Chapter 275: Isn't this script a bit too disjointed?
"It seems that you have come to believe my explanation."
The hoarse, emotionless voice of the man in the black robe slowly emanated from through the robe.
Lin Hanzhou recovered from his shock, casually tossed the black card through the air in an arc, and it landed steadily in the black-robed man's hand.
"It's definitely a good product."
Lin Hanzhou commented calmly, without a trace of greed in his eyes.
This thing was not only a "white elephant" to him, but it could even be described as a "burden".
Moreover, as a special binding item of the Samsara Palace, even if he manages to seize it without the original owner's consent, it is just a piece of waste paper and cannot be activated at all.
"So, what is your purpose?"
Lin Hanzhou crossed his arms and stared intently at the mysterious "colleague" before him.
"Going to such lengths to reveal their identity and pull out such high-level props to gain my trust, they couldn't possibly be here just to reminisce, could they?"
"What's the purpose...?"
The man in black robes took the resurrection card and casually tucked it into his sleeve, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"I just want to make friends with you, fellow Daoist."
"Make friends?"
Lin Hanzhou raised an eyebrow, his expression noncommittal.
In this treacherous and deceitful world of reincarnation, there are actually people who believe in the idea of "making friends"?
This is even more outrageous than "I am Qin Shi Huang, send me money".
Believe it or not.
The man in black robes seemed unconcerned by Lin Hanzhou's suspicions. He slowly raised a hand and pointed to a certain spot in the formation.
"You can leave now."
"Let's get out of here before that old guy recovers."
"Otherwise, once he suppresses the toxins in his body and recovers his eighth-level, tenth-stage cultivation, you won't be able to leave even if you want to."
"Buzz—!"
Before he could finish speaking...
The man in the black robe gently waved his hand, which was hidden beneath his wide sleeves.
The originally airtight killing formation, which could completely block even eighth-level divine sense, was suddenly opened up by his casual wave of the hand, like melting snow, with a gap that could only be passed through by one person.
Through the gap, one can clearly see the outside world.
"..."
Upon seeing this, Lin Hanzhou was once again briefly stunned.
Just let it go like that?
Is this over?
Isn't this script a bit too disjointed?
One second it was a life-or-death struggle, and the next it turned into a heartwarming workplace drama of "hello colleague, goodbye colleague"?
"Are you... serious?"
Lin Hanzhou looked at the gap with some suspicion, then at the man in black robes.
"What's wrong, fellow Daoist? Are you reluctant to leave and wish to stay and continue your 'in-depth exchange' with our elder?"
The black-robed man's hoarse voice held a hint of mockery.
"Oh, that's not necessary."
After a brief moment of thought, Lin Hanzhou decided to leave.
Regardless of the other party's motives, and regardless of whether there is a bigger conspiracy behind it.
But one thing is certain: staying here is absolutely the stupidest choice.
His keen senses had clearly perceived that the chaos deep within the soul of the black-robed old monster who was rolling on the ground was gradually subsiding.
That terrifying aura belonging to the eighth rank, tenth level, is slowly reviving like a giant beast awakening.
While the 【Ten Thousand Demons Soul-Devouring Poison】 is powerful, it is still a bit lacking in its ability to truly kill an eighth-tier, tenth-level powerhouse who stands at the pinnacle of the Great Thousand World.
Once the opponent recovers, even if they only regain one or two tenths of their strength, it would be enough to crush him with a single finger.
Although he could start "Future Star Tribulation" and flip the table.
But this would also bring his journey to an end.
In this situation, running away is indeed a good option.
Immediately, Lin Hanzhou moved and arrived at the gap.
Before leaving, he stopped and looked back at the mysterious man in black robes for a long time.
"One last question."
"What's your name? Or rather... what's your code name?"
However, when Lin Hanzhou asked the question, the man in black simply shook his head.
"A name is just a label; it's not important."
"As for what you want to know, you'll find out soon enough."
"Buzz—!"
As the last word fell.
The gap in the array that was originally open began to slowly close.
Without further hesitation, Lin Hanzhou flashed out.
With Lin Hanzhou's departure, the gap closed completely, and the formation returned to its original indestructible state.
The man in black robes stood silently in the direction Lin Hanzhou had disappeared, a meaningful glint flashing in his eyes hidden beneath the robes.
He slowly turned around, his wide black robe fluttering even without wind.
"Buzz—!"
With a casual wave of his hand, a strange yet powerful force of the world surged forth from his body.
This power of the world rapidly condensed and took shape in the void before him.
In the blink of an eye, a bloody, lifeless corpse appeared out of thin air in his hand.
If Lin Hanzhou were here right now, he would be so shocked that his eyes would pop out.
Because the corpse's face, figure, and even its unique aura were exactly the same as his own!
"Done."
The man in black robes carried the corpse of "Lin Hanzhou" as if it were a dead dog, and strolled over to the old monster in black robes who was still twitching on the ground.
He took out several pills that nurtured the soul, refined them into pure medicinal power, and transferred them into the body of the black-robed old monster.
As the powerful medicinal effects entered his body, the toxins were temporarily suppressed. Although the black-robed monster was still in excruciating pain, his heart-wrenching screams gradually subsided.
Although blood was still flowing from his seven orifices, his spiritual fluctuations had begun to stabilize.
"Old Man An".
The man in black robes looked down at him, his voice still hoarse and flat.
"Where is that damned extraterrestrial demon?!"
Upon hearing the sound, the black-robed old monster suddenly opened his eyes.
Those once dignified old eyes were now bloodshot, filled with endless resentment and murderous intent.
"Where is he? I will tear him to pieces!!"
"Here."
The man in black robes tossed it casually.
With a "thud," the corpse of "Lin Hanzhou" fell heavily in front of the black-robed old monster.
"I've already killed him."
"Kill...killed?"
The old monster in black robes was stunned.
He stared blankly at the familiar corpse in front of him, at the face he hated to the core, and for a moment he was unable to react.
"You just killed him like that?!"
He suddenly raised his head, staring intently at the man in black robes, his eyes filled with resentment and anger.
"Why didn't you leave anyone alive? Even just their soul would have been better!!"
Do you even know what I just went through?
"That damned ant! How dare he humiliate me like this! How dare he cause me such a terrible state!!"
"I'm going to torture him! I'm going to make him wish he were dead! I'm going to burn his soul like a lantern for ten thousand years!!"
The old monster in black robes roared hysterically, as if only in this way could he vent the anger in his heart.
However, in response to his roar, the man in black simply replied:
"It is precisely because he harmed you so badly that I dare not hold back in the slightest."
"You're at the eighth level, tenth stage, and he's managed to turn you into this state."
"If I were to leave you alive, and things were to go wrong, your current miserable state would serve as a warning to me."
"..."
These words were like a bucket of ice water, instantly extinguishing all the black-robed monster's anger.
silence.
Dead silence.
The black-robed old monster opened his mouth, wanting to refute, but found himself speechless.
Because what the other party said was the truth, the stark truth.
If he hadn't insisted on messing around and torturing the other person with poison, they wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state.
"Cough cough..."
After a long while, the black-robed old monster coughed awkwardly twice, forcibly changing the subject.
"In that case, forget it."
"So be it, he's dead. It's a good thing he got off easy."
He waved his hand listlessly and struggled to get up from the ground.
"Let's go back first."
"In my current state, although I have temporarily suppressed the toxins, I will need to go into seclusion for a period of time to completely expel them."
"This mission can be considered a complete success. We have eliminated all nine extraterrestrial demons predicted by the Heavenly Compass."
