Three minutes!
"Year 20 of the Heavenly Demon Calendar?"
The giant tyrant frowned slightly when it heard Ning Yue's words. No one knew what it was thinking.
Since the giant tyrant did not speak, Ning Yue stopped moving forward and stood on the spot.
For a moment, the place fell silent.
Drip! Drip!
Time continued to pass. In the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed.
Roar!
The giant tyrant suddenly raised its head and roared. It then pointed at Ning Yue and said, "Come here and open your mind. I'm going to inspect your memories!"
Ning Yue's heart skipped a beat when he heard that. He knew things were not going well.
Given the giant tyrant's strength, he would definitely be controlled if he opened his mind!
However, the current situation did not allow Ning Yue to overthink. He could either take a gamble or escape immediately.
Without thinking too much, Ning Yue moved his feet and walked toward the giant tyrant again.
"Three more steps!"
As Ning Yue moved forward, the Dark Emperor in the Storage Ring said in a deep voice with a solemn expression.
Thud! Thud!
Every step that Ning Yue took landed heavily on the ground, producing a loud thud.
"Two steps."
The Dark Emperor silently counted every step that Ning Yue took.
"One step!"
When Ning Yue's final stomp landed, a terrifying light burst forth from the Dark Emperor's eyes. He abruptly sprang out from his storage ring and charged toward the giant tyrant at an extremely terrifying speed.
"Ning Yue, back off!"
The Dark Emperor transmitted his voice to Ning Yue as he charged toward the giant tyrant.
"Let's go!"
Ning Yue was not an indecisive person. With a flash, he retreated backward.
However, Ning Yue was cautious and did not retreat too far.
This distance was just enough for him to receive the Dark Emperor.
Although the Dark Emperor had a 90% chance of seizing the Heaven Devouring Scepter, who could guarantee that the last 10% wouldn't fail?
Therefore, Ning Yue did not retreat too far. At this distance, he could open the Tower of Ascension and bring the Dark Emperor back!
"Purple Gold Sky Devouring Hound!"
Looking at the approaching Dark Emperor, the giant tyrant's expression turned grave.
After all, the Heaven Devouring Scepter was the ultimate treasure of the Heaven Devouring Hound clan. Therefore, it was not an exaggeration for the giant tyrant to recognize the Dark Emperor as a Heaven Devouring Hound.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
It was fine if the Dark Emperor did not make a move, but the moment he did, he used his trump card.
He forced out three drops of blood essence and charged toward the giant tyrant from three different directions.
"Go!"
After the three drops of blood essence flew out, the Dark Emperor opened his mouth and spat out another fist-sized cold light.
"I can't believe it!"
The Dark Emperor's actions caused Ning Yue to curse.
The cold gleam that was the size of a fist was not an offensive technique, but the Dark Emperor's blood essence!
How much blood essence did the Dark Emperor have in total?
In order to control the Heaven Devouring Scepter, he had forced out so much blood essence!
It could be said that the Dark Emperor had put himself in a desperate situation to survive. It was either succeed or die trying!
"Child's play."
Clearly, the giant tyrant did not realize that the cold gleam was the Dark Emperor's blood essence.
Holding the Heaven Devouring Scepter, he said proudly, "I would like to see how capable you are to fight me."
"Hehe, using the Heaven Devouring Scepter to kill the Heaven Devouring Hound. Just thinking about it makes me excited."
After laughing sinisterly, the giant tyrant threw the Heaven Devouring Hound out. Its target was the fist-sized blood essence of the Dark Emperor.
Almost instantly, the Heaven Devouring Scepter came into contact with the Dark Emperor's blood essence.
When the two collided, what the giant tyrant expected did not happen. Chi!
Chi!
Chi! Chi! Chi! The Dark Emperor's blood essence wrapped around the Heaven Devouring Scepter and drilled into it desperately.
"Oh no!"
The sudden change was obviously out of the giant tyrant's expectation.
In the next moment, the giant tyrant quickly communicated with the Heaven Devouring Scepter, wanting to retrieve it.
"It's too late to react now."
The corner of the Dark Emperor's lips rose as he swung his tail towards the giant tyrant. The Dark Emperor was excited.
As long as he could hold on for a few more minutes, he would be able to gain control of the Heaven Devouring Scepter!
Thus, the Dark Emperor yelled out as he attacked the giant tyrant.
"Ning Yue, Master Xingyun, come out quickly. No matter what, you have to stop the giant tyrant for three minutes. Don't let it get close to the Heaven Devouring Scepter!"
The Dark Emperor's words caused the faces of Ning Yue and Master Xingyun to drastically change.
After exchanging a look, Ning Yue and Master Xingyun immediately charged out.
Master Xingyun fought the giant tyrant head-on, while Ning Yue waited for an opportunity from the side.
After all, the giant tyrant was a Ninth Grade Earth Sovereign. Without absolute confidence, Ning Yue did not want to take the risk.
Rumble!
The Dark Emperor wasn't a match for the giant tyrant.
It was so much so that the giant tyrant could kill him with a flip of its hand.
However, Master Xingyun was different. He was an Eighth Grade Earth Sovereign with a powerful Soul Core.
With the addition of Master Xingyun, the pressure on the Dark Emperor instantly disappeared.
"Thanks!"
After cupping his fists towards Master Xingyun, the Dark Emperor flew towards the Heaven Devouring Scepter.
The Heaven Devouring Scepter was hard to control. If he only relied on the Dark Emperor's blood essence, he would probably need three minutes to fully control it.
Judging from Master Xingyun's situation, it was unknown if he could even last three minutes.
Thus, the Dark Emperor had to find another opportunity to execute the secret technique of the Sky Devouring Dog Clan to control the Heaven Devouring Scepter!
Pffft!
Reality had proven that Master Xingyun wasn't a match for the giant tyrant.
In just a minute, Master Xingyun was already spewing blood from his mouth with his face turning pale.
"I've changed my mind. I don't want you to be my slave, I want to devour you alive!"
The giant tyrant fixed its gaze on Master Xingyun as it continued, "I can sense that as long as I devour you alive, there's a high chance that I will reach the Quasi-Heavenly Sovereign Realm.
"If you're sensible, then stay where you are. Otherwise, I'll let you die a horrible death!"
As it spoke, the giant tyrant moved towards Master Xingyun. Crack!
Crack!
In the process of advancing, the Giant Tyrannosaurus concentrated all the pressure in this area on Master Xingyun.
The massive pressure caused Master Xingyun's knees to creak and he couldn't help falling to his knees.
"One minute left."
Master Xingyun was calculating the time.
There was only one minute left from the three minutes that the Dark Emperor had mentioned!
As long as the Dark Emperor could control the Heaven Devouring Scepter, he would immediately get Ning Yue to open the Ascension Pagoda and take refuge!
Since this was the core of the Peerless Killing Array, it wouldn't matter even if the giant tyrant took the Ascension Pagoda away.
When he recovered to his peak state, he would be able to appear from the Ascension Pagoda and deal a fatal blow to the giant tyrant.
"Success!"
Suddenly, the Dark Emperor yelled from afar.
Although he said that he needed three minutes, that wasn't the case.
The Dark Emperor executed a secret technique to gain control of the Heaven Devouring Scepter in two minutes!
Pffft!
