"Oh, so that means I have to fight my way through three thousand people and win first place, right?" Qi Ling thought for a moment and laughed, "That's really exhilarating! It's so exciting!"
"Kid, don't let your guard down just because you're invincible now. Your opponents are no ordinary people, and the Demon God Contention Battle isn't simple. There might even be times when all of you are stripped of your power, leaving you only to kill with the most primitive means!"
"This is a battle belonging to the Devil Realm, far more brutal than you can imagine! In this competition, death will be commonplace, and the final survivors may be less than one percent. Are you still willing to participate?"
Blood Devil originally thought that after he said that, even Qi Ling would feel uneasy because of the cruelty of the competition, or at least hesitate.
To his surprise, Qi Ling, upon learning of this situation, not only wasn't frightened, but even laughed and said, "Oh? There's such a thing? I can compete with others on a level playing field? That's great, that's more interesting!"
"Hahaha, I knew it! You're no wonder you're my reincarnation. Compared to that Old Dragon, my personality is much more exciting!" Blood Devil laughed. Qi Ling's choice was undoubtedly to his liking.
"Don't worry, kid, you're my reincarnation. No matter what, you're no worse than those good-for-nothings! However, you really need to be careful with those seven Demonic Soul; they're not easy to deal with."
Qi Ling deeply agreed with what the Blood Devil said. After all, these eight Demonic Soul were extremely powerful, at least in terms of strength. Even Xue Qinghe had to admit that, apart from Qi Ling, there were very few people who could subdue him.
"There's another question, Blood Devil," Qi Ling said at this moment, "When will you give me that Soul Ring you mentioned? It's not like the Dragon God, where the reward is only given to me after I pass the test, is it?"
The Blood Devil chuckled, "Heh heh, of course. The victor possesses everything, and the loser loses everything—this has always been the ironclad rule of the Devil Realm! You will only receive all the rewards after achieving final victory."
"However, since you are my reincarnation, I can't leave you without any preferential treatment! When you participate in the competition, I will give you a small gift as a token of my support."
Someone like Blood Devil, who loves to show off, wouldn't offer a small gift that wouldn't be anything simple; otherwise, he himself would feel it wouldn't be presentable. Qi Ling thought she could look forward to seeing what Blood Devil would actually give her.
"Ah, there's one more thing." Blood Devil seemed to suddenly remember something and laughed, "You brat, with so many girls on the island who like you, how come you've only managed to win over three? That's not quite right!"
"Sigh, never mind, let me help you out. No need to thank me, it's what I should do, hahaha!"
After saying this, the Blood Devil suddenly transformed into a sky full of blood mist again, and then all of it poured into Qi Ling's body. This time, compared to before, Qi Ling clearly felt that something was taking effect in her body.
"Holy crap, what did this guy do to me?" Qi Ling clutched her chest, feeling her heart suddenly race and her body break out in a cold sweat, as if a fire was burning inside her.
Thinking back to what the Blood Devil had said earlier—that he wanted to do her a favor—could it be that the guy had given her that kind of drug? But Qi Ling had never seen any drug that could take effect so quickly, and that she herself couldn't be immune to it.
Qi Ling was certain that this medicine was definitely not an ordinary one; it was very likely related to the Blood Devil's own power. If this guy wanted to mess with her, then she really had no way to deal with him and could only let him do as he pleased.
Qi Ling tried to calm himself down by practicing martial arts and meditation, but it was completely ineffective. Moreover, his heart rate gradually increased, reaching over a hundred beats per minute.
"Damn it, there's no other way. I'll have to ask the Dragon Maiden and see if she knows anything." Left with no other option, Qi Ling had to seek help from the Dragon Maiden, since she was arguably the person here who knew the Blood Devil best.
Upon seeing Qi Ling's appearance, the Dragon Maiden immediately covered her mouth, almost crying out, and anxiously asked Qi Ling, "Master, this... how did you get afflicted by the Threefold Blood Curse? Where is that Blood Devil? Has he reappeared?"
"Sigh, just leave that guy alone, he's already disappeared from my body again," Qi Ling said helplessly. " Dragon Maiden, what's the name of this Threefold Blood Curse you mentioned? How do I break it? I feel my heart pounding in my chest."
Upon hearing this, the Dragon Maiden blushed instantly, secretly spitting out her contempt, and said, "That damned Blood Devil! Just for inventing something like this, he should be hanged!"
"Master, this Threefold Blood Curse, once inflicted, will cause a person's sexual desires to become increasingly intense, and their body will become increasingly agitated due to the accelerated heartbeat! If it is not relieved, it will eventually drive them to madness and cause them to lose their reason!"
"Then, how can we break this curse? Is it just by having sex with a woman?" Qi Ling asked. Anyway, Xiao Wu, Rongrong, and Tuoliya were all there, so she wasn't really afraid.
"It's not that simple, Master. That's why I said this guy is a complete demon." The Dragon Maiden hesitated for a moment before saying, "Once you're under this curse, you need to have deep conversations with three different women to break the spell."
Just as Qi Ling a sigh of relief, the Dragon Maiden continued, "However, there are requirements for these three people! They must all be virgins, and it must be their first time! Only then will the yin energy within them be sufficient to dispel the power of this curse."
"Three people? And they all have to be virgins?" Qi Ling was speechless. How could someone have such a monstrous ability? This was practically murder.
"This, this..." Qi Ling hesitated for a moment, " Dragon Maiden, is there really no other way to deal with this?"
"Oh dear, Master, although I hate to admit it, that guy's power is indeed beyond our capabilities. You'll have to accept your fate," the Dragon Maiden said. "Fortunately, we have enough people who meet the requirements here. That guy must have considered this, which is why he cast such a powerful curse on you."
"You can wait here. The others should still be on the Dragon God Continent. I'll go and bring them back," the Dragon Maiden said with a smile. "That's great, Master. You've turned misfortune into blessing!"
