Qin Yu narrowed his eyes. âIf King Mystery insists, then I can agree.â
Before King Mystery could reveal the joy of revenge on his face, Qin Yu continued to say in a cold tone, âBut please consider something. If you kill Shadowless Demon, you will become my enemyâ¦after the matter of the ancestral land comes to an end, I shall have you pay the price for it.â
Threatening him? He was a solemn Abyssal True King, one of the great rulers of the Nether Royal Bloodline, yet he was being threatened with such straightforwardness!
How absurd!
King Mystery almost laughed in anger, but he soon forcibly repressed this laughâ¦because Qin Yuâs eyes were earnest, and he could sense a clear existential threat within his gaze.
It was imposing and aggressive, like a cold and sharp blade pointed at him. The chill had already invaded his mind before it touched his skin.
With this sort of feeling King Mystery had no choice but to reconsider whether killing Shadowless Demon was worth it. While Qin Yuâs strength alone might not be much, this fact alone proved he had the qualifications to plot against a True King.
He and that old dragon Ao Fa had fallen into the ancestral land. Even though he hated him to the point of clenching his jaws, he could only patiently endure it. This was an indisputable truth.
After living long enough, one would experience enough things. And after experiencing enough things, one would develop a thick skin.
In normal circumstances, the length of time one survived was proportional to the thickness of their skinâ¦in other words, King Mysteryâs skin was extremely thick.
A True Kingâs dignity could not be provoked, but this also depended on who the target was. If Shadowless Demon was only Shadowless Demon, then killing him was just killing him. It wouldnât be considered anything at all.
But with Qin Yu standing up for him, that was differentâ¦this situation served to emphasize one important point. Whether or not one had a backer was an immense difference!
Cough coughâ¦of course, King Mystery likely never expected that Qin Yu would threaten a True King over someone like Shadowless Demon.
âCoughâ¦I was just joking, little friend Qin Yu doesnât need to take it so seriously.â King Mystery calmly said, all of his previous killing intent gone. âBut since I have come here, I ask little friend to remove this person from my purgatory.â
This was the advantage of being sufficiently thick-skinned. When changing his mind, there was no need for embarrassment or awkwardness, it seemed clear and natural.
Qin Yu shook his head. âShadowless Demon can only temporarily be kept in your purgatory. I cannot explain the exact reason, but I ask King Mystery to rest assured. Once we leave the Nightmare Ancestral Land, I will take him away.â
The refusal was neat and simple. Without even an explanation, it was easily dodged. To act in such a manner when facing a solemn True King, this was the definition of impoliteness.
King Mysteryâs skin was thick enough, but that didnât mean he wasnât concerned about face at all. At this moment his eyes twitched and his complexion darkened.
But the more Qin Yu didnât give him face, the less reckless he was willing to act. To describe it simplyâ¦he was being shameless without regard for his dignity!
His eyes clouded further. After hesitating over it, he said, âGood, I hope that little friend Qin Yu is a man of his word!â
Elder Ao Fa suddenly said, âStop wasting time. Since weâve all come to a decision, letâs begin.â
He licked his lips, his eyes brightening. He was indeed angry that he had been dragged into the Nightmare Ancestral Land and wished that he could tear Qin Yu into pieces.
But now that he directly faced the Shadow of Betrayal, he couldnât repress the excitement surging in his heart.
Even if this was just a shadow, what it represented was a pure part of the abyssâ source!
By killing it and capturing the abyssal source, he would smoothly be able to become the most formidable Abyssal Demon Dragon.
He would even have the qualifications to attack the legendary Dark Holy Dragon boundary, becoming a true part of the abyssâ will.
Old Turtleâs face paled. He screamed, âYou are all insolent! Do you really think my existence is something the likes of you can offend!?â
He lifted a hand. At this moment, the entire Nightmare Ancestral Land darkened. Clouds gushed out and wove together, forming a curtain that blocked the skies.
No thunder erupted. There were only black clouds that surged like a rolling tide. Even though they shook, no sounds were emitted.
But it was exactly this silence that released an even greater oppression. It seemed that everything in range of it would be destroyed!
This was a shadow that could defy the will of the abyss. It was a shadow that struggled to survive in a closed off environment, which had managed to split off smaller shadows that controlled the entire Nightmare Clan until this dayâ¦of course it couldnât be regarded as an ordinary shadow.
In the past, it was said that if fear of death was divided into ranks, Old Turtle would be at the top.
But if the shadows of past and present were also ranked, he would be the absolute leader amongst them!
Ao Fa and King Mysteryâs complexions changed at the same time. At this moment, they felt an incomparably formidable oppression. Even the hearts within their chests started to slow down.
The circulation of demonic energy in their bodies stagnated, and their perception of the outside world blurredâ¦it was like they were wrapped in thick layers of packaging. More and more layers entangled them, and even breathing became difficult.
This wasâ¦the might of the abyssâ will!
Although Old Turtle couldnât even reach 1% of its strength, it actually formed an immense suppressive force on them.
King Mystery roared, âLittle friend Qin Yu, if you donât have a way of suppressing the Shadow of Betrayalâs aura, we will all die here!â
Ao Fa was silent. Being suppressed by the Shadow of Betrayal was dangerous, but the situation wouldnât completely collapse for the time being.
But he also wanted to know what Qin Yuâs card wasâ¦or to be more exact, he wanted to know whether or not this junior had the qualifications to collaborate with them.
He and King Mystery were both genuine Abyssal True Kings. This in itself was proof of their strength.
But Qin Yu lacked such a proof.
To put it more bluntly, Ao Fa and King Mystery would adjust their attitudes and mindsets, and even what they did next, based on Qin Yuâs following performance.
If Qin Yu really had the qualifications to fight shoulder to shoulder with them, then he would certainly have a part in the final harvest of benefits.
Otherwiseâ¦of course it was âhohohoâ. If he was arrogant to such a degree and yet didnât have the strength to protect himself, his eventual fate would be to meet with a cruel death!
Deep within the pitch black eyes of the Abyssal Titan, the great sun released endless blinding light. A deep roar came from Qin Yuâs mouth that reverberated in the air, âOf course. I will help you both so that we can achieve our common interests.â
He lifted a hand and slowly reached towards the skies. His five fingers spread out and abruptly clenched together.
In an instant, a heaven-shaking explosion erupted. A terrifying impact of strength blew out, shaking apart the black clouds that wove together in the skies.
âAhh!â Old Turtle screamed in anger, unable to conceal the pain on his face. He glared at Qin Yu, his eyes flooded with hatred and fear, âWho are you? Just who are you!?â
As a shadow of the abyss, he was certainly familiar with all strengths within the abyss. But this power that tore his suppression to shreds was an entirely different strength.
It was boundless and bright, emitting an inexhaustible dignity. It swelled forth like a mighty wave that tore down everything in its path!
The complexions of Ao Fa and King Mystery changed. Their pupils shrank as dread appeared on their faces.
Qin Yu could actually release such a formidable aura. It wasnât an absolute strength, but it was even more awe-inspiring than pure strength.
Because this sort of aura represented a higher level.
Breaking the suppression of the Shadow of Betrayal meant that Qin Yuâs attack represented a will of the same level!
The Shadow of Betrayal roared in anger and asked who Qin Yu actually was. In fact, this was also what Ao Fa and King Mystery wanted to know the most right now.
But there was one point that was without doubt. Qin Yu indeed had the qualifications to collaborate with themâ¦he even had a slight advantage.
The reason âslightâ was used was because there should be a limit to the aura that Qin Yu released.
Otherwise, he should have been able to eliminate the Shadow of Betrayal by himselfâ¦after all, a shadow was just a shadow. If he could get rid of the suppression from the will of the abyssâ source aura, then its true strength wouldnât be that great.
Yet Qin Yu had taken the trouble to drag them into the Nightmare Ancestral Land. From this, it proved that there was a limit to his aura.
If not for that, so what if they were two great Abyssal True Kings? After being suppressed by an aura on the same level as the abyssâ will, they could only end up being freely slaughtered.
Qin Yu roared, âTrue Kings, I cannot maintain this for long! Please attack!â
Ao Fa and King Mystery took a deep breath. They simultaneously stepped forward without hesitation.
Bang ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Bang â
Their bodies began to inflate at a terrifying speed. In the blink of an eye, they transformed into giants with the same height as the Shadow of Betrayal.
This was the True King Form that an Abyssal True King could control after obtaining the approval of the abyssâ will and fusing with their bodyâs own bloodline.
This was the strongest state of an Abyssal True King and also the most vulnerable state of an Abyssal True Kingâ¦if the True King Form was injured, their bloodline would suffer losses. And once a certain limit was crossed, their bloodline would collapse and even their True King boundary would break!
Ao Fa and King Mystery displaying the True King Form without hesitation indicated that they were planning on going all out from the start.
Of course, this was also a show of strength. It was to inform Qin Yu that a True King was still a True King!
Even if he wielded some extremely terrifying aura that was on par with the abyssâ will, he shouldnât develop undesired thoughts towards them.
Otherwise, if two True Kings worked together and erupted with their full power, he might not be able to withstand the consequences!
It couldnât help but be said that two dignified Abyssal True Kings, especially Ao Fa and King Mystery who were famous even amongst the True King boundary, had fallen to the point where they had to make a show of strength to a Demon Commander junior to ensure their safety.
This was a truly shameful matter.
