Chapter 325 Electrolux Appears, Confronting the Demon Emperor
As for his origins, Electrox felt a strange urge to mention them in front of the Demon Emperor.
He made a contribution to the reason why the demons were able to occupy human territory so easily when they descended upon the Holy Demon Continent.
At this point in time, it's quite embarrassing.
"Your Majesty, two against one might not be enough to win, but now it's three against one. Do you think you can still win?"
"Your Majesty, Demon God Emperor, do you still think you can get what you want from this dream paradise?" Lin Hai asked rhetorically.
Lin Hai's words were vulgar, but also incredibly irritating.
"You are threatening me!" The Demon Emperor's tone turned dangerous.
"No, no, no, I believe that harmony is the most important thing in everything."
"We know exactly what you want and what you're going to do."
"All you want is to become a god."
"Pursuing strength is understandable, but the premise is that your strength is sufficient to fulfill your wishes."
"Hmph, I will come again. I want to see what you will use to stop me then." Trying to gather allies is as easy as saying anyone can do it.
After meeting Lin Hai and Electrolux, he made up his mind to immediately launch a full-scale war upon returning.
"Your Majesty, wait!" Just as the Demon Emperor turned to leave Dream Paradise, Lin Hai called out to him.
"What else do you want?" the Demon Emperor said indifferently.
"Your Majesty, why don't we sit down and talk? I think what I have to say will be of great interest to you," Lin Hai said mysteriously.
"What could you ants possibly have to interest me?"
"Feeding the little guy, you wouldn't happen to be trying to recruit him into your plan, would you?"
"Yes."
"His situation is similar to yours, but there are also differences."
"The Demon Emperor is naturally gifted with extraordinary talent, possessing a million-level inner spiritual power. However, like me, he is not from this world. If he wants to advance further, he needs to obtain a godhood."
"Unlike you, Elder Yi, neither of us can become gods on our own. Of course, you don't like the gods of this world either."
"Otherwise, with your talent, you would have reached that level long ago."
"Hehehe, little fox!" The two ended their brief mental exchange.
"The Demon Emperor, is it? It's been a long time since I've seen a powerhouse like you. Let's come down and have a chat!"
"Interesting!" the Demon Emperor murmured softly.
"It's been a long time since anyone dared to speak to me like this."
"Then I will accept your invitation. I want to see what other tricks you have up your sleeve."
Electrolux waved his hand, and instantly a set of exquisite and elegant table and chairs appeared in the air. "Please!"
"The power of rules!"
"Are you trying to intimidate me?" Demon Emperor Feng Xiu's eyes narrowed slightly.
A short while later, the Demon Emperor and the Lin Hai group, who had been on the verge of exchanging blows, sat down together.
This situation was made possible by the near-equal strength of both sides.
"Speak! What do you have to say that will interest me?" Demon Emperor Feng Xiu said casually, picking up an exquisite tea set.
"Has Your Majesty ever wondered about my origins?" Lin Hai put down his teacup upon hearing this.
"Although my demon race has only been on this Holy Demon Continent for a little over six thousand years, I still know about the Dream Paradise, the relic left behind by the Goddess of Nature."
"Previous Demon Emperors have all descended upon this place!" As he spoke, the Demon Emperor's eyes turned to the elven dragon.
"Hmph!" The dragon, transformed into an old man, let out a cold snort.
Because the current Demon God Emperor Fengxiu is the third Demon God Emperor it has encountered.
"So, I'm pretty sure you weren't one of the original people in Dream Paradise. Of course, I'm very curious about who you are!" The Demon Emperor's gaze turned to Lin Hai again.
"I am just like His Majesty!"
"Hmm?!" The Demon Emperor's eyes narrowed slightly.
"I see, hehehehehe!"
"You don't belong to this world!"
Demon Emperor: "I'm starting to get curious about what you're trying to say!"
Adhering to the principle of "if you can't beat them, have some tea," they are currently getting along quite harmoniously.
"I am indeed not from this world. I come from another dimension. In our world, spiritual power is not the power we cultivate."
"I can vouch for him on that point," Electrox interjected.
"Oh?" The Demon Emperor's eyes lit up slightly. He looked at Ilex, a hint of doubt and curiosity flashing in his eyes.
"Electra, and who are you?" The Demon Emperor's tone was somewhat probing.
"Me?" Electrox smiled slightly. "I am from the Holy Demon Continent. Long ago, I was the most outstanding mage."
"A magician?" The Demon Emperor frowned slightly. He was familiar with the term; there were demon gods among their race skilled in magic, and he himself had dealt with many people who knew magic.
"I don't think it's absurd at all; in fact, it was part of my past glory. Demon Emperor, if you truly understood the history of the Holy Demon Continent, you should know who was responsible for your demon race's ability to so quickly conquer human territory after your arrival on the Holy Demon Continent?"
"Oh? You mean that war of infighting among your human race before our demon race descended?" The Demon Emperor raised an eyebrow.
"Those people deserve to die, hypocritical scoundrels," Electrox said with a hint of resentment.
"According to the information that my demon race obtained from the historical records of your human race, it seems that a powerful mage has emerged among your human race, who single-handedly fought against the entire continent."
"Which magician? In my opinion, that must be you?"
"However, I find your attributes quite strange, as you possess the light attribute, which is completely opposite to mine. But the strong aura of death emanating from you makes me feel that you are contradictory."
There's one thing he hasn't said yet, and that is, you're a serious magician, aren't you?
"That's forbidden magic!" Electrox said softly.
"Forbidden magic?" A strange light flashed in the Demon Emperor's eyes. He didn't know much about magic, but the word "forbidden" made him feel a strange sense of danger.
"Yes, forbidden magic, necromancy!"
The Demon Emperor was somewhat moved upon hearing this, for he had guessed something. "You have actually perfectly fused two completely opposing attributes!"
"If that's the case, then why didn't you stand up when my demon race launched a massive attack on your human territory? Or is it that you don't care about humans at all, or perhaps, you—are injured!" The Demon Emperor said, enunciating each word clearly.
Lin Hai and the others all sensed the Demon Emperor's probing intent.
"That's right, I am indeed injured, seriously injured, but now! Your Majesty the Demon Emperor may give it a try!" Ilex looked at the Demon Emperor.
The Demon Emperor is now uncertain. If he is truly cured, he might suffer a great loss against three powerful enemies.
"Actually, if I wanted to become the god you're looking for, I would have created my own godhood and ascended to godhood long ago!" Electrox dropped another bombshell on the Demon Emperor. Seriously, Electrox wasn't bragging.
"Oh?" the Demon Emperor said indifferently.
But in fact……
"Creating a godhood?" A glint flashed in the Demon Emperor's eyes. He could create a godhood too, but the limitations of the rules made it impossible for him.
"Since you already have the qualifications to become a god, why haven't you done so? Are you too badly injured? Or are you too greedy for this world?" Demon God Emperor Fengxiu had replaced the tea with his favorite wine, and he spoke while swirling the wine glass.
"God? Hah!" Electrox's tone was full of disdain.
Electrolux's disdain only fueled the Demon Emperor's curiosity about this fellow named Electrolux. Because of the rules, he possessed power comparable to a demigod yet lacked the experience of a god, and had no idea of the price of becoming a god.
Electrolux glanced at Demon Emperor Fengxiu lightly, "Do you know the price one has to pay to become a god in our world?"
"This is something I truly do not know, for the rules here do not allow me to create my own godhood!"
The Demon Emperor was implying that he too was qualified to create his own godhood, but was simply restricted by the rules of this world.
The Demon Emperor's words made Ilex gaze intently at the Demon Emperor Fengxiu.
At his level, his ability to use the power of rules means that he has a considerable understanding of the rules.
According to the rules of the Holy Demon Continent, anyone whose inner spiritual power breaks through to the million level will immediately ascend to godhood, and nothing can stop them.
With Electrolux's talent and strength, he should have broken through to one million inner spiritual power long ago after all these years; he's just suppressing it.
As for a powerful being like the Demon Emperor, in theory, he should also become a god after his inner spiritual power breaks through to the million level. However, the rules of this world only allow people from this world to become gods, while people from outside this world must rely on a divine title to become gods.
"If you knew what becoming a god meant, perhaps you would hesitate as well," he said.
"Hehehe! This emperor will not!"
"Do you know the kind of pain I endured after my inner spiritual power broke through to a million?!"
"I think you should be well aware of those who are close to gods and can wield the power of rules."
"Then do you know what becoming a god means?" Electrox countered.
"Becoming a god means abandoning your physical body, transforming your spirit into divine consciousness, and letting that consciousness return to the origin of the world!"
"And this is the true god of this world."
Electrolux spoke candidly about what their universe would be like after becoming gods.
"..." The Demon Emperor fell silent, deep in thought after hearing what Ilex said.
This somber atmosphere lasted for several minutes.
"So you're trying to persuade me to give up the idea of seizing the divine status of this Dream Paradise?"
"If that's the case, then I think there's no need to continue. Let's settle this with our skills. Hmph, I will definitely get my hands on that divine spark."
"No, no, no, Your Majesty is overthinking it!" Lin Hai denied the Demon Emperor's words.
"You could say that."
Lin Hai stated frankly, "We do not wish to be your enemy. On the contrary, we hope to cooperate with His Majesty."
"Cooperation?" The Demon Emperor frowned slightly. He was not used to cooperating with others, let alone these cultivators from another world.
"Yes, cooperation."
As Lin Hai spoke, a resolute glint flashed in his eyes, "This world is far more complex than we imagine."
"As I've said before, I'm not from this world. I wish to invite Your Majesty!"
"Invite me, Your Majesty? For what purpose?"
"Break through the barriers of time and space, and travel through the time tunnel!" Lin Hai said bluntly.
"The arrival of the demons and my arrival both prove that the time tunnel exists."
"My world also has gods, and it is an inclusive world where the strongest beings from many planes create their own godhood, and these gods who created their own godhood gather together."
"Moreover, the gods in my world do not need to pay the price of a physical body to become gods."
"I wonder if Your Majesty would be interested!"
The Demon Emperor remained silent for a moment, seemingly pondering Lin Hai's words.
He knew that Lin Hai, a cultivator from another world, was no ordinary person. His strength was powerful and mysterious. After all, gaining the recognition of a super artifact was not an easy thing in itself.
If he could cooperate with them, he might be able to achieve his goals more quickly.
"Alright, I can consider cooperating with you." The Demon Emperor finally spoke, his tone decisive. "However, I need to see your sincerity and strength."
"Of course," Lin Hai said with a smile. "We will prove our sincerity and strength with our actions."
Thus, what could have been a fierce battle turned into a potential opportunity for cooperation through the wisdom and strategy of both sides. Lin Hai and Electrolux found potential allies and partners.
However, the road ahead is long, and whether this cooperation can truly achieve its respective goals remains to be seen and will require countless tests and challenges. But they believe that as long as they hold firm to their beliefs and aspirations, they will be able to overcome all difficulties and reach their ultimate destination.
Lin Hai watched the Demon Emperor's departing figure and breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that although today's conversation was brief, it had laid a solid foundation for their future cooperation.
"Old Yi, do you think he'll agree?" Lin Hai turned to ask Electrolux.
"Probably."
Electrolux said with a smile, "He's a smart and decisive man who won't let any opportunity to his advantage slip by."
"That's what I think too." Lin Hai nodded.
"Moreover, his desire for divinity exceeded our imagination."
"Little one, you won't understand that kind of extreme pain until you've experienced the oppression of the power of rules."
"For this Demon Emperor, becoming a god is the only way to relieve his suffering; it is an irresistible temptation," Elex sighed.
"However, we must also be careful, after all, he is the emperor of the demon race, and we cannot completely trust him."
"I understand." Lin Hai took a deep breath.
"However, if we want to ensure safety while traveling through time and space, we can only try to win over the strongest individuals to the greatest extent possible."
"Let's do our best," Electrox said.
"As things stand, with us around, there's not much hope for his dream paradise."
"Unless... this Demon Emperor is going to make a desperate gamble and launch a full-scale war!!" (End of Chapter)
