Hell's Handbook-Chapter 353

Just when the silvery blade was about to hit Natasha, both the silvery blade and the mecha made from Su Jins psychokinesis shattered in an instant, turning into nothing but silvery sparkles.

I admit defeat! Su Jin raised both hands.

Not only Natasha, but Durand and Oscar, who were done fighting, plus Shen Wu, who had been watching the fight thus far, looked completely confused.

Why did you admit defeat? asked Natasha puzzledly. She had clearly been cornered earlier and Su Jin was about to win the fight.

Su Jin shrugged and said, Ive used up all my psychokinesis. Whats the point of fighting when the psychokinetic owner has run out of the very power that he needs to win?

Everyone rolled their eyes at him. They now realized that while Su Jins moves had been really powerful and cool, and those two mechas seemed like celestial beings that had descended to Earth, they had consumed a huge amount of Su Jins psychokinesis.

But Su Jin was very pleased with what he had done. Before this, he had been limiting his psychokinesis very carefully, so even if he created clones of himself, he made sure they were only about as capable as his own body. But when he saw how Natasha had transformed into such a huge and invincible dragon, he decided to try making a huge mecha that was much larger and more powerful than himself. He was pleasantly surprised to find that it had worked out pretty well.

However, this move was not in preparation for his current state, but in preparation for what he would be like once the seal around his psychokinesis was completely broken. When that happened, he was sure that making mechas could become something he could do anytime and anywhere.

What Su Jin had done only amazed the group for a short moment, since a technique that couldnt last more than a minute was kind of useless.

Over the next few days, the five of them continued dueling in the arena non-stop. It was the first time Su Jin could give it all he had and use every bit of energy he possessed, because the other party could still fight back.

After three days, even though none of them actually said it out loud, their capabilities had all improved. Each of them were extremely formidable, but that was also why it was hard for them to find someone whom they could actually fight and they werent really sure where their own limits were. But now, every person in the arena was just as formidable or more formidable, so it forced them to push themselves beyond their current limits, and they were able to grow further.

Among the five of them, Su Jin was obviously the one who had the lowest chance of winning any fight. The ranking of the owners was very accurate because it took into account every aspect of each owner. But despite that, Su Jin did not lose miserably, and he even defeated Durand once.

And it was when he defeated Durand that the rest officially accepted him as one of them. Being able to defeat Durand meant that Su Jin did have some of the best skills in fighting, so none of them had the right to belittle him.

They were pretty much done with sparring, so Natasha decided it was about time they could embark on the Challenge. Sparring in this arena could only do so much, so they would have to wait for the Challenge itself to further hone their skills.

Natasha gave them one day to get themselves ready, so Su Jin returned to his world. But he didnt need any time to get ready or make any arrangements, since he was all by himself now. He was just going to wait until it was time to gather again.

The Demon Lord saw that Su Jin had returned and immediately went over to ask, Where have you been these past few days? I didnt see you at all.

Ive been training with a few folks, were gonna do something real big, said Su Jin with a grin.

Real big? How big could it be? The Demon Lord threw him a disdainful glance. She had gone through everything Su Jin had been through, and it was now nothing to her.

A Heaven Level Challenge. Big enough for you? said Su Jin.

The Demon Lord was stunned for a moment, then she frowned and asked, Which one? The Nest of the Past? The Fabricated World? The Grave of the Gods?

Oho! It is the Grave of the Gods! Su Jin nodded. He didnt expect her to know about the Grave of the Gods.

She frowned even harder and hesitated before saying, Given your current capabilities, you could give it a shot. But if youre going there alone, you can forget about it.

No, five of us are going together, and Im actually the weakest of the lot, said Su Jin as he rubbed his nose awkwardly. It was a bit embarrassing to admit that he was the worst of the group.

But the Demon Lord nodded and said, That sounds more like it. The chances of succeeding are still low, but at least its not zero anymore. freewebn(o)vel

O Great Demon Lord, since you know so much, could you give me a few tips before I go? Su Jin grinned cheekily as he started massaging her shoulders. If he could get some information from her, his journey ahead would be easier.

But she slapped his hands away and scoffed, Stop trying to think of shortcuts or anything like that. Doing that will only lead you to death in a Challenge. Besides, its rumored that the Grave of the Gods has 796 entrances and the situation at each entrance is different. Even if I told you what I went through back then, the chances that itll be useful to you are very low.

If that was really the case, Su Jin agreed that her experience wouldnt be useful to him. He paused to think, then asked another question, Then could you tell me what we can get out of this Challenge?

That I can, she nodded, before looking very seriously at him, You will get the chance to become a god.

Wha-? Su Jin blinked, then grumbled, Thats it? I know we get the chance to become a god too. What Im asking is, what does that chance look like?

How would I know? Every persons chance looks different, and youre only likely to get a chance. Its also possible for you to find nothing in there and return with your tail between your legs, said the Demon Lord matter-of-factly.

Su Jin rolled his eyes and thought about what else he could ask. I heard that you can get a Badge of Godhood. Is that true?

Its true. Back then, finding something like that in the Grave of the Gods wasnt something strange, anyway, the Demon Lord nodded.

Su Jin continued, So, if Im just saying, if I got hold of it, what can I do with it?

She pressed one finger on her temple as she considered this question, A Badge of Godhood? If you can get it, give it to me! Of course, Chimimoryo would probably need it quite badly too.

Oh? Why should I give it to you guys? asked Su Jin.

If you give it to me, I will be able to restore my capabilities and become a top tier god again. If you give it to that longbow, it would be able to take its last step to evolve into a god, said the Demon Lord.

Su Jin eyed her and asked, So why dont I use it for myself?

Two reasons. Firstly, there are very strict requirements regarding the use of the Badge. If you want to use it now, you will need to spend a huge amount of time and energy. Secondly, if you want to become a god that can revive the dead, its impossible to do that with the Badge. Those who use a Badge to become a god will have to depend on the power of the Badge.

The Badge from a top tier god will be able to help you to get to the second level of godhood, a Badge from a second tier god will get you to the third level, a third tier Badge will get you into the fourth level, and a fourth tier Badge will only barely get you into godhood, and youre going to be the weakest of all gods, she explained.

Su Jin nodded slightly. If that were truly the case, then this Badge of Godhood would be useless to him. Shen Wu probably didnt know about this, otherwise he wouldnt put in so much effort just to get this item.

A day passed by quickly, and Su Jin returned to Hells Bar. He and Natasha arrived first, followed by Oscar, then Durand and Shen Wu. Each of them had their own faction and people to take care of, so even though they would only disappear for a very short period of time while going through a Challenge, if someone found out they would definitely be gone during this time and launched an attack or ambush, that short period of time could be detrimental to them. That was why they needed time to get ready before embarking on the Challenge.

Once everyone had gathered, Natasha asked, Were all here, so Ill begin the Challenge? Everyone nodded, so Natasha took the key from her Handbook and slammed it hard between her palms. Everything went black before their eyes.

When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in a vast, empty wasteland. There were no plants, as if this place did not allow any forms of life to exist. In the middle of the wasteland stood a gigantic bronze door with chaotic and random drawings carved into it. Each drawing gave off an ancient and mysterious air.

But when Su Jin looked more closely, he suddenly realized that these drawings were more jumbled rather than random, like a pile of jigsaw puzzle pieces.
