Chapter 1163: 522: The Dragon Emperor’s Truth! Devouring the Demonic God Ruins!

What does Lanling want at this moment?

Of course, power, immense power!

With power, he can defeat Du yan, with power he can lead the brothers of the Foreign Tribe Army towards independence and establish his own tribe, with power he can build an empire in The Barbaric Wilderness and lead millions of troops back to the Human Kingdom.

And now, this Demonic God Ruins before him claims it can satisfy any wish of Lanling.

Moreover, the origin of the Dragon Emperor’s strength apparently came from here!

This Demonic God Ruins claims that the Dragon Emperor’s strength was granted by it.

Lanling spoke: "If I make a wish and you fulfill it, what do I need to pay?"

The Demonic God Ruins, the Eye of Light and Shadow, replied: "You need to make a mental contract with me."

Lanling asked: "What kind of mental contract?"

The Demonic God Ruins said: "Four hundred years from now, your soul must come to serve me!"

Lanling responded with shock: "Did the previous person fulfill his contract?"

The Demonic God Ruins shook its head: "He didn’t come to fulfill the contract, but not out of unwillingness; he couldn’t make it."

Lanling immediately thought that perhaps the Dragon Emperor had already been imprisoned by the Dragon Temple.

The Demonic God Ruins said: "Exchange your future freedom for four hundred years of greatness, four hundred years of commanding the wind and rain; it’s normal and worthwhile."

Is it normal? Is it worthwhile?

If Lanling were a noble and pure person, he naturally would feel it’s not worthwhile; life is precious, love is more valuable, and for freedom, both can be abandoned.

But for the current Lanling, not to mention four hundred years of greatness, even a hundred years would be enough.

Now, his sole goal is to destroy the Dragon Temple and rescue his loved ones.

Revenge, revenge, revenge!

So, the only thing Lanling desires is power, strength!

The Demonic God Ruins said slowly: "Alright, state your wish, I will fulfill it."

The flame at the center of its Eye of Light and Shadow once again contracted, becoming even brighter and more intense.

Lanling knew that when a person is nervous and excited, the pupil instinctively contracts.

Then, what is the Demonic God Ruins excited or nervous about?

Lanling never believed in the stroke of luck from heaven.

More importantly, this Pyramid had about seventy-five thousand steps.

Is there an issue with this number?

No issues precisely because it was too perfect.

Lanling had calculated that the circular base of the Pyramid’s triangular foundation had a diameter of fifty kilometers, roughly fifty thousand meters.

Thus, Lanling speculated that the Pyramid’s height was around twenty to thirty thousand meters, making the final number of steps seventy-five thousand.

And reaching the top resulted in precisely this number.

Not only this, but there are four doors of Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter.

The Summer Door, Lanling thought would be filled with scorching heat, and indeed it was.

The Winter Door, Lanling thought would be terrifyingly cold, and indeed it was.

The Autumn Door, Lanling thought would be heavy with fruits, hence gravity doubled, and indeed gravity doubled.

Whatever Lanling imagined, ended up happening, exactly as anticipated.

Was he really that formidable? Able to guess each thing so accurately?

Of course not, there was another reason.

Furthermore, when Lanling asked who was the previous person who climbed to the pinnacle of the Pyramid and faced the Demonic God Ruins, the image of the Dragon Emperor came to his mind.

Then, the Demonic God Ruins claimed it didn’t know who that person was but stated they came over three thousand years ago.

Quite notably, when first mentioning the Dragon Emperor, there was no gender reference. In the Demonic God Ruins’ description, it also avoided specifying the gender of the first person to face it.

When Lanling referred to him, the Demonic God Ruins used the same reference.

Of course, the pronunciation for "he" and "she" is the same, but Lanling and the Demonic God Ruins were communicating mentally, making their distinction clear.

Every time, it was Lanling who first envisioned it in his mind, and then the Demonic God Ruins would say it.

Based on all these, Lanling reached a conclusion.

Everything before him was false!

This multithousand-meter Pyramid is false, the four doors of Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter are false.

Seventy thousand plus steps are false too, the heat of the Summer Door, the cold of the Winter Door, the decay of the Spring Door, the gravity doubling of the Autumn Door.

It’s all false.

Including the first person appearing before the Demonic God Ruins being the Dragon Emperor, that was false too.

Of course, the Demonic God Ruins claimed that as long as Lanling told it a wish, whether it was dominance over the world or immense power, it could make it happen. The condition being that four hundred years later, he sells his soul to it.

Regarding this point, there is truth and falsehood!

Firstly, once Lanling speaks, say, about requiring mountain-moving, ocean-splitting power, surpassing the Dragon Emperor’s strength.

Afterwards, Lanling could really feel that power. Whether through seemingly arduous training or instant results, ultimately, he could genuinely sense mountain-moving, heaven-destroying power.

However, all of this merely occurs in Lanling’s mind alone, just an illusion.

The so-called four hundred years in the Spiritual Illusion, in reality, is merely an instant.

Then, Lanling completely becomes a slave to this Demonic God Ruins, forever losing his freedom.

Hence, what’s before Lanling is merely a trap of the Demonic God Ruins!

Everything Lanling perceives is an illusion!
