Now Diogakas has completely released his restraints, revealing an ordinary face.

"Kransa, just wait here."

Diogakas smiled and patted Klantha on the shoulder. Not everyone can climb this mountain of ashes.

Deogakas relies on his immortal body to slowly climb amidst the fierce burning of the remaining fire.

As a person who cleanses away sins, Lin Yi has power that even makes him afraid of miracles. This mountain of ashes is naturally not a problem for him.

Keransa whispered: "Be careful."

She knew that she was not qualified to set foot on this mountain of ashes at this moment.

There is only one possibility to cross this mountain peak, and that is to cut off all the sins on this continent and bear them all on oneself.

Only in this way, what burns in the afterglow is these deep sins, not the soul of the climber.

"Take out the seed I gave you before."

Diogakas stretched out his palm towards Lin Yi.

Hearing Diogakas's words, Lin Yi raised his wrist. The black thorns that originally surrounded it had now turned into bright blood-red, as if they had just been taken out of a pool of blood, shining with a coquettish light.

Lin Yi discovered that the effect of the thorns had changed.

Diogakas took the blood-red thorn from Lin Yi's hand and immediately threw it towards the Ash Mountain.

At this moment, a path made of thorns and broken branches appeared out of thin air, winding and stretching in front of the two people.

The path was extremely long and narrow, with countless corpses on both sides and below.

The arms of these corpses stretched feebly to the sky, seeming to beg every passing soul, and also seem to be asking for their lives.

The air is filled with the smell of decay and heat. Even if you are just close, you can feel the burning heat coming towards your face.

Diogakas stepped on it, and the red thorns instantly pierced the soles of his feet, and blood flowed out, staining the thorny road red.

Stimulated by the blood, the corpses on the mountain seemed to be injected with life, and they were "resurrected" one by one. All the heads turned to Diogakas, as if waiting for a long-lost feast.

Countless arms flapped feebly at Diogakas' feet, as if they were trying to catch this contender who dared to go to the Holy King's throne.

Seeing Diogakas starting to move forward, Lin Yi also followed on this thorny road.

What was unexpected was that when Lin Yi's soles came into contact with the thorns, the sharp thorns did not pierce his skin as expected.

On the contrary, he only felt as if he was stepping on a soft carpet under his feet. Apart from a slight tingling sensation, there was no other discomfort.

Keransa was shocked when she witnessed this scene.

She knelt down on one knee and began to pray devoutly: "Holy man, may you have a safe journey."

The thorny road ahead is a cruel punishment for the sinful, but for the holy, it is like a harmless decoration.

After Lin Yi came to this world, he didn't do anything extraordinary.

Therefore, under the judgment standards of this world, Lin Yi has no resentment in his body.

The surrounding arms originally tried to grab Lin Yi's ankles and drag him into the abyss.

However, when these arms were about to touch Lin Yi, they were stabbed severely by thorns on the side, causing blood to drip from them.

Lin Yi himself would not be harmed by the thorns, but these corpses burned by the remaining fire could not touch the road of thorns.

In the judgment of the thorns, these corpses on the Ashes Mountain are all guilty of heinous crimes.

Therefore, the thorns hurt them the most seriously. Just a slight touch would leave huge wounds on their bodies.

After the Holy King established the Forbidden Gate to isolate the Holy See from the outside world, he fell into endless thinking, trying to find a way to preserve his throne.

Until a miracle came, a towering tree grew under his throne, lifting him to the sky.

Someone secretly set fire to the giant tree, and the Holy King also transformed into a monster in the fire.

Everyone who saw the throne on the top of the mountain rushed forward to sit on it.

But this is the Mountain of Ashes after all, and those who attempt to ascend to the throne often have their souls burned away by the remaining fire before they can realize their ambitions.

Therefore, all the corpses on the Ashes Mountain are careerists who once came for the throne of the Holy King.

Naturally, the hearts of these people are not very clean.

Following the thorny road, Lin Yi quickly caught up with Diogakas.

After all, Lin Yi didn't need to bear the damage of thorns, and his steps were light.

In contrast, Diogakas is also a sinner in the judgment of thorns.

His legs had been pierced by thorns, and his hands were scraped with blood.

Diogakas, unaware of all the pain, climbed firmly to the top of the mountain.

Seeing this, Lin Yi surpassed Diogakas and reached the top of Ash Mountain.

On the top of the mountain, what appeared in front of Lin Yi was a desolate scene.

Countless corpses lay on the ground, their pale fingers reaching forward feebly, aiming for the empty golden throne.

However, their fingertips could never reach the edge of the gorgeous seat, and their fingers stained with the dust of death silently declared their failure.

On the throne, the golden lines outline a series of miracles, which are patterns of pain and miracles intertwined.

The wind blew violently from all directions, picking up the dust and dead leaves on the ground, evoking a mournful murmur in this dead place.

Among the corpses, there were no cries and shouts of life, only a deathly tranquility.

On this mountaintop full of death, the Golden Throne silently witnesses the fall of every soul and records the end of every life.

Lin Yi walked up to the Golden Throne and sat down. The only thing Lin Yi could think of was to sit on it. Sitting on it was far less comfortable than the single sofa in his traditional Chinese medicine clinic.

This holy king is really a ruthless person. The golden throne is bare and there is nothing paved. He feels his butt is cold even when he sits on it.

Just after Lin Yi sat on the throne, something happened to the body under the throne.

Countless pale arms slowly lifted up from the mountain of corpses, holding up a golden crown together, and relayed the crown in front of Lin Yi.

The meaning of this move couldn't be more obvious - Lin Yi has passed the test.

Now, he is eligible to be crowned as the new Holy King.

"Me? Be the Holy King? Sorry, I may kill your god soon, so I won't be the Holy King."

Lin Yi looked at the golden crown in front of him and did not reach out to take it. Instead, he stood up and dusted off his butt.

Although the golden throne is noble, it is really uncomfortable to sit on.

If you were a holy king, you would definitely change to a comfortable sofa.

About ten minutes later, Diogakas finally climbed to the top of the mountain after many hardships.

Diogakas's body was covered with wounds scraped by thorns, and bright red blood kept flowing from the wounds, dripping into the ash mountain below and disappearing without a trace.

Diogakas stood on the mountain of ashes, panting and looking at Lin Yi.

He struggled to steady his body, staggered to the golden throne, and then sat down.

"Do you want to be a holy king? The crown is here, do you want to wear it?" Upon seeing this, Lin Yi took the crown from the pale arm in front of him and handed it to Diogakas.

Diogakas shook his head. He slowly raised the sword of thorns in his hand and pointed the blade at his chest.

"The blood of miracles can open the way for you." Diogakas took a deep breath, held the sword tightly with both hands, and then stabbed it into his abdomen, piercing the golden throne together with it.

Upon seeing this, Lin Yi immediately took out the key he obtained from the Holy King from his personal space.

This key seemed to have spirituality, automatically floating to the right side of the Golden Throne and inserted into a keyhole that had not been noticed before.

As the key was inserted, the blood flowing on Diogakas's body began to be slowly absorbed by the groove on the throne.

Blood flowed in the grooves, gradually outlining a twisted portrait of the Holy Father and the Mother of All Mothers.

At the same time, the sword of thorns that pierced Diogakas also changed. Countless thorns grew crazily from the wounds of Diogakas. These thorns were tightly wrapped around the golden throne. From a distance, they seemed to be integrated with the distorted image of the Holy Father.

After absorbing enough blood, the Golden Throne finally mutated.

Creak, creak... With the sound of the hard operation of the metal mechanism, the golden throne began to tilt slowly.

When it tilted to an angle of about 30 degrees, the throne seemed to be stuck by something, making a harsh friction sound.

Lin Yi walked over and took a look and found that one of the gears was stuck due to disrepair, which made the entire mechanism unable to move.

After punching the gear in, the mechanism continued to rotate, and soon a dark hole was revealed.

There is no bottom below the cave entrance, and only the sound of whimpering wind comes from below.

He waited with bated breath. After dozens of seconds, he vaguely heard the crisp sound of gravel hitting metal.

"Gone."

Lin Yi waved his hand towards Diogakas, but unfortunately, Diogakas' body was covered with thorns at this time, and it was obvious that he could no longer hear what Lin Yi said.

The wind whistled in his ears, Lin Yi was in a state of free fall, and the surroundings were dark.

According to his previous judgment, this vertical shaft was at least a hundred meters deep.

In order to slow down his fall, a purple dagger appeared in Lin Yi's hand. He flipped the dagger skillfully, held the knife behind his back, and pierced the metal wall with the blade pointed downward.

Zila~ The dagger made a deep slash on the metal wall. At the same time, Lin Yi put one foot against the metal wall, using friction and resistance to slow down his fall.

However, the whereabouts continued.

After about fifteen seconds of falling, Lin Yi frowned.

He had previously tested the depth of the hole with a stone. According to normal circumstances, he should have reached the bottom by now.

But now, he is still falling, which seems to mean that the hole is much deeper than expected.

Lin Yi raised his arm and pulled the dagger out of the metal wall. His falling speed gradually accelerated.

Bang!
Three seconds later, Lin Yi successfully fell into the ground.

In an area of ​​this depth, the surroundings can only be described as invisible.

Lin Yi pulled a military fluorescent stick from his waist, and the fluorescent stick quickly emitted green fluorescence.

With the help of this weak green fluorescence, Lin Yi began to carefully look at the surrounding environment.

The cave he found himself in was shaped like a shaft, cylindrical, and the surrounding walls were made entirely of metal.

I don’t know how the Holy See of Pain could build such a metal shaft with its technological level.

Under Lin Yi's feet was a large solid iron plate, and no exits were found on the surrounding metal walls.

"Dead end?" Lin Yi frowned and looked at the surrounding metal walls. Apart from the large red rust, he really didn't find any other clues.

He tried knocking on the metal wall, hoping to find the hidden mechanism, but after all his efforts, he still found nothing.

Unwilling to be reconciled, Lin Yi squatted on the ground and started tapping the metal floor below with his hands.

The sound of thump, thump, thump echoed in the empty underground, seeming to have some kind of rhythm.

Suddenly, his brows raised, and there was a hint of excitement in his voice, "Empty."

Lin Yi stood up, stared at the metal ground under his feet, and then punched it hard.

There was a crunch, and the metal floor suddenly sank a few centimeters.

"I see."

Lin Yi knew what was going on. According to his judgment, the metal shaft he was in was actually an elevator, and the metal plate under his feet was the elevator's tray.

Due to years of disrepair and the damp underground environment, the metal parts had rusted, causing the pallet to become stuck in mid-air.

If you follow the normal process, you should turn on the mechanism of the throne first, and then the metal tray will rise up.

While closing the throne, the metal tray will slowly lower.

But now, it's clear that the process is no longer functioning properly.

There was a click, the sound of metal breaking came from below, and the entire metal plate trembled.

Immediately afterwards, a harsh friction sound was heard, and the metal plate began to slowly fall.

The initial falling speed was not too fast, but as time passed, the rust on the mechanism below seemed to be worn away, causing the metal plate to fall faster and faster.

Lin Yi tightly grasped the edge of the metal plate and tried to maintain his balance.

Lin Yi now felt like he was in an elevator that had an accident. The elevator was accelerating and falling.

Looking around, his eyes were caught by a metal door.

This metal door was engraved with an unreadable pattern. There was no trace of rust on the door. It had obviously been carefully maintained. There was a round hole in the center.

Lin Yi carefully observed the situation inside the round hole. He found that the round hole was about fifty centimeters deep and there was a metal pole next to it. This was probably the key mechanism to open the metal door.

Lin Yi pulled out the black and white rose from his waist and stabbed the metal door with his sword.

bite.

Sparks flew, and the sword tip only left a shallow dent on the door.

This thing is very strong. To be precise, there is some kind of energy protecting this metal door.

It's not that Lin Yi can't destroy the metal door. If he breaks it with brute force, it will take him at least several hours, or even longer.

Lin Yi stared at the dent in the metal door, gradually realizing that the design matched the shape of the Stigmata surprisingly well.

After installing the Stigmata on the metal door in front of him, Lin Yi pulled down the lever, and the clicking sound of the mechanism came from inside the door.

With a rumbling sound, the metal door slowly rose, revealing a dark corridor.

Lin Yi stepped into the corridor and was surrounded by darkness. Only the five stone statues of different shapes in front of him were faintly visible in the faint light.

These stone statues surround a mirror, as if they are guarding it.

Other than that, there is nothing here.

Coming to the mirror, Lin Yi found that the things in the mirror in front of him were constantly changing.

Lin Yi tried to reach out his palm and touch the mirror. The moment he touched it, a strong attraction came from the mirror, instantly pulling him into the world in the mirror.

[Tip: The hunter has entered the hidden area, the other side of the dream. 】

[The other side of the dream is a highly dangerous area, and rewards such as treasure chests and the source of the world are increased by 20%. 】

[Because the Other Side of Dreams is a hidden area, if you want to enter the Other Side of Dreams, the hunter needs to consume 400 Paradise Coins per hour. If there are not enough Paradise Coins, the Hunter will be forcibly teleported to the entrance of The Other Side of Dreams. 】

"The other side of dreams."

Lin Yi muttered. He had not forgotten the news he had obtained from Tepidad before. The god who spreads miracles was on the other side of the dream.

Looking around, the scenery in front of Lin Yi was changing rapidly like a kaleidoscope.

A simple thatched house turned into a magnificent palace in the blink of an eye, and then turned into a towering tree with lush branches and leaves reaching into the sky.

Everything around me seems to be constantly reorganizing and evolving, with no fixed form.

In this ever-changing dreamland, only one path remains unchanged.

It leads straight to the top of the mountain in the distance, as if it is the only guide through this chaotic space.

Black and white roses appeared in Lin Yi's hand. You must know that this is a high-risk area in the Samsara Paradise.

In the dream world, space and time are intertwined into an intricate invisible web.

Every step forward may lead to a new world.

The simple stone bridges in the waterside gardens, the golden terraces in the countryside, every scene is like a dream, but they disappear without a trace in an instant and are replaced by new scenes.

The world of dreams continues to unfold in the cycle of life and death.

Lin Yi ignored the changing scenery around him and kept walking along the road, and soon came to a floating mountain range.

Under the sky, three huge heads looked like gods walking in the clouds.

What flows in their eyes is golden hot oil, and every drop is like liquid sunlight, shining with dazzling luster.

When the golden liquid slid down the cheeks and fell to the earth, the moment it came into contact with the dust, it made a subtle but crisp "sizzling" sound, like the murmur of an angel.

The sky is their temple, the clouds are their cloaks, and the tears of golden hot oil are the last tenderness they give to this world.
