"Hey, you must quicken your pace! An unprecedentedly powerful force is quietly gathering here!"
"I can clearly feel that the pulse of that power is still growing stronger!"
"I'm worried that before long, this power might even reach a level comparable to that old codger Bai Ze!"
The black serpent on Su Yue's shoulder stared intently at the distant Temple of Death, its eyes revealing deep vigilance and unease.
Judging from her tense expression, it wasn't hard to read her deep fear and wariness of that palace.
Su Yue was also puzzled, after all, it had only been a short time.
He had just broken through the defenses of the Temple of Death and personally killed the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the strongest under Death's command.
This caused the Grim Reaper's true form to suffer unprecedented damage, with all its attributes reduced by 50%.
Logically speaking, this punishment is equivalent to reducing the Grim Reaper's combat power by half, so its strength should have declined.
However, what is puzzling is that the power of the Grim Reaper itself has not diminished, but rather has become even stronger.
Su Yue's gaze pierced through the mist, landing on the distant location of the Chinese settlement, and his mind suddenly cleared.
"Could it be..." he murmured to himself, then suddenly realized, "It must be the gathering of a large number of dead souls that has provided the Grim Reaper with an opportunity to advance!"
Once Su Yue realized this, he knew that his time was running out.
He knew that the Lighthouse Alliance and the Chinese Dragon Group must have just gone through a fierce battle.
Admittedly, to Death, the energy possessed by a single life is but a drop in the ocean.
However, when these lost lives accumulate to a staggering millions.
Its energy is considerable even for Death.
This power can not only replenish the fighting strength that Death has lost in battle.
It could even become a key to unlock the shackles that have bound it for so long, and even break through the ancient and powerful seal of Death Island!
Therefore, Su Yue realized that time was of the essence and there was no time to lose.
He dared not hesitate or slack off in the slightest, and instantly activated the Wings of the God-King behind him.
His figure moved like lightning, rushing out and heading straight for the Temple of Death!
...
Within the deep, dark temple of Death, the deep, incredulous murmurs of Death echoed.
"Lone Wolf? A mere human, yet he managed to slaughter all my elite troops and even ravage my Death Island?"
He frowned, his figure leaning proudly against the throne that symbolized supreme power, surrounded by an indescribable aura of majesty and sorrow.
Anger boiled within him like a volcano, and he suddenly swung the ominous scythe in his hand.
With a heavy thud, the sickle embedded itself deeply into the stone slab beneath their feet.
The original Temple of the Dead was once filled with the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and the Twenty-Four Gods of Death.
And thousands of underworld warriors known to outsiders as the "Death Squad".
However, in just one day, all this prosperity and power vanished, leaving only a deathly silence.
Surprisingly, the instigator of all this chaos was a seemingly ordinary human being.
This temple of the dead seems to be a symbol of the authority of the god of death.
In reality, it became an insurmountable prison for him.
The Grim Reaper's true form is sealed here, unable to step out of the temple.
It can only remotely control its forces through a weak link.
His only solace and hope was to constantly improve himself.
He longs to one day break through his limits and advance to the Order level.
At that time, he will be able to master the power of the rules, completely break free from the shackles that have bound him for many years, and rewrite his predetermined destiny!
At that moment, Death keenly sensed that Su Yue was approaching at an alarming speed.
He found himself muttering to himself involuntarily, his tone filled with disdain and resentment:
"Incompetent fools! A bunch of self-important trash! And that self-proclaimed strongest human, Mike, is equally pathetic! I'm just one step away from advancing to the 'Order Level'!"
"Humans, keep killing yourselves! Orderers, I know what you're thinking! Once I kill Lone Wolf, the supreme position of Orderer will surely belong to me!"
...
At this moment, Su Yue had already arrived at the legendary Temple of the Dead.
The moment he stood before the gate, the "Undying Death" badge on his chest seemed to sense some kind of power and suddenly burst forth with dazzling light.
At the same time, the system's calm notification tone sounded.
[Lone Wolf, are you ready to bravely venture into the Netherworld Temple, fearlessly summon and confront Death?]
[Given that this journey is an unprecedented cross-dimensional challenge, the Death Badge will become your solid support, granting you extraordinary assistance!]
[Ding! Phase One Unlocked – The "Omniscient and Omnipotent" talent has been enhanced! When investigating an opponent, you are no longer restricted by level!]
Excellent! There's an old Chinese saying: "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated!"
The level of the Grim Reaper is 100, which is the maximum level in the apocalypse.
Since we are currently in the second season of the apocalypse, Su Yue's level cap is only 70.
The 30-level difference made it impossible for Su Yue to detect any information about the other party.
However, the enhancement of "omniscience and omnipotence" made Su Yue's mind as clear as a mirror and his hands full of strategies.
Only in this way can we make precise plans and find the opportunity to win even when we are in dire straits!
Su Yue gently brought up the attribute interface, focusing his gaze on his basic attributes.
[Lone Wolf, Level 70, Class: Zongbu God, Title: Number One Under Heaven.]
