The Green Energy Stone is crucial to the future of the Lost City. Although that future seems increasingly bleak, as long as the Green Energy Stone remains, there is still hope.
Three elderly survivors of the Lost City, the leaders known by their nicknames Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three, vowed to protect the Green Energy Stone at all costs!
As soon as Uncle appeared, he charged toward Killing God Senior with a powerful Palm Power that made Wei Chen's scalp tingle.
Fortunately, that strike was aimed at Killing God Senior and did not come toward Wei Chen.
If a Twelfth Level Deity were to attack Wei Chen, he would have no chance to escape and would be instantly obliterated.
However, the gust of power that brushed past his scalp left Wei Chen's mind reeling and disoriented.
That Palm Power contained not only vast Divine Power but also formidable Mental Strength.
Being struck by such a Palm Power would result in utter annihilation, leaving nothing behind.
Wei Chen understood this deeply. As the force passed by him, he quickly dodged to one side of the hall.
A sharp sword of Mental Strength materialized from Killing God Senior's body, effortlessly slicing through Uncle's Palm Power. The remaining blade continued its assault toward Uncle without losing momentum.
Uncle countered several strikes, dissipating Killing God Senior's Mental Strength sword energy. A deep sense of wariness appeared in his eyes.
"Uncle, I have no intention of stealing the Green Energy Stone. Why are you so angry? Right now, I am merely a Soul Body. Is it fair for you to attack me with Divine Power? The renowned Uncle would stoop to taking advantage of someone in my position?" Killing God Senior called out from a distance, looking at Uncle and Second Uncle hovering in the air.
Uncle snorted coldly and replied, "Killing God, you’ve killed so many people from Bloodshed Shop. Although we three old fellows have defected from Bloodshed Shop, we were once part of it. No matter what, we will not associate ourselves with a butcher like you."
"We have refrained from joining forces to kill you out of consideration for your current state as a mere Soul Body. If you had your complete body now, we certainly wouldn’t hold back," Second Uncle added.
"Killing God Senior" smiled lightly and said, "You three are really amusing. If I had a complete body, do you think the three of you together could take me down? Even all the high-ranking officials from the 'Bloodshed Shop' joined forces against me and it took them months to bring my body down. Just the three of you? To put it bluntly, you're not even qualified."
"Killing God Senior" was confident. After "Uncle's" probing, he understood that over the years of being confined here, the strength of the three uncles had diminished significantly. Although "Killing God Senior" currently existed only as a "Soul Body," once battle commenced, even the combined efforts of the three leaders from the Lost City would struggle to harm him. On the contrary, "Killing God Senior" could severely injure or even kill them.
Even as just a "Soul Body," "Killing God Senior's" power was beyond what the three uncles could imagine. If those three old "Fellows" were at their peak, facing "Killing God Senior's" "Soul Body" would indeed be dangerous for him. However, the current three uncles were not strong; their prolonged silence and aging had greatly reduced their combat effectiveness.
Upon hearing "Killing God Senior's" words, "Uncle," "Second Uncle," and "Great-Uncle Three" exchanged glances filled with trepidation and concern.
If "Killing God" aimed to seize the "Green Energy Stone," it would be difficult for them to protect it even at the cost of their lives.
"Uncle" looked at "Killing God Senior" and coldly stated, "'Killing God,' we respect you as a man. We can overlook past grievances; we are no longer part of the 'Bloodshed Shop.' The assassination order against you from 'Bloodshed Shop,' whether then or now, we can disregard. But the 'Green Energy Stone' is crucial for the revival of our Lost City. Even if it costs us our lives and everything in Lost City, we will not let you take it away."
"You are truly amusing. I, 'Killing God,' am straightforward; we are not here for the 'Green Energy Stone.' You really have grown old and useless." "Killing God Senior" did not hide his disdain for the three uncles; those three old "Fellows" were indeed deserving of such contempt.
The older one gets, the less useful they become—this statement held true.
"Uncle," "Second Uncle," and "Great-Uncle Three" exchanged glances again, their minds communicating in silence as they seemed to negotiate the reliability of what "Killing God Senior" had said.
Of course, no matter how much they negotiated, deep down they felt uncertain. The reputation of "Killing God" was too formidable; his mental strength was abnormally strong. Even if "Killing God Senior" did not want the "Green Energy Stone" now, what if he changed his mind later?
"Elder brother, what do you think? Should we join forces against that 'Killing God'?"
"You fool! Our goal is to restore the glory of Lost City. How could we recklessly confront 'Killing God' at the cost of our lives? Even without a body, his strength makes it difficult for us to defeat him."
"Elder brother, if we activate all the formations within Lost City to eliminate 'Killing God,' it might not be impossible. Although our strength has declined over these years, our foundation still remains. The 'Green Energy Stone' is something we must protect with our lives. We initially snatched it from 'Blood Slaughter Shop Headquarters' precisely to go independent."
"Alright, let's take it one step at a time. We need to preserve our strength and the Lost City; that is our foundation. Killing God is well-known, so I believe he won't go back on his word. Let's see what he intends to do."
Uncle looked at Killing God Senior and clasped his fists, saying, "Killing God, your reputation precedes you; I trust you won't deceive us, the Senior Liu. In some ways, we are in the same trench, and there’s no need for fighting."
Killing God Senior smiled and replied, "Exactly. Our visit here was purely accidental. The Green Energy Stone was something you all worked hard to acquire; we aren't that greedy and have no desire for your possessions. You can rest assured about that."
Wei Chen understood White Out. In truth, Killing God Senior didn't want to fight the three old Fellow, especially since he currently had no physical body. Relying solely on his Soul Body for combat meant that any depletion of Mental Strength was significant and irreplaceable. Even if he killed the three old Fellow to obtain the Green Energy Stone, it would be a loss.
Cooperation was better.
Division would create internal threats; cooperation could lead to a win-win situation.
"Then let’s sit down and talk. Honestly, we are quite interested in the renowned Killing God. We haven't had the chance to meet before, which has been regrettable. Meeting here in the Endless Divine Realm is indeed a kind of fate." Great-Uncle Three gestured toward Killing God Senior and Wei Chen, and two chairs appeared beneath them.
Though Killing God Senior was merely a Soul Body, he sat down with an air of nonchalance, looking at the three Senior Liu with eyes full of scrutiny and curiosity rather than respect. He couldn't comprehend what was happening.
Wei Chen sat upright in his chair, knowing that he had no say here. He observed silently, listening attentively.
At the same time, Wei Chen withdrew his Mental Strength. In front of three powerful old men with strong Mental Strength, trying to probe the situation was impossible. It was like showing off one's skills in front of an expert. He understood that he wouldn't be able to detect anything in front of these three Mental Power Experts. It was best to give up early and listen quietly as they conversed.
Once everyone was seated, Uncle looked at Killing God Senior with a smile and asked, "Killing God, since you're not here to take the Green Energy Stone, then everything is negotiable. Whatever you need, just ask; aside from the Green Energy Stone, we can provide anything else."
The three old men from the Lost City clung to their only hope: the Green Energy Stone. Without it, their last glimmer of hope would vanish tragically. Therefore, they were quite open-minded; as long as Killing God wasn't after the Green Energy Stone, he could take anything else they had since they had no use for it.
However, what could be done with the Green Energy Stone, they had no idea. Trapped at the bottom of the Azure Green Pool, they couldn't leave; how could they talk about revitalizing the Lost City?
Upon reaching this point, the three old men wore expressions filled with sorrow.
"Killing God Senior" pondered for a moment before asking, "I don't seek anything for myself; we merely stumbled upon this place. In fact, one could say this is a kind of fate."
"Esteemed seniors, when I was still a character, you were already renowned as the masters of the Lost City. So it seems fitting to address you as seniors. Our accidental meeting here signifies a connection; let's open our hearts and have a chat. I would like to know how you inexplicably came to be here," "Killing God Senior" said, looking at the three elders with a calm demeanor.
"Uncle" slightly bit his lip and replied, "Killing God, to show sincerity, shouldn't you first share how you arrived here?"
"Killing God Senior" smiled and then recounted his great battle with the "Bloodshed Shop," his encounter with "Wei Chen" in the "Temple of Martial Arts" and "Memory Stone," as well as the events of the "Eastern Forest Contest." He shared everything in detail, revealing a rare moment of sincerity. In such a ghostly place, they were all lost souls; there was nothing worth hiding.
Moreover, "Killing God Senior" had his own considerations.
To return to the "Bloodshed Shop," relying solely on "Wei Chen" and his own strength was somewhat insufficient. If he could enlist the power of the Lost City, it would be much stronger. The Lost City had a formidable reputation and possessed the "Green Energy Stone," which could forge powerful beings. If given the opportunity, the Lost City could quickly produce a large number of strong fighters. To deal with the "Bloodshed Shop," top-tier experts were essential, and a solid backbone was also necessary.
The emergence of the Lost City provided "Killing God Senior" and "Wei Chen" with their best opportunity.
After hearing "Killing God Senior's" words, the three elders sighed in lamentation; compared to their own circumstances, "Killing God's" plight seemed even more pitiful. At least they still had their bodies, while "Killing God" existed only as a soul body.
"Killing God, since you have been so open, we have nothing left to hide."
"In those years, we three brothers sought independence from the control of the 'Bloodshed Shop,' so we planned to steal the 'Green Energy Stone.' However, during our attempt to take it, we were discovered by people from the 'Bloodshed Shop.' With no other options left, we had no choice but to fight."
