MMO: Pierce Heaven Til' It Breaks

Chapter 894 Collecting Souls

Li Yi said sarcastically, “All I need to become a god is a word from the Ruler of God? What is he, a GM?”

“A GM?” The Death God was taken aback. Such a phrase did not exist in her vocabulary.

The Death God harrumphed. “I don’t know what you mean by a GM, but if you want to become a god, you will require both a God’s Heart and the recognition of the Ruler of God. Without that, you will never become a god, no matter how hard you try.

“If you increase the Divine Power of the God’s Heart to over 1000 points, you may merge with the God’s Core. When that happens, even if you can’t become a true god, you will at least become a demigod.”

A demigod, huh? The Tower of Remorse’s warden, Mephisto, was a demigod. If Li Yi was not armed with a quest, it would not have been so easy to defeat it.

In the past life, Li Yi had soloed the Tower of Remorse after Pantheon Mystery was launched. Although the level cap was still at 200 back then, and the Divine Equipment Series was not out yet, the god-tiered buffs had made soloing the tower a piece of cake.

The Death God asked again, “Human, do you know how to increase the Divine Power of the God’s Heart now?”

“Nope.”

“Hehe, if you didn’t have my guidance, you will never find out the correct way. But if you wish to find out how to power up your God’s Heart from me, you must do something for me.”

“Ding!”

[Accept the Death God Diablo Quest?]

“Yes!”

Now that he had accepted the quest, a small black bottle flew into Li Yi’s hands.

“Collect 10,000 fresh souls for me! Ahahahahahahaha! When you’ve done that, I’ll tell you how to power up your God’s Heart, ahahahaha...”

Death God Diablo cackled maniacally as she vanished from the Void Dimension...

“Meow—” Her pet chimed in as well.

Li Yi had encountered the Death God, but instead of fighting her pet, he had found out more about the conditions for Ascension.

It was not enough that he had a God’s Heart. He needed the Ruler of God’s approval as well if he wanted to become a god!

That truly did take Li Yi by surprise.

It was already difficult enough to strengthen the God’s Heart as required, but he did not expect that he needed the Ruler of God’s approval too. If he could not f*cking get chummy with the Ruler of God, did that mean that he would never become a god?

The Ruler of God was exceedingly powerful. With a wave of its hand, it could cast a Divine Punishment against a Continent. In terms of their authority, the Emperor of the Continent was like a child next to the Ruler of God.

Li Yi had no interest in the Emperor’s throne. He had been working all this time all so he could become King of Pantheon’s one and only ultimate authority, the Ruler of God.

Only then could he make up for the regrets of the past life.

However, he did not believe in everything the Death God said. After all, one player in the past life had actually been ascended into godhood, and that was between the Wings of the Sky and the Pantheon Mystery expansion packs.

Someone had become a god before the Pantheon Mystery expansion pack was released, and the Ruler of God resided in the depths of Mount Pantheon. In other words, the player who became a god in the past life could not have met the Ruler of God at all. In other words, he had not been appointed a god by the Ruler of God.

The best part about the game was the exploration. Although the Death God was a god, it was not like she knew everything there was to know either. There was no limit to the players’ intelligence and resourcefulness.

Li Yi believed that there must be a special way to skip the Ruler of God’s approval and become a god directly.

However...

He did not know that method, for now.

Also, that was still a problem for another day. Right now, his priority should be collecting 10,000 fresh souls!

With a wave of his hand, Li Yi teleported toward the Assembled Gods Continent.

Li Yi had a bit of a clue on how to collect the 10,000 fresh souls that the Death God’s quest required. Killing monsters would not work, so it seemed he had to kill people.

Li Yi tested it out in the wild on the Assembled Gods Continent, killing a boss and a dozen monsterlings. However, the little black bottle did not react at all.

Then, Li Yi summoned Onyxia and flew toward Fluttering Snow City. He was ready to launch a massacre.

He could forgive Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut, but he would never forgive Bai Xiaoya and the Fluttering Snow Alliance members who hunted him down for years in the past life.

By the time Li Yi rode Onyxia into Fluttering Snow City, the scene that greeted him left him somewhat speechless.

The buildings inside Fluttering Snow City were more or less all destroyed. The whole place was littered with the debris and rubble from the battle. Li Yi searched the whole place, but he could only find less than 200 players around.

Li Yi killed every player with Fluttering Snow City written above their heads. After flying above Fluttering Snow City for more than half an hour, he had killed a total of 39 players and collected 39 fresh souls.

This rate of progress rendered Li Yi somewhat speechless. He checked the World Channel and then spoke to Shen Lang for a bit before he realized that after Bai Xiaoya pulled that trick back then, she had abandoned the city and left with the Fluttering Snow Alliance elites in tow. They had never been back since, and their current whereabouts were hard to pin down.

Li Yi searched for them using the Divine Looking Glass and found that Bai Xiaoya was active near the Sea God’s Palace.

Li Yi could not teleport there, and it was too far to go there from Merland. He glanced at the time. It was almost dawn.

Li Yi stood in Fluttering Snow City and a ten-second channeling bar appeared above his head. Soon enough, he had logged off.

When Li Yi opened his eyes and looked around his room, his jaw fell open.

There were at least over twenty bottles strewn across the small table, and the five women were scattered all over the place. Two of them, Jiaojiao and Xu Man, were on the bed. Two more were all tangled up on the floor. It was Qian’er, lying on top of Xu Yue. The last one, Fire Ice, was desperately hugging Li Yi’s waist from behind, and her head was even buried in his back.

The five of them seemed drunk...

Qian’er opened her eyes heartily. She took one look at Li Yi and then put her hand between them as she brought her face to his. She even muttered, “Mine!”

Li Yi stopped, stunned, and just stood where he was. This was a dilemma...

Should he let instincts take over, or...?

There was no “or” because Li Yi was already taking off his clothes...

Li Yi walked forth and pulled Qian’er away gently, putting the clothes he had taken off over Xu Yue’s body.
