Chapter 357 - Chapter 357: Chapter 58 Discussing Business (2/2)
“I indeed felt that spell, which is why I thought to use my own Five Elements Divine Art to detonate the spell within him that shared the same origin as the Five Elements Divine Art.”
“Originally, I just wanted to try it out.”
“But unexpectedly, it actually worked.”
After listening to Lin Jing’s narration, Yan Wanfei became excited and quickly said,
“Brother Lin…”
“Your Five Elements Divine Art is so extraordinary…”
“That Heavenly Desire Demon Monarch just took one hit and nearly suffered a severe injury that left him close to death, that’s too incredible.”
Lin Jing then helplessly spread his hands:
“This spell is from our predecessors, if I were to use the Five Elements Divine Art myself, I probably wouldn’t even scratch his fur.”
Yan Wanfei was speechless for a moment.
Meanwhile, after pondering for a while, Holaw Three Rivers suddenly spoke up:
“Five Elements…”
“While reviewing ancient texts before, I seem to have come across mentions of a cultivator in the Thousand Islands Domain who was proficient in Five Elements spells a long time ago.”
“However, it’s been too long, and not much record of him has been left.”
“And that Heavenly Desire Demon Monarch, it seems he may have been sealed for some time because I’ve never heard of him before either…”
Following that, there was a moment of silence.
After a while, Lu Youjiu spoke up, continuing to say,
“Regarding what the Heavenly Desire Demon Monarch said, I’m sure you all heard, he definitely won’t let things rest, and as soon as he fully recovers, he will surely come to trouble us.”
“Do you have any thoughts?”
After speaking, Lu Youjiu looked toward Lin Jing and Yan Wanfei, though, of course, his gaze primarily rested on Lin Jing.
No sooner had Lu Youjiu’s words fallen than Yan Wanfei blurted out:
“Brother Ji, you think too highly of me, what ideas could I have? If that Heavenly Desire Demon Monarch dares to come, then we just have to face him…”
Everyone expected no different from Yan Wanfei’s response.
Lin Jing, after pondering for a moment, looked at Lu Youjiu and asked,
“Do you know how long it might take that Heavenly Desire Demon Monarch to recover?”
Lu Youjiu thought for a moment, then replied,
“Previously he transformed into black Demonic Qi, originally in a state without a body, just a Soul Spirit. Afterward, you detonated the Five Elements spell remnants within the grey mist, so he has been significantly injured, even his Soul Spirit is damaged.”
“To fully recover, even at the fastest, it will take a few years. If it’s slower, it might even take decades or a century.”
“And another thing…”
“His Divine Sense is simply too strong, unlike anything a Nascent Soul Cultivator should possess.”
“I highly suspect that before this, he might have been a Divine Transformation Cultivator; it’s just that someone used some special means to make his cultivation fall to the Nascent Soul Realm.”
Upon hearing Lu Youjiu’s words, Lin Jing’s brow furrowed, and he murmured,
“Divine Transformation Cultivator…”
If it was indeed a Divine Transformation Cultivator, then they were likely all in a difficult situation.
“Are you certain?” Lin Jing lifted his head and looked at Lu Youjiu.
Lu Youjiu shook his head and said,
“It’s just a guess, we still need to verify it.”
“If we can find the records of that Heavenly Desire Demon Monarch’s life, that would be even better…”
“Hmm…” Lin Jing nodded his head.
A suspected Divinity Transformation Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, even having disappeared for many years, would still be relatively easy to investigate.
Afterward.
Lin Jing looked at Lu Youjiu and Holaw Three Rivers and asked again.
“Brother Lu, Brother San He…”
“What are your thoughts for what we should do next?”
Previously, Lu Youjiu asked the two of them to discuss matters, implying that he and Holaw Three Rivers had already talked.
Lu Youjiu then spoke,
“Actually, before you two returned, San He and I had already had a discussion.”
“We called you here so that we could all discuss together and see if you had any better suggestions.”
“Also…”
“Since we are all in the same boat now, as long as the Heavenly Desire Demon Monarch is not dealt with, we will always face a threat.”
“Therefore, we need to unite in order to stand against the Heavenly Desire Demon Monarch.”
Lin Jing nodded in agreement after hearing that.
Lu Youjiu was right; as long as the Heavenly Desire Demon Monarch remained a threat, they were always in danger.
Yan Wanfei then stood up to express his stance,
“Brother Ji, just tell me what to do, and I will obey your orders. Even if you ask me to slay the Heavenly Desire Demon Monarch himself, I won’t even frown.”
Lu Youjiu, undiplomatically, said directly to Yan Wanfei,
“Right now, you just need to sit tight and listen. When it’s time for you to do something, I will naturally arrange it.”
“Oh, alright…” Yan Wanfei immediately sat down obediently.
Lin Jing also spoke up to show his agreement,
“Brother Lu is right; with the threat of the Heavenly Desire Demon Monarch, if we are split apart, we’re likely to face more danger.”
Lu Youjiu nodded slightly, then continued,
“So, before you came back…”
“San He and I discussed and decided to take over Li Yan Island right away, then get ready to face the Heavenly Desire Demon Monarch.”
