704 Here Comes a Life-Saving Straw! (1)
Black Devil was shocked.
He stared at the floating jade talisman carefully and muttered, “I think… a friend gave it to me.”
“Friend? Which friend?”
Lin Bei asked curiously.
“Oh, his name is Black Robe. Speaking of which… he was the one who suggested that I join you.”
Black Devil hurriedly explained.
“Black Robe?”
When Lin Bei heard this, he narrowed his eyes slightly and an extremely arrogant figure appeared in his mind.
If he remembered correctly, when he was on the Ocean Blue Planet, he met a guy who claimed to be the incarnation of the Will of Heaven and Earth. That was his name, right?
Thinking of this, Lin Bei looked at the Black Devil again and asked, “Did he say anything else to you when he suggested that you join me?”
“This… it’s nothing. He just asked me to put in a good word for him in front of you usually. He said that he would come and join you after he finished what he was doing. It’s said that… he had committed something previously and offended you, so he has to prepare to pledge his allegiance.”
Black Devil answered truthfully.
“Pledge his allegiance? Interesting.”
When Lin Bei heard this, he could not help but laugh.
He looked at the flickering teleportation jade talisman and pondered for a moment. He muttered, “Could this be the so-called pledge of allegiance? It’s piqued my interest.”
Thinking of this, he asked again, “By the way, what did this Black Robe do in the past?”
“Black Robe used to follow the Lord of Darkness.”
“Lord of Darkness?”
“Oh, it’s an expert like the Lord of Fear. His realm has been stagnant in the Great Dao realm for many years. Over the years, he seems to be planning to break through like the Lord of Fear.”
“I see!”
Lin Bei’s eyes lit up.
Then, he saw the power projection of the dispirited Lord of Fear beside the Gate of Fear and smiled.
He was still worried that he had nowhere to fleece. If Black Robe really sent him something good this time, he did not mind smiling at him. After all, the incident on the Ocean Blue Planet was in the past. Now that Black Robe was willing to turn over a new leaf, he was happy to see it happen.
After all, as the saying went, it was better to resolve enmity and make friends and learn from one’s mistakes.
Then, his gaze landed on the teleportation jade talisman. He closed his eyes and the “Shift” Dao rune appeared and fused into the teleportation jade talisman. Soon, his consciousness locked onto another s.p.a.ce in the teleportation jade talisman and detected the situation there.
“Haha! The heavens are really helping me!”
After detecting the situation over there, Lin Bei couldn’t help but laugh. “Someone really gave me a pillow when I was sleepy! I was just worrying about not having enough cultivation resources, but someone came to give me warmth!”
Just now, he had detected the existence of the power projection of the Lord of Darkness. Wasn’t this clearly giving him resources?
Of course, he had also detected those Dark Imperial Guards, but their strength was not worth mentioning. He did not take it to heart. After all, with his current strength, he could destroy them all with a casual wave of his hand.
“Boss, did you find anything?”
The Shadow of Harmony hurriedly came up and asked.
Seeing how excited Lin Bei was, he could not help but be curious!
“Haha, it’s time to work! A new projection of the power of the Lord of Darkness! Are you happy?”
Lin Bei asked with a smile.
“Is that true?”
As expected, when it heard Lin Bei’s words, the Shadow of Harmony instantly jumped dozens of meters high. It looked excited and shouted, “Happy! I’m so f*cking happy!”
“Boss, when are we going to attack?”
The Shadow of Harmony was restless.
“Isn’t that obvious? Of course we’ll attack immediately! Every second we delay is a waste of resources. Do you understand?”
“Understood, understood! Don’t worry, we’ll kill him in one strike later and end the battle quickly! We’ll ensure that the energy is preserved intact!”
“Hmm… You’re promising!”
Lin Bei nodded in satisfaction. Then, he raised his hand and waved it. The “Shift” Dao rune enveloped him. In the blink of an eye, he and the Shadow of Harmony disappeared.
Around him, only Black Devil was left. He looked at the jade talisman that was still floating in the air in front of him with a dumbfounded expression.
“Then… then I’ll leave?”
…
On the other side, in the s.p.a.ce enveloped by the Heaven Shrouding Secret Technique, the Lord of Darkness was confident of victory. His attacks were swift and fierce. In just a single move, he grabbed Black Robe in his hand.
At this moment, his power clone’s body was huge like a mountain. He looked down at the half-dead Black Robe in his hand and sneered. “Kid, you’re still a little inexperienced. You probably don’t know how to write the word ‘death’! Don’t you know that in front of absolute strength, any scheme can be broken with a wave of your hand?”
“Hmph, the winner is king, and the loser is a bandit. It’s useless to say anything more! If you want to kill, then kill!”
At this moment, Black Robe’s heart was like dead ashes. He, who had been cowardly all his life, suddenly had the ambition for no reason. He spat at the Lord of Darkness. “Pfft, you’re just an old coward who has lived for an unknown number of years. If you really have the ability, why are you hiding in the Heavenly Mysterious Realm like a coward? If you have the guts, go to the Void Battlefield to kill the enemies! I heard that killing enemies from the outer realm in the Void Battlefield can acc.u.mulate the luck of heaven and earth. Don’t you want to rely on luck to attain the Dao? Why not be braver? Idiot!”
“You’re courting death!”
The Lord of Darkness was furious when he heard this and was about to crush the Black Robe into pieces. However, he quickly stopped and narrowed his eyes at the black robe. He sneered and said, “Heh, I was almost tricked by you! If I kill you here and then devour and refine you, even if there’s a secret technique that covers the sky to hide the prying of the world, I’m afraid the Will of Heaven and Earth will notice something amiss. However, your plan has failed. Don’t worry, I’ve waited for countless years. I’m not worried about waiting a little longer. When I return, I’ll set up the Heaven Devouring Array and absorb all the providence and the Will of Heaven and Earth in your body! At that time… I can directly step into the Above the Great Dao realm!”
