Bloodline of Gods: The Genius at Olympus Academy!

The stealth that they had learned wasn't any grandiose divine technique or anything like that; instead, it was something much more basic. But basic didn't mean it was ineffective.

Sometimes, you also had to take a look at who was teaching you such basic techniques. Raelia was a divine descendant of the goddess of the hunt, and things like stealth and avoidance were as easy as breathing to her.

Even basic techniques from someone like her would be enough to be considered a god-like skill in the mortal world.

The trio used the stealth techniques to sneak up to the entrance and were quickly mesmerized.

he tunnel gradually widened into a vast underground cavern, its scale overwhelming. Along the walls and ceiling, faint patches of glowing green moss twinkled like distant stars, casting an eerie, magical light across the space.

The cool, heavy air felt alive, as if the cavern itself was watching them. The shimmering light gave the chamber a strange, enchanting beauty, but beneath the surface, a sense of foreboding lingered.

Their awe was short-lived, as their gaze fell upon a sight that made their skin crawl. Beneath them, the cavern floor was swarming with snakes, their bodies writhing in a sea of endless motion. Each snake was covered in sleek, abyssal black scales, with eerie white markings resembling ghostly faces twisted in silent screams.

The air was thick with the unsettling hiss of scales brushing against stone.

At the center of the cavern lay a crystal-clear lake, its surface smooth and undisturbed, reflecting the faint light above. Floating on the water was a single large black-and-white lotuses, its petals glowing faintly, pulsing with an otherworldly energy. The flowers, beautiful yet ominous, seemed to draw in the viewer's gaze, as if luring them into a trance.

Eventually, Aiden managed to overpower the soul-charming effect of the Netherspring Lotus and took a good look at his true enemy.

It was the Weeping Soul Serpent King that they had to eliminate.

It lay calmly on a large boulder near the Netherspring Lake.

Its body completely dwarfed the other Weeping Soul Serpents twisting and writhing around the lakeshore with its massive and thick frame.

Its green eyes opened slightly from time to time, gazing over the surroundings with a grand sense of majesty.

Aiden looked at it and could feel the threat the beast posed.

He took a deep breath, loosening his muscles, and let the divinity inside his body flow through him. He turned towards his two companions.

"Ready?" asked Aiden.

"Ready," they both replied with confident smiles.

As they said this, both of them dashed to the side, leaving Aiden all alone.

The plan was to ambush and assist in defeating the Weeping Soul Serpent King.

To do that, they needed a distraction, and in such a dark underground cave, what better distraction was there than a dazzling ball of golden light?

Aiden took a deep breath, and the divinity within him began to surge. His dazzling blonde hair started to float in the wind as bright golden flames formed a giant whirlpool all around him.

The second he acted, Aiden's torrent of fire didn't stop and surged forward, burning and annihilating any Weeping Soul Serpent that dared to get in his way.

Within just a few seconds, Aiden had appeared in front of the gaunt Weeping Soul Serpent King.

Aiden pulled back his fist, causing the golden flames around him to tremble as they coalesced around his arms.

[Daybreak Fist]

Boom!

In that second, a burst of blinding light exploded in the darkness, like the rising sun breaking through the horizon.

Even the massive Weeping Soul Serpent King felt its bones shake as a massive force tore through its scales, penetrating deep into its body.

Roar!

A soul-shaking cry emanated from the giant serpent's lips. Explore stories on My Virtual Library Empire

This was one of the unique techniques of the Weeping Soul Serpents.

[Soul Weep]

A loud, distinct cry that mimicked the wailing of souls crossing the River Styx!

Even someone as resolute as Aiden ended up stumbling, raising his hands to cover his ears as he winced in pain.

The surrounding Weeping Soul Serpents didn't let the chance their king had created go to waste.

Countless Weeping Soul Serpents rose up like an endless tide and rushed toward Aiden, hissing and crying as their countless green eyes burned with an ominous light.

Aiden braced himself and channeled the divinity within his body directly toward his hands, ready to face the swarm, but his two teammates were a step ahead.

A wave of golden and silver light spread across the roof of the cavern before a barrage of golden and silver arrows crashed down from above.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sight was terrifying.

The deadly arrows fell from the sky like a rain of death, piercing straight through the Weeping Soul Serpents and nailing them deep into the ground.

Silver lights flashed from the tips of Raelia's arrows like lethal blades, slicing and eviscerating anything they touched, while golden flames bloomed from Oliver's arrows, crashing into the ground with a deafening explosion that swept out a wave of golden divine fire.

Within seconds, the inside of the cavern had been turned into a hellish purgatory.

Blood spilled, and the wails of the slaughtered beasts filled the room as a sea of fire raged all around.

With just one look around, Aiden knew that he didn't have to worry about the remaining Weeping Soul Serpents for the time being.

Right now, all he needed to do was repay his teammates' trust and defeat the Weeping Soul Serpent King as quickly as possible!

Aiden's body flickered like a golden ghost, and before the serpent king could blink, Aiden was hovering over its head.

Boom!

Aiden brought down his fist, wrapped in golden flames, sending the upper body of the giant Weeping Soul Serpent King crashing into the floor.

The serpent king howled furiously and swung its tail like a colossal whip with the force to shatter mountains, but Aiden's body just flashed with a golden light, and he disappeared.
