Chapter 190: The Ultimate Trick! The Beastly Immortal Monarch! (Part 2)
Chapter 190: The Ultimate Trick! The Beastly Immortal Monarch! (Part 2)
But that terrifying high temperature was a real headache. No one had any defense against it, and it was unbearable!
So, they all considered...
If a battle were to break out...
Who should they target?
Fire Ghost was definitely out of the question. He hadn't been injured and retained his full power.
Unbearable!
Even the Blue Blood Daoist was not to be trifled with.
Even if his condition was not at his peak after the soul possession, and he was perhaps only at sixty percent of his strength, he was still not someone an ordinary seventh realm cultivator could provoke. Once pushed to the edge, no one could withstand him.
The three from the Qin Royal Manor...
Damn, they were also not to be messed with!
Another little sun, who could withstand that?
Whoever took action would die!
Although, in their eyes, this invincible technique would definitely extremely exhausting, and normally, Wang Teng shouldn't be able to use it a second time, but no one dared to take that chance.
This... isn't this saying...
We can only fight amongst ourselves?!
There were only a few spots available in the Ko family,
Nine!
They took five, leaving only four.
In other words, out of the twelve of us, only four could survive?!
This...
They suddenly felt some regret.
Perhaps, they shouldn't have chosen to continue.
Before even entering, it was already a matter of twelve entering, four leaving, with a death rate of over sixty percent. Once inside, how dangerous would it be?!
However, Yuan Yang Immortal King seemed to be too lazy to wait any longer.
His impatient voice echoed faintly, "Hmm?"
"Why haven't you reduced the numbers to nine or fewer yet?"
"You're all so inefficient, and I, the Immortal King, have no time to waste with you. So, I'll give you a number."
"Three breaths..."
"If, within three breaths, you can't reduce the number of people to nine or less..."
"I, the Immortal King, will kill all of you."
"After all, I, the Immortal King, am always willing to help others. So, I'll do you a favor and help you out."
"Now..."
"The countdown begins!"
What?!
Everyone's hearts skipped a beat.
Damn!
How could this be done in three breaths?
Unless someone willingly sacrificed themselves, offering their neck for execution.
But who would choose that?
"Unite!"
Fire Ghost's scalp went numb, "Blue Blood Daoist, the Qin Royal Manor's people, let's unite and kill them immediately, or we'll all die!"
"Good!"
The Blue Blood Daoist agreed without hesitation, and they didn't even wait for Qin Yu, Wang Teng, and the others to agree before taking action.
In their eyes, as long as Wang Teng and the others didn't want to die, they would definitely unite.
After all, three breaths were too short.
Even if they didn't unite, it would still be difficult to achieve...
However.
Qin Yu and the other two stood in their original spots, not moving at all.
Wen Ren Rici and the others were also puzzled amidst their fear.
In their eyes, they were all going to die!
After all, wouldn't everyone know what to choose in this situation?
The time was too short, and these powerful cultivators would definitely unite to eliminate the weaker ones to ensure their own survival.
Therefore, they had already prepared to fight desperately to defend themselves.
As long as they could outlive the others, they might have a chance! Or, if all else failed, they could all die together, at least avoiding becoming a stepping stone for others.
But...
Why weren't Wang Teng and the others taking action? Why didn't they unite to defend against Fire Ghost and the Blue Blood Daoist? It wouldn't be difficult for them.
At least, within three breaths, it wouldn't be difficult.
However, Wang Teng and the other two's inaction made them feel a sense of foreboding.
"Don't you understand yet?"
At this moment, Wang Teng spoke, sighing, "In terms of age, each of you could be my ancestors, but why are your brains so useless?"
"From the start until now, have you not guessed what this Yuan Yang Immortal King is trying to achieve?"
"Three breaths?"
"Even if we unite, what are our chances?"
"Thirty percent? Twenty percent?"
"In my opinion, not even one percent."
Wang Teng spread his hands, "So, choosing to unite is basically a dead end."
"Do you want to just sit and wait for death?" The Blue Blood Daoist was annoyed.
"Don't you have a brain?"
"You had your head chopped off, and it was smashed to pieces, so it's normal for you to be brainless." Wang Teng mocked, "Did you forget that there's another way to enter the core area, and no one has to die?"
Everyone: "..."
The battle suddenly came to a halt.
Everyone realized the truth!
They understood that the Yuan Yang Immortal King didn't want them to fight to the death or kill everyone.
Three breaths...
In the end, market understanding were crucial. It was about melting three flying swords!
"You..."
Ko Deping clenched his teeth, "Do you want to die together, or melt the flying swords?"
"There's less than two breaths left!"
Fire Ghost and the other two were filled with frustration and anger.
"This is outrageous!"
"Yuan Yang Immortal King, you're really... good at scheming!"
They were so frustrated they almost spat blood.
Damn it, after finally obtaining this Supreme Dao Soldier-level flying sword, you're making us melt it ourselves, or we'll all die?!
The most critical part was that we had to use our own treasures to bring them into the core area?!
Damn it, if we don't agree, we all die...
Do we have a choice?
"Good, good!"
"Good for you, Yuan Yang Immortal King, I'll remember you."
"How infuriating!"
They roared, but they had no choice. They took out their flying swords, gritting their teeth and feeling the pain as they threw them into the blazing entrance...
The Supreme Dao Soldier-level flying swords quickly turned into molten iron and then completely disappeared...
"Ah!"
The Blue Blood Daoist howled.
He was the most frustrated and the biggest loser! Naturally, he was also the most heartbroken.
It was at this moment that the Yuan Yang Immortal King's voice echoed again.
"Hahaha!"
After a burst of laughter, he said cheerfully, "Congratulations, you made the right choice, and you all survived. Honestly, why didn't you make this choice from the beginning?"
"People are too greedy. This is the first lesson I'm teaching you."
"Remember, don't be too greedy in the future!"
"Next, we'll move on to the second lesson."
"However, for this second lesson, you'll need to enter through the core area's entrance."
You're asking about the entrance?
Blue Blood Daoist, Fire Ghost, and the other two were so frustrated that their hearts were dripping blood.
Unable to hold back his frustration, he exclaimed, "Where is the entrance?!"
Our flying swords have melted, and we're at a disadvantage. You can't just not provide the entrance!
"The entrance? Didn't I already show it to you? Oh, I didn't tell you? It's this cave. Just throw your flying swords into it like this~"
"Ah, so the second lesson is actually..."
"You should carefully observe and boldly verify. Don't immediately resort to fighting and killing unless you have the strength to sweep through everything. But clearly, you don't have that kind of power."
"So..."
Qin Yu's mouth twitched. Even he hadn't expected Yuan Yang Immortal King to be this devious!!!
"So, this is actually the entrance, and we don't need to fight among ourselves or melt our flying swords. We can just enter directly and reach the core area?!"
"You got it right~ But what can you do when you're not smart enough?"
Yuan Yang Immortal King burst into laughter.
"Quickly, go in!"
Everyone: "..."
Slap!!!
Everyone's brains felt like they were jumping out of their skulls, their mouths twitched uncontrollably, and their brows furrowed deeply.
Fire Ghost and his two companions were especially heartbroken.
After such a huge loss, you're telling us that we can just walk in? Yuan Yang Immortal King?
You're a real jerk!
Forget about being an Immortal King; you're more like a dog!
Even the howling celestial dog would bow down and admit defeat! You beast!
Fire Ghost, known for his villainous role, had killed countless people, and his KDA (kills, deaths, and assists) was undoubtedly the highest. Even he was so infuriated that he felt dizzy and wanted to curse again.
Moreover, he couldn't imagine what kind of Immortal King could be so devious.
Is this even an Immortal King?
It's more like a barking dog!!!
After a round of angry rants, everyone looked at each other, then prepared to enter.
The cave entrance wasn't large, but one person could jump in vertically without any issues.
However, the raging flames within were intimidating.
Thinking of this, they almost cursed again.
This is so damn infuriating!
Such a terrifying place, and you're telling me that jumping in is the entrance? This is ridiculous!
The most frustrated among them were Ke Deping and his sister.
They suddenly realized...
"Damn it, the second brother is going to die!"
...
"I'll go in first!"
Fire Ghost's voice was cold, and he was about to be the first to enter.
After all, entering first would give him the upper hand.
However, at this moment, Qin Yu 'cheerfully' said, "That's great."
"Please go ahead, Senior Fire."
Fire Ghost was surprised but soon frowned.
Something's wrong!
The three from Qin Royal Manor were hiding so deeply, yet they weren't rushing to be the first to enter. Instead, they were smiling and letting him go first. This... there might be a problem. Was this a trick to fool him? Or did they discover something? If it's the former, he could ignore it, but if it's the latter...
He pondered, feeling something was amiss.
Logically, it was possible that Qin Yu was intentionally misleading him.
But after experiencing Yuan Yang Immortal King's deviousness, he wasn't willing to take the risk.
Yuan Yang Immortal King was too devious, too devious. He could easily take one's life without a second thought. Moreover, the intimidating flames within the entrance and the rapid melting of their high-grade Dao armaments suggested that this so-called entrance might be a trap. Jumping in could result in being burned to ashes!
This is like gambling with his life!
Who would dare to take such a risk with Yuan Yang Immortal King?
I certainly wouldn't!
With this thought, Fire Ghost took a step forward but then abruptly withdrew his foot. Clearing his throat, he said, "Respecting the elderly and loving the young, I'm neither the oldest nor the youngest here."
"The young friend from Qin Royal Manor, you go first."
His actions caused the others to retreat as well.
No one wanted to be the first to enter.
Lin Fan and the others were also hesitant, fearing Fire Ghost might do something rash.
If they were thrown in directly, wouldn't that be dangerous?
For a moment, they stood in a stalemate again.
Everyone's hearts cursed Yuan Yang Immortal King and his ancestors.
What a devious man!
Now, who was willing to take this risk?
Seeing their fear, Qin Yu couldn't help but smile inwardly. "Since no one is willing, then we, Qin Royal Manor, will take the lead."
"Wait!"
Fire Ghost's brows furrowed as he hesitated.
He suspected that Qin Yu was up to something!
"Oh? Alright."
"After you."
Qin Yu gestured and stepped back politely.
Fire Ghost: "..."
He was stunned, feeling suspicious, his gaze shifting between Qin Yu and the cave entrance. Finally, his brows furrowed.
"You go first!"
He still believed that he should hold back.
Yuan Yang Immortal King was too devious, and with his advantage, he shouldn't take the risk.
Even if they went in first and obtained the treasures, he was confident in his ability to take them down and reclaim the treasures.
"Then, you go ahead."
"We, the members of the Qin Royal Manor, will enter first and scout the way for everyone."
As Wang Teng spoke, he rubbed his hands together, his eyes darting warily towards the group.
Under the watchful and tense gazes of the crowd, Qin Yu was the first to leap into the cave entrance, followed closely by Chi Lian.
Wang Teng whistled, a slight smile on his lips, and only then did he dissipate the artificial sun, becoming the third to jump in.
The crowd immediately gathered around to observe, but to their surprise, the three figures had already vanished.
Fire Ghost, without hesitation, leaped into the cave.
Next was Blue Blood Daoist, followed by the others...
In an instant, their vision blurred, and they felt a sense of spinning and disorientation.
When their perception returned, they found themselves in a massive underground space.
All around them, lava flowed.
But this was no ordinary lava; its source was unknown, and its temperature was high enough to incinerate even an Eighth Realm Great Power.
Everyone's scalp went numb at the sight.
In the distance, dark portals stood tall, their number matching the people present.
Before they could deliberate, Yuan Yang Immortal King's voice echoed again.
"Too slow, you're all too slow."
"If I had hesitated and been as timid as you are now, I would have missed out on the hot shit."
"Hmm..."
"Yuan Yang Immortal King, you..."
"This trial is a test of your cursing skills~"
"Whoever curses the most will pass~"
The crowd: "????"
Damn!
Are you even human? Just as they were about to curse out loud, Yuan Yang Immortal King burst into laughter, "Hahaha, I'm just joking, isn't it funny?"
You're the funny one! Everyone wanted to curse, questioning if this was even remotely amusing. For the first time, they doubted...
Was this so-called Yuan Yang Immortal King truly an Immortal King in his previous life?
Such a twisted sense of humor...
He's almost like a beggar!
Who the hell plays like this?
They now had a deeper understanding of Yuan Yang Immortal King's eccentricities, and all of them couldn't help but curse him in their minds.
"Hahaha~"
"I guessed it, you're definitely cursing me in your hearts."
But Yuan Yang Immortal King spoke again, "However, I'm a very petty person. If you curse me, I won't be happy."
"So, I've already made the necessary preparations."
"Go now, each of you will have a corresponding dark portal."
"For those who have cursed me, the consequences, hehehe..."
"As for those who haven't, you can enter through these portals and retrieve the most precious treasures I've left in my Immortal Mansion."
"Of course, if you've cursed me and don't want to die, then immediately kneel down, kowtow three ten thousand times respectfully, and say 'I was wrong' three ten thousand times. Only then will I spare your lives."
"Let's begin."
The crowd: "???!!!"
Damn it...
You're constantly pushing the boundaries of our understanding with your twisted games! Among those present, except for Qin Yu and Wang Teng, everyone else had lived for thousands, even tens of thousands of years, and their experiences were as numerous as cow's hair. Even in similar treasure-hunting adventures in secret realms, they had ample experience.
But...
Who the hell has ever encountered such a twisted game?
The level of deception was almost unimaginable.
The most crucial part was that even cursing him in their minds could lead to death?
You're a real bastard!
They couldn't help but suspect that he was setting them up for failure.
"Hmph!"
Fire Ghost's lips twitched, "Why shouldn't I go first?"
"Of course, I'm just..."
"Waiting for you to scout the way for me~!"
"Not good!"
A Great Power standing beside Wen Ren Rici, reacted, but it was too late. Fire Ghost was prepared, and with a single strike, he sent the Great Power flying, ultimately forcing him into one of the dark portals.
The portal glowed with a bright red light.
"You cursed me in your heart, and it wasn't very pleasant."
"Ah~~~~~!"
A piercing scream of agony echoed from within the portal, causing everyone's faces to pale.
"What?"
Damn it, are you for real?
They silently cursed, but at the same time, their brows furrowed, and they felt a sense of urgency.
How...
What should we do now?
"Hmph!"
Blue Blood Daoist, however, let out a cold laugh and strode forward.
Everyone else had cursed quite harshly, but the person he hated the most was Qin Yu's trio, and he had been cursing them in his heart the entire time, causing him to neglect Yuan Yang Immortal King.
At this moment, he remained remarkably calm.
Qin Yu, too, approached one of the portals.
After all, they had a strategy and were aware of Yuan Yang Immortal King's deceptive nature, so they were prepared.
But...
Yuan Yang Immortal King's level of deception far surpassed that of Ni Yang in the novel Ten Thousand Celestial Transformations by an unknown factor!
