The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 238 - 237 Killing the God Who Blocks the Way
Lin Yun felt that Chu Han was still quite sensible, he didn’t demand Lin Yun to release him, merely expressing a desire to see the sky outside.
Obviously, Lin Yun wouldn’t release him either, not because of a bloodthirsty nature, but because the two were sworn enemies.
If he killed everyone in the village and then gave Chu Han a chance to live, there was no guarantee that Chu Han wouldn’t suddenly rise up in the future.
Not eliminating the roots when cutting the grass is a big taboo among big taboos.
Therefore, Lin Yun, generally a go-with-the-flow type of person, seldom made enemies, and if he did make an enemy, he probably wouldn’t sleep well until not even one of their family members remained alive.
Of course, that’s speaking of sworn enemies.
If it were just small disputes, Lin Yun wouldn’t care much.
Now, Chu Han first schemed against the three of them, unsuccessful in doing so, and then his grandfather tried to seize Lin Yun’s body. There was no reason to let Chu Han go.
"Rest easy on your journey, I promise you, I will scatter your ashes in the outside world,"
If you’ll even have ashes, that is, considering Lin Yun tends to burn people without much care, not quite able to control the intensity of the fire.
Chu Han looked at the stack of coded scrolls in Lin Yun’s hands, his expression like that of a eunuch condemned to death by the Emperor, harboring a reluctance to part with this mortal world and an inner unwillingness, yet completely powerless to resist.
"If I turn into a Mist Beast, if I can restrain myself from attacking you all, could you then spare my life?"
This intense desire to have one last look at the outside world deeply moved Lin Yun.
"Yes,"
Lin Yun passed the scroll to him, and Chu Han, with a hardened heart, swallowed the whole scroll in one gulp.
Bai Jiaojiao pulled Lin Yun back a bit, while Xiao Qing stood in front of the two, taking a defensive stance.
Soon, a mist of blood sprayed out of Chu Han’s body, somewhat resembling Bai Jiaojiao’s transformation process; changing one’s form into another seemed to be incredibly painful indeed.
And as the mist of blood spread, the fog began to permeate the Divine Temple, as if a Divine Spirit was about to come to enjoy the Sacrifice.
Apparently, the creature that swallowed the coded scroll became the Sacrifice.
The wish of Chu Han to leave this place alive most likely wasn’t going to be possible.
The blood mist was quickly absorbed by the Great Mist, and a voice emerged in the minds of Lin Yun and the others.
"State your wishes."
This voice was majestic and solemn, exuding an aura of supremacy. Bai Jiaojiao could barely withstand this pressure; though she had been previously intimidated by the Divine Might of the Demon Dragon, this time, having succeeded in her Transforming Dragon, she had acquired a certain resistance to the coercion from superior beings.
However, Xiao Qing had it worse as she knelt on the spot.
Such is the terrifying might of a Divine Spirit.
Even if it was a deceased Divine Spirit.
So that’s how it is, offering a Sacrifice allowed one to make a wish to the Great Mist—this was originally Chu Han’s plan.
Lin Yun said, "Send us out of this Secret Realm and back to the Mortal Realm."
Lin Yun’s statement was very clear, there should be no ambiguity that would result in him being sent outside the village but still inside the Secret Realm, or outside the Secret Realm but not in the Mortal Realm.
"One Sacrifice can only send one person away."
Lin Yun: "..."
Are you playing this game with me?
"Can we negotiate? Send the three of us away."
"One Sacrifice can only send one person away."
"How about if after I leave, I catch four people for you?"
"One Sacrifice can only send one person away."
Oh well, it’s an emotionless looped response.
Seeing this, Xiao Qing resolutely looked at Lin Yun, extending a hand, saying, "The other Sacrifice, let me be the one."
"No!"
Bai Jiaojiao restrained her hand, firmly disagreeing.
Da Bai had already died trying to save her; she had to take good care of Xiao Qing.
However, there was another problem now looming before her.
She didn’t want to die. She had cultivated for a thousand years, transforming from a mere snake to finally becoming a Transforming Dragon. She had faced countless dangers and hardships along the way; how could she simply resign herself to death?
Bai Jiaojiao looked towards Lin Yun. He originally wanted to suggest that they just kill that thing, but Bai Jiaojiao’s gaze made him feel somewhat uneasy.
Could this Little White Dragon possibly be a heartless dragon?
Thus, Lin Yun didn’t speak; he wanted to know what choice Bai Jiaojiao would make.
"Should we... "
Bai Jiaojiao made a throat-slitting gesture.
Lin Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief; Bai Jiaojiao hadn’t disappointed him.
Just as he had never thought of leaving Bai Jiaojiao and the Green Snake behind and making his own escape, Bai Jiaojiao also didn’t think of sacrificing her own people to appease the Divine Spirit.
Now they were getting somewhere!
The Green Snake had never imagined that Lin Yun and Bai Jiaojiao would be so bold; the terror of Divine Might had made it impossible for her to harbor any thoughts of resistance, but Lin Yun and Bai Jiaojiao were different. They could both resist Divine Might.
If there was room for negotiation, they should negotiate properly. If negotiation wasn’t possible, then they should fight!
The two were conspiring openly, but the Great Mist showed no reaction; Bai Jiaojiao directly punched towards the Great Mist expecting the followers to articulate their wishes.
Her punch did no damage; Bai Jiaojiao’s fist went right through the Great Mist’s body, which enraged the Great Mist.
"To scorn a Divine Spirit is to court death!"
The dignity of a Divine Spirit cannot be desecrated by mortals.
Bai Jiaojiao also lacked experience in handling such bizarre beings; her punch was simply to test the waters.
Seeing that the Great Mist was provoked and that the mist surged as if it was about to retaliate, Lin Yun also made his move. He remembered that the Great Mist feared his fire.
Lin Yun opened up the Fire Domain right in front of Bai Jiaojiao, causing the Great Mist to retreat a bit.
Good. If it had something it feared, there was a way to deal with it.
Since the path of sacrifice was a dead end, Lin Yun had no choice but to take another route.
"Xiao Qing, start absorbing!"
Lin Yun was summoning the Azure Dragon Gu Worm, and upon hearing his command, Xiao Qing was utterly bewildered.
Absorb? Absorb what? How to absorb?
Xiao Qing became confused, while within Lin Yun, the Little Green Dragon started to operate at full capacity.
It circulated a few times within Lin Yun’s Dantian, creating an immensely large vortex in his Qi Sea. At that moment, Lin Yun felt his body begin to wildly absorb the nearby Spiritual Power. However, it seemed that some force had sealed the area, preventing Lin Yun from absorbing more Spiritual Power.
The Great Mist also couldn’t be absorbed. It seemed that it wasn’t the power of the Great Mist, but rather a True Spirit roaming in the mist because it had died, and thus lacked wisdom, only a mechanical program.
That was probably it!
If that’s the case...
"Jiao Jiao, tear down this Divine Temple!"
Lin Yun unleashed the largest fireball he could muster, smashing it into the wall, while Bai Jiaojiao punched a pillar, causing the Divine Temple to tremble.
"To desecrate a Divine Spirit, die!"
That dignified voice spoke again. However, just as it began to drive the mist toward Lin Yun, it was completely burned away by Lin Yun’s fire.
With Lin Yun upfront taking the brunt, the Green Snake finally stood up and joined Bai Jiaojiao in the demolition crew.
Transforming into her Green Snake form, she whipped her tail at a pillar, causing the Divine Temple to shake once more.
When sisters act in unity, they can slice through metal. With the demolishing sisters’ combined effort, the main pillars fell, and the beams came crashing down. Lin Yun and the two women quickly fled the Divine Temple, and with a few more hits to the walls surrounding it, the temple collapsed.
When the Divine Temple collapsed, the mass of white mist also completely lost it.
"You shall all die!"
