Chapter 287: [231~232] The Sword of the Heavenly Dao! Devour the memories of “God”! (Seeking monthly votes, recommendations, and support)_3
Above the thirty-meter-high ship deck, the Silver Art urged urgently.

Lou Hai found his opportunity, suppressed the sudden dizziness, and hurriedly activated his ability.

A spatial tunnel quickly formed.

“Demon King, hurry up!” Lou Hai shouted loudly.

Pei Jinye turned his head to look at Black Radiance, who was sweating cold sweat, “Demon King, the detonator seems to be broken.”

Pei Jinye silently looked at him.

Then he said, “Give me the detonator.”

Black Radiance handed it over, saying hurriedly, “I installed a total of 32 explosive devices, green light is the norm.”

“You go first.”

Pei Jinye took the detonator and pocketed it, his other hand holding one of the Sword Intent given to him by the Sword Immortal, vigilantly guarding the smoke-enshrouded ship bottom.

The sound of something tearing through the air came.

Pei Jinye slashed with his sword, but he didn’t use that particular Sword Intent.

Because with his own abilities alone he was more than capable of annihilating the humanoid monster that appeared.

Almost in an instant, a flash of Sword Light passed, and a humanoid monster dressed as a crew member was decapitated by his slash, swiftly followed by the severing of its limbs; Pei Jinye grabbed it up in one move.

Black Radiance was stunned by this scene, “Demon King, what is this?”

“Take it back for research.”

Pei Jinye’s succinct words made Black Radiance’s skin crawl.

But what Black Radiance found even more inconceivable was.

A strange noise came from the bottom of the ship, and those roaring humanoid monsters all retreated back to the bottom of the ship, leaving only the rolling smoke… as if nothing had happened.

Black Radiance was filled with disbelief.

Even the people like Silver Art at the top of the ship were all stupefied.

“What happened?”

Pei Jinye clenched the Sword Intent given by the Sword Immortal tightly, because he felt an inexplicable gaze upon him, making all the hairs on his body stand on end.

This was probably the first time he encountered such a terrifying crisis.

“Demon King.” Suddenly, Silver Art spoke; she seemed to have sensed something as well.

The others were all puzzled.

Pei Jinye, without turning his head, said, “You guys go in first! Lou Hai, cover me!”

“Okay!” Lou Hai responded.

Little Red Luo tugged at the hem of Silver Art’s clothes, but Silver Art hesitated as she watched Pei Jinye’s retreating figure.

“Go!” Pei Jinye’s low voice came.

Obeying, Silver Art entered the spatial tunnel.

Pei Jinye’s gaze firmly fixed on the ship bottom shrouded in smoke; he stayed because a vague voice had risen from the bottom of the ship.

And the only reason Pei Jinye understood it was entirely due to the Extraordinary Talent of Beast Resonance being crucial.

(“A very Powerful Sword Intent has awakened my will.”)

The sound of his heartbeat grew clearer.

Feeling a surge of power, Pei Jinye tried to communicate.

The other side fell silent, also interrupting the process of the power surge.

At this moment, everyone had already passed into the spatial tunnel.

The last to remain, Lou Hai, suddenly changed his expression and called out loudly, “Demon King, I feel a power suppressing my Transcendence… I think I can’t hold on much longer.”

Pei Jinye’s scalp tingled.

Because at a frequency that others could not hear, a voice rose at the bottom of his heart.

(“You, a mere human being, can actually hear my voice.”)

Pei Jinye’s gaze intensified, “If I say I have no ill intentions, would you believe me?”

A massive Shadow seemed to be hiding right below the smoke.

“Demon King…”

Lou Hai shouted loudly; the spatial tunnel in front of him was on the brink of collapse.

“Go first, find a way to come back for me. I’ve been targeted and can’t get away,” Pei Jinye said without turning his head.

Seeing this, Lou Hai quickly dived into the spatial tunnel.

At the same time.

This space felt completely isolated.

Even Tian Heng, who was in a surveillance state, suddenly covered his eyes and screamed.

“My eyes!”

…

Within the vast smoke at the ship’s bottom, a voice at a frequency not meant for human ears resonated within Pei Jinye’s heart.

(“Submit to me, and I shall grant you immortal power.”)

Pei Jinye raised his hand, the Sword Intent pure, “You ask it if it agrees!”

The bottom of the ship fell silent.

(“No one can refuse me… human being, you have declined the gift of a God Spirit; do you comprehend what that implies?”)

“Actually, I too am a God! What kind of God are you? I can tell you clearly that I do not belong to this era; I am the Mysterious Sovereign above the gray fog; I am the King of Yellow And Black, the harbinger of good fortune; some call me the patron of the Spiritual World and Source Fortress; I am the enigma from the ancient times, the witness of a long history…” Pei Jinye spoke brazenly, his mind continuously modeling and rapidly thinking of ways out.

He was now completely in the spotlight.

Had he tried to leave just now, the other party would surely have opted to kill everyone.

But now…

Chaotically!

Pei Jinye felt more and more that he was at a loss… he hadn’t gained anything and had to bear such great risk.

The other party actually referred to itself as a “God”…

But he was farting, right?

Is this the grace of a God?

That voice rose slowly: (“I… have not heard of this name.”)

“Of course you haven’t heard of it, confined to this small world, like a frog in a well playing the fool, how could you possibly have heard my name…” Pei Jinye felt the gaze upon him receding and his heart eased slightly.

But the next moment.

The ship’s bottom’s thick fog seemed to bring that dark shadow closer still.

(“I have never sensed your life principles on you.”)

Pei Jinye raised his hand and took out another Sword Intent, two portions of Sword Intent intertwined, increasing his aura.

“Your probing will bring you misfortune. However, as a distinguished guest from afar, you may tell me your situation—in accordance with the principle of equal exchange, I can lend you a helping hand.”
