Chapter 197 This is the difference
However, it is also possible that the emperor would destroy this ancient tomb.
The reason is simple: the Old King is not dead yet, and the destruction of his masterpiece might enrage him. Even in the vast Dark Dimension, few can rival the Old King; he is one of the most powerful emperors.
No one would choose to touch his brow.
If the ancient king is awakened, the underworld of the dark dimension might be thrown into chaos, which would lead to a major reshuffle. Therefore, even if some emperors want to destroy this ancient tomb, they will be stopped by the emperors belonging to the underworld.
Although the crack opened now, the emperors in the ancient tomb could still locate it using the power of the Netherworld Bell.
Because of their fear, they have remained silent.
"So you monarchs also want some Dark Essence? As far as I know, that stuff is useless against monarch-level beings, after all, it's something from over two thousand years ago."
The giant demon chuckled: "Of course not. We just came in incidentally. The main thing is we're quite free."
Besides, there are treasures in ancient tombs. Just consider it a treasure hunt; if you find them, great joy; if not, so be it.
The giant demon was quite carefree. It was incredibly boring in the dark dimension, killing people here and there every day. It was driving people crazy. So when an incident finally happened, it was natural to come and see what was going on.
"Then you can play slowly by yourself, but you have to get me out of here first," Liu Qi said.
"No." The giant demon shook its head, causing Liu Qi to narrow his eyes.
"What do you mean? You won't even let me out?!" His expression was rather unpleasant.
"It's not that I don't want to see you off, it's just that if I don't know how to leave, the monarch is quite powerful, but not omnipotent, and not good at this kind of thing, it's normal that you can't get out," the giant demon said matter-of-factly.
This made Liu Qi's lips twitch. Was he still thinking about the treasure?
Go fart away, you can't even do this little thing right.
Liu Qi shook his head, preparing to leave. He couldn't rely on the demons anymore and had to rely on himself. If he could get out on his own, it would be better to find Boss Wu and the others first and then leave together.
Liu Qi took two steps and stopped, lost in thought. He then turned to look at the giant demon, "What kind of godforsaken place is this?"
Liu Qi was bewildered. This was not the cave he had been in before, but an indescribable place. At least Liu Qi didn't know where he was, otherwise he wouldn't have asked the giant demon.
Being trapped in another place was a bit unusual for Liu Qi. It wasn't that the place was particularly dangerous, but he hadn't expected to be trapped before he could even react, which was quite unbelievable.
He didn't believe anyone in the world could do such a thing.
"How would I know?" The giant demon waved its hand, indicating that it was innocent.
He was indeed in a cave just now, but now that time was up, he was forcibly pulled back. Although he was a monarch, this power was irresistible. It came from the power of an emperor, left behind by an ancient king. It would be difficult to deal with other emperors, but it was easy to deal with some monarchs.
"I was careless. I really didn't think of that." Liu Qi said helplessly. He sat down, and the giant demon also sat down.
The treasure is nowhere to be found, but the magic-absorbing amateur can do it here, meaning the giant remote control is even better than Liu Qi's.
"How about it? Do you want me to lend a hand? I happen to be free right now, let me see what you're capable of," the giant demon said, quite interested.
"Whatever you want, but you might not understand it. Besides—I've never been to this place before. It must be a special method for dealing with creatures from the dark dimension," Liu Qi murmured.
He had visited the ancient tomb several times, but always as a human. As a result, he had taken care of most of the human aspects of it and knew most of it. However, this might have been specifically designed to deal with creatures from the dark dimension.
He has no experience coming from the dark dimension, and the bell has only rung a few times in the past two thousand years, so it's normal that he doesn't understand.
All I can say is that the Ancient King was powerful; he even created a special system to deal with the Dark Dimension.
Liu Qi reached out and placed his hand in mid-air. This place was now similar to the time of Lord Wu'an. It was somewhat empty, but not entirely. If you looked closely, you could see the city below, but you could only look and not touch it.
Liu Qi pulled himself out of his thoughts, refusing to think about it. The energy within his body was unsealed, and a powerful spatial search began. He needed to find a loophole here and then leave.
Liu Qi waited patiently for the result. The giant demon did not disturb Liu Qi, but just stared blankly out of boredom.
After a while, Liu Qi withdrew his power, and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
"What's wrong? Judging from your appearance, you haven't found your way out. What a pity. You can't find the way back to the city, but there is a way to the dark dimension. Do you want to leave with me?" the giant demon joked.
Liu Qi's failure was expected, although there were reasons to it, but he just felt that Liu Qi could not succeed, and now it seems that it really is so, and his sixth sense has become much stronger.
Liu Qi glared at the giant demon in a bad mood, but didn't reply.
He used his spatial powers to explore every place here, but each place was as solid as a rock, indestructible, without any flaws, as if it were a whole, a perfect whole.
Such a thing shouldn't exist. Even if the space system creates a cage, it's pieced together, not a whole. The corners where they're pieced together are thinner than other places; it's just an unchanging law.
Liu Qi had never encountered such a strange thing in all his years of life.
Liu Qi was suddenly stunned. He never expected that such a thing existed. There were things or creatures that could do such a thing. He had been using it all along but had never discovered it.
That's a Nen Beast, a space-type divine beast. It's now nearly extinct, but there should still have been quite a few during the time of the Ancient Kings.
It's not strange to have a Nen Beast that is close to the Ancient King.
It's perfectly normal for the power of the Nen Beast combined with the might of the Ancient King to create such a spatial cage.
He had been using the power of the Mind Beast but hadn't thought of this. Liu Qi chuckled self-deprecatingly.
"So you've figured out a way to leave, congratulations," said the giant demon.
Liu Qi's expression changed.
He seemed to have found the way. He was somewhat emotional, wondering what he was doing when he was at the middle level in his previous life.
And what are people in the middle ranks doing now? The gap is just too big.
Is this the progress of our times? It has reached such a point that it's hard not to feel a sense of awe.
It's incredible that they found a way to get rid of the food so quickly.
He has not been able to find it, partly because he didn't want to look for it; after all, he wasn't in the mood, and he could return to the Dark Dimension at any time if he wanted to.
But no matter what, he couldn't find the way, while I, Liu Qi, did. That's the difference.
