Chapter 422 Zeus's Overt Scheme

Lin Chen enjoyed watching Zeus's frustrated, yet helpless expression.

Zeus really wanted to kill Lin Chen.

But the current Lin Chen was no longer the same as before.

There was a huge gap between the eighth and seventh ranks.

Although the gap between eighth ranks was also significant, it was too difficult to kill the opponent.

What's more, there was still Taotie...

This guy, like the Chaos Beast, seemed to be somewhat afraid of the current Lin Chen.

No, Taotie had been afraid of Lin Chen for a long time.

So Taotie's goal had always been very firm...

It was Zeus!

In fact, Zeus also knew...

It was because he didn't have the power of devouring!

Taotie, who had cultivated the power of devouring to the extreme and had accumulated flesh and blood for countless years, now had a body that was immune to most elemental magic damage.

It was practically an insulator.

To make it feel pain, it had to be a blow that landed squarely on the flesh!

Clearly, Lin Chen was better at that than Zeus!

The key was that Lin Chen controlled the power of devouring!

The dragon-slaying youth...

Had grown up!

Moreover, he had not become an evil dragon.

Instead, he had remained true to his original aspiration.

He had always persisted in fighting against the Temple.

"Zeus, I know you must still have a trump card in your hand, and you haven't taken it out, right? You and the Demon Emperor are like this. The Demon Emperor hasn't revealed his true trump card either... You are both too fond of scheming."

Lin Chen sneered, "So now, I'll give you a third choice... Either you reveal your trump card now and see if you can kill me?"

What a joke?

Zeus frowned, and the next moment he shouted, "Lin Chen, stop talking nonsense! What trump card do I have? I've even shown you my divine spark. The Demon Emperor is the one with a real trump card! And his trump card is very powerful. Are you really unwilling to cooperate with me?"

The sensitive topic of revealing trump cards...

Only Lin Chen dared to bring it up.

Why?

Because Lin Chen had no scruples!

His trump cards had actually all been revealed before.

The only thing he was hiding was the power of laws, but that was used to formulate various rules between the universe and the earth, and its effect in a particular battle would not be very obvious.

And then there was...

The complete Human Sovereign Dao.

In the future, Lin Chen would be able to borrow other people's soul seas.

Now it was different.

What Lin Chen could borrow was the power of the entire human race!

This was Lin Chen's biggest trump card.

But this trump card could not be used easily.

All humans had to willingly lend their strength to Lin Chen... This was what was meant by everyone being of one mind.

It also proved the ancient saying of the human race: The virtuous one receives much help.

Lin Chen wanted to achieve this, so his reason for borrowing power had to be for the sake of the entire human race.

These were all the necessary preconditions for Lin Chen to borrow power.

Lin Chen was not afraid of everyone revealing their trump cards together.

After all, he also wanted to see what Zeus's and the Demon Emperor's trump cards were.

The kind of trump cards that were kept at the bottom of the box!

But what about it?

Clearly, Zeus was too sensitive about the topic of trump cards.

So sensitive that he would rather choose to let the Chaos Beast chase down the main gods of the Temple.

Better to sacrifice a friend than oneself...

It seemed that Zeus also had this mentality!

He knew that once his trump card was revealed, even if he could really kill Lin Chen, there would still be the Demon Emperor... How could Zeus not understand the principle of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind?

What's more, the current Lin Chen was not so easy to kill.

So Zeus was absolutely unwilling to be the first to reveal his trump card.

"So you can only watch helplessly as the Chaos Beast eats up the central God-Devil battlefield that you painstakingly managed?"

Lin Chen grinned and even said loudly, "Have you all seen it, the gods of the Temple! This is your Heavenly Emperor, whom you regard as your father, how selfish and ridiculous! He would rather have you devoured by his inner demons than to save you!"

At this moment, the many gods of the Temple were all silent.

Because...

Many of them were fleeing.

Some were responding with silence.

After all, what Lin Chen said was the truth!

Zeus said loudly, "Don't listen to Lin Chen's nonsense! If I reveal my trump card but cannot kill Lin Chen, and instead am killed by Lin Chen and the Demon Emperor, then you will have no way to survive! Now, everyone, escape quickly, escape to the Void Heaven Temple! Lin Chen, fine, I'll give you this God-Devil battlefield. But you want to destroy the divinity of the Void Heaven Temple... Don't even think about it!"

Zeus had seen through it.

The reason why Lin Chen had not taken action, allowing the Chaos Beast to wreak havoc on the central God-Devil battlefield, and had been talking so much nonsense, was because...

Lin Chen's current goal was not to kill Zeus.

The same principle applied.

Zeus couldn't kill Lin Chen, and Lin Chen didn't have the confidence to kill Zeus right now.

But Lin Chen would not let go of the opportunity to make Zeus fall from grace!

And to take the opportunity to weaken the entire Void Heaven Temple.

As long as the beliefs of the main gods of the Void Heaven Temple began to waver, and Zeus's position in their minds also wavered, then... the entire Void Heaven Temple would no longer be a monolith!

Lin Chen even hoped to let Zeus taste the bitterness of being betrayed by everyone!

Existences like Zeus and the Demon Emperor should be betrayed by everyone!

Lin Chen's thoughts were really vicious.

But...

Zeus was not without a solution!

At worst, he would cut his losses.

Completely abandon the God-Devil battlefield.

And when the entire God-Devil battlefield belonged to the human race...

Then Taotie and the Chaos Beast would both become Lin Chen's major concerns!

This was called diverting the disaster eastward.

Let Lin Chen deal with these two fierce guys alone.

Zeus could take the opportunity to bring the gods of the Temple back to the Void Heaven Temple to recuperate, and then make plans...

For example, directly attacking the human race's main planet, Blue Star!

Or, find a way to create chaos for the human race again...

Unknowingly.

It seemed that the Void Heaven Temple, led by Zeus, was facing the human race, led by Lin Chen...

Had actually begun to switch from offense to defense!

Zeus, the Heavenly Emperor, was actually thinking of having the gods huddle together?

But Zeus's words made Lin Chen's eyes turn cold.

If that were the case...

Then the Temple would still be a monolith!

And when they retreated, the gods of the Temple would definitely take away everything they could take.

Even if the human race obtained the entire God-Devil battlefield, it would just be an empty shell...

It would even be a burden!

But Lin Chen knew clearly in his heart...

The human race would not give up the central God-Devil battlefield.

That was the ancestral home of the human race's rise!

How could they give it up?

Zeus really had a trick up his sleeve...

This was a conspiracy in broad daylight!
