------------------------------------------------
However, besides that, Khorne was eager to strike for one crucial reason…
Although Arthur Harrow and Trevor Slattery successfully opened a Warp Rift in Celestial Heliopolis by burning their lives, and established a stable connection with the Warp.
Due to the unique attributes of the Four Chaos Gods themselves, when they directly appear in the physical Universe, they are strongly repelled by the laws of reality, making it impossible for them to stay for long periods… In fact, when they are powerful enough, they cannot even descend in person, only invading the real World through possession or blessings.
And the dimension where Celestial Heliopolis is located, although different from Earth, is still within the scope of the physical Universe and the laws of reality.
Therefore, Khorne, descending in his true form, is constantly enduring the powerful repulsion and constraints of the laws of reality.
The reason he has been able to persist for so long is, on one hand, because he accumulated enough power by devouring the souls of Egyptian Gods, greatly enhancing his strength.
On the other hand, slaanesh, Tzeentch, and Nurgle have been continuously releasing their divine power within the Warp, helping Khorne resist the strong repulsion of the laws of reality.
This is also the fundamental reason why the three of them did not appear directly like Khorne.
Karl had actually anticipated this point when he formulated the plan to invade Celestial Heliopolis with Tzeentch.
In his opinion, with the current strength of the Four Chaos Gods, they have not yet reached the terrifying level seen in the warhammer 40k World, so there is a high probability that they can descend in their true form into the physical World.
But when their strength reaches the level of a single Universe or a Metaverse, they probably won't be able to exploit this bug and descend in person into the physical World anymore…
"Heh heh, they truly are a bunch of brainless guys."
Seeing that Osiris and the other Gods had been successfully lured out of Sun City, Khorne decided to drop the act and quickly put an end to it, planning to wipe them all out in one go!
To avoid unnecessary casualties on his side, he then ordered Bruise to lead several demon legions to retreat to the rear.
Roar—
Facing the tide-like charge of the Heavenly Realm Warrior legion, Khorne let out a fierce roar, instantly unleashing a powerful and unparalleled psychic shockwave visible to the naked eye, centered on him and radiating outwards.
Although Khorne rarely uses magic and almost never bestows these complex and convoluted spells upon his followers.
This does not prove that he cannot use magic.
On the contrary, the magic of Slaughter possessed by Khorne is by no means inferior in level to Tzeentch's magic.
It's just that he prefers simple, crude pure violence and combat; only the sound of gushing blood and breaking bones are the best prayers for him!!
Puff, puff, puff—
The Heavenly Realm Warrior within a radius of several hundred meters, and those miscellaneous Gods who were charging at the forefront, instantly turned to ashes the moment they collided with the psychic shockwave released by Khorne.
If Osiris and the other Nine Pillars Gods members had not intervened in time, using their divine power to cast a solid energy shield in front of everyone, successfully resisting the psychic shockwave released by Khorne, perhaps all the Heavenly Realm Warrior and miscellaneous Gods would have been annihilated in that psychic attack.

"Charge! Kill that demon god…"
But surprisingly, whether it was due to the encouragement of the Gods or the influence of the psychic shockwave that drove them mad, facing death, the remaining Heavenly Realm Warrior were not frightened by the tragic deaths of their companions; instead, they became increasingly aggressive.
An inexplicable rage simultaneously appeared in everyone's hearts, including Osiris and the other Gods.
It was as if only by hacking the Khorne opposite them into a puddle of flesh could the rising fury in their hearts be appeased!
"Huh? What's with this emotion…?"
Toth, the God of Wisdom, possessing the strongest brain, was the first to notice the abnormality of the anger surging in his heart.
At the same time, through consciousness resonance, he felt the same anger and roars from the linked Heavenly Realm Warrior.
This situation was clearly not normal!
Toth looked around at the Gods, whose eyes were red and who looked as terrifying as bloodthirsty demons, and his body trembled slightly as if he had thought of something dreadful.
"Damn it, some mysterious power must be influencing our minds, otherwise, as Gods, our consciousness would never be dominated by anger and recklessness like those ordinary Heavenly Realm Warrior."
Toth's guess was correct; the sudden anger in their hearts was actually a special passive ability of Khorne's attacks.
During combat, it would cause calm enemies' minds to gradually fill with endless rage, slowly losing themselves in the pleasure of slaughter, and finally becoming Khorne followers dominated by the desire for slaughter.
"My Lord God King, quickly activate your divine power to resist the anger in your heart; this is a trap deliberately set by that demon god…"
Toth, while activating his divine power to expel the inexplicable anger and irritability from his heart, loudly reminded Osiris and the others.
"What?!"
Osiris was instantly shocked; he never expected to have been ensnared by the opponent without realizing it, so he quickly activated his divine power to resist Khorne's power eroding his mind.
Most of the Gods also stopped in their tracks, their faces filled with panic as they began to "expel their inner demons."
But for the Heavenly Realm Warrior charging at the forefront and the weaker miscellaneous Gods, Toth's reminder was clearly too late.
Those Gods and Heavenly Realm Warrior were too angry to stop their advance, directly becoming separated from Osiris and the others behind them.
They were the first to rush before Khorne, wildly unleashing enchanted weapons and magic onto Khorne's body as if they were free.
Although such attacks could not cause any substantial damage to Khorne.
How could Khorne, who hadn't personally experienced the pleasure of slaughter for a long time, miss such a good "first taste" opportunity?
He raised his blood-red greatsword and swung it down at the charging Heavenly Realm Warrior legion.
Rumble—
The ground suddenly trembled violently, as if an earthquake of magnitude 8 or higher had occurred, shaking the Earth.
"What? This… How is this possible?"
Toth looked in horror at the battlefield ahead, which was completely obscured by the rising dust. He felt that at the moment the ground shook, thousands of Heavenly Realm Warrior suddenly "went offline" from his consciousness resonance link.
This meant that all those Heavenly Realm Warrior were instantly killed by the enemy's single strike.
Such terrifying combat power instantly made Toth's heart tremble.
But even with the most extensive wisdom in the Heavenly Realm, he could not think of a way to reverse the precarious situation at hand.
At this moment, in the dust-filled area, several Gods who had narrowly escaped death, fearlessly led the surviving Heavenly Realm Warrior to charge before Khorne.
However, just as they were about to use their swords and magic to vent the rage surging in their hearts as much as possible.
Unexpectedly, in the next instant, before they could even strike, they were all instantly killed by a casual slash from Khorne.
Whoosh—
At this moment, a figure suddenly shot into the sky, then transformed into a scorching Sun, attacking Khorne below with burning Sun Fire… It was none other than Atum, the Sun God of Dusk.
And almost at the same time, Nut, the dark-skinned God of Sky, also ascended into the sky, releasing a terrifying hurricane-like tornado…
Sekhmet, the Lioness Goddess, directly transformed into a raging giant lion about a hundred meters tall, her sharp claws heavily smashing towards Khorne.
Osiris, furthermore, used countless vengeful souls from the Underworld to condense a Death Spear with extremely strong curse power, throwing it towards Khorne's chest.
For a time, various fierce attacks, like a torrential storm, came one after another, all striking Khorne's massive demonic body.
Hurricane, flames, lightning, acid rain, soul spears… Numerous magical elements converged to form a gigantic magical vortex, continuously bombarding Khorne's demonic body.
But what filled the Gods with dread and despair was that the colossal figure at the center of the storm was not harmed in the slightest, nor was it restrained by such fierce attacks.
Instead, he grinned and wielded the greatsword in his hand, cleaving the Sun in mid-air into two… The dazzling light instantly dissipated, and Atum's severed body then heavily crashed down from the sky.

Whoosh—
Khorne fought with increasing ferocity, showing no intention of stopping, and once again wielded his blood-red greatsword, striking Nut, the God of Sky, who was floating in mid-air continuously releasing hurricanes, with lightning speed.
"Mother…"
Osiris and Nephthys were instantly shocked at the sight, as Nut was their mother, so they quickly activated their divine power, creating an energy barrier in front of Nut, attempting to block Khorne's attack.
Crack—
Puff—
But the energy barrier that the two struggled to uphold could not impede the blood-red greatsword in Khorne's hand at all.
The moment the sword collided with the energy barrier, the barrier completely shattered.
And Nut, caught off guard behind it, had no time to dodge or escape, and was split in half just like Atum.
The second member of the Nine Pillars Gods was officially offline!

The next to be slain was Sekhmet, the Lioness Goddess.
She was recognized as the fiercest hunter in the Egyptian Pantheon, and even the most irritable Set, the God of War and Desert, would never dare to engage her in close combat during his lifetime.
But just as Sekhmet, who had transformed into a hundred-meter raging lion, attempted to pounce from behind and bite off Khorne's neck, the latter, with terrifying speed that the naked eye could not capture, swung a sword backwards without even turning his head.
Puff—
The blood-red greatsword instantly cut through Sekhmet's steel-hard skin, and then a huge lion's head was thrown high into the air, while the mountain-like magnificent lion body heavily crashed to the ground.
Golden blood gushed out from the severed neck like a fountain, and in the blink of an eye, it gathered into an unusually striking golden pool of blood beneath the headless corpse.

He's gone mad with killing, Khorne has truly gone mad with killing!!!
"How could this be?"
Seeing two members of the Nine Pillars Gods killed in an instant… and both of them were members of the original Nine Pillars Gods, their strength countless times greater than the newly ascended Horus.
But even so, they could not survive the attack of that dog-headed demon god opposite them.
Such a brutal sight and such a powerful enemy could not help but make the Gods present feel a deep sense of suffocation.
However, Khorne, who was somewhat "in a hurry," did not give the Gods enough time to fear, continuously slashing with his blood-red greatsword, harvesting the lives of the Gods as easily as cutting vegetables.
"Time Delay!"
Toth, the God of Wisdom, released his divine power, slowing down the flow of time in the area where Khorne was located as much as possible.
Although its effect was far inferior to Tzeentch's Time Stop, it successfully slowed down the speed at which Khorne's blood-red greatsword descended.
The Gods' faces all showed joy at the sight, but in the next second, a special arrow made of green Fire, as if appearing out of thin air, accurately struck Toth's glabella.
The green Fire did not burn Toth's body; instead, it flashed and disappeared, directly entering his mind.
But immediately after, a pulsating Flame of Change appeared on Toth's forehead.
And at the same time, a similar pulsating blue Flame of Change appeared on the foreheads of all the Heavenly Realm Warrior whose brains were previously linked to his through consciousness resonance.
"Tsk tsk… I didn't expect such an unexpected gain?"
In the Warp, Tzeentch, who was originally enthusiastically "educating" Isis, showed a look of great interest on his face after sensing the changes that had just occurred to Toth and the others.
"Interesting, as expected of the strongest brain in the Heavenly Realm; this will save us a lot of time!!
