Versatile Mage: I have 999 talents!

Chapter 180 Settle everything down and storm the sacred mountain!

Wang Feng stepped into Athens once again.

Ye Chang, Ander, and Austin were already waiting at the agreed location.

"Master." Ye Chang bowed respectfully and presented a list with both hands.

The parchment scroll was filled with detailed information about the Izusa faction.

The first one was prominently displayed with the words "Great Sage Merola".

Ander hesitated slightly, but eventually followed suit and bowed.

Austin stood to the side with his arms crossed, a strange blush on his face, his eyes darting around, seemingly lost in thought.

"How is the situation?" Wang Feng asked.

"Parthenon is closed off now. I suppose my teacher is preparing to 'resurrect'," Ander said with a self-deprecating laugh.

"Resurrect? Then just kill her completely." Wang Feng sneered, then looked at Austin and said, "Austin, come with me to the Parthenon."

Austin seemed to snap out of a daze: "Ah? Okay, okay!"

“Master, do you need me to help?” Ye Chang volunteered. “I also have some old subordinates in the Parthenon.”

The former retainers she referred to were her and Wentai's former retainers (guardian knights).

Although they had been away from Parthenon for many years, they could still be temporarily reassigned based on their past relationship.

Wang Feng shook his head: "No need. Your current identities are already those of 'dead people.' If you show up using your old identities again, it will cause unnecessary trouble."

He paused, then added, "Of course, if you want to witness the destruction of Izusa firsthand, you can secretly infiltrate Parthenon to observe the battle."

After all, the restrictions on Mount Parthenon were personally set up by Wen Tai, and even Asha Ruya was able to circumvent them, so Ye Chang was even less of a problem.

If Ye Chang wanted, returning to the Parthenon would be as easy as going home.

……

Xinghe Mountain Road.

Pang Lai frowned, her voice hoarse: "Has Wang Feng notified them yet?"

Feng Li sighed heavily and shook his head, saying, "I haven't figured out how to bring it up yet."

"What the hell is this?!" Zhu Meng grabbed his hair in frustration. "Sa Lang has already been executed in the ancient capital, and now they're saying Ye Xinxia is Salang? This is utterly absurd!"

He suddenly turned to Pang Lai: "What did Xi Yu say? Did she throw white pebbles?"

As one of the thirteen judges, Xi Yu holds the crucial power of judgment.

However, the mastermind behind this trial, Durank, had been secretly manipulating things, just as he had done with the same ruthless methods in the trial of the Holy Son Venté.

He and Merola had been planning this for a long time and absolutely could not allow it to fail.

The soul of Parthenon must be entrusted to the only goddess in his heart—Isa, to whom he swore to serve to the death!

Pang Lai's face darkened: "Xi Yu hasn't expressed his opinion yet."

"Heh," Zhu Meng sneered, a cold glint in his eyes, "You're not even giving the Grand Speaker face?"

Just then, two figures appeared at the end of the mountain path.

Wang Feng led Austin slowly in.

"You...you're here?" Zhu Meng greeted Wang Feng with a forced smile.

Wang Feng asked calmly, "What's the situation now?"

It was this eerie calm that made all three people present involuntarily tense up.

Pang Lai's Adam's apple bobbed: "It's still unclear; High Priest Song is negotiating inside."

"Heh," Wang Feng suddenly chuckled, "Never mind, the result is the same." He turned to Pang Lai: "Chief Pang Lai, where is the entrance to the Star River Mountain Path?"

Pang Lai's expression changed drastically upon hearing this.

He did indeed boast about his "heroic deeds" of venturing into the Star River Trail in his youth when he led the team to Parthenon to receive the blessing of the divine seal.

Although he actually failed at the third level...

"You...you want to venture into the Star River Mountain Pass?"

"Otherwise what?" Wang Feng's lips curled into a cold smile, a glint of icy light flashing in his eyes. "Since they like playing games with rules, then I'll play along with them to my heart's content."

"I will not only swiftly traverse the Star River Mountain Path, but also in front of all the judges, knights, sages, maids, and guests!"

"Let this sordid trial be nailed to Parthenon's pillar of shame!"

Although if he were to activate his Radiant Angel form, his fourteen wings would be enough to sweep aside Parthenon in his current state.

But... the Radiant Angel is his last trump card, so why would he flip the table at the start?

Moreover, if we use the power of angels to crush them, how can we properly "slap in the face" these hypocritical fellows?

What he wanted was to trample everything they were so proud of underfoot using Parthenon's own rules!
Moreover, he couldn't be sure if the Holy City's 'Sixth Brother' was hidden in Parthenon.

Wang Feng said to Austin, "You wait here, I'll call you when I need you."

Black Dragon Emperor Austin pursed his lips, but still obediently stood still.

She crossed her arms and looked up at the mountain path with great interest, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Amidst the shocked gazes of Pang Lai and the others, Wang Feng stepped onto the stone steps of the Star River Mountain Path.

"Om-"

In an instant, sirens blared throughout the entire Parthenon:
"Star River Mountain Path, an intruder!"

"Star River Mountain Path, an intruder!!"

"Star River Mountain Path, an intruder!!!"

The deafening alarm echoed through the mountains, instantly alerting the entire Parthenon.

Everyone looked incredulously toward the mountain path.

"How many years has it been since anyone dared to venture into the Star River Mountain Path?"

"Isn't that Wang Feng, the champion of the World University Competition?"

"Has he gone mad? How could he be so foolish as to venture into the Star River Mountain Path!"

All the people saw was a tall figure dressed in a menacing dark blue armor, slowly climbing the steps.

Fen'ai, the maid who originally served Xinxia, ​​was both worried and expectant.

She was worried that something might happen to Wang Feng, but she also hoped that he could get through the Star River Mountain Pass and rescue Saintess Xin Xia.

She firmly believed that the kind-hearted Saintess Xia would never do anything to assassinate Saintess Panija!

……

Wang Feng stopped on the steps where the first statue was located.

He slowly turned around, his gaze piercing the long-silent stone statue like a sharp blade.

"Click——"

Suddenly, the moss and dust on the surface of the stone statue peeled away, and a murky, single eye snapped open!

Those pupils gleamed with an eerie bronze luster, fixed intently on Wang Feng, radiating a chillingly fierce aura.

Greek Bronze Beasts
The stone statue fully awakened, revealing its hideous true form—its bloated, toad-like body covered in bronze scales, and its short, thick limbs brimming with explosive power!

"Roar--"

With a deafening roar, the bronze beast kicked its hind legs, causing the entire mountain path to tremble!
It transformed into a bolt of bronze lightning, its sharp horn, powerful enough to pierce through dragon scales, tearing through the air and stabbing straight at Wang Feng's throat!

The monks watching held their breath.

This is a deadly charge that can instantly pierce through even a super-level mage!
Wang Feng remained motionless, only slightly raising his right hand.

"clang--!!!"

Amidst the deafening clang of metal echoing through the valley, a scene unfolded that left everyone speechless.
Wang Feng actually managed to grab that indestructible bronze horn with his five fingers!
The terrifying kinetic energy of the bronze beast's charge transformed into a spreading shockwave beneath its feet, causing the dust on the steps to explode in a radial pattern!

"That's all?" Wang Feng sneered, and his left hand suddenly burst into blood-red flames.

The flames were eerily eerie, coiling and swirling around his arms as if they were alive.

After being amplified threefold by the Divine Seal Praise, the [Vengeful Blood Flame], with the sixfold enhancement of a top-tier Great Soul Seed, has unleashed a terrifying power comparable to a Heavenly Seed!
"Fierce Fist - Fierce Dragon!"

With a single punch, the crimson fire dragon roared and soared into the sky.

Wherever the flames passed, the air twisted and cracked, and the bluestone on the steps vaporized directly under the high temperature!

Before the Greek bronze beast could even utter a wail, its bronze body melted like wax in the blood flames, eventually turning into a wisp of smoke and disappearing.

"boom--"

The fire dragon, its momentum undiminished, burned away dozens of steps behind it, revealing charred bedrock.

The entire mountain road was deathly silent.

Three breaths!

From the moment the bronze beast awoke to the moment it vanished into nothingness, only three breaths passed!
