When Chen Rui walked into the hall, the woman seemed to feel something. She turned to look at him and frowned. Rolla and Isabella followed her gaze. They didn't recognize Chen Rui at first, but when they saw the familiar eyes, they seemed to understand.
The woman sensed something, and a strange smile flashed across her face. Chen Rui felt a burst of heat on his wrist, and a six-star mark gradually emerged. His face changed.
This mark should have disappeared, but unexpectedly, it appeared again under the woman's power. He knew that his whereabouts had been exposed. With a thought, Rolla and Isabella disappeared at the same time. They had been taken into the Star Conferring Platform.
This move was indeed the strongest move to protect the people around him.
"Lord Ben Hong, how have you been?"
This woman was Ben Hong, who came to the human world from the Demon Realm with Chen Rui that day!
In the battle at the top of the Holy Mountain of Light, Ben Hong, who had always been very friendly to Chen Rui, revealed his true fangs and made Chen Rui into a "human bomb" to threaten Michael. Chen Rui had always relaxed his vigilance against Ben Hong, but he still fell into the trap and almost died because of it. Although Chen Rui took a risk in the end and used Shura's doppelganger to deceive the two fake gods, and finally escaped with the Breeze Shadow Boots, Ben Hong's wisdom and strength left an extremely deep impression on him.
The six-star mark on his wrist was originally where Ben Hong was parasitized, and it could provide the power of "Deprivation" three times. Chen Rui only had time to use it once against Dragon Emperor Palgoris in Ryūzoku, and then he experienced the battle at the top of the Holy Mountain of Light. At that time, after he used the spatial artifact Tower of Glory to escape, he felt that the six-star mark disappeared, and the power of "Deprivation" also disappeared, so he thought that Ben Hong was already dead. Unexpectedly, the other party was not dead, and even came to him.
As soon as Chen Rui finished speaking, he immediately teleported and appeared in the wilderness of the Jinyao Territory in a few moments.
"There's no need to rush to escape." Ben Hong's voice sounded unhurriedly behind him.
"I just want to find a quiet place where it's convenient to talk." Chen Rui stopped, "In front of Lord Ben Hong, how can a small character like me have the unrealistic idea of 'escaping'?"
Ben Hong suddenly laughed as if he heard the world's funniest joke. That voice was as sweet as a silver bell. Chen Rui secretly gathered his power and entered a state of high alert.
He was very clear about this woman's ruthlessness. Killing someone while talking and laughing was nothing.
Ben Hong did not make a move. He slowly stopped laughing, "The word 'unrealistic' is well used. It's as if I heard the sound of a slap in the face, not only to me, but also to that egomaniac Michael. Back then, I brought a 'small character' like you into the Sacred Mountain and had a fierce battle with Michael. In the end, both sides suffered heavy losses, but you, a 'small character', swaggered away safely with the Seal of Wind — this slap in the face … is really loud. "
"I'm ashamed to say it. It was just a fluke." Chen Rui's expression was neither servile nor overbearing. He and Ben Hong could be considered "old acquaintances", so some gestures were superfluous. "But Lord Ben Hong's appearance surprised me."
"Even I was surprised myself. In that situation at that time, I actually escaped from Michael. It's all thanks to the influence of the Tower of Glory on the space. Otherwise, even if I tried my best, I wouldn't be able to escape through the space crack."
Chen Rui then realized that Ben Hong's escape was actually thanks to him. He couldn't help but secretly sigh in his heart.
"Finding you … wasn't easy, but it wasn't difficult either." Ben Hong smiled slightly, "At least I'm not too stupid. Or rather, Prince Arthur's reputation is too loud, so it will inevitably attract the attention of a boring person like me. Especially when I saw your Dragons' little wife, it confirmed my guess. Although she changed her appearance, she still couldn't hide from me. I have to marvel here. Her advancement speed is really amazing, just like the identities of Royal Highness and mechanic grand master. By the way, the space power just now was also quite amazing. I didn't even see how they disappeared. "
"The amount of information in these words is a little bit too much." Chen Rui frowned slightly, showing a pondering look, "Maybe I'm overthinking, but I don't think sir came here to thank me for 'saving your life'."
"Why not? Your Royal Highness. " When he said the word "Your Royal Highness", Ben Hong's smile was a little more playful, "I should really 'thank' you."
"I finally understand what you mean. You're threatening me." Chen Rui also smiled, "Unfortunately, this identity and the people related to this identity don't have much to do with me. I became this prince just for a few important things. So, not long ago, I rejected a very advantageous political marriage. Now that the things are basically in my hands, I will leave soon. If you want to 'thank' me by 'thanking' those unrelated guys, just do as you please. I have no opinion. "
Having said that, if Ben Hong really wanted to do something to the Long Huang Empire, especially people like Fei 'er and Veronica, Chen Rui naturally couldn't sit back and watch. However, the most important thing was actually not the human world, but the Demon Realm! Ben Hong also knew a little about the Demon Realm's details. Once he returned to the Demon Realm to retaliate, that would be the most terrible. Identities like Jía and Catherine were basically inescapable. Besides, Athena was now pregnant. The consequences were simply unimaginable.
Thinking of this, Chen Rui's heart surged with a strong murderous intent against Ben Hong. In any case, I must try to kill this enemy who is a huge threat to my family and friends.
"I don't know if it's an illusion, but I actually feel your murderous intent?"
Chen Rui knew that Ben Hong's senses were extremely keen, so he immediately shook his head, "Of course it's an illusion. How can I have such a ridiculous idea when facing an absolutely invincible peak pseudo-god? I'm just thinking about how to save my life."
"I don't think this idea is ridiculous at all, especially after I luckily escaped from the Holy Mountain," Ben Hong took a deep look at him, "Besides, I don't think I can definitely kill you. On the contrary, if I am slightly careless, your 'ridiculous idea' may become a reality."
"Sir Ben Hong, you think too highly of me." Chen Rui responded verbally, but his mind was quickly thinking about how to get rid of this evil guest.
"It's not that I think highly of you, but the battle of the Holy Mountain taught me a good lesson." There was a strange look in Ben Hong's eyes. "I don't know how to describe you. Although your strength is low, and this low does not rule out the possibility that it is only temporary and full of variability, it is certain that you have unimaginable abilities. You have the Chapter of Earth and can use it at will. You have the Tower of Glory, the Origin of Destruction, and many other incredible abilities. My biggest question now is, are you the Demons? Or a human? Or some special existence … Reincarnator? Don't tell me that the last time you destroyed the Holy Kingdom of my doppelganger was just an illusion. "
Not a Reincarnator, but a transmigrator. Chen Rui added in his heart and shook his head, "It's just a special kingdom effect combined with a tool. If it really was a Holy Kingdom, then forgive me for being rude, but the one who needs to escape now is not me, but Sir."
"Is that so?" Ben Hong smiled, and the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became cold. "I admit that I have underestimated you. No matter who you are, this time, I will not make the same mistake."
The extremely oppressive force field had raised Chen Rui's power to the peak, like a taut bowstring, ready to be fired at any moment. In the battle at the peak of the Holy Mountain, Ben Hong's soul body had been repeatedly injured by Michael, and it was obvious that he had not fully recovered yet. However, the strength of a peak pseudo-god was not something that Chen Rui could resist at present. Even with a series of escape "treasures" such as the Demonic Fly Transformation, the Tower of Glory, and the Star Gate, it was not easy to successfully escape under the full vigilance of the other party.
Ben Hong's pupils suddenly shrank, and she saw a round object in Chen Rui's hand. The central part was a white polyhedron, engraved with the imprint of ancient runes, and around it were faint lights of six colors.
A strong sense of danger told Ben Hong that this was a terrifying weapon. Once it was activated, even she would be severely injured.
"Brilliant Thunder, a powerful explosive weapon personally created by the Supreme Angel Raphael. However, I feel that this kind of power is not enough to deal with pseudo-gods, so I used the six elemental origin forces to create the 'Extreme Universe Annihilation' to enhance its lethality." Chen Rui keenly captured the surprise in Ben Hong's eyes, and said with a smile, "Lord Ben Hong is indeed knowledgeable. It seems that there is no need for me to explain what the 'Extreme Universe Annihilation' is."
"The strongest killing move of the six elements. If the six great existences of the elemental plane joined forces to cast it, even the gods would have to be wary of it, but you actually made it into a tool to enhance it. What a waste of a sledgehammer." Ben Hong snorted coldly, "You were able to gather the six elemental origin forces and successfully create the 'Extreme Universe Annihilation'. It seems that you have a close relationship with the six great kings. If this was the elemental plane, then I would be the one running away. Unfortunately, the elemental plane has long been sealed, and the elemental kings that appeared on the main plane are only weak projections, not even a billionth of their power … "
A sealed elemental plane? Chen Rui's heart stirred, but he did not linger on this question. He just shrugged, "As I said earlier, I came to the human world for a few things, and the Order of the Wind is only one of them. Now, the one I want to show you has a special meaning to you, Lord. Please appraise it. "
As he spoke, a silver-white cup appeared in his other hand. The metal surface of the cup was engraved with the image of a wing, faintly emitting a gentle light.
"This is …" As a soul, Ben Hong could clearly feel the wonderful aura emitted by this cup. Just by sensing it from this distance, he felt that his soul power was much more peaceful.
"One of the three holy objects of light, the Holy Grail." Ben Hong's strange expression fell into Chen Rui's eyes, and the smile on his face became even wider, "It also has a name that you are very familiar with, the Silver Box, one of the silver boxes that contains the Origin of Creation."
"It really is the container of creation!" Ben Hong's eyes lit up again, "Its power seems to be …"
"That's right, the power of this' Holy Spirit 'can nourish and repair damaged souls." After saying this, the Holy Grail disappeared from Chen Rui's hand again, "Not only that, it also has a special function, it can further strengthen the understanding of the Origin of Creation."
"Right now, you are like threatening me with a knife in one hand, and tempting me with a bag of money in the other." Ben Hong laughed tenderly, the murderous intent in the air did not weaken, but instead became stronger, "Do you think this kind of trick can scare me?"
"Sir Ben Hong, we can be considered 'old friends', we are not completely ignorant of each other." Chen Rui's expression did not change, "Sir, do you still remember what I said last time? There is a person I have been looking for, and it is very likely that she is in the Holy Mountain. Unfortunately, I did not have much time to investigate last time. Now, I have confirmed her position in the Holy Mountain, and I have not given up on a certain idea. "
Ben Hong's eyes narrowed, and Chen Rui did not avoid looking straight into her eyes. The Origin of Creation of the Holy Mountain of Light had always been Ben Hong's biggest goal, and he could not easily give it up.
Ben Hong nodded slightly, "You are indeed a smart person, you have already guessed my intention. Since we both have the same goal, we might as well cooperate again, on the basis of equality. However, you have seen the protective power of the Holy Mountain the last time, do you have the confidence to enter again? "
"Of course. Have you forgotten that the Holy Grail just now is one of the Three Holy Artifacts of Light?" Chen Rui gently waved the Brilliant Thunder in his hand, "And this thing was personally given to me by Raphael."
"It seems that the prince's identity carries more weight than I thought?" Ben Hong's smile was a little more charming, and the ice-cold killing intent finally began to fade bit by bit.
"Not only the prince, but also others … Sir, you will know soon." Chen Rui waved the six-star mark on his wrist, "Sir, your means are also stronger than I thought. I thought I had already gotten rid of it, but I did not expect it to still be there."
"It is just some small means of life force. After all, my soul has once resided there. Don't worry, it will not affect you in any way, otherwise I believe you would have sensed it long ago. Now, you can continue to use the remaining two 'Deprivation' powers. "
Chen Rui nodded, his gaze falling on Ben Hong's face, and said indifferently, "The Brilliant Thunder of Light, the Holy Grail, the prince's special relationship with the Holy Mountain, these are enough to prove my sincerity. Since Sir has said that we are cooperating on equal terms, then I would like to know what sincerity Sir can offer? "
"I can help you completely control the Tower of Glory. Even if you do not have the corresponding strength, you will be able to use it freely. As long as you can truly control the Tower of Glory, you will be able to increase your combat power to a whole new level. Not only that, it also has a special spatial function, and it will not be difficult to take someone away — even in the Holy Mountain of Light. As for the things that happened between us before … let's write them off. Before going to the Holy Mountain, I need to borrow the help of your Holy Grail to recover the damage to my soul and strength. "
Chen Rui raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and smiled, "Deal."
