145: Kill the gods instantly!
"Forget it, as long as this Undead Lion can become Lord Anubis's Chosen One, so be it."
Sphinx thought to himself.
Anyway, it only pledged allegiance to Anubis, the God of Death. Other Dominators were on the same Rank as it, and whether they found a Chosen One was none of its business.
Moreover, perhaps under the leadership of this Necromantic Giant Serpent, these undead creatures could achieve better growth.
It might even be possible for them to gain the ability to pass the trials earlier, leading to the emergence of more Chosen Ones!
"Undead Lion, do you want to try Anubis's trial?"
Sphinx communicated with Chen Mo telepathically:
"I believe that with your strength, even if you can't pass all the trials at once, you can still achieve good results."
"Furthermore, the trial rewards left by Lord Anubis are very generous. As long as you can pass the sixth trial, you can become a Chosen One and have the chance to obtain treasures like the Shore Flower and the Styx Water."
"These treasures can help you comprehend the Origin energy of death, preparing you for advancing to the Calamity Realm."
Sphinx coaxed him patiently.
Hearing this, Chen Mo felt a bit strange.
Why did this Sphinx seem so eager for him to participate in the Golden Pyramid's trials?
Just like the Sky Curtain Ice Spider wanted him to enter the Inner World!
But Chen Mo still nodded, calmly saying:
"Alright."
The Sky Curtain Ice Spider had told him that the key to advancing to the Calamity Realm was comprehending Origin energy.
This required using some precious treasures or performing special rituals.
These treasures were not available in the Main World.
After Awakening the Suanni Bloodline, he was no longer a single ice-elemental Extraordinary Creature.
If he could comprehend the Origin energy of death, he could also advance to the Calamity Realm!
At that time, the panel rewards and the refreshed quality of the self-discipline challenge would undoubtedly bring him a huge improvement!
Although Chen Mo could feel that Sphinx was impatiently eager for him to participate in Anubis's trial, potentially with ill intentions.
However, after advancing to the King Realm and Awakening the Suanni Bloodline, his premonition of danger became extremely keen.
When a certain thought arose in his mind, if there was danger, he would receive an early warning.
For example, when the Sky Curtain Ice Spider previously wanted him to enter the Inner World, Chen Mo felt a slight warning of danger.
However, this warning of danger was not strong.
It indicated that there might be danger in the Inner World, but the degree of danger was not high.
To be safe, Chen Mo did not rashly enter the Inner World. Instead, he planned to complete the Totem Lion and then use his "followers" to observe it first.
And now, when he had the thought of participating in the Golden Pyramid trial, no premonition of danger appeared.
This indicated that there would be no danger inside the Pyramid.
Compared to other Pyramids, the central Golden Pyramid was even more majestic and magnificent, over a thousand meters high, radiating dazzling brilliance.
Under the gaze of all living beings, Chen Mo slowly walked into the Golden Pyramid.
Upon entering the Pyramid, he found himself in an extremely vast temple!
Countless towering pillars rose from the ground, with a spacing of over a hundred meters between each pair, a truly magnificent sight!
The interior of this Pyramid was actually a Small World!
At the high point of the temple was a statue over a hundred meters tall, with a jackal head and human body, draped in golden ribbons, seated on a throne.
On its forehead was a Golden Eye, and in its left hand, it held a Golden Scale. One side of the scale held a Golden Feather, and the other side held a heart.
This statue was precisely Anubis, the God of Death.
In ancient Egyptian mythology, there were stories related to Anubis.
Legend has it that he was the God of Death, as well as the guide and Guardian of the dead. Only with Anubis's protection could the dead find refuge.
The Golden Scale in his hand was called the Scale of Judgment, capable of weighing the good and evil of living beings.
In legends, Anubis would place the heart and Soul of the deceased against the feather of Ma'at, the goddess of justice and truth, on the left and right sides of the balance.
If the deceased's heart was lighter than Ma'at's feather, it symbolized that the deceased was a good person in life and could enter Reincarnation; otherwise, they would be devoured by demons.
The Anubis Statue before him also held the Scale of Judgment.
This meant that many myths and legends could potentially be true.
On both sides of the Anubis Statue, Chen Mo also saw eight golden statues ranging from 30 to 100 meters in height.
Some of these golden statues looked familiar.
They were precisely the Dominators of the other nine Bronze Pyramids, including the Golden Giant Serpent Apophis from before!
Of course, the two statues on Anubis's left and right were unfamiliar.
One had a lion's head and a human body, and the other had a bird's head and a human body.
In terms of Aura alone, these two statues were even comparable to Anubis!
"Welcome to the Anubis Trial."
"The trial consists of 9 stages in total."
"You will receive rewards for passing each stage."
At this moment, a majestic and ancient voice appeared in Chen Mo's mind, like the whisper of a god.
Unlike the Bronze Trials, the Golden Trials had 9 stages!
"Choose whether to enable recording mode."
"If recording mode is enabled, your entire trial process will be live-streamed."
Chen Mo thought for a moment and chose to make it public.
He had sufficient confidence in his own strength.
Appropriately displaying his strength would make it easier for the undeadFamily he had just subdued to submit.
"Trial Stage One is about to begin."
"Please, trial participant, prepare yourself."
The ancient voice in Chen Mo's mind continuously echoed.
At the same time, he felt a force of rules descend upon him.
It suppressed his life Rank to a Low-Rank King Realm.
Unlike the rule force within the Apep Pyramid, this rule force was more overbearing, suppressing even the physical quality improvements brought by the increase in life Rank!
Chen Mo glanced at his attribute panel and couldn't help but smile.
Because he found that this rule force did not suppress the effects brought by the Self-Discipline Panel titles.
The effects of titles like Taotie Lion and Berserk Lion were not suppressed!
Furthermore, the strength brought by the Suanni Body Tempering Technique was also not suppressed!
His overall combat power only dropped from 210,000 to 160,000.
It didn't drop much.
In a sense, the rules of this trial were actually very beneficial to him!?
Chen Mo looked around.
The trial was about to begin.
He didn't know what the content of Anubis's trial would be.
Would it be similar to the previous Black Mist Beast, or other challenges?
At this moment, the Golden Giant Serpent statue on the far right suddenly emitted a rumbling sound.
Chen Mo looked over.
Two clusters of golden flames suddenly rose from the giant serpent's pupils, and then the golden flames spread over the entire giant serpent statue.
Wherever the flames spread, the Golden Scales on the giant serpent radiated brilliant light, and a chaotic mist rose around it.
"Roar!"
After the giant serpent let out a roar, it moved forward, its golden chains covering its entire body rubbing against the ground, erupting in a series of sparks.
This statue had actually come to life!
"Lord Apophis!"
Outside.
Seeing this scene, the Necromantic Giant Serpent Leader couldn't help but exclaim.
Unlike the Golden Giant Serpent formed by death energy in the final trial of the Apep Pyramid, the Golden Giant Serpent before them was more lifelike and even larger!
More importantly, it was also covered in Lord Apophis's exclusive weapon, the golden chains!
Furthermore, the chaotic mist swirling around it was Lord Apophis's unique characteristic!
It was as if a true god had descended!
The Necromantic Giant Serpent race instinctively wanted to prostrate themselves; after all, this was the god they once worshipped.
"Caw!"
The Frost Nethercrow stopped them.
These Necromantic Giant Serpents were now the army of the Ice Lion Kingdom, and the only one they needed to pledge allegiance to was Your Majesty!
The Necromantic Giant Serpent Leader remembered its current identity and raised its head.
However, it felt that the chances of Chen Mo successfully passing the trial were not optimistic.
It never expected that the first stage of the Anubis trial would require facing the Apophis Golden Giant Serpent!
Their once-worshipped deity!
As expected of the Golden Pyramid's trial, its difficulty was beyond their imagination!
The first stage of the trial was already harder than the final stage of the Bronze Pyramid's trial!
"Hiss~" (Your Majesty might have a hard time even passing the first stage of the trial.)
"Caw!" (Just watch! Your Majesty will personally defeat your former god!)
The Frost Nethercrow said calmly.
Its eyes were filled with unparalleled confidence.
Even more confident than when it participated in the trial itself!
The Undead Lion looked around and found that the Ice Birds, Frost Lions, and other Extraordinary Creatures of the Ice Lion Kingdom all had eyes filled with absolute trust.
In their eyes, Your Majesty Lion King was invincible!
This made the Necromantic Giant Serpent Leader somewhat stunned.
What kind of "bewitching drug" had this Undead Lion given itsFamily to make them so trusting and worshipful!
Not far away, Sphinx was naturally also observing this trial.
As the Guardian of the Pyramid Secret Realm and a major general under Anubis, he understood the intensity of Anubis's trials.
The Apophis Giant Serpent statue in the first stage was forged from Netherworld Soil, and although it only contained three drops of Apophis's essence Blood, it perfectly inherited Apophis's power.
It possessed power comparable to a mythical offspring of the same Rank, and this statue also had a certain degree of intelligence, understanding some tactics.
The Undead Lion before him was also a mythical offspring; it shouldn't be easy for it to pass.
"So weak!"
Just as these undead creatures were marveling at the power of the Apophis Giant Serpent statue, Chen Mo thought to himself.
After a simple observation, he quickly obtained information about this Golden Giant Serpent statue.
"Apophis Golden Statue"
"Rank: Low-Rank King"
"Physique: 1380"
"Agility: 2600"
"Strength: 1405"
"Divine Soul: 1628"
"Abilities: Requiem, Black Mist Beast, Death Charge, Curse, Death Gaze."
"Overall Combat Power: 27310~35204"
"A statue Puppet molded with Netherworld Soil as the embryo and the essence Blood of the Peak Totem-Rank Golden World Giant Serpent Apophis as the Soul, capable of exerting the strength of a Low-Rank King."
This Golden Giant Serpent statue looked intimidating, but its actual combat power was only slightly higher than that of an ordinary King Realm creature.
It was almost the same as the Black Abyss Unicorn Demon Jiao he had encountered before.
Even if he was suppressed, his current overall combat power was still as high as 160,000!
That was five times that of this statue!
It's stable.
"Roar!"
After the trial began, the Golden Giant Serpent let out an angry roar, then burst out with astonishing speed, charging towards Chen Mo.
This massive statue actually erupted with extreme speed!
Apophis was known for its speed, and this Golden Giant Serpent statue clearly inherited this characteristic well.
At the same time, a swirling chaotic mist permeated around Apophis, completely obscuring the vision of other creatures.
In the eyes of the other undead creatures, the Golden Giant Serpent's figure disappeared into the vast mist.
Only the sound of chains and scales rubbing against the ground announced that this giant serpent was gradually approaching the Undead Lion!
Chen Mo easily captured its movements with his excellent dynamic vision.
In less than a second, covering nearly a thousand meters, the giant serpent was already in front of him.
Using the cover of the chaotic mist, the golden chains on the Golden Giant Serpent's body stabbed at Chen Mo from different directions.
Facing the Golden Giant Serpent's attack, Chen Mo remained unhurried, calmly using Suppress Evil.
This was a large-scale rule-based ability.
So, in the next second.
The Golden Giant Serpent's figure suddenly appeared from within the chaotic mist.
At this moment, it was less than 50 meters away from Chen Mo!
Eight golden chains were also within reach!
However, these golden chains could not advance any further!
They, along with the Golden Giant Serpent, were pressed to the ground by an invisible immense force, unable to move forward!
Immediately after, the seemingly incredibly hard Golden Scales on the Golden Giant Serpent's body developed spiderweb-like cracks under the immense pressure!
"Suppress Evil"
Chen Mo mentally marked the Golden Giant Serpent statue as an "evil entity," so it was mercilessly suppressed.
"Roar!"
The Golden Giant Serpent roared, its deafening cry indicating the immense pressure it was currently enduring.
It pushed its internal power to the extreme, trying to break free from this immense force.
But it was useless!
As Chen Mo fully released the Suppress Evil Domain, the cracks on the Golden Giant Serpent's body became more numerous and dense!
The Golden Scales cracked one by one, like shattered pottery!
The golden flames in the Golden Giant Serpent's pupils burned fiercely, desperately mobilizing the death energy within its body.
But it was ultimately futile; under the Suppress Evil Domain, the death energy within its body completely became stagnant water, without any fluctuation.
Finally, under the Undead Lion's indifferent and calm gaze, the Golden Giant Serpent was slowly disintegrated into fragments, and then turned into dust.
Instantly killed.
Nothing more to say.
Seeing this scene, all the undead creatures, including the Sphinx, were stunned.
This was a statue of a god!
The Undead Lion didn't even move, yet it instantly killed it!?
"Hiss!?" (Ah? Is Your Majesty really that fierce!?)
The Necromantic Giant Serpent opened its mouth wide and whispered to the Frost Nethercrow next to it.
"Caw!" (Calm down~ Your Majesty's strength is beyond your imagination!)
The Frost Nethercrow nodded.
"Caw~" (Work hard! In the Ice Lion Kingdom, as long as we strive, we all have a bright future!)
"Hiss!"
The Necromantic Giant Serpent nodded vigorously.
It suddenly understood where the Undead Lion'sFamily's worship of the Undead Lion came from.
It was absolute strength!
