Odin was incredibly fast; he arrived at the rune almost instantly, but when he reached out to grab it, he unexpectedly found nothing.
The runes that were once so close had vanished, and he had been transported from the treasure vault to a high mountain far from the Golden Palace.
" The Ancient One!"
Odin was truly anxious this time. He reached out and the Gungnir appeared in his hand, and he donned golden armor from head to toe, with a cloak representing royalty materializing behind him.
It whistled in the wind, filled with murderous intent.
"Do you even know that's the primordial power of Asgard? That's what I used to suppress Hela!"
The rune had already reached Qin Xiao. Odin knew it was too late to go back now. Moreover, in front of the Ancient One, unless you kill her, no one can leave if she doesn't want you to!
His words were spoken through gritted teeth!
With Hela's appearance, Ragnarok immediately descend. Heaven knows how much Odin and the entire Asgard have paid over the years to suppress Hela and delay Ragnarok.
No powerful divine essence was released; only the so-called successor to the next king possessed a Thor's divine essence.
Others, such as the Warriors Three and even Thor's fiancée Sif, are merely goddesses of the earth and harvest; judging from their names alone, they are definitely not characters with superhuman fighting power.
This is because Odin compressed all the powerful divine essences into runes, which were then used to create a formation to suppress Hela.
Even so, facing Hela, who shared the same Asgard power as him, Odin had to replenish his own strength from time to time in order to barely suppress Hela, as Odin grew older and Hela grew stronger.
With one of the Vulcan's primordial essences missing, the seal on Hell will soon begin to stir.
Ragnarok, and Odin is not yet fully prepared.
So he didn't hesitate to put on a desperate act.
In contrast, the Ancient One remained calm and composed.
" Odin, I understand everything you're saying. If you want to fight to the death before facing Hela who has broken free of her seal, I have nothing to say. If not, calm down, and let's solve the problem together."
Meanwhile, on Qin Xiao's side, after Odin and the Ancient One appeared and disappeared again, Thor didn't know why his father wanted to stop that rune.
But since Odin is going to stop it, it must be in Asgard's best interest to do so.
So after Odin and the Ancient One disappeared, Thor reached out and grasped the rune without hesitation.
Unfortunately, the runes that embody the power of Vulcan are not something Thor, who hasn't even awakened his Power of Thor, can stop.
Before his hand even reached the rune, a devastating burst of fiery power pressed down on Thor.
This force was as violent and powerful as thousands of large volcanoes erupting at once.
Thor instinctively took a step back and withdrew his hand.
With just one step back, all the power of the flames vanished.
"Oh no! We've been tricked!"
Thor was actually scared off by a single mental simulation attack from an inanimate object.
He cursed under his breath in anger, wanting to reach out again to stop the runes, but it was too late.
The rune scared away Thor and went straight to Qin Xiao, spinning around in front of him before disappearing into Qin Xiao Qin Xiao's forehead.
The moment the rune entered his body, Qin Xiao's aura changed instantly, even though he was still engulfed in flames.
But at the beginning, Qin Xiao was more like a fire-resistant vessel, with flames traveling all over his body.
But as soon as the rune entered, Qin Xiao seemed to merge with the flames, as if he had become the flames themselves.
"This is... this is the primordial power of the Vulcan, how is this possible..."
Thor's eyes were filled with disbelief.
Legend has it that long ago, besides the All-Father, Asgard had twelve chief gods, who were the most powerful beings in the entire Asgard.
Thor himself was one of them, but at some point, all these powerful gods of Asgard disappeared.
Only his own divine position remained, along with Heimdall, the god of light.
Even when Thor repeatedly asked Odin, Odin remained silent.
Thor thought that Odin had encountered some powerful enemy when he was conquering the universe, and that not only were those gods killed, but even the very essence of their divine positions was destroyed.
Aside from his own Thor status as Thor.
Who knew that today would actually happen...
So that rune we just saw is the source power of the divine position of the god of fire, one of the twelve main gods.
But why is it here? And why has it entered the body of Qin Xiao, an Earthling?
Thor, who had no idea what had happened, decided to sit down quietly and wait for Qin Xiao to wake up since he had failed to stop him.
In fact, there was nothing he could do if he didn't wait. His Power of Thor hadn't undergone its first awakening yet, and he couldn't stop Qin Xiao's current state.
It's possible to destroy it by force using Mjolnir.
However, it's still uncertain what what just happened means for Asgard, since Odin only stopped the runes, not killed Qin Xiao outright.
Thor could only helplessly watch as Qin Xiao absorbed the essence of godhood.
Odin and the Ancient One have arrived at a mysterious place beneath the Golden Palace.
The space here is somewhat distorted, with a huge black portal emitting a faint black light. The inside of the portal is also pitch black, making it impossible to see what is on the other side or what the environment is like.
Only occasionally can one hear the agonizing howls emanating from the portal, telling others that the other side of the portal is definitely not a pleasant place for leisure and vacation.
Odin, still furious, waved his hand at the portal.
A golden light appeared above, and a massive magical pattern emerged in front of the portal, densely covered with extremely complex and unidentified characters and symbols.
Furthermore, golden chains composed of magical energy were tightly bound around the magical group and the portal.
Each chain is covered with runes similar to the dark red runes from before. White and cyan runes, representing various rules of energy, suppress these chains and completely seal the portal.
On one of the chains without runes, magical energy flickered intermittently, and even slight cracks had appeared.
Clearly, the above corresponds to the original runes of the God of Fire, but unfortunately, they have now been absorbed by Qin Xiao.
This chain has clearly lost its source of power and will likely break completely soon.
At that time, the entire seal will completely collapse because of this one point.
Chapter Three is here! There's another chapter tonight, perfect for reading after I get home from get off work, shower, eat, and lie in bed. Aren't I thoughtful? Haha! (awkward laugh!)
