Chapter 436 But I refuse
Chapter 436 But I refuse
A wise light gleamed in Mo Linyu's eyes, as if he had seen through all the secrets of heaven.
"Heaven's justice is fair."
"To prevent those immortal monsters from indefinitely monopolizing the opportunity to become an emperor, the Heavenly Dao has set up an invisible shackle."
"For any quasi-emperor who has proclaimed themselves emperor for over ten thousand years, the difficulty of attaining enlightenment increases exponentially!"
"Not only will your vital energy and blood decline more rapidly, but the power of the heavenly tribulation will also increase several times over!"
At this point, Mo Linyu shook his head, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
"Throughout history, no one has ever been able to attain enlightenment after sealing themselves off for more than 50,000 years."
"So, from the very beginning, I knew he was going to die."
"That's why I haven't made a move yet."
"It's not worth my energy to waste on a dead man who is destined to fail."
……
Lin Hanzhou simply nodded after listening.
"I see."
"No wonder all those hundred-plus men were wiped out; so that's the story behind it."
"Been taught a lesson."
His tone was very sincere, like that of a student humbly seeking knowledge.
But Mo Linyu frowned.
Because he couldn't see the slightest bit of reverence on Lin Hanzhou's face.
Even nervousness.
You must know, he is Mo Linyu! He is the biological son of the Ancient Qilin Emperor! He is the person with the greatest hope of attaining enlightenment in this lifetime!
When an ordinary quasi-emperor sees him, which one doesn't feel like he's facing a formidable enemy?
But the mysterious young man in black in front of him seemed to regard him as a passing storyteller.
"Fellow Daoist."
Mo Linyu took a deep breath, and the gentleness in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by an expression of "apprehension".
"Let's not beat around the bush."
"Actually, before coming here, I had already observed the entire Nine Heavens Continent using my clan's 'Qilin Heavenly Eye'."
"Those so-called holy sons of holy lands and princes of dynasties are nothing but clay chickens and earthen dogs in my eyes, not worth mentioning."
"Only you..."
Mo Linyu stared intently at Lin Hanzhou, two golden phantom images of Qilin suddenly appearing in his eyes, trying to see through Lin Hanzhou's true nature.
But in his field of vision.
Lin Hanzhou is not alone.
It is a bottomless black hole that devours all light!
That unfathomable sense of danger caused a crack to appear in his originally rock-solid Dao heart.
"I can't see your past, and I can't see your future."
"I can't even see through your cultivation level."
"But I have a gut feeling..."
"You are the greatest obstacle on my path to enlightenment in this lifetime!"
This statement came out.
Jiang Ling, who was hiding behind, suddenly covered her mouth and looked at her master in shock.
Although she knew Lin Hanzhou was very strong, she never expected him to be so strong that he could make a son of an ancient emperor say such a thing!
"The biggest obstacle?"
Lin Hanzhou smiled.
He put down his teacup and finally looked at Mo Linyu properly for the first time.
"so what?"
"Are you here to kill me?"
"No."
Mo Linyu shook his head.
"I'm not confident I can kill you."
"At least not now."
This frankness surprised Lin Hanzhou somewhat.
"I'm here to make a deal with you."
"As long as you promise me that you will give up this battle for the imperial path and lie low in this era for 30,000 years."
"I swear in my father's name that the next throne will be yours."
"Furthermore, I will guarantee your safety during my reign as emperor."
"Twenty thousand years from now, when I pass away, this world will be yours!"
"how?"
Hearing this, Lin Hanzhou almost burst out laughing.
What kind of conditions are these? Isn't this just trying to get something for nothing?
"I'm sorry, I refuse. The throne in this life is also very important to me."
Lin Hanzhou spoke calmly, his tone carrying a hint of indifference.
Upon hearing this, Mo Linyu, still unwilling to give up, spoke again.
"Then what do you want? I have a father who was once an emperor. I can give you anything you desire."
His tone revealed a sense of anxiety.
Because he couldn't wait any longer.
He had already been born once during the era when the Azure Feather Emperor attained enlightenment.
At that time, he was unfortunately defeated by Emperor Qingyu and had no choice but to seal himself again.
He has now been sleeping in the divine source for 48,000 years!
There are less than two thousand years left until that "fifty thousand years" deadline!
If he fails to attain enlightenment this time, he will be completely ruined!
He too will become a pitiful wretch abandoned by the times, just like that Azure Emperor!
Therefore, he must win.
Therefore, he did not hesitate to humble himself to persuade this opponent who terrified him to back down.
……
Seeing that the other party was still unwilling to give up, Lin Hanzhou slowly stood up and patted off non-existent dust from his sleeves.
"That sounds really good."
"But... I refuse!"
Lin Hanzhou raised his head, his deep, unfathomable eyes staring directly at Mo Linyu, his tone calm yet carrying an indescribable air of dominance:
"Aren't you mistaken about something?"
"What I, Lin Hanzhou, want, I always take with my own hands."
"Instead of relying on others' charity."
"not to mention……"
Lin Hanzhou's lips curled into a mocking smile.
"If you're going to rely on this kind of clearing-out method to become a Great Emperor..."
"Isn't that a bit too low-class?"
"Even if you become an emperor like that, you'll still be nothing more than the lowest of the low."
"You think you're qualified to negotiate with me?"
boom!
These words were like a resounding slap across Mo Linyu's face.
Mo Linyu's originally handsome face instantly turned ferocious.
That layer of composure that maintained his dignity completely crumbled at this moment.
"you!"
"If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences!"
"I kindly spared your life, and you're so ungrateful!!"
Mo Linyu laughed in anger.
The phantom of the Qilin behind him roared to the sky, shattering the entire purple bamboo forest.
"Good! Very good!"
"Since you're so determined to die, then let's meet at the Great Wall of Diguan!"
"I'd like to see just how capable you are, you rogue cultivator whose name I've never even heard of!"
"My destiny in this life is destined to be mine!"
Swish!
Before he could finish speaking...
Mo Linyu's figure instantly transformed into a dazzling golden light, soaring into the sky.
He no longer hides or suppresses his feelings.
The terrifying aura belonging to the ancient emperor's son erupted in full force, like a golden meteor, rushing straight towards the imperial pass and Great Wall deep in the cosmic starry sky!
He panicked.
Being provoked by Lin Hanzhou is one aspect.
More importantly, he couldn't wait any longer!
Since the negotiations failed, he was determined to be the first to take the lead, seize the initiative, and use his invincible power to sweep away all obstacles!
Watching that streak of light disappear into the distance.
Lin Hanzhou did not rush to catch up.
He simply turned around and gently patted Jiang Ling's head, who was already stunned with fear.
"Girl, watch the house."
"I'll be right back."
After saying that, Lin Hanzhou took a step forward.
hum!
The space ripples.
His figure vanished into thin air, as if he had never existed.
Jiang Ling was left standing alone in the messy purple bamboo forest, staring blankly at the sky.
