Lin Cheng had never underestimated any opponent or enemy, let alone the devils.
He and Zhu Ziqiao had seen with their own eyes what the people who were infected by the Devil Qi looked like, and how crazy they were. Especially that kind of madness that almost made them lose their consciousness, it really made them feel cold all over their bodies.
Furthermore, in the countless legends, the Most Powerful Person in Ancient Times had a fierce battle with the devils. And in the secret realm that he had seen before, there was only a trace of the devil's consciousness. Since it was so terrifying, there was no need to mention a great devil.
Therefore, when Lin Cheng heard the news about the great devil from Spirit Rhinoceros King, he became extremely vigilant in his heart. He even regarded this great devil as the most powerful and terrifying enemy in his life!
Spirit Rhinoceros King was already so powerful. How powerful was the great devil that he attached importance to?
However, even so, Lin Cheng wasn't afraid. Instead, he regarded this as an excellent opportunity because he was certain that the devil was under some kind of restriction. If it wasn't for that, Spirit Rhinoceros King would have been able to survive for such a long time in this secret realm. At the very least, it could prove that the devil was definitely weaker than it.
More importantly, Lin Cheng wasn't too weak. If he was still the Divine Ability Stage cultivator that had just entered the Tianluo Secret Realm, even if he was a Divine Ability Stage in the outside world, he could be considered a powerful expert. But in fact, in front of a true expert like Spirit Rhinoceros King, a Divine Ability Stage was nothing.
But now, Lin Cheng's strength had increased tremendously, and he had even stepped into the ranks of half-step Almighties. His combat strength had also increased by countless times. Under such circumstances, Lin Cheng was confident that he could fight that devil.
Even though the two disciples of Unification Sect described the devil to be extremely terrifying, it didn't weaken Lin Cheng's confidence in the slightest.
Because the strength of these two cultivators was too weak, their description couldn't accurately describe the strength of the devil. Instead, their actions proved Lin Cheng's speculation.
If the Great Devil in this secret realm wasn't restricted, then Junior Brother Lu wouldn't be the only one who was affected by the Devil Qi. In front of an expert, these two mere Incarnation Stage cultivator... How could they possibly escape?
However, it was still uncertain what kind of restriction had been placed on that devil.
This was also one of the reasons why Lin Cheng wanted to investigate.
"You two only found out that your junior brother was infected by the Devil Qi, but you didn't see the true body of the devil?" While Lin Cheng was pondering, Zhu Ziqiao asked.
... "Yes, we were just thinking of escaping..." These two men felt a little awkward. As disciples of the Unification Sect, they were in such a sorry state and panicked state. This really made them feel embarrassed.
However, in front of Lin Cheng and Zhu Ziqiao, they didn't dare to hide anything. Furthermore, they were devils after all. Even the sect was afraid of them, let alone the two of them, Junior Cultivator.
"Then how can you be sure that you have encountered devils?" Zhu Ziqiao asked again.
"This..."
The two of them hesitated for a moment. Senior Brother Zhang then said, "Because when we were in the sect, we saw a senior brother being infected by the Devil Qi. It was just that it was not so serious, but it looked very similar to Junior Brother Lu."
Male Cultivator also added, "There was a rumor in the past that there was an evil devil in Tianluo Secret Realm. Besides, if it wasn't an evil devil, there was nothing that could make Junior Brother Lu look like that..."
As if recalling his junior brother's terrifying appearance, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva with difficulty. His face couldn't help but turn pale.
"When you passed by that place, didn't you notice anything unusual?" Zhu Ziqiao asked again.
"No... We did not expect such a thing to happen and we were looking for resources. The three of us walked separately, and there was a distance between us. We didn't realize it until Junior Brother Lu went crazy. " Senior Brother Zhang said.
Zhu Ziqiao couldn't help but frown when she heard him. She looked at Lin Cheng. The two of them only saw their junior brother go crazy, but they didn't see the devil with their own eyes. It was impossible to tell how their junior brother went crazy, even though they knew that he had been infected by the Devil Qi. Moreover, what they said might not be the truth.
"Little thief, what do you think?"
Zhu Ziqiao communicated with Lin Cheng's spiritual sense, "These two people have obviously been frightened. What they said might not be true."
From her senses, she was sure that these two were not lying. However, this did not mean that their judgment was right. Perhaps these two people really thought that their junior brother had been infected by the Devil Qi, but whether or not that Junior Brother Lu had gone mad was because of this reason. Right now, there was no way to confirm it.
Lin Cheng pondered for a moment and said, "No matter what, I have to go and take a look first to confirm."
In fact, Lin Cheng believed that the two of them were right because he was different from Zhu Ziqiao. He had been to Tianluo Secret Realm once before and was quite familiar with this place.
Although he had not been able to thoroughly explore this secret realm at that time, he had not even explored a large part of it. However, from the experience he had from the last time he came here, he could tell that there were not many Demonic Beasts in this secret realm. Most of them were just ordinary wild beasts.
Moreover, even if there were really Demonic Beasts, just like Spirit Rhinoceros King, or Spirit Rhinoceros King's disciples and grand-disciples, these Demonic Beasts wouldn't be able to make an Incarnation Stage cultivator go crazy.2
Although the description of these two men was vague, Lin Cheng believed that they must have encountered some kind of evil devil. No matter how bad it was, it must have been some kind of item that was contaminated by the Devil Qi.
However, it was still too early to talk about these things. As for what exactly had happened, he had to personally go and take a look to find out.
Zhu Ziqiao nodded her head and said, "Alright, let them lead the way. If you find that something is wrong, promise me that you won't force yourself and will immediately return."
Actually, she also knew that based on the description of these two Unification Sect disciples, that junior brother of theirs might have been infected by the Devil Qi, but she was still worried in her heart. After all, this was a secret realm, and it was formed by the Most Powerful Person of Ancient Times and the Great Devil. They had yet to stand at the peak of this mystic realm. Here... Their strength was not enough to allow them to run amok.
There was also a huge risk involved, so she had to be careful.
"Let's go."
Lin Cheng said to the two disciples of Unification Sect, "I think you won't dare to stay here. Lead the way."
The two disciples couldn't help but blush. Indeed, they wouldn't dare to stay here. Otherwise, if Lin Cheng and the other two left, Junior Brother Lu would be able to catch up to them. With their strength, no one knew if they would have a chance to escape.
However, Lin Cheng had spoken so bluntly in front of them, causing them to feel embarrassed. Furthermore, Lin Cheng had asked them to lead the way to the place where the devil was. Wouldn't that be even more terrifying?
"Senior... Lin, we just arrived there by accident. We were too panicked when we were fleeing. We might not be able to find it again..."
"What? You don't dare to go there?"
Without waiting for Senior Brother Zhang to finish his words, Green Snake couldn't help but sneer and asked with a sarcastic tone.
Senior Brother Zhang suddenly felt stifled. He opened his mouth but didn't say anything.
"If you have any requests, you can say them." Lin Cheng glanced at them but didn't ridicule them. Not everyone had the courage to fight, let alone face the devils. It was already considered pretty good that these two came to inform him of this news.
Although Lin Cheng knew that these two people probably wanted him to deal with their frenzied junior brother, this news was still what he needed.
"We... We want to leave Tianluo Secret Realm..." Male Cultivator, surnamed Luo, looked at Lin Cheng carefully and said.
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Lin Cheng couldn't help but be slightly surprised. He immediately reacted. Clearly, these two people had suffered quite a great shock. They didn't want to be caught by Junior Brother Lu, but they didn't dare to lead the way to the place where the devil was. They only wanted to escape from the dangerous place in their eyes.
"Senior, I know that Junior Brother Luo's request is a bit rash." Senior Brother Zhang thought that Lin Cheng had gotten angry, so he hurriedly cupped his fists and bowed, "Senior, please forgive us. We are merely Incarnation Stage Junior Cultivator. In front of Senior, we are just like ants. We really don't have the ability to provoke the devils. Senior, please show mercy! "
"If you want to leave, what about that Junior Brother Lu of yours?" Zhu Ziqiao asked.
... "" Their expressions were somewhat ugly but they did not speak.
Zhu Ziqiao furrowed her brows. It was obvious that these two were planning to give up on their Junior Brother Lu just like that. Such an act was really shameless to her.
"I have disappointed all of you. I'm afraid I won't be able to satisfy this request of yours."
Lin Cheng shook his head and said, "I might be able to break open the Spatial Barrier in the secret realm, but now is not the right time. You can choose to stay here or lead the way."
These two people knew that he could break open the Spatial Barrier, but they did not know. When Lin Cheng came in earlier, it was only because he was lucky that he was able to do it again. He might not be able to guarantee his success.
Of course, it was not that difficult for Lin Cheng to break the Spatial Barrier now. It could even be said that it was a piece of cake, but now was not the right time.
Lin Cheng had already touched the threshold of half-step Almighty, but the rules of heaven and earth inside and outside the secret realm were slightly different. Once he left the secret realm, he might need to break through immediately. He had to be prepared.
Hearing this, the two of them showed disappointment on their faces, but Lin Cheng didn't agree. They had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree to lead the way for Lin Cheng.
