Chapter 8 - Millennium Old Freaks
"That"s right, I am originally from the Phecda Continent, and my Demonic Sect is also one of the most powerful demonic sects in the Phecda Continent. As for living for over 2500 years, hehe, for low level warriors like you who only exist in the countryside, over 2500 years of cultivation is something unattainable, but your martial arts cultivation has already reached my level, living for these few years is not that rare."The Chaotic Demon King said in an arrogant tone.
"So that"s how it is. May I ask what realm your cultivation has reached, and how old are you this year?" Li Mu asked.
As for my age, if I remember correctly, I am exactly two thousand eight hundred and thirty-five years old today, and today is coincidentally my birthday. Otherwise, do you think this old man would talk so much with a brat like you?"Two thousand eight hundred and thirty-five!" As our cultivation increases, our lifespan will increase. This junior knows very well, but no matter how much our lifespan increases, it won"t exceed several thousand years! Isn"t such a long lifespan the same as the lifespan of a land deity! "
Even though Li Mu was somewhat confident in his heart, he didn"t expect that the other party would actually live for such a long time.
"Hmph, with your low cultivation, you won"t understand many things. There"s no point in talking to you. Kid, how about we make a deal?"
Seeing Li Mu"s look of disbelief, the Lurker Demon King did not seem to have any plans to struggle, but instead changed the topic.
"Trade? What deal? Could it be that senior still needs this junior"s help with his sacred art? "
Li Mu had yet to react to the other party"s shocking words, but upon hearing that the other party wanted to make a trade with him, his expression immediately became grave.
"Brat, you"re not a brainless person. Don"t tell me you can"t guess this old man"s situation?" The Great Chaotic Demon King said in annoyance.
"Hehe, Senior, you are indeed worthy of being an existence that has lived for several thousand years. I actually can"t hide my little thoughts from you at all. Regarding the state you are in, I did guess a bit." Li Chong chuckled and said.
"Oh? "What did you guess? Speak, let me hear it!" The Heavenly Devil King said in an interested tone.
"Since senior wishes to speak, then junior will not be this polite. I hope senior will forgive me, but since senior is residing in the heliogram fragment, you must have sustained serious injuries. Otherwise, given senior"s ability, you shouldn"t have stayed here for more than a thousand years."
In addition, since senior is a self-proclaimed Demon King, he should not be a kind person. However, senior has yet to make a move against me, and there can only be two reasons for this kind of situation. One is that senior has not spoken to anyone for a very long time.
Li Mu stopped talking at this point, as if he was unable to say what he wanted to say.
"What is it? Don"t stutter. This King is sick of being bashful! ""Then I"ll be straightforward. The other is that Senior"s current state is extremely poor, and you don"t even have the strength to attack me anymore."
After Li Mu finished speaking, he did not speak anymore, and looked at the b.l.o.o.d.y rag, waiting for the other party"s reply.
"Good boy, since you have guessed that this king is not satisfied with you, then 2500 years ago, this old man was attacked by several experts of the same cultivation level." Good boy, since you have guessed that this king is not satisfied with you, then 2500 years ago, this old man was attacked by several experts of the same cultivation level.
"Those old b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, fighting one on one without one is not a match for me, they actually teamed up to deal with me, and that"s fine, but they actually ma.s.sacred my Demonic Sect, and didn"t even leave a single disciple, how can I not avenge this!"The voice of the Great Demonic G.o.d was icy cold, and it revealed a deep killing intent.
"Although I don"t know what senior meant by "Soldier G.o.d", I do understand the gist of it. Since that"s the case, why hasn"t senior gone to seek revenge?"Li Mu was puzzled, from the conversation he had with the other party, he realized that the Lord of Chaotic Demon was not someone who would let this matter go so easily.
"I do want to, but how can an existence at my level be so easy to deal with. Not to mention those old b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, even those forces on the surface are not easy to deal with."
"If I had been at my peak, I might have been able to fight, but after the war, my spirit would have been exhausted too much, and I would have had to pay a huge price to awaken once, so I could only choose to sleep for most of the time. Over the past two thousand years, I have awakened a total of a few times, and each time, it was only a few days, the rest of my time was spent in slumber."
The Great Demonic G.o.d helplessly explained.
"Oh? Then Senior"s awakening this time is …? Could it be that it will only be for a few days? "
After Li Mu heard this, a glint flashed past his eyes."This time is different from the last few times, my lifespan is almost up, it"s useless to sleep any longer. In fact, besides healing my wounds, the most important reason I slept for a long time is to preserve my Profound Qi, do you think that my remnant soul can really live this long?"
"How much lifespan does senior have left? What exactly is the deal that you mentioned to me?"
Li Mu had already started to come up with a plan. According to the Chaotic Demon King, he should not be at a disadvantage in this kind of transaction, instead, he should be able to obtain a huge advantage. After all, the other party was equivalent to a land deity.
"Originally, I had wanted to find someone with better talent to possess after recovering my primordial spirit, but who would have known that I would be brought to a place like this by that man, Xi Ri Tian, while I was sleeping. A thousand years later, not to mention a human, I haven"t even seen a single bird."Because of this, I have no choice but to make a deal with you. I can take you in as my disciple and pa.s.s on my powers to you without holding back. Not to mention surpa.s.sing me before my lifespan runs out, I have no problem reaching my original realm."
The Chaotic Demon King solemnly said.
"Oh? Senior is willing to take this junior as a disciple? This is truly the fortune that this junior has gained over the past few lifetimes. However, if senior truly treats me like this, there is no way you wouldn"t have a request, right? "
Although Li Mu was only twelve years old, he was not stupid, and was much more vigilant than most adults."Of course, there is no such thing as a free lunch. I want you to avenge me after your cultivation has reached a certain level!" It"s fine with those disciples of the Demonic Sect, but my wife, you nine concubines, I have no choice but to take revenge for the deaths of a dozen or so of my children! "
Chaotic Devil King showed his true colors, his tone was laced with grief and indignation.
"Senior, you think too highly of me, don"t you? Although my apt.i.tude is quite decent, it will be a bit difficult for me to take revenge on your behalf against so many enemies of the same rank as you, as well as their powers on the surface.""Besides, I do not wish to be used as a chess piece to avenge others. Although I can get endless benefits from working with you, I do not wish to be this tired and live for the sake of avenging others."
Li Mu thought for a while before he evaded. If he could, he would naturally be willing to have an old monster like the Chaotic Demon King to guide him in his cultivation. However, he was unwilling to be used as a p.a.w.n.
"Kid!" It is not wrong for you to think this carefully, but don"t worry, with this old man here ensuring that you have the strength to deal with them, if you are unable to avenge them, then help me collect some materials. Although the hope is not great, but if I really can gather them, then I am somewhat confident that I will be able to possess a body. "I still have nearly two hundred years of lifespan. If you reach the height of my past within two hundred years, then you will avenge me. If you do not, then I will not force you.
The Lurker Demon King did not know if it was because he felt that Li Mu"s words were reasonable, but his words had compromised.
I think this is it, then whatever you want me to become your disciple, I will not take advantage of you. Senior, please guide me in my training, I promise to do three things for you, and these three things are within my capabilities.
Li Mu said in all seriousness.
"Is this any different from taking me as your master?" After all, other than revenge, there is nothing else that I need you to do for me. " The Great Demonic G.o.d did not understand.
This is naturally different. If I were to become Senior"s disciple, then I will naturally accomplish everything Master has ordered me to do. Since Senior is going to become his disciple, then I will treat you like a master and disciple for the rest of my life.
It is precisely because of this that I have agreed to help senior with three things. However, these three things can only be done within the capabilities of this junior. Li Mu explained.The Great Demonic G.o.d fell into a rare silence. After a full ten breaths of time, he let out a soft sigh.
"Whatever. I"ll do as you say. The taste that you have for me is much more pleasing than those hypocrites who consider themselves to be from famous and upright sects."
"If that"s the case, then so be it. I hope that we can cooperate happily."
Li Mu heaved a sigh of relief, and said that he was not afraid. After all, the opponent was an old monster who had lived for thousands of years, and was a demonic cultivator who had trained in the Path of Demons Cultivation Method."Since Senior and I have reached an agreement, junior will now ask Senior a few questions. I hope Senior can answer that question."
Li Mu laughed mischievously.
"Go ahead.""What is senior"s real name?" Could he really be called the Chaotic Heavenly Demon King? " Li Mu asked with a smile.
"My real name is Chaotic Sky. The Demon King Chaotic Sky is just what the outside world calls me. As for you, since you don"t want to take me as your master, just call me whatever you want."
"Then does Senior Chaotic Sky have a way to let me leave this place?"
With your current cultivation level, even if you can make use of these vines, you won"t have a good chance of escaping. I"ve already used my Spiritual Sense to check out the exit of this place over the years, and there"s only one exit, but the terrain of the mountain range is very strange. From time to time, there are strange airflows moving around the entrance of the cave.
"Of course, if you can cultivate to the Innate Realm, there is a seventy percent chance of succeeding when coupled with the buddhist river crossing step. After all, the buddhist river crossing step is not something to play around with, and even this king"s footwork can"t be compared to light attacks, it"s worthy of being one of the Buddhist Seventy-Two." He replied shamelessly."Innate realm? Senior, could you be joking? There is no water source here, and this junior cannot be like a Xiantian master, making it difficult for me to persevere for even half a day. How can I have the time to cultivate to the Xiantian realm, plus it"s not that easy to break through to the Xiantian realm! "
Li Mu sighed.
"No food? Have you forgotten how the poison in your body was treated? "
The Chaotic Demon King did not care about what Li Mu said, and asked with a smile instead.
