Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 335: This World

Li Mo used this chance to bolt.

He ran swiftly back and found Ye Li with Ji beaten up. He grabbed them both and scrammed.

With Archfiend Mage being out of it, the zombies stopped. Li Mo had no trouble getting out of the encirclement.

Ji was still fearful, These zombies are truly frightening. My Holy Light cant kill them.

They arent true undead. They are only puppets and you cant kill those.

With the zombies tied to Archfiend Mage, as long as he lived, theyd never die.

Li Mo ran so fast he soon entered the black vortex.

Whoosh~

The instant he did, the world fell silent.

They were in a pocket dimension, away from those zombies. They were currently safe

Li Mo put the other two down and sat on the ground, gasping.

Li Mo was also hurt. If not for the sudden idea to recite that line, the three of them wouldve died.

If it really is him, then this world

Li Mo shook his head.

He suddenly had a wild guess, but it was so preposterous even he dared not believe.

But if not for that guess, why else would the Archfiend Mage fall silent at those words? 

And theres that familiar feeling too

Perhaps appearance is only a representation

Ji, tell me again all you know about heroes.

Heroes are the strongest in this world, second to none. Each hero is unique.

Only the top five galaxies could have heroes while the others had no hope of getting them.

Of the five galaxies, Barren and Bestial are the strongest. They not only have many with level 9 gifts but also possess two heroes.

The only hero I know about is Mara Galaxys Black Insect King. His reproduction is endless and no one can pierce his defense. His descendants all inherit his trait. In ten minutes he could give birth to an army of a hundred million.

Ji gave a systematic description of the heroes.

Black Insect King.

Li Mo muttered, and a thought hit him.

Another familiar name came to mind.

Welcome to the Dark Hall.

An aged voice echoed.

The three searched for where the voice came from and saw an old man in white standing before a huge black gate.

He didnt look much different from a human, but on a closer look, the old mans skin was smooth as a babys. If not for his aged gaze and white hair, one wouldnt be able to tell his age. 

Snow people?

Li Mo was stunned.

The old man was from one of the snow people.

Snow people kept their youth until near death, when they quickly grew old and pass away. And the old man before them was clearly on the verge of dying.

Human, you know snow people? THe old man smiled.

I have two servants that are snow people. Li Mo said.

The old man smiled, That is our purpose, to tend to other races.

Greetings, my master is the lord of the Dark Hall, the greatest existence in this world. And I am his most devoted servant, Mito. Mito bowed with elegance and nobility.

Allow me to present to you where you are.

This is the Dark Hall, a place my master built with the sole purpose of testing this worlds strongest. Inside, you may obtain 36 contracts with gods. In the ages that passed, only 9 such contracts had been taken.

Each time it happened, the difficulty of the Dark Hall rose and at the same time so too did the quality of the contracts.

Ji was stunned, Nine contracts! You mean to say that this world has nine heroes? But the five strongest galaxies only have 7 in total. Who holds the other two?

That is a secret. I am only a guide meant to introduce to you the Dark Hall, while unable to disclose the whereabouts of the contracted gods.

Theres no limit on how many can enter, but there is on time. After one year, you will be kicked out.

Also, entering the Dark Hall will require you to give some soul power.

Mito presented three black vials.

Hunt living beings and fill this vial with their souls. Only then you may enter the Dark Hall.

The trio was stunned.

Ji asked, We cant enter right now?

No, this is the rule. Only by gathering enough soul power can you enter.

How many do we need to kill to fill this tiny vial?

Depends on the strength of the creature. The stronger it is, the more soul power it has. If you are to hunt for average monsters, you will need a million.

Thats sending us to slaughter. Ji said, No wonder therere so few heroes

That is nothing compared to this.

Mito took out a man sized black bottle. 

The three held the tiny vials in their hands, feeling how insignificant they were by comparison.

Ji cried, How many do you kill to fill that?

I havent managed to figure out yet, but ever since the Dark Hall came to be, no challenger had ever managed to fill this bottle.

But if you do fill it, the benefit will be worth it. With this bottle theres no restriction on how many can enter. You no longer need a tiny vial per person. Just this one bottle is enough to bring as many people as you want.

Whats more, you will also gain two extra years time limit.

Ye Li watched the black gate behind Mito and walked over to push. 

The black gate didnt budge.

Mito smiled, This door only moves with enough soul power. This is why you need to fill those vials.

Ye Li placed her longsword at Mitos throat, Open it and let us in!

Mito froze.
