This actor is full of tricks.

got windy.

A violent wind raged through the tollbooth, fluttering Lin Jue's clothes and stirring up the blood-red night. Ripples spread outwards, and in the center of those circles, a snow-white hand, as delicate as a lotus root, reached out.

The falling ashes began to swirl back, and then a second hand reached out, grasping the blood-red night as if it were a solid object, and then ripped it apart violently.

The blood-red night was torn open like a piece of cloth, and a three- or four-meter-long rift appeared in the blood-red night. No figure could be seen behind the rift, only countless ashes.

"This guy made such a cool entrance?" Lie Zang muttered sourly. Compared to Jin Mie, his entrance was rather lackluster, and his ending after his appearance was also quite tragic.

However, thinking about what Jinmie was about to encounter, he laughed with schadenfreude.

From the boundless ashes, a figure slowly emerged. It was a humanoid creature with a woman's body but a man's head, and the features on its head were particularly disproportionate, as if the features had been taken from different people and pieced together.

As soon as the figure appeared, the terrifying and eerie pressure intensified even further, and the air itself emitted a teeth-grinding squeezing sound.

"Hi! Annihilation!"

Despite the oppressive force, Lin Jue's back remained upright, and he even took the time to wave to the sky.

The figure's expression was initially somewhat confused, but upon hearing Lin Jue's voice, he instantly realized what was happening, his face contorting in shock: "It's you!"

His voice sounded neither male nor female, as if there were two people stuffed in his throat.

He would never forget the guy in front of him. He could have descended at his peak, but this human destroyed five shrines, which greatly weakened his strength, and everything he had done before was in vain.

“That’s right, it’s me. You might know him too.” Lin Jue pointed to Lie Zeng, who was watching the show from the side.

Jinmie shifted his gaze to Liezeng, scrutinized him for a moment, and then suddenly realized something: "Liezeng?"

After saying that, he looked as if he had just realized something: "I was just saying, how could a human insect possibly kill all my followers? Rift, you must have played a part in this, right?"

"You were the first to escape, yet you ended up like this, your body even belonging to my followers, like a stray dog. Are you trying to regain your strength by devouring my things?"

Jinmie harbored deep resentment and unleashed its full power upon appearing, even verbally abusing Liezeng.

"No, what does this have to do with me?" Liezeng was stunned by the scolding. He pointed at himself and said, "The death of your so-called believer has nothing to do with me. I just met this kid."

"However, you are right about one thing. I do recover my strength by consuming your things. No, to be precise, I have already reached a cooperation agreement with this kid. Once I kill you, I can directly consume you."

Jinmie scoffed, "As expected of a stray dog. A dignified and extremely vicious villain has actually stooped to cooperating with the living. Liezang, you're really getting worse as you get older."

Liezeng wasn't angry at all, he just sneered, "You should figure out your current situation first."

"Get your facts straight?" Jinmie was practically laughing until tears streamed down his face. His androgynous laughter was particularly grating. "What do you think you're going to do to me, you human insect and you crippled, extremely vicious creature?"

"Did you know I was hungry after my arrival, so you came here to offer your body as a sacrifice?" His words were full of mockery and sarcasm; he was a master of verbal sparring.

"Do you understand what sacrificial offerings mean?" Lin Jue asked slowly. "They're things given to the dead."

"So, you knew in advance that you were destined to die?"

"Hahaha! Ha...ha..." Just as Jinmie was about to burst into laughter, his laughter abruptly stopped the next moment.

Lin Jue slowly took out his raincoat and took out the ghosts one by one.

In an instant, He Wen and the others' resentment merged together, forming a black storm that soared into the sky, rivaling the eerie pressure carried by Jinmie.

For the first time, a look of shock appeared on Jinmie's face. He could clearly sense the strength of He Wen and the others.

Three A-grade, one B-grade, and if you include Rift, that makes a total of four A-grade.

If he were still at his peak, killing an A-level anomaly would be a piece of cake. But now that he has lost most of his strength, he could very well be killed in the face of so many A-level enemies.

"Oh! Right! There's a guy who just woke up, and I forgot to have him come out and meet you." Lin Jue seemed to remember something and softly called out, "Bi Zheng."

The previously silent atmosphere was suddenly broken by the sound of chains. Countless black chains appeared between heaven and earth, and Bi Zheng's figure crawled out from under his raincoat. The resentment that filled the surroundings was like a pot of oil that had been lit, and the storm that formed was howling violently.

Another Grade A!
The expression on Jinmie's face changed, and even Liezeng looked on in shock, wondering to himself, "Where did this kid get so many A-rank monsters? And they all seem to be following him willingly. What kind of charisma does this kid have?"

A strange feeling rose in his heart, as if following Lin Jue wasn't such a bad thing. With so many A-levels around, and with the dense fog area sealed off, he could safely recover to his peak condition.

"You!" Jinmie's features twisted together, whether from surprise or fear, he never expected that the human insects he could easily crush would have so many strange helpers.

This shattered his previous confidence; the situation had spiraled beyond his expectations. He was now ashen-faced and unable to utter a single word.

As he had anticipated, he would arrive, find this damned human, crush him with an air of superiority, look down on him, watch him kneel on the ground begging for mercy, and then be devoured piece by piece.

But now it seems that his chances of winning are even lower.

Lin Jue rubbed his neck with one hand and said lightly, "Talking with your head tilted back is really tiring. Bi Zheng, Lie Zeng, you two go and drag that guy down."

Although he has the advantage in numbers, his monsters have an inherent flaw: none of them can fly except for Rift, while Ember has the advantage in the sky.

Therefore, he had to drag his opponent to the ground and shift the battlefield to the ground.

Favorable timing, advantageous location, and harmonious relationships are the fundamental elements for victory, and he must possess all of them!
