Chapter 677

This is a vast ocean, with waves rising and falling, boundless and endless.

In the ocean.

Suddenly, five earth-shattering waves surged upward.

Five massive figures stood upon the great sea, emitting a terrifying aura.

Every figure—

had a grotesque and fearsome appearance, wielding tridents, imposing and majestic.

A ferocious and tyrannical aura swept across the sky, with waves crashing to the heavens!

"Superior beings, Sea-Scouring Yakshas."

Li Yue glanced over.

With a thought,

the figure of Queen Medusa, Gorgsa, appeared.

A perfect body, an exquisitely beautiful face, clad in an intricate black robe, holding a staff twisted like a serpent.

Her long black hair cascaded over her shoulders; a sweep of her gaze seemed as if the very void would be petrified.

"My great Lord."

Gorgsa bowed devoutly before Li Yue, a faint blush on her face.

"Kill them."

Li Yue, his expression calm, gave the order.

"As your divine command dictates."

Gorgsa replied respectfully, her gaze turning toward the five Sea-Scouring Yakshas.

Instantly—

silently and without sound.

An utterly bizarre power surged forth.

Beginning before her.

Within the reach of her sight.

All the seawater was petrified at an extremely rapid speed!

Those waves that had swept up to the heavens also froze in mid-air.

The pupils of the five Sea-Scouring Yakshas contracted sharply, fear appearing on their faces.

But this scene—

was frozen forever.

Their divine bodies, everything they were, were all petrified!

The terror of the Medusa.

Was undeniably displayed!

A single glance, and five Silver Demi-gods of the Fifth Transformation realm.

Had not a shred of resistance, easily petrified and annihilated!

—Congratulations, you have passed the Eighth Layer of the God-Ascension Tower. Do you wish to continue the challenge?

The characters materialized.

"Continue."

Li Yue's expression did not change in the slightest.

……

And outside the God-Ascension Tower.

The God of Slaughter strode forward, his face cold, radiating a terrifying killing intent from his entire body.

Wherever he passed,

all the Demi-gods hurriedly scattered, looking on with a touch of fear.

"The God of Slaughter, 'Eugene'!"

"He has come again!"

"Is he going to challenge the Seventh Layer again?"

"Will he surpass the one ranked first this time?"

"He should be able to; every time Eugene challenges, the time consumed decreases significantly!"

The gods chattered excitedly, their eyes gleaming with anticipation.

This—

was the struggle for first place in the God-Ascension Tower!

For them, who had long been challenging the God-Ascension Tower.

And who completely regarded the God-Ascension Tower as a whetstone for their believers.

It was truly the greatest grand event.

Moreover—

they were extremely curious about the one ranked first.

If the God of Slaughter, 'Eugene', were to seize first place.

That one—

Would they appear?

"This time, I will definitely become first."

The God of Slaying, Eugene, gazed at the Tower of Ascension before him, his eyes filled with coldness and confidence.

For this challenge.

He had begged his father for a long time.

Finally—

He had once again obtained a Hundred-Armed Giant of Bai Yin Demigod rank!

Enough to—

Drastically increase the speed of clearing the Seventh Layer!

First place.

Was absolutely his!
