Chapter 869: I Already Knew

The Crimson Eye was an Antique after all. After a brief shock, he quickly restrained his inner emotions. His vertical pupil stared intently at Li Yu, and he said in a deep voice:

"Who are you? And what is your purpose?"

The other party was clearly coming for him, but he himself couldn't think of what he had that was worth risking to scheme for.

Yes, he thought this guy was taking a risk.

He could fully sense the other party's Strength. It wasn't considered too powerful; at any rate, it definitely wasn't a match for him.

The primary source of power for a Dimensional Demon God was the dimensional world they possessed.

It was just that, he clearly couldn't develop under the current situation of the Deep Dimensional World.

However, this didn't mean his Strength had decayed severely.

Although far from his peak, his comprehensions over so many years weren't empty talk either. His Strength couldn't compare to the Four Great Demon Gods, but dealing with some small fries was definitely not a problem.

But this guy in front of him wasn't a Dimensional Demon God either.

He had sensed it the first moment he saw this guy; this was a Main Universe lifeform.

"I've come to borrow something from you." Li Yu looked at the other party, his tone indifferent.

"Borrow something?" The Crimson Eye was clearly somewhat surprised by this answer, but he didn't think for too long before saying:

"No matter what you're here to do, the news that I am still alive can only remain here."

No matter what, he would never allow the news to leak out and attract the Four Great Demon Gods.

Of course, there might be more than just this one person in front of him who knew the news that he was still alive. There might be someone behind him.

However, as long as he captured him, everything would be Smoothly solved.

Therefore, he directly made his move.

However, just as he was about to dash forward, thirteen Dimensional Demon God-level Auras suddenly shot out from all directions. Energy converged, forming an energy barrier in front of Li Yu.

"Hmm!?"

This sudden scene forced the Crimson Eye to stop his movements, appraising the Primordial King Kongs that had suddenly appeared behind Li Yu.

"Thirteen Mechanical Lifeforms, all at the Dimensional Demon God level. Is this your reliance?" The Crimson Eye was somewhat shocked and uncertain:

"How could those Traitors let so many Main Universe lifeforms come to the Deep Dimensional World?"

"Have they all become Idiots!?"

Main Universe lifeforms of this quantity and scale, and all at the Dimensional Demon God level, couldn't possibly not be discovered.

"Fighting one-on-one, none of these guys are my match, but their number is too many after all. It's not something that can be resolved In a short while."

The Crimson Eye thought to himself.

More importantly, once the battle started, the resulting Energy Fluctuation couldn't be concealed and would inevitably attract more Dimensional Demon Gods to arrive in a short time.

Then his plan to hide his Identity would completely fall through.

"I'm afraid I have to use some trump cards..." His vertical pupil flickered.

"Don't you want to hear what I want to borrow?" Li Yu said loudly.

The Crimson Eye didn't pay any attention to him. He reached out a large hand and then abruptly clenched it.

In an instant, the entire dimensional world experienced a Storm is Brewing. That long river traversing the firmament boiled continuously, and unexpectedly, some motes of light rose up from both sides.

If one looked carefully, one could distinguish that those motes of light were flying out from the lifeforms living on both sides of the river.

After the motes of light flew out, those lifeforms rapidly dissipated between heaven and earth.

And the entire long river continuously condensed, ultimately turning into a crimson trident through and through, emitting a soul-stirring Aura.

With Weapon in hand, the Crimson Eye's Aura rose several levels again. The two complemented each other, having accompanied him in campaigns for countless years.

"Tsk, the Crimson Trident..." Li Yu didn't find this scene surprising.

"You know this too?"

An even more intense murderous intent erupted in the Crimson Eye's vertical pupil.

Looking at the other party's demeanor and expression, it seemed he had long anticipated that this river traversing the firmament was actually his Weapon incarnation.

This gave him a feeling of being seen through in front of the other party. A trace of panic actually arose in his heart, and it also made his murderous intent even more blazing.

However, Li Yu didn't just watch idly. He had already activated the [Eternal Core] at the same time. Faint golden Electric Arcs wreathed around him, and the thirteen Primordial King Kongs flew towards him.

A golden electromagnetic vortex continuously expanded, ultimately exploding abruptly, revealing the colossal entity within—the Primordial Celestial Sovereign!

The Primordial Celestial Sovereign's massive metallic body was entwined with a thundercloud storm. Its every movement contained terrifying might, and the inadvertently caused shockwaves made this dimensional world nearly Collapse.

However, aside from this guy before him, this dimensional world had no other living lifeforms.

The lifeforms living on both sides of that river were essentially also incarnations of the trident.

Then, a large mechanical hand reached out, and in the next moment, the Holy Spear of Alnania appeared in its hand, its Aura equally profound and terrifying.

"Eternal Core? Holy Spear of Alnania?"

The scene before him clearly exceeded the Crimson Eye's expectations.

To allow Mechanical Lifeforms to undergo fusion, the only thing he could think of was the Eternal Core of the Eternal Civilization.

And the Holy Spear of Alnania was the supreme treasure of the Iron-Blood Civilization, so he naturally recognized it.

With these two things combined, the other party's Identity was already obvious.

"You're that Dragon Sovereign!?"

The Crimson Eye recognized him. Although he lived in seclusion here, it didn't mean he was completely isolated from the world.

Moreover, that massive free-for-all that previously occurred in the Main Universe wasn't considered some big secret, and he was very clear about what had happened during it.

It was just unexpected that after this Dragon Sovereign had disappeared for so long, his reappearance would actually be in the Deep Dimensional World.

"Wait!" Seeing the other party charging forward, the Crimson Eye couldn't help but shout to stop him.

He already didn't want to fight now, because he could be certain that this battle wasn't something that could be resolved In a short while.

However, the other party had no intention of listening to him speak. Bang! The two massive weapons fiercely clashed together!

Clang!!

A Shockwave burst apart, triggering a chain reaction that instantly swept across the entire dimensional world.

The battle between the two instantly reached a white-hot stage. The Crimson Eye shuttled back and forth through the gaps of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable's attacks. A large number of floating devices ejected from the Primordial Celestial Sovereign's body.

Highly Concentrated Energy Rays were like swinging chains of light, seemingly outlining an airtight net.

This dimensional world on the verge of Collapse, enduring the devastation from the two of them, was tottering.

Under the Primordial Celestial Sovereign form, his overall Strength was directly elevated to the Source Matter third Metamorphosis level, coupled with the Amplification of [Legendary Quality], the boost from [Sanguine Fight], and [Morphological Burst].

There were even the [Set Effect] and various other Amplification states. His current individual combat power had probably reached an appalling level.

At the very least, this Crimson Eye before him had completely not anticipated it and directly fell into a disadvantage, being suppressed and beaten.

Bang bang bang bang!

The Holy Spear of Alnania frequently clashed with the Crimson Trident.

Every strike produced a violent Energy Blast, exploding out Shockwaves mixed with various energies that spread far and wide.

Every Impact also left an extremely deep mark on the trident.

Clearly, the Weapon tier of the trident was far inferior to the Holy Spear of Alnania.

Feeling the Impact brought by every collision, the Crimson Eye felt secretly alarmed.

Although he had long known that this guy grasped the Eternal Core of the Eternal Civilization, when truly facing it, he still couldn't figure it out.

How could the fusion of fourteen ordinary Dimensional Demon Gods erupt with such powerful combat power?

It completely defied the common sense of the Universe.

"Dragon Sovereign, what do you want to borrow!?" He said in a cold voice during a gap in the battle.

He wanted to talk now, but Li Yu completely had no intention of responding.

He continued to shout: "If we continue to fight, we will attract the attention of the surrounding Dimensional Demon Gods. In the end, neither of us will be able to run away!"

"Although your Strength is stronger than mine, trying to take me down In a short while is also unlikely!"

Right at this moment, Li Yu suddenly retreated backward. The Crimson Eye also let out a sigh of relief and said: "We can talk..."

Halfway through his words, he suddenly paused. He only saw the mechanical arm of the Primordial Celestial Sovereign rotate, and the Holy Spear of Alnania, which was originally held forward, abruptly switched to a reverse grip.

The various structural centers of the Mechanical Body exerted force simultaneously. The entire Primordial Celestial Sovereign was like a continuously tightening bowstring. Massive power continuously surged forth, pouring into the mechanical arm.

The elbow of this mechanical arm even rapidly assembled into a huge propulsion device. The spewing flames even pierced through the Dimensional Wall, providing an unimaginable propulsive force.

The [Hawkeye Emblem] flashed and disappeared.

To some extent, this looked like an ancient throwing method.

For a Weapon of the level of the Holy Spear of Alnania, using it in this way was truly too bizarre.

However, although its exterior looked like a standard Melee Weapon, it was essentially a culmination of various cutting-edge Technology.

This gave the Crimson Eye a feeling of wanting to sneer, but for some reason, he simultaneously felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.

And this sense of crisis reached its peak when the massive Mechanical Body before him threw the Holy Spear of Alnania from its hand!

Rumble!

The dimensional world was completely torn apart. Wherever the Holy Spear of Alnania passed, everything was annihilated.

The Crimson Eye's vertical pupil contracted. This level of terrifying power completely exceeded his imagination!

Therefore, a life-threatening feeling lingered in his heart!

He subconsciously raised the trident to parry, but the Holy Spear of Alnania that had just left its hand shattered the trident in his hand in the next moment.

This scene didn't even give him time to be stunned before the power carried by the Holy Spear of Alnania abruptly surged into his body, wreaking havoc.

Boom!

This Flowing Light successively pierced through the Dimensional Walls of several dimensional worlds. In the dimensional worlds it passed through, all lifeforms saw a meteor arching across the firmament.

This meteor ultimately smashed into a relatively barren dimensional world. Energy dispersed, and the Void Collapsed.

The Crimson Eye was pierced. The Holy Spear of Alnania ran through his Corporeal Form and nailed him in the Void.

The shock in his vertical pupil still hadn't dissipated. Was this kind of power really something that could be unleashed at the Dimensional Demon God level?

Li Yu walked out from the tyrannical Void Turbulence. The Primordial Celestial Sovereign disassembled, revealing his main body inside. He chuckled lightly:

"Who said it couldn't be resolved In a short while?"

"I... I want to make a deal with you..." The Crimson Eye's Vital Signs rapidly dissipated.

The traces of his existence and his Information State were all being rapidly erased by the Holy Spear of Alnania.

However, under this strike, he still had the strength to speak, which was already very impressive.

"What deal?" Li Yu looked at him.

"I have already figured out some things about the path forward in Evolution. If you want to continue walking it, without this information of mine, you can never step into a higher level."

The Crimson Eye said rapidly. He didn't believe anyone could resist this temptation, especially a lifeform that had already seen the "Evolutionary Barrier."

Li Yu's expression became bizarre, and he didn't speak.

The Crimson Eye became somewhat anxious and said: "Individual Evolution can never succeed. The assistance of external objects is needed. This is my sincerity!"

"Do you want to be trapped at this level forever!?"

"Do you know how many things are needed?" Li Yu suddenly asked.

The Crimson Eye was stunned. He also wasn't sure how many were needed, but he knew for sure that the assistance of other things was required.

It was just that, looking at Li Yu's unsurprised expression, a guess that was hard for him to believe abruptly surfaced in his heart—

"You already knew!?"

Li Yu smiled and slowly floated in front of him, saying: "Otherwise, what did you think I was coming to borrow from you?"

"What you want is... the Root Core?" The Crimson Eye understood. No wonder when he said he wanted to talk just now, the other party had no reaction.

The Root Core was his life, the core produced when a Dimensional Demon God evolved to the apex.

It was precisely by relying on the Root Core that he could possess such powerful Strength without relying on a dimensional world.

"So that's how it is. You need the Root Core, and what I probably need is the Source Matter Body. The secrets of Evolution complement each other. So that's how it is..."

The Crimson Eye smiled miserably, but unfortunately, his life had reached its end.

"The Root Core is only one of them..." Li Yu shook his head, and then pulled out the Holy Spear of Alnania.

"To think there's still... then what's left is..." Before the Crimson Eye could finish his words, his Corporeal Form gradually turned into dust, scattering and fading away.

A resplendent and dense object was left behind on the spot.

At the same time, the combat fluctuations produced here had already spread to several dimensional worlds away.

And under the connection of the dimensional network, many Dimensional Demon Gods were rushing here from various directions.

The Devouring Archfiend, who had been overwhelmed recently, naturally wouldn't let go of any abnormal clues.

There was also the ruler of this Territory, one of the Four Great Demon Gods—Ruin!
