By now, Ling Tian and the others were quite certain that the Lord of the Universe needed something from Ling Tian. Under the circumstances, even if Ling Tian triggered the final tribulation right now, he would have a good chance of breaking free from the Lord of the Universe's restraints. At worst, he wouldn't be killed.
Corpse Fragrance naturally hoped Ling Tian would break free from the Lord of the Universe's restraints as soon as possible. After all, that meant he could escape the Lord of the Universe's control. In his heart, he even believed he might be able to escape Ling Tian and Po Qiong's control and oppression as well. In particular, Corpse Fragrance had no wish to let anyone—not even the Lord of the Universe—decide his fate. He believed he could only fully escape the Lord of the Universe's influence once Ling Tian had broken free. That was why he hoped Ling Tian would trigger the final tribulation sooner rather than later.
As for escaping Ling Tian and Po Qiong's suppression and control, there was still a chance. For instance, when Ling Tian triggered the final tribulation and broke free from the Lord of the Universe's restraints, he would surely be extremely weak. Corpse Fragrance might then betray Ling Tian and gain his freedom. In fact, he considered it his only chance.
That was why Corpse Fragrance so eagerly hoped Ling Tian would trigger the final tribulation ahead of time.
Seeing that Ling Tian hadn't said anything, Corpse Fragrance continued, "Don't worry. The Lord of the Universe surely won't bear to kill you, so you have nothing to fear. Triggering the final tribulation early will let you break free from his restraints early, and you'll be able to obtain Primordial Chaos Qi sooner and rescue all your friends
