Chapter 1522 - 636: Retreat or Not (Part 3)

"He’s not a Truth Creation; he’s my friend." Shen Ye explained.

"You can’t fool me." The Eight-legged Life-devouring Demon Spirit said.

"Alright, let’s bring the topic back—feel free to make trouble for the Ogres, I have no interest whatsoever." Shen Ye said.

On the other side.

The White Emperor tossed something, and said in a low voice:

"Move quickly."

The cat and dog leaped out, racing along the wall.

They quickly caught up with a group of Ogres.

"No."

The cat and dog spoke human words.

"Keep looking." The White Emperor said.

The cat and dog darted into a hidden narrow tunnel, running all the way to the end.

Three Ogres were hiding there.

The leader was that fat one.

"Wait a minute—he was already dead by then, I wasn’t the first to attack him—"

The fat one shouted in a hurry.

The White Emperor tossed out a bronze figure to block two Ogres while swiftly forming a Spell Seal.

Boom!

The fat Ogre who betrayed Shen Ye exploded.

At the same moment.

On the metro.

Cassandra, the Soul Capturing Net, tensed her expression, activating the Destiny Line, binding the Ogre’s soul, which flew instantly into the depths of the Art of Destiny.

Her hand seal changed—

"Exterminate."

The soul shattered.

From this moment on.

No one knew that the Seed of Truth Emergence was actually traded to Shen Ye by the Ogre!

On the metro.

"What is your friend up to?"

The Eight-legged Life-devouring Demon Spirit asked with a hint of suspicion, full of killing intent.

"I had a personal grudge with the Ogres—one guy betrayed me, now he’s dead—the other Ogres are yours to deal with." Shen Ye said.

The several arms behind the Eight-legged Life-devouring Demon Spirit kept changing spell seals.

"It seems to be true..."

It whispered.

"There’s absolutely no falsehood." Shen Ye said.

"But the situation has changed," the Eight-legged Life-devouring Demon Spirit said in a low voice, "You immediately killed an Ogre after I made my demands, so now, my demands must increase again."

"Speak." Shen Ye said.

"Give me the corpse of the Umbrella Demon, I need to consume it."

"Deal."

Shen Ye agreed readily.

—This was to buy time for Annie!

Yet the Eight-legged Life-devouring Demon Spirit still did not move.

It stared at Shen Ye, asking:

"How many Truth Creations make up your Mysterious Identity?"

Shen Ye did not answer.

He looked at the other quietly, maintaining a long silence.

No matter what he said, the other might deduce information, and the Truth Creation pertains to his Mysterious Identity, which is the biggest secret.

"If you don’t speak—then I’ll kill your friend, and we’ll be even."

"It’s the guy who just went out to kill the Ogres."

"I’ll go kill him."

The Eight-legged Life-devouring Demon Spirit was about to leave after speaking but suddenly halted its Physique.

At the moment it spoke those words, the "Master of White Impermanence" above Shen Ye’s head blurred.

Blurring.

Meant something was happening.

Shen Ye’s blade had already been drawn, blocking its path to leave.

"Could it be... after you finish off the Umbrella Demon, you still want to fight me?"

The Eight-legged Life-devouring Demon Spirit said mockingly.

It released its full power fluctuations, beginning to suppress Shen Ye entirely.

But Shen Ye did not yield any further.

"While I was fighting the Umbrella Demon, you hid and watched; now if I fight you, who do you think is hiding in the dark, preparing to deal with you?"

Shen Ye said.

"You’re exhausted—with a fight against me now, you’ll die." The Eight-legged Life-devouring Demon Spirit said.

"Then let’s try." Shen Ye said.

"Do you dare to try?" The Eight-legged Life-devouring Demon Spirit sneered.

"A sneaky bastard asking for the sky after I finish a fight, do you think you’ve won? Bah!" Shen Ye spat at it.

"Do you want to die?"

"Bastard, stop being self-righteous; come on, let’s fight."

This was humiliation.

Shen Ye abandoned any retreat.

—He was determined to fight!

The Eight-legged Life-devouring Demon Spirit also realized this.

It hesitated.

Yes.

The other party was devouring this Historical Fragment.

Such an action would attract entities from all camps to investigate the situation.

Typically, as long as it was a strange life devouring a Historical Fragment, entities from other camps would only watch from afar and dare not intervene further.

But—

If two strange lives were locked in a life-and-death struggle, that would be different.

Strategy.

Shen Ye’s strategy was to resolve to fight with all his might.

Thus, the pressure was transferred to the Eight-legged Life-devouring Demon Spirit.

Could it truly withstand the various watchful eyes, kill Shen Ye, and then face the factions observing this Historical Fragment?

In an instant.

The phantom limbs behind the Eight-legged Life-devouring Demon Spirit all stopped.

In this situation, there’s no need to calculate further.

It said in a deep voice:

"Fool, this is your court of death."

"It doesn’t matter if I die, as long as I can drag you down with me." Shen Ye said.

The two locked eyes.

Shen Ye did not yield a single step, gripping the You Huang blade tightly.

Just now—

When the entry blurred for a moment, it was because he had an inspiration.

—"White Impermanence" holds such a high regard on the Other Shore, feared by countless powers.

Its power is surely extraordinary!

Then—

What if it’s merged with my Blade Technique "Instant Slash"?

Will Causality change?

His mind prompted, the fusion immediately began!

"You activated the entry ’Mandala Uroboros’, causing the Mysterious Blade Technique ’White Impermanence’ to merge with the Influence Law Blade Skill ’Instant Slash’."

"The current Blade Technique has undergone Super Evolution."

"Congratulations."

"A higher-level Emergent Blade Technique has been generated, its name is:"

"Three Springs Radiance."

"After this battle ends, if you survive, the entry ’White Impermanence’ will gain an even greater and widespread renown, possessing new Power of the Entry."

"Please engage with all your strength!"
