When Mu Tong heard Lin Heng mention the inner demon, he actually grinned.
"I'm not the one who planted that inner demon in you."
Lin Heng was stunned.
It wasn't Mu Tong?
Then who else could have planted his inner demon?
Across the Four Seas and Eight Wastelands,
only three people had the ability to plant an inner demon in him
without him noticing: Primordial Chaos, Mu Tong, and Jian Yin.
Of the three, Mu Tong was the most likely.
But now, as Lin Heng and Mu Tong looked each other in the eye, Lin Heng could see nothing unusual in his gaze.
That made Lin Heng doubt his own suspicions instead.
Could someone else really have planted the inner demon in him?
Just then!
Mu Tong offered Lin Heng an explanation.
"The one who planted the inner demon in you was none other than yourself."
Mu Tong's words left Lin Heng even more bewildered.
He had planted an inner demon in himself,
and didn't even know it?
Wasn't that complete bullshit?
Mu Tong continued.
"This inner demon could also be called a test from Pangu's will."
"The reason I say you planted the inner demon yourself, rather than Pangu's will planting it in you,
"is that you are now at an extremely important turning point.
"This inner demon arose from your own universe world.
"Whether you can overcome it will also affect the height of your future peak."
Mu Tong seemed to have said a great deal, but Lin Heng noticed that he had left out many crucial details.
Why had the inner demon appeared?
What was Pangu's will?
And what kind of turning point was Lin Heng facing?
Mu Tong's words were supposed to explain things to Lin Heng,
yet they had raised quite a few more questions
