The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 762 - 270
Impermanence guessed correctly.
Lin Yun was not the reincarnation of a Divine Emperor, but just now, a Divine Emperor that had been lurking within him awoke.
"There is something here that I need, which after obtaining, can help me restore my Divine Country."
The voice of Canglan was very gentle, and she spoke directly in Lin Yun’s heart, yet it still conveyed her weakness to him.
Actually, Canglan was a good God.
In her deal with Lin Yun, she provided benefits first, then fell into a slumber, all the while offering him protection within his body.
Without the shelter of Canglan, Lin Yun might have fallen at the hands of the Azure Dragon Gu Worm, allowing Green Lotus to do as she pleased.
So when Canglan’s voice sounded, Lin Yun immediately chose to help her.
"Where exactly are the things you want?"
Lin Yun completed the exchange with Canglan in his mind.
"The Minotaur’s mask, the clothes on Meng Po’s body. Also, the heart of Impermanence."
Lin Yun knew that Impermanence was nearby even before he showed up.
To be honest, Canglan had been silent until now, but when she did speak, the things she needed were not simple.
Not to mention the Minotaur’s mask, Lin Yun had not even realized he was wearing a mask, and Meng Po’s clothes...
That’s not really appropriate, right? Forcibly stripping them might cause trouble.
The first two weren’t life-threatening, but the last, the heart of Impermanence, that would probably require killing Impermanence to achieve.
Comparing the strengths of both sides, Lin Yun felt the difficulty was immense.
"Can’t defeat it, goodbye."
Between repaying a debt and preserving his own life, Lin Yun chose to preserve his life.
After all, his future was promising; give him some time, and he would surely help Canglan recover some strength and then extend her life.
Knowing his own limitless potential, there was no need to engage in a bloodbath with a powerful enemy at this time.
"I don’t have much time left. I awakened feeling the Power of Xuanwu, and now if I fall asleep again, it might be an eternal slumber. I can only make one final struggle. I’ll lend you my Azure Dragon’s strength, combined with the Xuanwu Pearl, you will have a ninety percent chance of winning."
When Lin Yun heard this, a ninety percent chance of victory still seemed rather dangerous.
But this rate of success was worth gambling on.
That was indeed the reason for his sudden change of strategy.
In fact, Canglan only helped him make a choice, and her awakening, in terms of timing, was just right.
If they maintained a superficial friendship with the Minotaur and Meng Po and then just left, would it all be over?
Not necessarily.
If they chose to return to the Mortal Realm, the matter would certainly end, but then Zhang Biyu’s True Spirit would die.
Moreover, even if Lin Yun, to be safe, soothed the Snow Maiden to give up on reincarnating Zhang Biyu, the Minotaur and Meng Po might still not let them go.
They might summon other Divine Spirits for a sneak attack while they cross the River of Oblivion or on their way to Wugui City.
In any case, the situation was very passive for Lin Yun.
Rather than retreating in disgrace, it was better to strike first.
Lin Xiaosong decided today was the day he would make a bold move!
"Long time no see, Lord Impermanence. It feels as though our last meeting was just yesterday."
Lin Yun greeted Impermanence, who was approaching ferociously, with a rather calm demeanor.
This composed appearance even caused Impermanence to feel slightly uneasy.
He felt he couldn’t quite see through Lin Yun.
His luck couldn’t be that bad, right?
Yes, if this Lin Yun was a Divine Emperor, he wouldn’t be so polite to him; this fellow must be bluffing!
"No need for idle chatter. Let’s see the truth through action."
Impermanence took out a White Banner, from which a thick black mist spread, emitting a ghastly wail as he waved it. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Indeed, the supposed loss of control by Meng Po and the Minotaur was actually controllable. Since Impermanence could control the resentment energy, it made no sense for him to let his two teammates fall into a state of frenzy, and he would not team up with reigning Divine Spirits.
And while Lin Yun was contemplating, a black sail had already reached his back.
This guy truly was treacherous, feigning an attack on the surface to grab Lin Yun’s attention, while sneakily launching a surprise attack.
The White Banner was enveloped in black mist, yet oddly, the power of the black sail seemed neutral and calming.
However, Lin Yun was prepared as well. When the black sail struck him in the back, it met directly with his Thunderclap Sword.
Golden Thunderbolt erupted instantly, repelling the black sail.
No sooner had he repelled the black sail than Impermanence’s frontal attack arrived.
It was at this moment, Meng Po and the Minotaur each took on their respective opponents.
"You still want to wrestle with me? This time, I’ll show my true power," said the Minotaur as he tapped his steel trident, no longer bearing his naive appearance, with red light flaring in his eyes again.
Qian Qian sensed something was awry. Was this ox really out of control?
She didn’t have much time to think, for Meng Po had transformed even more thoroughly this time. She became a massive yellow octopus.
The indestructible garment turned out to be her own skin, now completely enveloping her body.
Even when shot at by Lin Yun again, she was unfazed.
And small eyes began to grow on the tentacles sprawling from her body.
Unlike Qian Qian’s eyes, the eyes on Meng Po’s tentacles sprouted smaller tentacles, which in turn grew tiny eyes capable of sprouting even more tentacles.
In just an instant, Meng Po had spawned tens of thousands of tentacles, wriggling en masse towards Qian Qian.
This was more than a simple physical attack. All the tentacles were coated with viscous slime, and with Meng Po’s innate Divine Skills for attacking the psyche, they evoked a sense of nausea, Qian Qian included.
Qian Qian, known as the Thousand Hands and Eyes God, felt somewhat overwhelmed by the sight.
Yet, what worried her most was the situation with Lin Yun.
She and the Snow Maiden could hold their ground against their foes, but Lin Yun was just a mortal, and he...
As Qian Qian turned her head, she just saw Lin Yun’s claw protruding from Impermanence’s chest, still wet with his black and white blood.
???
What happened?
Without a doubt, Impermanence was the strongest among the three gods. He was very cunning and had gone straight for Lin Yun, who appeared to be the weakest in terms of cultivation level. He must have thought Lin Yun was just another Divine Spirit, at most of the Divine King Rank.
Even when hunting a rabbit, a lion gives its all, and Impermanence was not careless in the slightest.
A surprise attack to start off, and a finishing blow to follow.
As expected, Lin Yun easily blocked his sneak attack, but what he could never have anticipated was that the real killer move was his direct frontal strike.
That move was his Divine Skill Impermanence Soul Hooking Stab.
Seemingly traceable, but in reality inevitable, it directly targeted the soul for its killing blow.
Gods from the Netherworld Realm specialized in soul-attacking techniques, and in the unique environment of the Netherland, such Divine Skills were especially powerful.
Impermanence refused to believe that with intention against the unwitting, Lin Yun could possibly defend against it.
However, he miscalculated.
His White Banner was indeed aimed at Lin Yun’s soul, but when he thrust it forward, not only did it fail to penetrate the defense, but sparks of golden light started to spread onto his soul-calling banner.
Impermanence sensed something was terribly wrong, and at that moment, Lin Yun made his move.
With an Azure Dragon Claw, he reached directly for Impermanence’s heart.
This was not the ordinary martial move Azure Dragon Claw, but the Azure Dragon Claw executed after an Azure Dragon had possessed him.
It ignored both distance and defense, directly seizing Impermanence’s heart.
"Hand it over!"
