Chapter 443 - 357: You Are an Eye, Not a Mouth
The appearance of the black shark set off alarm bells in Lu Lin’s heart.
Daring to appear in front of Lu Lin again after once having his mental projection consumed, the black shark must have ample confidence to deal with Lu Lin’s tactics.
This time, it’s a big problem.
Lu Lin refrained from slaughtering these Star Generals en masse, not only to ensure a steady stream of resources but also to avoid attracting the attention of the black shark.
After all, this guy used to be a Former Star King expert; if Lu Lin were like him, wouldn’t he be prepared with countless life-saving and enemy-killing final cards?
"Lu Lin, let’s see where you can escape this time."
A faint smile appeared on the black shark’s face. He said to Red Dragon and E Shi, "Brothers, attack at will."
"This time, capture Lu Lin, and I’ll credit you both with a major merit."
Just entering Lu Lin’s Consciousness Universe, the two were also mentally invigorated.
The terrible power from earlier, with both flames burning the heavens and the pervasive death aura, was actually not their true level.
The black shark has always been sinister and cunning, and when dealing with him, one must hold something back to prevent unforeseen changes.
Unexpectedly, this time in targeting Lu Lin, the black shark’s avatar was willing to enter Lu Lin’s divine sense space proactively.
The divine sense space, another name for the Consciousness Universe.
This reassured Red Dragon and E Shi; following the black shark’s order, they went all out, attacking Lu Lin.
"Not good!"
Lu Lin suddenly felt the temperature, which was only somewhat scorching before, rising dramatically.
In the dark Consciousness Universe, a vast area of terrifying, all-consuming flames appeared.
And it’s not just flames.
In another direction, a swath of black death aura, merging with the Consciousness Universe, was slowly creeping toward the central area.
The speed was even faster than the flames.
"One-Eyed Demon Knife."
Lu Lin, after some inner conflict, directed the One-Eyed Demon Knife into the sea of flames.
"Absorb for me."
The One-Eyed Demon Knife, which had accompanied Lu Lin for so long, was invincible against both the Saint and the black shark.
For spiritual strength and mental bodies, the One-Eyed Demon Knife was their nemesis.
But this time, Lu Lin had a problem.
The One-Eyed Demon Knife kept swinging in the sea of flames, trying to devour the spiritual strength within the flames.
Yet it was all in vain.
How can this be possible?
Lu Lin’s eyes widened. The black and red figures before him, able to enter his Consciousness Universe, evidently were spiritual bodies.
But there exist spiritual bodies in this world that are unaffected by the One-Eyed Demon Knife.
"Lu Lin."
"Still playing with that broken knife?"
A touch of ridicule appeared on the black shark’s face.
After having his mental projection consumed by Lu Lin, the black shark recalled that this should be a unique skill from a rather special sect in the Longyuan World, under the Saber Demon Sect.
In the Longyuan World Saber Demon Sect, in fact, only one disciple from each generation can receive the inheritance from the Saber Demon.
When traveling outside, there is always only one Saber Demon.
If it weren’t for the fact that he lived long enough, the black shark could not connect Lu Lin with the Saber Demon.
Fifty thousand years ago.
The Saber Demon fought against ninety-nine peerless Star Emperors in the Longyuan World, eventually slaughtering everyone and then disappearing.
Since then, there have been no more legends about the Saber Demon.
But the black shark still heard some rumors, true or false, from others that the Saber Demon’s victory was not due to his great ability, nor any other reason.
He relied on a super demon sword capable of continuously devouring enemies’ Star Power and Life Force.
By enduring long enough, he managed to kill those ninety-nine peerless emperors one by one.
If he hadn’t been devoured by Lu Lin’s One-Eyed Demon Knife before, the black shark might have almost forgotten about this.
The ability to devour spiritual strength is definitely not something ordinary Cultivation Methods can achieve.
But whether he, or others, come to face Lu Lin, the problem with the One-Eyed Demon Knife is unavoidable.
At this time, he thought of a point.
In those years, among the Hundreds of Gods, E Shi, Red Dragon, and more than a dozen other companions, their spiritual strength was naturally mutated, and Lu Lin’s specialty could not easily harm them.
Fortunately, when E Shi and Red Dragon were checking the situation near the endless sea, the black shark left something in the dark, which allowed him to find them and persuade them to come here to deal with Lu Lin.
Now it seems that the black shark’s calculation was on point.
Lu Lin’s spiritual strength had only undergone one metamorphosis and was not a threat to the spiritual bodies of Red Dragon and E Shi.
Red Dragon and E Shi, against Lu Lin, were a dimensional reduction strike.
You can’t hit me.
But I can slowly erode and devour you.
Especially when they saw Lu Lin could only perform futile tasks, both of their hearts were steady.
If they had known Lu Lin was so weak, they wouldn’t have abandoned their flesh bodies to flee earlier.
However, now they’ll use Lu Lin’s divining space to make up for the losses both incurred earlier.
Outside.
The Star Generals besieging Lu Lin saw him suddenly close his eyes, and none of them dared to approach, standing in the distance to watch.
Although Lu Lin had appeared at Between Beast and Mortal less than one day ago, many Star Generals had come to know his character well.
Seemingly lacking in ability, yet always holding back a card.
Seemingly injured and weak, yet actually pretending to feign weakness.
In situations where death seemed inevitable, Lu Lin could instantly escape to Bu Ming Villa to hide.
When trapped by the Qingmu Clan’s three brothers in a restrictive formation, with formations set to isolate Star Power all around.
He managed, with just a few words, to leave two dead and one fleeing among the Qingmu Clan’s three brothers.
Not to mention just now discovered, with the Eight-Armed Clan’s clan leader Shui Ni and four other Star Generals dead in Silence.
Now, Lu Lin, defenseless in appearance, seemed just like Zhuge Liang opening the city gates, sitting atop the city gate tower, drinking tea, and playing chess from those years.
This is the empty city strategy.
The many Star Generals present were all seasoned individuals, who would step forward first to become someone else’s stepping stone?
The outside world had fallen into an eerie silence, but within Lu Lin’s Consciousness Universe, he was anxiously watching the flames and death aura continuously spreading toward his Star Core.
His greatest trump card, the One-Eyed Demon Knife, was of no use.
Other things in the Consciousness Universe were even less useful.
Black and White Golden Beads.
Innate Golden Core.
Three master-servant contracts.
Star Power Domain.
Eyeball Star Core.
Two Star Veins.
None of these things had any attack power, nor could they prevent the spread and erosion of the death aura and flame breath.
Moreover, there was still a black shark that hadn’t taken action.
Lu Lin watched his spiritual energy gradually approaching him, feeling extremely panicked.
He couldn’t help but wonder what he had been cultivating all this time.
He hadn’t even protected his most important Consciousness Universe after Awakening.
No defensive measures, no means of counterattack.
At this moment, in the face of the enemy’s attack, he could only watch helplessly...
That’s right.
Lu Lin now gathered the Black and White Golden Beads, Innate Golden Core, and all three contracts near the Eyeball Star Core.
The scene at this moment was Lu Lin being at a loss, having no choice but to watch the opponent’s attack spread and erode.
Still, he was curious too.
With such powerful abilities, why didn’t Red Dragon and E Shi directly attack his Eyeball Star Core, but instead chose the slowest and steadiest method?
The same question lingered in the mind of the black shark.
Why.
"Red Dragon, E Shi, stop playing around, quickly control his Star of Destiny."
The black shark urged, but at this point, Red Dragon and E Shi, despite their overwhelming aura, had unspeakable difficulties.
Didn’t they want to control Lu Lin right away?
Didn’t they want to wrap things up and return?
But they couldn’t do it.
Entering someone else’s Divine Sense Space was not a new experience for the two; back in the Longyuan World, they had recklessly entered others’ Divine Sense Spaces with their peculiar spiritual power.
Whether it was killing, controlling, or seeking information, it was all too easy for them.
But within Lu Lin’s Divine Sense Space, the strength of the two was significantly suppressed.
Every step their mental energy extended toward the core was extremely difficult.
It was like walking in mud... no, as if walking in glue, where each step forward required tremendous consumption of their Soul Power (Spiritual Strength).
"Black shark, what’s this kid’s background? Every step we take forward drains our Soul Power massively."
"However, because of this, I’m even more curious about him."
Red Dragon said, a hint of greed flickering in his eyes.
There was obviously some kind of variation in Lu Lin’s Divine Sense Space. Whether at the beginning of this process or if the variation was relatively small, as long as they could uncover the reason for Lu Lin’s Soul Power variation, it would substantially benefit both him and E Shi.
In comparison, the loss of a flesh body would be negligible.
Suddenly.
While the three were secretly transmitting their voices, a cute and petite white dog’s figure suddenly appeared in Lu Lin’s Consciousness Universe.
"Xiao Bai?"
Lu Lin was taken aback, how did this fellow get in here too?
Xiao Bai glanced at Lu Lin’s Star Core, then turned its head, drooling, looking at the flames and death aura sweeping in.
"Aowoo."
Yummy stuff, here I come.
Xiao Bai called out and then jumped, trying to dash toward Red Dragon and E Shi’s mental figures.
However.
It found itself restricted, leaping up with effort, barely reaching a height of twenty centimeters.
If it wanted to jump to E Shi’s side, it would probably take three to five years to reach them.
"Aowoo."
Lu Lin, what’s going on? Why is your Divine Sense Space so laggy?
"Laggy?"
What do you mean?
Lu Lin was taken aback, and at this moment, the Eyeball Star Core, which had been quietly situated in the Consciousness Universe, suddenly began to move.
It started spinning around, first absorbing the nearby Black and White Golden Beads, Innate Golden Core, and three contracts into the Star Core.
When its attention focused on the Star Power Domain, the Star Power Domain suddenly transformed into an environment made up of eyeballs.
The gaze of the Eyeball Star Core shifted from the Star Power Domain and then looked at the One-Eyed Demon Knife.
The One-Eyed Demon Knife hurriedly revealed its true form, also an eye.
The Eyeball Star Core’s attention focused once again on the nearby figure of Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai shivered with fright immediately.
"You, don’t look at me, I’m Lu Lin’s friend!"
Xiao Bai directly said.
At the moment it was locked in the gaze of the eyeball, it felt as if it was about to die.
Lu Lin seemed to also realize something was wrong.
The Eyeball Star Core first absorbed the Black and White Golden Beads, Innate Golden Core, and three contracts, and now it focused on Xiao Bai.
What is going on, you are an eye, not a mouth.
Why do you want to eat everything?
