Chapter 935: The price of looking directly at God
“Is it done?”
Seeing Lu Xin’s precise grasp on the old man and their eyes meeting, even his father’s overwhelming power of fear and his mother’s fully unleashed power of insight faltered.
A heavy and loud heartbeat could be heard.
They all felt nervous.
He realized that this moment was the key to accurately determine the outcome of the battle …
On top of that, when Lu Xin’s aura erupted, they subconsciously did not dare to make too big of a move.
“Pa la …”
Lu Xin grabbed the old man’s neck and growled at him.
In the image of the old man’s existence, the sheepskin cover book, which had borrowed his golden pen, fell to the ground weakly.
At the same time, the image of the old man shattered like glass, and colorful fragments bloomed like fireworks.
Lu Xin was the only one left in the church, clutching the old man’s neck.
However, the surrounding scene was changing slightly like an unstable current.
In the blink of an eye, the scene was still in the dilapidated church, surrounded by broken walls and dim candlelight.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Xin and the old man seemed to have reappeared in the abyss, surrounded by a dark red background and a cold wind.
..
..
The world was constantly changing, alternating between reality and the abyss.
Lu Xin held the old man’s neck tightly, but the two of them were unusually calm as they stared at the old man.
The power from the past could press down on the old man at any time and crush him.
However, Lu Xin was also using all his strength to control himself so that he would not immediately release the power on the old man.
He was giving the old man a chance, a chance to surrender.
However, at this moment, the old man just closed his eyes tightly, and time seemed to have passed for a long time.
“I refuse,” he slowly replied.
..
..
“Rejected?”
The old man’s answer shocked everyone.
Whether it was his mother, who had released the eye of insight, or his father, who could not hold back his emotions any longer, they were all shocked.
This included Lu Xin, who was still holding onto the old man’s neck.
Their faces revealed expressions of disbelief, not daring to believe that they would hear such an answer.
Lu Xin’s hands had already clenched tightly.
Even though Lu Xin didn’t have any killing intent towards the old man, he knew that the old man had already killed himself by giving him the answer. His instincts were driving him to make sure that the old man didn’t get killed after he had given the answer.
However, at the same time, the old man’s face revealed a look of determination after he said this.
“Swish!”
Before Lu Xin could tighten his grip on his neck, he suddenly opened his eyes.
“Chi …”
A tremendous mental pressure erupted when he opened his eyes and saw Lu Xin’s eyes.
Everything in the surroundings was instantly shattered by the impact of this infinite power.
The entire world was like paper, twisted, abstract, and all the mental power was fixed in the air.
Then, as if stirred by an invisible hand, it turned into a chaotic and completely disorderly mess …
His father was sent flying, his strength shrinking into a ball.
His mother’s eye of insight that was floating in the air also disappeared instantly. She turned around and hugged her sister who was crawling out.
“Pfft …”
The old man’s eyes seemed to have been pierced by red-hot steel needles, instantly shattering, and black blood flowed out of his eyes.
the truth does not fear the prying of any existence …
The moment the eye shattered, the old man in Lu Xin’s hand suddenly burst with unprecedented power.
His body gave out a loud answer that an old body should not have.
At the same time, his body suddenly seemed to melt and quickly drift away.
His body became thin, but there was a strange power that quickly spread to the surroundings in the void.
As he extended his mental power, the whole town began to shrink.
Everything in this town, be it the buildings, the stone paths, the cold fog that never dispersed all year round, the forgotten fishing boats, or the White flowers that quietly bloomed under the eaves, were folded up like a piece of paper and rolled to the center.
A piece of paper rolled up and formed a ball.
A small town was folded up, forming a huge cage.
Lu Xin could feel his body being crushed by the rubble and buildings.
..
..
“You deserve to die …”
Lu Xin was so infuriated by the violent pressure that he let out a roar of fear.
He clenched his fingers tightly and a crazy power surged out, as if it wanted to devour the old man.
However, before he could do so, he suddenly saw the old man’s eyes.
Even though he was already blind.
The man’s eyes were dark and black, with only black blood oozing out of them. However, Lu Xin felt that he could still see the man’s eyes. He could see the man’s extremely weak face, but his gaze was unusually calm.
“I shouldn’t have done this …”
Lu Xin was jolted back to his senses and realized that he had already grabbed the old man by his mouth.
His mouth was open …
He was a little frightened by his own madness and hurriedly pushed the old man away, even trying to avoid him.
Following this action, his mother’s anxious voice passed through the layers of chaotic mental turbulence and entered his ears, “”Don’t kill him. He’s trying to trap us inside. This was a cage of knowledge. He had trapped himself here and used this cage to lock the power of the prisoner of the night. If we kill him, then we’ll all be trapped here.”
even if we can use tyrant’s power to get out of trouble after this, no one knows how long it will take …
it could be ten years, twenty years, or even a hundred years …
“..”
Lu Xin’s thoughts became clearer and clearer, and he even felt a lingering fear.
Just a little bit more, just a little bit more, and he had just fallen for the old man’s trick …
“For what?”
He was suddenly filled with endless anger. He grabbed the old man again, but this time, he didn’t have the intention of devouring him.
“Do you really want to go against me?”
There were no overlapping voices in his voice, only anger. “I can swallow you, but I don’t want to eat people.”
I can also summon my spiritual Palace and completely destroy this town.
“But there are so many people living in this town. What about them?”
“..”
His eyes were filled with black particles, and he was different from when he interrogated the old man with a condescending attitude.
Lu Xin’s voice was filled with a harsh question, and it was a question from an ordinary person.
There was no sense of power or mystery.
In fact, in the eyes of some existences, this kind of questioning behavior seemed even more weak.
However, the old man in Lu Xin’s grasp suddenly trembled.
The mental power that he extended out of his body suddenly became calmer.
Around him, the speed at which the town was distorted, attracted, and folded by a mysterious force had also slowed down slightly.
Whether it was his mother or his father, both of them had sharply noticed this change.
His father had an impulse at the first moment and looked at the only chance he had.
He could escape.
For some reason, the fire stealer had slowed down the speed at which it was folding the town.
However, this slowing down and stopping undoubtedly gave him a chance to escape.
As long as he took this opportunity to leave, he would not be trapped in this mystery by the old man.
Although he had lost his authority, he had also gained his freedom, and …
.. A temporary chance of survival.
Its father’s instinct drove it to make this choice subconsciously.
Regardless of whether it was Lu Xin, his mother, or his sister, how could he let go of his remaining life force?
However, just as he had this thought, he suddenly felt his mother’s cold and heavy gaze.
His father suddenly realized that this was a journey to help him regain his authority.
Then …
A huge dilemma appeared in his heart. He desperately hugged his head and cried out in pain.
..
..
“If …”
The blind old man in front of Lu Xin said tiredly after his mental power had calmed down, ”
“If, the question I asked you before, could be changed to:”
this world is about to be destroyed. You can only leave one thing behind. So, what will you choose to leave behind? ”
“..”
Lu Xin was slightly taken aback, not expecting him to ask such a question.
However, after a moment of silence, he gritted his teeth and said, ” I like this world, and I won’t let it be destroyed.
The old man was also slightly stunned, as if he did not expect such an answer.
Then, he slowly continued to ask, “”What if?”
Lu Xin was currently enduring the pressure of the gazes directed at him, and his mental power was in a mess under his barely controlled control. Most importantly, he was also angry, so he could barely form an effective thought. When the old man asked the question, he subconsciously roared in reply, ” I don’t care if there’s an ‘if’ at all …
if this world is going to be destroyed, I’ll definitely give up my life to protect him …
I won’t be the first person to give up my life for this world, but I definitely won’t be the last one to survive …
so, before the world is destroyed, I must have died long ago. There is no need to choose …
“..”
This answer made the old man’s gloomy expression relax a little.
His body seemed to have suddenly become soft.
it’s actually such an answer …
After a long time, he sighed in a low voice. even I can’t deny that such a low-level way of thinking is wrong …
..
..
As he sighed, Lu Xin suddenly realized that everything around him had faded away like an oil painting.
The oppressive pressure disappeared instantly, and Lu Xin’s vision blurred as he saw a bright candlelight.
He saw that he was in the church, and everything around him was intact, no different from when he had just arrived.
Only the old man was standing in front of the faceless statue, looking at him quietly.
Lu Xin suddenly realized that he looked exactly the same as the statue. He didn’t have a face that belonged to him.
The only difference was that he was indeed blind, and blood was flowing out of his eye sockets.
..
..
“You guys have won …”
take it. ” the old man said in. low voice. the power of the King of the Night …
