Chapter 459 - 456 | The Concept Of Death, Crushing The Soul.
These gods of the Earth, whether Greek, Nordic, or other camps...
As long as they had their own area of expertise, divine power, and authority...
For example, Ares, the God of War, Poseidon, the God of the Sea...
To some extent, they were equivalent to immortal beings.
To be precise, they were very difficult to be completely and conceptually erased.
Even if the gods were killed, they could reincarnate or be reborn after a while.
Because they had a complete operating system, such dimensional worlds as ' Underworld', 'Hell', 'Heaven', 'Valhalla' and other dimensional worlds to accommodate their souls.
As long as their divine powers weren't destroyed or deprived of, their authority remained.
For them, death was only the destruction of their body. Their souls were immortal.
If you wanted to obliterate them completely, you had to use some special items, weapons, or methods.
"The gods are immortal! Hades is my uncle. Even if you send me to hell, what else can you do after that?"
Ares finally faced up to the cruel fact that he lost to a mortal.
His helmet, a symbol of war, was crushed by his opponent.
The indestructible divine golden armour was also split into pieces.
Not only did he lose, but he lost pretty badly.
It could be said that he failed miserably.
But that didn't mean that Ares would grovel before Luke and admit his mistake.
This long-lived Olympian god was just like the Asgardians, who were stuck in their own ways for thousands of years.
Always showing great pride and arrogance, always looking at other creatures with contempt.
Actually, truthfully speaking, it was only the incarnation of those concepts that qualified as the true gods.
Beings like Ares and Zeus were false gods.

They were just a group of thieves who stole the divine power of those concepts and packaged themselves in a high-profile way.
Because they had a long life and seemed powerful, they appeared as gods to the world.
No wonder Diana, who was a demigod herself and came from Themyscira, resented the confusing pile of relatives she had.
"Gods? Eternal and immortal? Are you worthy?"
Luke almost laughed when he heard it. It's not like he didn't know the origin of the Gods of Olympus.
Besides, he had beaten Odin, the Allfather of the Nordic deities. Why would he care about Greek deities?
"You have told so many lies that you have believed them yourself."
Luke shook his head. There were many ways for him to kill these false gods.
Although Zeus, Poseidon and Hades, when their names were said out loud, one was scarier than the other...
But when it came to real combat power, they might not be as good as Odin, the Allfather.
The Gods of Olympus had been beaten by mortal men more than once.
"The so-called God of War is nothing more than that."
Luke didn't bother to talk nonsense; he just kicked the other party off the clouds.
Ares, who miserably lost, was defenceless. Like a cannonball in full force, his body tore through the atmosphere, and he smashed to the bottom of the sea.
Boom!
The waves surged across the sea, raising huge waves!
On the deck of Themyscira's ship, General Antiope and Penthesilea, Ares's daughter, were on the sidelines the whole time.
They were both dumbfounded, with incredibly shocked expressions on their faces.
A stupefied look.
'That's the God of War, Zeus's son!'
'Even Hippolyta, the Amazon Queen, is wary of him. '
'A mortal beat him?'
'If this gets out, no one would believe it.'
"Is this ... the man who was with Diana?"
Antiope struggled to support herself and stood up, gazing at the sturdy figure high in the sky, wondering if she was mistaken.
The sea monster of Atlantis and the twelve Gods of Olympus weren't just concepts.
'That man survived and saved the Amazon Princess.'
'And single-handedly defeated the God of war, to stop a world war. This isn't a hierarchical issue either.'
Ignoring the amazement and shock of the two on the ship, Luke opened his bio-force field, drained the water and went to the bottom of the sea.
Boom!
The whole ocean seemed to tremble under Superman's presence.
The stormy undercurrents pounded, and the violent waves lifted.
Themyscira's ship, like a swaying boat, sometimes threw itself up and sometimes fell down.
"Did you think what I said just now meant sending you to Hades's Underworld?"
Luke grabbed the battered Ares with one hand; he had no intentions of letting him go that easily.
He might have to think about it. If it were in the main universe, he would have killed the God of War and directly offended Zeus.
After all, as an illegal immigrant, attracting too much attention wasn't a good thing.
But this was the Flashpoint world, and everything Luke did would eventually be repaired and rewritten by the inertia of time and space.
So, he could be a little ... a tiny bit presumptuous.
"Sorry, God of War. You were wrong."
Luke gently smiled, and his palm exerted its strength. Without giving Ares a chance to leave his last words, he broke his neck.
Crack!
There was a crisp sound.
The tall and burly God of War collapsed as if he had lost all the bones in his body.
Luke threw away the dead body of the god as if he was throwing away garbage.
Then, he opened his palm and gripped it violently!
"Ahhh! Ahhh!"
The sound of a shrill scream spread out.
It was Ares's soul!
He was squeezed in Luke's hand, looking pitiful, weak and helpless.
"How did you ... Impossible ...!"
In disbelief, the God of War's emotions seemed as if he was under severe shock.
"You look surprised, Mr God. You can't figure out why I could catch a soul, and it's the soul of the God of War that should have fallen into Hades's Underworld?"
Luke was very satisfied with Ares's reaction. His lips curled up, and he said, "Honestly, I'd be happy to answer your questions and deliver a few taunts in a victorious tone."
"But I'm a good man, so I won't do it."
"Take this question to your complete death -- even if it's only for a short while."
Boom!
Luke clutched the powerful soul tainted with divine power, abruptly tightened his five fingers and closed his palm.
Like crushing a bag of biscuits or popping a bubble...
With the booming sound of the atmosphere, Ares's screams couldn't penetrate. He directly disappeared from the world.
"He's not a mortal; he's a ... god?"
General Antiope took a deep breath. In her perception, only a god could kill another god.
Through the suppression of the divine nature, divine power and authority, the opponent may be sealed or obliterated.
That was how Zeus defeated his father, the Titan, Cronus.
"Ah, that's what killing a god feels like."
Luke clapped his hands together with a bland face.
He had the power of death and his own Underworld.
Although, the former wasn't recognised as the concept of 'death' in this studio.
However, the existence of the underworld was enough for Luke to temporarily suppress Ares's power and snatch the God of War's soul from Hades's hands.
After that, it depended on his own mood.
