Life and Death
What were the geniuses of the various prefectures fighting for in order to become a core disciple of the Universal Palace?
They were fighting for an unparalleled glory, a huge opportunity, more cultivation resources, and an easier path to becoming stronger.
There were millions of paths, and some paths that were opened by external forces were indeed a relatively shortcut.
On the path of cultivation, every step was incomparably difficult, and every step had to be fought for.
Fighting against the heavens, fighting against the earth, fighting against people, that was how it was.
It was a struggle, and even more so a struggle.
If one were to really compare, then the lifetime inheritance of a five star All Knowing Expert was indeed much more beneficial than becoming a core disciple of the Universal Palace. This was something that was without a doubt.
However, it was naturally impossible for Qin Xiao to choose the five star All Knowing Expert in front of him as his master.
Joining the Universal Palace was still considered good, as it wasn't considered taking anyone as his master.
Although Qin Xiao's strength was average in the World of All Things, he stood at such a height in the World of Gods. Not to mention a five star All Knowing Expert, even a Controller of All Things didn't have the qualifications to become Qin Xiao's master.
Qin Xiao naturally wouldn't consider taking anyone as his master.
Furthermore, the five star All Knowing Experts in the World of All Things were all banished here, and they were all people who had committed heinous crimes.
Qin Xiao had always scoffed at such people, and it was even more impossible for him to submit to despotic authority.
Princess Ziyue wouldn't even consider it. Her ancestor's strength was also infinitely close to a five star All Knowing Expert. She didn't need another master, even if it was a five star All Knowing Expert.
She didn't even care about becoming a core disciple of the Universal Palace, so she definitely wouldn't care about this.
Furthermore, she was also wary of the people exiled from the Demon Island.
Therefore, Qin Xiao and Princess Ziyue only glanced at each other, and quickly reached a tacit understanding.
"Junior appreciates senior's good intentions, but junior has a master, and won't be joining another sect." Qin Xiao directly rejected.
Speaking of which, Qin Xiao did indeed have a master. This was not a lie.
Hearing Qin Xiao's refusal, the old man's face suddenly became gloomy. A terrifying and gloomy aura surged out, expressing his anger.
The terrifying aura also made Qin Xiao's heart skip a beat. He knew that something bad was about to happen.
Facing this terrifying pressure, Princess Ziyue slightly frowned. Although she smelled the scent of threat, she still resolutely said, "Senior, I appreciate your kind intentions. I hope you can forgive me!"
The two of them rejected him one after another, causing the old man in front of them to be completely enraged. A gloomy and terrifying aura instantly enveloped this part of the world like a dark cloud that blotted out the sun.
The originally dream-like scenery of the Otherworldly Peach Garden was instantly shrouded in a gloomy aura. Heaven and earth turned dark, as if the Nine Underworlds had descended, becoming frightening and sinister.
A cold aura instantly enveloped Qin Xiao and Princess Ziyue, causing the two of them to tense up once again.
Facing a Five Star All Things Wielder, the two of them indeed felt very pale and powerless. If they were to meet force with force, there was no way they could defeat him. No matter how they looked at it, only death would await them.
How could they withstand the wrath of a Five-star All Knowing Expert?
The old man's previously hypocritical face was completely torn off, becoming gloomy and frightening. His face was filled with gloomy aura, and his eyes also became abnormally sharp.
Just one look was enough to make one's heart turn cold.
A terrifying killing intent enveloped this part of the world, as if death had already descended.
At this moment, the old man was like the ruler of this part of the world, a peerless demon.
Indeed, those who were banished to Demon Island were not good people.
"Hmph, you two insensible little fellows. If the Old Man wasn't so bored, why would he take a fancy to you two little fellows? "
"How many people dream of obtaining the Old Man's lifelong inheritance? Not to mention you two little fellows who are only Two Star All Things Wielder, even a Four Star All Things Wielder would scramble like a flock of ducks and desire it to the extreme. "
"The Old Man intended to impart it to you, but you didn't appreciate it."
"Since you didn't appreciate it, then you'd better die!"
The old man's killing intent completely gushed out.
Qin Xiao said anxiously, "Senior, please calm down. It's not that we don't appreciate your kindness, but we have already joined the Universal Shrine, and indeed have a master. It's not convenient for us to join another sect."
"Moreover, this is Demon Island. The two of us have to leave this place immediately, or else we'll be trapped on Demon Island forever."
"Hmph, so what if we're trapped on Demon Island forever? What's wrong with this place? As long as you become stronger, you can still be free and unfettered. You can still dominate this Demon Island and occupy it as kings. What's wrong with that? "The old man said angrily.
Qin Xiao shook his head and said, "I believe that if you were given a choice, you'd prefer to live outside instead of being trapped on Demon Island forever."
"Strength is very important, but freedom is equally important. Even if we can become a Five Star All Things Wielder under your guidance, what's the point of being trapped on Demon Island forever? "
"Rather than that, I might as well go out and fight for it. Even if I can't become a Five Star All Things Wielder, at least I'll be free. "
"Forgive us for not being willing to live on Demon Island forever. Therefore, it's not that we want to reject you, but we have no other choice. "
Although Qin Xiao's words were reasonable, it was difficult to calm the old man's endless anger.
"Hmph, what a sharp-tongued brat. It's just an excuse. If you're unwilling, then you're unwilling. There's no need for so much nonsense. "
"In this world, no one dares to reject the Old Man. You're the first, but also the last. If you're unwilling, then the Old Man will make you be willing. "
"You want to leave Demon Island? The Old Man won't let you leave. "
Hearing the old man's words, Qin Xiao and Princess Ziyue's expressions couldn't help but change.
This is troublesome!
It seems that there's really no way to deal with the aftermath of today's matter.
How could his little thoughts escape the eyes of this five-star All-Knowing Being before him?
What should they do?
Their strength was inferior, so they could only lower their heads.
Qin Xiao secretly gritted his teeth and said, "Senior, you're a Five Star All Things Wielder, standing at the peak of the world. We're just two immature brats. It's indeed our fault for provoking Senior's wrath. I hope that Senior can be magnanimous and not bicker with us two immature brats. "
"In your eyes, we're just two ants. Why should you lower yourself to the same level as two ants?"
"Hmph, hmph, hmph!" The old man in front of him laughed in a sinister manner. His eyes contained a strange glint as he looked at Qin Xiao and said, "Since you know that you are ants, yet you still dare to reject this old man. This means that you do not have the heart of an ant."
"You're clearly ants, but you still want to think of yourself as a dragon."
"Brat, don't think that the Old Man doesn't know what you're thinking. The Old Man knows that you're from the Universal Palace. A Two Star All Things Wielder should only be an honorary disciple, right? "
"It seems that the Universal Palace has sent a batch of honorary disciples here to train. Perhaps they've selected a few special geniuses from among you to focus on training."
"You both have stone talismans on you, right? Brat, do you think that as long as you crush the stone talismans, you can smoothly escape from the Old Man's hands? Hmph, you two brats are really naive. "
Naive?
The old man's words caused Qin Xiao and Princess Ziyue to be stunned. They looked at each other and were slightly puzzled.
What did he mean?
Could there be something else?
In short, the two of them suddenly had a bad premonition in their hearts. They kept feeling that there might be something unexpected going on.
As expected, the Old Man continued, "If you still have such delusions in your hearts, the Old Man can clearly tell you that as long as the Old Man doesn't let you go, no one from the Universal Palace has the ability to take you away from here."
"The Old Man has never paid any attention to the few Venerables from the Universal Palace. If they didn't join forces, how could they suppress the Old Man and banish the Old Man to Demon Island? "
"They're just a few hypocrites. Hmph, they don't have the ability to take you away. Unless, those few old fellows join forces. But even if they join forces, it's enough for the Old Man to kill you before they can save you. "
"Your life and death are now completely in the Old Man's hands. Don't think that you'll get lucky."
Qin Xiao couldn't help but frown. He looked at Princess Ziyue in confusion.
He didn't know much about the Universal Palace, so he could only ask Princess Ziyue.
Princess Ziyue transmitted her voice to Qin Xiao, "Qin Xiao, what he said might be true. The Venerables from the Universal Palace are also five-star All Beings. Even if the Venerables join forces, they might not be able to save us. "
"Looks like we're really in big trouble this time. We might not be able to get out of here alive."
"Then what do you think now?" Qin Xiao transmitted his voice.
Princess Ziyue said, "What else can I think? If you want me to be his disciple, I swear that I won't do it. "
Qin Xiao couldn't help but shake his head. How could he choose?
He definitely wouldn't agree. He would definitely swear that he wouldn't do it.
However, in the face of such a predicament, Qin Xiao was really displeased. She was more or less unwilling to accept this.
"Two little fellows, I'll give you one more chance. Are you willing to be Old Man's disciple? If you don't know what's good for you, hmph, then don't blame the Old Man for being impolite. The Old Man doesn't have the patience to slowly teach you. "The old man said again. This was the last ultimatum. It was full of threats.
The aura of death surged. Killing intent surged.
Qin Xiao and Princess Ziyue didn't doubt that if they dared to say no, they would definitely die.
If they died, Qin Xiao's journey in the Universal Core World would come to an end.
Currently, his Dao of All Things was only at the Intermediate Level. He was still three levels away from becoming a Controller of All Things.
If he ended his cultivation in the Universal Core World now, it would definitely be a heavy blow to his future cultivation of the Universal Dao.
Was there really no other way?
Was there really no other way?
He was unwilling. He was indeed unwilling!
But no matter how unwilling he was, what else could he do?
It was absolutely impossible for Qin Xiao to lower his head and compromise.
He couldn't lose his bottom line.
Therefore, without any hesitation, Qin Xiao crushed the stone talisman.
Princess Ziyue and Qin Xiao had a high level of tacit understanding. Without any hesitation, they crushed the stone talisman.
Even if the chances were slim, they had to give it their all.
At the same time as they crushed the stone talisman, Qin Xiao and Princess Ziyue also launched a fierce attack at the old man. They gave it their all.
"Hmph, don't overestimate yourself. Die!" The old man snorted disdainfully. With a wave of his hand, a destructive force instantly crushed Qin Xiao and Princess Ziyue. They couldn't resist at all.
The destructive force instantly enveloped the two of them.
Their divine bodies and souls were quickly devoured and collapsed.
