Chapter 255: Crafty Scheme ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

“Logan, you are a real man. You are the only one among millions of human cultivators that can catch my eye. Unfortunately, your companions are all obstinate. Therefore, both of you must be wiped out.”

Each word was spoken with a cold finality from the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast. The Beast King had demanded the extermination of everyone present. It had previously allowed Lowen Shingo and Bart Cloud to leave because of past acquaintances. But they chose to stay, and now the chance of escaping was gone.

Logan clenched his fists and roared, “You wouldn’t dare! If you kill them both, I swear I’ll wipe out your entire race of demons. Perhaps I am not capable today due to my low cultivation level, but I can wait for a hundred, even a thousand years. To fight with your demon race till death!”

“Enough of your boasting. You’re already in danger yourself. Surviving the Thunder Tribulation is uncertain, especially with me making my move. You’re lucky enough to know how you’ll die. If the Beast King were here, all of you would be reduced to ashes in an instant.”

The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast seemed unperturbed, but held a trace of fear in its heart. Logan had shown exceptional talent and cunning, causing quite a stir with his breakthrough. If allowed to grow, he might indeed exact revenge on the demon race as he vowed a hundred years hence. This thought only deepened its murderous intent. Any lingering hesitation in its heart vanished.

Logan was feeling desperate. He watched as Bart Cloud stood alone to protect him, only to be thrown back by a blow from the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast, yet barely managed to return, driven by sheer determination. Despair and rage filled Logan’s heart.

Suddenly, Logan had an idea. Despite his severe injuries, he advanced a hundred meters to stand in front of the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast, not uttering a single word but stared at the Demon Beast. This left the Beast somewhat puzzled and a bit unsettled.

Divine Thunder descended from the sky, which Logan couldn’t dodge. His injuries grew worse after bearing the attack, and the terrifying thunder spread outwards, striking the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast. The electric current, enough to shatter a soul, inflicted unbearable pain on it.

The shockwaves spread for a hundred meters, destroying all in their path. Even the laws of nature were shattered, leaving an enormous pit on the ground. Remnant traces of electricity could still be felt. The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast finally understood that Logan was willingly risking his own life.

If it insisted on finishing him off, Logan could take it down with him. The dreadful Thunder Tribulation was an indiscriminate killer, treating even the Half-step Saint Seat as insignificant as an ant. Logan’s strategy was ingenious. Using the Thunder Tribulation to harm the Beast left it with no place to vent.

But the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast laughed without fear, “If I have to sacrifice myself, it will be for the loyalty to the Beast King. The Demon Beast race will remember me, and my name will live on in history. As long as I can kill you, I will bear any sacrifices. Threats are useless.”

“You’re free not to care, but my target isn’t you. It’s this small world!” Logan, pale yet resolute, spoke. His words stunned the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast, who felt a sense of dread. This meant that the stakes were significantly higher now.

“I still have thirty Divine Thunders to endure. Each Thunder can destroy a radius of a hundred meters, while this small world is merely a thousand meters. Ten of these Thunders can annihilate everything and more so thirty, which ensures this small world will be completely destroyed.”

“I can arrange an array. You can’t fool me. This small world is just a large Spirit Gathering Array that you’ve been boasting as the Demon Beast race’s Supreme Treasure. It’s merely the better laws and spiritual energy. If you insist on it, we both will be hurt!”

Logan’s eyes were determined as he spoke, “Once the small world is destroyed, the Inner Alchemy outside will naturally disintegrate. Think carefully if it’s worth it. You want to kill us just to prevent the Inner Alchemy from being destroyed. Faced with an inevitable outcome, wouldn’t it be better to step back and have a slim chance of survival?”

The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast was afraid. If the Inner Alchemy were to be destroyed, it wouldn’t be able to bear the responsibility, let alone face the past generations of Beast Kings. It found itself at an impasse. The Beast King’s original intent to commit mass murder was to protect their Supreme Treasure. Surely they couldn’t put the cart before the horse?

“Logan, let’s take a step back.” It finally conceded. It couldn’t afford to provoke Logan at this stage. If Logan were determined to die together, he might genuinely use the Divine Thunder to destroy the small world. It would be better to let Logan continue to weather the Thunder Tribulation, doubting that Logan could sustain more strikes.

If, in a few more hits, Logan were to die but the small world was left intact, that would be the optimal choice. Of course, this was not a decision the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast could make alone. It had to consult with the Beast King. Therefore, with a flicker, it disappeared right as another Divine Thunder struck down.

Logan quickly threw down two Elixirs of Law to allow Lowen Shingo and Bart Cloud to recover, as he focused on surviving the Tribulation. His body was already on the brink of collapse, and he had been barely hanging on. Now, he wasn’t sure if he could withstand another Divine Thunder. Logan also wanted to take an Elixir.

However, he decided against it. He wanted to refine himself in the Thunder Tribulation to solidify his realm and improve his strength, not rely on external forces to weather the Tribulation. Although this approach could promote him into the Throne realm, it would be detrimental to his future cultivation.

Once outside, the Beast King immediately asked as it saw the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast return, “Has it been taken care of? Are all three of them dead? Remember to bring out their bodies and don’t leave them in the small world. It will affect the operation of the spiritual energy and laws inside.”

“No, there was a slight hitch.” The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast hesitantly relayed what had transpired, leaving the Beast King equally helpless. Logan was too cunning, directly linking himself and the entire small world, making it difficult to execute a kill.

The Beast King paced back and forth, “We must get rid of him. After all, we’ve fallen out with Logan. What if Logan defects to the Heavenly Saint Daoist’s side, and I haven’t fully recovered from my injury? That would lead to endless trouble. Given how far we’ve come, there is no room for any past sentiments.”

“We must discuss it thoroughly. We can’t let anything happen to the small world, which is the Supreme Treasure of the Demon race. Logan’s idea of mutual destruction is na?ve. How can we both kill Logan and stop him from achieving his goal? Perhaps we could set up a Divine Skill to isolate and protect the small realm.”

“King, what if…” The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast could not but disagree with the Beast King, “Logan did us a favor after all. We should just let it go considering how far things have escalated. After all, Logan probably won’t survive the Thunder Tribulation. There is no need to kill and leave a bad reputation, right?”
