Chapter 1886: Caught in a Dilemma (1)
The atmosphere on the 98th level of the Heaven Ascension Devil Tower was extremely strange.
The thirty-three Demon Emperor powerhouses stared at Li Lingtian, unsure if they should eliminate him or just let him go.
Furthermore, Li Lingtian had mentioned that if he were to really make a move, he could easily kill the five Demon Emperors before he fell. This was the power of a Soul Array Master.
Moreover, Li Lingtian had mentioned the above in his words. Naturally, they had to proceed with caution.
Not to mention the higher-ups, if Eastern Demon really sent this young man here and something happened to this young man, Eastern Demon would definitely not let them off. With Eastern Demon’s strength, he might not be able to deal with them, but if he secretly used his Soul Array Master’s methods, they would definitely suffer a huge loss.
In the end, the thirty-three Demon Emperors tacitly agreed to Li Lingtian’s arrival.
His entire attention was focused on the array altar but he still paid attention to Li Lingtian in case he was ambushed.
Li Lingtian gradually sensed that the Demon Emperor powerhouse was tacitly acknowledging him and was merely wary of his movements. Li Lingtian was glad to have encountered Eastern Demon before. Otherwise, he would not have known how to deal with these Demon Emperors today.
However, he did not dare to be careless. He did not dare to mention the battle between Eastern Demon and Li Lingtian at the beginning lest these powerhouses suspect that he was Li Lingtian.
"This array altar didn’t appear when Supreme One came here before."
"I believe this array altar is your masterpiece."
Li Lingtian’s expression turned serious after he surveyed the array altar.
He had a rough understanding of this array altar. This array altar had a radius of 100 meters and formed a nine-pointed star. It looked extremely mysterious. Even with his current array cultivation, it would not be possible to crack it in a day or two.
The last time he came here, this place didn’t have an array altar. Instead, it was a place for the Heaven Demon Zither and the God Demon Crystal.
Therefore, he was certain that this array altar was created by these 33 powerful Demon Emperors. Although these Demon Emperors were not Soul Array Masters, they were also experts who understood Array Dao.
"A Soul Array Master is a Soul Array Master."
"I didn’t expect that old fellow East Demon to have been here before."
" That’s right. We were the ones who created this array altar. "
The Blood Demon was stunned as it looked at Li Lingtian.
He did not expect a Soul Array Master to be so powerful, to have been here before.
However, he did not know if Li Lingtian could activate the array formation and teleport everyone to the ninety-ninth floor. It should be noted that they had been here for almost ten years but they had yet to be teleported to the ninety-ninth floor.
"So, this time, the Supreme One asked me to bring something."
"This thing is the key to activating the teleportation array. I hope it can send us to the ninety-ninth level."
"I’m sure you all want to know what this item is."
A faint smile appeared on Li Lingtian’s face. It was a proud smile.
As he spoke, he looked at the thirty-three Demon Emperors. He did not keep them in suspense. He used his divine sense and activated the Holy Demon Ring. Immediately, a magical item appeared in front of him.
Hiss!
Just as this item appeared in the air, the air on the 98th floor of the Heaven Ascension Demon Tower trembled and distorted. Space also continuously tore apart, looking extremely terrifying.
The thirty-three Demon Emperors were shocked as they stared at the item in front of Li Lingtian in shock.
A pitch-black staircase that was one meter wide and one meter long appeared in front of Li Lingtian. The staircase emanated a mysterious aura.
When they saw this step, they were all extremely shocked.
This was because this step was a complete Godfiend Crystal.
The God Demon Crystal was a supreme treasure of the Demon Race. If one refined the God Demon Crystal, they could quickly increase the cultivation of a Demon Race expert. This God Demon Crystal was countless times stronger than ordinary Demon Crystals. The two were on completely different levels.
Obtaining a tiny piece of Divine Demon Crystal was as difficult as ascending to the heavens, yet Li Lingtian actually had a Divine Demon Crystal in his possession that could create a staircase. It was simply indescribable.
"Godfiend crystals, they are Godfiend crystals."
The expressions of all the devil emperors kept changing. In the end, they could only be shocked.
To be able to take out such a magical thing, it was naturally not simple.
"That’s right. You might need my Godfiend Crystals to activate this teleportation array."
"The higher-ups have already said that if this matter succeeds, these God Demon Crystals will be given to everyone separately. Although these God Demon Crystals belong to the Supreme One, the higher-ups have already given him a lot of benefits."
The smile on Li Lingtian’s face widened. With a flick of his Divine Consciousness, he retracted the Divine Demon Crystal stairs.
After putting away the God Demon Crystal, he didn’t forget to say something to tempt these Demon Emperors. There was no Demon Emperor who didn’t like God Demon Crystals. If the God Demon Crystal fell into the hands of the Demon Emperor, his cultivation would rise sharply.
He treasured this God Demon Crystal, but now that he wanted to obtain the items on the 99th floor, he could only use it as bait.
If he obtained the items on the ninety-ninth level, he would naturally take the items and leave this place. He would not pay any attention to these Demon Emperors.
The prerequisite was that he had to obtain the items of the ninety-ninth level from the hands of these Demon Emperors.
"You’re Eastern Demon’s disciple, so I believe that your Array Dao is powerful."
"Let’s activate this teleportation array and enter the ninety-ninth level first."
One of the two most powerful Demon Emperors, Demon Emperor Ao Ming, spoke coldly. His cultivation base was not much weaker than Lord Long Huo’s. This was the impression he gave Li Lingtian.
His eyes glanced at Li Lingtian’s Divine Demon Crystal before he said coldly.
"Alright, I’ll think of a way to deal with this Array Dao."
"However, when the time comes to activate it, it won’t be a matter of just one person. I hope that everyone will lend me a hand when the time comes. Otherwise, I won’t be able to activate this array formation."
Li Lingtian nodded as he looked at Demon Emperor Ao Ming.
While dealing with the thirty-three Demon Emperors, he sized up the cultivation and strength of these Demon Emperors and thought of ways to deal with these Demon Emperors at the same time. With so many powerful Demon Emperors, it was really not an easy matter for him to obtain benefits under the noses of these Demon Emperors.
Moreover, this item might be related to the invasion of the Divine Martial Continent by the Devil Race. Therefore, these Devil Emperors would not be distracted at all. They would not let the item on the ninety-ninth floor fall into the hands of others.
Following that, Li Lingtian continued to examine the array altar. He cracked the structure of the array altar and thought of a way to enter the ninety-ninth level. However, he was more concerned about how to deal with the thirty-three Demon Emperor powerhouses.
He had other ways to get to the 99th level.
The last time he met Qing Wu, Qing Wu had said that as long as one reached the fourth note of the Eight Notes of the Heavenly Devil, they would be able to enter the ninety-ninth level. Qing Wu was the princess of the Demon World, so she naturally knew a lot about these things.
However, he would not use the method that Qing Wu had suggested so easily, lest the demons see any flaws.
Moreover, the most important thing for him now was to find a way to kill these Demon Emperors. Otherwise, something would happen when he went to the ninety-ninth level. It would be good if he could use the Array Dao to enter the ninety-ninth level. If there was no other way, he could only use the method that Qing Wu had mentioned.
Time passed day by day.
In six days, the thirty-three Demon Emperors and Li Lingtian had joined forces but they could not think of a way to enter the ninety-ninth level.
Li Lingtian’s expression was grave as he realized that the thirty-three Demon Emperors were looking down on him.
"Hey!"
Li Lingtian sighed with a solemn expression.
He stood up and swept his gaze across the array altar. Finally, he left the array altar and went to the other side.
The rest of the Demon Monarch powerhouses could tell from Li Lingtian’s expression that he was having a tough time with Li Lingtian. It was a matter of time before he could open the door.
Naturally, they did not know that Li Lingtian was not lamenting about the array formation but his inability to think of a way to deal with these Demon Emperors because there were simply too many of them.
Even with his current cultivation, he could only deal with Demon Emperor Ao Ming. He could not split his attention from the other Demon Emperors. Therefore, it was impossible to fight him head-on.
Sir Tian Ling, how is it? "
Heartless Demon Emperor asked Li Lingtian. He only knew that the young man was called Tian Ling, the disciple of the Soul Array Master, East Demon.
Seeing Li Lingtian’s grave expression on the array, they were all curious if he had any confidence.
When Heartless Demon Monarch asked Li Lingtian, the other Demon Monarchs were also looking at him.
They had been here for ten years and had not thought of a way to enter the ninety-ninth level. Now that a Soul Array Master had come, if even this Soul Array Master could not find a way, then it would be troublesome.
" There is a way to enter the ninety-ninth level, but it’s a little troublesome. "
"It’s just that I’m not confident. I can give it a try."
Li Lingtian spoke calmly. He was confident that he could teleport up to the array altar without the need for the Tianmo Zither. However, he was considering what to do after he went up.
He had been struggling with this problem for the past few days, but after a few days, he still could not find a way to deal with it.
Now, he could only enter the ninety-ninth level first.
"Then please give it a try."
"We have wasted too much time here. If we delay any longer, the Holy Master will blame us."
The Blood Demon was delighted to hear that Li Lingtian had a solution.
He had been here for ten years and had no way to enter. Now that he had a way to enter the ninety-ninth level, he was naturally happy.
"Sirs, please lend me a hand."
"However, I’ve already made it clear that if any of you do anything midway and affect the activation of the teleportation array, don’t blame me. I’ll be blunt. If everyone doesn’t work together, I won’t be able to activate the teleportation array no matter how powerful I am."
"Perhaps you will be teleported to another place because of your esteemed self. Don’t blame me for not reminding you."
Li Lingtian turned around and looked at the thirty-three Demon Emperors.
A serious expression appeared on his face as he spoke indifferently.
As he spoke, he paid attention to the changes in the expressions of the thirty-three Demon Emperors.
The thirty-three Demon Emperors were stunned when they heard Li Lingtian’s words. It was normal for Li Lingtian to ask them to activate the array formation together. However, it was hard to guarantee that he would have other thoughts along the way. If something unexpected happened, they would be wronged.
