First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!-Chapter 739: Carrying Out Brutality and Massacre to the End — Just As You Wished!
The inner demon Lu Ding struggled desperately, his face and eyes filled with utter unwillingness and defiance, which even suppressed the physical pain.
But it was useless.
Too weak.
His struggles were, to Lu Ding, like the play-fighting of a child.
Lu Ding did not restrain its hands.
Instead, he stood straight, letting it try to pry open the hand firmly gripping its neck.
He opened his center wide.
Leaving himself open for attack.
And this casual, powerful posture filled the inner demon Lu Ding with profound despair.
If before, from the First to the Fourth Restriction, it was subdued by Lu Ding's extraordinary phenomena.
Then now, at the Fifth Restriction. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
Lu Ding's power, it would experience firsthand.
"I... I don't understand a word you're saying!?"
"Let... let me go..."
The inner demon wanted to retreat and flee. The current Lu Ding, having entered the Fifth Restriction, was simply not something it could contend with.
Since it had already made its attempt, and Lu Ding had successfully cultivated to the Fifth Restriction.
Logically speaking.
It should be able to withdraw, quietly lurking within the Fifth Restriction, waiting for an opportunity to cause trouble for Lu Ding. As long as he didn't break through to God Ascension for a single day, it could exist forever.
But!!!
Now, being held in Lu Ding's grip, it couldn't escape at all.
As if subjected to some kind of confinement or seal.
Lu Ding continued speaking on his own, "Don't understand?"
He laughed, "I'm not playing some guessing game with you, about humans and horses, two legs and four legs."
His hand exerted force, gradually tightening, listening to the sound of the inner demon Lu Ding's Adam's apple cracking under pressure, shattering.
A hollow cough spewed blood, mixed with shredded flesh and tissue.
The inner demon's eyes bulged, its face flushed red as if about to explode.
Lu Ding's voice continued, "Posture, strength, ability... you're not much different from me at the Fourth Restriction. Except for certain things you can't do, you're practically another version of me."
"I also know that inner demons will always exist within the Fifth Restriction, waiting to cause trouble, affecting one's state of mind."
"I'm very confident in my mental state, but I don't like anyone causing trouble for me."
"So..."
"Prick up your ears and listen clearly."
"My question is: if there are two identical existences, one acting as the king to dominate the battle, the other acting as the mount to enhance combat power, what is the difference between them?"
"Answer me!!!!"
Lu Ding's voice boomed within the Inner Landscape, and also within the breakthrough space of the Fifth Restriction.
Wang Qingge silently stood to the side.
She didn't make a sound.
But she raised a wooden sign.
[Cool!]
Inner demons are the opposite of a person.
For a kind person, the inner demon is evil.
For an evil person, the inner demon is kind.
And for someone like Lu Ding, decisive, though upholding order, yet tinged with a bit of evil, his inner demon is hesitant 'justice'.
Therefore.
This personality also influenced the inner demon.
Facing Lu Ding's interrogation, it said with difficulty, "Con... conscience..."
"Someone as brutal, unprincipled, and wantonly slaughtering as you... talking about kings and mounts is simply laughable!"
"You... you dare to recall the people you've killed along your journey? You dare to recall the origin of your infamous epithet? They were enemies, they were demons and monsters."
"But they had the right to face judgment. Their crimes... are not your excuse for wanton slaughter."
"I can't defeat you, but I could never become your mount either! And someone like you, no matter how powerful, you could never become any kind of 'king'!!!"
Its blood-stained spittle sprayed onto Lu Ding's face.
Lu Ding casually wiped it off.
His expression gradually grew rampant, arrogance naturally arising in his eyes.
Was there truth in what the inner demon said?
Of course.
Different people, facing the same thing, as long as they are normal, have their own truths.
Lu Ding was the same.
Black smoke began to involuntarily seep out.
Forming a stark contrast with the inner demon in his hand.
At a time like this, if this were an anime, there would definitely be a reversal.
But reality is not anime.
Weak is weak, strong is strong!
Lu Ding had his own convictions. He had selfish desires, he wasn't a saint, he couldn't sacrifice himself for the greater good.
But since he had joined the 749 Bureau, he had to be worthy of this job.
Now, he was a defender of order. Those who dared violate order would inevitably face his judgment. In the future, he would be a guardian of harmony. All who disrupted harmony would inevitably face his ferocity.
Judging by actions, not intentions, what Lu Ding could guarantee was that his own heart was not crooked.
He spoke.
His voice seemed to have added reverb.
Exploding within the Inner Landscape, exploding throughout the entire Fifth Restriction space.
"Wrong!!!!"
"It's instinct! The instinct for battle!!!"
"I only asked you to answer the question, I didn't ask you to lecture me with principles even a three-year-old understands."
"This is the difference between you and me!!"
"You say I slaughter wantonly?"
Lu Ding smiled, the corners of his mouth pulling back to reveal sharp teeth like a saw blade, adding another layer of wild arrogance.
"Do you know how the first 'person' to die by my hand died?"
There were unsolved mysteries about Lu Ding that the inner demon didn't know, but this matter, the inner demon did know.
In an instant.
It remembered Lu Ding's first mission after joining the 749 Bureau.
The Black Granny Incident.
In that incident, Lu Ding first saw blood, tearing Tong Yong, who treated the Black Granny as his personal old grandpa, into shredded chicken with his bare hands!
The inner demon's heart jolted, "Could it be..."
Lu Ding saw through its expression.
Raising his voice, he declared, "That's right!!"
"Since you say I'm brutal, that I slaughter wantonly, then I shall carry what you've said through to the very end!!!!!"
His free left hand directly lifted, stabbed into the inner demon's body, hooked onto flesh and bone, without the slightest hesitation.
A pull!
Riiiiip!!!!
"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!"
A scream of unbearable agony rang out, exceptionally pleasing to the ear.
The once complete humanoid inner demon was instantly torn in two.
Blood sprayed, internal organs tumbled out.
"Hahahahahahaha......."
Lu Ding's laughter wantonly mocked the inner demon's incompetence.
The criteria for victory between an inner demon and a Qi Refiner are somewhat complex.
The inner demon's victory is simple: as long as it affects the Qi Refiner's mental state, whether for good or evil, as long as he cannot persist in being his truest self, cannot break through to God Ascension.
Then the inner demon is victorious.
But the Qi Refiner's victory and breakthrough are much more complex.
Persisting in being one's truest self is the foundation.
And to break through to God Ascension.
One needs to obtain the inner demon's acknowledgment.
Body without leaks, mind without leaks, only then can one ascend to godhood.
Therefore, this is also why there are many at the Fifth Restriction in New City, but few who reach God Ascension. Subduing the inner demon is too difficult.
With these prerequisites in place, the inner demon didn't believe Lu Ding dared to kill it.
Dragging its mutilated body, it gasped in pain from the cold air, but its eyes were firm, as if confident of success, and it said, "You don't dare kill me! You cannot kill me!!!"
