Damn, I Have to Marry the Strongest Antagonist at the Start?-Chapter 521 - 517-The Shock of the Three Primordial Gods
As the surrounding soul energy converged toward the behemoth, its massive body grew even more dense, exuding an aura of indestructible terror.
Before this behemoth stood several dark silhouettes radiating terrifying soul energy.
These figures were entirely composed of powerful soul bodies—prodigies whom the various planes took great pride in, their strength and destiny unparalleled.
Yet, before the behemoth, these soul bodies were as fragile as dough, easily molded at its will.
Those dark figures, imbued with vast destiny, all stared at the behemoth with reverence. Some even trembled in terror, dropping to their knees and clutching their heads, overwhelmed by fear.
"So-called geniuses!"
"So-called children of destiny! In my eyes, they are nothing but trash!"
A voice as cold as the wind of death echoed from the behemoth’s mouth, shaking heaven and earth.
However, as Pantheon opened, the behemoth seemed to sense something. Without hesitation, it waved its countless tentacles, tearing through the void and vanishing at astonishing speed.
As they fled, powerful beings from ancient times, exuding overwhelming auras, emerged within Pantheon.
Their presence was terrifying—among them, the weakest had already reached the level of a Throne Celestial.
Even more notably, three Primordial Gods, whose mere presence twisted space itself, had appeared!
Seeing these formidable beings from Pantheon, Lord of Stars and War Goddess couldn’t help but smile.
These powerful figures had once been their most trusted comrades and the main force in resisting the Celestial.
Previously, in preparation for the ultimate battle, these powerful beings had chosen to quietly seal themselves within the fractures of time and space.
Now, seeing them once more, Lord of Stars and War Goddess felt as if it had only been yesterday.
"The old fire-loving geezer… I never thought you’d grow so old and withered!"
Upon spotting the terrifying red-haired figure who had emerged first from Pantheon, War Goddess immediately focused on him.
With just a glance, she recognized him—one of the Primordial Gods of the past, the unparalleled Fire God.
A being who wielded the Glazed World-Ending Flame, possessing the terrifying ability to destroy entire worlds.
Lord of Stars followed War Goddess’s gaze and soon laid eyes on Fire God as well. They had once fought side by side as comrades in arms.
"Fire God, it’s been a long time. I wonder if your Glazed Purification Flame still has any real power left?"
Faced with Lord of Stars’s question and teasing, Fire God let out a carefree laugh. The crimson flames above his head surged and danced like rolling fire.
"I may have aged, but my strength has only grown! If you want to know the power of my Glazed Purification Flame, you can test it yourself!"
As Fire God’s provocative words rang out, other deities in Pantheon turned their attention to him, teasing:
"You old fart, you’re as hot-tempered as ever—always ready to fight! If you have so much energy, why not direct it at the Celestial instead of bickering with us?"
"You’re bald, and you’re not even human—so why are you mocking me?"
Scoffing at the two Primordial Gods who ridiculed him, Fire God let out a dismissive snort, carrying the pride of a once-dominant being.
The bald elder and the behemoth continued to bicker with Fire God, playfully exchanging banter.
They had been old friends, and now that they were reunited, their camaraderie was stronger than ever.
After some teasing, Fire God, Trickster Lord, Soul Beast, Lord of Stars, War Goddess, and the other gods who knew each other exchanged heartfelt embraces.
"I remember when we last stood together, we were just reckless youths. Now, everything has changed, and the burdens of this war rest on our shoulders."
Standing at the forefront, Lord of Stars spoke with some sentimentality, as if recalling past memories.
The supreme beings who had remained in Pantheon took deep breaths, their gazes complex as they looked at Lord of Stars.
"It has indeed been a long time, but we have not forgotten you. And we have not forgotten our mission."
Hearing these words, Lord of Stars’s expression grew solemn.
Fire God and the other gods also grew serious. They had never once forgotten their purpose.
"Since you’ve summoned us all, does this mean the time to finally strike against the Celestial has come?"
Anticipation filled the faces of Fire God and the other Primordial Gods.
They had willingly sealed themselves in Pantheon because the Celestial was simply too powerful.
The Rebel Alliance had become increasingly cautious, knowing that if their Primordial God-level warriors ever reached a certain threshold, the Celestial would immediately detect them.
At that point, any attempt to overthrow the Celestial would be nearly impossible.
Thus, after their previous failed assault, they had developed a new strategy—some of their core members faked their deaths and vanished, waiting for the right opportunity to strike like a hidden blade against the Celestial!
"Lord of Stars, War Goddess, now that you’ve gathered us, what are our chances of success in this battle against the Celestial?"
Seeing that Lord of Stars and War Goddess had fallen silent, Fire God pressed further.
The odds of victory—this was the most critical issue.
"Fifty percent."

Lord of Stars and War Goddess exchanged a glance before giving an answer that left Fire God and the others shaken.
Fifty percent?!
Had they misheard?
Back when they first attacked the Celestial, their forces were vastly stronger than they were now.
Yet, they had suffered a devastating defeat, with only a ten percent chance of success!
And now, Lord of Stars and War Goddess were confidently claiming a fifty percent chance?
"Lord of Stars, War Goddess, you both know this isn’t a joke. How confident are you really?"
Seeing Fire God and the others in disbelief, Lord of Stars and War Goddess exchanged knowing smiles.
Then, Lord of Stars explained:
"If not for Owen, our chances of defeating the Celestial right now would be no more than ten percent. But because of Owen, everything has changed."
Hearing this, Fire God and the other Primordial Gods were utterly bewildered.
They could not comprehend it at all!
At this moment, War Goddess added:
"This is not an exaggeration. Owen’s talent and power speak for themselves. More importantly, Owen is now the Mountain Lord of Divine Mountain!"
Seeing the reverence that Lord of Stars and War Goddess held for Owen, Fire God and the others grew even more curious.
Lord of Stars and War Goddess were both immensely proud beings. For them to admire someone so greatly was extremely rare!
More importantly, because of Owen, their chances of victory had skyrocketed to nearly fifty percent!
"Mountain Lord of Divine Mountain? Wasn’t Divine Mountain destroyed long ago?"
After their initial shock, the gathered deities were completely dumbfounded.
They all knew how glorious Divine Mountain had once been, only to be annihilated for angering the Celestial.
Now, to learn that Divine Mountain had a successor—this would be a massive advantage!
But how had an outsider like Owen become Mountain Lord?
And how had he managed to unseal the surviving descendants of Divine Mountain?
It was inconceivable!
As Fire God and the other supreme beings learned more about Owen, their expressions turned numb with shock.
After all, Owen had risen from obscurity to become a top-tier mage—in less than ten years!
His rapid growth was beyond their comprehension!
"Is this Owen even human? He’s completely monstrous!"
"We’ve been sealed in Pantheon, and now a prodigy capable of shaking history has emerged…"
A trace of shock and complexity flickered across the faces of Fire God and the others.
Even though they had long awaited the rise of a new generation, Owen had surpassed all their expectations, leaving them with a strange sense of loss— Your next journey awaits at novelbuddy
As if the new era no longer needed them.
As their emotions grew more complicated, War Goddess and Lord of Stars suddenly thought of something.
They were about to reveal Leslie’s other identity—
But at the last moment, they remained silent.
