Immortal Devil Transformation

The army that was ravaged by the giant lizards already lost all of their bravery. They fled in the wastelands in disorder.

The vicious giant lizard army didn’t chase after them either. When Lin Xi spoke, the battlefield already truly began to quiet down.

Zhang Ping looked Lin Xi. His emotionless eyes were filled with hatred. “Why wouldn’t I be able to defeat you?” He looked at Lin Xi and said.

“In our Green Luan Academy’s training valley, I defeated many people, but I was also defeated many times. When we left the training valley, we could try to win against even more formidable figures in the academy, we could even try to defeat Senior Gu Xinyin. This type of victory and defeat is something we are happy to experience.” Lin Xi calmly looked at Zhang Ping and said, “But what about the winning you are talking about? Not even you yourself will feel much joy.”

“A victory founded on the affection between friends?” Zhang Ping’s killing intent gradually increased as he said with a bit of mockery, “You are a Divine General. The entire academy stands by your side. How could I defeat you?”

“Every one of us was fighting for the academy.” Lin Xi looked at Zhang Ping and said, “The number of near death situations I’ve experienced wouldn’t be less than yours.”

Zhang Ping said coldly, “Do not tell me the awful joke that all Green Luan Academy students should feel happy over the strength of another. In the end, you became the academy’s leader, while I was left to rot in Purgatory Mountain.”

“That is why you feel that this world is unfair, that this world is ugly,” said Lin Xi calmly, “That is why you brought all those believers here to make me feel that everything I did was for such an ugly world.”

Zhang Ping gave Lin Xi an expressionless look. “This world is ugly to begin with. Those so-called upright and kind people were merely enticed with enough benefits to act in such a way.”

“In reality, the problem regarding the kindness of human nature has already been debated for countless years.” Lin Xi calmly looked at Zhang Ping, “This is a question everyone naturally has an answer to in their own hearts. I have heard someone say before that life is a mirror. Only after entering Frozen God Domain and experiencing so many things did I understand the meaning behind these words.”

“Life is just a mirror.” Lin Xi raised his head. He looked at the sky blue sky behind Zhang Ping and said with a heavy voice, “When you smile towards it, it will smile towards you. If you cry in front of it, it will cry in front of you. How you treat it, it will treat you in turn.”

“This world is the same. You’ve felt like it has always been unfair to you, so there will never be fairness in your eyes. You feel like it is ugly, so it is ugly to you.”

Lin Xi’s voice clearly spread through the wasteland. Many people became silent, starting to ponder over the meaning of these words.

Zhang Ping still looked coldly at Lin Xi, not immediately saying anything in reply.

“Vice Principal Xia has always said that the most important purpose of one’s life is that one can feel peace when they depart. Then could life in this world not be for the sake of peace, for the sake of happiness?” Lin Xi’s eyes landed on Zhang Ping again. “So what if you control everything? Don’t you still have to eat those black bugs you find vile every day? Don’t you still have to fear my cultivation rising above yours? Don’t you still have to frantically suppress those who oppose you? But there is completely no need for you to do these things. When you came back from Purgatory Mountain, when our battle against Purgatory Mountain already ended, you could have calmly lived in either Yunqin or Great Mang. You could have wandered through any street, allowing yourself to experience all the excitement of the secular world. You could have experienced the various aspects of life. You could visit many places of beautiful scenery, you could drink in a place you want to drink in. You could spend your days just thinking what you could do for Qin Xiyue, think about how to make her like you. All of these experiences could have been warm and beautiful. But now? Even if you defeat me, even if you kill me, even if you used force to seize anyone, would that really make you happy?”

Zhang Ping looked at Lin Xi coldly. He didn’t say anything for a long time.

However, after remaining silent for a long time, his tone instead became filled with even greater disgust. He coldly said, “Do you think you have the right to lecture me?”

“You are wrong. I actually didn’t want to say anything to you, it was you who wanted to make everyone feel that we were wrong, instead make all of them feel that everything you did possessed sufficient reason. That is why you would stand here to talk with me without any hurry to make a move,” Lin Xi shook his head and said.

Zhang Ping remained silent for a moment. He said with ridicule, “That is why it is just like Li Ku said, everything else is fake. In the end, it will depend on who is stronger.”

“It isn’t just my own strength.”

Lin Xi thought about this ‘it isn’t just my own strength’, finding it rather amusing, a bit warm. He also felt pride for those people. That was why he smiled, his smile prideful and warm as he said to Zhang Ping, “The Devil Eye Flower should have stimulated your mind, made you feel better, more powerful, but Meng Bai discovered this secret of yours, so your Devil Eye Flower Field was destroyed by Meng Bai. For the sake of obtaining enough power to fight against your red robed Divine Adjudicators, Wen Xuanyu entered Sky Devil Prison Plains, thus ruining your secret of the Divine Elephant Army. Mu Shanzi has always said that he was my enemy, but he has always fought for the academy. He discovered the location of your black bugs, thus cutting off that resource. Your demagogy methods were ruined by Auspicious Virtue, and this originates from the simple gratitude and grudges of Yunqin’s people… All of these things are the reason why you couldn’t force me to make a move no matter how you tried, the reason why you couldn’t force me to appear in front of you.”

When Zhang Ping saw Lin Xi’s warm and radiant smile, he didn’t respond to any of Lin Xi’s other words. He only slowly said, “From the very start, it was precisely this smile that made me feel loathing.”

“Then I have even more of a reason to smile,” Lin Xi looked at Zhang Ping and said, “Because you are now my enemy.”

“You could do some things to make me unhappy, some things to make me more angry,” Zhang Ping looked at Lin Xi, laughing in ridicule as he said, “But unfortunately, in the end, your beloved wife has died under my hands, many of your best friends have also died under my hands. I still killed them, and the number of people at your side has still grown fewer and fewer.”

Zhang Ping said these things to deliberately anger Lin Xi. However, there was no way Lin Xi would get angry.

Lin Xi’s hands trembled slightly.

Right at this time, several voices suddenly sounded from the ground collapsed by the giant lizards not far away.

“I am truly sorry to let you down, but it seems like our lives are still quite persistent.”

This voice carried an extremely unhappy tone, sounding as if everyone owed him money. This voice had appeared during the battle with Purgatory Mountain Patriarch in front of Thousand Leaf Pass as well. Moreover, it was a voice that regardless of whether it was Lin Xi or Zhang Ping who heard it, they were both extremely familiar with it.

Lin Xi’s breathing instantly stopped.

Zhang Ping’s face also instantly went rigid.

An unhappy Xu Shengmo walked out. Then, he turned his head to not look at Lin Xi, but walked behind Lin Xi.

It really was Xu Shengmo.

Lin Xi’s body trembled slightly. A strange brilliance flashed past even Nangong Weiyang’s eyes.

Xu Shengmo should have already died under the collapse of Thunder Academy. However, he was still alive. Since he was still alive, then the others…

“Zhang Ping, I’m sorry to disappoint you.”

A clear and gentle voice sounded.

Lin Xi was stunned.

A tall and slender beauty walked out from the collapsed ground.

When he saw this woman, it was just like the very first time back at Summer Spirit Lakeside, just like when he first saw her.

“Zhang Ping, I’m sorry to disappoint you.”

Even more voices sounded. Bian Linghan and Jiang Xiaoyi also walked out.

Lin Xi’s eyes became wet. He opened his mouth, yet he couldn’t say a single thing. He could only laugh out loud.

Zhang Ping’s breathing suddenly became heavy.

His body was also shaking slightly, his face starting to distort.

“You all didn’t die in Thunder Academy? Then why did you still hide from us when we came back?” Nangong Weiyang looked at Gao Yanan who walked up to her and seriously asked.

“We wanted to give him a surprise.” Gao Yanan held Lin Xi’s hand. She looked at Lin Xi’s eyes and also laughed. “Because he is now our enemy, so we have to deal him the greatest blow.”

“You must be furious right now I reckon. What a pity though, you can’t get angry even if you want to! If I were you, maybe just ending my own life will be better.”

Xu Shengmo’s words had always been sharp and unkind. But after the battle of Central Continent City, Zhang Ping personally killed many Green Luan Academy people. Even if some of them couldn’t be considered Xu Shengmo’s old friends, they could at least be considered Xu Shengmo’s fellow students. That was why Xu Shengmo’s words and expression were even harsher than previously.

Zhang Ping raised his head.

His eyes became a red-purple color.

His blood began to completely burn.

He wanted to see Qin Xiyue, yet Qin Xiyue still didn’t appear before him. He wanted to kill everyone by Lin Xi’s side, making it impossible for him to smile, yet those who he thought he killed were still alive. Lin Xi’s smile instead became even more dazzling and brilliant!

He finally got angry, more angry than ever before.

“Then you can just die first!”

He looked at Xu Shengmo and shouted this.

The instant he spoke these words, an ordinary black iron spear that fell from who knew which soldier entered his hands, and then he flung it out.

There were at least several thousand steps of distance between him and Xu Shengmo.

But under this toss, the black iron spear began to burn down to its very core, turning into an unimaginable stream of flames that carried unimaginable speed and power as it shot towards Xu Shengmo. This type of power and speed actually exceeded the limit of Xu Shengmo’s perception and reaction speed. Xu Shengmo couldn’t block it at all.

Sonic booms and burning air erupted in the sky.

This burning flame was about to land on Xu Shengmo’s body.

But right at this time, Lin Xi’s sleeves fluttered slightly. A streak of golden lightning struck this flame.

The flame suddenly scattered, turning into fine white smoke that filled the entire sky.

“Only if you can kill me first.” Lin Xi said seriously while looking at Zhang Ping.
