C738 Confidence
"Girl, your speculation is indeed possible."
Lin Cheng said, "However, the possibility isn't very high. That evil devil might really be very powerful. But if it's so powerful that even Spirit Rhinoceros King can't suppress it, I'm afraid we won't be able to cultivate in peace for a long time. How can those two Unification Sect disciples escape from Junior Brother Lu's mouth?"
Zhu Ziqiao's guess was too shocking.
The possibility of this happening is true. The devils are very powerful, causing Spirit Rhinoceros King to feel troubled. That's why he came looking for them, hoping that they could help him.
However, perhaps Spirit Rhinoceros King also knew the fear of the Homo Clan's cultivator towards the devils. If he told them the details, perhaps they wouldn't dare to accept Spirit Rhinoceros King's invitation even more. Therefore, he only said a few vague words.
If he was interested, Spirit Rhinoceros King might tell him the truth. However, if he only heard the word 'Great Devil', he would be terrified. It would be difficult for him to stay calm and wouldn't be able to help Spirit Rhinoceros King. What about the truth? It didn't matter whether he said it or not.
However, in Lin Cheng's opinion, Zhu Ziqiao's speculation was a little too cautious. At the same time, more importantly, Zhu Ziqiao had yet to touch the threshold of half-step Almighty. Therefore, she was unable to keenly sense the changes in the natural laws of this secret realm.
If that devil was really this powerful and made Spirit Rhinoceros King feel that it was very difficult to deal with, it was imaginable how powerful this devil was.
It was powerful enough to fight against Spirit Rhinoceros King!
However, judging from Lin Cheng's understanding of the natural law in this secret realm, if a great battle broke out in this mystic realm, it's very likely that the arcane realm will be torn apart in a very short period of time, or even shattered!
At the very least, even if Spirit Rhinoceros King and the Great Devil did not erupt with all their might and were only probing each other, there was no risk of the secret realm collapsing. However, the rules of heaven and earth in this secret realm would definitely change.
This was because, without a doubt, at Spirit Rhinoceros King's realm, the rules of heaven and earth were already under his control, and it was very likely that there was more than one rule of heaven and earth.
If that was the case, if the devil wanted to compete with Spirit Rhinoceros King... However, Lin Cheng didn't notice any changes in the rules of heaven and earth in the secret realm. This indicated that even if the devil had become stronger, it wouldn't have become stronger recently.
"But have you thought about it? Spirit Rhinoceros King wasn't as powerful as he was from the beginning. He definitely didn't think he was a supreme being in Ancient Times. Otherwise, how could he have kept this devil until now?"
Zhu Ziqiao said, "If this devil was recovering slowly because of its serious injuries in the beginning, it would have been a long time ago. Spirit Rhinoceros King also gradually became stronger after such a long period of time. The two of them were evenly matched. Perhaps Spirit Rhinoceros King is only slightly stronger, but he is unable to kill that great devil in one fell swoop. This possibility exists as well."
Lin Cheng seemed to be lost in thought. After a moment, he shook his head. He said, "Girl, you forgot one thing. When the Tianluo Secret Realm was opened for the first time, the people of the Unification Sect had come in before, and one of them was the Top Expert of the Unification Sect. If Spirit Rhinoceros King really wants to use us to deal with the Great Devil, then why didn't he join forces with the experts of Unification Sect at that time? "
Currently, Lin Cheng had already touched the threshold of half-step Almighty. However... He knew that he still couldn't compare with the Top Expert of the Unification Sect. He knew it from Gu Yuanhua of the Longevity Sect. In fact, there were powerful beings in the ten big sects of Dongzhou, but these powerful beings wouldn't attack them easily.
Without a doubt, the Sect Master of the Unification Sect was naturally the Top Expert. It was very likely that he was a powerful being.
If Spirit Rhinoceros King and the Sect Master of Unification Sect joined forces, how terrifying would the power unleashed be? It was imaginable, unless the devil had already recovered its supreme grade strength. Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to withstand the joint attack of Spirit Rhinoceros King and Sect Master from the Unification Sect.
Lin Cheng believed that the devil had never recovered to its supreme grade. Otherwise, how could Sect Master of Unification Sect allow so many disciples of his sect to search for treasures with such ease?
Therefore, Lin Cheng was almost certain that the possibility Zhu Ziqiao was talking about did not exist.
That devil wasn't as scary as he had imagined.
This meant that Spirit Rhinoceros King wasn't trying to use him for anything. This was also the reason why he had made up his mind to find out the truth about that devil from the very beginning.
As long as that devil hadn't reached the supreme realm, he and Zhu Ziqiao would have the ability to fight back with their current strength.
"I hope so."
After listening to what Lin Cheng said, Zhu Ziqiao also realized that what Lin Cheng said made sense. However, the worry in her heart didn't decrease by much. After all, that was a devil, an existence that could fight a supreme being in Ancient Times.
Lin Cheng comforted her, "Little girl, don't worry. If that great devil is really too powerful, I won't seek my own death."
After a slight pause, he continued, "Actually, there is a saying that makes sense. That devil might be even stronger than before."
"What did you sense?" Zhu Ziqiao was shocked and immediately asked.
"No, it's just a feeling." Lin Cheng shook his head and said, "However, as long as we are more careful, we can deal with it easily."
"You must be careful."2
Zhu Ziqiao was worried and reminded again, but she did not stop Lin Cheng.
Fighting with the devil might be a must. It wasn't just to temper one's combat strength. More importantly, there was still the existence of the devil in Nine-prefecture Continent. Furthermore, it was very likely that he had broken through the suppression. If that was the case... Whether it was the outside world or the secret realm, it was no longer a paradise.
The human cultivator would have to face the Great Devil sooner or later. Either he killed the Great Devil or he would be killed by the Great Devil.
Just like the long and bitter war in Ancient Times, the human cultivator could no longer be avoided!
It was precisely because she understood this logic that she supported Lin Cheng's decision. She didn't even stop Green Snake from following them, but she couldn't be rash.
The two of them raised their vigilance and continued forward.
However, after an hour, neither of them noticed any trace of the evil devils. They didn't even notice any abnormalities.
"Are you sure it's nearby?" Zhu Ziqiao frowned, "Why is there no sign of it?"
Lin Cheng did not reply. Instead, he looked forward and frowned.
"Little girl, it seems like we really have to pay a visit to Spirit Rhinoceros King!" A moment later, he suddenly said.
"What?"
