Chapter 1821: Death Trial
The God of Fire, who was originally very angry, has now calmed down, because they were in the wrong and the evidence was seized. The temple gods here all knew the temper of the God of Punishment. If the God of Punishment investigated, even the temple gods would suffer, and there were also temple gods imprisoned in the divine prison.
The God of Punishment and the God of Demon Slayer walked in front, leading Ren Tianyong and other exhausted disciples to the highest level of the Demon Slayer Temple. The God of Demon Slayer seemed indifferent to the reward for getting first place, as if he knew what the reward was.
While walking on the road, Wang Jinshi sent a voice message to Shen Xiang: "What happened just now? When did you learn the God-killing Sword Technique? You learned it too fast! To reach your level, it would take at least a year or two, not to mention that you don't have our bloodline!"
"I don't know either. Anyway, I used it in a hurry just now!" Shen Xiang responded. He was also extremely surprised about the sword just now, because the effect was beyond his expectations. If he wanted to use it again now, he might not be able to perform it so perfectly.
Wang Jinshi continued to transmit her voice to Shen Xiang. She couldn't understand what Shen Xiang said: "How could you not know? I know this God-killing Sword Technique best. How could I just use it so casually in a hurry?"
Shen Xiang also found this very strange. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that he was able to display super strong swordsmanship suddenly because of using a sword before. This was all because of that divine power!
The godhead that Baihu used to create the God of Killing Heart is still very mysterious. Although he asked Feng Yujie, Feng Yujie couldn't tell! The Heavenly Refining Technique also came from that godhead.
Shen Xiang was somewhat worried. Qi Shi had told him before that he had completed the refining of the divine power, but now the divine power could still generate this kind of power, allowing him to suddenly display a very powerful God-killing sword technique. It seemed like a good thing, but if he couldn't figure out what was going on, in Shen Xiang's opinion, this was a hidden threat.
"Could it be that there is a God-killing Sword Technique inside that Godhead? Who is the owner of the Godhead? He actually practices two forbidden divine skills at the same time!" Shen Xiang felt that it was necessary to figure this out, otherwise, for the first Godhead he merged with, it would be a hidden danger, and it could even destroy him.
"Let's talk about it later! But I still want to thank you. If you hadn't taken action just now, I would have been exposed. By then, the matter of my Sword God father might have been brought up!" Wang Jinshi was extremely grateful to Shen Xiang.
"Hehe, no need to thank me. I'm used to this kind of thing anyway!" Shen Xiang didn't think much of it. The time to go to war with the Hell Temple was getting closer and closer. The Demon Slayer God had already declared war twice before, and soon he would be able to declare war for the third time. If the Hell Temple didn't respond, he could legally force a war.
Shen Xiang and his companions arrived at the top floor. There was nothing there except a huge empty stone chamber with a large skylight. The sunlight shone in, making the stone chamber bright.
"What is the reward?" Fat Old Five looked around. There was nothing. The reward was not what he had imagined.
The Demon Slayer suddenly became serious and said, "You may not be able to accept this reward, and you may choose not to accept it when the time comes!"
Seeing the disdainful faces of those disciples, the Demon Slayer God said sternly: "Listen to me, the outside world says that my first batch of disciples had ten, and the four you see now are the youngest disciples! The other six died because of this reward. The strength of these six brothers is similar to mine, but..."
"They...how is it possible? Dad, didn't you say that they went out for training and went to the forbidden land of Taishen? They were there to carry out the tasks you assigned them. They are much stronger than us, how could they die?" Zu Chao was struck by lightning. They were all junior brothers and sisters, and they rarely saw those six disciples!
The Demon Slayer let out a long sigh: "You four were the second batch, they were the first batch, but they are no longer here!"
The God of Punishment patted the God of Demon Slayer on the shoulder and said, "Several of my sons went the same way. After all, the young people are braver than us!"
Seeing the lonely and sad look of the God of Punishment, Ren Tianyong and the others were even more shocked. The sons of the God of Punishment must be very powerful, but they had never heard of them!
"The reward for first place is to let us die?" Xiao Chou suddenly clenched his fists and became a little excited: "I understand, this must be an extraordinary trial!"
The God of Punishment stared at Xiao Chou and said, "Yes, do you know why there is no Temple of Hercules in the Realm of Gods? Because Hercules passed that test!"
Wang Jinshi suddenly whispered, "Is this a trial from the Supreme Temple?"
Ren Tianyong and Zu Chao had all heard of the Supreme Temple, but Xiao Chou was probably the only one who hadn't. Shen Xiang had only heard about it from Wang Jinshi some time ago.
The God of Punishment nodded and said, "You have been given a chance to enter the Supreme Temple, but you must pass the test. If you fail, you will die!"
The Demon Slayer turned around, with his back to Shen Xiang and the others: "If you go with your current strength, to be honest, you will definitely die! The last time the gods' temples competed, the ones who went were the top ten disciples of the temples, but this time only the top one can go! At that time, all the outstanding disciples from powerful temples such as the God of Wealth Temple and the God of Fire Temple did not come back, they all died!"
"So you have to think carefully! This is your only chance. Otherwise, you will have no chance to enter the Supreme Temple in the future!"
Xiao Chou asked: "Why do we have to enter this Supreme Temple? I don't understand, will we become very powerful after entering?"
The God of Punishment said: "The Supreme Temple is also called the Great Temple. Only by entering the Supreme Temple can one become a Great God. As for why, I don't know! In short, no matter how hard we have tried over the years, we cannot become a Great God! There is only one way, only by entering the Supreme Temple!"
"I'm not going!" Wang Jinshi shook her head and looked at Shen Xiang. From her eyes, she didn't want Shen Xiang to go either. She knew that Shen Xiang possessed the Supreme Divine Bone, so Shen Xiang would definitely have this idea, because by entering the Supreme Divine Temple, he could quickly become a strong man.
Even such a powerful God would die if he went there, let alone a Mysterious God who had not yet become a God. So Ren Tianyong and the others immediately stated that they had no intention of doing so, because they were only Mysterious Gods now, and even if they became Gods, they would only be lower-level Gods!
Now everyone was looking at the couple Zu Chao and Zu Ming. They had already discussed it through voice transmission and shook their heads! Just now they saw that the God of Punishment and the God of Demon Slayer were grieving because they had lost their disciple and son, so they no longer planned to go.
Except for Shen Xiang and Xiao Chou, everyone else has decided not to go!
"Oh my god!" Shen Xiang and Xiao Chou suddenly shouted.
"No!" The Demon Slayer God shouted sternly. Xiao Chou possessed the blood of Hercules, and Shen Xiang had practiced the Heavenly Refining Technique and the God-Slaying Sword Technique. They were both good seedlings. If they went, there would be no chance of survival. Although Shen Xiang possessed the Supreme Divine Bone, his current strength was still far from enough.
Xiao Chou curled his lips and said, "I thought we could make the decision ourselves!"
Chen Xiang said with a firm face: "We want to give it a try!"
"You are risking your lives. You must not go!" The Demon Slayer God glared at Shen Xiang and Xiao Chou.
Just as the Demon Slayer God finished speaking, the entire Pantheon suddenly shook. The Punishment God frowned and whispered, "Demon Slayer, if the Supreme God Palace knows that you stopped your disciples from going to the trial, you should be very clear about the consequences!"
The Demon Slayer God snorted, with a look of anger. He didn't expect that Shen Xiang and Xiao Chou, the two weakest ones, would actually decide to go to that kind of place. Even the strongest Zu Chao and the others didn't dare to do that!
The God of Punishment took out two golden tokens and handed them to Shen Xiang and Xiao Chou: "Drop your blood, and then the trial will begin. If you cannot reach the trial site within ten years, you will die!"
Xiao Chou took the token with a smile, and immediately dripped blood, and said with a smile: "There are still ten years, which is enough!"
There are still ten years left, which is just a blink of an eye in the eyes of these gods who have lived for many years, but for Shen Xiang, it is enough time for him to prepare himself and challenge the trial of the Supreme Temple.
After Shen Xiang dripped blood on the golden token, he could use his spiritual sense to view the map inside. He and Xiao Chou had to go to that trial field within ten years!
"Your trial grounds are not together, so don't think you can join forces. You will have no one to rely on and will have to go it alone!" said the Demon Slayer God.
Xiao Chou let out an "ah" and his face was full of disappointment. He thought he could go with Shen Xiang!
"Oh, this first place reward is so boring!" Fat Old Five sighed. He originally thought he could get something good.
Yuan Baibing laughed and said, "No wonder Master wants to gamble with the God of Wealth. It turns out that the first place can't get anything good!"
"Don't be too happy too soon. We still have to go to war with the Temple of Hell. Time is running out. Go back and rest up quickly!" The Demon Slayer glanced at Ren Tianyong and the others.
"Yes!" Shen Xiang and the others responded in unison.
Back at the Demon-Slaying Temple in the Demon-Slaying City, the disciples here are already prepared and can attack the Hell Temple at any time. Winning first place in this competition will also boost the morale of the Demon-Slaying Temple!
Shen Xiang and Wang Jinshi were called to the floor by the Demon Slayer God. He wanted to talk to them alone. Obviously, he wanted to talk about the killing of Huo Liao and Huo Lie. This matter could not be so easy to resolve!
The most important thing is the God-killing Sword Technique! Shen Xiang was quite worried about this matter. He was worried that the Demon Slayer Heavenly God would force him to tell him that the God-killing Sword Technique was taught by Wang Jinshi.
Wang Jinshi and Shen Xiang sat in the living room of the Demon Slayer God in fear. The Demon Slayer God changed into a grey robe, walked out slowly and sat at the top. Seeing his gentle smile, Shen Xiang and Wang Jinshi were not so nervous anymore.
"You... performed very well this time. You were able to obtain five beads, and you also killed two outstanding war gods from the Fire God Temple! But..." The face of the Demon Slayer God darkened: "You did not do things in a neat and orderly manner. You even exposed the God-killing Sword Technique!"
