Overgod Ascension

Gudong! Gudong!

A small stone rolled on the hillside, faster and faster, and immediately flew out of the cliff and fell into the abyss shrouded in clouds and mist that seemed to have no bottom. There was no echo for a long time.

boom!

There was a dull impact, followed immediately by a scream.

Ava's muscles tensed up, and with a sudden collision, an ogre opposite him lost his footing and fell into the cliff, shattering into pieces.

Damn... I didn't expect there was an ogre here!

He cursed fiercely, and then looked at the bottomless cliffs on both sides, the mountain road that could only be walked by one person, especially the howling wind, which almost blew him topsy turvy, and his face became even more pale. Snow white.

Where is that damn ruin?

Ava cursed, and suddenly saw a plume of thick smoke rising on the mountainside, and he breathed a sigh of relief: Finally no more exploration, I hope there will be discoveries this time!

…

Did you find it?

Wu Ming quickly rushed to the place where the smoke was rising, looked at Beatrice, and asked with some surprise.

The previous places that were suspected to be ruins only brought him disappointment, and there were also sporadic encounters with ogres, which made the entire team a little restless.

Although those ogres were not very powerful, the steep terrain of the Eagle's Nest Mountains still caused them some trouble.

I've already seen it, I won't be wrong this time, Master!

Beatrice said quite confidently.

She is of blue blood and is a descendant of the Conqueror King Taler, the maker of this scroll. Wu Ming also believed in this mysterious connection. After the team members arrived, he immediately said: Take us to see it.

The ruins Beatrice discovered were in a valley, and just getting there required passing through several very steep mountain passes.

The entire entrance to the valley is covered with a layer of vines, and you can't even spot it unless you are very careful.

Indeed... the terrain here is very similar to the map on the scroll.

After entering the valley, Wu Ming looked at the surrounding environment, unfolded his own scroll, made comparisons, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Master, look!

Beatrice pointed to a symbol on it: This emblem... is exactly the same as the Taler symbol on the map!

There are also traces of manual excavation on both sides!

Jack used his giant sword to push away the moss and soil, and made a judgment: The rocks here have been carved. To do this in the Eagle's Nest Mountains, only the conqueror would have needed the manpower and material resources!

Following the map instructions, Wu Ming and the others quickly found a cave. After some exploration by Mallet, they sent out a coded signal that everything is safe.

Let's go!

Wu Ming and others lit torches and entered the cave one after another.

The entrance to the cave is very narrow, and only one person can walk in, and he has to turn sideways, but as you go inside, the space becomes larger and larger, the ground is very dry, and in the end it turns into a path paved with stone slabs.

Sir, look!

Mallette's voice was filled with excitement and he pointed around: I found them!

Under the flame of the torch, Wu Ming immediately saw eight stone knights with stern expressions and wearing armor.

They have resolute expressions, and the lines on their faces are lifelike. They hold big swords and look straight ahead, like loyal guards.

On the chests of the eight statues, there are also letter emblems, representing different meanings.

Humility, honor, sacrifice, bravery, mercy, spirit, honesty, justice... these eight ancient knight virtues, how many knights can truly achieve them now?

Wu Ming sighed.

There is also a line of small characters here...it is ancient Xikanglai language...

Karitan knelt down and looked at the inscription in front of the stone statue: Translated, it means... Only by passing the trial of the Road of Kings can you obtain true inheritance.

The road of kings?

Mallet looked at the statue in front of him with some amusement, Is it just them? Eight big fools who can't move? Haha... The road to kings has been stepped on by us.

Click! Click!

Just after he said this, a sudden change occurred!

The huge stone statues turned their necks, and suddenly they all stared at him, and a long stone sword came down with great force.

boom!

Wu Ming's figure flashed, grabbing Mallet's collar and retreating quickly.

The huge stone sword hit the ground, revealing a small pit. Amidst the splash of earth and rocks, a layer of stone skin on the sword also fell off, revealing a deep and sharp sheen like steel.

Click! Click!

The eight stone knights seemed to have their own lives at this time, and they began to move slowly.

Is this...a puppet? Animated life? Or an object of oath? A magic that can be preserved for thousands of years...

Caritan murmured, her eyes shining as if she had seen the god she believed in.

boom! boom!

The stone statue moved, every step felt like a small earthquake.

Although I have not tried their power, it is obvious that they are not inferior to ordinary knights! No! Even powerful knights may not be their opponents. Coupled with the defense covered in rocks, I am afraid that even a small team of knights will be torn into pieces by them if they fight head-on!

What should I do? Sir?

Jack stood in front: Escape from the cave first?

No!

Caritan's voice was sharp: This is an ancient ritual! Do you understand the oath? Once the Eight Knights are activated, it represents the beginning of the inheritance. Once you withdraw, you will no longer have the opportunity to inherit.

I don't think they are just a bunch of 'trial officers'!

Ava tightly grasped the sword in his hand: They seem to be more interested in how to tear us apart.

call!

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the heroic knight in the lead struck with a sword, and Jack waved his sword to block it.

when!

The sound of violent clashing of gold and iron came, causing the eardrums of everyone in the cave to vibrate.

In the loud noise, Jack flew backwards, the giant sword in his hand was broken into two pieces, and blood flowed from the tiger's mouth.

Be careful! They are very powerful, and the long sword must be forged with blood steel!

Jack was half leaning on the rock wall, looking at the guardian statue approaching step by step, and warned loudly.

Blood steel?

Of course Wu Ming has heard of this kind of steel. It is rumored to be the best material for forging armor and swords in the entire Seer continent. In terms of the degree of treasure, it is even more valuable than mithril and gold essence.

Sure enough, Wu Ming seemed to see a few flashes of crimson light in the shadows of the big swords wielded by the knights.

Is the test of a conqueror so difficult?

He licked his lips, but his expression became more excited.

After all, the more difficult the test is, the greater the benefits will be gained after passing it.

The battle formation composed of these eight puppet statues uses long swords mixed with blood steel. The stone armor on their bodies must also be protected by mysterious power and can resist the power of magic.

Such a difficult test, even if a team composed entirely of knights and mages is difficult enough, what kind of secrets are they guarding?

Beatrice!

Wu Ming slowly drew out the Dragon Heart Sword, the sharp blade flashing blue light in the darkness.

Beatrice stepped forward carefully and handed him a small water bag.

Wu Ming pulled out the stopper, poured out the blue blood inside, and poured it on the sword body.

‘I have researched this scroll, and it is probably a legacy of the conqueror. Judging from the words left by Taller I, this scroll is obviously to be passed on to descendants... The authentication rule must be blood! ’

He thought silently in his heart, dancing with the blue bloody sword, and his whole body was like the wind, sinking into the road of kings.

Swish!

In the next moment, eight long swords arrived almost instantly.

Although these stone statues seem to move slowly, their arms move like wind wheels and their swords move like lightning.

ah!

Seeing the eight sword blades thrust out almost simultaneously, locking Wu Ming's front, rear, left, and right directions, Beatrice and Caritan, who were watching the battle outside, screamed almost simultaneously.

Crackling!

From Wu Ming, a sound like exploding beans came out.

His whole body shrank in an instant, as if he had changed from a young man to a child, not much thinner than a piece of parchment, and rushed out from the most unlikely gap like the wind.

Phew!

Immediately, Wu Ming's whole body grew stronger again, and he stabbed quickly with his right hand. The right hand of a statue knight holding a sword fell off, and the cut surface was as smooth as a mirror.

This is……

Ava's eyes lit up when he saw it: The secret bone shrinking technique that Sir has only mentioned once?

Secret technique?

Jack looked at this shocking scene and didn't know what to say.

He is a knight. Knight William has not been baptized and is just an ordinary person.

But for a knight like him, if he duels with a lord, he may not be able to draw the second sword and his head will fall to the ground.

How can one possess such powerful power even if his skills are at the extreme level?

Jack's eyes were bright, as if he had discovered a sunny avenue.

drink!

Wu Ming let out a loud roar, the energy and blood in his body burned, and his reaction speed and strength skyrocketed in an instant.

His dragon-heart sword slashed down vertically and collided with two blood-steel swords. It had a suppressive effect and knocked the two stone statues to the ground.

As expected of Taller's sword!

Seeing the Dragon Heart Sword fighting hard against the Blood Steel Sword, but not having any gaps, Wu Ming sighed in admiration, feeling completely relieved, and rushed into the remaining knights.

Sword skill - whirlwind dance!

His whole body seemed to have turned into a hurricane, and the dragon heart sword was hidden in the endless wind blades, cutting off several stone arms one by one.

Bang bang!

Dozens of kilograms of stones fell to the ground, making a dull noise. In the end, there was only a pile of motionless stones left on the spot.

Master... you are really...

Caritan stared at this scene blankly, with a look of laughter on her face: I just deduced that to pass the road of kings, you only need to show the corresponding virtues you possess to the statue!

It's too troublesome to do this. I like a simpler way...

Wu Ming exhaled a breath of white air.

At this time, Beatrice discovered that he also had a few superficial injuries. She immediately exclaimed and stepped forward to bandage Wu Ming.
