Chapter 259: Chapter 259 Dark Abyss

"What do I want to do?"

Lin Yi’s face broke into a bad grin, "Of course, I want to do what all men in the world want to do."

Upon hearing this, the panic on Xue Qiangwei’s face intensified.

Could it be that this audacious and reckless scoundrel actually planned to have his way with her right here?

With Chen Feng’s arrogant demeanor and his lust for beauty, such an act was not impossible!

She had thought that after refining a Blood God Gu and temporarily boosting her cultivation to the Sealed Marquis Realm, she would be able to suppress Lin Yi easily.

Yet, she hadn’t expected to still be no match for Lin Yi!

"Chen Feng."

But at this moment,

Two figures suddenly descended upon the place.

It was none other than the Heavenly Nether King and Black Dragon.

Lin Yi immediately greeted them with a bow, "I pay my respects to Master and Black Dragon Senior Brother."

"Chen Feng, unexpectedly, in just a few days, you have surpassed your Ninth Senior Sister."

Having clearly witnessed the scene just now, the Heavenly Nether King looked at Lin Yi with a gaze full of approval, "It seems the Netherworld Blood Poison I bestowed upon you has been of great use."

Lin Yi nodded respectfully, "The Netherworld Blood Poison has indeed been a great help to your disciple, but the poison has now spread throughout my entire body. Without the antidote, I fear I would have no place to lay my corpse."

As he spoke, Lin Yi’s face still carried a trace of worry.

However, a smile surfaced on the Heavenly Nether King’s face.

The deeper Lin Yi practiced with the power of the Netherworld Blood Poison, the deeper his poisoning would be.

That also meant that Lin Yi’s dependence on him would deepen.

Even to the point where he could never escape his control for the rest of his life and would have to obey his orders.

The Heavenly Nether King smiled and said, "Chen Feng, rest assured, I have high hopes for you. As long as you successfully seize the title of Holy General, I will certainly not mistreat you."

After saying that, his gaze fell on Xue Qiangwei, "Don’t you like your Ninth Senior Sister?"

"I can promise you that, as long as you become the Holy General, I will grant your Ninth Senior Sister to you as a reward."

"Master, how can this be?"

Xue Qiangwei’s seductive face suddenly showed a look of disbelief.

Could the Heavenly Nether King actually be thinking of giving her to Chen Feng, this lecher?

"How so?"

The Heavenly Nether King looked displeasedly at Xue Qiangwei and coldly said, "If Chen Feng becomes the Holy General of the Divine Sect, he will be the pillar of our organization."

"With his status, is he not worthy of you? What is there to be dissatisfied with?"

Xue Qiangwei wanted to retort, but then she thought about it. Although Chen Feng’s strength was not bad, within the Blood God Sect, there were numerous Heavenly Prides.

How easy would it be for Chen Feng to become one of the Holy Generals?

Should Chen Feng actually succeed and become one of the Holy Generals of the Blood God Sect, with a limitless future ahead—then it wasn’t entirely impossible for her to comply for the greater good.

Most importantly, although she was the Ninth Disciple of the Heavenly Nether King, she was self-aware that her position in his heart was not high; after all, she was merely a chess piece under the Heavenly Nether King.

Now, her value was far surpassed by that of Chen Feng, the tenth disciple.

If Chen Feng truly became a Holy General, then compared to him, she would be even more insignificant.

Upon hearing that the Heavenly Nether King actually intended to award him the demoness Xue Qiangwei, Lin Yi couldn’t help but feel a jolt in his heart.

It seemed he had acted too convincingly; the old man actually believed he had taken a fancy to Xue Qiangwei?

To actually use her as a condition for a reward.

But on the surface, Lin Yi still displayed an appearance of immense joy, "Thank you, Master!"

"This disciple will definitely give his all, not to let down Master’s expectations!"

"Very good."

Seeing Lin Yi’s spirited attitude, the Heavenly Nether King nodded in satisfaction and then turned to look at Black Dragon beside him, "In two days, it will be the day of the Holy General assessment held by the Divine Sect."

"Tell your tenth junior brother about the matters needing attention in tomorrow’s assessment."

After saying this, the Heavenly Nether King directly turned and left, disappearing from the sight of the three.

Black Dragon watched the Heavenly Nether King disappear with a face full of respect before turning his gaze to Lin Yi, his expression immediately becoming somber.

"Tenth junior brother, you’d better be fully alert for tomorrow’s Holy General assessment. Otherwise, should you fail, you should know what fate awaits you."

Unexpectedly, Lin Yi responded with indifference, "There are as many as four Holy General positions. With my current strength, is it possible that I can’t seize a Holy General slot? Elder brother Black Dragon, you must be underestimating me?"

Black Dragon scoffed disdainfully, "You have achieved what you have now largely because the Master has planted the Netherworld Blood Poison in you, using this desperate measure to accelerate the enhancement of your cultivation."

"But even so, your chances of winning are still not great."

"In tomorrow’s competition, you will encounter the successors sent out by the other four Guardian Dharma Kings."

"They will be your formidable rivals."

"This doesn’t even count the outstanding disciples from other elders and hall masters of the Blood God Sect."

Only then did Lin Yi drop the disdain from his face, and spoke gravely, "I wonder who these people are?"

Black Dragon said, "The Earth Nether King’s disciple, Jue Xin."

"The Blood Netherworld King’s disciple, Xue Wushang."

"The Heavenly Illusion King’s disciple, Shenqing."

"The Sky Evil King’s disciple, Evil Feng."

"All four of these individuals have on-paper strength greater than yours, and moreover, it is very likely they have hidden tactics. The hope of seizing a Holy General slot from their hands is extremely slim."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi’s brows immediately furrowed, "If the hope is so slim, why would Master go to such lengths to insist on me securing a Holy General slot?"

"That’s because the Holy General slots are extremely important to the Master,"

continued Black Dragon. "The Holy Generals are candidates for the Saint Heir, and after becoming a Holy General, they can accompany the Saint Heir and Holy Daughter into the Dark Abyss."

"The Dark Abyss, what place is that?"

Lin Yi had finally heard the key point, his eyes moved slightly as he asked.

"The Dark Abyss is the forbidden land of our Blood God Sect, and it is also the number one forbidden land in the Eastern Domain."

"One of its entrances is right inside our Blood God Sect."

A gleam flickered in Black Dragon’s eyes, "But without the Blood Empress’s permission, even a Guardian Dharma King cannot casually enter the Dark Abyss."

"However, the Saint Heir and the Holy Daughter each have the opportunity to enter the Dark Abyss once a year, and the four Holy Generals, as guards for the Saint Heir and Holy Daughter, can enter the Dark Abyss together."

"The Master needs you to go into the Dark Abyss to find something for him."

Lin Yi looked shocked, "Why doesn’t Master enter the Dark Abyss himself?"

"If the Master could enter the Dark Abyss, what would he need you for?"

Black Dragon sneered, "The entrance to the Dark Abyss is sealed with a Barrier set up by the Blood Empress. Below the Venerable Realm, it is impossible to break through the Barrier. If the Blood Empress is alerted, even the Master would be in big trouble."

Lin Yi nodded, his face revealing a look of enlightenment, "What does Master want me to find in the Dark Abyss?"

"That, I will naturally tell you after you pass the assessment and become a Holy General,"

Black Dragon replied coldly, "If you can’t even become a Holy General, what’s the point of telling you now?"

If Lin Yi couldn’t become a Holy General, his life wouldn’t last many more days. What’s the point in speaking too much to a dead man?
