I slay demons and monsters in a bizarre city.

Chapter 85 The Chosen One—The Ultimate Divine Office

The nine-tailed blue fox died, pecked bit by bit by the black eagle, its sharp talons cutting it piece by piece, until it finally died in agony.

Black Goat's situation wasn't much better than Nine-Tailed Fox's. Although it was covered in wounds, Black Goat's mythical card was Five-Colored Divine Light, which was of a much higher grade and had a resistance level one level stronger than Nine-Tailed Fox's.

Unfortunately, Oriole's Necronomicon kept summoning dark-attribute black eagles. This kind of soul attack was extremely terrifying to Black Goat and Nine-Tailed Fox, but they couldn't do anything about the black eagles and couldn't kill them completely.

It was only a matter of time before the black goat died. Layer upon layer of black eagles, burning with flames, formed an eagle wall, surrounding the black goat. With a punch from the black goat, a large flock of black eagles were sent flying, and a hole the size of a magic millstone appeared in the wall...

"Who are you?" Li Changgeng was controlled by the man in yellow, and his movements were restricted. He believed that the man in yellow was capable of doing this. He seemed to be in another higher-dimensional space, crushing and killing the people in Black Sea City in real life.

"You save me, and I'll save you and your family! No matter how powerful you are, you can't leave the giant walls of Black Sea City. By the way, I gave you a forging furnace before, you can still use it. Divine weapons can be fused together, and these demon gods can also be fused together and regenerated, but you have to be careful about their gender."

The man in yellow scoffed and continued, "It's best for men and women not to fuse, otherwise problems will easily arise. A third personality is understandable, but a third gender is laughable. After fusion, the demon god will become even more powerful. If you want to live, you must become stronger. The city lord's palace in the Sky Sea has a good forging furnace!"

“If you save your sister, you will pay a price. You’re curious about what’s in the shrine, aren’t you? If you complete my task, the countdown will stop. If you want, I can even take the bronze shrine out of your head.”

The floating phantom of the man in yellow dimmed. He had been seeing Li Changgeng too often lately, which affected his divine status. The restrictions of the Cerberus seal had locked his divine status. Once the Cerberus was subdued by Li Changgeng, his divine status would be more stable and his divine power would be stronger.

He had to use Li Changgeng, this puppet. The arrival of the Eternal Night Mist was the last chance for the gods to fight for their divine positions and to "become gods." After that, there would be no more opportunities to reshape and ascend to godhood. Therefore, all the gods were eyeing the opportunity covetously and were eager to make their move, each displaying their unique abilities.

The Thirteen Coffins of Evil Spirits, one of the most active representatives of evil gods, are among them. Evil gods have never been favored by the gods. Although they are very powerful, far surpassing the original gods, they have no place among the gods. Although the ancient gods hold many divine positions among the gods, many of them have fallen from their pedestals due to infighting and killing each other.

The Thunder God, to whom the man in yellow is located, became the target of everyone's attacks during Ragnarok. The Thunder God vanished into thin air and almost ceased to exist. The man in yellow is the last remaining divine essence of the Thunder God.

Hopefully, Li Changgeng can kill Cerberus. The man in yellow isn't sure if Li Changgeng can win either; let's hope for good luck.

"Li Changgeng, you'd better not die, otherwise Thor's bet on you will be wasted." The man in yellow clasped his hands together in front of his chest, his hands like octopus tentacles. Li Changgeng's current strength was indeed like an egg hitting a rock when facing Cerberus, but there was no other way. There was no time to lose. The evil god was about to fall into Black Sea City for rebirth.

As one of the few remaining deities of Thor, the man in yellow doesn't believe in Buddhism, but he still piously puts his hands together and prays for Buddha's blessing, knowing he has no choice but to take a gamble!

The dense swarm of black eagles cried out, and Li Changgeng had no way out. The three-headed hellhound in the cave and the oriole who claimed to be one of the Ten Ancient Gods were both very wary of it. If Li Changgeng went there, it would be tantamount to courting death.

The golden blade slashed horizontally, its golden light rippling, and a large number of black eagle corpses fell to the ground with a clatter.

"My lord, the creature in that cave is the vicious, soul-locking Cerberus, but I can't help you." The black goat's massive body was already covered in blood. There were simply too many black hawks to kill them all; this was a method of attacking the soul.

"Let's jump down together!" Li Changgeng assessed the situation and realized that continuing like this would be pointless. Even the Black Goat couldn't do anything about these Black Hawks, so Li Changgeng was even less capable. It would be better to join forces with the Black Goat to deal with Cerberus.

Choice is always more important than effort. If you choose the wrong path, all your efforts will be in vain. If you're going in the wrong direction, the harder you work, the further you'll get from your goal.

Black Goat knew how powerful Cerberus was. Hearing Li Changgeng's words, he was so frightened that his arms trembled uncontrollably, followed by his legs, and then his whole body shook like a sieve. "My lord, Cerberus is no match for us! Dying under the claws of this black eagle is better than dying in the mouth of Cerberus."

It turns out that even black goats can be scared.

Li Changgeng drew his Shadowless Blade and unleashed a flurry of blade light. Immediately following, he executed a Wave-Splitting Slash, unleashing a golden, rotating wave about three feet in diameter from the blade. This wave, like a serrated cutting edge, produced beams of golden light that grew larger and larger with each strike…

Boom!

The golden light of the rift exploded, blasting away countless black eagles.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the black goat took two steps instead of three and finally arrived in front of Li Changgeng.

"Jump down with me." Li Changgeng stomped his foot and leaped down.

Black Goat gritted his teeth. Since Li Changgeng had chosen to fight Cerberus to the death, he had no choice but to go with him. It was only a matter of time before he died here.

Contrary to expectations, Li Changgeng's body descended slowly. The cave didn't seem very deep, the temperature dropped significantly, and everything beneath his feet was a vast expanse of white.

"This is ice and snow, my lord." The black goat looked at the frozen valley beneath his feet. "The power of Cerberus is enough to crush us, but I have a way so we don't have to die!"

Li Changgeng had no other choice. The green countdown timer in front of him had less than fifteen minutes left. If he couldn't kill Cerberus, and the man in yellow attacked Li Ying, even if Xia Mengmeng and Lin Mo were there, they wouldn't be able to stop him.

"With me here, you won't die!" Li Changgeng said to the black goat with a determined look in his eyes. "We will definitely be able to kill Cerberus."

“My lord, it seems you have no idea how terrifying Cerberus is!!” The black goat looked terrified, its flaming horns tucked in slightly. “His three heads can withstand divine power, devour souls, and are immune to attacks. In other words, we can’t do anything to him.”

"That girl who chanted the black book, her black eagle is so strong, but her soul was sealed by Cerberus and she can only stay here."

As his body continued to fall, Li Changgeng could only rely on the Shadowless Blade in his hand and the black goat beside him, who was almost half dead.

If you don't become stronger, you'll only be at the mercy of others, or even become a puppet.

"How can I survive?" Li Changgeng saw an ice palace and felt a powerful aura. This oppressive aura did not seem to come from a demonic beast, but rather from the light of a divine seal imbued with a godhood.

The black goat said in a dramatic tone, "Submit, admit defeat, and willingly let Cerberus lock your soul."

Li Changgeng practically floated down to the front of the Ice and Snow Palace.

The black goat followed closely behind and landed as well. They were on the ice peak of a sheer cliff, with only the gate of the ice palace in front of them. Egg-sized snowflakes fell, and although they could not see the sun, moon, or stars, it was very bright here.

Rumble…

The gates of the ice palace slowly opened.
