Mad God Evolution-Chapter 1644 - 1534: Courting Death

Chapter 1534

"By the way, Divine Sovereign, why are both light gates called Ascending God Gate? Is there any difference between them?"

The Mixed Silkworm Ancestor, undeterred by the imposing presence of the Haoyang God, curiously asked at this moment.

Glancing strangely at the Mixed Silkworm Ancestor, the Haoyang God rarely explained, "It’s nothing significant! The reason they’re both called Ascending God Gate is for the sake of fairness. Those with a higher realm naturally face greater challenges. Those with lesser strength, I won’t have them attempt the Venerable Sage-level light gate. Once someone passes through this light gate, they will acquire a trace of Divine Light, considered a fortunate opportunity for Proof of Godhood."

What?

Divine Light?

A chance for Proof of Godhood?

Immediately, everyone was unsettled, their eyes almost aflame with desire to rush in immediately.

Just then, another voice echoed, "So, can someone at the Sage realm challenge the Venerable Sage-level’s light gate? If the difficulty increases tenfold, does the reward increase tenfold as well?"

Who would dare to speak such arrogant words?

Countless Sages and Venerable Sages turned towards the voice only to see a handsome young man with his arms crossed, a faint smile passing across his face as he gazed at the shadow of the Haoyang God in the sky ahead.

Lv Zhong!

It was Lv Zhong!

Indeed, it was Lv Zhong!

Several Sages showed expressions of realization on their faces.

Exactly!

Among the many Sages present, only the peerless Mad God, Lv Zhong, would dare to speak this way.

And he had the credentials to challenge the light gate guarded by the Venerable Sage-level Fire Qilin.

"Interesting!"

The Haoyang God deeply looked at Lv Zhong standing in the crowd, his eyes flashing as he continued, "If a Sage can pass through the Venerable Sage-level light gate, the Divine Light they obtain will be a hundredfold more. There may even be additional benefits. Hehe, but I hope everyone considers their abilities carefully, or else, not only will you gain nothing, but you might also face death and obliteration."

The Haoyang God’s words were clearly not directed at Lv Zhong. Even though he was merely a shadow, he could sense the powerful strength Lv Zhong possessed.

Moreover, the reactions of countless Sages and Venerable Sages present had inadvertently revealed many secrets.

"But before the two light gates, there’s only one Fire Qilin guarding. With so many of us aiming to pass, doesn’t it imply that the later ones in the line will benefit more? How is such a situation resolved?" Knife Master also raised his own question.

The Haoyang God chuckled proudly, "Haha, rest assured. The Fire Qilin guarding the Ascending God Gate always maintains stable strength during each battle. Even if you annihilate one, another with the same power will resurrect to fight."

"Ah..."

As soon as the Haoyang God said this, some Sages and Venerable Sages, who secretly intended to pass later, were slightly startled.

This ensured that no one could pass without facing a challenge.

"Alright, everyone, enough chatter. Moreover, let me tell you, the earlier you pass, the more beneficial it is upon entering the Second Stage. So, young people, strive on..." A mysterious smile suddenly appeared on the Haoyang God’s face.

"Damn, what are we waiting for then? I’m going first..." Suddenly, the Mixed Silkworm Ancestor roared and was the first to charge towards the Venerable Sage-level Fire Qilin, "Devouring Sacred Dao, fix——"

Immediately, an extremely powerful devouring energy circle flew out with swift thunder speed, weirdly locking onto the guarding Fire Qilin.

The Fire Qilin wanted to resist with all its might, but at that moment, the Mixed Silkworm Ancestor smashed through the powerful barrier on the light gate with a sudden punch and laughed, "Haha, this First Stage is too simple, everyone, I’m going ahead..."

Without any hesitation, the Mixed Silkworm Ancestor was the first to charge through the light gate.

As the Mixed Silkworm Ancestor succeeded in passing, the restrained Fire Qilin immediately regained its vitality.

Obviously, the Haoyang God’s prior words were correct.

This Fire Qilin, when facing each Venerable Sage, could stably display the power of a Level 8 Middle Stage Sage.

"Damn, did this old guy really take the lead?" Knife Master cursed, his mind stirring as he decided to be the second to attempt the trial.

However, despite Knife Master’s quick reaction, someone else reacted even faster.

A streak of devil light surged forward, crashing into the Fire Qilin before countless Venerable Sages.

"Boom..."

The devil flame erupted skyward, and the Fire Qilin was directly blasted away. The owner of the devil flame, with a punch like thunder, brought a world-destroying power and smashed onto the already mended barrier of the light gate.

"Crack..."

A crisp sound echoed, and the barrier on the light gate shattered again, tumbling down like broken glass.

This Devil Sovereign also dashed directly through.

"It’s Hei Tian Demon Sovereign, he went in too..."

Someone shouted out in surprise!

At this time, the Sword Ancestor rose into the sky, his longsword shattering the Star River, leaving the Fire Qilin guarding the gate with no time to react, immediately annihilated.

The Sword Ancestor transformed into a sword, breaking open the light gate’s barrier once more.

Following closely, Hong Jun unleashed the Power of Annihilation with a punch, crushing the Fire Qilin, destroying the light gate’s barrier, and followed suit in entering.

Lotus Master, Insect Ancestor, Mechanical Heavenly Venerate, and other Venerable Sages successfully passed the trial one by one.

"Oh my god, so many Venerable Sages have successfully passed, is that Venerable Sage-level Fire Qilin really just for show?"

"Yes, it seems the Haoyang God is a decent person, not troubling anyone..."

"Haha, with nearly every Venerable Sage succeeding, it seems I shouldn’t have any problem passing too..."

...

The continuous success of the Venerable Sages in passing the trial not only instilled immense confidence among the remaining Venerable Sages but also quickly reassured more Sages.

More Venerable Sages and Sages began to eagerly prepare.

Almost all Sages and Venerable Sages started feeling fully confident.

They believed they had a strong hope of passing the trial.

But, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment!

Subsequently, one Level 8 Middle Stage Venerable Sage attempted the trial, causing countless Venerable Sages and Sages to shudder.

Facing a Level 8 Middle Stage Fire Qilin of the same rank, this Gold Element Venerable Sage was originally full of confidence, but was completely defeated in the first confrontation by an equally ranked Fire Qilin Venerable Sage. It wasn’t just a simple defeat but was truly annihilated by the Supreme Holy Fire, with both body and soul perished. Truly fallen into oblivion.

"Could this... this be an accident?"

Many Venerable Sages and Sages widened their eyes in disbelief, faces full of doubt.

Accident?

Only a few Venerable Sages sneered coldly.

The Fire Qilin guarding the light gate at Level 8 Middle Stage was definitely not simple. Its combat strength could at least rival a Level 8 Late Stage Venerable Sage.

If the attributes were countered, it was terrifying that even a Level 8 Peak Venerable Sage might fall.

Previously passing the trial were almost all the Powerful Strength of Level 9 Venerable Sages.

After all, in terms of both strength and reaction time, Level 9 Venerable Sages far exceeded Level 8 Venerable Sages, so their speed was also the fastest.

But this time, did a mere Level 8 Middle Stage Gold Element Venerable Sage think he could emulate the swift success of the previous Level 9 Sages?

This was truly courting death! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets on the Starting Point (qidian.com), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
