The Truth is Deeper than One's Thoughts
🕑 Added 2024-04-09 16:55:47 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 205 ---
After unleashing one of his most decent Profound Skills, Yu Long sighed as he saw the cleared horizon, "Aih, it's so lonely at the top."
He looked down on the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign, who floated calmly on the ocean's surface, and shook his head because even True Devil didn't put up much fight.
Honestly, Yu Long expected more from someone who had become the host of Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations.
"Well, I expected too much from him. The Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign is already so old and weakened due to the Evil God's sealings. He was lucky enough to live this long for me to cleanse him."
"Don't you think so, Jin?" Yu Long raised the silverish-black sword in his left hand.
"Jin?" The Devil Prince responded in confusion.
"That's your new name. After all, you're my dog now."
"..." The Devil Prince.
"This... I don't think this was appropriate." He responded awkwardly.
"I thought we had an agreement." Yu Long's lips curved into a wicked smile.
"I've saved your father already."
"What's the matter, are you perhaps not like your new name? Do you like little black or doggy better?"
"I... Thank you for granting me a new name. Jin is fine, my lord." In the end, the Devil Prince could only accept his fate. Yu Long saved his father already, so he must keep his other side of the bargain.
At least Jin is way better than Little Black and Doggy. As the feared Devil Prince, he wanted to keep some face in the future.
Yu Long glanced at the azure sword in his other hand and said, "Zhiyun, you can return to the Divine Phoenix Empire. Everything should be fine around here now."
"Um, can I accompany you instead, Master?" Ling Zhiyun responded with a hopeful tone. "Princess Wanhu is asleep, so I have nothing to do."
"Is she really?"
"Yes, after eating some Divine Crystals you handed me, Princess Wanhu fell asleep. She said the crystals are crunchy and pop in her mouth, which she likes to eat again."
"We still have many Divine Crystals. Let Wanhu eat more, then." Yu Long nodded in understanding.
"I don't think that was a wise choice, Master. Although Princess Wanhu likes it, we cannot waste so much Divine Crystals because they are basically extinct resources in this era."
"Senior Yuyan and I have planned to create a workshop for Princess Wanhu's alternative food source."
"Wait, don't tell me you planned to create Divine Weapons only to feed her?" Yu Long was speechless.
The azure sword shook slightly, "We don't have much choice..."
"Actually, creating Divine Weapons was easy for me." She proudly added after that. "The Sword Spirit God Clan has a secret technique that allows us to refine rare materials into sub-swords."
"I can second that, my lord." The Devil Prince suddenly joined in.
"In fact, their ability to refine Artifacts is top-notch in the Primordial Era of Gods."
"It's one of many reasons why the Devil Race wants to wipe the Sword Spirit God Clan first..."
"You... This aura, you're from Jiang Chen from that hateful Eternal Night Devil Clan!" Ling Zhiyun grumbled coldly. "No wonder I felt an annoying presence from that enemy earlier."
"You and the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign used the Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations to slaughter my family... No, you slaughtered everyone, Gods and Devils, back then!"
The Devil Prince snorted, "I go by the name of Jin now. I've become my lord's loyal subordinate. Remember that!"
"As for your accusation, if your God Mo E didn't force us, we wouldn't be desperate to use Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations!"
"You're just a dog!" Ling Zhiyun berated immediately.
Yu Long frowned and caught some stray information, "Hold on, what did you mean by the Eternal Night Devil Clan used the Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations, and Mo E forced the Devil Clan to use it?"
"Don't trust him, Master! Devil Race is all liars..." Ling Zhiyun opened her mouth first. "And yes, the Eternal Night Devil Clan get their hand on the Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations and put an end to the Primordial Era."
"I'm telling the truth! Mo E killed and destroyed many Devil Clans with the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword, which forced us to retaliate with the Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations."
"He's so cunning that we couldn't catch him under our noses."
"As a matter of fact, my father became extremely enraged that he sacrificed himself to become the Heavenly Treasure's host."
"He sealed me before the Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations' Poison could affect me."
"After that, my father fought against the Evil God, and everything went blank for me... I didn't expect to meet him here."
"It seems the truth is deeper than I thought." Yu Long looked down on the fainted Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign. "Well, we can talk this out slowly."
"Zhiyun, you can stay."
"Thank you, Master~!"
Although Ling Zhiyun was dissatisfied with the Devil Prince's disgusting presence, she became happy instantly when Yu Long allowed her to stay on his side, as if her resentment toward the Devil Race amounts less compared to Yu Long's words.
"As for you, Jin." Yu Long glanced at the silverish-black sword.
"Stay quiet for now, and gather your soul energy."
"I will unseal you out of the Primordial Sin Divine Sword after we visit the Eternal Night Royal Family's Ancestral Land."
Jin was unhappy with this unfair treatment, but he was still Yu Long's dog at the end of the day. He could only sigh and swallow his unwillingness.
"Understood, my lord."
Ling Zhiyun transformed into her original form and flashed a smug look at the Primordial Sin Divine Sword. 'This is my victory.' She sent the Devil Prince a mental message.
'Grrr, not for long.' Jin responded with a low tone.
Yu Long ignored their banter and descended from the sky. He stepped on the water and casually walked to the fainted Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign.
After checking that the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign had fainted and lost his link with the Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations, Yu Long nodded and sealed the Devil King's profound veins so he couldn't do anything reckless upon waking up.
Throwing the Devil King to his shoulder, Yu Long whistled and acted as if he was walking in the park and not just changing the climate on this part of Blue Pole Star.
This ocean's area would always be sunny and might become dry land for a few decades.
Yu Long didn't care, though.
He already returned to the island and checked the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest. He walked into the cave and saw several scratches on the rough walls, probably the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereigns counting day after day while losing his sanity.
He couldn't blame Evil God for sealing the Devil King and Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations here.
It's like a sealing virus. Evil God prevented it from contaminating the world.
'No wonder the Evil God moved the Blue Pole Star to the corner of Primal Chaos. This planet alone has three Heavenly Treasures.' Yu Long thought to himself.
Yu Long finally arrived at the deepest part of the cave and discovered a pillar of jade. The jade has lost its original color and becomes pitch black, holding a wheel-shaped object in the center.
The wheel-shaped object is around the size of an adult's head. It's round and mainly black-oriented with greenish patterns on the edge.
Ling Zhiyun shuddered and stared at the wheel in fear, "It is really here."
"The Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations."
"The seal is pretty much useless." Yu Long looked at the darkened jade weirdly.
"The only reason this Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations didn't escape is that it can't. It still needs a host or owner."
"The Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign can't do it because he's too weak now."
"Eh?" Ling Zhiyun was dumbfounded.
"There is such a reason?"
Yu Long chuckled and continued, "Do you know what's more interesting, Zhiyun..."
"The Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations stayed here because it wanted me to become its host."
"It tests me using the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign."
"This thing is so confident that those pesky negative emotions can affect me."
Ling Zhiyun and Jin sucked a cold breath. This Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulation is so crafty!
"Then, why don't we seal it again?" Ling Zhiyun didn't want her Master to touch this evil artifact.
Even though Jin didn't say anything to support Ling Zhiyun's words, he agreed with her. Even his father lost his mind because of this Heavenly Treasure.
Yu Long stepped forward, "Don't worry."
"This Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations won't have a chance to corrupt me."
"Do you know why?"
Gulp!
Ling Zhiyun gulped audibly, "Why?"
"Because I have a roommate who lives rent-free in my head." Yu Long laughed as he stretched his hand carefreely.
"Right, [Kaiju Maker]?"
ROOOOOOOARRR!
A majestic roar echoed in Yu Long's soul.
Yu Long confidently grabbed the Evil infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulation and whispered the magic word, "Extract!"
