246: Chapter 246 A Cthulhu God Show on Hell Difficulty!

[Ding! You have entered the Gods Game!]

After the rules prompt, gray-green mist completely swallowed the two of them.

The surrounding scenery twisted and changed crazily. The insane whispers filling their eardrums became clearer, as if countless indescribable existences were hissing and babbling right beside their ears.

When the mind-shaking fluctuations subsided slightly, the two were already in a completely alienated space.

Overhead was a writhing, dark red sky resembling the inner wall of an organ; beneath their feet was a pitch-black land covered in sticky liquid and twisted patterns.

The air was filled with a thick, fishy-sweet and decaying scent. In the distance, twisted, grotesque shadows radiating chaotic mental energy flickered in the mist, emitting scratching sounds.

The Gods Game panel forcibly popped up, the scarlet font carrying an ominous aura:

[Game Name: Whispering Soul Prison]

[Difficulty: Eight-Star Hell]

[Introduction: This is the highest difficulty Gods Game of Cthulhu! Get lost in the endlessly changing Cthulhu Soul Prison, hunt the wandering Whispering Souls, and find the Cthulhu Soul Body within three hours to destroy it! The Soul Prison is full of negative mental BUFFs; the longer you stay, the faster your sanity will be lost, eventually falling into eternal madness and becoming a member of the Soul Prison!]

Looking at the scarlet "Eight-Star Hell" lettering and the cruel introduction, Shen Xiyun's beautiful face was full of gravity.

"Lu Chen, this is the Cthulhu Hell Gods Game... The paths in the Soul Prison change constantly, like a maze, without any pattern."

"The Cthulhu Soul Body is intangible and formless, extremely difficult to kill, and it is very cunning, deliberately hiding and not appearing until the participants have a mental breakdown."

"Those negative mental BUFFs are impossible to guard against, eroding our spirits every moment. Even I can only hold on for 3 hours. My Substitute Secret Spell almost failed last time due to a mental breakdown... Time is too tight, we..."

Her words were full of gravity and worry. The difficulty of this Gods Game far exceeded ordinary instances; it was a lethal trap truly aimed at the Soul.

But!

Lu Chen just scanned the Gods Game panel casually. The difficulty description, which would make any participant despair, did not stir the slightest ripple in his eyes.

He turned his head to look at Big Boss Shen, who was rarely showing unease beside him, the corners of his mouth still raised in a smile.

"Big Boss Shen, relax. Just follow behind me and watch."

He paused, then said clearly and firmly, "Watch how I crush this so-called Gods Game!"

As he spoke, a brilliant light shot from Lu Chen's eyes!

"Nine Beasts into One!"

A powerful Forbidden Spell aura suddenly erupted from Lu Chen's body!

The phantoms of nine SSS-Rank legendary beast pets, including the Azure Dragon, Void-Eye White Tiger, Abyssal Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise, flashed behind him and instantly merged with his main body!

Brilliant radiance shot into the sky, dispelling the surrounding gray-green mist!

Lu Chen's figure did not grow larger in the light, but the pressure radiating from his body spread out like a tangible tsunami!

And that was not all.

[Infinite Beast Domain] activated!

[Legendary Dragon Blood Aura] empowered!

[abyss conqueror] title shone!

[Power of Prairie Dragon Fire] was ready to go!

At this moment, Lu Chen's aura was so powerful that it was not inferior to a Tier 9 legendary big boss!

"Kill!"

Lu Chen did not use any flashy skills. He simply thrust his spear forward at the twisting, writhing Soul Prison barrier and the Whispering Souls flickering within!

Where the spear light passed, space shattered like fragile glass, and pitch-black cracks spread. Those intangible Whispering Souls could not even wail before being completely annihilated in this absolute storm of power!

"Eye of the Ringed Heavens, open!"

Hum!

An invisible absolute observation Domain centered on Lu Chen instantly covered 80% of the map!

All hidden paths, changing situations, locations deep in the Soul Prison, and even the precise coordinates of every Whispering Soul were clearly reflected in Lu Chen's eyes.

"Follow me."

Lu Chen said lightly, and with a movement, he turned into a stream of light that tore through all obstacles, rushing straight toward the depths of the Soul Prison!

Wherever he passed, walls were forcibly smashed, and countless Whispering Souls turned into fly ash in swathes!

Shen Xiyun followed closely behind. She was completely stunned, her red lips slightly parted, her beautiful eyes wide open as she watched the figure in front who was like a humanoid Vicious Beast, crushing everything in his path. She felt shocked beyond measure.

This...

Is this Lu Chen's true strength?

Nine Beasts into One...

Lu Chen!

What other Heaven-Defying methods does he possess?

...

Outside the Gods Game.

The massive figure crouching like an ancient mountain range—Cthulhu.

Its eyes, which were like chaotic whirlpools, had already fully opened.

The indifference and dead silence originally in its eyes were now replaced by deep shock and a trace of uncontrollable anger.

In the Eight-Star Hell Gods Game that it had meticulously designed to trap any participant, that tiny Human Race was violently dismantling its game in the most barbaric and unreasonable way!

The aura emanating from this kid made even it feel a tremor in its heart, especially the spear weapon in his hand; it always felt like it had seen it somewhere before.

"How is it possible... an F-Rank Beast Tamer... actually able to master a Beast Tamer Forbidden Spell that fuses nine major beast pets? Isn't the Beast Tamer profession suppressed by the True God big bosses?!"

Muffled whispers echoed in the Void Realm, filled with disbelief.

Watching inside the Gods Game, Lu Chen was rapidly approaching its Soul Body with a crushing attitude, crushing all obstacles along the way. Cthulhu's giant mouth full of sharp teeth opened and closed, and its tentacles twisted uneasily.

Anger!

Incomparable anger!

A tiny ant actually dared to trample on the dignity of a god like this!

A destructive impulse brewed in its heart; it wanted to enter the game itself and completely wipe out this variable!

But...

Just as this thought arose, a warning from the depths of its Soul stopped it cold.

Its gaze was locked on the simple, ancient spear in Lu Chen's hand that occasionally flashed with a streak of scarlet blood light.

The divine blood remaining on the spear tip made it feel a terrifying aura of a higher order!

"That spear... where have I seen it..."

A trace of deep dread flashed in Cthulhu's huge eyes.

Enter the game itself?

In normal times, crushing such a slightly larger ant would naturally be easy.

But at this moment, the opponent's state was bizarre, his strength was unsolvable, and he held a terrifying fierce weapon...

What if, what if it capsized in the gutter?

Once it fell in the Gods Game, that would be a true god's fall!

Its hard-won False God position would immediately be snatched by other Tier 10 half-god Invading Monsters who were eyeing it covetously!

This risk...

It dared not take it! And it could not afford to take it!

Weighing the pros and cons, the boiling killing intent was forcibly suppressed, leaving only a muffled roar of unwillingness echoing in its chest.

...

Inside the Gods Game.

Several days later.

"Found you."

Lu Chen pierced through the last twisted wall of flesh with one shot, and the scene suddenly opened up. A dark red ball of flesh that was constantly pulsating, condensed from countless crazy thoughts and chaotic energy, appeared before his eyes—the Cthulhu Soul Body BOSS!

Without any hesitation, Lu Chen raised his hand, activated the beast god medal, and unleashed an infinite Forbidden Spell bombardment!

Although the Cthulhu Soul Body was strong, facing Lu Chen, who was Nine Beasts into One and simply couldn't be killed, it only struggled for a while before being easily crushed and wiped out by Lu Chen!

"Break!"

Whoosh—Puff!

The stream of light easily pierced through it, and the Cthulhu Soul Body suddenly stiffened, then countless cracks appeared on its surface, and it exploded with a bang!

All the whispers, all the twisted scenes receded like the tide.

[Ding! Congratulations on successfully clearing the Hell-difficulty Cthulhu Gods Game!]

[Rewards are being calculated...]

[Reward obtained: Gold coins + 12.8 million (split equally among the team)!]

A set of legendary Beast Tamer equipment radiating nine-colored light fell into his backpack space.

Lu Chen destroyed the equipment directly.

As for the Beast Tamer Forbidden Spell skill book, Lu Chen directly chose [SSS-Rank Legendary Beast Taming Technique], which allows contracting multiple beast pets at once. Combined with the group contract scroll, it can speed up the contracting of beast pets.

With this, all his skills were SSS-Rank legendary level.

As for the legendary title, Lu Chen ignored it directly; he didn't even know how many legendary titles he had.

Shen Xiyun also received corresponding generous rewards. She looked at Lu Chen, who was bathed in golden light with an aura as towering as a god or demon, her eyes full of shock, relief, and a trace of... strange look that even she herself had not noticed.

"Lu Chen, thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to obtain the legendary Forbidden Spell I wanted, nor a set of legendary equipment."

"Big Boss Shen, it's a small matter!"

"However, we must hurry and leave. After participating in the Gods Game, we have rule protection, but once the time ends, Cthulhu can attack us. We cleared this Gods Game, which is equivalent to playing with it. Given its evil nature, it will not let us go."

Lu Chen nodded.

Immediately.

The two left quickly.

The Cthulhu god could only watch helplessly, letting out an angry divine roar!
