Ta Tianqing
Chapter 383 Forcing Back the Demon Emperor Was Lin Chen; Blackmailing the Xing God
Where was there a 40% chance?
With the strength that Moro was currently displaying, even if Taotie unleashed its power, it probably wouldn't have a 40% chance of defeating the Demon Emperor.
The only two Rank 8 existences in the universe were truly formidable!
Therefore, the expression on the Punishment God's face was extremely unsightly.
He was no match at all!
The current situation was...
The Halo of Wisdom enveloped everyone.
Therefore, the Punishment God's mind was also working rapidly.
It seemed somewhat impossible to kill Moro.
It seemed that neither Zeus nor Moro had ever truly attacked before!
It was all fake!
The strength of these two powerhouses was simply beyond imagination.
He couldn't win!
But what should he do?
Did he have to continue fighting?
"Lin Chen!"
The Punishment God, with his newly regrown body, shouted at Lin Chen, "I misjudged Moro's strength!"
The meaning was self-evident.
Was he planning to retreat?
Lin Chen turned his head and looked at the Punishment God. "So, you're going to retreat now? Wait, Taotie hasn't unleashed its power yet!"
Lin Chen sneered inwardly.
Indeed...
This Punishment God was indeed an old schemer.
Perhaps the only time in his life he was brave was during the great battle with Di Jie?
Was that what they called Xingtian wielding his axe and shield, his fierce determination forever constant?
What kind of experience had turned such a brave fellow into an old schemer?
Lin Chen didn't care.
The current situation was...he had to help Taotie escape first.
He came to the bottom of the terrifying and enormous, densely packed web woven from tentacles, and then directly began to gnaw and devour.
One tentacle after another was crushed and purified into energy by Lin Chen's devouring power.
Then, Lin Chen absorbed it all.
"Moro, thank you for sending the wills of the human ancestors, haha..."
Lin Chen devoured while laughing wildly.
"Impossible, I can't even fuse with the wills of these old guys, how can you do it?"
The Demon Emperor was shocked...
Because he also discovered that the aura of the Human Emperor on Lin Chen's body was becoming more and more intense.
After all, he had once served as the Great Emperor of the Human Race.
He had even, with supreme power, impersonated a Human Emperor...the Xia Emperor!
But despite being the leader of the Human Race twice, he had never obtained the wills of these ancient Human Race ancestors.
The Demon Emperor knew very well...
This was because those old things didn't approve of him even after death!
But what about Lin Chen?
The answer was obvious.
They all acknowledged Lin Chen as the Human Emperor.
They all supported Lin Chen as the leader of the Human Race!
Therefore...
Their wills were willing to follow Lin Chen!
"Old things, am I, Di Jie, so detestable to you?"
The Demon Emperor roared.
The next moment, he retracted all the tentacles...
Why?
Because he cherished his strength.
Because he was afraid of Lin Chen becoming stronger!
Each time Lin Chen devoured a tentacle, it was a complete piece of the power of the Human Race ancestors' wills.
This mysterious power could not only enhance the Human Race's fortune, but also strengthen Lin Chen, the Human Emperor himself...
At this moment, from Moro's perspective, Lin Chen was surrounded by a faint halo.
"The aura of the Emperor!"
Moro angrily roared, "Why? The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and the emperors and kings of the various tribes, is there not one of you willing to acknowledge my Dao?"
Seeing that Moro seemed to be driven mad by Lin Chen's actions, the Punishment God immediately understood. He said loudly, "Haha, good! Di Jie, do you see that? This is the consequence of doing evil! In this universe, those who gain the Dao receive more help, while those who lose the Dao receive little help. Therefore, Di Jie, you have caused both gods and men to be indignant, and the result is that the ancient Great Emperors and ancestors of the Human Race all look down on you!"
"Even if you can forcibly fuse the corpses and blood of those ancestors, you are still a brutal person, and the ancestors will never acknowledge your identity. And now, you are even more of a monster!"
Lin Chen naturally knew that the Punishment God's words were meant to attack Moro's state of mind, so Lin Chen began to chase after Moro's tentacles to devour them, while using trash talk to 'output' to Moro, trying to further break Moro's mentality.
He had learned this trick when he fought against the Sun God Temple.
Now he was putting it to good use.
"Haha..."
The Punishment God was overjoyed.
What was the situation now?
It was as if the entire battlefield's situation had instantly reversed...
Lin Chen, the Punishment God, and Taotie were no longer suppressed by Moro.
Because now, Moro didn't dare to use his tentacles.
He didn't want to continue to send the Human Emperor's will to Lin Chen, making Lin Chen stronger and stronger.
So what should he do?
If he couldn't use his tentacles, then Moro would have fewer methods.
However, those tentacles could be retracted, but they couldn't be completely covered up!
Unless Moro transformed into a human...
But it was still the same. Every bite of flesh that Lin Chen took was a wisp of the Emperor's aura, the will of the Human Race ancestors.
Because he had fused the bodies of those Human Race ancestors with himself.
The more Lin Chen ate, the stronger he became!
Therefore...
"The Demon Slayer, the Human Emperor Lin Chen is here!"
At this moment, Moro once again remembered this prophecy on the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Mirror...
He seemed to understand everything!
Then Moro felt that he had been schemed against.
Or rather, it wasn't right...
Was he, who had schemed against others his entire life, ultimately doing all this for someone else?
"No, I don't want to!"
Moro was completely broken!
The next moment, looking at Lin Chen and the Punishment God chasing after him, the Demon Emperor actually...
Boom!
Ran away!
The Demon Emperor was running away, could you believe it?
He was a Rank 8 powerhouse, one of the best in the universe, even able to compete with Zeus, but...
Now the Demon Emperor didn't dare to face Lin Chen!
He was running away.
He even shouted at Taotie while running, "From now on, I will never suppress you again. Now I release you to freedom. Let's end our thousand-year grudge here, how about it?"
"Roar!"
Taotie's voice seemed to be a response to Moro.
The next moment, Taotie's eyes fiercely looked towards Lin Chen and the Punishment God.
This made the Punishment God's scalp tingle...
Under the Halo of Wisdom, the Punishment God immediately warned vigilantly, "Lin Chen, be careful!"
Lin Chen nodded.
It seemed that Taotie was truly ferocious by nature!
With Moro's words, allowing it to gain freedom, it immediately wavered.
But now, Taotie hadn't completely wavered.
However, the Demon Emperor had already escaped.
He fled far towards the central battlefield.
As for the entire Demon Race...
Heh!
Who cared about that now?
He was the Demon Emperor.
What he thought about was always only himself!
No one else existed!
Not even the race he came from.
He didn't want any of it!
When a Rank 8 powerhouse wanted to run, you could only watch helplessly.
However, Lin Chen still chased all the way to the Southern God-Demon Battlefield!
He only stopped when he could no longer see even the Demon Emperor's trail.
What relieved Lin Chen was that the Demon Emperor didn't turn around to attack the Human Race.
Although the Demon Emperor had escaped.
But now...
Lin Chen felt relieved instead!
Why?
Because...
The Demon Emperor was afraid of him!
This also meant that as long as Lin Chen was still in the Human Race, the Demon Emperor wouldn't dare to invade.
Of course, Lin Chen also had to guard against the Demon Emperor's movements.
He was afraid that he would directly cross the outer realm and go to Blue Star to attack Blue Star.
Blue Star now had 踏天青 (Ta Tianqing) protecting it. Although it wasn't the Demon Emperor's opponent, it could at least hold on for a moment...
That was enough.
As long as it could hold on until Lin Chen returned.
At that time, the Demon Emperor would probably run away again when he saw Lin Chen.
Because Lin Chen could actually gain the approval of the Human Race ancestors, obtain their wills, and gain the aura of the Emperor!
And this aura of the Emperor...
Was actually on the Demon Emperor's body!
Now, his and Lin Chen's identities had changed.
Even though the Demon Emperor was stronger.
Incredibly strong.
Stronger than Lin Chen.
But Lin Chen had become the hunter!
And the Demon Emperor had become the prey...
Lin Chen's prey!
Because the Demon Emperor's flesh and blood could nourish Lin Chen, making Lin Chen even more powerful.
Then the Demon Emperor would definitely avoid fighting Lin Chen.
But next, there was still a big problem...
In order to deal with the Demon Emperor, Taotie had been completely released.
What was the situation now?
The inhuman Taotie was chasing the Punishment God everywhere, trying to bite him.
"Lin Chen!"
The Punishment God shouted at Lin Chen in the void, "What do we do with this thing now? Moro suddenly doesn't care about it anymore! Damn it, I should have thought, he's Moro, he's Di Jie, he's definitely capable of making such a decision, completely abandoning the entire Demon Race!"
That's right.
With Moro's escape, all the Demon Race in the vicinity of Fengdu City must have clearly seen his true colors.
No more Demon Race would follow him.
However, this wasn't all the Demon Race.
In the central God-Demon battlefield, as well as the western and northern God-Demon battlefields, there were still many Demon Race forces.
After Moro retreated to the central God-Demon battlefield, he could still get the support of the Hunshi Demon Lord and the others.
It wasn't impossible for him to make a comeback in the future!
So, Moro wasn't stupid.
There was no need for him to fight to the death.
A brave man cuts off his wrist to survive.
And what about Lin Chen?
At this time, he looked at the void, but remained indifferent.
"Lin Chen, aren't you coming to help?"
The Punishment God shouted!
The situation now was that Taotie had bitten off one of his arms and wouldn't let go.
The Punishment God was using this arm to hold on.
Lin Chen finally spoke, but he didn't make any movements. He just said, "Punishment God, didn't you advocate for releasing Taotie? You must have ways to deal with this big guy, right?"
"Lin Chen, you...you are despicable and shameless!"
Hearing this, the Punishment God immediately cursed, "When did I say that I have a way to deal with this big guy? Come and help! Otherwise, we might as well die together!"
"Haha, but now its target is you!"
Lin Chen said loudly, "Perhaps, you can try running back to the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and then see if Taotie will chase you back to the Heavenly Dao Alliance and devour your entire Heavenly Dao Alliance!"
The Punishment God was dumbfounded.
This was a situation he had never expected...
The dignified Demon Emperor was actually forced to flee by Lin Chen.
And then...
Taotie actually took him as its target!
And Lin Chen saw through all of this.
So now...
What to do?
The Punishment God lowered his head.
He looked at Lin Chen.
From Lin Chen's eyes, the Punishment God seemed to understand Lin Chen's intention.
"How many Life Crystals do you want?"
The Punishment God helplessly opened his mouth, asking Lin Chen.
Now, the only thing on him that could make Lin Chen take action was the Life Crystals.
"How many there are, I want them all!"
Lin Chen grinned.
"Lin Chen, are you trying to kill me?" The Punishment God roared, "Believe it or not, even if I die, I won't give them to you!"
"Okay, then don't give them to me."
Lin Chen shrugged, indicating that he didn't care. "Don't give them to me, I wouldn't even want them! This is Taotie, how dangerous! Only the Demon Emperor has many ways to suppress it, but he can only suppress it. The Demon Emperor can't subdue it. Of course, from my personal point of view, I also support you to subdue Taotie...Punishment God, keep it up, I'm rooting for you!"
At this moment, the Punishment God almost vomited blood!
Roar!
Taotie finally completely devoured the Punishment God's arm, and then roared and opened its mouth again to bite at the Punishment God.
The Punishment God could only use his other arm to block...which was equivalent to giving it to Taotie to eat, but only giving Taotie a little bit, because it would take at least tens of seconds for the Punishment God's other arm to regrow.
He was delaying time for himself!
"Lin Chen, how about adding ten legs?"
The Punishment God was speechless...
He felt that in front of Lin Chen, he was just a Life Crystal producing machine, forced to continuously provide Lin Chen with Life Crystals. Fortunately, the power of life was difficult to comprehend, otherwise, so many Life Crystals would be enough for Lin Chen to comprehend this mysterious power of the universe.
"Your essence blood, a hundred legs would probably be enough, right?"
Lin Chen grinned.
"Then we'll die together! Now, I'll take Taotie to your Human Race!"
The Punishment God was helpless.
He could only use this to warn Lin Chen.
However, Lin Chen's face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, "Are you using the entire Human Race to threaten me?"
In order to survive, the Punishment God was helpless and could only say with a dark face, "Yes!"
"Good!"
Lin Chen's voice was extremely cold, "Punishment God, ten legs, plus the four legs I gave you when I saved you, a total of fourteen, you give them to me now, and I will help you deal with Taotie. But...from now on, I, Lin Chen, will definitely never rest until I destroy you and the Heavenly Dao Alliance! No one can use my Human Race to threaten me!"
Boom!
Lin Chen was furious.
The sky and earth changed color.
Lightning and thunder appeared together in the sky.
Illuminating the night!
"I don't care about what happens in the future, but now you, Lin Chen, must take action, and we will suppress Taotie together!"
The Punishment God obviously didn't think so much.
That's right...
For a person who seeks to survive at all costs, as long as he can survive now, he doesn't care about anything in the future!
Drink today's wine today.
Worry about tomorrow's problems tomorrow.
As for Lin Chen's threat...why care so much?
"Good!"
Lin Chen agreed.
But at this time, Lin Chen sat down cross-legged.
In the darkness, Lin Chen summoned the Three Thousand Ghost Emperor Army.
"Master's younger brother..."
"Greetings, Master!"
Yang Yourong and Ying Xiyue were still the leaders of these Ghost Emperors.
Lin Chen looked at them and said, "Now, I will...revive your lives!"
Four thousand words.
Two thousand words short, I estimate I can write them by a little after eleven o'clock.
Also, regarding the update, I'm adding the last point...
It's not that I don't want to update on time, but because the time I spent updating before already took up all my time, and I don't have a backlog, so I can't update on time!
Everyone can flip back to the front. I said it, I'm pretty straightforward. I won't be like those authors who update six thousand words a day and save the rest.
I update as soon as I finish writing.
So, if I have to ask for leave, please don't scold me!
As a result, everyone is using this to scold me!
In the previous chapters, I did say that, and some people should still remember it, right?
