Arons, across an endless expanse, nodded slightly at Qin Shilei, "You must be His Highness Prince Qin'an."
Qin Shilei also nodded back at the other, "Indeed, it is I, Qin. May I ask why Lord Arons seeks me?"
Arons said indifferently, "Your world has been targeted by the Lord of the Abyss. The Lord of the Abyss is an immortal power at the King realm. No matter how many divine powerhouses your world possesses, it is bound to fall!
I offer you a path to survival: surrender to me, accept the baptism of the Abyss, and become a Great Lord of the Abyss.
I permit you to claim the world called Blue Star as your personal domain. The Lord of the Abyss will also dispatch elites to help you defend against invasions from the Insect World and other alien realms."
Qin Shilei asked calmly, "I have heard that your Abyssal world has seven layers. May I ask who the Lord of the Abyss you speak of is, and which layer's Lord of the Abyss he is?"
Arons smiled faintly, "It seems you have some understanding of our Abyssal world. The Lord of the Abyss I speak of is precisely the Thousand-Eyed Spider King of the second layer!"
Qin Shilei casually remarked, "The Demon Lord of your Abyssal world also contacted me. What is his relation to you?"
Arons disdained, "The Demon Lord is merely the ruler of the first layer of the Abyss. His status in the Abyssal world is far inferior to our Thousand-Eyed Spider King. You need not heed his words."
Seeing Qin Shilei about to ask further questions, his expression darkened, and he asked coldly, "What have you decided? Will you join our Abyssal world or not?"
Qin Shilei stated plainly, "It's not impossible for me to join the Abyssal world. If your Thousand-Eyed Spider King relinquishes his position, I can reluctantly take it."
"You seek death!"
Arons let out a cold snort, his face icy.
As his words fell, the demon leader suddenly produced a black orb from his spatial ring.
Qin Shilei, who had been paying close attention, immediately noticed the movement. Just as he was about to casually send this group of demons to hell with a single sword strike.
He suddenly saw the black orb crack open, and a black mist rapidly spread from it, instantly enveloping several kilometers.
Qin Shilei turned and swiftly retrieved his subordinates.
By then, the black mist had enveloped him. However, under his Purple Eyes of Seeing Through Illusions, mere black mist could not obstruct his vision.
"Ah!"
Under the assault of the black mist, the dozens of demons opposite him rapidly corroded, soon becoming bloody and mangled, emitting piteous screams but making no attempt to escape.
Qin Shilei was about to teleport away but found that this black mist had no effect on him whatsoever.
"Heh heh, arrogant human, you are doomed."
Arons revealed a triumphant smile, "Do you think you're already a divine being, and mere poisonous mist can't affect you?"
As his words ended, a spectral light suddenly shot from his eyes.
Demon's Gaze!
The spectral light shot from his eyes and instantly struck Qin Shilei, leaving him no time to activate his teleportation to escape.
As the spectral light hit Qin Shilei, the surrounding black mist surged towards him with incredible speed, disappearing into his body in the blink of an eye.
Qin Shilei felt countless icy energies coursing through his body, and simultaneously, a violent thought surged in his Sea of Consciousness.
"Hahaha!"
Arons burst into laughter, "Prince Qin'an, Prince Qin'an, did you really think that with the protection of the spatial channel, we couldn't deal with you?
I had originally planned to personally come to Blue Star to deal with you after the barrier disappeared, but I never expected you to successfully advance to the Master realm in just one year.
Stop struggling. Having been struck by the Spider God's Poison I personally sought from the Lord of the Abyss, and the Demon's Gaze prepared for you by the Lord of the Abyss, you are destined to become a demon."
Qin Shilei was startled and was about to return to his Cave Heaven and Earth to find a way to dispel the poison the other party mentioned.
However, he found that the attribute on his Thunder God Body suddenly flashed with a silver light. Immediately, he discovered that the demonic energy that had just entered his body and the violent thoughts in his mind had all vanished without a trace.
Thunder God Body, Gods Repel, All Evils Shunned!
Nice!
It truly lived up to being a golden attribute, dispelling the Lord of the Abyss's schemes in the blink of an eye.
"Prince Qin'an, Prince Qin'an, why are you so unwise."
Arons said with a sneer, "If you had agreed to my terms earlier, you could have become a Great Lord under me, living a carefree life.
Why did you have to be uncooperative? Now you can only be a mindless demon puppet.
Tsk tsk, what a waste of such a peerless physique!"
"Are you done talking?" Qin Shilei looked at Arons as if he were an idiot.
"Uh!"
Arons froze, looking incredulous, "You haven't lost consciousness yet?"
Qin Shilei sneered, "What damn Lord of the Abyss, I see nothing special. You and your Thousand-Eyed Spider King better wait. In the near future, I, Qin, will definitely venture into the Abyss to demand retribution for today's insult!"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Arons was full of disbelief. "The methods of a King are not something a human who has just advanced to the Master realm can decipher."
"I know now, you must have a King realm powerhouse behind you."
Arons suddenly realized, "It must be so. Only the means of a King can break the casting of a King. Your rapid advancement must also be due to this King's help."
Qin Shilei smiled and did not refute the other party. "Now get back to your Abyss."
With that, he casually waved his hand, and a sharp sword energy shattered the mirror on the ground.
Arons's image also vanished into thin air.
Sheathing his sword, Qin Shilei, however, frowned.
Although he had just declared his intention to seek out the Thousand-Eyed Spider King in the Abyss, he clearly understood that he was likely no match for the Thousand-Eyed Spider King at this moment.
Throughout his journey, Qin Shilei had always been able to defeat enemies beyond his own level.
It seemed that the King realm and the Master realm were separated by only one level. Logically, Qin Shilei might also be able to defeat a King realm powerhouse by surpassing his level.
However, Qin Shilei had a feeling that there was a vast chasm between the King realm and the Master realm, one that his current strength could not challenge.
He had learned from the system that the barrier of Blue Star would disappear in less than a year, allowing powerhouses above the Master realm to enter Blue Star.
Qin Shilei had previously held a sliver of hope, believing that Blue Star, a world of no particular significance, would be a trivial planet in the eyes of those Kings. The invaders from other worlds would at most be at the Master realm. As long as he advanced to the Master realm, he could easily deal with them.
Now, he had learned from Arons that the Lord of the Abyss, a powerful entity, had already set his sights on Blue Star.
Once the subordinates of the Thousand-Eyed Spider King could not conquer Blue Star, the latter would personally intervene.
Moreover, there was the possibility of King realm powerhouses appearing from worlds like the Insect World and the Beast World.
The thought of this made Qin Shilei feel that the future of Blue Star was rather ominous.
