Chapter 459: Death Game

Damn it, the Death God was already hard enough to deal with.

Now that the old silver coin has fused with the Death God's Soul, it has become even harder to deal with.

"I have always wondered how you managed to hide the whereabouts of the Thunder Dragon Cat back then."

"And how you made the Thunder Dragon Cat get rid of the Death Curse."

"Causing me to go to such great lengths to find the whereabouts of the Thunder Dragon Cat."

The Death God had a high and mighty air about it.

"Honestly, with your head held so high, my neck is getting tired just looking at you."

"Sky-Swallowing Pelican, use Space Cut."

"Nether Hell Wolf, attack, Hellfire."

The Nether Hell Wolf sprang out from Ye Bai's shadow and entered the Space Rift in one go.

The next second, a Space Rift opened behind the Death God, and Hellfire emerged from the Space Rift.

"It's just Hellfire; it's not like I haven't seen it before. A mere parlor trick."

The Death God opened its white Guzhua and blocked the Hellfire.

The black flames scorched the Guzhua, making a crackling sound.

The Death God was suddenly very surprised.

"That's not right. I have now fused with the Death God, and the Death God is an eighth-rank Pet Beast; how could it not even resist Hellfire?"

Just as the Death God was stunned, Dahui had already raised the Thunder God Axe and slashed fiercely toward the direction where the Death God was.

A sound of tearing through the air rang out.

Endless Thunder Light surged toward the Death God.

"Thunder Dragon Cat, I am the one who created you; how dare you attack me!!!"

At this moment, the Death God was extremely furious.

It raised the black scythe in its hand high and swung it toward the Thunder Dragon Cat.

A black light blade shot out and collided with the thunder blade.

"Damn, this is Thunder Island; the Thunder Dragon Cat has a natural advantage here."

The Death God suddenly realized something.

"Thunder Dragon Cat, you are disobedient, actually daring to make a move against me."

"However, even if that is the case, so what?"

"You have the ability to resist me, but your companions will not."

"I can completely take your companions as my targets."

"Right, Pet Beast Master?"

The Death God held the scythe high and used Void Flash; the next second, it appeared beside Ye Bai.

Just as the scythe was raised high and about to hit Ye Bai, the Beichen Sky Wolf Blade automatically protected his body.

Only two clanging sounds were heard, and the Death God's scythe actually developed two notches.

"What is going on?"

"A Soul Weapon is actually sharper than the scythe?"

The Death God felt that its brain was not working well enough.

In fact, the side effects of the Death God leader and the Death God's Soul fusing together had also appeared.

The Death God's intelligence had dropped significantly.

He had lost the ability to think.

"Thanks, Beichen Sky Wolf Blade."

Ye Bai instantly performed Armor Transformation, protecting himself.

A Bronze Ancient Sword also appeared in his hand.

"All demons and monsters, retreat before me!"

A dragon's roar emanated from the Bronze Ancient Sword.

Countless Ten Thousand Dragon Slashes shot out from it, circling in the air and forming a Blade Storm.

"Bronze Ancient Sword, Blade Storm."

Endless blades mixed together, forming a super-large Hurricane.

Like dragons emerging from the sea, they lunged at the Death God.

The Death God hurriedly used Etherealization, turning its body into a mass of smoke.

But as the Ten Thousand Dragon Slashes passed through one after another, the smoke became thinner and thinner.

Screams followed.

"It seems this is the power of the Ten Thousand Dragon Slash."

"Form the sword array."

Under the command of the Bronze Ancient Sword, the Ten Thousand Dragon Slashes sank into the rocks one after another.

Bolts of Thunder Light shot into the sky and merged into the Ten Thousand Dragon Slashes.

An invisible restraint trapped the Death God, making it unable to perform Etherealization normally.

"Death God, surrender obediently."

"This is Thunder Island; light-attribute skills are everywhere, and your abilities are weakened by at least thirty percent."

"After entering the magic array, suppressed by the thunder-attribute magic array, your strength is suppressed by another thirty percent."

"This is also Dahui's home turf; no matter how you fight, you won't win."

Ye Bai crossed his arms over his chest and said coldly.

"Hmph."

The Death God let out a cold snort and did not say much more.

It only vaguely felt that it had been a bit arrogant.

"If I die here, then it is completely over."

"But there is only one chance."

The Death God understood that he was undergoing a deep fusion; once the fusion was complete, his Soul would no longer be a human Soul.

This went against his original intention.

To flee is death, and not to flee is also death, so the Death God decided to make a desperate strike.

"Haha, you have truly annoyed me."

"I originally just wanted to take away the Soul of the Thunder Cat, but you trapped me here directly."

"I have changed my mind now; I want to harvest your Soul, merge your Soul with mine, and let you feel the pain of being scorched by the fire of Hell at every moment."

"I am very curious about what kind of identity you actually possess."

"As far as I know, an ordinary person cannot climb up this Thunder Island."

Ye Bai smiled: "More than one person has said that, but they have never succeeded once; you can try it too."

"As for my identity, you do not need to know; I do not speak to those about to die."

After hearing this, a surge of anger welled up in the Death God.

A large amount of black mist emanated from its body, gradually forming Soul Fire in mid-air.

"My body contains the Souls I have collected, and there are even the remnant Souls of gods inside."

"You have heard of the Death Game, right?"

"I will use my Soul as the price to initiate the Death Game."

"I will choose three powerful Souls to engage in battle."

"For every round lost, the loser will have a portion of their Soul harvested by the Death God."

"After three rounds, the loser will lose everything."

"Regardless of whether you are willing to duel with me or not, when I unfold the black mist Domain, the Death Game will arrive."

Ye Bai was speechless; did the Death God think it was the nameless Pharaoh, with this talk of a Death Game?

However, pawning one's Soul upon losing was somewhat interesting.

The black mist gradually spread, and Ye Bai also felt his Soul emerging from his body.

"Come, duel with me."

A phantom statue of the Death God stood tall in mid-air, and a balance suddenly appeared in its hands.

Three more phantom Soul Fires landed on the two ends of the balance.

A hexagram Barrier appeared beneath Ye Bai's feet.

Good heavens, even the Orichalcos Barrier has appeared?

"Haha, once you have lost all three rounds, your body will be sealed within the Barrier, and I will place you in the fire of Hell to wail for a lifetime."

Ye Bai was speechless; just a moment ago it said it would devour him, and this Death God was full of lies in every sentence, so he did not know which one was true.

How did that saying go? If you cannot resist, then enjoy it.

"I want to know the rules of the game."

"As the initiator of the Death Game, you should know the rules of the game."

Ye Bai asked the Death God.

"Indeed, according to the rules, I must tell you the rules of the game."

"Actually, you are so smart that even if I did not say it, you would be able to guess."

"The Death Game cannot be paused once it begins."

"I will draw from all the Exotic Beast Souls I have defeated, while you will draw from the Souls of your Pet Beasts."

"These are all drawn randomly, and I cannot tamper with them."

"We will conduct the match under the witness of the contract; the winning side can automatically obtain the Exotic Beast's Soul, or choose to obtain a Soul that does not belong to that Exotic Beast."

"A total of three rounds will decide the winner."

"Everything is random."

"You are clear on this now, right?"

At this moment, Ye Bai had one more question: "I would like to ask, if you lose all three rounds, how will you deal with so many Souls floating in the air?"

The Death God sneered: "I will not lose, so do not be a jinx."

Ye Bai was somewhat speechless: "Then let me rephrase the question: if these Souls under your control lose control, what will happen?"

The Death God answered immediately: "These Souls will return to the kingdom of heaven, or possess other Pet Beasts."

"However, on Thunder Island, their Souls are easily struck by violent lightning and subsequently torn into Soul Fragments."

"But you will not have that chance."

"The Death Game has officially started."

Ye Bai felt the black mist circulating within his body.

The black mist gradually formed chains, binding Ye Bai.

"Do not act rashly, I am fine."

Ye Bai's Pet Beasts all wanted to rush over to protect him, but they were stopped by Ye Bai's shout.

He was afraid of breaking the rules of the Death Game.

"Haha, just a little bit more and I would have succeeded. As long as your Pet Beast rushed over, it would have violated the taboo of the Death Game."

"What a pity, I missed an opportunity to ascend to the heavens in a single step."

"Come out, Destiny Great Roulette."

The enormous roulette was spinning crazily, and before long, it pointed to the name of an Exotic Beast.

Scorpion Lion King.

A Scorpion Lion King with a massive build and pale blue flames radiating from its entire body appeared.

It had a pair of large bat wings on its back, strong and powerful limbs, and its tail was a hook.

【Name: Scorpion Lion King】

【Gender: Male】

【Attribute: Dark/Poison】

【Trait: Violent Toxin: Produces terrifying Highly Toxic substances within the body.】

【Level: Seven-Tier Peak】

Poisonous Claw (Proficient): The Lijua possesses Highly Toxic properties; touching an opponent will cause the opponent to quickly enter a poisoned state.

Blood Sucking (Proficient): By using sharp teeth in its mouth to pierce the prey's neck and drain blood, it can restore their stamina and heal injuries.

Lion's Intimidation (Proficient): Emits a Soul-based intimidation to shock the opponent, having a certain degree of effect in causing paralysis.

Combined with the talent of Fearless, it can form the Lion's Fearless; all Pet Beasts enveloped in the Fearless Aura will have their combat power significantly increased.

Lion's Roar (Mastered): Emits a deafening roar from its mouth to shock the enemy.

Majesty (Mastered): Uses the lion head radiating a fierce aura to shock the enemy, with a certain probability of causing the enemy to fall into a cowering state.】

【Evolution Path 1: Scorpion Lion Emperor, defeat six Scorpion Lion Kings to complete the final evolution】

【Evaluation: A Scorpion Lion King whose Soul has been stripped away; even if granted a new life in the Death Game, it is still manipulated by the Death Game.】

Ye Bai did not know how to proceed next.

The Death God coughed a few times: "You should be like me and shout out Destiny Great Roulette."

"It will randomly draw a Pet Beast with strength similar to the Scorpion Lion King."

Ye Bai frowned; if he had to shout out Destiny Great Roulette like someone with eighth-grader syndrome, he would feel like dying of embarrassment on the spot.

"Don't delay time, the Death Game is starting in thirty seconds."

"Once it starts, you won't have time to make a choice, and it will have to be randomized by the God of Contracts."

The Death God said quite impatiently.

Fine.

Ye Bai could only grit his teeth and shout "Destiny Great Roulette."

The Destiny Great Roulette began to spin.

Finally, it landed on the name of the Sunflower Fairy.

"It actually landed on the Sunflower Fairy; this round is a bit interesting."

Among the generals in Ye Bai's hands, the Sunflower Fairy's combat power is also among the best.

Its strength is no worse than the Myriad-Change Butterfly, it's just that the Sunflower Fairy doesn't like to fight.

The Sunflower Fairy flew out from the Pet Beast Space.

"This tiny sprite, one Poison Needle from the Scorpion Lion King is enough to annihilate its Soul."

"This time, I'm really lucky."

This is underestimating the Sunflower Fairy, Ye Bai sneered.

Since that's the case, let me show you what real strength is.

"Sunflower Fairy, Holy Light Shine."

A piercing light emerged from the Sunflower Fairy's body and spread directly across the entire arena.

The Scorpion Lion King's eyes suddenly encountered the intense light and could not open them at all.

By the time the Scorpion Lion King was able to open its eyes, a massive vine Clone appeared.

"How did so many Clones appear all of a sudden? You're cheating, cheating!"

The Death God appeared quite angry.

"Cheating?"

"This is under the witness of the God of Contracts, how could there be cheating?"

"What are you thinking, Death God? Is your brain gone?"

Ye Bai coldly mocked the Death God.

"Hmph, if you won't let me have an easy time, I won't let you have an easy time either."

"Go, Scorpion Lion King, Poisonous Claw."

The Scorpion Lion King's front claws were strong and powerful, and venom seeped out from them.

It slammed forward heavily, and a deep gash appeared on the vine.

"Scorpion Lion King, find the location of that sprite and kill it!"

The Death God issued a new command.

He must win three consecutive rounds to obtain Ye Bai's Soul.

Moreover, the Death God used the rules to secretly tamper with the order of the Pet Beasts entering the field.

That Thunder Chinchilla will certainly enter the arena, and its Soul will be harvested by him on the spot.

"Human, I just want to see the look of frustration on your face."

"Honestly, I quite liked the unruly expression you had just now."

"It's a pity, how could a mere sprite contend with the Scorpion-Tailed Lion King?"
