Chapter 174: Reverse Tiangang



After getting ashore, Lin Ke continued to walk forward quickly.

He soon saw a building which, at first glance, looked like a magnificent palace.

The palace was built of black stones and golden runes. The outer walls were as smooth as a mirror, and the black stone surface emitted a cold light.

At the top is a sharp golden spire, which even penetrates into the deeper darkness of the underworld.

The main entrance of the courtroom is guarded by two majestic statues.

The door leading to the palace is paved with a long stone road, and on both sides of the road are shadowy corridors supported by heavy stone pillars.

Lin Ke did not approach the corridor because the walls on both sides of the corridor were inlaid with many broken and horrific pictures. Those were the tragic scenes of countless souls who had been judged and were sealed forever after the trial.

Not long after, Lin Ke stepped into a place that looked like a courtroom.

The walls here are covered with various runes and murals, and there is a slight smell of blood in the air.

Apparently, this was the place where one would be judged after death by Anubis, the god of death.

Although this was Lin Ke's first time here, he felt somewhat familiar with it.

Because he had seen similar scenes countless times on the murals of the royal palace in Holy Egypt.

This is where Anubis, the god of death, judges the hearts of the dead and decides the final fate of the soul.

Of course, Lin Ke knew very well that he could not be considered a real living person.

Therefore, he still regards this as a test from Anubis, the god of death.

In Lin Ke's memory, this test had two very critical links.

The first one is a link called "denial of confession".

That is to say, they have to declare that they did not commit any crimes during their lifetime.

For example, words like "I didn't steal", "I didn't kill", "I didn't lie", and so on.

These words are intended to prove the purity and innocence of the speaker.

Of course, you are not allowed to lie in this step. If you lie, you will not be able to pass the next step.

This is the part where the heart is weighed.

If the heart is lighter or balanced than the feather, which symbolizes justice and truth, it means that the speaker behaved uprightly in his lifetime and he will pass smoothly.

And if the heart is heavier, it means that the speaker is guilty of a crime.

Then, the terrible monster Amit will devour the speaker's heart, and the soul will be shattered and disappear.

But at this moment, Lin Ke found that his hands automatically went behind his back and were out of control.

It was as if some invisible force was binding him.

At the same time, the sand blade in his hand quietly hid its light and disappeared into his robe.

wrong!

Something seems to be wrong!

Lin Ke raised his head and looked towards the center of the courtroom.

A strange creature was now slowly walking towards him.

But to be more precise, it might not be called "walking".

Because the monster's body looked like a fusion of a jackal, an antelope and other unknown creatures.

It has a long curved snout, erect ears and a forked tail.

Even the word "monster" is probably not enough to describe its appearance.

This was because the hybrid looked so terrifying that ordinary people would be shocked by its degree of incontinence at a glance.

"Welcome to the Courtroom."

Even the voices sound like a mixture: "You can. reach. here. That's amazing."

"But, can you, successfully, get, through, here?"

"It's me who decides."

Lin Ke looked at the hybrid, then looked into the distance: "Who are you?"

"Where is Anubis, the god of death?"

The hybrid's mouth curled up slightly: "Anu, Bis?"

"Ancient, name."

"He's not here. I'm in charge here now."

Lin Ke frowned slightly and quickly thought of a countermeasure in his mind.

He realized that perhaps the collapse of the order of the underworld was due to the weakening of the power of Egyptian faith.

Even such a monster could find a way in and replace Anubis, the god of death.

However, Lin Ke immediately realized that the reason he was led here was not entirely a test from Anubis, the god of death.

But he needs Lin Ke's help.

Those questions were extremely difficult for other people and no one could pass them successfully.

Therefore, only Lin Ke can arrive here.

In other words, it was Anubis, the god of death, who sent him a signal asking for help.

Then, we must help.

He also immediately understood why the Sand Blade suddenly hid its light and hid in Lin Ke's robe.

The hybrid then slowly said to Lin Ke: "Now, the trial begins."

"First, it's 'affirmation of sin.'

"Tell me, what crimes have you committed?"

Hearing this, Lin Ke was stunned.

Affirmation of sin?

What kind of link is this!

He knew that the traditional trial process was "denial of confession", which meant declaring that the person had not committed any crimes during his lifetime.

However, the hybrid did the opposite and asked him to admit his sins.

Lin Ke simply said calmly: "I steal, I kill, I rob, I cheat, I betray."

Then his eyes rolled slightly.

"I lied."

There was a hint of surprise in the hybrid's eyes, and then a twisted and strange smile appeared: "Very good, very good."

"The sins are so many that I am amazed."

"As long as you pass the last step, you can become my servant."
