"Only in this way can our power be truly maximized, allowing us to quickly resolve 'Sin' completely, and only by doing this can we avoid complications from long delays!"
"Complications from long delays?" The voice of Pleasure suddenly rose sharply, its tone filled with extre surprise. "You... have you mistaken his position!? Who's facing complications from delays?"
"I am the one..." Pleasure's words were abruptly cut off before finishing.
"No, you simply don't understand anything!" Xie Antong's tone was exceptionally resolute, her aning actually sounding like she was scolding a child.
After all, she knew that she needed to be sufficiently confident and reasonable to grip the other's heart, making Pleasure temporarily enter her speaking rhythm.
These were all negotiation and debate techniques she had absorbed as much knowledge as possible about before.
"Perhaps in your view, you're the one with higher status, but precisely because of this, you're always unwilling to face the current reality, refusing to let go of that arrogant heart that considers itself divine."
"But actually, if you face him like this, you'll definitely suffer great losses! Many people have thought like you before, and I'm afraid there will be even more in the future..."
Pleasure didn't notice the problem in her words at this mont - what future? If he has a future, doesn't that an I have no future!
"I understand him. You don't know what other abilities he has or what unexpected things he might do, and these surprises could all make you fall into eternal doom."
I could still face eternal doom?
Hearing Xie Antong's rapid-fire series of questions, Pleasure imdiately wanted to retort.
But thinking about what "Sin" had done before, rembering forr "colleagues" who had failed, it beca sowhat quiet, still harboring apprehension.
After all, it had also been trapped in this situation, and it truly hadn't anticipated the current circumstances before.
Moreover, it actually had no confidence left about dealing with this pink-faced guy - this forced fifty-fifty ability was truly sowhat frightening.
Among nurous divine positions, similar abilities were quite rare, and if they existed, they should be very unusual. After all, regardless of what god it was, everyone had their own power - who would imitate whom?
The reason it was so urgently wanting to assimilate Xie Antong was partly because assimilation would maximize its power, and on the other hand...
If assimilation truly succeeded, without constraints, it should be able to withdraw from this ga anyti!
At least it would be in an invincible position, preventing it from experiencing the worst scenario - actually failing here.
You should know, although they casually toyed with and suppressed players, once they truly failed, the price would be equally severe.
After all, eternal life abilities and supre authority could disappear overnight.
Seeing that Pleasure remained silent, Xie Antong continued her deception:
"No one truly understands my body and my ability state better than ."
"So, completely hand your power over to , let control it! I'll deal with him - I know his weaknesses!"
Pleasure: ...
Hearing Xie Antong's continuous reverse psychological manipulation, it was rendered sowhat speechless.
This guy, why does it feel like she's using all my lines?!
Could it be you want to assimilate instead? What kind of pillow would make you have such dreams?
What weaknesses of the opponent - how co I haven't noticed any? If I were to fight, there might be a chance, but in your condition, you look completely unable to defeat him.
It had originally been using power to tempt rationality, using characteristics to corrode spirit, stimulating the other's thirst for power to complete assimilation.
But now, the other party was indeed thirsty for power, and had indeed started demanding power, but this form... how does it feel sowhat different from what I imagined?
Is this right?
Why do I always feel like you're trying to treat as a fool with these words?
Tsk... and now the biggest problem is, this woman's heart - why does it feel like there's no opening at all!
While the two communicated, ti simultaneously passed. In the raging flas, the battle continued. The golden axe seed capable of splitting heaven and earth, carving cracks even in the formless fire.
"Jiejiejie, thanks for the praise, but who are you discussing with?!"
A roar from ahead startled Xie Antong, who had been focused on psychological gas with Pleasure.
At this mont, Overloaded Jealousy turned around, the golden extre combat axe once again smashing down toward her head.
Earlier, her dialogue form with Pleasure involved her speaking directly aloud, while Pleasure spoke within her heart.
To outsiders, it looked like she kept talking incessantly and randomly about "Sin's" various dangers, right in front of "Sin" too.
Extrely arrogant, not even bothering to hide while scheming against the other party, not worried whether the opponent hearing might lead to so early counterasures.
As if specifically saying it for the other party to hear.
And Overloaded Jealousy showed no rcy at all. While Xie Antong's mind was still constantly thinking, the murderous combat axe was already descending!
This was no joke - if Xie Antong truly showed no reaction, she might really die.
All her body hairs stood on end. Withstanding all pressure throughout her body, changing her body's movent tendency, at the critical mont, she forcefully shifted sideways backward a few inches!
Swish.
It felt like a gentle breeze brushed her face, but she could sense instant moisture on the tip of her nose.
Lifting her hand to touch it, it was covered with dripping fresh blood.
Xie Antong imdiately felt sowhat horrified.
The oozing crimson constantly reminded her - this was a battle against "Sin." Any possible mistake could co with painful costs.
Surrounded by great fire, nothing else was visible besides the flas. The scorching heat would have dried her up if not for divine power protection.
And the "Sin" before her seed like a demon erging from the great fire, flas burning right on his body, the axe in his hand still bearing so of her bloodstains.
Thud!
A heavy muffled sound made the surrounding flas shake and sway.
The giant axe in his hand heavily struck the ground. A trace of disdain appeared on Jealousy's face as he slightly shook his head.
He actually temporarily stopped, hands resting on the axe handle, speaking:
"If this is all you've got, it's sowhat boring."
Saying this, he raised his head, his gloomy and cold eyes locking onto Xie Antong opposite like an eagle's.
"Won't your face be ruined? Though, this is already the lightest outco."
"That last strike - consider yourself lucky to be alive."
"But I feel you're almost done too."
Jealousy sneered as he spoke.
Then, an hourglass even appeared in his hand. He dripped a drop of Xie Antong's blood onto it, placed it aside, letting it slowly flow away.
—That was the Hourglass of Life representing her remaining lifespan.
The flowing sand inside slowly descended, making a person's elusive life visible, watching one's life move toward its end.
Xie Antong's eyes were inevitably drawn to it - she understood this item's effects.
She was surprised to discover that it had already decreased by one-third!
She had absolutely no awareness - how had her life flowed away? She felt perfectly fine!
Could it be that... from when she beca a vessel, engaging in battles beyond her limits, her life had already been flowing away?
Moreover, every previous intentional exposure of weaknesses, enduring strikes to weaken Pleasure - actually, she had been injured too...
The feeling of life flowing away...
"See? This is your life - so fragile, like flowing sand."
"Understand your situation now? No one can help you. When you need to truly solve problems yourself, don't you lack the capability?"
"How about just handing yourself over to that so-called Pleasure? You're far too lacking."
"Or, enjoy watching your life flow away."
Saying this, "Sin" slowly squatted down, forcefully planting the hourglass in his hand upright on the ground nearby, like a demon playing with others' life and death.
The fire's glow illuminated that hourglass, as if burning her very life.
Squatting on the ground, he raised his head, looking at Xie Antong with a sinister smile.
"If things continue like this, you don't have much ti left."
This oppressive and terrifying feeling was heart-wrenching. The large live-stream audience also fell sowhat silent.
[Comnt: Seriously, he's not holding back at all. Sigh, feels like Blank is really in grave danger.]
[Comnt: Too ruthless. And fighting is one thing, but why keep mocking? Not willing to let go ntally either? After all, they once fought side by side.]
[Comnt: Even at the Ascender level, still not enough? Such a hopeless feeling of power.]
[Comnt: It shouldn't be that bad, seems like Blank still has trump cards unused.]
The intense battle on the field stirred the emotions of many flashing bullet comnts.
Moreover, in external betting pools, the victory stakes between the two had completely tilted in "Sin's" favor!
Even with the opponent's divine power boost, even with the opponent suspected of being an Ascender, even with "rumors" of abilities not fully used...
People habitually started believing "Sin" would still achieve victory.
Just like he'd done countless tis before.
......
Just as the scene was tense and ready to explode, with intense external discussions, sothing unexpected suddenly happened.
"Go to hell! You mystical-fake bastard, seeing you can't speak properly pisses off!"
Suddenly, a figure rushed to Lu Ce's side, like taking a penalty kick, forcefully kicking the hourglass away with a flying kick!
The axisymtric object spun and flew through the air, going far away until it left everyone's sight, falling into the great fire.
—The newcor was none other than Sun.
Jealousy: ?
Lu Ce was also stunned, looking up bewildered.
Instantly, veins bulged on the pink face. He didn't even want to speak, directly raising his axe for a violent chop!
Sun's hand armor instantly enlarged massively, a fla gauntlet appearing on his right hand, as large as a millstone, directly clashing with Lu Ce's axe without any evasion.
Clang!
Amid the loud noise, he started fighting with Lu Ce again, which could be considered persisting despite repeated defeats.
After all, he wasn't seeking victory - just wanting to absorb energy was enough.
Xie Antong watched the hourglass disappear from her sight, took a deep breath, calming her most turbulent heart.
She knew Jealousy wasn't joking - this was the pressure he gave her, also... the coercion between life and death!
Moreover, she knew Lu Ce wouldn't speak randomly. At tis like this, when others couldn't understand, when audiences couldn't understand, she comprehended all the nurous taphors in his words.
Ti is running out...
Your life is flowing away...
No one can help you, this ti you must solve the problem yourself...
After several deep breaths, her eyes opened again, those pupils now beginning to shimr with the determination of burning bridges!
She had to find the real solution herself!
Relying on psychological manipulation of Pleasure to successfully gain control, making herself devour and assimilate Pleasure - was really sowhat overly wishful thinking.
She had to find another thod, had to start... gambling with her life!
