"Would you be willing to die for them?"
The sound rang in their ears again:
"If given the chance, I would risk my life. But if it's impossible, I will live on and then bring them back to life at all costs."
Kong Tianxu's tone became even more indifferent.
Cain's gaze softened further, and Xu Tianzhen's body trembled, her eyes flashing with astonishing emotion. Meanwhile, in the realm of gods, the God of Life sensed the subtle admiration emanating from the God of Destruction beside him.
"What three oddballs!"
The calm voice paused for a moment, then said, "Your emotions are complex, but none of you are lying. You've passed the first test of sincerity."
"Is that all?" Kong Tianxu's suspicions were further confirmed, and his mind began to stir.
They were among the last to be selected, so after saying that in a calm voice, they immediately continued:
"The first round of sincerity is over. The second round of adventure begins."
All the cocoons of light became transparent, and everyone's sight and hearing returned. They looked at each other—Xiao Hongchen, who had been slapped hard for his loose tongue, Meng Hongchen, who looked dazed and seemed to be thinking about something, and Kong Tangyu, whose face was flushed red. They were all there.
A chilling, murderous aura permeated the air. The ground roulette wheel underwent a dramatic change. It had ten squares, but this time, each square contained an additional mark. The ten marks were all different, yet not too difficult to recognize. For instance, Kong Tianxu recognized the sword-shaped mark among them; it was related to battle.
In addition, there were other markings, such as human lips, which made Kong Tianxu feel a chill.
However, at the same time he saw the mark, the eerie purple light under the God of Destruction's cloak began to fluctuate again, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Ning Rongrong's forehead.
Damn it, I forgot to retract my divine power's influence on the Xuan Tian Bao Jian—
"Could you explain to me what this thing is?"
Ning Rongrong quickly removed the changes she had made to Qiankun Wenqing Valley. Instantly, several strange marks turned into nine-colored light spots and disappeared.
That calm voice rang in everyone's ears once again:
"Adventure Level Two, Begin. You will proceed one by one to Level Two. One person at a time. Once you begin, a light will illuminate beneath your feet. The roulette wheel will spin, and the moment it stops, what lies before you will be governed by specific rules. If you succeed, you pass; if you fail, you enter the Deep Adventure—a life-threatening adventure. If you still cannot pass, you die. After the item selected by the roulette wheel appears, you can also directly choose to enter the Deep Adventure. Now, let's begin. You're the first one."
Under the watchful gaze of the God of Destruction, Ning Rongrong nervously announced the rules and simultaneously revoked all her influence over the Xuan Tian Bao Jian. However, in her haste, she felt as if she had forgotten something.
A golden light shone on the circular ground where Kong Tianxu stood, and the enormous wheel began to spin on its own. The various symbols on it became blurred due to its rapid rotation.
At this moment, no one could communicate; they could only watch helplessly as the roulette wheel spun.
Gradually, the speed of the roulette wheel slowed down, and the symbols kept passing by Kong Tianxu.
He didn't know what this second trial would bring. Although in the original story, the Shrek Seven Devils all passed through the Valley of Love and Destiny without any major incidents, it seemed that Ning Rongrong was secretly letting them pass. He didn't expect that he, as a stranger, would also receive such care. However, it seemed that Ning Rongrong didn't cause any inexplicable trouble this time, unlike in the original story.
Was he uninterested in his group? Or was it that he had a divine power, which he narrowed his eyes, eager to test his soul power?
Finally, after spinning rapidly, the roulette wheel gradually came to a stop, and the small, one-tenth of the fan-shaped area in front of him lit up, along with the symbols attached to it.
This symbol looks a bit strange; it's three fists, one larger and the other two smaller.
"Defeat the two chosen opponents. Win and advance. Lose and enter a deeper adventure. If the opponent wins, the roulette continues, and the adventure difficulty decreases in subsequent choices. If the opponent loses, the roulette continues, and the adventure difficulty increases."
The roulette wheel turned gold, but this time two beams of golden light swept across it rapidly.
One against two? Everyone looked at each other, wondering who among those present, besides Old Ma and that mysterious old man whose strength was unknown, could be his opponent.
The two golden beams stopped one after the other. Seeing where they stopped, Kong Tianxu's heart sank slightly.
Amidst a flash of golden light, Cain and Xu Tianzhen entered the arena. The three stood facing each other in a corner-like formation.
"I concede." Cain said without the slightest hesitation.
"I concede too." Xu Tianzhen followed closely behind, staring at her toes and refusing to look at the two men's faces.
Kong Tianxu moved his lips but didn't speak. He knew that it would be useless to say anything now.
Sure enough, the voice, tinged with excitement, immediately rang out:
"Breaking the rules and deliberately giving way will punish you by sending you directly into deep adventure mode."
Three beams of light flashed, and before Kong Tianxu and the two women could even argue, they took the three of them away.
The remaining crowd stared in disbelief. From within the silent golden platform, the voice, tinged with surprise and uncertainty, suddenly rang out again:
"How could this be—"
"The deep adventure begins. Adventure theme: Together We Stand. This is the end of slaughter, the abyss of sin. Walk this hellish path to pass the deep adventure. The environment you are in is real; if you die during the test, you truly die."
"Note: Soul Skills are not allowed here."
The voice, seemingly emanating from the depths of their souls, reappeared, only this time as a gentle male voice. However, the two women clearly didn't have time to dwell on the change in voice; instead, they immediately began to observe their surroundings.
Everything around was a faint blood red, and beyond the circular platform with a diameter of five meters at their feet lay an abyss.
In addition, a narrow path, less than half a foot wide and barely wide enough for two feet to stand at the same time, leads into the unknown darkness. This is the only way for their platform to reach the outside world.
Below was a sea of crimson blood.
Cain and Xu Tianzhen exchanged a glance, both seeing the seriousness in each other's eyes, but then fell into an unspoken silence.
"He's so greedy, don't you care at all?"
Xu Tianzhen finally couldn't hold back and asked first, "I am his sword, everything I have belongs to him, of course I don't care."
Cain responded with a faint smile, his eyes gleaming with a peculiar light that Xu Tianzhen could hardly imagine.
Xu Tianzhen was about to say something when Cain's eyes suddenly sharpened:
"Let's talk about that later. Right now, we need to deal with the immediate problem."
Xu Tianzhen suddenly turned around.
The subtle rustling sounds gradually became piercing, and some red shadows rapidly approached. Amidst the bloody red clouds formed by thousands of blood-red bats, a dark golden figure hung upside down.
Its enormous wingspan of ten meters slowly spread open, making its four-meter body appear somewhat slender in comparison. The sharp claws embedded deep in the stone dome unfolded one by one, and as the wings flapped, the three dark gold bat heads emitted a shrill screech that sent shivers down one's spine.
They were all too familiar with this figure; having spent every day with her over the past year, they had seen her countless times. However, their sizes were vastly different.
"This is..." Xu Tianzhen's eyes widened.
"Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King." Cain said coldly, and an identical dark gold light emerged from behind her. She transformed into a dark gold lightning bolt and shot out!
