Inside the Shadow Cabinet, Huo Rong had already sensed the consciousness he had separated, and in his excitement, he began to assault the seal set by the Guardians.
"Hahahaha! I've finally waited for this day! You vile creatures, prepare yourselves to face the wrath of my revenge!"
Huo Rong's crazed laughter made the Hidden Ones, a branch of the Maltusian people responsible for guarding him, incredibly tense, and they immediately began frantically reinforcing the seal.
They had experienced Huo Rong's terror over billions of years!
Once he was free, there would be no other path for them but complete annihilation.
Although isolated from the outside World, they still had some awareness of the battle happening outside the Planet, but they did not know the final outcome.
They only prayed in their hearts that their kin outside could repel all invading enemies, preventing Huo Rong from having a chance to escape.
However, just as they were worrying about both, the door that had been sealed for billions of years was burst open!
Metron, riding the mobius chair, appeared first before their eyes, followed by Zod and his Kryptonian warriors who streamed in.
"Hmph! There is no code in this World that I, the God of Knowledge, cannot crack."
That door, which required a special code to open, finally gave Metron an opportunity to display his talents.
Originally, according to Zod's idea, if all his enemies were dealt with, a door shouldn't stop him. He would smash it open even if he had to use his fists.
But how could Metron, when it was finally his turn to shine, allow such an opportunity to be ruined by a brute like Zod?
So, he hastily declared that he could open the door.
Using the mobius chair's super computing power, Metron only took a few minutes to open the door.
"Hmph! If it were me, I would have smashed it open long ago. Why do you have to be so slow and fussy?"
However, Zod was not impressed by this.
He believed that anything that could be solved with absolute strength was simple, and Metron insisted on making simple things complicated, which was simply superfluous.
Their attitudes did not affect Huo Rong, who was possessing the Power Ring. At this moment, he directly detached from this body, eager to return to his main body.
"Our kin have failed!"
When they saw Zod and his group, this thought instantly appeared in the minds of all the Hidden Ones present.
"For the peace of the Universe, we must fight them to the death! Even if we die, we cannot let them release Huo Rong to endanger the Universe!"
Up to this point, these kin, who had been tricked by the Guardians who stripped themselves of emotion into staying in the Shadow Cabinet, still believed that their kin sealing Huo Rong was to achieve complete peace in the Universe.
Immediately, the Hidden Ones raised their hands, and One by one energy rays blasted towards Zod and his Kryptonian warriors.
However, the Maltusian people were never skilled in combat; their accumulated knowledge and wisdom as an ancient race were their foundation.
But it was clear that these abandoned individuals had lost even their most important assets, so their attacks seemed so powerless in the eyes of Zod and his Kryptonian warriors.
Zod merely raised his hand casually, and his Kryptonian warriors swiftly eliminated these poor souls who were still living a lie until their death.
"Huo Rong, how do we break the seal to release your main body?" Zod called out to the power ring hovering in the air.
"You don't need to interfere. As long as these Guardians are not maintaining the seal, it can be easily destroyed from the outside."
Saying this, the power ring emitted its final light, transforming into a green beam that directly struck the seal.
"Crack!"
As the sound of the seal shattering echoed, multicolored light burst forth from within.
At the same time, throughout the entire Multiverse, the power of the emotional spectrum began to riot.
Each Corps felt the disturbance.
On Planet Korugar, Sinestro, the leader of the Yellow Lantern Corps, felt the restless fear energy in the Yellow Lantern Power Battery, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
He had previously used the power of the Lantern Ring to establish absolute rule on his Planet, an act that violated the Guardians' prohibition against using Green Lantern Corps equipment, resources, and status for personal gain.
Consequently, he was stripped of his Lantern status by the Guardians and exiled to the Antimatter Universe.
However, it was in that place that he collaborated with the Weaponers of Qward, the native inhabitants of the Antimatter Universe, to create the first Yellow Lantern Ring, exploiting the Green Lantern's yellow weakness.
He used this to fight the Green Lantern Corps, but he still failed against overwhelming odds!
After being captured, he was imprisoned by the Guardians in the Green Lantern Central Power Battery, where he also discovered the true reason for the Green Lantern's yellow weakness: his other cellmate, Parallax, and he also comprehended the power of fear behind the yellow energy.
Later, after escaping Oa and returning to Korugar, he officially created the complete Yellow Lantern Ring, and the Sinestro Corps officially rose.
However, before he could formally wage war against the Green Lantern Corps and the Guardians, a series of events in the Universe forced him to pause, but now the anomaly in the fear energy made him vaguely feel that it was time to completely destroy the Green Lantern Corps and the Guardians!
At the Orange Lantern outpost in the Vega System, Larfleeze clutched his Orange Lantern Power Battery like a precious treasure.
"You are mine, and only mine!"
As for the other colored Lantern Corps, they were all on high alert.
And on Planet Oa, the Guardians, each with a face as sour as if they had eaten a pile of dung, felt the surging seven-colored light on the book of oa.
"They really released Huo Rong!"
"What should we do? Huo Rong will surely come for us first for revenge."
"Now our Green Lantern Corps is severely weakened, unable to defeat even those Kryptonian warriors, let alone Huo Rong!"
"If he is truly determined to seek revenge on us, then even if we detonate the central power battery, we will take him down with us."
"Perhaps it's not that bad. Don't forget, there's another monster imprisoned in the central power battery. We might be able to use its power to fight Huo Rong."
At this moment, the words of one Guardian caused the others to show expressions of understanding.
That's right, they still had Parallax, the embodiment of the power of fear.
"Then, who can become the vessel for this monster?"
Another question was posed, but after only a moment of silence, all the Guardians involuntarily thought of one name.
"Hal Jordan!"
"Hal is the most promising Lantern Ring wielder I have ever seen. His willpower might allow him to not be completely corrupted by Parallax."
Once they had a strategy, the Guardians immediately summoned Hal.
They then selectively informed Hal about their feud with Huo Rong and the matter of Parallax, telling him that only he could save Oa, save the Green Lantern Corps, and save the Universe which was about to fall into turmoil.
Hal, already enraged by the Slaughter of his Corps brothers and friends by Zod and his Kryptonian warriors, agreed without much thought.
He needed stronger power to protect his friends and companions, and he would spare no effort, even if this power was very dangerous.
