Three days later, Michelle, High Priestess Catherine, War God O'Brien, and King of Killers Cesar, the four Deities, under Beirut's orders, headed straight for the southern seas. Then, under Beirut's lead, they entered the Necropolis of the Gods.
There, Michelle saw the statues of the Four Divine Beasts, and also the countless statues of magical beasts of different races.
Through the passage, Michelle and the others arrived at the twelfth floor of the Necropolis of the Gods.
From the first floor to the eleventh floor, they posed no threat to Deities at all. Even the Abyssal Blade Demons on the eleventh floor that blotted out the sky and covered the earth were nothing but a joke in front of Deities.
Through the original novel's understanding of the eleventh floor and Linley's explanation, Michelle discovered that each floor had a unique characteristic, which was that it corresponded to the seven Elemental Laws and the four Overgod Laws.
For example, the fifth level Scarlet Flame Demon corresponded to fire-type laws. The killing environment created by the countless Blade Demons on the eleventh floor corresponded to the rules of destruction that represented slaughter and destruction.
The eleventh floor corresponded to eleven different Laws. It had to be said that Beirut had put a lot of effort into the layout of the Necropolis of the Gods. After the 11th level, regardless of which element one cultivated, if they were lucky, they would have a breakthrough or even become a god.
After the eleventh floor, there were Deities. A single Elemental Law or Overgod Law was no longer of much use to Deities.
"Teacher, which level did you reach?”Michelle asked as they stood in front of the passage to the twelfth floor.
"Fourteenth level. "That's a God over there. We're not a match for him.”The High Priest replied.
"Yes." Michelle nodded.
"Let's go." Michelle was the first to rush into the tunnel.
Whoosh. The space on the 12th floor was a world of the sea. The sound of seawater could be heard, and a sea breeze with a fishy smell blew past.
"A thousand years. You guys again? Eh, there's actually a new face." A gentle voice sounded, and a huge whirlpool appeared in the sea. A mermaid with a beautiful face and green hair appeared in front of everyone. She had the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fishtail. There was a golden scale between her eyebrows.
"Nasiya, as usual, stop us for a while and let us pass.”The High Priest spoke first.
"Okay, okay, okay. I know without you saying it. However, this handsome boy, are you interested in playing with your sister for a few days? Your sister is so lonely here.”The mermaid named Nacia said to Michelle with a flirtatious look.
"Miss, aren't you going to consider me?”Cesar spoke. From Nacia's attitude, he could tell that she was old friends with O'Brien and the High Priest, who had entered the Necropolis of the Gods many times.
"It seems that you've only recently reached the Deity level. However, I can smell an aura of an old man who won't die, just like O'Brien. I have no interest in this old man." Nacia looked at him with disdain.
"Teacher, it seems like you two have a good relationship. Fine, I won't kill you.”Michelle suddenly said.
"Kill? Little brother, you have such a big tone. Come, let me teach you and give you some pointers.”Nacia covered his mouth and laughed. A huge wave rose and swept over.
"I won't kill you, but I can still give you some punishment.”A mighty pressure spread out, and instantly, the sea area around Michelle and the others turned into a volcanic area. In an instant, the sea water evaporated, and the thick mist churned. It was dyed red by the lava, and a red hell appeared in this small area of the sea.
The instant Michelle's domain was released, Nacia's expression changed drastically. However, how could a mere Demigod like her resist the domain of a God?
She couldn't move and was being roasted by the domain. Even her God power felt like it was being burned away by the domain. Her God Body, which she had cultivated for many years, was slowly becoming scorched. At this moment, Nacia felt that she was walking toward death.
"Boom!" The strange domain's pressure sank, and after pressing down on the sea for dozens of meters, it suddenly dissipated. Even so, it still made Nasis spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Thank you, thank you for showing mercy.”Having walked on the edge of death once, Nacia no longer dared to be impudent. He retracted his seductive attitude and respectfully said.
"Where is the passageway?" Michelle asked directly.
"At the bottom of the sea, my lord." Nacia quickly replied.
"Take us there." Michelle said.
"Sir, please follow me." Nacia immediately led the way. The seawater parted, and a passage leading to the bottom of the sea appeared in front of everyone.
"Michelle, what you're doing is a little too much.”The High Priestess sent a voice transmission in dissatisfaction.
"I just didn't want to waste time. If it wasn't for your friendship, I would have killed her long ago.”Michelle said. The soul of a Divine level expert was still very useful to Michelle.
"When did you become so murderous?”The High Priestess was a little disgusted. After all, she cultivated the Law of Life, and her nature was more peaceful and natural. Although she would inevitably kill on the path to becoming a god, she always had a purpose. Michelle, on the other hand, would kill without hesitation.
"The world of the strong is nothing but the survival of the fittest.”Michelle did not mind.
"Sigh." The High Priest couldn't say anything and just sighed.
After passing through the passageway, the thirteenth floor appeared in front of everyone.
The ground was filled with all sorts of colors, and there were ravines everywhere. White bone spikes that were as big as mountains stood in the center of the ground, overlapping each other layer by layer to form a huge bone castle.
Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the colorful ground was filled with undead and demonic corpses. They were dripping with blood, and their skin was either greenish-gray, green, or red. However, they all had one characteristic, and that was that their skin was rotten, and a thick stench of corpses was spreading out.
As if sensing that someone from the outside world had entered, the bone castle in the center suddenly moved. Countless bone spikes that surrounded the castle blossomed like flower buds. Suddenly, a thick black light shot out from the center.
"Small tricks." Facing this black light that was emitting a thick aura of death and even had soul fluctuations, Michelle sneered. She struck out with her palm, and a scorching aura exploded out. A red divine blade light slashed towards the black death light.
There was no earth-shattering explosion. The black death ray dissipated the moment it touched the red blade light. The blade light continued to attack and directly smashed into the bone castle.
"Rumble!" Red flames rose up, and the white bone castle collapsed under the attack of the red sword light. At the same time, the gas burned fiercely.
"Who are you?" A black figure suddenly flew out of the flames.
He had a head of green hair, and his entire body was pitch-black and shiny. His eyes were burning with black flames. Behind him, a pair of gray wings flapped gently. Every time it flapped, a layer of ripples would spread out.
"Catherine, we meet again.”The person immediately turned his gaze to the High Priest." It's been so many years, but you're still so beautiful.”
"Radam, cut the crap. Either let us go over or fight again.”The War God couldn't hold back his temper any longer.
"An expert who trains in the Edicts of Death?”Michelle did not care about their grudges. Her eyes lit up, and a blue figure flew out of Michelle's body and pounced on the other party.
"I'll let you be the first stop of my trial by fire.”Michelle's divine water clone didn't give his opponent a chance to waste his breath. He immediately attacked with a profound attack.
"Arrogant." Radam was also furious. Gray light lit up, and the wings on his back directly separated, turning into two battle swords in his hands.
Michelle did not want to be outdone. She immediately used her divine sword, Deep Blue. At the same time, countless water elements gathered, causing the entire battlefield to become moist. At the same time, a wave of power that was constantly floating spread out, as if it was a world of water.
"Clang!" The sword slashed out, and a binding force distorted and made Ram's defense uncomfortable. He could not even unleash half of the power he had accumulated.
Suddenly, the two blades in Ram's hands collided, and a gray stream of light shot out. It passed through the flowing liquid on Michelle's body and entered her body.
"Ah!" Within Michelle's mind, a grey energy struck Michelle's divinity, directly attacking Michelle's soul.
"Hahaha." Radham laughed loudly, and the blade in his hand slashed towards Michelle without hesitation. The surface of the blade was covered in black light.
"You're courting death." After taking the soul attack, Michelle managed to raise her spirits and quickly put the sword in front of her to block the attack.
"Buzz!" The divine sword twisted and Michelle was sent flying. However, the moment she was sent flying, Michelle's body twisted and disappeared into thin air.
" Whoosh." Suddenly, the water elements on the battlefield became even more concentrated. Drops of water began to condense.
"Water element?" The black flames in Radmu's eyes flickered as he suddenly slashed at the void.
Blue light shone and met one of Radem's rays. However, in the next moment, a figure appeared behind Radem. Countless dewdrops gathered and spun, turning into a water crystal that attacked Radem.
"I expected it." Radam smiled proudly. With a backhand strike of his other saber, he directly split the water crystal apart.
"As expected, the offensive power of the water element is still far too lacking, especially in terms of the profound mysteries that he has comprehended.”The dense dewdrops twisted, and Michelle's figure appeared in the distance, looking at Ram helplessly.
"You're very strong. You can actually block my soul attack.”said Ram. At this moment, he was also a little shocked. He had become a Deity from the Edicts of Death, and he had cultivated the Edicts of Death that were more inclined towards soul attacks. In addition, attacks from the Edicts of Death had always been stronger than attacks from the Laws of Death. Thus, very few Demigods could withstand Radam's soul attacks. He did not expect the other party to be able to continuously counterattack after suffering his soul attack. It could be seen that the other party's soul did not suffer too much damage. After all, using the profound mysteries of the Laws required a portion of mental energy and spiritual energy.
Michelle nodded indifferently. Radam's attack was indeed very strong, but it was not very effective against Michelle. Not only did he have the boost from his cheat, which could reduce the damage of soul attacks by half, but he also trained in the defensive profound mysteries of the Laws of Water. Although he hadn't mastered the Profound Mysteries of Roundness and Softness, his defensive abilities were truly impressive.
"It's about time. You should die too.”Michelle suddenly said. And then, Michelle's divine water clone flew directly towards her true body, fusing with it as one. The pressure of a God suddenly erupted forth.
"God!" Radmu's expression was extremely ugly, and a trace of fear appeared in his heart.
"Die." Michelle said indifferently. The Deep Blue Divine Sword lit up once again, and a fiery red sword light shot out. Wherever it passed, the space rippled, and a scorching aura filled the air. At the same time, explosions sounded continuously.
"No!" Radham did not even have time to beg for mercy before he was annihilated by the sword light.
The sword light dissipated, leaving behind an ancient ring carved with a human-like face and a black divine persona that emitted a deathly aura.
"A Deity who trained in the Edicts of Death died just like that?”Cesar was stunned.
"Michelle, do you know that this Ram has been guarding this floor for thousands of years? However, because he trains in the Edicts of Death, and moreover in the aspect of soul attacks, O'Brien and I have never been able to do anything to him. It was also in the last two thousand years that we made some progress in our cultivation. In addition, we fought many battles and became familiar with each other. Just like Nacia, we were allowed to go through a fierce battle within the boundaries of the Sovereign's Laws before we were allowed to go over.”The High Priest said.
"Hmph, that's because he likes you.”War God O'Brien snorted.
"It seems that there are many stories behind this.”Cesar teased.
"Let's go. You should know where the passageway is, right?”Michelle was not interested in these gossips. After killing Radham, Michelle felt that the strength of her soul had increased a little. However, these were not the most important things. After the bitter training and the battle just now, Michelle's progress in the Profound Mysteries of Circular Softness had reached 75%, and she was getting closer and closer to mastering them. At the same time, because her progress in both profound mysteries had reached more than 50%, the Essence of Water and the Profound Mysteries of Circular Softness had also begun to fuse. Her progress was at 3%.
"The tunnel is right below the bone castle. The next level was the fourteenth level, and the guardian was a God. We only stopped at this level.”The High Priest said.
"When we first encountered that God, if we hadn't encountered him as soon as we left the tunnel and had been able to return in time, we probably would've all died.”O'Brien said with lingering fear.
"Then, you can stay here.”Michelle was confident that she could defeat a God. In fact, if the God didn't have many fused profound mysteries, Michelle would be able to instantly kill him with her hundredfold increase in divine power. However, Michelle's most important goal was to improve herself through battle. In this case, she could not use her cheat. Under such circumstances, she was evenly matched with the other party. Under such circumstances, it would be difficult to protect the High Priest and the others. After all, it was far too easy for a God to kill a Demigod. This was especially true for someone like O'Brien, who had fused with a divine spark, or someone like Cesar, who had just entered the Deity level. Basically, a single Godrealm would be enough to suppress them and instantly kill them.
"Yes." O'Brien knew his own limits, and he nodded.
"No problem. It would be best if we can stay in peace for ten years.”Cesar said lazily.
"Let's do as we agreed." The High Priest said.
Michelle quickly entered the passage.
"Eh, it's actually a newcomer.”As soon as she walked out of the passageway, Michelle heard a voice.
Michelle narrowed her eyes and looked at the person in front of her.
He was dressed in loose cotton clothes, with a head of hair that was casually parted. His eyes were gentle and did not have a hint of hostility. Coupled with the small wooden house behind him, he seemed to be an ordinary and amiable middle-aged man.
Soon, Michelle discovered that the space on the 14th floor was actually a huge village. There were all kinds of races in this village. Orcs, humans, elves, and even magic beasts. These races were living in peace. What surprised Michelle even more was that many of them were Saints.
"How is it? Isn't my level very special? The Sovereign had a rule that the guardians of every level had to guard the passageway and not allow outsiders to pass through unless they died or were defeated by the other party.? In addition, as a guardian, he could also kill outsiders and make a small wish to the Sovereign.”the middle-aged man said.
"Oh? So what are you going to do?" Michelle narrowed her eyes as she spoke. Her eyes were filled with cold killing intent.
Michelle realized that although this huge village seemed peaceful, and every race was living in peace, their eyes were dull. They had obviously lost their minds. It was not an exaggeration to describe it as a walking corpse. The middle-aged man in front of him was clearly not a good person.
"You have two choices. Either you stay in this village and become a member of the village, or you die!”As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man suddenly attacked. His sleeves exploded, and his right hand suddenly turned into a huge red fist. He punched towards Michelle, causing the air to explode and space to ripple.
"Profound Mysteries of Explosion!" Michelle's eyes lit up, and she pulled out her divine sword without showing any sign of weakness, retaliating.
"Boom!" The entire space shook, and the collision between the sword and the fist was like a volcanic eruption. A powerful shockwave spread out, directly affecting the village not far away. In an instant, the entire village was facing a natural disaster.
Many races and living beings were directly turned into dust, and even some Saints were no exception.
"You will die." His clothes were torn apart, and the middle-aged man who looked like a normal human suddenly transformed into a ten-meter-tall behemoth. His body was red, and his muscles were bulging like rocks. On his back, sharp stone cones were arranged in a radiating pattern. Its head was like a dragon's head, and there were rings of red rocks around its neck.
"Roar!" The man suddenly disappeared from his spot. The next moment, Michelle felt a huge force hit her body.
"Puff!" Michelle was sent flying, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. At Michelle's original position, the giant red monster stood there, its golden eyes looking at Michelle with ridicule and violence.
"Molten Stone Beast?" Michelle said.
"Not bad. But you prefer to call me Lord Morpheus.”Morpheus laughed wildly.
"Your strength is not bad. You are qualified to be my opponent.”Michelle smiled, but her eyes were cold and stern.
The Molten Stone Behemoth was a creature of the Yulan continent, but it had disappeared over a hundred thousand years ago. Once it reached adulthood, it would reach the Saint-level, a powerful magical beast of the fire and earth elements. Michelle had seen these things in the Imperial Library during her free time. She hadn't expected to encounter them today, and they were all Gods.
"Whoosh!" The next moment, Michelle turned into a streak of fire and charged at the Molten Beast.
"You overestimate yourself." Morpheus was extremely confident in himself, and he threw his huge fists at Michelle.
"Eh?" Morpheus suddenly felt a powerful spinning force that forcefully twisted the power of his fist. At the same time, a dazzling light lit up, and an intense burning and pain came from his fist.
"I want you dead!" Morpheus roared in rage. His fist grew bigger and his movement speed increased rapidly. The two fists collided and Michelle was about to be crushed into a meat patty.
"It's not certain who will die." Michelle's cold voice rang out, and a burst of explosive energy erupted. Volcano shadows appeared, and in the next moment, they all erupted. A vast and surging power descended, unstoppable, forcing Morpheus to retreat. At the same time, a dark blue sword with red light flashed past, stabbing into Morpheus 'body.
"Bang!" Countless rocks were sent flying, and Morpheus 'huge body was pushed back. Michelle was also pushed back, and her face was ugly.
"Hahaha, you want to kill me with your broken sword?”Morpheus laughed. Not long after, the huge mouth that had been blown up in the chest was filled with countless rocks that flew back.
"If only I had a Highgod artifact.”At this moment, Michelle had a strange desire for a good divine weapon. Although the deep-blue divine sword in his hand had already become a Demigod artifact under the nurturing of his divine power, and was not far from becoming a God artifact, it had only been nurtured for a short period of time. In terms of power, it was far from being comparable to Michelle's current level of power. This caused Michelle to think of the Bloodviolet sword in Linley's hand. That was a Highgod artifact, and a divine artifact that had been nurtured by a Seven Star Fiend for trillions of years. If she had a divine sword, Michelle was confident that without using her divine power, she would be able to use it as well. When paired with the profound mysteries of the Laws, a single sword strike was enough to slay the Magma Behemoth.
"Again." Michelle stubbornly fought with Morpheus again.
"You actually didn't use your divine power." Soon, Morpheus noticed the abnormality of his opponent, which made him furious and shocked. Soon, Morpheus discovered something that made him even angrier and more frightened.
He discovered that his opponent was actually using fused profound mysteries, and their power was growing stronger and stronger.
He, Morpheus, had only discovered the fusion of profound mysteries in the past thousand years because he hadn't gained any insights into the other profound mysteries. In the end, after working so hard for so long, forget about fusing them, even finding an entry point was extremely difficult. This was even harder than the entry level of the other profound mysteries.
And now, an existence who had already fused profound mysteries had appeared before him, and he was actually able to fight him without using divine power, only using Saint-level power. He was only at a slight disadvantage.
Could it be that the power of a profound mystery fusion was really that great?
Thus, Morpheus was tempted, but he soon became furious. He knew how difficult it was to fuse profound mysteries. He had not had any clue even after a thousand years. After that, he was jealous. Since such a genius had appeared here, he would kill him.
After making up his mind, Morpheus 'attacks became more and more fierce and terrifying. He alternated between the Profound Mysteries of Explosion and the Fire Element. He was extremely skilled. Coupled with his talent as a Molten Beast, his powerful body and strength, this was an eye-opener for Michelle, but it also gave her a lot of pressure.
Michelle felt as if her body was about to collapse after taking a few punches from Morpheus. At the same time, Morpheus 'use of the Profound Mysteries of Explosion was extremely ingenious. Waves of energy exploded at Michelle's weak points.
If this continued, Michelle felt that she would be defeated before she could even injure the other party.
Fortunately, because of his original body, Michelle could use the Demigod power of her divine water clone. At the same time, she could also use the profound mysteries of the Laws of Water, greatly increasing her defense. As a result, the pressure on Michelle was greatly reduced. However, there was a loss. Although Michelle no longer had the pressure of life and death, her combat strength had decreased significantly. The speed at which she fused the profound mysteries of Fire and the Profound Mysteries of Volcano had also decreased. But at the same time, because his true body was using the profound mysteries of the Laws of Water, his progress in the Profound Mysteries of Roundness had increased.
One hour, two hours, five hours…the more Michelle fought, the more energetic she became. She used the fused profound mysteries of fire to attack, while her main body used the profound mysteries of water to defend. Occasionally, her main body would use the divine water clone's divine power to deal with danger. In addition, her cheat would reduce the amplification of her spiritual energy, divine power, and soul energy when using the profound mysteries of the Laws by half. This gave Michelle enough capital to fight Morpheus.
Morpheus wasn't weak either. His massive body represented his massive divine body and the sheer amount of divine power he had. His defense also allowed him to ignore Michelle's normal attacks.
The battle between Michelle and Morpheus lasted for a month. He didn't eat, drink, or sleep. One was doing it for cultivation, while the other was doing it for dignity and to kill the other. No one was willing to be outdone.
The entire fourteenth floor was thrown into chaos by the battle between the two of them. The peaceful village had long since been reduced to ruins by the shockwaves of the battle. Many races and creatures had died, and many of them were Saints. Their deaths gave Michelle a large source of souls. Although these souls were nothing to Michelle now, they still added up, especially when there were so many Saints. This allowed Michelle to fight for such a long time, but not only did her soul power not decrease, but her soul also strengthened a little.
"It's almost done." Michelle suddenly said. Immediately after, the divine power of a God erupted forth. Sword light flashed, and Morpheus didn't even have time to react before he was turned into ashes. The divine power of a God, amplified by the cheat, surpassed the divine power of a Highgod. Combined with the attack of the fused profound mysteries of fire, the fourteenth floor instantly exploded.
A spatial rift that was over a thousand meters long suddenly appeared. The entire fourteenth floor shook. The mountains, rivers, and boulders were all swallowed by the rift. The entire space was a scene of destruction.
Suddenly, a powerful force appeared out of thin air and pressed down. The spatial cracks quickly closed up, and the space on the 14th floor returned to normal. However, this place was already a desolate ruin.
"Passageway." After experiencing so many disasters, everything hidden in this space was gone, and the passage leading to the 15th floor was revealed to Michelle.
"Phew." Michelle put away Morpheus 'Godhead and a pair of gloves that belonged to a God Equipment. In the next moment, she entered the spatial tunnel.
Not long after Michelle entered the passage, a black figure appeared on the 14th floor," His potential is beyond my expectations. If he can meet my requirements before Bluefire reaches Paragon, then I'll give him that thing. He hadn't thought that after not patrolling the Gebados Plane for so many years, a genius like Bluefire would actually appear.”
