Chapter 644 - 436: The Life-and-Death Game
"Why aren’t you going up?"
Sunlight Qianyu was sipping Coke when suddenly Lin Lang’s voice echoed in his mind.
"No rush, I’m waiting for the right moment."
Sunlight Qianyu responded calmly:
"Though I know you surely have a way to make me win. But before that, I also want to try winning with my own strength!"
After all, the significance of ascension is extraordinary!
Although Sunlight Qianyu is someone who focuses on results, he doesn’t have the obsession to ascend purely on his own strength!
However, if he could win this ascension battle with his own power, it would indeed be something to be prouder of.
"Is that so? Then I wish you all the best."
Lin Lang, understanding Sunlight Qianyu’s inner thoughts, smiled slightly and then withdrew his Divine Sense.
At this moment!
The grand battle of the gods in the sky was also reaching its conclusion!
The multitude of once-raging auras had now completely subsided.
Seeing this, Guna La couldn’t help but say:
"Have they perished?"
She seemed very excited—
Not because she was worried about the gods, but because she felt like she was witnessing a piece of great history!
Those gods have been living since the Ancient Era, they’re living fossils!
Each possesses unfathomable power!
Individually, they could suppress an entire era!
But today, one by one, they have departed!
This is an event that could affect this era!
However, Lin Lang just smiled slightly:
"Only one or two truly died, completely disappearing from this world!"
"The rest have concealed themselves."
"Perhaps they’ve already realized this ascension is hopeless and have decided to hide for decades, waiting for the next opportunity to ascend!"
Upon hearing this!
Guna La was stunned:
"Really?! Using that trick again?"
Back in the Ancient Era thousands of years ago, people thought these Ancient Gods had perished!
Yet thousands of years later, today, they suddenly jumped out to compete for ascension slots!
After failing!
They suddenly want to use their old tricks again!
Hiding for another few thousand years?
Isn’t that too sly?
Lin Lang sighed:
"These gods, after all, have lived for thousands or even tens of thousands of years to achieve their current accomplishments, each cherishing life very much!"
"Sure, ascension is important, but if it comes with the cost of death and Dao dissolution, I guess few would be willing."
"After all, only by living can there be hope!"
"Perhaps, for most of them, showing up this time was just a gamble."
...
Guna La felt a bit bewildered—
Didn’t these gods struggle to live until now for one desperate gamble, to ascend to the Upper Realm?
Why are they unwilling to fight now?
But after thinking it over, she felt Lin Lang was right—
If the opportunity for ascension is lost, it will appear again in a few thousand years!
But if life is lost, then truly everything is lost, isn’t it?
She was therefore surprised:
"You see right through them!"
Lin Lang chuckled:
"Though they’re already called gods, at their core, they’re still people who understand calculation."
Guna La added:
"However, the lifespan of gods isn’t infinite either; it’s only tens of thousands of years. So in a lifetime, there really aren’t many opportunities to ascend!"
Lin Lang replied:
"So, most of them will choose to go all out on what might be their last opportunity."
That’s the most cost-effective choice!
...
At this moment!
The battle of the gods was nearing its end!
After a brutal fight, in the sky, finally, only one figure remained!
Looking unsteady!
"Finally, it’s me who won!"
It was a middle-aged man.
From the beginning, Lin Lang knew he would win—
He carried the bloodline of the "Dragon"!
And possessed more than a hundred powerful superpowers!
He had an endless array of magical treasures in his arsenal!
His overall strength was a notch above the rest!
Thus, even after a battle, he looked unaffected, still as serene as ever!
"Ascension Gate! Here I come!"
His gaze was fixed on the golden gateway in the sky, and he flew over!
"Hold on!"
At that moment!
A calm voice appeared out of nowhere, echoing all around!
"Who?!"
"It’s me."
A pure white, holy figure slowly emerged from the sun!
The moment Guna La saw this person!
She was almost dumbfounded and shouted involuntarily:
"It’s him?! Emperor Mingyue?! The God King from ten thousand years ago!"
"Oh?"
Lin Lang’s eyes lit up!
...
"Emperor Mingyue, you are willing to appear?"
"Finally, an interesting opponent!"
"Hahaha! I knew you old foxes, each shrewder than the last!"
At this moment!
Suddenly, from many unnoticed corners on Earth, more and more powerful auras erupted!
One by one, figures headed to the sky!
Their auras were not inferior to the terrifying Emperor Mingyue!
...
Seeing this scene, the "final winner" in the sky’s expression turned extremely ugly—
No way?
I just defeated countless competitors!
And now, a group of Level 100 bosses suddenly appears?!
How am I supposed to fight this?!
Moreover!
These are terrifying emperors whose lifespan was nearly exhausted, looking for one last desperate gamble!
To put it bluntly!
This is a group of outrageously strong, fearless, and ready-to-risk-it-all fierce figures!
"The second round of battle has begun."
Lin Lang chuckled.
And this time!
Sunlight Qianyu, who had been observing, also stepped out!
