I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 1061: History Is Written by the Victors
Previously on I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second...
The intelligence organization of Dark Rising is quite mature, with the richness of intelligence it controls even comparable to the gods who grasp the Three Realms and Six Paths. For talent in lower planes to appear who master divine power is quite remarkable, and Lin Yi, this fellow, actually masters a divine skill.
What most Upper-Rank Gods cannot attain, Lin Yi can achieve. Is this setting right, that it is indeed a divine skill!
Based on Lin Yi’s reliability, at a critical moment of life and death like this, Lin Yi would never joke around.
With a thought, the External Divine Artifact Divine River Song appeared beside Lin Yi and unfolded into a defensive posture, completely wrapping Lin Yi within.
Mr. Gongsu’s gaze was completely drawn to Lin Yi.
Divine River Song actually fell into Lin Yi’s hands!
That was a top-level External Divine Artifact sought by the entire Three Realms and Six Paths after the Nine Nether Transformations incident! What heavenly fortune did this fellow possess to obtain it.
Sticky black liquid continually writhes around Lin Yi, exuding a chilling aura.
At this moment, Gongshu De finally understood where Lin Yi’s confidence in daring to stand against Tremble came from.
The Soul-Breaking Skill crossed before his chest, humming lowly, its flickering gray sheen seeming dim yet creating a rather dazzling illusion.
Seeing Mr. Gongsu staring at him in a daze, Divine River Song transformed into a hand and gently tapped Mr. Gongsu’s head.
"Just now you said not to let Tremble lose focus, yet you’re doing the same? Anyway, Tremble’s coming with people, get ready."
As soon as Lin Yi’s words fell, Tremble came again with sixteen strong individuals before the two of them.
Currently, Tremble’s mouth leaves a trace of blood, his gaze sharp, fixating firmly on Mr. Gongsu and Lin Yi ahead, sweeping away any underestimation of Lin Yi.
In order to successfully achieve his aim, he even lowered his own stance.
Tremble reached out his hand, signaling the slightly restless subordinates behind him to retreat for now.
Then he adjusted his breathing and mentality, approached Lin Yi and Mr. Gongsu step by step, reached out his hand, and lowered his stance to negotiate terms with Lin Yi.
"Lin Yi, being short-sighted is something I’m doing for the first time. I must admit, your strength far exceeded my expectations. Engaging with you is indeed quite troublesome."
"Even your combat skills surpass mine. Unquestionably, you barely have self-protective abilities within a short period, but you can’t harm my people in the slightest, nor defeat them. Dragging a few minutes is no problem, but have you thought, after I deal with Mr. Gongsu, how will you cope? Can you be our opponent?"
Tremble’s words were straightforward, telling Lin Yi to seriously consider if his future should stop here, considering there’s not much emotional connection between him and Mr. Gongsu, no need to stake his life for one Mr. Gongsu.
"You played a decisive role in the Nine Nether Transformations; only the higher-ups of Dark Rising know this, that’s also why the gods haven’t targeted you yet. If this matter leaks, you know the consequence."
The 478th star was very quiet.
Quiet enough to hear Tremble’s calm breathing.
To hear such words from Tremble made Mr. Gongsu’s face quite unpleasant.
The unpleasantness was not because Lin Yi was threatened, but because Tremble, that fellow, had grown!
Initially, Tremble was such an arrogant person.
He believed in solving all problems with fists and force.
Not to mention those less powerful than himself, even for enemies far stronger than him, he planned to challenge them.
But now, Tremble changed.
He became flexible, not holding his pride in such high regard, and even began analyzing situations and resolving issues through negotiation.
"Heh, Tremble, you know this matter is only known to a few of us high-ups. Aren’t you afraid of the pursuit from Dark Rising if you leak it? Don’t tell me you plan to turn around and join the gods, having killed so many of them, do you think the Immortal King would spare you?"
Lin Yi patted Mr. Gongsu’s shoulder, speaking indifferently.
"No need to say more, the one who leaked my identity, is you."
Is it me?
Mr. Gongsu pointed at Lin Yi with a finger, eyes full of infinite bewilderment.
Wasn’t I saved by Lin Yi, my life spared, how could I betray Lin Yi?
"Don’t be surprised, think carefully, it’s not hard to understand. You’ve left Dark Rising now, right? Tremble will return, telling them you left the organization with intent, just to leak the information to the gods."
Saying this, Lin Yi pointed at Tremble.
"He’d go back and tell the Dark Rising higher-ups that to stop your leak, he had to strike and kill you, yet couldn’t prevent the leak, nor prevent the gods from killing me. Saying so, doesn’t all the dirty water on him transfer to you?"
I, I, you, you!
Mr. Gongsu’s eyes were filled with shock.
How could the facts be allowed to be twisted by Tremble like this, everything depends on evidence, doesn’t it?
Mr. Gongsu still staggered in organizing his words, unable to sort out what the situation was, then Lin Yi replied:
History, isn’t it written by the victors? Once you’re dead, what speaking rights do you have?
This single sentence allowed Mr. Gongsu to see the situation clearly and made Tremble admire Lin Yi’s sophistication even more.
How should I say, this fellow seems so mature, not like a twenty-year-old youth.
"Lin Yi, I quite admire you, whether it’s your talent and strength or your intelligence, as long as you have enough time to develop, you can absolutely become a force beyond the Immortal King. Would you give me a chance for us to collaborate well?"
Tremble’s sincerity, Lin Yi could feel.
However, Lin Yi very much disliked one point about Tremble, which was his excessive stinginess.
Collaborating with such a person is destined not to achieve great things.
"I refuse."
As soon as the words fell, Lin Yi had completed communication with Wo Zhiqi within him, successfully borrowing Wo Zhiqi’s divine power for his own use.

With a flash of gray sword light, the Soul-Breaking Skill was heavily plunged into the rare metal ore pile before him.
In the next instant, a deep humming sound quickly spread like ripples, radiating across the entire planet.
Directly contacting the Soul-Breaking Skill, those ores in an instant turned to dust, spreading with Lin Yi’s divine power, flying in all directions.
