"In the name of Hades, the King of the Underworld, freeze time!"
To Yi Shuihan's surprise, Hades actually possessed the power to freeze time. This power was so close to stopping time that even Yi Shuihan could hardly perceive the subtle difference.
The place where Yi Shuihan was standing instantly exploded, and a piece of the earth abruptly disappeared, as if the sample had been suddenly erased. If viewed from outside Mars, one could clearly see that the originally relatively round Mars suddenly had a huge gap.
"You've got some skills!"
To withstand the two attacks, Yi Shuihan had given it his all, and felt somewhat exhausted afterward.
"How is this possible? It actually blocked it?"
Hades' eyes were much wider than usual. He, who had always maintained a cool and aloof demeanor, could no longer remain calm this time and revealed an expression of disbelief. Freezing time and space was a hidden technique of his, which was extremely powerful. He originally thought that even if he could not seriously injure Yi Shuihan, he would not let Yi Shuihan off easily. However, the attack he launched together with Ares did not even scratch a hair on Yi Shuihan's head.
"Amazing."
Ares praised him, though he wasn't as shocked as Hades, but his eyes grew increasingly excited, which made Yi Shuihan feel strange.
"My turn to attack, Thunderous Might!"
He raised his hands, mimicking an arcade game, and countless bolts of lightning suddenly appeared in the void, instantly engulfing the entire Mars. Endless lightning bolts continued to strike Hades and Ares.
It took a full five minutes to split, and by the time it was over, the Mars had turned completely black, looking as if it had been tanned from space.
"To think, to think that my precious body could be..."
A deafening roar erupted, and Hades, sporting an afro, stared at Yi Shuihan with eyes more terrifying than those of a father's killer, as if he wished he could tear Yi Shuihan to pieces and send his soul to the underworld to suffer eternal torment.
"It's just a new hairstyle, why are you making such a big reaction?"
Yi Shuihan was unaware that his accidental success was due to Hades's extreme care for his true form, which far exceeded Yi Shuihan's imagination. Looking at Ares next to him, he was in a much worse state than Hades, with his hair deformed and many scorch marks on his body. Yet, Ares was much calmer than Hades.
"What a delicate fellow. He's not even injured yet and he's already reacting so strongly. I really don't know where he gets his power from." Ares curled his lip, completely baffled by Hades's anger.
Hades' aura had nearly doubled in a short time, putting Yi Shuihan under pressure no less than when he faced Hades before.
And Ares, both.
This pressure did not worry Yi Shuihan. On the contrary, he was very happy and couldn't wait for Hades to explode again.
Hades in his unleashed state was on a completely different level than before. Even Ares wisely refrained from joining the battle this time, as Hades in this state posed a great threat to Ares.
"boom"
Yi Shuihan was successfully attacked by Hades for the first time and was kicked away a distance of the Pacific Ocean.
"Well done!"
After regaining his footing, Yi Shuihan charged out again, sensing that the opportunity was about to be completed.
When Hades' sword shone with black light and unleashed that earth-shattering slash, Yi Shuihan, under the immense sense of crisis, completed his mission and instantly increased his strength several times over at an illogical speed.
"Is this what a celestial being is like?"
A profound and mysterious realization dawned on Yi Shuihan, and he instantly understood that everything about him had undergone tremendous changes. The taste of becoming stronger was so intense that it became deeply ingrained in him, and he felt that everything in the world was wonderful.
The most important distinguishing feature between Earth Immortals and Celestial Immortals is their domain. Celestial Immortals have their own unique domain, similar to Hades' world of the dead, although Hades' world of the dead is clearly more advanced.
With a thought, a domain entirely composed of tribulation lightning enveloped the entire Mars. Within this domain, Yi Shuihan felt it was ten times easier to use tribulation lightning of equal power, while others within the domain had to first isolate themselves from the domain's power to use the same force.
You need to be careful, otherwise you'll only get the effect of 5 out of 10 points of effort.
Hades felt very uncomfortable under Yi Shuihan's domain, so he instantly released the Domain of the Dead, which canceled out the two and made him feel much better.
Hades' domain is indeed powerful, far surpassing Yi Shuihan's newly emerged domain, demonstrating the considerable effort he has put into it.
The two fields collided and neutralized each other, ultimately resulting in a situation where they were evenly matched.
Logically speaking, Yi Shuihan has only just entered the Celestial Immortal realm, and his domain should be inferior to Hades'. But who made Yi Shuihan's domain special? His domain, formed by tribulation lightning, is inherently superior to other domains.
After competing in their domains for nearly 10 minutes, Yi Shuihan and Hades suddenly and in perfect unison withdrew their domains at the same time.
"I'll let you off the hook today."
Hades uttered these words, barely suppressing the urge to reveal his ultimate trump card and kill Yi Shuihan at all costs.
Watching Hades leave quietly, Yi Shuihan made no other move. Now that he no longer needed to fight Hades, there was naturally no need to keep Hades alive. As for killing Hades directly, Yi Shuihan did not have that idea for the time being. He had just advanced, and although his strength had increased considerably, he was still not strong enough to be ganged up on by other main gods. He planned to keep a low profile for a while and improve his strength before making any further moves.
The one fighting Hades was only Yi Shuihan's clone. It looked like one against two, but Yi Shuihan knew that Hades was only using 8% of his strength at most, and Ares was probably in a similar situation. If Hades and Ares fought with all their might, the clone would probably be killed before it could break through.
The battle with Hades also allowed Yi Shuihan to temporarily understand the true nature of these main gods and obtain a considerable amount of useful data.
Chapter 849, I chase you, you chase me?
I pursue you, you pursue me?
"Lord Hades, are we just going to let him go like this?"
Thanatos, the god of death, asked unwillingly, but was only answered by Hades' indifferent gaze.
Hades himself didn't want to, but Yi Shuihan was too strong. It wasn't impossible for him to go all out and use all his trump cards to kill him, but that would expose his strength to the gods, which would be extremely detrimental to the battle for the source. He was now prioritizing the battle for the source, so he could temporarily put aside his grudges with Yi Shuihan.
Hypnos was a bit smarter than Death. He saw through something and put on an act as if Hades was in complete control, which eased Hades' mood a little.
"Aren't you leaving? Or are you planning to stay and continue fighting me?"
He looked at Ares with amusement. If Ares really decided to continue fighting, he wouldn't mind accompanying him. He could use the battle to consolidate his strength.
"Can I spar with you sometime?"
At that moment, Yi Shuihan actually saw a glimmer of hope in his rough face and agreed without much thought.
"Of course, you can come and challenge me anytime."
"Remember your words, I will find you soon."
Ares also left, but his last words gave Yi Shuihan a bad feeling.
"I shouldn't have agreed to his request, knowing full well that he's a battle maniac."
Thinking about the scene of Ares pestering him for sparring in the future, Yi Shuihan regretted it, and even the joy of breaking through was greatly diminished.
At the same moment that Yi Shuihan's clone crossed the boundary between Earth Immortal and Celestial Immortal, his main body on Mount Lu entered a state of enlightenment, which also distributed a large amount of experience to the warriors who were cultivating, causing their strength to surge at an abnormal speed once again.
He had only recently entered the seventh sense, but after all this commotion, he's almost breaking through to the eighth sense. I estimate that by the time Yi Shuihan's clone returns, the general level of a fighter will be the eighth sense.
...
"What brings you here, ma'am?"
Looking at Aphrodite striking poses in front of him, Yi Shuihan felt that he had gotten himself into big trouble again.
"Sister?" Aphrodite's eyes lit up at Yi Shuihan's address, and she seemed quite pleased. She gave a very charming smile and said softly in a somewhat fatherly tone, "Sister has come to play with her little brother! Does little brother want to play?"
She emphasized the word "younger brother" and glanced at the corresponding part of Yi Shuihan's body, which was quite flirtatious.
Such blatant seduction was almost too much for Yi Shuihan to handle. Although he knew that the beautiful woman in front of him had done this before, she was unbelievably beautiful, and her status as one of the twelve main gods added to her unique appeal, which was enough for Yi Shuihan to temporarily ignore the fact that this was not her first time.
Of course, Yi Shuihan was still able to stay clear-headed. He knew that if he really gave in so easily, his impression on Aphrodite would be greatly diminished, and he would be looked down upon.
I'm not a casual guy, so stay calm.
"Playing is certainly an option, but I don't know what you'd like to play, sister."
"What suggestions do you have, little brother? I'm not very opinionated, so whatever you say goes. I won't refuse you!"
"How about we play hide-and-seek? It's simple and fun. I'll be 'it,' and you can hide. If you lose a hundred times, I'll come find you. Don't worry, I'm a pro. No matter where you are, I'll definitely find you."
Aphrodite almost choked on her food when Yi Shuihan said that. She never expected Yi Shuihan to say such a thing in such a serious manner.
"Has my charm failed me?"
Aphrodite felt incredulous and looked at Yi Shuihan with some suspicion. She found that he was subtly sizing her up like other men. The familiar gaze reassured her. It wasn't that Yi Shuihan disliked her; he was just more rational.
Aphrodite wouldn't actually agree to play cat and mouse with Yi Shuihan; she was afraid that once she hid herself, Yi Shuihan would probably run away.
"How about we stop playing cat and mouse and play a chase game instead? I'll chase you, and if I catch you, you have to let me have some fun with you."
"... "
Staring at Aphrodite in astonishment, are you sure it wasn't me chasing you, but you chasing me? And what's with the "hehehe"? Do you even know about the founder?
He wanted to refuse, but then he thought about it again and agreed. "Aren't you the one who's pursuing me? Let's see if you can catch up with me."
"Alright then, this game it is, I'll start running now."
In the blink of an eye, Yi Shuihan disappeared from Aphrodite's sight, leaving her bewildered in the wind. Yi Shuihan's movements and speed were too fast, demonstrating a strength that Aphrodite simply could not catch up with.
"Should we slow down a bit? Actually, it's acceptable if she catches up with us."
Yi Shuihan, who was running at high speed, thought this, but never slowed down.
"Hmph, you can run away but you can't hide. I know your base is in Lushan. I'll just go there and wait for you to walk right into my trap."
Aphrodite, who had been standing there stunned for a moment, suddenly smiled, her eyes showing a hint of cunning.
Yi Shuihan was unaware that Aphrodite had somehow discovered his headquarters and, knowing he couldn't catch up with him, chose to head directly to Mount Lu.
The true form of Yi Shuihan is in Mount Lu. If Aphrodite were to meet the true form, the story would definitely be very interesting.
After leaving Aphrodite, the clone did not return to Mount Lu, but instead circled around to the Holy City. He was going to pick up Asuna and the others, and also take Iori Yagami from the Sanctuary with him.
"So, what's going on here?"
When they saw Asuna, Kirito and Muyan were surrounded by a group of men, and one of the men, who looked rather unattractive, was looking at them with great impatience.
"Brother Yi, you're here! Quickly help teach them a lesson! That guy actually wanted to capture us and make us number 15, 16, and 17!"
"That concubine is absolutely despicable."
Tongzi's eyes lit up when she saw Yi Shuihan, and she shouted.
"Concubines number 15, 16, and 17?"
Looking at this rather unattractive guy with a strange expression, Yi Shuihan felt quite intrigued. Looking at the other person, he felt a strange sense of amusement.
"With your slender frame, you already have 14 concubines? That's impossible! It would be a miracle if even one of them could handle it."
Chapter 850, The Aura of a Stallion

"My little frame? I have the physique of a standard strong man, and I don't know how many girls I've charmed. Kid, you better get out of here. I'm happy to have met my 15th, 16th, and 17th concubines today, so I won't bother with you. But if you don't leave, I'll chop you up and feed you to Big Yellow."
The guy, who was rather unattractive, had an arrogant expression and didn't take Yi Shuihan seriously at all.
"Ugly bastard, you can find girls with looks like that? You probably stole them all!"
"You're the ugly one, your whole family is ugly, do you think I'm handsome or not?"
Holy crap, this name is "Handsome Guy"? That's so unfair! It must have been changed later.
Speechless as he watched a group of people shouting "So handsome!" at an ugly guy who was clearly not good-looking, Yi Shuihan felt inexplicably nauseous.
Therefore, encountering an enemy is not scary. Even if the opponent is very strong and intelligent, as long as you are firm in your belief, you will always defeat the opponent, and then you will naturally feel confident and satisfied.
The most terrifying thing is encountering an enemy who is weak, has low intelligence, and possesses a uniquely disgusting worldview. Defeating such an enemy not only fails to bring satisfaction but also makes one feel that having such an enemy lowers one's own standards, and one fears that one's intelligence will be corrupted.
Clearly, the handsome man in front of Yi Shuihan was the kind of enemy he didn't want to encounter. At this moment, he even felt it was beneath him to speak to him.
I've completely lost the desire to be a hero and save a damsel in distress, or to show off a little in front of bad guys.
"Kiriko, you should be able to beat them, right? Why aren't you making a move yet?"
Yi Shuihan understood that there were indeed many of these people, but none of them were truly strong. Although Kirito wasn't particularly strong, it wouldn't be difficult for her to take them down. As for why she was called Kirito instead of Asuna, it was probably because Kirito was male and Kirito was female, but Yi Shuihan couldn't fully accept that.
"If I could fight, why would I need you? They used dirty tricks on us, and now I can't use my full strength at all."
Kiriko said helplessly.
"Oh? Is that true?"
Yi Shuihan was also stunned. He hadn't noticed before, but after Tongzi's explanation, he realized that things were not as simple as they seemed. Tongzi looked fine, but her aura was actually very weak.
"Kid, you're not leaving, huh? Then you're not leaving at all. Kill him."
With a wave of his hand, Shuai Ge summoned four lackeys wielding large machetes, who were then promptly defeated by Yi Shuihan, each taking down one of them with a single punch.
"Oh ho, you're quite the expert. I wonder if you can still hold your own against my Special Beam Cannon."
The Special Beam Cannon isn't Piccolo's; it's the name of a pistol or hand cannon because its firing port is much larger than a regular pistol, about the size of a palm.
"Where did this cutting-edge technology come from?"
At a glance, Yi Shuihan knew that this thing definitely did not belong to this world. Its technological content was too high, at least a hundred years ahead of the world.
It's not from this world, so it must be an item from another world. It's obvious that this is an item that Shuai Ge obtained from another world. It's just unknown whether he got it from someone from another world or simply found it by luck.
Shuai Ge pulled the trigger towards Yi Shuihan, and something very illogical happened: a beam of light shot out from the muzzle, a beam of light even larger than the muzzle itself.
