Survival for All: I can deconstruct projections and synthesize everything.

Lin Xiao replied seriously, "It's impossible to estimate!"

In fact, based on Lin Xiao's understanding of high-level combat power from the Wind and Thunder Demon Dragon, he could still barely deduce the specific combat power of the eighth-level Golden King.

But... that was just too shocking.

Zhuge Duo also analyzed Lin Xiao's tone and his statement about Lin Xiao's fourth-tier combat strength, and was able to glimpse a corner of the Golden King's combat power.

However, even the mighty Golden King was imprisoned within the Misty World.

This fact shocked Lin Xiao and Zhuge Duo even more.

"After learning about such a shocking event, what are your thoughts?"

The King of Gold stared intently at the screen, wanting to know what Lin Xiao and Zhuge Duo were thinking.

Watching from across the screen, the King of Gold saw Lin Xiao and Zhuge Duo exchange a glance, then burst into laughter.

"Hahahahaha!"

After they laughed, a strong urge to see through the fog welled up inside them.

"As a descendant of the Marquis of Wu and a possessor of SSS-level talent, I would rather see the supreme being within the mist! Even if it means dying for it!" After laughing, Zhuge Duo looked at the giant painting and said seriously.

"Hehe, same to you, me too!" Lin Xiao chimed in.

Then, Lin Xiao and Zhuge Duo exchanged another glance, smiled, and left the giant painting, heading headlong into the endless corridor.

As Lin Xiao and Zhuge Duo's laughter echoed through the corridor, the road ahead gradually brightened.

Only Sheng and Xun looked at each other, wondering what the two were laughing about. Since neither of them had the Fog System, they also didn't know what the paintings on the wall were about.

The Golden King, watching the scene on the screen from underground, chuckled: "While your mindset is commendable, I hope you can maintain it after witnessing the true terror deep within the mist!"

As he spoke, the King of Gold flicked his fingers, and Lin Xiao and his group on the screen walked out of the endless corridor.

We've arrived at the third and final level designed by the King of Gold.

The first and second trials tested Lin Xiao and his companions' willpower, while the third trial, naturally, tested their combat strength.

After walking out of the endless corridor, what came into view before Lin Xiao and his companions was a vast arena.

In the middle of this vast arena made of gold stood a tall figure.

When Lin Xiao and Zhuge Duo looked at the figure, their pupils shrank immediately, because the figure was none other than the King of Gold.

Lin Xiao carefully observed the figure for a while before realizing that the Golden King's figure was not at its strongest, but rather resembled a phantom, and was still in its youth, that is, when the Golden King had reached the fourth level of strength.

Even so, Lin Xiao still looked at the King of Gold with a dark expression.

Because it can be seen from that giant painting that the Golden King is almost invincible among beings of the same level.

It should be noted that in the giant painting, the Golden King, at the seventh rank, was able to single-handedly fight three beings of the same seventh rank as him, and even had a slight advantage.

This test was specially prepared by the King of Gold for Lin Xiao and the others. Lin Xiao's strength level was at the fourth level, so the King of Gold also set his phantom to the fourth level.

Upon closer inspection, Lin Xiao discovered a sign standing next to the phantom of the Golden King, with four pieces of information written on it.

Rule number one: Lose or die.

Article 2, Ping Ke Li.

Article 3: Victory will be rewarded.

And lastly, the time limit is 30 minutes.

In other words, losing within 30 minutes means death, surviving for 30 minutes allows you to leave the Golden Treasury, and defeating the phantom of the Golden King will earn you the Golden King's reward.

In this battle, neither Zhuge Duo, Sheng, nor Xun can provide assistance.

After all, with their fourth-tier combat power, the second-tier beings were simply easy targets for them to kill.

Upon seeing this situation, Zhuge Duo immediately activated the River of Fate, hoping to increase Lin Xiao's chances of winning.

However, given the difference between the second and fourth tiers, Zhuge Duo was simply unable to alter the fate of the two of them.

Immediately, Zhuge Duo's expression became anxious, because she could no longer even see through the fate of herself and the others.

Seeing Zhuge Duo's somewhat anxious expression, Lin Xiao instructed Sheng and Qian to take good care of Zhuge Duo.

Then, swaying his body, he came to the King of Gold.

Meanwhile, Zhuge Duo and the other two were separated by a golden barrier to prevent the aftershocks of the battle between the two fourth-tier fighters from affecting them.

Lin Xiao naturally knew from the sign next to the King of Gold that this was the final checkpoint.

"Heh, at the very least, it should be a draw. If we can defeat the phantom of the Golden King, that would be the best outcome!" Lin Xiao's eyes were fixed on the Golden King.

But no matter how much Lin Xiao thought highly of the King of Gold, he couldn't stop the fact that the King of Gold was defeated by Lin Xiao in one move.

As the saying goes, even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit, and Lin Xiao, facing the terrifying Golden King in the giant painting, naturally used all his power as well.

At that moment, Lin Xiao directly summoned the fifth-tier item he had obtained, the Mountain Seal. A towering mountain appeared in the air and crashed down towards the Golden King.

Under the watchful eyes of Lin Xiao and Zhuge Duo, the Golden King's eye twitched as he speechlessly stared at the mountain peak hurtling towards him.

The phantom of the Golden King offered no resistance whatsoever, allowing the mountain peak to smash him apart.

"..."

The Golden Arena was silent as Zhuge Duo stared blankly at Lin Xiao's movements.

Just a few seconds later, the phantom of the Golden King coalesced once more.

Then, the phantom of the Golden King glared at Lin Xiao with displeasure: "You've gone too far! I only condensed a phantom with fourth-tier combat power, and you actually used a fifth-tier item to attack me. If that's the case, can I also take out a sixth-tier or even seventh-tier item from my treasure vault?"

"Well……"

Although Lin Xiao felt that he was right to use his full strength directly, he was still somewhat speechless under the gaze of the Golden King.

All I could do was keep saying I'd be more careful next time.

When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Lin Xiao was helpless against the King of Gold's cheating.

When facing an enemy of equal strength, quickly and effectively eliminating them is undoubtedly Lin Xiao's primary concern.

But since the King of Gold wanted to have a full-fledged battle with Lin Xiao, which was only at the fourth level, Lin Xiao naturally wouldn't refuse.
