Chapter 229 Demon Lord - Imotar

Imorthal (Legend): Demon Lord, Level 92, HP???
The devil slowly lowered his head and his eyes fell on Chu Cheng. In an instant, an indescribable pressure came over him.

"Human, I admire your courage!"

Imotar spoke slowly, his voice rising and falling, each byte containing an inexplicable power that swayed one's heart.

"I have been thinking about how to find you and bring you back to my territory, but I didn't expect you to come to me on your own."

He turned around and looked around, his eyes paused at the place where several teammates had left:
"It turns out there are a few little mice."

Then he turned back, looked him up and down with great admiration, and said with a smile:

"I admire your courage and ability. You are sweeter now than before. My promise is still valid. Sign a contract with me and you can leave here safely."

As soon as he finished speaking, Imotar paused for a moment, then suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed in the direction where Fang Xi and the others left.

Chu Cheng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly had a gleam in his eyes and disappeared.

"Time lock!"

Imothar suddenly became motionless and unable to move, his movements interrupted.

But the time lock only lasted less than half a second before he forcibly resisted the time lock, slowly turned his head, his pupils swelled with flames, and pointed at him. In an instant, he felt the sky collapse and the whole world pressed down on him, unable to move.

Imothar didn't seem to be angry about their escape. He slowly flew in front of him, waved his hand, and the flames gathered to form a scroll of fire. On it were delicate patterns and lines of devilish words that he didn't recognize but understood their meaning.

The general meaning is that after signing the soul agreement, when he dies in the future, his soul will belong to Imothar in accordance with the contract.

This is the superficial meaning. As for whether there are other hidden contents, Chu Cheng cannot tell.

But he guessed that there was a high probability that other content was hidden.

After all, they are the devil's basic operations. They like to hide the content in the contract and not tell the contractor, and then tell the contractor after he signs the contract, and then enjoy the contractor's anger and despair.

Although the devil belongs to the camp of order and is very rule-abiding, he is an evil devil after all.

so.
Chu Cheng raised his head and looked straight at Imotar, and asked in a deep voice:
"What will happen if I don't sign?"

Imotar smiled and said:

"You broke into my palace and stole, causing damage to my property. I will catch the thief and take his soul as compensation!"

"Then why don't you just do it, instead of asking me to sign this contract?"

"Because the fruit is not ripe enough and not delicious enough!"

Chu Cheng
Understand instantly.

I've heard before that for powerful devils and demons, souls are their currency, and the better the soul, the higher its value.

They like to seduce some souls in the material plane that they think are valuable, lure them into signing contracts, and provide various kinds of help to help them grow. When the fruit slowly matures and reaches a certain level, the contract will take effect and they can be harvested.

An ordinary soul can certainly not compare to the soul of a professional.

The soul of an ordinary professional is definitely not as good as that of an extraordinary professional.

And extraordinary professionals are definitely not as good as legendary professionals.

The soul of a legendary warrior is the best currency for the upper devil lords. After obtaining the soul, they can directly transform it into a legendary upper devil.

Because they are souls harvested through contracts and influenced by certain laws, the transformed legendary devils completely obey the orders of the devil lord and are absolutely loyal. They are the best and most core assets of a devil lord.

Souls that are not harvested by contract are relatively more independent and not as obedient, so the Demon Lord cannot completely control them.

Of course Chu Cheng would not sign this contract. With a thought, he activated the time shelter and disappeared from the spot in a flash. The next moment, he appeared at the door of the lounge and appeared on the platform in 0.3 seconds. The portal on the platform had disappeared, but he did not see his men either.

Without hesitation, he looked towards the vast hell outside, and it appeared at the end of his sight in a flash.

Inside the castle, a hint of surprise flashed in Imotar's eyes. He reached out and took back the contract. He looked up in a certain direction and smiled slightly:
“It’s actually the power of time!”

"This is the most delicious fruit I have ever seen. You can't escape from my grasp!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Demon Lord's huge body disappeared like a bubble.

In the vast land of hell, Chu Cheng's figure flashed quickly, flashing once at a long distance every 0.1 seconds until the end of the field of vision.

In just a second, the Devil Lord's castle disappeared from view, but the sky and the earth were still gray and red, the earth was barren, and all kinds of hellish creatures were wandering everywhere.

But the warning in Chu Cheng's heart did not disappear even though he escaped quickly. It lingered in his mind and never dissipated.

He fled madly, rushing thousands of kilometers in one breath. At the sixth stage, Chu Cheng stopped at a crater that was spewing lava.

The high temperature and scorching heat were overwhelming. There were some rough buildings in the crater. Some devil blacksmiths were guiding the lava in the crater down, cooling it under the volcano, and forging it into weapons.

Several devil overseers spotted him and rushed over with barbed whips.

But as soon as he started, fear showed on his face and he turned around and ran.

Chu Cheng looked up and Imotar appeared in the crater. He stood beside Chu Cheng and did not look at him. Instead, he spoke to himself:

"Despair is also a kind of deliciousness. Maybe you haven't given up yet. It doesn't matter. I can give you this chance."

"You can continue to escape by any means. I will give you one day. I will find you in one day, and then you will accept the reality."

After saying this, his figure disappeared like a bubble.

Chu Cheng
He frowned and opened the panel, but there was no prompt on it.

After a moment of silence, he carefully felt the power of time flowing through his body, and then disappeared again in a flash.

He escaped thousands of kilometers in one breath again, and at the twelfth second of Time Shelter, he appeared on the top of a small hill somewhere in the vast red land, and quickly took out the legendary teleportation scroll and activated it.

The space was surging, but Imothar did not appear.

But Chu Cheng did not relax. He looked around nervously, but did not find any trace of Imothar.

"Didn't catch up?"

"impossible!"

"There must be a back-up plan."

As the thought came to his mind, he suddenly realized something and turned around abruptly, seeing the flame burning on the legendary teleportation scroll in his hand.

"grass!"

There was no time to react, the space had changed, and in an instant he returned from the red earth to the familiar Imotar Palace.

He slowly raised his head and saw Imotar still standing there, looking at him with his hand on his chin and a smile on his face.

He did not do anything, but just extended his hand and made a gesture of invitation:
"You have one more day."

"leave!"
