Chapter 769 - 769 Playing With Lightning In Front of Me?
“Little guy, do you need any help?”
Just as Lin Qiye tried to think of a solution, a figure suddenly tore through the sealed space and descended before him.
Lin Qiye was shocked. He looked up and saw an amiable-looking old man with grey hair staring at him with a smile.
“Who are you?”
Lin Qiye was not relieved. Instead, he was a little wary.
After all, he was at the center of the demon army. Not only was the space here tightly sealed, but there was also a terrifying energy constantly crushing every inch.
His divine lightning and the destructive power of the demon army were both present.
Apart from him and the demons who controlled these two forces respectively, he was sure that even if a Rank 9 Half-Supreme were to come, they would be annihilated under the crushing pressure of these two forces!
However…
The grey-haired elder did not seem affected by the two forces at all.
Could it be…
Was he a Supreme?
Lin Qiye’s heart trembled at the thought of this.
Even if the other party wasn’t a Supreme, he was probably someone comparable to the Heavenly Star Daoist!
However, Lin Qiye had never interacted with such a strong person before. The other party’s purpose was undoubtedly obvious.
“You don’t need to know who I am. You only need to know I’m the only one who can save you now.”
The elder laughed as he stroked his beard.
Lin Qiye, however, calmed down. He looked at him and said indifferently, “Save me? You’re also here for the Divine Weapon, aren’t you?”
The grey-haired elder was not surprised Lin Qiye had exposed his intentions.
He smiled and said, “That’s right, a Divine Weapon in exchange for your life. I think this should be a great deal.”
In the eyes of the elder, Lin Qiye had no reason to refuse.
After all, no matter how good the treasure was, what use was it if he lost his life?
However, to the grey-haired elder’s surprise, Lin Qiye’s reply was a sneer.
“Ha, it’s a good deal! Can you give me a Divine Weapon in exchange for your life?”
To Lin Qiye, Wan wasn’t just a treasure.
Wan Meng had fallen into a slumber to protect him. How could he hand it over to someone else?
“Little fellow, no matter how good the treasure is, you must be alive to enjoy it!”
The grey-haired old man’s face turned cold.
While the two were in a state of mutual hostility, King Tuo Ni, commanding the army of demons to carry out a suicide attack, was shocked and annoyed.
He did not know what Lin Qiye talked about with the old man who had suddenly appeared.
But this was his territory!
Under such circumstances, they still dared to chat in front of him. Aren’t they looking down on him too much?
In an instant, King Tuo Ni’s anger rose from his heart, and he was filled with courage.
He didn’t even consider the strength of the white-haired elder. He immediately called out to thousands of Immortal Realm demons and rushed toward him.
The grey-haired elder also felt displeased.
Suddenly, he sensed a large group of Immortal Realm demons locking onto him. He immediately snorted coldly.
His right foot stepped in the air, and invisible energy turned into an arrow and shot out.
The leading King Tuo Ni rushed halfway, but before he could react to the situation, he felt his body stiffen.
Then, he realized his energy had started to go out of control and evaporated at an alarming speed.
In the blink of an eye, he felt he had lost over thirty percent of his energy!
This sudden change frightened him so much that he hurriedly fled. He didn’t care about the Immortal Realm demons still charging forward, and he plunged into the inner wall of the demon ball.
“Little guy, I’ll give you one last chance. You’d better think carefully before you make a decision.”
The grey-haired elder snorted coldly after easily repelling King Tuo Ni. He proudly flicked his embroidered robe and looked disdainfully at Lin Qiye.
‘Was he trying to intimidate me?’
Lin Qiye looked at King Tuo Ni, hiding in the depths of the demon horde and the Immortal Realm demons forced back by the white-haired elder’s domain.
He had confirmed that the elder’s strength could not be that of a true Supreme, but rather, like the Heavenly Star Daoist back then. He was half a step into the threshold of a Supreme.
What should he do?
It was impossible to hand over Wan Meng to him.
However, if he couldn’t even deal with the demon army, how could he spare the strength to deal with him?
Since that was the case…
Lin Qiye looked at the progress on the Life Lantern Gem’s interface.
He gritted his teeth and decided.
This old geezer’s background was unknown. Even if he handed Wan Meng over to him, he would probably be killed.
...
Rather than giving up his life in vain, it was better to take a gamble.
Even if the Demon King’s Heart completely awakened and turned him into a demon, he would drag this old geezer and these demons down with him!
“How is it? Have you thought about it?”
The grey-haired elder waited for a few seconds. When he saw that Lin Qiye did not respond, he asked impatiently.
“Of course.”
Lin Qiye looked up at him with a smile on his face. However, the smile seemed particularly terrifying in the eyes of the grey-haired elder.
“My decision is, f*ck yourself!”
Before he could finish his sentence, with Lin Qiye as the center, the surrounding time and space suddenly froze.
[Life Lantern Gem prompt: The Demon King’s Heart awakening depth: 100%]
[Demon King’s Heart awakening progress: 99.9%… 100%]
[Warning: The Demon King’s Heart has been awakened. Its effect is unknown.]
...
Just as the Demon King’s Heart was about to awaken fully, Lin Qiye decided to go all out and increase the awakening depth to 100%.
