~10 min read 1,948 words

"Wait!"

Lin Potian shouted, lifting his hands up to use every last bit of his strength to prop open the giant mouth that was about to close.

"Wait for what? I am helping you find release, don't be ungrateful!"

The eerie woman paused for an instant, ignored him entirely, and continued to bite down.

Crack, crack...!

As the mouth opened and closed, saliva flowed down Lin Potian's arms, dripping onto them and carving out trails of bloody gashes!

What was even more terrifying was that Lin Potian's hands were twisted to the point of nearly snapping, yet he still couldn't resist the closing of the mouth; he simply couldn't hold it!

This bite force was simply terrifying!

"Look, a flying tower!"

"What kind of nonsense is that? This trick of yours wouldn't even fool a three-year-old child where we come from!"

"Believe it or not, it's up to you!"

Lin Potian's voice grew urgent; why wouldn't this freak believe him? A flying tower had truly appeared behind it!

Moreover, it had already entered the Small World, not making a single sound, floating quietly behind.

And this flying tower was none other than the Tongtian Tower that had vanished earlier!

Upon arriving, the Tower Spirit, the Holy Emperor, arrogantly transmitted his voice directly to Lin Potian: "It doesn't matter, whoever it is, I will make a move!"

Lin Potian was instantly overjoyed, but he was truly about to be swallowed, and this damn Tower Spirit was actually standing there with his arms crossed, showing no intention of making a move at all!

Damn it, then don't blame me, Lin Potian, for not playing by the rules and dragging you down with me!

"A flying tower? Has your brain been scared stupid by my divine might? Why didn't you say a flying saucer? If it were a flying saucer, I might have actually looked. You keep toying with me; do you really think I have a good temper?!"

The eerie woman was furious, black fur emerged all over her body, she faintly appeared to be revealing her true form, and her giant mouth suddenly exerted force!

Lin Potian felt his arms could no longer hold it, so he simply gave up!

He leaned back, and in the blink of an eye, he spread his legs and propped up her giant mouth once again!

While his fingers hurriedly pointed behind her, he spoke urgently: "Look, a flying saucer!"

"Ant, you are truly courting death!"

Boom, boom, boom!

The eerie creature was instantly provoked, directly revealing her massive, faded-colored true form, and the power in her mouth suddenly increased!

"Hiss...!"

Lin Potian's legs were instantly spread wide, almost tearing his crotch; he gasped for air, nearly losing his life!

He hurriedly shifted his posture, using both hands and feet to prop it up again!

"Look, you damn thing, look!"

"Holy Emperor, if you don't make a move, I'm really going to be finished, I'm finished... your master will definitely come to settle the score with you!"

Lin Potian was truly at his wit's end; was this monster's brain not working right?

He said flying tower, it didn't look; he followed its request and said flying saucer, and it got angry?

And what was this flying saucer thing anyway?

Lin Potian had never even heard of it!

He was already deeply suspicious in his heart, "Is this monster really a product of this world?"

And this Holy Emperor was clearly holding a grudge over the time he was suppressed, just watching from the sidelines and looking on as he made a fool of himself!

But now that he had no other means, he could only bring up the taboo senior, to see if this damn Tower Spirit would make a move out of respect for the master, if not for the servant.

"Holy Emperor?"

"Holy Emperor!"

After the eerie woman heard these two words clearly, she subconsciously repeated them, then trembled violently!

Almost without hesitation, she revealed her true form, gave up on eating Lin Potian, slashed with her claws to tear open the Small World, and prepared to flee!

Her eyes were filled with terror!

"Just the name alone scared it like this?"

"Could it be that what he said about it not mattering, whoever it is, and that he would make a move, wasn't just posturing?"

Lin Potian was stunned; although he knew back in the Tongtian Tower that this Tower Spirit, the Holy Emperor, was very strong, even compared to the Immortal Emperor perfection he had reached just now by borrowing external force, it was far inferior.

But he hadn't expected... it would be this ridiculously strong!

Just a name alone had scared this arrogant, self-proclaimed god of an eerie monster into fleeing in a panic!

"A god whose strength is not even one in ten million, and who has been corrupted, yet you still want to escape in front of me?"

"Fine, I'll give you ten counts to escape, countdown... start!"

"Ten."

An aloof voice rang out from the Tongtian Tower, and the next second, a silver-haired youth holding a Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade stepped out, his body covered in Dao Laws, with countless rays of divine light surrounding him.

Lin Potian saw that after the Holy Emperor began the countdown, this eerie creature, who had previously called itself Yuanhuan zhi Shen, didn't even look back and fled even faster!

Moreover, the black fur all over its body withered rapidly; it was clearly burning its essence blood!

As for whether it was burning essence blood, it wasn't human, so Lin Potian couldn't judge it by human standards.

In any case, it achieved the same effect, and it vanished in a flash, crossing countless great worlds.

"Nine..."

"One!"

After the Holy Emperor counted nine, he actually skipped straight to one!

"Holy Emperor, you, you don't play by the rules!"

The monster's cursing voice echoed and resounded!

"Sorry, I don't know how to count."

"Give me... fly up!"

The corners of the Holy Emperor's mouth curled up slightly, his Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade pointed straight ahead, transforming into ten million miles in length, and exploded forward with a thrust!

Boom!

The Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade caught up to the monster in an instant, pierced through it, stabbed it all the way to the end, and then violently retracted!

"Ahhh...!"

The monster struggled incessantly, black blood flowing continuously; it made a "hissing" sound as it dripped into the void, and it even sprayed black blood toward the Holy Emperor, wanting to contaminate him!

"Behave yourself!"

The Holy Emperor formed a seal with one hand to condense a defensive barrier to resist the Ominous Black Blood, while his other hand exerted sudden force, the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade stabbing in and out frantically, poking out one hundred transparent holes!

"Ahhh, stop quickly!"

"I'm behaving, please let me go."

All the hair on the monster's body fell off, and it was completely on the verge of death.

"Since you're behaving, stay inside properly!"

The Holy Emperor gave a cold shout, picked it up and placed it into the first level of the Tongtian Tower, his hands continuously forming seals, sealing it with layer upon layer of restrictions.

Immediately after, he walked back out, blew on his slightly disheveled silver hair, looked at Lin Potian with profound meaning, and sneered:

"If you're... trash, then practice more."

"Do you know, if not for me today, you would be dead."

As soon as the words fell, Lin Potian immediately retorted angrily: "If I hadn't beaten this weird thing to a pulp, would you have had it so easy? Also, didn't you vanish into thin air earlier because of this thing?"

Upon hearing this, the Holy Emperor became even angrier than Lin Potian; his face twitched, and whether it was out of a guilty conscience or some other reason, he shouted:

"Stop talking nonsense! If it weren't for your Lady leaving with your three sons, causing me to be unable to borrow power, why would I have temporarily avoided the sharp edge?"

Lin Potian spotted the main point and said sarcastically: "Oh, so you did 'temporarily avoid the sharp edge,' and you still say you didn't run?"

"I avoided its sharp edge? Lin Potian, you bully me too much!"

The Holy Emperor was extremely furious, directly summoning the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade, the tip of the blade pointing straight at Lin Potian.

"Enough!! Every time we meet it's arguing, what are you arguing about? It's giving me a headache!"

"Young Master, say less. Holy Emperor, you be quiet too; this is the Young Master. If you are disrespectful again, don't blame me for using one thing to subdue another!"

The Tongtian Command Spirit flew out, hands on hips, looking puffed up with anger.

"Fine, okay."

Seeing Xiaoxiao, who had been with him for quite some time, speak up, Lin Potian waved his hand and shrugged, turned his head to the side, and didn't speak again.

"Xiaoxiao, what did you call him? Young Master? Have you lost too much memory and gone senile?"

Hearing the title 'Young Master,' the Holy Emperor was stunned for a moment, his face full of astonishment!

"The Eternal Dao Seed has already been obtained by the Young Master; you saw it just now, Holy Emperor, why haven't you knelt to greet the Young Master yet?"

Xiaoxiao's aura surged; as the saying goes, one thing subdues another, and even someone as strong as the Holy Emperor was instantly suppressed!

The Holy Emperor was silent for a moment, knelt on one knee, and said in a very faint voice: "Tongtian Tower spirit, Holy Emperor, greets the Young Master."

"Get up, get up, I have to thank you for saving the day this time!"

Since the Holy Emperor had already lowered his arrogant head, Lin Potian could no longer keep up his act, so he hurriedly pulled him up and asked in a deep voice:

"What exactly is this thing that is neither human, nor ghost, nor beast?"

"And what about this 'borrowing power' you mentioned? My three sons are only at Immortal King Perfection, and as for my Lady Liuli, when she was in your tower, she was only a Half-step Red Dust Immortal; how do you go about borrowing?"

Lin Potian stated his doubts one by one.

"Lin... Young Master, first to answer your second question: I can borrow the power of those living in the Tongtian Tower for my own use. Your Lady was once an Extreme Realm Immortal Venerable, but because she fled to the lower realm, her cultivation was completely gone, while I am unaffected and can borrow her former power."

The Holy Emperor paused and mused:

"As for the first question, I cannot tell you too much, I can only reveal one point: this monster was indeed once a god, but it was contaminated."

"Furthermore, it does not belong to this world; it is a true Visitor from Beyond the Heavens. Their world has also been completely contaminated."

"And because they often styled themselves as 'Primordial Gods' or something similar, the Master felt they were unworthy, so he called them 'Primordial Beasts'."

"The rest, I cannot say anymore."

Upon hearing this, Lin Potian's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered what the monster had said while grinning hideously.

You, too, have been contaminated.

"Holy Emperor, is the source of contamination this?"

Lin Potian gave a bitter smile and slowly rolled up his sleeve to reveal his arm; he saw that the blood inside the veins was no longer bright red, but had turned black.

The entire arm was covered in bloodstains from the erosion, and it had begun to show signs of extremely slight ulceration!
