75: Forced pardon!

"The power... of laws..."

"Impossible... a mere mortal... how could he... master such power?!"

Anubis's majestic voice, for the first time, carried a hint of shock and disbelief.

Wang Yi ignored its shock. Holding the gold plaque, he stood tall and faced the two mountain-like statues, his voice resonant like a bell.

"Anubis!"

"Your judgment is over!"

"Now, it's our turn!"

"Get lost! Or, die!"

Wang Yi's words were filled with dominance and arrogance!

With the blessing of the "amulet of immunity," he seemed to have gained endless courage and confidence, daring to face a god directly—and even threaten one!

"Presumptuous!"

"Puny ant! You dare to provoke the majesty of a god!"

Anubis was thoroughly enraged by Wang Yi's words!

It let out a roar, and the golden scales instantly shattered!

It raised its massive rock arm again and smashed a fist down fiercely toward Wang Yi below!

This punch carried all the wrath of a god, as if it intended to punch right through the earth itself!

However, Wang Yi stood his ground, neither dodging nor avoiding it.

He simply raised the gold plaque in his hand once more, coldly.

Hum—

An invisible, supreme power of law spread out from the gold plaque.

The massive fist, carrying the momentum of a thousand thunderbolts, suddenly stopped less than ten meters above Wang Yi's head!

It was as if it had been blocked by an invisible wall.

No matter how Anubis roared or how much force it exerted, it couldn't move forward another inch!

"Do you see?"

Wang Yi looked at the massive fist struggling frantically yet helplessly in mid-air, the corner of his mouth curling into a cold arc.

"In the face of absolute rules, your so-called divine power is nothing more than a joke."

"No!!!"

Anubis let out an unwilling roar.

It could not accept that it, a god in charge of judgment and death, would be humiliated by a mortal in such a way!

Crack... Just then, a crisp sound of fracturing came from the fist frozen in mid-air.

A crack appeared on the rock arm.

Then came a second, a third... countless cracks spread frantically across its arm like a spiderweb!

Divine power backlash!

Its attack, which contained divine power, was forcibly blocked by the power of laws and could not be unleashed; ultimately, it recoiled back onto itself!

Bang!

With a loud explosion, the massive rock arm burst apart, turning into a sky full of rubble!

"Aow—"

Anubis let out a wail of pain.

And this was only the beginning.

The cracks began to spread from its severed arm to its entire body!

Its chest, its legs, its head... Crack! Crack! Crack!

Under the horrified gaze of all the Dragon Country team members, the two hundred-meter-tall divine statues crumbled inch by inch from bottom to top and collapsed, like two buildings with internal explosives detonated!

Rumble—

The earth shook and the mountains swayed!

Billowing dust obscured the entire sky.

When the dust cleared, the two once-invincible anubis statues that had brought them endless despair had completely disappeared.

Leaving behind only a ground full of rubble and two massive, bottomless craters.

They won.

They had actually, truly, defeated a god!

[Global Announcement: The Dragon Country Assault Team has successfully passed the 'Trial of God'!]

[The Dragon Country Assault Team has gained +20,000 personal points!]

[Dragon Country has gained +30,000 national fortune points!]

The golden global announcement once again flooded the screens frantically!

The Dragon Country Operations Center had already turned into a sea of joy!

"We won! We won! Hahahaha!" Li Guodong was so excited that old tears streamed down his face. He hugged Lin Zhan beside him, crying and laughing like a child.

Lin Zhan let him hug him, and a brilliant, heartfelt smile appeared on his usually serious face.

Su Yuan looked at the balance of national fortune points on the screen, which had skyrocketed to over 63,000, and also let out a long sigh of relief.

Trading twenty thousand points for thirty thousand, plus the survival of the whole team.

This was a massive profit!

Just then, the pile of rubble formed by the collapsed statues suddenly began to shake violently.

An ancient staircase made of black rock slowly rose from beneath the rubble, leading all the way up into the deep, dark interior of the pyramid.

The path to the true Main Burial Chamber had finally opened!

Wang Yi glanced at the amulet of immunity in his hand, which was now dim and covered in fine cracks, and tossed it away casually.

This thing was a one-time use item; it was useless after being used.

"Let's go."

He took a deep breath and was the first to step onto the stairs leading to the final battlefield.

It was a staircase that seemed to lead to hell.

The stairs were made of an unknown black rock, covered in signs of weathering. Stepping on them, one couldn't feel the slightest warmth, only a bone-chilling cold.

On either side of the stairs was bottomless darkness, like the mouths of two giant beasts waiting to devour people, ready to swallow them at any moment.

The twenty members of the Dragon Team formed a long line and climbed up step by step, weapons in hand, alert.

No one spoke; the atmosphere was suppressed to the extreme.

The joy of defeating the god just now had long been washed away by this eerie environment.

Everyone knew that what came next would be the most difficult and dangerous battle of this dungeon.

The final BOSS—the Immortal Pharaoh King!

This staircase was very, very long.

They felt they had climbed at least several hundred meters before they finally saw the end of the stairs.

It was a platform.

At the end of the platform was a massive burial door dozens of meters high, made of pure gold and inlaid with countless gems, luxurious to the extreme.

On the door, countless complex murals were carved, telling the life story of a great monarch.

From his birth to his battles, and then to his rule over the entire kingdom.

Finally, it showed him lying in a golden sarcophagus, receiving the worship of ten thousand people.

"It should be here."

Wang Yi looked at the golden door in front of him and muttered to himself.

He stepped forward, reached out, and gave it a gentle push.

Rumble—

The heavy golden door opened at his touch.

An ancient scent a hundred times more concentrated than anywhere else, a mix of gold, spices, and death, wafted from behind the door.

Behind the door was an incredibly wide and grand Main Burial Chamber.

The scale of the burial chamber was several times larger than even the central hall from before!

The entire burial chamber was made of gold.

Golden walls, golden floors, a golden dome... everywhere the eye could see was magnificent and luxurious to an outrageous degree.

Countless gold, jewels, and antiques were piled in various corners of the burial chamber like trash, emitting an alluring glow.

If an ordinary explorer came here, they would probably faint on the spot from excitement over this overwhelming wealth.

But the members of the Dragon Team, looking at this treasure enough to drive the whole world crazy, had no greed in their eyes.

Only solemnity.

Because, in this sea of gold, they felt an unprecedented, heart-palpitating aura of death.

Their gazes passed over the mountains of gold and silver treasures and landed in the deepest part of the burial chamber.

There was a high platform made of white jade.

On the platform sat an incredibly gorgeous sarcophagus carved from a single piece of sapphire.

The sarcophagus was crystal clear throughout, emitting an eerie blue light that reflected across the entire burial chamber in a ghostly blue hue.

And that heart-palpitating aura of death was precisely what was emanating from that sapphire sarcophagus.

"The Pharaoh King... is inside."

Wang Yi's voice was somewhat raspy.

He could feel that an incredibly terrifying existence was sleeping within that sarcophagus.

The energy fluctuations of that existence were even stronger than those of the two anubis statues just now!

"Is everyone ready?"

Wang Yi turned back and glanced at his teammates behind him.

"Ready for battle at any time!" Chen Hu carried the high-frequency battle blade, his eyes burning with intense fighting spirit.

Although the previous battle had cost him dearly and he had even suffered significant injuries, under Li Bingyao's healing and the powerful self-healing ability of the t-virus serum, he had mostly recovered.

The other team members also raised their weapons one after another, showing their determination through their actions.
