"If you kill me and win this bet, you won't be able to win the other bet. You can only win one of the two bets. If you don't kill me, you can win both bets. Do you want to win one or two? "Zhou Wen said slowly.
"Are you using your life to bet that I will win two rounds?" The Thearch's voice was somewhat cold.
An Jing also looked at Zhou Wen in shock. There was no need for him to do so. He could have directly taken her domain core.
However, Zhou Wen had actually used his life to bet the second domain core instead of taking hers. This made An Jing momentarily unable to accept it.
"Why did you do that? Is it because of me? "An Jing looked at Zhou Wen blankly as her expression became more and more complicated.
"I'm betting that a person like you wouldn't accept such an imperfect outcome," Zhou Wen said calmly.
"I didn't expect you to know me so well, but I can choose not to kill you. The bet is still ongoing. I don't need to give you a domain core. The outcome will still be my win," The Thearch said.
"Of course, you can make the same choice, but if I don't obtain the domain core, the first bet isn't valid. Besides, I've already said that if you don't win, you will give me another domain core, right? The bet is still ongoing, which means that you haven't won, "Zhou Wen said.
"Do you think such a verbal trap can restrain me?" The Thearch said disdainfully.
"No, I just believe that you don't want a meaningless victory. Furthermore, you care more about the other bet."
"What if I want to win like this?" The Thearch asked.
"I'll go to Divine Mountain now," Zhou Wen said without hesitation.
The Thearch fell silent. Just as Zhou Wen had said, if Zhou Wen didn't obtain the domain core and head to Divine Mountain, his chances of survival were almost zero. Such a victory was indeed meaningless to her.
What The Thearch wanted wasn't Zhou Wen's life, but to win the bet.
"You're right. I want to win, but not like this." The Thearch didn't seem interested in continuing the conversation. The flower shook and a petal fell.
The mountain wall of Chess Mountain parted like a door. A demonic beam of light flew out and charged straight at Zhou Wen, who was standing outside the mountain.
Zhou Wen reached out to grab the stream of light and saw that it was a purple, multi-faceted crystal. There seemed to be lightning and mist inside, constantly changing as though there were infinite changes.
"Get lost."
When Zhou Wen heard The Thearch's voice, he looked up at the mountain wall and realized that it had already closed. The flower was gone.
"Why?"
An Jing's voice sounded behind him. He turned around and saw her staring at him with an odd expression.
"What do you mean why?" Zhou Wen asked casually.
"Why didn't you take my domain core? Why did you bet your life?" An Jing asked as she bit her lip.
"Aren't we family?" With that said, Zhou Wen turned around and left. "I still have something to do. I'll be leaving first."
"A family?" Seeing Zhou Wen turn around and tear through space to vanish, An Jing stood there in a daze, not moving for a long time.
Although Zhou Wen didn't mind the silence, he had already accepted Ouyang Lan and An Tianzuo.
There was no need to mention Ouyang Lan. She had always been nice to Zhou Wen. As for An Tianzuo, although he basically didn't give Zhou Wen any face, Zhou Wen knew very well.
If it weren't for An Tianzuo's orders, An Sheng wouldn't have done so much for him.
Zhou Wen was someone who was amenable to coaxing but not coercion. An Tianzuo had done so much for him, so unless it was absolutely necessary, he wasn't willing to let An Jing end up in such a state.
He teleported back to Guide Ancient City and wanted to immediately absorb the domain core to advance to the Calamity grade, but he heard another piece of bad news.
"Jiang Yan is finished as well?" Zhou Wen looked at Li Xuan in a daze. He didn't snap to his senses for a long time.
"He said that there were some things he had to do. The opportunity that Zhong Ziya risked his life to exchange for allowed him to see the fatal weakness of Skyimmortals. Therefore, he had to give it a try no matter what. Also, before he left, he told me to tell you that if he were to lose, he knew that you would definitely go again. He also knew that no matter what he said, he wouldn't be able to stop you. " Li Xuan sighed and said, "He said that if you must go, study the battle between him and the Skyimmortals a few more times. Only go when you're confident."
"Is he dead?" Zhou Wen asked angrily.
Jiang Yan had clearly advised him not to go, but he had gone so quickly.
"I don't know … Take a look yourself …" Li Xuan played the recorded battle video.
The video began with Jiang Yan ascending the divine mountain. There was another white jade pillar in front of the temple's door, and Zhong Ziya was chained to it.
However, unlike Wang Mingyuan, who was clearly still alive, Zhong Ziya's limbs and head drooped. He relied on the chains that had penetrated his body to prevent himself from falling. It was unknown if he was dead or alive.
The battle between Jiang Yan and the Skyimmortals wasn't complicated. It could even be said to be simple. He was defeated faster than Zhong Ziya. He was defeated in one move and fell to the ground, his fate unknown.
Zhou Wen knew that this wasn't because Jiang Yan was weaker than Zhong Ziya. On the contrary, Jiang Yan posed a greater threat to the Skyimmortals. Therefore, the Skyimmortals became serious from the beginning.
Zhou Wen watched the battle between Jiang Yan and the Skyimmortals many times. Although it was only one move, Zhou Wen saw many things.
Jiang Yan, who was wearing the Guardian armor, had a high degree of fusion with the Guardian and reached the peak of the Calamity grade. However, he was different from Zhong Ziya. Jiang Yan didn't have the Super Evolved ability, so it was impossible for him to crack the power of Skyimmortals like Zhong Ziya.
Jiang Yan used another method, a method that belonged only to Jiang Yan.
If Zhong Ziya's ability was to fight against the world, then Jiang Yan's power was to assimilate the world.
All power could be converted for his own use. In Skyimmortals, as Jiang Yan walked towards the Skyimmortals, he also assimilated and absorbed Skyimmortals.
By the time he arrived in front of the Skyimmortals, Jiang Yan's strength and abilities had almost reached the same level as the Skyimmortals.
Instead of saying that the strike was a battle between Jiang Yan and the Skyimmortals, it was more like a battle between two Skyimmortals. They had the same strength and techniques, but Jiang Yan still didn't survive a single strike.
Zhou Wen trembled as he watched. Jiang Yan was determined to die in this battle. He didn't do it to defeat the Skyimmortals, but to let Zhou Wen see the essence of the Skyimmortals' power.
The power displayed by the Skyimmortals was only superficial. It was difficult to see the true profundities within just by watching the battle.
Jiang Yan used the power and abilities of the Skyimmortals, but he clearly displayed the profundities within. This wasn't a battle, or rather, it should be called an analysis.
Jiang Yan used his life to analyze the essence of the Skyimmortals' power.
After reading it, Zhou Wen didn't say a word. He returned to his room and summoned Demonic Neonate and the golden trident to guard outside before taking out the domain core.
