Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 35 Chapter35- The Devil's Corpse, The Mutated Darklord!

After both the Blue Sea Guild and the Genesis Guild had entered the underground ruins.

Those players who had initially been hiding on the outskirts began to gradually approach and enter the ruins.

Among the crowd, White Feather and Emma, with their figures and appearances concealed under cloaks, also moved in.

Everyone stopped about dozens of meters from the entrance of the ruins' tunnel.

At the entrance of the tunnel, two high-level players were standing guard.

It was clear that they were left behind by the Blue Sea Guild and Genesis Guild to keep watch.

Emma looked around.

There were at least a thousand players here, each eyeing the entrance of the ruins hungrily.

She couldn't help but admire the two players guarding the entrance, for they were able to stay calm in the face of so many fierce figures.

White Feather seemed to understand her thoughts, and sent her a private message, saying,

"These two guards are not just two players, they represent the Blue Sea Guild and the Genesis Guild... There's no such thing as silencing people by killing them in the game. "

"Whoever kills them, they can report to the Blue Sea and Adam after they resurrect. Then, the player who killed them will face the wrath of the two guilds."

"So these players are just watching and no one is foolish enough to really rush forward and wipe them out."

Emma nodded in agreement.

In truth, she understood that these people were all holding a desire.

It just depended on who would be bold enough to spark the fire.

If there really was someone who wasn't afraid to start trouble...

These players would certainly rush forward and overwhelm the two guards at the entrance.

Just then, a tall player carrying giant twin axes on his back took a few steps forward.

Everyone's gaze turned to him.

The two guards at the entrance of the tunnel also became alert.

One was a mage and the other a knight.

The mage raised his staff and the knight drew his sword from his back.

"Halt!"

The knight roared angrily, pointing his sword at the approaching warrior.

The warrior laughed, saying, "What, isn't this a public area? Do I need your permission to pass by? Since when can the people of Blue Sea Guild and Genesis Guild be so domineering?"

As his voice echoed, countless spectators joined in the uproar, shouting,

"Exactly! You didn't buy this place! On what grounds are you stopping people from walking by?"

"Even if both of your guilds are in the top ten globally, you can't bully people like this!"

"Top ten guilds should pay more attention to their reputation! What's so great about bullying solo players like us?"

"We would like to see what you can do to so many of us!"

As they spoke, these shouting players started gathering behind the warrior, shortening the original distance of dozens of meters to just over ten.

The mage guarding the entrance became angry.

He raised his hands, and a hot fireball immediately appeared above his head.

"Don't be rash. They're trying to provoke us. If we attack first, they'll have an excuse!"

The knight hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Don't act yet, let me handle this."

Having said that, the knight also stepped forward and loudly admonished,

"You all really have leisure time, following our two major guilds for so long, coming from afar here, surely it's not just a coincidence? I urge you all, the Blue Sea Guild and Genesis Guild are currently working together to treasure hunt here, if you approach another step, it would be declaring enmity with our two major guilds! If a conflict truly arises, don't blame us for not warning you in advance!"

The knight's words were neither humble nor arrogant, leaving those trouble-making players without an excuse to pick a fight.

Seeing his plan to provoke them fail, the warrior's face turned somewhat unpleasant.

Now, he was the closest to the tunnel entrance, stuck in a position where it was inappropriate to move forward or retreat.

Just as the players above ground were locked in a stalemate.

In the underground tunnel.

Darklord was sprinting forward alone, followed closely by the members of the Blue Sea Guild and the Genesis Guild.

The remaining survivors in the Darklord Guild were also following behind.

"Why the hell can a knight run so fast? Is he a hidden or rare class?" Adam complained while chasing.

Blue Sea kept a close watch on Darklord's figure, without saying a word.

He had a feeling that something was amiss but couldn't put his finger on what it was.

In the tunnel, faint fire dots were seen everywhere.

No one knew where these eerie floating blue fires came from.

Fortunately, these blue fires did not attack players and even provided some illumination.

Although the visibility was average, it was better than nothing.

After running for a while, the tunnel finally came to an end.

What appeared in front of everyone was a huge stone door.

On the stone door, a peculiar language was engraved with many strange traces.

Blue Sea and Adam recognized it as the Demon language.

"It seems this is the place." Blue Sea said with a serious face.

Adam also nodded.

Although he seemed expressionless, his eyes revealed an excitement that he couldn't hide.

There might be countless treasures of The Devil behind this giant stone door!

No one could remain completely calm at this thought.

At this moment, Darklord took out the Ancient Parchment that was gleaming with golden light from his pocket.

He read out a hard-to-understand language according to the words on the parchment.

Just listening to this language made people feel extremely uncomfortable, as if claws were scratching their hearts.

Then, after Darklord finished a long passage of the Demon language, he pasted the Ancient Parchment on the stone door.

In an instant, a large amount of black fog seeped out from the cracks of the stone door, staining the parchment completely black.

Then, a ball of black flame ignited, burning the parchment into ashes...

The earth shook with a rumble, and the stone door slowly opened.

Blue Sea was extremely cautious and ordered loudly,

"Everyone step back! Activate all defense skills!"

Players followed Blue Sea's orders, mages activated magic barriers, knights turned on various aura skills, and priests kept blessing their teammates...

Everyone was cautiously dealing with the possible upcoming situation.

But Darklord, who opened the door, laughed wildly like a madman and rushed into the stone door.

Behind the stone door was a huge tomb.

Inside, besides a giant stone coffin, there was nothing else.

It was empty, devoid of any treasure.

Then, Darklord, who had stepped over the stone door, suddenly turned around.

His eyes were filled with frightening red light, and he roared at Adam and Blue Sea, "Ha-ha-ha! You've fallen into my trap!"

"Until now, I've been using all of you!"

"I spent so much money and even sold my shares, all for this treasure! You actually thought you could share it equally with me? Dream on!"

"There was another sentence in Demon language on that parchment, which I purposely didn't tell you... 'The first one to step into The Devil's tomb will receive all of The Devil's inheritance and has the right to merge with The Devil's body, becoming The Devil's representative in the world!'"

"Now, I am the first person to enter!"

"I am the chosen one by The Devil!"

"Don't think you can benefit from this!"

After finishing his speech, Darklord laughed manically and rushed towards a stone coffin in the tomb.

His body was emitting black smoke, which seeped into the stone coffin...

Then, a dark hand broke the stone coffin and directly grabbed Darklord, who was rushing madly.

Darklord didn't avoid it, let it grab him, and even laughed loudly,

"Blue Sea, Adam!"

"I am about to become one with The Devil's body!"

"From today, I am The Devil!"

"All you humans, bow down to me!"

"If you dare disobey... when I completely merge with The Devil, I will exterminate you all here!"

Outside the stone door.

Blue Sea and Adam watched in horror as the huge black monster crawled out of the stone coffin.

It had three heads and six arms, each arm filled with eyes, and each head had a mouth full of sharp teeth.

This sight sent chills down Blue Sea's spine.

"It's bad, The Devil's treasure is a hoax! The Devil deliberately lured us here to use the power of living beings to revive its body!"

At this point, Blue Sea finally realized what he had been sensing was amiss.

There were no treasures here!

What existed here was just a corpse of The Devil waiting for a sacrifice!

Just as everyone was watching Darklord gradually being devoured by The Devil's corpse and about to merge into one.

A system notification sound threw everyone into chaos...
