Cultivation Pet Shop

Momonga and Angela both revealed awkward expressions.

They had been too caught up by the conversation between the two and how strong they had been that they had completely forgotten about this.

Angela was about to head out to help Leo, but Momonga raised a hand first and stopped her.

Angela glared at Momonga, but he just revealed a bitter smile and said, "Let me take care of this, there's something I need to do."

Even if Angela still had a natural dislike for the undead, she had to admit that Momonga was different after spending so long with him. To a certain extent, she no longer viewed him as the same undead as before.

After pausing for a second, Angela took a step back and moved out of the way. However, when she did move, she didn't forget to give a soft snort first.

Momonga revealed a smile before giving a nod and heading out.

Leo was still slowly being pushed back by Hades who seemed to be in no rush to finish the fight. Leo continued to fire out lightning balls one after another, but Hades had already created a funnel with the specters that he controlled that had completely sucked in all the lightning balls.

It was clear that Leo was getting weaker since each of his lightning balls were slowly decreasing in size.

When Hades was about to take a step forward and do something, there was a sudden change as a skeletal hand completely made of bones came out of the ground, grabbing at Hades.

Hades immediately knit his brows when this appeared and he sent his specters out at the skeletal hand that was crashing down on him, but the skeletal hand completely scattered every single specter that it came in contact with.

Finally Hades gathered his energy together and created a spike with the specters that pierced right at the center of the skeletal hand, which was finally able to stop it from falling down on him. However, after a few seconds of clashing, the two sides were both pushed back.

Even though they had both been pushed back, it was clear that Hades had been on the losing end since he was pushed back further than the skeletal hand.

Hades immediately looked around to see the source of this skeletal hand, but he was unable to find the source, so he shouted, "Which expert is it that they are willing to resort to sneak attacks?"

Unlike the other NPCs in this test who hadn't reacted to interference from Lin Fan's group at all, Hades was the first one to register this interference.

Momonga slowly floated up from the wall and appeared in between the two of them.

Both of these experts looked at Momonga with surprised gazes since neither of them could see through his cultivation. They were both Rulers, yet they were unable to see through his cultivation, that meant that he was either a peak Ruler or even worse, someone in the God Realm.

Neither case was good, but if they had to choose, they would have preferred a peak Ruler since that was at least something they could contend with. If it was a God Realm Expert, all they could do was wait for death.

Hades knit his brows once again and asked, "May I ask which expert it is that has decided to interfere this time?"

Momonga didn't respond to this directly, instead he just said, "All you need to know is that your attack on this realm won't work today. I suggest you leave as soon as possible."

Hades' brows knit even deeper at this while Leo revealed a look of joy. However, Hades had prepared all of this and if he were to head back without accomplishing anything, his pride wouldn't allow him to accept this.

So Hades didn't give up as he asked, "Is there a reason why you are helping them Leo today? Or if possible, is there anything I can do to convince you to come to my…"

But before he could finish, Momonga had already raised his other hand and another skeletal hand had already appeared out of the ground.

Using both these hands, he pushed Hades back again and again, crushing every single attack he formed using his specters.

Eventually Hades knew that he wouldn't be able to do anything else today, so he prepared to run. However, when he did, Momonga strangely didn't want to let him run away, so he suddenly created two skeletons that completely blocked off all routes of escape for him.

Lin Fan didn't know why, but he felt that Momonga was strangely being personally affected by this test. It was like there was some memory that had been triggered in him.

Momonga working with the two skeletons he summoned eventually was able to smash Hades into the ground. Hades spat out a mouthful of blood when he landed on the ground, but he didn't give up fighting until the very end.

Still, there was a big difference between him and Momonga who was an expert at the peak of the Ruler Realm, one of the top experts in the universe.

Then again, this was only a simulated space for the test, so the power that the simulated Hades used wasn't even close to the true power of the Ruler Realm. He was able to use life energy that was at the same level as a Ruler, but his laws were far lacking.

In the end, Momonga didn't even have to use his Realm to deal with Hades.

Hades had an unwilling look on his face as he was crushed by the pair of skeletal hands that fell down on him, but there truly was nothing he could do. In the end, he and Momonga were just in two different classes.

Leo was also different from the other NPCs, fully being able to react to Momonga's interference like Hades.

Leo slowly floated over to Momonga while clutching his waist before cupping his hands and saying, "Many thanks for the help…"

But before he could finish, there was a sparkle in his eyes as they suddenly cleared.

Then after a slight pause, he said, "Lord Momonga, is that you?"

Momonga turned back to Leo. Seeing his cleared eyes and sensing the aura that he gave, he gave a nod without saying a thing.

Leo gave a sigh before lowering his head to Momonga, "Lord Momonga, it truly is good seeing you again, but unfortunately it seems like it's too late. But since you are here, I hope that you will be able to take the legacy of my realm and stop the real Hades before it's too late."

Momonga didn't say anything and just gave a nod.

At this Leo revealed a smile, but that didn't last long before his eyes glazed over once again and then a mechanical voice came out of his mouth, "Congratulations on passing the test perfectly. You have earned a special reward."

Then Leo's appearance suddenly changed. It was like the outside skin was completely peeled off and all that was left was a gray skinned mannequin. This grey skinned mannequin floated out in front of Momonga and stayed there waiting for him to claim it.

Also from the hole that Hades had been smashed into, there was another mannequin that also floated out to appear in front of Momonga.

Both of them just floated in the air waiting to be claimed.

Momonga took the two grey skinned mannequins and floated back to Lin Fan where he handed the mannequins over.

Lin Fan was confused by this as he asked, "What is this thing?"

Momonga didn't even bother looking over as he explained, "Those two are Soul Avatars, they're puppets that can be controlled by a user with life energy. It takes the life energy of the user and will create a copy of the user that has the same cultivation realm as the user. These things can't take the amount of life energy that me and the girl release, so they're no use to use. You can have them."

Lin Fan's eyes lit up when he heard this and he quickly injected his life energy into them. The two mannequins quickly changed and turned into perfect copies of Lin Fan, even with the same life energy that he had.

The moment that the two changed into Lin Fan, Lin Fan had a strange feeling. It was like he had suddenly gained two more pairs of eyes, or rather two more pairs of everything.

His brain immediately became dizzy with all the extra sensory input, but he also quickly learned that he could shut them off with just a single thought.

Once he shut off this sensory input, he noticed that the eyes of the two mannequins which had been sparkling when he was controlling them had glazed over. It was like the light had been taken out of them as the two Lin Fan copies stood there lifelessly.

After calming himself, Lin Fan began to experiment with the two copies.

He found that he was able to control them with his mind, just like he was controlling his own body. But another thing he could do was that he could leave a command with these two which allowed them to move without direct control from them. Once they finished the command, they would revert back to their lifeless state.

Lin Fan did many different experiments with these avatars until he was finally satisfied with his control.

It was only then that he noticed that there was something in the hands of one of the avatars, specifically the one that had been Leo. He had been too busy with learning how to control these avatars that he hadn't noticed it the entire time until now.

Opening the hand of the mannequin, he found that it was a key.
