Heibei has become a lot more honest, and is ready to find out what is going on with this guy who is talking? Even if he is not a barbarian king, his strength cannot be underestimated.
"Ta Nan, he is my new owner after all. If you kill him, I will go back to live in captivity."
The Terrible Lord was dissatisfied, but he had a new understanding of Downton's tenacity. If it had been anyone else who had been struck by Tanan's soul, he would have died long ago.
"Isn't Tanan dead? What happened to this guy?"
It would be strange if Downton wasn't angry after he was almost killed, so his tone was quite unkind.
"Stop being brave!"
Twilight gave Downton a reproachful look and put her palm on the wound to treat him.
"It is the soul clone of Tanan, and its duty is to guard the entire tomb." The Fearful Lord explained, "If you want to leave alive, you must pass its trial, otherwise you will die here."
Heibei curled his lips, feeling extremely depressed. The Holy Coffin was really powerful, and a clone could suppress his own, the generalissimo.
"What trial?"
Downton asked, but Tanan did not answer. Instead, a sword energy containing laws suddenly appeared and struck the ring on his finger.
boom!
Not only did Homer return to his grimoire form, but the door to the war space was forced open. Sissi seemed to be grabbed by an invisible hand and thrown out in a panic.
"From now on, your life is my property. Any self-harm or suicide will be severely punished!"
Tanan is a tyrant, and his tone is full of irrefutable. Just because of fear, Sissi grabbed Downton's arm and called his name in a worried voice. She was attacked by the soul and held her hands in pain.
Head rolling.
"It's okay. I will protect you!"
Downton squatted on the ground and hugged Sissi tightly. Feeling the girl's trembling body, he couldn't help but roar, "Tanan, you can kill us, but you can't insult us. Come out, I want to fight with you."
You engage in a life-or-death duel."
"Haha, domineering!"
The Lord of Fear teased that anyone who dared to talk to Tanan like this would be torn into pieces by him.
"Hmph, even though he is an insignificant fish, his courage is much stronger than that black dragon." Tanan did not punish Downton this time. There has been no challenger for tens of thousands of years. It was also going crazy out of boredom.
Okay, just use these people to entertain you.
"Black dragon?"
Twilight frowned and glanced at Heibei. This guy is one of the four kings of the Black Flame Pope. If it is a black dragon, then the Pope is probably also a dragon.
"Oooh, Downton, I'm afraid!"
Sissi hugged Downton and burst into tears. The pain just now was so terrible. Her whole body was twitching, as if she had been stuffed into a meat grinder, causing her to suffocate within ten seconds.
.
"Don't be afraid, there is Twilight and me, even if we die, we will fall in front of you!"
Downton patted Sissi's back to comfort her.
"Hmph, you can't even protect yourself, and you still have time to worry about others. Are your nerves made of steel?"
Tanan sneered.
"I don't know if my nerves are made of steel, but I know you must be a coward who dares not show up."
Downton replied.
"Human. Can you say a few words?"
Heibei scolded Downton. He was worried about annoying Tanan and in turn harming himself. The best way now is to keep silent, collect as much information as possible, and then figure out how to crack it.
Downton's answer was simple. He gave Heibei a middle finger. If it weren't for this guy, he wouldn't have to suffer this kind of crime.
Heibei was furious, but due to Tanan's threat, he did not dare to teach Downton a lesson.
"What is the content of the trial?"
Twilight changed the subject.
"It's very simple. If you beat me, you can leave."
Tanan said simply, but even Twilight and Heibei gasped in shock. This soul is the master who can teach Heibei a lesson, and his strength is unfathomable.
"Don't worry, if it fights with you, its rank will be lowered to the point where it can wait for you."
Fear of the King explained.
"Can we compete with one of the eight holy coffins? Shouldn't we feel honored?" Downton sneered.
"Hmph, you don't know how blessed you are. This is an opportunity that you can't buy at a sky-high price. Among the eight holy coffins, the Barbarian King ranks first in melee combat. If you learn 30% of it, it will be enough for you to become famous and have glory for generations.
Worried!"
The Terrible Monarch hates iron for not being made into steel. As long as Downton comes out of here alive, even the continent's top rising star will have a chance to challenge him.
"What if we can't win?"
Sissi asked timidly. She was self-aware. Even if her luck level was off the charts, she had no chance of defeating the opponent.
"As long as one of you can beat me, you can leave." Tanan was quite talkative, "Of course, I can't let you keep challenging, so the time limit is three years. If you still can't win by then, you trash can go.
died."
“What does the challenge cost?”
Twilight knew that there was no free lunch in the sky, and letting Tanan be a sparring partner was no longer something that could be settled with gold coins.
"Haha, as a barbarian king, I once owned the entire world. What do you have that I covet?" Tanan said disdainfully, "Just pay for your soul. No matter how much it is, as long as you give out a part of your soul, you can challenge me."
"Then let's begin!"
Downton couldn't wait. Now the tombs were full of barbarian soul soldiers and people from the Black Flame Church. He had to rescue the Walnuts.
"Don't worry, listen to me. When I take away your souls, I will apply the magic of blood wrath. You will suffer a pain a hundred times more cruel than Lingchi's execution. Although I will use the power of law to prevent you from being hurt by the drama.
Sudden death from pain, but if you can't bear it and choose to die, I can help you."
Tanan explained that there were geniuses who came in before, but the pain was so excruciating that most people chose death to escape.
"anything else?"
Downton is mentally prepared.
"After I get your soul, I won't devour it. Instead, I will put it on the altar and accept the burning of the sacrificial fire. So the moment you hand over your soul, you will continue to suffer tremendous pain. Until
Get out alive or it won't stop."
Tanan made an understatement, but Sissi was so frightened that she hugged her shoulders with one hand and secretly pulled Downton, "Don't be impulsive, think of other solutions first?"
The soul is burned. It is known as the most cruel punishment. It is enough to make people unable to live or die. Even evil warlocks do not use it because the soul of the killed person has a high chance of forming a resentful spirit and turning into a curse.
Because it is wrapped around the head.
"Come on, take a soul and start the challenge!"
Downton yelled and looked around. This is an empty twelve-sided hall, with an arch on each side. Inside are areas with different functions, including living areas, altars, etc. The arch in front is the most
It's magnificent, and what should be placed inside is Tanan's coffin.
"good!"
Tanan didn't talk nonsense, red light spots scattered in the hall, and then condensed into a barbarian.
Everyone's eyes widened. Even Heibei was no exception. After all, this was a legendary strongman. The epic hero who defeated the evil god of the abyss.
"Is this Tanan?"
Sissi was a little disappointed. This barbarian was not as muscular as expected, but rather malnourished, and he was only 1.8 meters tall. In the human world, he was not considered short. But in the normal human world, he was about 2.5 meters tall.
He is a third-rate cripple among savages.
Tanan's face has strong edges and corners. Although it is mediocre, it has a natural and intimidating aura that makes people unable to look directly at him.
"How can we fight this?"
Downton looked away, because as long as he looked at Tanan, his eyes would feel a burning pain, but he couldn't care less about complaining at the next moment, because as the Barbarian King waved, a ray of soul came from his chest.
Flying out, at the same time, endless pain swept through the body like a tsunami.
ah!
With Downton's endurance, he knelt on the ground in pain, holding his head in his hands and wailing.
"What's wrong?" Sissi went to help Downton, but was pushed to the side by his arm. "Twilight, think of a solution!"
Twilight threw out the calming spell, but it was of no use.
Downton was trembling, and his clothes were soaked with cold sweat in an instant, dripping out and forming a puddle on the floor.
"So scary?"
Black shell teeth.
"Is there no way?"
Homer whispered.
"Shh, keep your voice down, I don't want to be swallowed by this soul." The cheap god was very vigilant, "I can't do anything, I just hope that Downton can survive it!"
"Are you a god?"
Homer questioned.
"Ta Nan can kill gods. Besides, my divine fire has been extinguished. What do you want me to do?" The cheap god has a way, but it requires it to restore its divine power, and this test is obviously personal.
Help from others is completely ineffective.
"I am okay!"
Downton was trembling, holding on to the ground and forcing himself to stand up.
Seeing Downton's distressed expression, Homer suddenly couldn't bear it anymore.
"This is his choice. If you survive it, it will be a smooth road. If you can't survive it, then die." At this moment, the cheap god was surprisingly calm.
Compared to Homer, the cheap god who was once a god is more calm after all.
"Stop trying to be brave. You can't stand firmly like this. How can you fight?" Sissi held Downton's arm, crying anxiously, and yelled at Twilight, "Why don't you persuade him?"
“Someone has to try!”
Twilight was helpless. If Downton didn't take action, she would take action. After all, if she didn't challenge, she wouldn't be able to get any information, so naturally she wouldn't be able to formulate tactics.
"As long as you sacrifice your soul, it doesn't matter if you don't want to fight." Tanan waved, "Come on!"
Downton took a deep breath and stepped forward to charge, but due to the severe pain in his body, all his movements were distorted.
The pain of his soul being separated was a hundred times more painful than any pain he had endured before. In this state, let alone fighting, even thinking was much slower.
Downton did not faint because of the death saving throw of Blood Fury and the support of Lonely Mountain Fury.
The domination is shattered!
Downton punched hard, but before it could reach Tanan, the Barbarian King punched him, blasting his chest.
"Downton!"
Seeing that Downton had a big hole in his chest, he flew straight out and fell against the wall, with blood dripping from his body. Sissi screamed in fear. (To be continued...)
