Chapter 103: The Funny Ace
"Do you know, Ming? I like you as a human being. I regard you as my bosom friend." The deceitful demon gently clapped its hands, the two small chicken-like hands clapping together was truly laughable, but its long and immortal life had given it a unique elegance: "How wonderful is peaceful living? Let's have a cup of tea together, go enjoy the prosperity that the mortal world can't even imagine. Our immortal lives, why must we be like two thugs who must kill each other? Or all die?"
He Ming nodded, stroking his fractured left hand which was rapidly recovering, the bones directly reconnecting. He began to recover his combat strength, and similarly, the flames behind Mo had also extinguished.
He Ming smiled and picked up the red spider headgear, saying casually: "Let's talk about something interesting. I'm very curious about the world of the dead. And what you call precious secrets. Or what's going on with following Murong Da Wang?"
The demon shrugged and said, "Following Murong King was just for fun. Just like a living person needs to eat and drink. When I followed Murong King, he had already lost his way and almost became an instinctual low-level zombie king. He called himself Murong King which piqued my interest, and I thought of that outstanding Murong clan in your civilization. Some human souls are particularly likable, definitely extremely great."
"After a person dies, they generally enter the spiritual realm or the world of those people, such as the radiant world. Some people will live in the world of war, and Mu Rong's clan is likely to be in that world. I want to get the addresses of those souls from Mu Rong Da Wang's body, and then go take a look if I can deceive or snatch a few beautiful Mu Rong tribe souls?"
The deceitful demon shook his head regretfully and gazed deeply at He Ming. "I was possessing that female zombie, occasionally going out to do my own things. Recently I came back to find that Murong's body had greatly enlarged, I knew this was a result of a precious undying life, it can naturally attract monsters like a queen. Especially those foolish monsters, making their strength greatly increase. However, Nightmare Queen, the lady's personal power is weak, especially when she revived. I felt that this was a weak undying life, I immediately rushed over, but everything was too late..."
"When I saw you, I knew you had obtained its undying life. Killing you would not be of much use. So I protected Murong Dawa and escaped. You pursued me relentlessly, so I thought, let's have some fun with you. I didn't expect you to have a Life Detector, discovering my true identity."
Deceitful Demon shrugged regretfully and smiled, "That's fate. He Ming, in our immortal long time, we absolutely respect those with real power. In the devil's world, evil only belongs to the weak. You are a strong one, a natural-born devil killer. Why can't we get along peacefully? I'll deceive some rich and powerful monsters for you to slaughter, and we'll make a fortune together. Isn't this a perfect deal? I can swear by any effective divine oath."
He Ming showed great interest and nodded, saying: "What is this precious knowledge you're talking about?"
"Everything is there, including some such as what is the essence of a person? What is it? Humans have no essence. Haha. That's the answer. Many ordinary people ask this question, and they are covered in gold! You will understand soon, because you got rid of your weak mortal body."
The demon of deception revealed a mocking expression and continued: "Just like wisdom, it's an intangible thing that hides in a place where one can't see themselves. You only discover it when someone repeatedly thinks about it. Because you discovered it, you possess wisdom, but actually, it's just some unknown power that opens up a bit of wisdom for you in your unknown world. So, humans can only control the pitiful and weak physical strength. It's the most direct and effective power. The so-called creative power is completely nonsense. That bag of diamonds earlier, in the human world, especially among diamond kings, cutting requires years of calculation, repeated calculations after each cut, and finally, there's absolutely no comparison to the current unmatched craftsmanship. How laughable... A great demon craftsman can finish it in a few hours. The great dead world can finish it in a few hours. The place we're in is just a desolate edge. When you find the entrance to the dead world, you discover that the prosperous human world has no meaning."
"I understand what you mean, population determines economy, lifespan determines talent. A fool living for a thousand years is smarter than an intelligent person living for a hundred years. Right? The dead don't love to fight, or the king of the dead doesn't love to fight. So it's very prosperous, any great craftsman lives forever, any great person lives forever."
He Ming added an explanation, and the demon immediately clapped his hands, saying: "Clever! Clever!"
"Tell me about your treasure."
"Clever choice." The deceitful demon smiled, tapping He Ming's shoulder with his chicken-like hand, saying: "I like greedy people. A person who isn't greedy has no desires, and without desires, he is a thorough pessimist. He's even worse than a dead man. My latest treasure is hidden in an enormous deep cave in a dark world. It's a place of deathly silence, with no light, no sound, and nothing that can move..."
"My treasure could fill a city. Mountains of gold, oceans of gems the size of fists. Brand new steel weapons that can easily cleave through any monster that dares to provoke you. And countless other things beyond description from all corners of the world and different planes of existence. I cheat at everything, I prefer to win with deception rather than violence, even swindling a child out of their lollipop - You bastard, not even the most despicable demon is as shameless as you!"
Deception Demon reached the point of excitement, slightly losing composure. He Ming, who had been waiting for an opportunity, immediately launched a counterattack. With one hand, he tore open his own wound and scooped out a blood clot, which he then violently smashed onto Deception Demon's abdomen. The fish body instantly began to rot, melt, and burn. At the same time, Shi Dao also handed over the stone knife, wanting to behead him personally.
Deception Demon scolded and suddenly, the two small chickens stretched their hands into the void and pulled out a mask as big as a face basin. It was an evil Buddha mask with a smile like a clown's, extremely exaggerated. Deception Demon looked at the mask deeply, then put it on without hesitation.
A vast and powerful force, like a raging sea, has emerged in this passage! The evil Buddha has been reborn, instantly pouncing on He Ming, biting and chewing with incredible strength, its teeth razor-sharp. He Ming let out a series of miserable cries as the stone knife chopped wildly.
Xiefo laughed maniacally, biting down on He Ming's left hand, biting wildly, causing intense pain. He Ming let out a miserable cry and stabbed the stone knife fiercely into Xiefo's brain, stabbing wildly, but Xiefo didn't flinch at all.
Tore off a piece of flesh from He Ming's left hand, chewed and swallowed it, then because he had eaten a piece of undying true blood flesh, the entire body of the cheating demon turned bright red, ready to ignite at any moment.
He Ming looked at his left hand, a piece of flesh had been bitten off, extremely painful and furious, the stone knife hacked at the evil Buddha's head again, each time using all his strength to stimulate the power of the inner elixir.
The evil Buddha's head was beheaded, and its original face could no longer be seen. Even the clown-like smile had become distorted. It kept biting He Ming fiercely, occasionally letting out a chuckle.
He Ming was enraged, using a stone knife to cut off the fragments of the evil Buddha's mask, and directly swallowed them down. He viciously dug out the evil Buddha's eyeballs, which were extremely tough, and stuffed them into his mouth to chew: "Come on! Good taste! See who dies first! You can't stand eating my flesh, but I can eat yours, it's a great tonic!"
Both sides were fiercely devouring each other's bodies, He Ming was in extreme pain, but it ignited his fighting spirit. He bit and chewed the evil Buddha with all his might, even if his teeth fell out! The evil Buddha also launched a fierce counterattack, but it couldn't laugh anymore, its chin had been swallowed into He Ming's belly.
Both sides were disfigured and extremely brutal. When He Ming swallowed the evil Buddha mask whole, he also dug out one of Cheating Magic's eyes and swallowed it. Cheating Magic woke up from its slumber and immediately let out a blood-curdling scream, realizing that it had eaten He Ming's undying true blood flesh, causing its entire body to ignite in flames!
"Halt, halt! Cease fire! You're too terrifying! Did you eat the Evil Buddha Mask? It's a cannibal mask created by a fallen Buddha with powerful demonic energy. The only way to break it is to devour it. And you actually succeeded!" Deception Demon wailed as he retreated, while He Ming laughed fiercely: "Right, what I can't eat will only make me stronger!"
Deceived Demon gazed at He Ming with admiring eyes, his scalp had been bitten off, a piece of skull was gone, and internal organs could be seen. In this situation, he still managed to eat away the Evil Buddha's mask. "You're really stubborn... give up, I admire you, give up. My last trump card, even in your prime state, you can't withstand it for one second, let alone now."
He Ming was bleeding profusely, panting as he sat on the ground, his face covered in blood. He revealed a mouthful of white teeth, with several broken ones. "You damn strong. Good stuff is really TM many. Okay, ceasefire first."
He Ming wanted to rely on his own rapid healing ability to recover a bit, because the demon had swallowed a lot of his flesh and blood, and was burning from the inside out, and was about to say goodbye.
The demon of deception was extremely clear, it was extremely dangerous, it was abnormally painful, and abnormally desperate. It gasped and said: "You must let me go, I only give you ten seconds to consider, otherwise my last trump card will be played out. At that time, everything will disappear! He Ming, think about it, from a mortal to an immortal life, you have a long life, why bother? Give up. Please!"
The Deceiver Demon pleaded, and tears flowed from his single eye. He Ming rubbed his nose, showing silent disdain. But the Deceiver Demon didn't know his habit, thinking he was deep in thought.
Ten seconds passed, and the Deceiver Demon couldn't help but smile wryly. With one small chicken claw that could only move slightly, it reached deep into the void! The other one was eaten by He Ming.
He Ming directly pounced on the white lotus short stick. The two sides exchanged positions, He Ming had an extra short stick in his hand, and also Old Partner Shi Dao.
The deceitful demon had a huge box in his hand, which was placed directly on the ground, with only one hand always ready to open the box.
The box glowed with a red light, as if there was an extremely bright flame burning inside. The deceitful demon panted in pain and said: "Last five seconds. Let me go. Or everyone will die."
The deceitful demon spat out a mouthful of black blood, spraying it into the void. A large amount of treasure, including weapons, exquisite jewels, paintings and more, all fell down. "All my possessions are hidden in this void. I've opened it up for you. I'm leaving, if you follow me, I'll open this box." With that, the deceitful demon single-handedly picked up the box and walked away with its back to He Ming, heading towards the tunnel.
The young man He Ming couldn't bear it, immediately took a swift step forward, quietly and quickly rushing over to strike the demon's back with his short staff.
The deceitful demon didn't turn back, let out a desperate howl, and directly opened the box. An unimaginable light ball suddenly lit up in this passage, just like the sun appeared several meters ahead.
He Ming immediately closed his eyes, but still tried to see clearly in front of him. The demon had already turned around, holding a golden leaf that flickered with orange flames in its hand. From the moment it started, the entire person was engulfed in flames. Immediately, it threw the leaf over and sneered: "Dying under the scarlet leaves of the sunflower is also your noble fate..."
He Ming immediately turned around and ran away, but the leaf fell on his back, and He Ming was stunned.
The burning deceitful Mahaha laughed: "Foolish, greedy! Dare to resist an immortal void demon. I was born in the void, everywhere is my brother and sister, but in the first year, I ate countless brothers and sisters. In the second year, I escaped from that terrible void world. I started relying on deceit to survive, becoming stronger. At the same time, enjoying evil. So many years have passed, in the first year of the 20,000th year, I obtained immortal life. In the first hundred years of the 30,000th year, I relied on the evil Buddha mask to eat a head of an immortal dark beast. What a great and glorious feat, yet it was reduced to nothing by a mortal... Why are you still alive? Devil's back muscle? Sun devil's back muscle? What?"
He Ming rubbed his nose and turned around, saying: "Is my back muscle also devilish? Really cool, right? Actually, I've always wanted to tell you that the leaf falling on my back is like I'm about to level up. All wounds have recovered! Height has also increased. So strong, so strong! Back muscles are also devilish, right? Is this your trump card? Hahaha!"
He Ming felt the power of agility, at least more than double his strength. With just a slight introspection, he saw that his inner elixir was as big as a football, and now he could use the power of his inner elixir at will, without needing to deliberately urge it on. And on his back, the leaf was being absorbed, greatly strengthening the muscles in his back. So it's certain that his abdominal muscles had become devilish, and now his back muscles had also become devilish.
The burning deceit was momentarily stunned, grasping at time to let out a loud wail: "You half-breed, have you eaten the original body of the divine spirit from the High Heaven Origin? That substance that resembles a white tender infant?"
He Ming suddenly shouted, "You guessed the answer right, I've decided to let you go. Go ahead! Hahaha, I said it early on, only I can walk out alive. Hahahaha, thanks for the sunflower leaves. Awesome! Bye!"
He Ming burst into laughter, the deceitful demon walked towards its demise, leaving behind only a skull still burning in resistance. He Ming's mind stirred, and a faint flame appeared on his right hand. His right hand slowly approached the skull.
"This burning skull, with its one eye, saw the hand and exclaimed in shock and despair: 'The Undying True Blood has grown even stronger, and now the Undying True Fire has appeared. What kind of person are you? How can your luck be so good? I...I..."
He Ming and the others finished speaking, and then they slapped their hands together, shrugged their shoulders and said: "I'll be reborn in my next life. Goodbye, loser. It would have been perfect if you had just beaten me to death with a stick earlier. Also, thanks for your explanation, I won't need to bite my tongue or hurt myself from now on."
"You're just a useless kid... Me, save me, don't..."
Everything turned to dust and smoke, and a pile of things fell down. At the same time, in the void, a large number of objects began to fall one after another. He Ming looked at them with mixed emotions of joy and anger, saying: "Bastard, you said that all personal belongings were given to me? Did you ever tell the truth or not?"
