Chapter 362: Who Is Actually Afraid?
More than thirty evil gods gathered at the place where the evil spirits were stationed.
However, unlike their previous wanton arrogance, the evil gods now are all deathly and gloomy.
The Terrible Evil God, who had almost been blown up, also had his body restored by the Destroy Heavenly Dao, though his mood was not good either.
"So, up to now we have already lost about ten to twenty evil gods?"
"And up to now we have no way to deal with Shen Qing at all."
The Terrible Evil God is full of doubt and fury.
The doubt is why Yuanchu and the Purple Wing Evil God also have no way; the fury is that earlier Shen Qing had almost killed him covertly, and now they say Shen Qing keeps getting stronger.
The surrounding evil gods fell into silence, because of the Destroy Heavenly Dao, they had never worried about death before, and they even regarded death lightly.
But now, when the threat of death descended upon their heads, they finally understood how terrifying death truly is.
Suddenly, an evil god blurted out: "Why don't we run?"
Upon hearing this, the other evil gods were stunned.
That evil god continued: "The situation is lost; fighting now would be pointless. We might as well leave. Over the years, we have encountered only a few civilizations as strong as humanity."
"We could live carefree in any civilization we find."
That is indeed true; human civilization is still far beyond the norm, with Martial Emperor and Old Ancestor Shen having gone far along the New Path, and also Kai'er, a strong one who has just stepped onto the New Path.
Such a civilization is as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns even in the universe.
Most civilizations don't even have experts at the Land Immortal level, and the Elf Clan is already considered a strong race.
Gradually, the voices of agreement grew louder.
But just then, the Purple Wing Evil God's voice, filled with sneering, sounded.
"What an ugly face, Yuanchu! I told you earlier, they're already finished!"
In the human world, Land Immortals have no chance of resurrection; every battle for them is a life-and-death struggle, a fight where they stake their lives, and countless battles of fighting for their lives have forged their extraordinary mentality.
As for the evil gods, before becoming evil gods they also fought their way up through death battles, but after becoming evil gods they received the protection of the Destroying Power, lost the threat of death, and over the long ages their mentality completely changed.
If we say the human world's Land Immortals are a pack of wild wolves roaming death and blood, then the evil gods are like domesticated dogs—looking fearsome but long since lacking that wildness.
All the evil gods, seeing that it was the Purple Wing Evil God scolding them, lowered their heads and dared not retort.
The Purple Wing Evil God's eyes held contempt: "Yuanchu, do you see this? I've scolded them like this, and they didn't even dare to retort!"
Yuanchu's face was calm, but the disappointment in his eyes could not be hidden.
The Evil Clan's world has over sixty evil gods, while the human world has only over thirty Land Immortals.
Even so, over a thousand years the Evil Clan has never managed to defeat humanity; instead, humanity shows an ever-growing trend of strength.
Yuanchu has also thought about this more than once, but after thinking it over, he could only reach one conclusion.
Success comes from the Heavenly Dao; failure also comes from the Heavenly Dao.
The Evil Clan's success lies in the Destroy Heavenly Dao granting them the ability to resurrect, but because of that ability, they have lost their faith.
Yuanchu still wanted to say something, but at that moment he sensed a powerful threat approaching.
He instinctively retaliated with a black beam of light, colliding with the golden slash coming from behind.
With a boom, the void tore apart.
Shen Qing and his party also appeared in the void; the evil gods, seeing this, were shocked and had not noticed how Shen Qing's group had sneaked up here.
If Yuanchu had not noticed the clue, that slash from Shen Wendao just now would have landed on their heads.
"What's going on? How did they get here?"
"How is this possible? Why didn't I notice any movement..."
Yuanchu looked at Shen Qing: "It's the Destroying Power."
Shen Qing's voice was somewhat flat, but with a hint of curiosity: "Yuanchu, when I obtained the Steal Heaven Exchange Day Method, I suspected that you too had mastered the Supreme Power."
"Now it seems you indeed have mastered it."
After all, the Steal Heaven Exchange Day Method was created to seize the Supreme Power, and Yuanchu Evil God's comprehension is naturally unquestionable; mastering the Steal Heaven Exchange Day Method is not difficult.
One who can walk the New Path naturally isn't someone without ambition; if he realized he could master the Supreme Power, he would naturally not idle.
Just now Yuanchu discovered Shen Qing in advance because he sensed the Destroying Power.
Yuanchu lowered his head and chuckled: "I never expected my trump card to be exposed by you so easily."
This drew the attention of everyone and the evil gods.
Martial Emperor spoke: "Then why have you never used the Destroying Power?"
Even if they used the Destroying Power, Martial Emperor and Old Ancestor Shen wouldn't be too afraid, for the New Path they have taken is extraordinary.
But if Yuanchu used the Destroying Power, humanity's situation would definitely be much worse than now.
Yuanchu raised his hand, and strands of violent Destroying Power surfaced in his palm.
"In your Great Wu, isn't there a famous ancient saying?"
"When the cunning rabbit dies, the hunting dog is cooked."
There are similar prototypes in history.
First is Han Xin; if he hadn't decisively killed Xiang Yu, and had developed a bit longer, the final outcome would not have ended so miserably.
Next is Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang.
How could the ever-calculating Sima Yi not see through the Empty City Strategy as a fake, with no ambush in the city? It's just that, had he killed Zhuge Liang back then, Cao Cao would not have reused him.
In that case, Yuanchu Evil God's meaning is clear: if he quickly dealt with Martial Emperor and the others, the Destroy Heavenly Dao would be another matter entirely.
Shen Qing looked at Yuanchu Evil God: "Do you want to completely devour the power of the Destroy Heavenly Dao? Do you want to kill him? Or replace him?"
Yuanchu Evil God's face showed a strange expression: "You ask me this question; it seems you know quite a bit."
"I am not far from success."
"But I really didn't expect you to pop out from some corner."
Enough chatter—are we still going to fight or not? The Purple Wing Evil God spoke, his tone mocking.
Stop chatting, stop chatting, are we still fighting or not? At that moment, Ziyi Xieshen spoke, his tone laced with mockery.
Zhuwu, your sneak attack failed—we now have forty evil gods to your twenty-plus. Are you really sure you want to keep fighting?
Zhu Wu, your sneak attack failed; now we have forty Evil Gods, you only have twenty-plus—are you sure you still want to fight?
Shen Wen Dao laughed loudly: "Ridiculous! For the past thousand years, when have we ever been the few fighting the many? Have you won?"
Shen Wendao laughed loudly: "Nonsense! In the past thousand years, when have we not been outnumbered? Have you won?"
Shen Wen Dao shrugged and asked, "Purple Wing, are you scared? Are you scared?"
Saying that, Shen Wendao spread his hands: "Ziyi, are you scared? Are you scared?"
The land immortals behind them drew their weapons, their battle spirit soaring as terrifying energy surges whipped up endless gusts.
Behind them, the Land Immortals drew their weapons one after another, fighting spirit soaring endlessly, terrifying primordial qi fluctuations stirred up endless wind and waves.
Scared? Are you afraid I'm old?
Afraid? Are you scared of getting old?
Damn it! I'll fuck you!
Evil spirit! I fuck you※!
Shen Wen Dao laughed loudly: "Purple Wing, turn around and see—look at that pack of loser dogs behind you!"
Shen Wendao laughed loudly: "Ziyi! Turn around and take a look! Look at that bunch of defeated dogs behind you!"
Who's really the scared one here?!!!
Who exactly is afraid!!!
