I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 870: Ghosts Return Again
Previously on I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second...
Even Xiyue, who usually couldn’t get along well with Lin You, felt genuinely heartbroken at this moment.
Lin Yi reached out, trying to touch the Divine Power belonging to Lin You.
But it slipped away like sand he couldn’t hold onto.
"This time, our mission failed."
The black energy on his body gradually dissipated, and the sharp, fierce aura also slowly faded, indicating Lin Yi had regained control over his body.
His damaged arm began to heal visibly fast.
The earlier explosion must have caused Lin Yi a lot of pain.
But this pain was nothing compared to losing Lin You.
Upon hearing this, Ziyue was shocked, instantly recalling the scene of her planet being massacred by Fierce Beasts.
Yet she dared not ask why they failed.
Even Lin You, an Upper-Rank God of such caliber, paid with his life in this operation. How could she dare to ask if any step went wrong?
"The Nine Netherworld is about to change drastically soon, and the upcoming events are beyond our capability to handle. If we can withdraw from the Nine Netherworld in time, we might still have a chance to survive. But if we fail to leave promptly, we might also perish here. So, follow me closely."
After saying this, Lin Yi once again activated the Seventy-Two Transformations skill, changing Xiyue and Ziyue into the appearance of Nine Nether Divine Soldiers.
The palace where the Lord of the Nine Netherworld resided at that moment was surrounded by Nine Nether Divine Soldiers completely.
Although Laughing Buddha used some tricks to injure Qin Zhu, he had a significant gap in hard power compared to Qin Zhu. He couldn’t possibly defeat Qin Zhu, especially since Qin Zhu’s palace housed countless Personal Guards.
Under such circumstances, how could Qin Zhu lose?
"Qin Zhu, I know I can’t beat you, but you should also be aware of whom I represent. If you really plan to kill me, what consequences will you face? You should understand better than me, right?"
Laughing Buddha staggered, his figure swayed, yet his face retained a confident smile.
"It won’t be long before the people behind me arrive here, and then we shall see how you will explain things."
No matter where the rulers are, they are rulers with a pride belonging to them. Being threatened like this in front of their subordinates, how could Qin Zhu possibly swallow his pride?
The orders set by All Celestial Divine Beings, or the actions of the Dark Rising Organization, are not what Qin Zhu wishes to see.
Compared to the Dark Rising, Qin Zhu hopes more for the Three Realms and Six Paths to continue according to the will of the Divine Beings.
As the ruler of the Undead dimension, Qin Zhu can see the experiences of the deceased before they were judged.
He knows very well that the rise of Dark Rising would increase the number of the deceased in this world.
He doesn’t want to be an enemy of the Divine Beings and stand against Dark Rising, but the intelligence within the Nine Netherworld contains information that Divine Beings must not know.
"I’ve never stood against you, I’ve said before, there is no specialized intelligence agency in the Nine Netherworld. Those things, I don’t want to know."
If a few words could resolve the trouble, the two would not have needed to clash.
"Heh, Qin Zhu, you no longer have a chance. The Nine Netherworld can’t be preserved, I told you seriously that your choice will determine the future of the Nine Netherworld, but you didn’t listen, now it’s too late."
As soon as the words fell, the expression on Qin Zhu’s face changed.
The restrictions he set were broken directly by a powerful means.
Without needing a detailed perception, Qin Zhu knew the strong ones of the Divine Beings had arrived.
With such non-cooperation regarding the role from above, how could the bigshots above easily agree?
"Alright, since you are unkind, don’t blame me for being unrighteous!"
Qin Zhu understood that there was no room left for maneuver.
Starting a full-scale war with All Celestial orders had already become an inevitable situation.
Gathering Divine Power at the index finger of his left hand, he then held his left hand with his right hand and gently scratched. A blood mark appeared on Qin Zhu’s hand.
Using his hand as a pen and blood as ink, he wrote a talisman in the air.
The blood light illuminated the sky above the palace, and strong Divine Power waves emerged from the talisman in front of Qin Zhu.
"Nine Nether River, listen to my command, suspend!"
"When the birds are gone, the bow is concealed; when the cunning rabbit dies, the hunting dog is cooked! Warriors of the Sha Ghost Tribe, it’s time for your revenge, come forth and show these Divine Beings the fury hidden within your chests for thousands of years!"
After chanting, Qin Zhu struck the talisman in front of him towards the distance. The talisman transformed into a large circular disc mid-flight, landing on the land of the Nine Netherworld.
In the next instant, scarlet Ghost-Slaying Qi surged skyward.
Seeing the scene before him, Laughing Buddha was completely stunned.
What, this is?
"No, impossible, the Demon Slayer Tribe was exterminated long ago, how can they still exist? How could the bigshots above not sense their presence? Impossible! This is impossible!"
The Demon Slayer Tribe is a race that only exists in legend.
When the Divine Beings sought to establish their own order, the Demon Slayer Tribe contributed a lot, did countless dirty deeds for the Divine Beings.
Yet after completing these dirty tasks, the Divine Beings did not give the Demon Slayer Tribe the rewards they deserved, instead slaughtering them to the brink.
Though the ending of the Demon Slayer Tribe was tragic.
The strength of the Demon Slayer Tribe was terrifyingly great.
Facing one or two people from the Demon Slayer Tribe, Laughing Buddha could still cope somewhat.
However, aside from their extremely formidable combat power and killing instinct, the Demon Slayer Tribe also possesses an incredibly fearsome reproduction ability.
From the surging Ghost-Slaying Qi, it’s easy to sense how immense the number of the Demon Slayer Tribe hidden in the Land of the Nine Netherworld is.
"Heh heh heh, you all want to act against my Nine Netherworld, isn’t it just trying to reenact the tragedy from thousands of years ago? Then come, let this old man and the warriors of the Shagui Tribe teach you a lesson!"
The frequent occurrences of the proverb "when the rabbit dies, the hound gets cooked," are not rare.
Qin Zhu foresaw this occurrence thousands of years ago, and so, back when the Demon Slayer Tribe was about to face annihilation, he carved out a place for the Demon Slayer Tribe to survive at the bottom of the Nine Nether River.
With the isolation of the Nine Nether River, the Demon Slayer Tribe successfully evaded the perception of the Divine Beings, even the Dark Rising Tribe failed to detect the existence of the Demon Slayer Tribe.
After several millennia of recuperation, the strength of the Demon Slayer Tribe had recovered, even vastly surpassing its former glory.
They also clearly understand that the Demon Slayer Tribe reemerged in present glory thanks to the support of the Lord of the Nine Netherworld, Qin Zhu.
Qin Zhu undertook this action for the future of the Nine Netherworld.
As for the Demon Slayer Tribe, besides repaying the favor, they seek justice for the unfairness suffered by their tribe.
Lin Yi’s perception is very powerful.
He keenly perceived the surging Ghost-Slaying Qi skyrocketing into the sky.
From that crimson aura, Lin Yi sensed an overwhelming killing intent.
"What is the cause of such a powerful killing intent?"
Lin Yi squinted his eyes, gazing at the Nether River behind him.
