Slayer of Gods: I lied; I became the agent of the Nine Gods.

The group soon arrived at their destination—the queen ant's main nest.

When the scene of giant ants devouring animals came into view, everyone except An Qingyu and Di Ting, who had witnessed even more bloody scenes in the prehistoric world, frowned deeply.

"It will continue to eat as long as the food supply is continuous. We can't just wait around; we have to take the initiative to drive it away from this safe environment."

Anqingyu observed carefully and soon discovered that this place was not easy to break through. The queen ant was still safely feeding under heavy encirclement. In order to find the real entrance, it was necessary to get it out of here.

Di Ting shook his head: "They won't actually enter the underworld..."

"That is the realm of the dead. If we go in, these weak beings will surely be hunted down by the souls of the underworld."

"Besides... we don't need it anymore..."

Di Ting looked at the giant ant, its eyes already filled with the gaze one would give to a dead creature.

Any being that invades the underworld will be placed on a death list and subjected to a truly genocidal extermination.

This is the rule of the entire prehistoric world, and also their tacitly understood habit.

"Although I am not the guide to the underworld, we are now very close to it, so just follow me."

Di Ting jumped off the deer and walked to the front.

“I will slaughter all the people here, but not now.”

Hearing Di Ting speak in a child's voice, the teenagers didn't utter a single word of objection; instead, they nodded in agreement.

"This was originally our task, and we will definitely clean it up when the time comes."

Otherwise, if they multiply too much, they will definitely invade the surrounding villages.

Di Ting didn't care that these people had different purposes than him. He just kept walking, but he became quieter and quieter.

The group carefully bypassed the main nest and were about to enter a fork in the road when they saw that the giant ants, who had previously regarded them as their own kind, suddenly became restless.

First, one of them turned towards a few people, and then a whole bunch of them followed.

“…We’ve been discovered.”

Lu Yu was somewhat annoyed, "So fast..."

The fog surrounding the Key to the Gate is really troublesome; it was so close...

She glanced at the layer of soil above the queen ant's head, and through the layers of soil, she saw the power contained within.

Sure enough, the entire ant nest was built around the queen ant, and even the soil layer here was the most solid and thickest.

Seeing that things had come to this point, Lu Yu put away [Zhang Zhang Wei Huan] and flashed to block Li Deyang's path.

The ant colony's restlessness erupted the moment the presence of several strangers was revealed.

Seeing the ants rapidly gathering towards them, Lu Yu waved his hand behind him:

"I'll count to three, then you lead them forward!"

He raised his hand and extended three fingers.

"one……"

Lu Yu stretched out his empty hand, unleashing the "No Limits" ability to its maximum, blocking the giant ants' advance between them and the ant colony.

"two---"

With his other hand, he raised a small red ball, causing the surrounding air to twist and swirl.

"Three—Run!"

The red "He" detached from the fingertip and flew towards Lu Yu's target—

The top of the queen ant's head.

The sound of the soil being forcibly twisted and cracked fell, followed by large chunks of rock that crashed down.

The queen ant emitted a sound powerful enough to rip eardrums, causing the ants that were chasing the deer and their companions to return to her side.

Lu Yu took one last look before teleporting away from the scene of the accident.

"I can't keep up for now."

The journey continued without any unexpected incidents. Perhaps it was because we were getting closer to the underworld that living beings dared not approach, which is why we couldn't see them.

Less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea later, Di Ting stopped and said, "We've arrived."

Lu Yu lifted the branch of the Migu tree that he had taken from his collar, and the light emitted by its petals was instantly illuminated, lighting up the entire darkness in a single moment.

A massive bronze gate, covered in mud and sand, came into view.

Even when they stood upright, they only reached the foot of the door. Looking up, the intricate ancient patterns stretched into the endless darkness above.

An imposing aura that suppressed everyone's breath swept down from above, causing them to instinctively hold their breath. Even Cao Yuan, a believer in gods and Buddhas, lowered his head at this moment, no longer daring to raise his head and offend them.

The six people stood before this enormous gate, feeling so insignificant and humble that they seemed unable to even perceive their own existence.

Only Di Ting remained, silently pacing to the bronze door, its golden eyes seemingly lost in thought.

"Listen carefully..."

Lu Yu called out from behind.

The divine beast stiffened, sighed, and finally raised its black forepaw, placing it before the bronze door.

"I know... that the Di Ting of this world is dead, but if there are spirits in the six realms, please allow Di Ting to return..."

The silent ancient city seemed to come alive at this moment. As the breeze blew by, the little divine beast, who was not yet an adult, could not hold back and shed a tear as it looked at the door that was so different from its memory yet so familiar.

The ancient gate, sealed for countless years, quietly opened its passage at this moment, not fully open, but silently conveying a welcome.

Looking at the ancient gate and the sorrowful, tearful divine beast, Li Deyang felt a sudden, inexplicable urge gripping his heart, and memories welled up like a tidal wave about to burst forth.

"...Your Majesty, after I leave, I hope you will take good care of Diting... It cannot bear the noise of the world, yet it fears loneliness..."

"Then please spend more time with it..."

I don't know whose parting words I heard, but just as I tried to grasp them, they vanished without a trace.

Blood filled the sky, darkness and evil pressed down as the apocalyptic gray mist descended, followed by flashes of golden light...

Li Deyang's vision blurred, and he looked at Di Ting in front of him with some surprise and uncertainty.

Why... why did he see what this little divine beast would look like when it grew up...?

Unlike its current petite and adorable appearance, which also possessed a憨厚傻傻 (simple and naive) charm, this one was now murderous, baring its teeth and taking away large chunks of flesh—

It charged toward an unknown direction, slaying gods and demons alike, and surprisingly, it did not fall behind...

Where is it going?

A sense of gloom settled in Li Deyang's eyes, and soon he knew the answer...

The man, unable to contain himself, covered his eyes, trying to stop the waves of arousal.

In the dim fog, everything in sight was ravaged by death, leaving only a small temple, deserted yet standing alone...

The colossal gray beast raised its head and roared, weeping with blood and tears, before perishing before the dilapidated Buddhist altar...
