After Lin Heng left the Blood Return Demon Domain with Chu Duanhun.
Then, Chu Duanhun led Lin Heng through several great teleportations, directly arriving at the Crimson Palace where Dasiwoba was located.
The two had just stepped into the palace.
A sense of oppression instantly swept through the palace.
Lin Heng frowned slightly and followed Chu Duanhun step by step forward.
High in the palace, Dasiwoba, dressed in a long black robe and wearing a skull and jade ring on his thumb, was smiling at Lin Heng.
"I didn't expect we'd meet so soon."
"Thinking back to when Mu Chen disappeared, it feels like it was just yesterday."
Lin Heng narrowed his eyes and replied softly:
"But in the memories I learned from Mu Chen..."
"It seems there isn't a very good relationship between you two."
Dasiwoba wasn't angry when Lin Heng saw through his fake smile; he simply changed the subject.
"I have already ascertained Sibada Haoli's cultivation level."
Although he is still at the Late-stage Creation Realm Great Perfection, he has already stepped into a higher level.
"Although you possess five layers of universes, it is sufficient for you to fight across realms."
"But how confident are we in defeating the Sibada Haoli?"
Even Dasiwoba no longer had absolute confidence in Lin Heng this time.
Of course, he wasn't concerned about Lin Heng's life or death.
The key point is that Lin Heng is an important step in his plan to disrupt the Four Seas.
Lin Heng was killed by Sibada Haoli during the Heavenly Sea Contest.
His plan was Destruction before it even began.
This was naturally something he couldn't tolerate.
Lin Heng shrugged and said casually:
"I've never fought in this war, so I don't know."
The simple five-word reply drew a look of displeasure from Dasiwoba.
"If you lose, the Sibada Haoli will not give you a chance to live."
"Don't think that just because Hongjun is here, the people of the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea won't dare to kill you."
"For Hermoz, all he needs is to obtain Mu Chen's legacy from you."
He wouldn't care about Hongjun.
Lin Heng was certainly aware of this.
Didn't Hermoz send people to hunt me down on my way from the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea to the Western Celebratory Demon Sea?
If he truly respected Hongjun, why would he act this way?
Lin Heng maintained his calm expression.
"I embarked on the path of cultivation."
"Either reach the summit, or die at the hands of the enemy."
If you don't even have this much awareness, how can you talk about the future?
Unexpectedly, Dasiwoba burst into laughter after hearing Lin Heng's words.
"Haha! Funny! Funny!"
"Your temperament is exactly the same as Mu Chen's back then."
"If that's the case, how about we make another bet?"
Lin Heng became interested, but instead of speaking, he simply nodded in acknowledgment to Dasiwoba.
Dasiwoba grinned and shared his thoughts.
"In this Heavenly Sea Contest..."
"If you kill even one person from the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea..."
"How about I let you choose one item from my collection?"
The terms offered by Dasiwoba were indeed hard to refuse.
He is the lord of the mighty Western Celebratory Demon Sea.
His collection can only be described as terrifying.
Killing a person from the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea allows you to choose one item from their collection.
This condition would be impossible for most people to resist.
But Lin Heng didn't seem to care.
Since Dasiwoba was able to offer such terms...
That proves that his ambitions are even greater than those of those rare collectibles.
Thinking of this, Lin Heng couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
"I only promised you that I would represent the Western Celebratory Demon Sea in the battle and do my best to achieve a good ranking."
"But that doesn't mean I'm willing to be your pawn."
Dasiwoba's collection is certainly impressive, but is it really necessary to go through all this trouble to get something out of him?
The other person's words also reminded Lin Heng.
While Dasiwoba remained silent, Lin Heng casually activated the Sign-In System.
[Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in at the Crimson Palace of the Western Celebratory Demon Sea.]
[The host has received a system reward: the First-Class Innate Heavenly Punishment Universe Treasure Demon Sin Spear.]
Heavenly Punishment Universe Treasure are divided into innate and acquired types, and their grades are divided into first-class, second-class, and third-class.
Innate Heavenly Punishment Universe Treasure usually possess stronger special effects.
The Acquired Heavenly Punishment Universe Treasure is no weaker than the Innate Heavenly Punishment Universe Treasure in terms of attack and defense, but it does not have any special effects.
After successfully signing in, Lin Heng quickly checked the Demon Sin Spear.
The Demon Sin Spear, First-Class Innate Heavenly Punishment Universe Treasure, comes with special effects: Universe Suppression and Space Shattering.
Generally speaking, a Innate Heavenly Punishment Universe Treasure only comes with one special effect.
The Demon Sin Spear comes with two special effects, which already makes its value obvious.
In particular, these two special effects are both top-tier special effects.
Universe Suppression: Drawing a circle around oneself, it can completely isolate the cosmic energy of others within a certain space.
Space Shattering: When attacking, it can Space Shattering and ignore the effects of laws.
Using these two special effects together in battle can definitely produce unexpected results.
After examining the special effects of the Demon Sin Spear, Lin Heng chuckled softly.
This weapon most likely belongs to Dasiwoba.
Isn't this kind of exploitation more beneficial than cooperating with him and currying favor?
At this moment, Dasiwoba, who had been silent for several seconds, finally made a move.
" Lin Heng, since you don't appreciate it, I won't try to persuade you any further."
"I hope that during the Heavenly Sea Contest, your fists will be as hard as your mouth."
After saying that, Dasiwoba closed his eyes.
Seeing this, Chu Duanhun shook his head helplessly, and then led Lin Heng away from the blood-red palace.
Upon reaching the palace, Chu Duanhun turned back to Lin Heng and said:
"I know you possess Mu Chen's legacy."
"But do you know that even Mu Chen's collection can't compare to yours, sir?"
Chu Duanhun's words were not untrue.
Mu Chen was indeed a level above Dasiwoba in strength back then.
However, he did not occupy any territory, and the resources he obtained were naturally incomparable to those of the Lord of the Four Seas.
Chu Duanhun's words were meant to remind Lin Heng that it wasn't too late to back out, and that he could take Lin Heng back.
But Lin Heng wouldn't take back what he'd already said.
Thank you for your kindness.
"I've always been used to being free and have no intention of cooperating with others."
Seeing that Lin Heng continued to do as he pleased, Chu Duanhun simply stopped talking.
He then took Lin Heng back to the Blood Return Demon Domain and told him that he would come to pick Lin Heng up in three days to go to the Southern Spirit Sacred Sea to participate in the Heavenly Sea Contest.
After leaving the Blood Return Demon Domain, Chu Duanhun returned to the Crimson Palace immediately.
Dasiwoba was also waiting for him inside the palace.
"My lord, Lin Heng has been sent Blood Return Demon Domain."
I also tried to persuade him along the way.
But Lin Heng was too stubborn and did not agree.
Dasiwoba waved his hand in response.
Perhaps Lin Heng wasn't unmoved by the conditions I proposed.
"It's not that he's already gotten what he wanted."
