“Did we pass?”
“Are you kidding…”
“Are you serious…”
As it was simply too easy, the majority of them were in disbelief that they had cleared the stage.
The Seven Demon Gods’ performance was equivalent to a white-named spawn from the very beginning until the end. Other than possessing an above-average ATK, they posed no threat at all.
A Paladin main tank went towards Li Yi and asked, “Leader, what should we do next?”
“Let’s move!”
LI Yi was entirely unfamiliar with the Seven Demon Gods as his experience from his past life stopped here. If one were to argue that he was much stronger than the rest of his party members, it was only in terms of his overpowered equipment and gaming sense.
It did not matter if they believed it or not. Now that the door had opened, they had no reason not to move forward.
Li Yi led the party and was the first person to walk through the door. They had cleared another stage.
As Li Yi walked out from the Dungeon’s exit, his party was transported back to Mount Pantheon. There was a series of ringing as the party members’ stats increased slightly once more.
“We’ve really cleared it…”
“That’s too easy.”
“I can’t believe this!”
The crowd cheered as they were still in disbelief.
An Instance Dungeon in Mount Pantheon should, theoretically, be incredibly difficult. Why would something so odd appear here?
“Buzz…”
As the system finished rewarding everyone. A few white beams were shot from the pinnacle of Mount Pantheon. Everyone in the party except for Li Yi was forcefully teleported elsewhere and Li Yi was soon left alone in Mount Pantheon.
Li Yi immediately voiced out in the Party Channel, “Where are you guys?”
“This is… The Seven Demon Palace!”
“Ahh. We’ve been teleported back in.”
“The Seven Demon Gods have revived. Sigh, we’re forced to battle.”
As Li Yi could not see what was happening inside, Zhang Yan had sent him a live stream.
Inside the Seven Demon Palace, all Seven Demon Gods had been revived. They started casting powerful magic spells and were giving the forcefully teleported players an extremely hard time. The party was completely helpless against them.
Li Yi was astounded.
The main tanks started grouping up and were ready to attract the aggro just as they had previously done. Unfortunately, the situation was completely different from before as the Seven Demon Gods no longer attacked them normally like idiots. They cast an incredibly overpowered skill the moment they waved their hands.
Half of their HP was knocked off with only one attack and they died in two attacks. The healers did not even have the chance to heal them…
All 49 players lay still on the ground in a blink of an eye.
They were wiped out…
Chi chi chi chi…
While Li Yi was in total shock, another party had been teleported out from the Dungeon.
“Isn’t that amazing?”
“What kind of trash dungeon is that?”
“I seriously don’t get it hahahaha.”
“It’s not even difficult at all.”
This party was just like Li Yi’s. All of them believed that the Seven Demon Gods were extremely weak after clearing it.
Soon, the same thing happened to them. All 49 members excluding the leader were sent back into the Seven Demon God Palace as they continued to challenge the Seven Demon Gods.
Li Yi seemed to have a better understanding of the situation while he observed.
It looked like the 50 players that were in the leaderboard were able to clear the stage easily, but the remaining players could not.
The party members inside were now fighting against the actual Seven Demon Gods.
“Dark Wing, what’s going on?”
The party leader that was left behind asked Li Yi.
Li Yi shook his head as he really did not know what was happening…
Chi chi chi chi…
More light beams were shot out from the Dungeon as the number of players that had cleared the stage gradually increased.
All 50 players in the God Wars leaderboard had cleared the stage easily whereas their party members had to suffer through the second fight that was overwhelmingly difficult.
“F*ck this. We’ve all arrived here but what’s happening to our party?”
“Can someone explain to me what the f*ck is going on?”
More and more people were getting confused.
“Jewelfina! Jewelfina!” Someone started screaming.
There was no response, let alone any sign of the God Messenger.
Players started worrying. “Could this be a bug?”
Brother Windcloud Nine walked over and said, “Dark Wing, do you know what’s going on?”
Li Yi shook his head as he looked around at the crowd.
“Where’s Ghostly Walker and the Weapon Warrior?”
Brother Windcloud Nine was stunned. “Huh. I saw them earlier. Where have they gone?”
“Everyone. Please calm down!”
Li Yi screamed as everyone fell into silence.
“Has anyone seen Ghostly Walker?”
“He was still here a moment ago…”
“What the f*ck. Where has he gone to?”
“Huh?”
Everyone started realizing it the moment Li Yi pointed it out.
Li Yi looked at the number of players around him and there were 2 out of 50 that were missing. Ghostly Walker and the Weapon Warrior had disappeared.
Li Yi started questioning again, “The Mountain, have you seen them?”
The Mountain was smiling as he rubbed his Orange Quality Staff in front of Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut. She did not even bother looking him in the eye. He responded only when he heard Li Yi asking him a question, “Is it possible that they have climbed up the mountain?”
There was only one path that led to the top of Mount Pantheon. Although the path was extremely similar to the Saint’s Twelve Golden Palaces, two of the Golden Palaces on Mount Pantheon had disappeared. This meant that there were only ten palaces left including the Ruler of Gods’ Palace.
Li Yi pondered for a moment before he spoke, “Let’s go up as well!”
While all 50 parties continued challenging the Seven Demon Gods, many players had left their parties due to the overwhelming strength the Seven Demon Gods possessed.
“Babe Zhang and Fire Ice, you guys continue fighting the boss. Remember to stop adding in random players and focus only on adding in players that you know.”
Li Yi sent a message to Zhang Yan and Fire Ice as he had decided to climb up the mountain.
He had a vague impression that the result of his party challenging the Seven Demon Gods would affect his own challenge’s outcome. That was because the party had yet to disband. Furthermore, he would be forced into battle whenever his party fought the Seven Demon Gods.
Since the party was not dissolving, it was only reasonable to add more skilled players and continued the battle!
Since Qian’er, Jiaojiao, and Little Elf from the Magical Realm were among the 50 players in the leaderboard, he could not rely on them. They too had formed their own parties and were fighting against the Seven Demon Gods.
Li Yi told his good friends to climb up the mountain together with him after sending the message.
The staircase up Mount Pantheon was a spiral staircase. Li Yi and his friends did not encounter any monsters as they spiraled up slowly and they arrived at the second palace safely.
The second palace was called the Illusion God’s Palace.
The entrance of the Illusion God’s Palace was glowing in rainbow colors and reminded the players that it was another Dungeon.
Brother Windcloud Nine laughed out loud. “Looks like we’ll have to battle on our own again!”
“Let’s go!”
Jiaojiao unsheathed her sword and was the first one to charge in.
“Take care!”
“You must clear it!”
“Lil Purple, there’s something I’ve been wanting to tell you for a long time, but I never got the chance to. Uhh…”
The Mountain rubbed his Orange Quality Staff as he looked at Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut sincerely. However, his actions did not seem to be effective as Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut entered the palace before he finished speaking.
Li Yi patted The Mountain’s shoulder. “It’s obvious that she’s not fond of you at all.”
“You don’t understand her.”
The Mountain shook his head and hummed a melody as he entered the dungeon.
Perhaps The Mountain was the most unique player among the 50 players in the leaderboard. While the others had a few elites in their parties, his party was filled with useless players and useless players only. There was not even a single player that could be remotely considered skilled.
The Mountain was able to advance solely due to his own strength.
“Good luck to everyone.”
Li Yi sent a message in the World Chat as he walked into the Illusion God’s Palace.
