Number One Dungeon Supplier

s was just the beginning.
In addition, this seemed to merely be the start of the legend, and therefore, only the start of the dungeon, meaning the worst had yet to come.

The minotaur snorted at the palace guards before howling loudly to display his fury.
With his two handed great sword, the minotaur bashed a nearby palace guard with it, which caused him to fly towards the Heavenly Palace.
Jia Le took this chance to grab Zhi Nu before running off with Niu Lang as they ran towards the Temporal Gate of Heavens which connects the Heavens, Earth and Hell.

”You are not getting away! ” He Bao roared in anger and blew into his own hunting horn.
Subsequently, two animated stone lions, one black, one white, crawled out from the celestial floor.
These were the most common Regal guardian beasts that most senior palace guards were able to command.

The type of material the guardian beasts were made out of showed how powerful the senior guard was.
Stone was the weakest while gold was the strongest.
Most of the guardian lions that were summoned came as a pair.
The Black Stone Lion represented Yin while the White Stone Lion represented Yang.

”Go hunt down this mercenary immortal, tear him into pieces and then track down the others and kill all of them.
Go, my stone lions! ” He Bao commanded as he continued his fight with the giant Minotaur.
”I promise I will kill you! ” He Bao cursed under his breath at Niu Lang who pulled such a trick on them.

The summoned Minotaur was proving to be a tough opponent for the Palace Guards, mainly because its origin was the Heavenly Astral Ox, a named entity unlike the palace guards who had only been training without much real combat experience.

Not wanting the Minotaur to do all the work, Bin Yong also went into a fighting stance.
Just from seeing the small interactions between the palace guards and the Minotaur, he knew that this would be a tough fight…
———-

”For a place in heaven, it ’s surprisingly quiet. ” Jia Le casually commented to herself, which made her chuckled.
”It ’s a dungeon instance! If this were real, I don ’t think we would have been able to run away that easily simply due to overpopulation. ” That ’s what she thought Bin Yong ’s reply to her comment would have been and smiled.
She and the star crossed couples eventually reached the Temporal Gates of Heaven.
However, the three of them were met with another obstacle.

”I am sorry but you are not allowed to pass, Lady Zhi Nu.
And little mortal, I have to punish you for escaping my security check! ” Two gate gods, also known as Men Shen, stopped them right at the Temporal Gates of Heavens.
These divine guardians of doors and gates were used to protect the heavens against evil influences and to encourage good hearted ones to enter.

”Please! Let us go! All I want is to have a simple life with Niu Lang! Nothing else! ” Zhi Nu tried to plead the gate gods for their forgiveness.
Niu Lang once again felt useless and felt that he had made Zhi Nu suffered.

Jia Le noticed the look on Niu Lang ’s face and recognised it immediately.
She patted Niu Lang on the shoulder and said, ”Love conquers all.
Believe in it! ” Upon hearing that, Niu Lang did not know if he should be thanking the mercenary immortal for her advice since he still had no idea whether or not he believed it.

”By the Heavenly Empress ’ Decree, I cannot allow you to pass through.
However, if you prove yourself worthy through our test of strength! ” The door gods, who were talking in unison, suddenly stopped and came out from their posts at the gates.

”I, Duke Zhuang, Divine Left Gate Guardian of the Temporal Gates of Heavens. ” The red faced door god shouted out his name and wielded his two handed mace, going into a fighting stance.

”And I, Duke Zhong Wu, Divine Right Gate Guardian of the Temporal Gates of Heavens! ” The green faced door god announced his name too as he swung his halberd out in the open.

”Will battle all of you.
Till then, You shall not pass! ” Both Divine guardians of the Temporal Gates of Heavens shouted in unison as they readied their weapons against the group.
