Ta Tianqing
Chapter 173 Lin Chen, He Even Schemed Against Himself! (Thanks to Glory's Time for the Reward)
Huang·Longyi had stopped screaming...
She knew she was going to die.
That bastard Delgas!
He actually abandoned his own soul and ran.
In the next moment, Huang·Longyi was directly devoured.
"Haha... what a delicious soul!"
Lin Chen's demonic shadow laughed wildly.
This sudden change also caused everyone above the void to stop.
Everyone divided into two opposing camps.
Then, they moved away...
At this time, absolutely no one dared to provoke Lin Chen.
They wouldn't even get close!
"Little Brother!"
A'Niu was anxious and wanted to get closer to see, but Sun Lingming stopped him. He said in a muffled voice, "Little Brother has spawned a demon. Are you going to deliver food to his inner demon by running over there?"
Inner demon!
A'Niu was silent.
He knew about inner demons.
In fact, everyone understood it.
Constantly devouring the souls of others to become stronger would inherently cause huge negative effects.
If the quantity could be controlled, that would be fine.
For example, the three disciples of the Theory Dao Pavilion, A'Niu, Sun Lingming, and Ye Liuli, rarely devoured souls, so they didn't spawn inner demons... and it wasn't just them. Not everyone was like Lin Chen, devouring souls whenever they saw them.
This was why Lin Chen's cultivation was faster than everyone else's.
And the benefit of doing so was that Lin Chen could challenge anything after only three months of cultivation!
But...
The price was not small.
Now, the inner demon had appeared.
It was another Lin Chen!
One filled with killing intent, violence, and an abundance of evil energy.
It wasn't just simple demonization!
An inner demon could replicate all the abilities of the original body.
Moreover, the inner demon hadn't completely separated from the main body yet.
At this time, Lin Chen was twice as powerful!
Even Zhan Huang (Battle Emperor) Delgas had fled.
A'Niu, rushing up at this time, probably wouldn't get any benefits!
But now, Huang·Longyi had fallen.
Zhan Huang Delgas had lost all his vigor and had even disappeared without a trace.
He was very afraid that Lin Chen's inner demon would find him.
Or even hunt him down...
After all, Lin Chen's inner demon had seen him.
No one dared to approach Lin Chen in the void...
The Angel Clan had begun to consider retreating!
After all, based solely on combat power, the three-nation alliance of the Human Clan, Elf Clan, and Fairy Clan was now no weaker than the Angel Clan, which only had three Huang (Emperors) left. The high-end combat power could only tie with the three masters of the Theory Dao Pavilion.
A'Niu, Sun Lingming, and Ye Liuli!
A ceasefire was the only option at this point.
The various clans retreated.
On the side of the White Angel Clan, Huang·Longyi was dead.
However, the four Kings were still there.
They ordered everyone to retreat.
However, they also entered the void, stood in the Angel Clan's camp, and planned to watch Lin Chen's ending from afar...
Would he be devoured by the inner demon, or would Lin Chen successfully separate the inner demon?
In the Human Clan's camp, Liu Mengyao also came to the void.
She rode a Qinglong (Azure Dragon).
Beside her were Jian Nishang and Dao Linlang.
"Sword Master!"
"Blade Master..."
"Lin Chen!"
Liu Mengyao shouted.
But there was no response.
Before long, many more experts came to the void.
The various clans had retreated.
The war had subsided slightly.
Among the White Angel Clan, the female war goddess Alalei also came into the void.
But she only watched that void from afar...
Dao Si Lin?
No!
Lin Chen!
"You liar, you even lied to me, saying you were a White Angel?"
Alalei looked at the void.
She could even sense Huang·Longyi's presence.
Huang (Emperor)...
Perhaps by luck, a part of Huang·Longyi's body actually floated to where she was.
And it was the hand.
A space ring was very conspicuous.
"The Huang's relic!"
Alalei quickly put away the ring. Her thoughts moved...
Now, the Huang was dead!
The space ring had no owner.
Then wouldn't that mean...
Alalei opened the ring.
Her soul perception entered the ring, and she was extremely shocked after just one glance!
"So, the secret of the Huang's growth is in the Imperial Palace... then if I go there now..." Alalei's eyes lit up.
In the next moment, she retreated directly.
However, before leaving, she glanced again at Lin Chen above the void, and the monstrous demonic shadow...
"I hope you have good luck!"
Alalei left.
Beside Liu Mengyao, Ji Wei and Mo Yi had also arrived.
The Elf Queen hurriedly followed, and pulled Mo Yi, saying, "You can't go over there now. If you go, you will be devoured by Lin Chen's inner demon! We can only wait now, wait until Lin Chen's spiritual consciousness awakens, and then... completely separate the inner demon."
"What if Lin Chen doesn't wake up?"
Mo Yi asked.
"No, Lin Chen is so strong, a person with such a firm will, he definitely won't be blinded by the demonic obstacles set by the inner demon... He will definitely wake up and then actively strip away the inner demon!" The Elf Queen said with certainty.
The key was that she was afraid her daughter would do something stupid if she didn't say that!
In the void, the demonic shadow was laughing loudly: "Lin Chen, continue to indulge! I know that what you really want is to return to that Blue Star that hasn't changed, and then live the life of an ordinary person, right? Moreover, your parents haven't died, and the family of three is happy and harmonious... Lin Chen, don't you like this kind of life? Why not stay there forever? Returning to reality, you still have to face those fights, and cope with the oppression and calculations of those gods... Haha, sleep, Lin Chen! Everything is in the dream I created for you."
This time, everyone understood where Lin Chen's heart was at this time...
It turned out that the inner demon had actually created a dream for Lin Chen!
A... unreal dream.
In the dream, it was the Blue Star where Lin Chen used to live.
There, there was prosperous technology, ordinary people everywhere, sentient beings, and the smell of everyday life.
There were even parents who loved him!
Could Lin Chen wake up?
Everyone felt it was a bit uncertain.
If Lin Chen couldn't wake up... and was forever trapped in the dream woven by the inner demon, and the inner demon completely occupied Lin Chen's body, then Lin Chen would never wake up again.
"Fairy Wei!"
The Elf Queen shouted suddenly.
She wasn't paying attention, and Ji Wei rushed out.
"Ji Wei!" Seeing this, Yang Liuxin hurriedly chased after her.
However, Ji Wei had already shouted towards Lin Chen's inner demon in the sky: "Is there me in the world you created for him?"
Seeing Ji Wei, the inner demon was also stunned.
Then, the inner demon shouted: "Ji Wei."
This scene shocked everyone.
The inner demon didn't swallow Ji Wei in one bite?
"I also want to ask, is there me in the dream you created for him?"
Mo Yi also rushed to Ji Wei's side and asked.
The inner demon was a little flustered: "Mo Yi, you also..."
"His dream must have me, right?"
Liu Mengyao also came to the void.
She even stood directly beside Lin Chen's main body, then surrounded by holy light, Liu Mengyao hugged Lin Chen, kissed him on the cheek, and then whispered in his ear: "Lin Chen..."
"Lin Chen!"
"Lin Chen!"
Mo Yi and Ji Wei also called out together.
"You... you are courting death!"
The demonic shadow roared in the void.
"Danger!"
Yang Liuxin exclaimed.
The Dark Night Queen had even disappeared into the darkness.
A magic blade covered in black flames hovered in the sky above, as if it was about to be slashed down at any moment!
Slashed towards the three women beside Lin Chen.
"Stop!" Yang Liuxin and the others shouted.
But it was too late.
Everyone could only shout: "Run!"
However, none of the three women moved.
They all looked at the void together.
Boom!
The magic blade slashed down.
"Without Lin Chen, my existence in this world would be meaningless."
Liu Mengyao had a smile on her face.
At that moment, Ji Wei and Mo Yi also smiled.
Then, the three closed their eyes together.
Many people didn't dare to watch this scene.
But...
Lin Chen's main body opened his eyes at this time.
In the next moment, looking at the magic blade slashing down from the sky, Lin Chen shouted, his figure soared, and he actually grabbed the magic blade with one hand.
Swish!
Blood dripped.
"Lin Chen, you... you actually woke up?"
The demonic shadow spoke.
Then, everyone discovered that the demonic shadow's hand was also dripping with blood.
He seemed a little flustered, and even asked in disbelief, "Impossible, how could you wake up so quickly?"
"Because, the dream you gave me is indeed very beautiful, but it is ultimately an illusion!"
Lin Chen said word by word, he looked at his body connected to the demonic shadow, and then smiled: "My parents have been dead for so many years, I have already accepted this fact. But... I can't accept that there are no parents in the dream you arranged for me!"
After Lin Chen finished speaking, he looked down.
Those three women...
They were really crazy!
They actually wanted to use their lives to wake him up!
Was he, Lin Chen, that weak?
Lin Chen had woken up!
He held the demonic shadow's magic blade.
In the next moment, the black flame magic blade disappeared.
"You slash me, it's the same as slashing yourself?" Lin Chen discovered the crux of the matter.
The previous slash made him bleed.
Then, the demonic shadow's palm was also bleeding.
In the next moment, Lin Chen grabbed the connection between himself and the demonic shadow, and then pulled hard.
The demonic shadow's figure fell.
Then, the two Lin Chens met.
One good, one evil.
One was the main body, and the other was the inner demon.
"Am I right in thinking that as long as I slash this thing, we'll be separated?"
Lin Chen asked, grabbing the point of connection.
"That's right!" The demonic shadow responded, he grinned: "Lin Chen, now that you've woken up, why don't we separate! After we separate, we don't have to share a body. If I get hurt, you won't bleed either, how great would that be?"
"Is that so?"
Lin Chen tilted his head, seeming not to trust the demonic shadow's words.
"I am you, how could I lie to you?" The demonic shadow was anxious.
At this time, Huang·Caijue said loudly: "The inner demon must be killed now. If you don't sever the connection between him and you, how will you kill him? Lin Chen, what are you hesitating about? If an inner demon is allowed to live, it will harm all living beings! You may not know, but in ancient times, almost all the demonic obstacles were inner demons born from the ancient gods! Some demonic obstacles even turned around and eventually devoured their original masters!"
"I see!"
Lin Chen nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Yes, that's right, quickly... cut off the connection between us!"
The demonic shadow Lin Chen was full of evil energy, he even raised the magic blade again and said urgently, "If you don't cut it, I will!"
Boom!
The magic blade slashed down again.
But...
Lin Chen reached out again.
Swish!
Lin Chen's hand bled again.
"Ah!"
The demonic shadow also felt pain, and couldn't help but curse: "Are you sick? Are you crazy?"
He was really speechless.
In this day and age, there are still people who like to hurt themselves?
"Tsk tsk."
Lin Chen revealed a smile: "Look, you don't understand me at all, yet you dare to claim to be my inner demon... In fact, do you really think you inherited all my abilities?"
"Lin Chen, what do you mean?" The demonic shadow asked.
"Haven't you noticed that you can only use the magic blade?"
Lin Chen took out the Shenmo·Taigu Tianqing (God Demon·Ancient Sky Halberd)!
Boom!
In the next moment, the Taigu Tianqing transformed into the form of a sword.
"Can you use a sword?" Lin Chen asked.
"I..."
The demonic shadow was dumbfounded.
He was confused: "Why can't I?"
"In fact, you are just a part of the inner demon that was born after I learned the Devil Blade... Do you really think you can represent me?"
Lin Chen smiled.
In fact, when he was hidden in the secret realm, from the moment he learned the Devil Blade Slaying God, and his heart beat abnormally twice, Lin Chen had already been guarding against the inner demon.
The Devil Blade can catalyze inner demons!
Otherwise, why would it be called the Devil Blade?
But...
Is evil necessarily bad?
Then why can the Ancient Devil Blade Master crush the main body of the Ancient Sword Saint?
Moreover, can demons necessarily represent all of oneself?
Can an inner demon that is born necessarily inherit all of one's abilities?
What if...
It was an inner demon that I deliberately let out?
So, all of this was Lin Chen's design, he even calculated himself first, so that his demonic thoughts thought that his inner demon was mature, able to come out and make waves, and even suppress Lin Chen!
"Afraid you don't know, the Devil Blade of the Ancient Devil Blade Master not only slays divine thoughts, but also catalyzes demonic thoughts... You are just a product that I personally catalyzed. I was thinking, since you are about to appear anyway, making me have two heartbeats, then why don't I let you out earlier? You in this state are simply not strong enough, and not enough to pry into all my secrets."
Lin Chen grinned: "Moreover, I don't plan to separate from you."
"Lin Chen, you... you even calculate yourself!" The demonic shadow panicked.
He really just realized that he... was actually calculated by Lin Chen.
Catalyzed with a devil blade...
In other words, his inner demon was premature?
And there were still many defects.
This Lin Chen was really too terrifying!
He even calculated himself, and was really ruthless, knowing that he would be troubled by the inner demon, so he would catalyze it himself... At this time, the demonic shadow Lin Chen seemed to have thought of something, and he asked in horror: "Lin Chen, what do you mean when you say you don't want to separate from me?"
"The literal meaning!"
Lin Chen grinned and said: "Anyway, you don't dare to kill me, but... I dare to swallow you!"
What?
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Lin Chen... was actually going to swallow his own inner demon?
This was too ruthless!
