C732 I Don't Understand
"Young Master, this senior is truly terrifying."
In Tianluo Secret Realm, Green Snake said with lingering fear.
Spirit Rhinoceros King was just too powerful. Even though he was standing there, he didn't do anything. The pressure emitted from his body was enough to make Green Snake unable to breathe.
That was a completely unequal pressure. Green Snake had no ability to resist at all.
The fact that she was able to hold on and not escape was already her limit, even though she had already decided in her heart that if Lin Cheng encountered any danger, she would be willing to die in battle for him.
However, in fact, when she saw Spirit Rhinoceros King, she was shocked to find out. Even if she wasn't afraid of death, she was willing to risk her life for Lin Cheng. However, when faced with the unfathomable Spirit Rhinoceros King, she couldn't muster up any thoughts of resisting.
This was no longer a question of whether she had the courage or not. It was a fear that originated from the Elemental Spirit and the spiritual sense. She couldn't control or resist it.
"Don't worry, it doesn't seem to have any ill intentions towards us."
Lin Cheng smiled and comforted her.
He could roughly understand Green Snake's feelings. Green Snake had just broken through to the Divine Ability Stage. Although he could be considered a powerhouse, that was only for ordinary cultivators.
When facing a powerhouse like Spirit Rhinoceros King, what Green Snake had to bear was not just the huge pressure of his realm and strength. More importantly, the rules of heaven and earth in this mystic realm were under Spirit Rhinoceros King's control. This was like an ant facing the pressure of the Laws of Heaven and Earth. It was a pressure that he could not resist at all.
How could an ant withstand the pressure of heaven and earth?
Therefore, Lin Cheng didn't blame Green Snake for lying on the ground with a pale face. Instead, he understood what was going on.
Green Snake mustered up his courage and stood up. However, he found that his legs were still trembling involuntarily. Although Lin Cheng comforted her, she still felt ashamed in her heart. Originally, she thought that after breaking through to the Divine Ability Stage, she would no longer be a burden to Lin Cheng. At least, when she needed to put her life on the line, she might be able to play a role.
But now, she knew that the opponent Lin Cheng was facing right now... He was no longer an Incarnation Stage or Divine Ability Stage, but an even more terrifying realm. Her strength was far from enough. She had to make another breakthrough. At least, she needed to reach her wife's current realm in order to help Lin Cheng.
"You have done enough."
Zhu Ziqiao patted Green Snake's hand and comforted him.
Compared to Lin Cheng, Zhu Ziqiao's mind was more meticulous. She could naturally feel Green Snake's guilt and uneasiness. But she also understood that Green Snake had actually done well enough. At least, when facing Spirit Rhinoceros King, Green Snake did not escape.
Compared to Green Snake, Zhu Ziqiao was more aware of Spirit Rhinoceros King's terror. She also understood what it meant to be an expert of Spirit Rhinoceros King's realm.
Especially in Tianluo Secret Realm, when any ordinary cultivator faced Spirit Rhinoceros King. This was the pressure of the rules. It could even be said that the difference between a spiritual sense and an Elemental Spirit was like a herbivorous beast facing a ferocious beast. Its first reaction was to escape. This was the instinct of a living creature.
She and Green Snake were like this when they faced Spirit Rhinoceros King. She didn't run away because she and Lin Cheng had been through life and death together. Her will and determination wouldn't be overshadowed by fear.
Furthermore, she was now a Peak of Divine Ability Stage, and she couldn't even take another step forward. Without trying to control the rules of the world, she had almost reached her limit. She was actually only a step away from becoming a half-step Supreme Elder.
This allowed her to be more composed than Green Snake in the face of Spirit Rhinoceros King's pressure. Although the pressure wouldn't be reduced by much, at the very least, she had a certain degree of resistance.
However, Green Snake didn't escape because he was loyal to Lin Cheng.
This was the most valuable part.
It was also the part that Zhu Ziqiao felt the most gratified about.
For Green Snake to be able to do this, it was not in vain that Lin Cheng risked his life to control the rules of heaven and earth for her. This made Zhu Ziqiao acknowledge Green Snake even more.
If it was said that Zhu Ziqiao previously did not really treat Green Snake as Lin Cheng's maid but as her companion, after this encounter, Zhu Ziqiao had completely acknowledged Green Snake in her heart. She even treated her as a family member.
"Lin Cheng, the devil that Spirit Rhinoceros King mentioned, could it be the one you mentioned before?" After comforting Green Snake, Zhu Ziqiao looked at Lin Cheng again.
"I also have the same guess, but only Spirit Rhinoceros King knows if it is true or not."
Lin Cheng shook his head, and then transmitted his voice to Zhu Ziqiao's spiritual sense, "What I am more interested in is why Spirit Rhinoceros King is so tolerant of me."
The Tianluo Secret Realm was under the control of Spirit Rhinoceros King, even though he didn't do anything to him. Lin Cheng was still unable to determine whether this Spirit Rhinoceros King was a friend or foe. Therefore... He had to use the spiritual sense to transmit his voice as much as possible while speaking.
Zhu Ziqiao couldn't help but frown when she heard this.
She was also very curious about this. Obviously, Spirit Rhinoceros King knew that Lin Cheng had stolen its Red Flame Fruit, but he didn't punish Lin Cheng. He even seemed to have expectations for Lin Cheng. This really made them doubt him.
"Could it be that because you obtained the Blue Fire, Spirit Rhinoceros King mistakenly thought that Pill King had recognized you?" Zhu Ziqiao suddenly thought of a possibility, "Or perhaps, the fact that you were able to obtain the Blue Fire could already be considered as the disciple of supreme Pill King. Is that why Spirit Rhinoceros King is so tolerant of you? "
If that was the case, then Spirit Rhinoceros King wasn't being lenient to Lin Cheng, but was giving face to Supreme Pill King of Ancient Times.
Lin Cheng was startled for a moment, then he said thoughtfully, "This possibility might exist. However, from what that Spirit Rhinoceros King said, I feel like it doesn't know that supreme Pill King. Perhaps he only heard about supreme Pill King back then. If he is tolerant of me like this, it seems like... "
At this point, Lin Cheng paused for a moment before saying, "Little girl, there's actually one more thing that you might have overlooked."
Zhu Ziqiao immediately asked, "What?"
Lin Cheng said, "This Spirit Rhinoceros King, what is the relationship between him and those Most Powerful Person in Ancient Times?"
Zhu Ziqiao couldn't help but be slightly startled when she heard this, but her eyes immediately widened as if she had thought of something. She almost cried out in shock, "Little thief, you are suspecting..."
She did not continue speaking until this point. However, the shock and shock in her eyes was enough to show the shock in her heart.
It was as if she had thought of something shocking.
"That's not it."
Lin Cheng shook his head. He knew what Zhu Ziqiao wanted to say. Obviously, Zhu Ziqiao was suspecting whether this Spirit Rhinoceros King had something to do with the demons in this secret realm.
Actually, Lin Cheng had the same suspicion just now, but after thinking about it carefully, he eliminated it.
Initially, Lin Cheng thought that Spirit Rhinoceros King might be the most terrifying Demonic Beast in this secret realm. But at that time, he thought that Spirit Rhinoceros King might have been born after the great war in Ancient Times. Because the war in Ancient Times was extremely intense, especially in the domain of Tianluo Secret Realm. He was afraid that it was even more intense. Otherwise, why would the Tianluo Secret Realm appear?
In this way, what kind of creature could survive such a war?
That was the life-and-death battle between the Most Powerful Person of Ancient Times and the Great Devil. It was a world-shattering battle, and the spatial zone was shattered. This was how the Tianluo Secret Realm appeared.
If Spirit Rhinoceros King was born at that time, or if he was already an expert at that time, it would be very difficult for him to avoid that disaster, let alone survive until now.
However, after conversing with Spirit Rhinoceros King, Lin Cheng couldn't help but feel puzzled.
Because, from Spirit Rhinoceros King's words, Lin Cheng found out that he actually knew about Pill King. At the same time, he seemed to be very familiar with the cultivator of the Homo Clan. For example, Spirit Rhinoceros King said that the Homo Clan was a rogue. Obviously, this wasn't something that came out of nowhere. It was definitely before Lin Cheng. They had even met the Homo Clan before the people of Unification Sect came in.
Spirit Rhinoceros King even seemed to be very familiar with the Most Powerful Person in the Ancient Times.
This obviously contradicted Lin Cheng's previous guess.
If Spirit Rhinoceros King had really seen or knew about the Most Powerful Person in Ancient Times, it meant that... At least, Spirit Rhinoceros King was born during the era when the Most Powerful Person and the devils fought. Since it existed in Tianluo Secret Realm, it meant... Back when the Most Powerful Person and the devils fought to the death, Spirit Rhinoceros King was here.
How did it escape from the catastrophe?
Could it be that Spirit Rhinoceros King already possessed an extremely powerful strength at that time?
If that was the case, then Spirit Rhinoceros King's strength was truly too terrifying. If that was the case, why was it trapped in Tianluo Secret Realm?
With his strength, it would only be a matter of a thought if he wanted to leave!
However, if that wasn't the case, he was afraid that there would be another explanation.
Lin Cheng recalled the news he had heard back then - there was a devil in Tianluo Secret Realm.0
If... This Spirit Rhinoceros King was a devil?
When this thought popped up in Lin Cheng's mind, he couldn't help but be startled. However, he immediately dispelled this suspicion because from all the signs, this was impossible.
When Lin Cheng was facing Spirit Rhinoceros King just now, he didn't sense the cold qi of a devil at all.
Of course, this might be because he didn't have enough Cultivation Level. Even if Spirit Rhinoceros King was a devil, it was possible that Lin Cheng wouldn't be able to sense him if he had a secret technique or some other unique means to conceal his Qi.
But if he couldn't sense it, wouldn't Sect Master of Unification Sect be able to sense it as well?
Lin Cheng knew that when the Tianluo Secret Realm was opened for the first time... The experts of the Unification Sect had come to investigate once. At that time... It was said that Sect Master of Unification Sect had come personally. If this Spirit Rhinoceros King was a devil... It would be very difficult for Sect Master of the Unification Sect to not notice him.
