# Chapter 2393: The Trial of the Gods

"This..." Lin Feng was also left speechless by this scene. It was too terrifying. A starry sky battle beast, an entire starry sky painting, turned out to be a terrifying demonic ox. What level was this demonic ox?

"Those eyes... so terrifying." Lin Feng stared at those incomparably huge eyes, as if with a single glance, they could see through a person.

"One million three hundred thousand years. Finally, the Starry Sky Domain has accumulated enough merit to bring you before me." Suddenly, throughout the entire starry sky, a voice resounded. Every place in the starry sky heard this voice at the same time, making it impossible to distinguish where it came from.

No one spoke. The crowd simply stared at the old ox in the void.

"One million three hundred thousand years. The Starry Sky Domain accumulated enough merit, taking one million three hundred thousand years. What a terrifying number." Lin Feng thought to himself.

"I hope this time, someone can make this starry sky disappear forever, and not leave disappointment again." The old ox spoke again, seemingly letting out a sigh. So many years of accumulated merit had finally triggered the ruins left by its master, causing it to reappear. It had been too long. This kind of time was too hard to endure. For it, it was also a torment.

"Senior, I am a descendant of the Giant God Clan. May I ask, senior, do you know the ancestors of my Giant God Clan?" At this moment, Giant God Kui Shan looked up at the old ox in the sky and asked.

"Oh?" The old ox let out a sound of surprise, as if looking at Giant God Kui Shan. Then it said, "So you are a descendant of the Giant God Clan. One of my master's past life avatars did indeed create a Giant God Clan."

"Really?" The hearts of the Giant God Clan members trembled violently. The rumor that had rarely been believed even until now—was it true?

The person who created the Giant God Clan was merely one of the old ox's master's avatars? This was too shocking. Gods—only Gods could do this.

"Was senior's master a God?" Giant God Kui Shan, a Great Accomplishment Saint King, was now very nervous as he looked at the starry sky old ox, full of anticipation.

"Gods..." The old ox's voice was deep. Then it said, "Of course. My master was one of the most powerful Gods!"

Gods truly existed. At this moment, everyone in this starry sky felt their hearts tremble violently. They had finally received a definite answer. Gods existed. Today, they had encountered a God's ruins and met the God's servant, the starry sky old ox.

"Is he still here?" Giant God Kui Shan's body trembled slightly.

Still here? Everyone wanted to know. Do Gods still exist now?

"He should... still be here." The starry sky old ox murmured, causing many people's hearts to skip a beat. The starry sky old ox said, "should... still be here." Its tone was not very certain. This meant that even it didn't know if there were still Gods now. These ruins were from the past.

"Is the ancestor still here?" Giant God Kui Shan asked tremblingly.

"Hoo..." The starry sky old ox exhaled a breath of white air, and instantly, the stars in the sky seemed to tremble.

"Let's set that aside for now. This vast starry sky world has many ruins. Some stars can be ascended, and there are traces of human activity. They were all created by my master, worlds that evolved and were born. So, you can go and explore. Those with good fortune can obtain benefits. However, many worlds have people who are not as strong as you. You are not allowed to kill on them."

"Those stars are actually worlds." This opened everyone's eyes wide. This was a God—omnipotent, creating all worlds, the true master of heaven and earth.

Before a God, even Saints were probably ants. They were the ultimate existence.

"Of course, you can also continue upward and directly accept the trials left by my master. If you can pass the trials, you can obtain greater benefits. However, if you fail, there is danger to your life. Now, consider your options. Those who want to continue upward, enter the starry sky within my mouth." The starry sky old ox spoke to the crowd again.

They had two paths to choose. One was to search for ruins in the vast, endless starry sky. They had a chance to obtain the ruins, and there was no great danger. The second path was to directly accept the God's trial. This second path was very dangerous, and there was even a possibility of falling. If they fell, what benefits were there to talk about? These two paths were for them to choose.

Moreover, only those with enough merit had the right to choose. Otherwise, without merit, they wouldn't even have the right to come here. Of course, the ruins that appeared through accumulated merit probably didn't have too harsh requirements for merit. So quite a few people were standing on this plane. It seemed that all the powerful figures who had entered the Divine Tomb over countless years were now gathered here.

Many strong individuals had entered in units of ten thousand years. Over so many years, the number of accumulated experts could be imagined.

"Third Uncle, of course we choose to go up and accept the trial." Giant God Yan said to Giant God Kui Shan. They had to go up. This was the trial left by their ancestor.

"Of course. We must go. Even if it costs us our lives, we have to take the gamble." Giant God Kui Shan said. They had to charge through.

"Let's go!" Giant God Kui Shan said. Then they took the lead, stepping into the starry sky old ox's mouth. Beams of starlight enveloped them, and then their figures disappeared from before the crowd.

"They disappeared. They went to accept the God's trial." The crowd's expressions tightened. Many people chose to go upward. This was a God's trial! They had cultivated to their current level, the Saint realm—how powerful they were. But taking one more step forward was too difficult. What they pursued was the path to the peak, wasn't it? Now, the pinnacle existence of the world was right before them, having set up trials. How could they give up? Almost everyone moved forward, stepping into the starry sky old ox's huge mouth, willing to accept the trial.

"The will of a Saint—how firm and unyielding." Lin Feng murmured. Then he also strolled upward. Instantly, beams of starlight struck his body, enveloping him completely.

"Oh?" A low exclamation sounded, seemingly from the old ox, very surprised.

"No obvious realm." A voice entered Lin Feng's ears. Then it said, "Could it be..."

"This aura intensity should belong to the peak state of just entering the Saint realm." Then, the starlight beams swept Lin Feng in, and his figure also disappeared.

"Starry Sky Ancient Path." When Lin Feng appeared again, he found himself standing before a starry sky ancient path. In this space, there were now several dozen Saint realm experts, all Half-step Saints.

"People of the same level accept trials of the same level." Lin Feng thought to himself. Obviously, everyone had noticed this. If people of different levels accepted the same trial, it would clearly be unfair.

"Since you have decided to accept the trial, there is no turning back. Follow this starry sky ancient path forward. When you reach the end, you will have passed the trial. If you think you cannot pass the trial, you can turn back. This way, you might avoid death. But all memories of what you have seen today will be erased."

The voice reached the crowd's ears, causing their expressions to tighten. If they couldn't pass the trial, they wouldn't be qualified to know what happened here. Their memories would be erased. It was cruel.

"Alright. Now, you may set out." The voice came again. However, the crowd did not immediately set out. Everything ahead was unknown. This was a God's trial. Anything could happen. They had to be extremely careful.

"What is your name?" At this moment, a figure appeared beside Lin Feng. It was a member of the Giant God Clan, Giant God Yan.

"Mu Feng." Lin Feng said. Here, if there were people from the Divine Hall, they might have heard of Lin Feng. To avoid unnecessary trouble, he would go by Mu Feng.

"Mu Feng, the starry sky ancient path, the God's trial, will surely be filled with difficulties. How about we join forces?" Giant God Yan had fought with Lin Feng and knew how formidable he was. So he was willing to join forces with Lin Feng.

Lin Feng was not surprised. At this moment, many people were gathering in groups of three or five, discussing joining forces. Giant God Yan's behavior was very normal. After all, the starry sky old ox had not stipulated that they couldn't join forces. As long as they reached the end of the starry sky ancient path, they would have passed the trial.

"Alright." Lin Feng nodded. Although he was very confident in his own strength, this was a God's trial. Having an extra friend would be helpful if they faced too great a challenge.

"Everyone, my name is Mu Kui. Let's all move forward together. If we encounter external threats, we'll join forces to deal with them." At this moment, a strong individual spoke. The crowd had no objections. They all moved forward together. Following this starry sky ancient path, they saw a star ahead. They had to pass through this star to continue forward.

"There seem to be many people on this star." The crowd flew through the air. Several dozen people headed toward that star.

"There really are many strong individuals. How can there be so many?" Someone exclaimed in surprise. The star below was densely packed, as if it were an army.

"Not good. Air is forbidden. Such a strong oppressive force. We can't fly."

Lin Feng also noticed that the closer they got to the star's surface, the stronger the oppressive force became. They couldn't fly.

"Those people aren't flying either. This is a star where flight is forbidden. We can only pass through from the ground." The crowd's bodies continuously descended. As they got closer, a terrifying pressure enveloped them. They saw pairs of bloodthirsty eyes, as if they weren't human eyes at all. Those weren't ordinary humans. They were likely puppets or undead souls. The killing aura was very strong!
