Six hours later, Gu Xi was woken up by a series of vibrations. He looked up and saw a giant red-haired hand descending from the sky, attempting to pull a plastic spade stuck at the edge of the castle.

This was clearly the power of the Evil God from outside.

Gu Xi wasn’t quite sure if the other side still had intentions for the castle in front of him.

He didn’t care that he was still a bit dizzy, quickly flipping himself up from the ground.

"Prepare to enter the castle, let’s move quickly!"

Gu Xi glanced at the speed of the giant hand’s descent; it would take about another three hours before it reached the spade.

Gu Xi immediately pushed with his hand, and the main city gate that had been placed on the open ground crashed directly into the city wall in front of him.

As he released the city gate, Gu Xi finally had the chance to gaze at the castle before him.

This castle was completely in the architectural style of the Sleeping Beauty Castle, composed of towers, walls, and a high fort.

Between the buildings, there were no doors or windows.

From a distance, it gave the impression of being carved from a single massive stone.

But from Gu Xi’s position, one would notice the castle was made of bricks and stones.

However, the positions of doors and windows were blocked off by someone.

This was a test for Gu Xi.

Not only did he have to use the power of Death City to release the city gate, but he also had to accurately place it in the corresponding position.

Otherwise, if the city gate was misplaced, and he accidentally removed some load-bearing walls, it would be a disaster.

Thus, Gu Xi had to precisely embed the city gate into the castle wall.

After circling around a bit, Gu Xi decisively pointed forward.

"City gate!"

The main city gate of Yalidov directly crashed toward the position Gu Xi indicated.

Upon contact with the castle, the city gate surprisingly began to merge slowly into the wall.

As the city gate opened, the first thing Gu Xi saw was the hall behind it.

Seeing all this, Gu Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief, understanding that he had succeeded.

Without overthinking, Gu Xi waved his hand: "Robbie, occupy this castle; Arroyo, guard the city gate here."

With that, Gu Xi led his men into the castle.

As soon as he stepped into the castle, Gu Xi felt a distorted force emanating from beneath the castle.

This force felt like the power of death, yet it maintained vitality.

It felt like the power of life, yet it induced a death-like slumber.

At this moment, Gu Xi realized the situation of the castle before him.

He also understood that the battlefield was now his.

Clutching the Cold Wind Staff, Gu Xi strode into the hall.

Upon Gu Xi’s entry, the hall suddenly lit up. The King and Queen of the castle, along with a multitude of ministers, soldiers, and servants appeared, casting an eerie gaze at Gu Xi.

Their state was exactly as Gu Xi observed—not truly alive, yet not quite dead.

Seeing this scene, Gu Xi thought of bringing Amirka with the Red Knight over for a look.

The same semi-alive, semi-dead existence; why could they play out roles like King and Queen so excellently?

Secretly mocking them in his heart, Gu Xi kept his hands busy.

The first to charge in was Luo Gei, leading the Bone-Slaying Camp forward.

As they moved, the soldiers guarding the hall also sprang into action.

These soldiers raised their long spears, forming a line to block Robbie’s Bone-Slaying Camp outside.

At the same time, the suddenly appearing King stood up, grinning at Gu Xi as he spoke.

Gu Xi didn’t hear any sound, but he knew the meaning behind the King’s words.

Out of so many choices, Gu Xi chose the most difficult path, fighting his way upward.

Difficult?

Gu Xi chuckled, confident in his troops’ combat power.

In Gu Xi’s view, when nothing was clear, fighting out was the most reasonable approach.

Not only did he order his men to strike forward, but Gu Xi also joined the fray.

With force, Gu Xi tapped the Cold Wind Staff on the ground, "Death Ripple!"

Under Gu Xi’s command, the aura of death instantaneously expanded outward from him as the center.

The power of the Death Ripple wasn’t strong, but its targeting was very precise.

When entering this castle, Gu Xi already sensed that it was the best place to use Death Ripple.

Everything like the King and Queen in front of him were influenced by some power, existing at the balance between life and death.

Upon releasing Death Ripple, whether King or Queen, or those soldiers in front of him, their death qi overwhelmed their life force.

Their bodies immediately became rigid.

Simultaneously, their skin began to rot, and even their bones started to grow brittle, as if time had accelerated, rapidly transforming everything in the room.

The room became cold, and the King even transformed into a skeleton, shouting with an open mouth repeatedly.

From his motions, Gu Xi could see that he seemed to be saying.

"Do you know what you have done?"

However, Gu Xi didn’t care about any of this.

What he least liked was dealing with riddle-speaker types of beings.

When the King spoke without a sound, Gu Xi knew that this was the third trial.

If they had clarified the circumstances before, Gu Xi might have valued them more.

Now, Gu Xi was full of disdain.

Playing riddles without letting people flip the table, what are you thinking?

"Robbie, what are you waiting for? Attack!"

Robbie, who had been standing at the front, finally reacted, raising his two-handed longsword, charging towards the soldiers and the King with his men.

And Gu Xi stood on the spot, keeping a close watch on every move in the battle.

Behind Gu Xi, one unit after another swiftly strode out from the city gate, beginning to join the battle in front of them.

Those kings, ministers, and whatnot in this hall actually had no real strength.

After becoming Undead, they were weaker to the extreme, easily slain at a whim.

Under Gu Xi’s command, Robbie swiftly dispatched all enemies present.

Indeed, as the King had said, Gu Xi chose the most challenging path for himself.

This trial was actually testing whether the arrival had mastered the abilities of the Death Lord.

If mastered, he should be able to communicate with them, complete some tasks given by the King, accept the King’s help, and finally obtain the Thorned Crown hidden inside the castle.

This, of course, was the simplest route.

But there was a problem inside that required completing tasks with time.

What Gu Xi didn’t have now was time.

From the beginning, when these kings appeared, the life power on them made Gu Xi understand that they didn’t fully consume the skills effect of the Death Lord.

In addition to the challenge in the King’s words, Gu Xi flipped the table on the spot.

He planned to use a method no one else had to break the situation.
