
The brown chariot quickly lost its color and became ever more dilapidated, ultimately turning into a pile of wood ash.
And that burly god had already dissipated invisibly long before.
With this, all five gods were trapped within it, and others were so scared that they dared not approach.
They stared fixedly at Luo Yu and the Donghuang Bell, which displayed immense power.
Their eyes were filled with fear.
"Hahaha."
Luo Yu let out a hearty laugh towards the sky.
"Come on, why is no one stepping forward now?"
"Dark Council, what are the rest of you waiting for? Don't you like to join forces?"
The Odin God Child and the last two cloaked God Children who had not yet made a move looked on with troubled countenances, their lips quivered, but ultimately, they said nothing, coldly watching the sky.
They had no intention of taking action.
Luo Yu said with a cold smile to the five suffering God Children within the silver waterfall:
"See that? Your people don't dare to risk coming to save you."
"It's over."
Luo Yu snapped his fingers, and instantly the silver waterfall emitted by the Donghuang Bell contracted inward, its power surging once more. The five God Children dissipated.
They could no longer withstand this assault and destruction from the force of time.
Countless Divine Power origin particles floated within the silver waterfall, undestroyed.
Indeed, left to the power of the Donghuang Bell alone, these Divine Power origin particles would also have been destroyed by the force of time, but these were all nutrients Luo Yu was saving to absorb for himself.
Why would he easily destroy them?
"Collect—"
With a beckoning gesture from Luo Yu's finger, a suction force appeared at the bottom of the Donghuang Bell.
It absorbed all of the Origin Power belonging to the five God Children.
Luo Yu couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
He had already collected the Origin Power of five God Children before, and with these now, it made ten.
It was delightful beyond words.
After absorbing them, his strength would rise significantly.
He stood tall in the sky, looking down: "Who else?"
"Let's all come up together."
None of the three remaining God Children on the ground moved a muscle. Luo Yu's endless tricks were truly frightening. There always seemed to be a method to counter you, and that was terrifying.
Especially the recent Donghuang Bell, which clearly wielded a higher level of time power.
This sort of force was something few dared to provoke.
Even the God Children from the Pantheon Temple were beginning to feel troubled, finding it very difficult to handle.
"Rest assured, I won't be using the Donghuang Bell any time soon,"
"Go ahead, make your move!"
"Even if you did use it, what good would it do you? You really think we can't handle it!"
At this moment, a short figure in a black robe flew up from the ground.
Luo Yu smiled and summoned the Donghuang Bell.
He raised his finger to strike it.
The diminutive figure in the black robe backed away again and again in terror, not daring to face it head-on.
"Hahaha."
"I haven't even made a move, and you're already running,"
The other party realized they had been tricked and tore off the black robe in one swift motion.
The person was quite small, probably no more than 1.4 meters tall.
But they looked unusually mature, their face covered with wrinkles and a large beard.
"What God's Child are you, a dwarf?!" Luo Yu said.
"I am chosen by the Giant Ancestor, what are you to criticize the height of this God's Child," the Giant God Child huffed with a burst of purplish-brown Divine Power, which condensed into a full set of armor on his body surface, then rapidly enlarged.
The armor grew as well.
The Giant God Child soon expanded to over a hundred meters tall, holding an iron mace studded with long spikes that seemed to still be stained with blood.
Covered with countless brown granite rocks on his body, it formed a thick layer of rocky armor that radiated an unbreakable, substantial aura.
"Die, child of Great Xia!"
The Giant God Child lifted the mace high and smashed it down hard.
The surrounding space was instantly locked by the terrifying Divine Power, making spatial movement impossible.
His specialty was overwhelming all techniques with brute force.
He intended to crush Luo Yu to death before he could even react.
"A test of strength?"
"I summon Chiyou!"
"Boom!"
In an instant, the Blood Evil Qi in the sky soared, as if a great demon had descended upon the world.
Luo Yu's figure also grew rapidly, his body radiating a bronze color, and every muscle looked as meticulously crafted as diamond and steel.
His fist bulged as he threw a punch with all his might.
The mace collided with the fist, thunder and lightning surged in the sky, and the roaring was unceasing.
Everyone was shocked by this display of power.
"Fuck, aren't we the descendants of Yan Huang? How come Chiyou was summoned!"
"Isn't Chiyou considered a person of Great Xia?"
"Is this the legendary Chiyou?"
"Demonic might, so terrifying, this power..."
The Giant God Child's complexion turned ugly; his full-powered smash couldn't make the slightest dent.
"Is that all the strength you have?"
Luo Yu shook his head, issuing a thunder-like vociferous voice as his fist surged with power for the second time.
"Crack! Crack!!"
The seemingly indestructible mace was actually smashed to pieces.
The fragments scattered and shot out, shattering the clouds like meteorites.
They penetrated the ground.
And also punched numerous fine holes into the Giant God Child's body.
Turning him into a sieve.
"Giant God Child?"
Luo Yu unleashed a technique that even Chiyou did not possess.
"Law Heaven—"
"Equivalent Earth!"
In an instant, Luo Yu's already towering figure surged even higher.
He stood immense, becoming a being that spanned thousands of feet.
The Giant God Child, under his feet, was like a mere ant.
His hairs stood on end from fright.
Compared to Luo Yu, this heir of the Giant Ancestor was nothing, too insignificant.
Luo Yu's hand reached out, like the Buddha's Five Fingers Mountain.
No matter how the Giant God Child tried to escape, it was futile; he was firmly locked on.
Eventually, he was caught in Luo Yu's hand and crushed to pieces.
The world was stunned!
It felt like Luo Yu was not becoming tired from the competition; instead, he seemed to be getting more spirited as he fought.
"Rumble—"
At this point, Odin's God Child could no longer hold back.
He rushed up alongside a tall figure in a black robe of the same height as him.
