Chapter 498

Originally, she intended to use this Pantheon as the Long Ni's trump card and ace in the hole, but who knew that the Ancient Kingdom and Dragon Valley would actually launch an attack on them at this critical juncture.

Caught off guard, and although the Long Ni had developed over these years, it was absolutely impossible for them to resist the top coalition of the two major forces on their own.

Under such circumstances, Song Lingsi had no choice but to pull the top powerhouses of the coalition into the Imaginary Space Pantheon. This number was also the limit she could achieve at present, and it was even under the premise of catching the opponent off guard.

Even though she hadn't fully cleared the Pantheon, and even though such an approach had unfavorable aspects for her, she had no other choice.

The fortunate point was that her clearing progress far exceeded others, especially since others had no relevant information about the Pantheon. She had already cleared to the forty-fifth layer, while those coalition members she had tricked in—the Southern Territory Domain Lord Yan Qian and Dragon Valley Dragon Lord Ziyun, who were similar in strength to her—were now only just breaking through the tenth layer of the Pantheon, with quite a gap in progress from her.

Moreover, as the number of layers broken through increases, the difficulty of the Pantheon will constantly increase. She herself had also repeatedly cleared it several times before she could clear to the forty-fifth layer.

Yan Qian and Ziyun absolutely had no way to catch up to her.

But the sentence the shadow just said made Song Lingsi very concerned. Even she, before this, was because she had obtained the shadow's help that she knew of the existence of the Imaginary Space and could enter the Pantheon to clear it.

However, the shadow just said that someone else had entered the Pantheon, which had to make Song Lingsi vigilant.

She had only tricked the top combatants of the coalition like Yan Qian and Ziyun into the Pantheon at the very beginning. After that, she had never left the Pantheon, but was constantly clearing the layers here.

Song Lingsi was very clear that only by fully clearing the Pantheon, mastering the Pantheon, and controlling the life and death of everyone in the Pantheon could she reverse the situation of the Long Ni being besieged.

Therefore, she was very certain that this person who suddenly entered the Pantheon was definitely not tricked in by her!

940, Pantheon Authority, I Thank You

"No need to be too worried. The one who entered is just an Immortal Realm Magic Card master, and it looks like it seems to be an Immortal Realm that just successfully broke through." Although the shadow was also a bit surprised at Lu Li's arrival at the very beginning, it quickly returned to calm.

Let alone just an Immortal Realm that just broke through, even if it were an Undying Realm like Song Lingsi, Yan Qian, and Ziyun who entered, the shadow would at most be slightly surprised. Besides that, it wouldn't have too much of a feeling.

Unless the person who entered was a Supreme, only then would the shadow feel wary.

What is most important now is to let Song Lingsi clear the Pantheon and master the Pantheon. Only then can his subsequent plans be implemented.

"An Immortal Realm that just successfully broke through?" It's a pity that this explanation from the shadow made Song Lingsi even more confused. The timing of this Immortal Realm's appearance was too sensitive, which couldn't help but make Song Lingsi have thoughts.

"It's just an Immortal Realm Magic Card master who just broke through. There is no need to make such a fuss." The shadow didn't seem too satisfied with Song Lingsi's performance, and its voice also increased quite a bit.

"The Imaginary Space is a collection of various possibilities that have not happened in reality. That is to say, no matter who it is, it is possible to enter the Imaginary Space."

Even if this possibility is minimal, even with the long development history of the Magic Card civilization, only a handful of people have entered the Imaginary Space, but such a possibility does exist.

"Don't forget, you were also able to enter the Imaginary Space and enter this Pantheon to clear it because of me."

Song Lingsi herself was the best example. If not for the existence of the shadow, she would have had no way to enter the Imaginary Space, let alone think of clearing the Pantheon and using the Pantheon as a trump card to fight against the two major coalition forces.

It's just a pity that the time left for him is not much.

"I understand." Although this shadow had given her quite a few benefits, and even gave her the opportunity of the Imaginary Space Pantheon, Song Lingsi seemed to have a natural submission to this shadow. Hearing the shadow's words, she nodded silently.

It is hard to imagine that Song Lingsi is already a nine-star Undying Realm existence. With this level of existence, as long as a Supreme does not appear, she has enough strength to roam anywhere in the entire Magic Card civilization.

But now, Song Lingsi with such strength has a submissive attitude toward this shadow.

In the distance, the Magic Card spirits she summoned erupted with even stronger combat power.

Although the strength of the Magic Card spirits themselves was suppressed quite a bit after entering the Imaginary Space, for Magic Card masters, Magic Card spirits were still their main combat means.

Especially since the Imaginary Space was very bizarre, Song Lingsi didn't want to take the field herself unless it was a last resort. After all, in a sense, Song Lingsi herself was the strongest combat power.

If she took the field here, the subsequent clearing would become even more difficult.

"It's good that you understand." Seeing Song Lingsi's action, the shadow's tone stabilized a bit. "Remember, as long as you successfully master the Pantheon in the end, although you might not be able to defeat a Supreme, you will have quite a bit of confidence to escape from the hands of a Supreme."

"Besides that, the Pantheon is also the final unsealing means. Don't forget my identity. As long as you successfully complete the final unsealing for me in the future, then you will be the greatest contributor to the new Dragon Valley."

"Even breaking through the Undying Realm and achieving the Supreme Realm is not impossible!"

This final statement from the shadow made Song Lingsi's aura become significantly heavier, and her eyes also flickered with uncertain light.

Clearly, she was moved by the shadow's words.

However, the Supreme Realm—in the entire Magic Card civilization, I am afraid no one can refuse this temptation.

Not to mention that Song Lingsi is already a nine-star Undying Realm Magic Card master, and she has more hope of being promoted to the Supreme Realm than the vast majority of Magic Card masters.

And the shadow's statement that she could break through to the Supreme Realm did not make Song Lingsi have any doubts, which was enough to show that the shadow's identity was very special.

"It's time to clear the next layer." A moment later, Song Lingsi finally completed the clearing of the forty-fifth layer of the Pantheon. Subsequently, this Undying Realm expert began to work without stopping, intending to clear the next layer of the Pantheon.

If it were in the past, she might have chosen to rest for a while. After all, reaching these last few layers, the difficulty of clearing each layer had increased quite a bit, which was also quite a burden for her.

But now, because of the coalition of the Ancient Kingdom and Dragon Valley, plus the shadow's statement just now, it indeed gave her quite a bit of stimulation. Therefore, after completing one layer of clearing this time, Song Lingsi intended to continue clearing the next layer.

"Before this, you might be able to create some obstacles for others." The shadow did not stop Song Lingsi's idea of continuous clearing, but it put forward another suggestion.

"Under the condition that the Pantheon is cleared for the first time, every time ten layers are cleared, the first clearer can obtain a certain amount of authority here."

……

"Although you haven't completed the clearing of the final layer and cannot obtain the final authority, you have no way to directly decide the life and death of others."

"However, you have already completed the clearing of forty layers before this, and you have already obtained quite a bit of authority over the Pantheon."

"Now, using this authority, you can at least cause more obstacles and influence to others, slowing down their clearing progress."

"Even, perhaps you can cause casualties to these people, including that Immortal Realm who suddenly broke in."

The shadow's words were like a devil's whisper, constantly echoing in Song Lingsi's ears.

Although it was just an Immortal Realm that just broke through, the shadow felt that the opponent's sudden appearance would not affect the current situation, but just in case, it was best to nip this possibility in the bud.

Moreover, the shadow inciting Song Lingsi to use the Pantheon's authority actually had another reason, and there was no need for Song Lingsi to know the other reason.

Everything he had done since appearing before Song Lingsi naturally had his own purpose.

This Long Ni Undying Realm expert was merely a chess piece to achieve the shadow's purpose.

"Good!" Not knowing the shadow's true thoughts, plus the shadow's identity, Song Lingsi didn't think much and nodded in agreement, while simultaneously using the authority of the Pantheon she currently controlled.

941, Pantheon Guardian, the Map Has Become Refined!

【Pantheon Guardian】

Race: Guardian Spirit

Quality: Rare

Level: Nine-star

Skills: Omitted

Description: The guardian of the Pantheon, guarding everything in the Pantheon. Everyone who enters the Pantheon will be regarded as an intruder of the Pantheon and will be attacked by the Pantheon Guardian. Only by defeating the layer master of the current layer can one open the portal to enter the next layer. Every ten layers cleared, the first successful clearer can obtain a certain amount of authority over the Pantheon.

"Pantheon Guardian, every ten layers cleared, one can obtain a certain amount of authority over the Pantheon. Once all layers are cleared, one can obtain all authority over the Pantheon."

After entering the Pantheon, Lu Li was instantly attacked by the guardian spirit named Pantheon Guardian. Without him having to open his mouth, Lilithmon, Antoneva, and the others had already greeted them.

However, not everyone rushed out. Ashilia, who had always had a "three-no" expression, continued to stay by Lu Li's side, acting as if she were his bodyguard.

"The situation seems to be more troublesome than imagined." The appearance of the Pantheon Guardian allowed Lu Li to obtain more useful information.

Originally, he thought that only by fully clearing the Pantheon could one obtain control here, but he didn't expect that every ten layers cleared, one could obtain a portion of the authority.

Thinking about it this way, perhaps the difficulty for him and the coalition forces pulled in by the Long Ni to clear the Pantheon had increased quite a bit.

After all, the one with the fastest clearing progress in the Pantheon now was undoubtedly the Long Ni. Lu Li didn't need to guess; the opponent would definitely trip them up while they were clearing. This was inevitable.

If it were Lu Li, he would also choose to do this. He might even be able to get rid of quite a few people.

"Besides that, there is another point. Wanting to complete the clearing of the current layer requires finishing off the layer master of this layer, but wanting to find the layer master is probably really not an easy thing."

Lu Li also noticed at this time that the area they were in was like a room. Except for the side they had just entered from, the other three sides had a closed door.

Clearly, even if they finished off the Pantheon Guardian of this room, they still couldn't open the portal to the next layer.

More importantly, who knew if the next area was also such a configuration? This was equivalent to being blind in both eyes, acting blindly.

And this was only the first layer of the Pantheon. If they couldn't find a solution, then they could forget about catching up to the Long Ni's progress.

"Destiny will guide us." Hearing Lu Li's words, Ashilia spoke silently.

Even though she had retrieved her lost memories, Ashilia still didn't have too much expression in her daily life, not much different from the past.

"You know the location of the layer master?" But the girl's words made Lu Li look toward the other party. He heard Ashilia's meaning.

Destiny—this was one of the abilities Ashilia inherited from her parents. This ability could be said to be quite ethereal.

Even though he held the ultimate power of Destiny Force because of the contract relationship with Ashilia, he still hadn't understood this kind of power until now.

Hmm, perhaps a god-stick would have a higher adaptability in this regard.

Without replying, Ashilia raised the artifact "Clotho's Needle" in her hand. On this artifact that looked very exquisite and didn't look like a weapon at all, a red line of destiny gradually emerged.

Subsequently, the red line of destiny extended and finally pointed to the door on the left-hand side.

Clearly, this was the area where the layer master was located, or rather, the correct path to the area where the layer master was located.

"OK, then the next direction of advance will be left to you." Seeing this scene, Lu Li directly handed the work of finding the way to Ashilia.

He hadn't expected that Destiny Force would have such an ability. This was perhaps the best explanation for the sentence Ashilia said before: "Destiny will guide us."

This was properly a living, breathing artificial map!

Regarding Lu Li's arrangement, Ashilia didn't say much, but she stared at the other party silently. ===== CHAPTER 499 =====
