Chapter 893: Conditions for Ascension

Chapter 893 Conditions for Ascension

“Water Clone!

“Time Stinger Arrow!”

“Whoosh—”

Li Yi attacked as well.

With the Thunder God’s Protection in effect, his ATK was a massive 500% its initial value. The two Time Stinger Arrows hit Mephisto and drained it of all its health in an instant, forcing it out of its hostile state.

The boss battle was over in an instant…

This was the unorthodox method. Quest Mode and Li Yi’s own ridiculous skill led to such shocking results.

“Squeak! Squeak!”

Dolly was glowing all over like a Super Dolly, but she seemed dissatisfied that the battle had ended prematurely. She flew over to Mephisto and continued to attack it.

Mephisto was the warden of the Tower of Remorse. While it had lost, it would not die like other monsters did. It simply left battle mode and returned to being a regular NPC.

Super Dolly’s attacks were completely ineffective against it. Its body had become transparent again, and physical attacks could not reach it at all.

Mephisto said in a deep voice, “Perhaps you are the one my lord has been looking for.”

A black teleportation door appeared behind it, and then its body began to fade gradually.

“Enter. My lord the Death God is waiting for you inside.”

Mephisto vanished.

“Squeak! Squeak!”

Super Dolly protested furiously, but Li Yi just stepped forth and grabbed her, forcefully dismissing her.

If they reached the 100th floor of the Tower of Remorse following conventional means, players would have to face the Death God’s test at the very end. The Death God was a powerful god, so of course it would not attack so easily. Instead, it would summon its pet to fight the players, and if the players won, then they would pass the test, and the Death God would give them a Class Change Crystal as their reward.

Players could choose their classes, and theoretically, almost every class had a superior version that players could change to. For example, Archers could use the class change function to upgrade themselves to Sharpshooter, King of Beasts, or Master Hunter, according to their paths.

Li Yi was not the only one in King of Pantheon to choose all three paths at once. Many players did the same, but they just were not as good and flashy as Li Yi was.

However, it did not matter if players chose one path or all three. All players could only change their clashes once. Regardless of how many times they cleared the Tower of Remorse, the Death God would only ever give each player one Class Change Crystal.

However, there was a legend that gained a lot of traction among the players. It said that if someone cleared the Ultimate Challenge Mode, as in if they cleared every floor of the with an SSS grade, the final boss they met would be the Death God himself as opposed to his pet.

Nevertheless, not a single player managed to pass every floor with an SSS grade in the eight years of the past life, so this legend was never proven or debunked. Naturally, that meant that the rewards that came with it were also nothing but speculation.

Li Yi walked into the black teleportation door and entered a Void Dimension.

This area had no land, sky, sunlight, or foliage. It was nothing but an endless void.

Li Yi did not stand in the Void Dimension for too long before the Death God appeared, donning black robes.

The Death God was enormous in size, more than ten meters tall. Its entire body was wrapped up in the black robe and its face was obscured. Add that to the black smog surrounding it, and it looked rather eerie and mysterious.

There was a pitch-black monster cat with black wings and three eyes perched on the Death God’s shoulder.

This was the Death God’s pet, the Soul Reaper known as Cunning Haniq.

According to the legends, this monster cat was in charge of all the souls that the Death God collected. When players fought it, they could also see the monster cat release trapped souls and use them as its lackeys.

“The Thunder God has strengthened you. Is this the will of the Pantheon?”

The Death God spoke coldly. It did not do anything else, but a wisp of pale blue light was pulled away from Li Yi’s body anyway. He had lost the Thunder God’s Protection.

The quest was in action!

Far from being scared, Li Yi was ecstatic. In the past life, he had seen the Death God countless times, so of course he knew how this guy was famous for being long-winded. However, it would never attack a player.

The pale blue light flew toward the Death God automatically and was absorbed in an instant.

“Hmm, this is the power of the Ancient Thunder God, not that annoying one on Mount Pantheon.” Li Yi could not tell if the Death God was talking to him or itself.

“Meoww—”

Just then, the monster cat Haniq that was perched on the Death God’s shoulder gave Li Yi a mean look and began to lick its paw.

In the past life, Li Yi had personally experienced the terror of this pet, which was about the size of a monkey, countless times. He could climb from the first floor to the 100th floor, but when he fought Haniq, the odds were always against him.

The Death God said, “Human, show me the item you obtained from the Ancient Thunder God!”

Its tone was cold and hard.

Li Yi did not hesitate. He took out Lightning, his Tool for Ascension, and threw it over.

“Swoosh!”

Lightning automatically flew straight at the Death God, after which it sank into those black robes and vanished.

“It really is the Ancient Thunder God’s Heart of Heritage. What formidable power, much stronger than that useless trash on Mount Pantheon.”

The Death God gave it a few words of praise, and Lightning reemerged from the black robes, floating toward Li Yi at a leisurely pace.

“Human, do you know what the Ancient Thunder God’s Heart of Heritage is?”

Li Yi shook his head. When he asked this, even if he did know, he would still shake his head. The best way to trigger the quest was to be a quiet listener.

“Everything is finite. Even the gods on their high pedestals will fall one day. In that case, human, let me ask you. What in this world lasts forever?”

Li Yi continued to shake his head. He really did not know the answer to that one…

“Mortals will die, and gods will fall. Even I, the one known as the God of Death, will have my life end one day. When that happens, a new Death God will appear, and I will fall into the Underworld once more, becoming the new Death God’s Soul Soldier.

“In this world, only one entity can claim to be eternal, and that is— the Ruler of God!

“The Ruler of God has infinite Divine Power. It can change spatial laws as it likes, creating and destroying lives at a whim. In this world, the Ruler of God is omnipotent, and it will never fall, so it may be called eternal.”

Li Yi chuckled. “The Ruler of God may fall one day too. It’s just a matter of time.”

Li Yi could hold his silence about other matters, but when it came to the Ruler of God, he had to speak.

After all, his current highest aim was to kill the Ruler of God and take its place. If the Death God said that the Ruler of God was eternal and undying, isn’t it saying that he would not stand a chance?

No way he would let that slide!

“A matter of time?

“Hahahahahahaha…”

The Death God could not help but burst out laughing.

This time, Li Yi could tell that the Death God’s laughing voice was actually a woman’s.

Could it be that just like the Evil God, this Death God was also a girl?

“Foolish mortal, have you heard of the Ancient God Wars? Do you know what it was like back then?

“Back then… the creatures of the Pantheon Continent were as foolish as you are. Unlike you, however, their foolishness gradually turned to intelligence. While they started off hopelessly weak and fragile, they slowly began to learn powerful spells and martial techniques. Some of the stronger ones even cultivated themselves and gained the power to fight the gods.

“The foolish creatures defeated the race of demons that the Ruler of God itself had created. The intelligence these foolish creatures displayed struck the gods’ hearts with fear, until one day, the War God was surrounded by several dozen of these foolish creatures and fell to their hands. That was the trigger for the Ruler of God’s decision to end the world.

“Back then, the gods were divided into two factions. One was led by the Ruler of God. They are the ones who now stand proudly on Mount Pantheon. They advocated for destroying the world and starting over, all to stop the foolish creatures from challenging the authority of the gods.

“The other faction was led by the Evil God, and I was one of them. We stood on the opposite side, and we did everything we could to stop the Ruler of God!

“The Ancient God Wars began, and many gods killed each other. Back then, there would be gods falling into my Underworld every day…

“Human, do you know how strong the Evil God was?

“Before she was given the title of Evil God, the Pantheon unanimously recognized her as the next Ruler of God!

“Before she was given the title of Evil God, she had another name, that of the strongest War God!

“Once, I had thought… that she was the strongest among the gods. That was until I saw the Ruler of God attack with my own eyes…”

When the Death God spoke of the past, her body seemed to quiver in her black robes. After a long silence, she continued, “That was also when I reluctantly believed that the Ruler of God represented eternity. No one could challenge its authority.”

Li Yi asked, “Didn’t you gather souls and reopen the door to the Underworld all so you could fight the Ruler of God?”

“Of course not…” The Death God was silent for a moment because she suddenly changed the subject. “The power of the Ancient Thunder God is immense. Human, do you know how to become a real god?”

“I don’t.”

“After the Ancient God Wars, when the Evil God was banished into a different dimension, she scattered the Gods’ Hearts all across the world. She did it to give herself a fighting chance, because… be it the Ruler of God or the other gods, they had to obey one ancient rule: they could not show their true forms on the Pantheon Continent.

“More than a thousand gods died during that war. The Evil God scattered all of their God’s Hearts, so naturally, many mortals were fortunate enough to obtain some.

“However, even though so many mortals had received Gods’ Hearts, how many of them actually became a god using the Hearts’ power?

“I am certain that not a single one made it!”

Her emotions must have gotten the better of her, because the Death God no longer hid her voice as she spoke of the past. Her voice was definitely that of a woman.

“Do you know why no mortal has ever become a god with the power of the Gods’ Hearts?”

“Are you saying we can’t become a god even with the Hearts?” Li Yi could not help asking.

The Death God said with a laugh. “Of course not. With a God’s Heart, you can indeed become a god. However, there is one other condition to fulfill.”

“What is it?”

“It’s very simple.

“All you need is a word from the Ruler of God. With that, you can become a god!” The Death God’s declaration was shocking.
