I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon-Chapter 572 - Respective Opportunity
With a casual tap, a door opened in front of Ling Ping’an.
Countless colors swirled around the door. It was colorful, and there was a hint of strangeness in its beauty.
Behind the door, a vast and desolate world was reflected.
There was a faint howling wind.
The outline of the sun could be seen.
However, the sun was pale, lusterless, and cold.
“Immortal…” Wang Gui swallowed his saliva. “What are you doing?”
“Brother Wang solved a problem for me, so I naturally have to repay you!” Ling Ping’an said faintly.
“Brother Wang probably can’t go back to reality!” he said. “In the short term, it’s impossible to go back!”
“So, I chose a world for Brother Wang…”
He pointed at the world behind the door. “Although this world is wild, it’s quite interesting!”
“With your talent, Brother Wang, you can definitely do something!”
Wang Gui looked at the door, and his body suddenly trembled.
“What immortal means is…” Wang Gui looked at the immortal in front of him, and his expression trembled. “I can obtain the reality through this world?”
He was an illusion that had been pieced together.
He was a soul that relied on the Realm of Nightmare to survive.
As long as he left the Realm of Nightmare, he would definitely be reduced to ashes!
This was similar to a character in a real-life game who could only live on the internet and a hard drive.
Therefore, if he wanted to appear in reality…
He had to refine the fake into reality!
Without a doubt, this was an almost impossible thing.
How could data become flesh and blood?
Ling Ping’an smiled and nodded. “I once passed down the Dao of machinery and steel in this realm!”
“It is for the future of Riveted Steel Buddha!”
“It is also for the Soul of Machines, the Lord of the soul of machines!”
“It is also for the Gatling Bodhisattva!”
“It is the so-called Trinity!”
“Therefore, all living beings in this realm should learn the Dao of Steel and obtain the wisdom fruit of machinery!”
“Brother Wang, if you enter this world and comprehend the Great Dao of Steel, you will definitely achieve something!”
This was inevitable!
People like Wang Gui were tenacious, had a firm Dao heart, and had great wisdom and perseverance.
It was very difficult not to succeed!
When Wang Gui heard this, he was overjoyed and quickly bowed. “Thank you, Immortal, for your help! Thank you, Immortal, for your help!”
Then, he pleaded, “Wang Gui pleads with Immortal to allow me to bring my brothers and go together!”
Ling Ping’an was surprised and asked, “Since Brother Wang has already understood everything… Why?”
In his opinion, since Wang Gui had already awakened his wisdom and knew everything, he must have known that everyone around him had betrayed him.
Wang Gui said, “I know, but…”
“Immortal must have heard a saying…”
“When Eunuch Zhou was afraid of rumors and Wang Mang was humble and unusurped…”
“In the end, they haven’t betrayed me in this life!”
“How can I abandon them?”
Ling Ping’an nodded. Since Wang Gui was willing, then let him be!
He would accept his own choice!
Wang Gui was overjoyed and led hundreds of people to kowtow. “Thank you, Immortal!”
Then, one by one, they stepped into the door.
At this moment, the teams of the Ito family and the Longevity Group arrived late.
They watched as the people with different skin colors stepped into the colorful door.
Everyone’s mouths were wide open.
Although they didn’t recognize the door, they knew that it was definitely not simple.
Ling Ping’an naturally knew of their arrival.
However, he couldn’t be bothered with them. He only said to Huang Qin, “Alright… It’s time to fulfill the opportunity I promised you!”
As he said that, he casually drew a circle and threw Huang Qin into it.
Then, he turned around and looked at the people behind him.
He revealed a strange smile that wasn’t really a smile, and his entire person slowly disappeared into thin air.
When he disappeared, the entire Nightmare World began to shake violently.
The backs of everyone’s hands began to burn.
The voice of the Realm of Nightmare sounded in their ears, “Warning! Warning!”
“Nightmare World: Raging sea, main character lost!”
“Warning! Nightmare World: Raging sea, main character lost!”
“This world is about to collapse!”
“This world is about to collapse!”
“You must complete the main mission within ten minutes and return to the Realm of Nightmare! Otherwise, the realm will not be able to guarantee your safety!”
“Repeat…”
Everyone’s faces were filled with fear.
In the next instant, the sky collapsed.
… …
Elizabeth squatted in front of the great hall of the Mechanical Temple, praying devoutly.
On the altar, the bodies of the Descendants of Diablo were worshiped.
Those huge, deformed, and indescribable things were now dead.
The Soul of Machines’ power crushed them in every aspect.
Their flesh and blood began to melt, and their souls began to shatter.
In the end, they were absorbed by the steel of the entire temple.
With the temple as the core, all the steel parts within a 300-mile radius let out a joyful exclamation.
In the next month, all the machines of the Mechanical Sect would maintain zero wear and tear and zero malfunction.
Most importantly…
“This month we can have 50 more absolution slots than last month!” Elizabeth was incomparably delighted.
In the Mechanical Saintess’s brain, the quantum core that had long merged with her brain let out a sigh of praise. “Praise the Soul of Machines!”
The data was jumping rapidly, calculating the current output of the North American continent under the control of the Mechanical Sect at an astonishing speed and the current strength of the Mechanical Sect.
Finally, Elizabeth knew a set of numbers.
Fifty years!
If the current efficiency continued, in fifty years, mankind would be fully integrated.
The nano-machines and the fusion core in her body would become the steel parts and steam turbines favored by the machines and steel.
At that time…
She would be able to hold a grand ceremony and receive the great Soul of Machines to descend into this universe.
All diablos would be purified as one!
Suddenly…
The steel beneath her body began to rumble with machinery.
The engines rumbled.
The Soul of Machines was speaking.
Elizabeth listened and then raised her head. Behind her, wings spread open.
The Mechanical Saintess understood. The great Soul of Machines had sent a batch of guests.
Guests from another world.
These guests hoped to receive the teachings of machines and steel and convert to the great Soul of Machines!
And she would take on this mission.
This glorious and sacred mission to preach!
Elizabeth was extremely grateful!
She prostrated herself deeply on the ground, her sacred steel wings fully spread out and merged with the entire temple!
“Your will… is everything to me!”
… …
Huang Qin fell to the ground with a thud.
Rustle…
The leaves were shaking.
He found himself in a dense primitive forest.
There was a thick layer of rotten material under his feet. With just a slight movement, the withered leaves and branches were trampled on.
“Who is it?!” a voice asked.
Huang Qin turned around and almost peed himself!
That was because the person who asked the question was not a human.
Instead, it was a monster whose entire body was covered in pus and rotting tumors.
The monster looked like a bear.
To be more precise, it should be a bear demon!
However, the bear demon had become like this for some unknown reason.
The tumors on its body were like cancer cells, constantly bulging and contracting.
Vaguely, there seemed to be maggots squirming in those tumors.
Not only that, Huang Qin also felt that there was a faint sound of Sanskrit echoing in those tumors.
However…
It was a reversed scripture!
It made his eardrums swell and his limbs twitch when he heard it.
What was even more terrifying was that bear demon’s pair of eyes…
The pair of eyeballs seemed to have been smashed by something, and the crystals shattered into pieces.
However, the eyeballs continued to spin around in the bear demon’s eye sockets, as if it could still see people.
Fortunately, it seemed to be unable to see Huang Qin.
After observing for a while, the bear demon finally withdrew its gaze.
Huang Qin exhaled, and his legs couldn’t help but tremble.
Then, he heard an old man’s voice beside the bear demon. He asked, “Daoist Brother Black Wind, are you being paranoid again?”
Huang Qin carefully followed the voice and saw a monk sitting beside the bear demon.
That monk wore a kasaya, and his skin was like charcoal.
It was as if he had been burned by flames.
His body under the kasaya seemed to be still smoking.
“Master, you don’t know…” the bear demon said in a low and muffled voice, “Recently, I heard that there is a western scripture collector in Fengxian County who, under the decree of Skyless Buddha, will travel from the west to the east. He will go to Gao Lao Zhuang, Liusha River, Chang’an Wild Goose Pagoda, and Water Curtain Cave of Huaguo Mountain. He will look for the four of them and ask for the money they owe Buddha’s Scripture!”
“This matter is of great importance!”
“Last night, I dreamt of Nanhai Bodhisattva!”
When the monk heard this, he screamed, “Bodhisattva?!”
The bear demon chuckled, “It’s just a mere thought of an incarnation!”
“For a truly powerful person, it’s fine to give it up!”
“It doesn’t hurt the foundation!”
“Now, the wager between the Skyless Buddha and Metteyya Buddha involves all the saints and lords. Naturally, the story of the Journey to the West will be reenacted. With heaven and earth as a chessboard and all living beings as chess pieces, a battle will be held to determine the winner!”
“The saints cannot afford to lose their face, so they can only look for small figures like us who have no background!”
“Fortunately, I have served the Bodhisattva for hundreds of years. The Bodhisattva has shown mercy and asked me to act carefully in my dreams. I don’t want to get involved in this disaster. I don’t want to become a snack for the saints when they play chess. I don’t want those who came from Fengxian County to be beaten to death!”
Huang Qin’s body trembled as he listened.
Journey to the West!
Journey to the West!
The immortal world where the Western Spiritual Mountain and the Heavenly Court stood side by side!
Among them, there were countless people with great divine powers!
“It’s bitter!” he sighed. “How did I come to this world?!”
In such a world, even a small demon by the roadside could swallow him alive!
Moreover, he had heard the conversation between the bear demon and the monk.
He already knew the origin of the bear demon and the monk.
The bear demon must have been the black bear spirit from the Journey to the West. Later on, it was subdued by Guanyin Bodhisattva and became the mountain god guarding Mount Luojia of the South Sea.
And the monk was undoubtedly the master of the golden pool.
But…
Now, they had become like this.
Neither human nor ghost, it was very strange!
Listening to their words, they even mentioned Skyless Buddha.
Thinking about it, this might be many eras after Journey to the West.
While he was panicking, a voice came to his ears, “Huang Qin, if you don’t dare to stay in this world, I can send you back!”
“But this opportunity… is going to miss you!”
Huang Qin turned his head and saw the mysterious young master.
He was holding the cat and seemed to be sitting on a balcony, with the faint sound of a car behind him.
It was obvious that this powerful young master was talking to him through the world.
Huang Qin was about to beg this young master to send him back, but he swallowed his words.
Opportunity…
Opportunity!
He knew that if he gave up this opportunity, he would never be able to rise again.
This was because he had already tried it in the Nightmare World.
If he couldn’t rely on a large faction, he wouldn’t be able to live for long!
Seeking refuge with a major force was easy to say.
The key was that the major force might not think much of him.
He might be regarded as cannon fodder and a chess piece.
Huang Qin took a deep breath. He was smart enough to immediately plead, “I beg young master to be merciful and show me the way!”
The young man sitting on the balcony laughed, “Of course I will show you the way!”
“But… you will be tested on everything!”
“This is also the rule of the Western World!”
“Otherwise, if I give you some benefits, I’m afraid that the powerful people in this world will create countless karma with you…”
“This karma is like a small loan, P 2 P…”
“The interest would be endless!”
Huang Qin immediately bowed and said, “Young master, please test me!”
The young man touched the cat in his arms and said with a smile, “How about this…”
“You will live for three days in Mount Black Wind first!”
“If you live for three days, it means that your life is not over!”
When Huang Qin heard this, he was so scared that he wet his pants!
Three days?
If that black bear spirit found out about him, he would not even live for three seconds!
The young man seemed to have seen through his thoughts. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry!”
“I’ve cast a divine ability on you!”
“I’ve also allowed the Realm of Nightmare to secretly protect your soul!”
“In the Western World, all the demons, deities, and bodhisattvas who are stronger than you won’t be able to see you!”
“They won’t be able to find any traces of you either!”
“Only those who are weaker than you will be able to see and discover you!”
“Of course, you have to be careful too…”
“After all, those great demons and devils just can’t see or discover you!”
“But they can still hurt you!”
Huang Qin listened and nodded, more or less relieved.
… …
“This… is the Abyss?”
Li Shouyi looked at everything around him and immediately frowned.
The sky above his head was dark red, and the clouds were emitting a foul smell.
The ground beneath his feet seemed to have been stained with blood and flesh.
However, as soon as he appeared here, his Dao heart was constantly warning him.
More importantly…
He could sense that the heaven, earth, and all living things in this world were sending him endless malice!
“This is the Abyss!” Han Li gently touched the spirit blade on her waist. She hesitated for a long time before she did not pull it out.
This time she only brought her allies from this foreign world to see and sense the Abyss to prepare for the follow-up plan.
So, it was better not to alarm the demons of the Abyss!
“Let’s go!” Han Li said to Li Shouyi, “In the Abyss, I can be considered to have a few allies who are not really my allies!”
“They know more about the Abyss than I do!”
“I’ll take you to them first!”
