C1832 self-deception continued
"W-what?"
As Empyrean Blackrain heard that his Senior Apprentice Brother wanted to leave this Nightmare Pearl for him, he couldn't believe it for a moment.
This Nightmare Pearl had been coveted by Empyrean Blackrain for a long time. It was an extremely high quality and famous secret treasure among the demon race. It was the most suitable to be used by the great devil abilities to behead the three incarnations.
This Nightmare Pearl was something that belonged to his senior apprentice brother Empyrean Blacknether. Empyrean Blacknether was a veteran and was an existence that could compete with Empyrean Primordius. Empyrean Blackrain had previously gone to Empyrean Blacknether several times to obtain the Nightmare Pearl in order to break into the Daomerge Realm.
In addition to the dimensional barrier, he had suddenly seen the Nightmare Pearl. In his heart, he already had the intention of snatching it away from his own senior brother, and had even prepared himself for it. However, he had never expected that the Black Nightmare God would actually gift it to him.
But in the end, Empyrean Black Rain was still an old demon who had lived for many years. Even though his mind was a little chaotic, he did not reveal the slightest bit of it on his face and had quickly calmed down. He asked with a smile, "Senior Brother, could you be joking? "This is the Nightmare Pearl …"
"This item is useless to me. This time, Junior Apprentice Brother only needs to help me take a peek at the secrets of the Chaos Sovereign Realm when I'm about to fall apart. What's a single Nightmare Bead worth?"
The Black Rain Demon Sovereign's face was filled with excitement as he said gratefully, "Many thanks to Senior Brother for fulfilling my wish. I will do my best to help Senior Brother obtain his wish!"
"Well, that's for the best!"
The Black Nightmare Demon Sovereign's voice came from the Nightmare Pearl, and he continued, "The real reason you can control this region isn't because of this devil swamp. With our cultivations at such a level, how useful can one or two source magic marshes be? The real purpose is to use this region as a springboard and obtain the approval of the world's will source. This way, we can participate in the division and grand feast during the process of the collapse of the Righteous Heavens. That will be the time when we will truly see the light of day, do you understand? "
At this moment, Demon Marshall Blackrain's expression was one of shock and excitement. He said solemnly, "Understood, thank you Senior Brother for your explanation!"
The Black Nightmare Demon Sovereign said, "As long as we respond appropriately this time, and your luck isn't too bad, it's not like you don't have a chance to go a step further when the time comes. At that time, this Nightmare Pearl will coincidentally be of use!"
The Black Rain Demon Sovereign was sincere this time as he said, "Senior Brother is plotting from afar, something junior cannot hope to achieve!"
From within the Nightmare Pearl, the voice of the Black Nightmare Demon Sovereign sounded out once more, "As long as you know about this matter. After all, there are many people participating from my Demon race, and when the day comes and everything dissolves, we will all have a stake in each other's interests. At that time, it would be inconvenient for me to take care of you too much."
The Black Rain Demon Sovereign's face was filled with confidence as he said, "Don't worry, Senior. If I can't compete with others even at this level, what face do I have to have this Nightmare Pearl?"
"You can patrol this area. If you want to obtain the approval of the World Essence as soon as possible, you can start with the local mortals." I, on the other hand, would like to enter the Demonic Swamp first. I hope that the little cultivator from the Heaven-Revolving Star Realm has some background and can successfully enter the Great Luo Immortal Realm.
With that, the Nightmare Pearl slowly flew towards the demonic swamp, and a moment later, it disappeared into thin air.
When the Nightmare Pearl's trace disappeared through his spiritual sense, the excited and grateful expression on Demon Sovereign Blackrain's face gradually disappeared. His gaze towards the depths of the demonic swamp turned cold and vigilant.
At this moment, he reached out his hand and cut across the void that was originally empty. However, a few threads of something were cut off as it trembled.
At the same time, in the array formation laid down by Demon Sovereign Blackrain in the depths of the Source Demon Marsh, there was a slimy, tongue-like object that was constantly retracting and swaying in the void beside Ouyang Palin.
As this slippery object swayed, a faint voice could be heard from the void. The content of these voices seemed to be the conversation between the Black Nightmare Heavenly Sovereign and the Black Rain Devil Lord.
Blink Needle and Bull's Note were the two treasures that Ouyang Palin and Yang Xinyu had obtained from the ancient immortal cave they mistakenly entered.
One of the needles had been obtained by Yang Qingyu, and Ouyang Palin had taken away the long tongue. This was a long tongue like slippery item.
After being refined by Ouyang Palin, this pill could be used to repeat the words of everyone within the range of his divine sense.
Of course, in this area, cultivators could also use their divine sense to investigate other people's conversations, but it was easy for others to sense them. Furthermore, the person Ouyang Palin wanted to pry into was a Heavenly Master like the Black Rain Palace.
But with the help of her tongue, she didn't have to worry about this anymore. Although the scope of her scouting ability could only work within the range of her divine sense, it didn't actually have much to do with divine sense. As a result, the chances of it being found were very low.
However, it was clear that Ouyang Ting's adventure was worth it. As he repeated the words he had just spoken, he heard the conversation between the Black Rain Demon Sovereign and the Black Nightmare Sky Sovereign.
"Unfortunately, my cultivation is still too low, and I don't dare to fully activate this treasure. I'm also afraid of being discovered, so I could only hear a few words!"
Ouyang Palin's heart was filled with fear. Even if she could only hear the scattered conversations, the meaning behind their words was enough to send chills down his spine.
The thought of becoming a cauldron that would become the carrier of Empyrean Blacknightmare to descend upon this world made Ouyang Palin wish she could escape thousands of miles away right now.
However, reason told him that doing this was no different from courting death. He wasn't Yang Junshan. Even if it was Yang Junshan himself, he wouldn't have been able to escape from an Acupoint Charging Empyrean in the Golden Immortal Realm.2
However, without waiting for Ouyang to come up with a solution, the crisis followed once again.
As the sound of string breaking echoed through the air, the tongue that was moving around in Ouyang Palin's ears began to spasm. The soft tongue was constantly shaking.
"We've been discovered!"
Ouyang Palin's face paled. He could almost imagine just how angry the Black Rain Demon Sovereign would be. In the next moment, it would appear in front of him and crush him to death with a finger!
No, no, he won't kill me. He still needs to use my body as the carrier for the Black Nightmare Sovereign to descend upon this world.
That's not right, they should still need me to raise my cultivation to the Great Net Immortal Realm. Although I don't know the reason, but it's probably because the higher my cultivation, the more powerful my strength will be after Empyrean Black Nightmare possessed!
In that moment, countless thoughts began to play out in Ouyang Palin's mind. But in truth, enough time had passed for Demon Marshall Blackrain to travel back and forth from the Source Demon Marsh several times, but he still hadn't appeared.
What was the reason for this?
Ouyang Palin's heart was beating like a drum. He was well aware that the Black Rain Demon Sovereign must have sensed his prying eyes, but why didn't he expose it?
Did he not put his tricks in his eyes at all, or did he have another goal?
In a split-second, Ouyang Palin recalled a few words she had heard through her flapping tongue, and then she seemed to realize something.
Perhaps, his chance of survival was right here!
Now he could only take a gamble. Since he was already in a hopeless situation, he would definitely die if he did not gamble. If he gambled, he might have a chance of survival.
Ouyang Palin stretched out her hand and quickly withdrew her tongue into her sleeve. She then began to forcefully compress her mind, forcing herself to begin cultivating in order to make the final preparations to break through to the Great Luo Immortal Realm.
