333: Chapter 333 Knocking on the Divine Bone

Above the clouds.

Inside the void grand array.

The air... suddenly fell silent.

The remnant souls of the three Huaxia ancient gods stared uniformly at the glaring crimson characters "SSS + Extreme Realm" on the light screen below.

"Hiss——!"

Taishang Laojun's hand trembled, and his whisk fell to the ground.

"O-Old Daoist, am I not seeing things?!"

Taishang Laojun widened his eyes, his eyeballs almost pressing against the light screen.

He pointed at the large "+" sign, his voice trembling:

"This trial grand array was personally set up by Old Daoist me!"

"The highest upper limit set by Old Daoist me is clearly only S-rank!"

"Where did this SSS come from?! Where the hell did this plus sign come from?!"

"How come Old Daoist me didn't know there was such a rating?!"

"Did the system make it up on the spot?! And what the hell is that Extreme Realm thing?!"

After being stunned for a few seconds,

Pangu abruptly raised his head and let out an earth-shattering wild laughter!

"Hahaha! Exhilarating!"

"Old Daoist with an ox nose, your lousy system was literally burned out by this group of little monsters!"

Pangu pointed at the three hundred thousand Red Wolf Army below, his eyes filled with fanaticism and admiration:

"With mortal bodies, they reversed a century of national fortune!"

"They uprooted the powers' aircraft carriers and scientists, bringing them all back to the Dragon Country!"

"Decades in advance, they made the Dragon Country stand at the pinnacle of the world!"

"Can such heaven-defying strokes be encapsulated by a mere SSS-rank?!"

"The system was driven to desperation by their unreasonable fighting style!"

"It forcibly broke through the laws and artificially created a score for them!"

Beside them,

Nuwa's extraordinarily beautiful face was also filled with shock.

Her red lips parted slightly, and ripples flowed within her beautiful eyes.

"Defying the heavens to change destiny, reshaping the historical pattern..."

Nuwa softly murmured: "The fortune carried by this group of little fellows is even stronger than ours back then."

But soon, a trace of deep worry flashed across the depths of Nuwa's eyes.

"During the first calamity, Asking the Heart, they forcibly broke the situation relying on their hot-blooded passion, max-level bodies, and inconceivable operations."

"Yet this second calamity..."

"Won't be so easy to take shortcuts with!"

Meanwhile,

Ruins of the Archaic Divine War, Red Wolf Guild base.

The twelve-hour rest countdown was slowly ticking on the firmament.

For this group of max-level bigshots who had just experienced a "cross-space-time stress relief",

how could this be pre-war rest?

This was simply a celebration banquet!

Bonfires flickered, and the firelight soared into the sky.

The enticing aroma of roasted meat permeated the entire divine ruins.

"Munch munch..."

Zhao Meng sat on the track of a chariot, holding an abyss demon beast thigh thicker than himself in his hands,

gnawing until his mouth was covered in grease.

"Awesome!"

"Damn it, after taking a trip to the little Japanese's place, my physical stamina consumption was too huge; I must nourish myself well!"

Beside him, Wang Jian raised his large hand and wiped the grease from his mouth:

"Boss, what on earth is this second calamity, 'Knocking on the Divine Bones' all about?"

Opposite him, Lin Zihao picked his teeth while turning his head to look at Lu Yuan.

"The first calamity was Asking the Heart, and it ended up teleporting us to a century ago."

"Listening to the name of this second calamity, could it be asking us to fight against the ancient god remains in these ruins?"

Hearing this,

the surrounding players began to discuss animatedly.

"Fight against the remains? Vice President, now that you mention it, it really is possible!"

"The first calamity beat the little Japanese, the second calamity challenges the gods!"

Everyone looked at the ancient god remains around them, which were taller than mountains,

all of them feeling immense pressure.

"If a fight breaks out... I'm afraid quite a few brothers are going to die!"

"What the hell is that to fear, buddy! Boss is here! Sister-in-law is here!"

"We aren't even afraid of the Nordic gods! Now our Dragon Country's own ancient gods surely won't make things difficult for us, right!"

"That's right! With Boss and Sister Li here, we fear neither gods nor buddhas!"

The atmosphere was relaxed and lively.

Lu Yuan leaned against a giant boulder, quietly watching the ticking countdown in the sky.

Xia Li sat by his side, her slender, fair fingers wiping a pair of dark green double blades.

"No matter what the second calamity is,"

Xia Li didn't even raise her head, her voice as cold and pure as frost.

"Just hack through it."

Hearing this, Lu Yuan hooked the corner of his mouth into a faint smile.

He stood up and patted the dust off his body.

"Brothers."

Lu Yuan's low voice spread throughout the entire camp in the night wind.

All the joking players instantly quieted down and uniformly turned to look at him.

"We're well-fed and watered, time is running out."

"Pick up your gear, get ready to work!"

Above the firmament, the countdown abruptly reached the last ten seconds!

"Ten!"

"Nine!"

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

[Ding!]

[The twelve-hour rest period has ended!]

[System lock complete!]

Rumble————!!!

At the exact moment the countdown reached zero,

the Ruins of the Archaic Divine War beneath the feet of the three hundred thousand Red Wolf Players emitted a violent roar without warning!

The earth split open!

The firmament changed color!

At the deepest part of the ruins, a bottomless, giant rift emitting blinding golden light split open!

Following that,

an extreme coercion, tens of millions of times more terrifying than the first calamity and sufficient to instantly crush a mortal's soul into dust,

erupted overwhelmingly from the rift!

Sweeping across the entire scene like a Level 12 interstellar storm!

"Holy shit!"

"This coercion... what is going on?!"

The three hundred thousand players who were chatting and laughing just moments ago were pressed to the point of breathlessness under this coercion!

Even the action of raising their weapons became extremely sluggish!

The cold system prompt tone, carrying ancient desolation, exploded in everyone's mind:

[Ding! Warning! Warning!]

[The second calamity trial of the [Three Calamities of Gods' Fall]: Knocking on the Divine Bones!]

[Has officially begun!]

[Warning: Mortal bodies cannot directly look upon gods!]

[Trial Ground——Sea of Blood! Coordinates confirmed!]

[Preparing to teleport——!]

"Swish——!!!"

Three hundred thousand pillars of extremely dazzling light soared into the sky.

The next instant, the Red Wolf Army disappeared within the Ruins of the Archaic Divine War!

The light slowly dissipated.

The intense weightlessness slowly vanished.

Lu Yuan and the others abruptly opened their eyes.

Before their eyes, there were no mountains, no ruins, and no monsters.

Only a boundless, vast sea of blood rolling with dark red light!

"Glug... glug..."

The three hundred thousand Red Wolf Army were actually all immersed in this scalding blood pool at this moment!

The bloodwater was extremely viscous.

Every single drop exuded unimaginable, boundless vitality and ancient coercion!

Before everyone could recover from the shock,

above the firmament,

a gentle, compassionate, yet endlessly desolate and weak female voice slowly sounded.

"My children..."

This voice seemed to traverse through ages of time, striking directly into the depths of every Yanhuang descendant's soul,

making people involuntarily want to prostrate in worship with tears welling up in their eyes.

"Mortal bodies cannot directly look upon gods..."

"Even less possible..."

The female voice paused, her tone carrying a hint of burn-the-boats determination.

"To be enemies with [that thing]."

"This second calamity——[Knocking on the Divine Bones]."

"I will use my remaining divine blood..."

"To reshape your tendons and bones for you!!!"

"Rumble————!!!"

The moment the voice fell,

the entire boundless dark red blood pool completely boiled!!!
