Mad God Evolution-Chapter 1620 - 1510: Intimidating by Power

"R...Respected Lv Sage, Mo Luo acted recklessly, but thankfully did not cause great harm. Might Lv...Lv Zhong spare this humble monk’s life?"

No Heaven Buddha Ancestor Mo Luo forced a bitter smile. He bowed respectfully to Lv Zhong, essentially pleading for mercy.

This time, he truly conceded defeat!

He had no choice but to lower his head.

After all, Lv Zhong now wasn’t just a true Sage but also had massive backing and an utterly Against the Heavens level of personal strength.

Most importantly, since escape was impossible, Mo Luo’s life was now firmly in Lv Zhong’s hands.

Mo Luo decidedly did not want to fall like this, dissipated entirely with nothing left.

As a result, he naturally chose to speak with more humility and respect toward Lv Zhong.

Lv Zhong gazed deeply at Mo Luo, nodded slightly, and smiled, saying, "It’s true that there’s no deep feud between us. At most, it was just a few skirmishes. I’m not entirely unwilling to spare you. However, even sages act for profit. What will you offer me to buy your life?"

What?

Mo Luo was instantly stunned, first feeling a faint elation, before quickly growing anxious.

Being able to live was undoubtedly good news, but it seemed Lv Zhong had his sights set on the things Mo Luo carried?

To purchase your life from the hands of a Sage, ordinary items likely wouldn’t even catch Lv Zhong’s eye.

"What...What has drawn your interest in me?" Mo Luo asked tremblingly.

If this fear-stricken state of his were exposed, it might shock countless celestials and devils.

Seeing Mo Luo terrified to this extent, Lv Zhong couldn’t help but be momentarily surprised, then directly said, "You don’t know?"

Mo Luo’s heart twitched, fearing he might guess incorrectly and unintentionally benefit Lv Zhong, so he shook his head instead.

Lv Zhong immediately understood this old fox’s mind games, his expression darkening as he coldly stated, "Let me spell it out for you, then. I’ve got my eyes on three things you harbor. First, your corpse—it can barely allow my Xuan Soldier Devouring Ants to further evolve. Second, your Chaotic Devil Soul and your Yuanshen—I have confidence in extracting their essence while discarding the dregs, aiding my brothers in cultivating Wu Shang devil techniques. Third, the one-third portion of your Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus..."

What?

Mo Luo froze completely, his whole body stiffened, even breaking into a rare cold sweat.

Terror!

At this moment, Mo Luo’s fear reached the extreme.

Facing Lv Zhong, he suddenly felt it would be far easier to deal with Master Hongjun instead.

After all, Master Hongjun was the venerated Taoist Ancestor of an entire universe, who, bound by his status and dignity, wouldn’t resort to sneaky or underhanded means. Even if he intended to kill Mo Luo, he wouldn’t strike in the shadows.

Lv Zhong, however, was not someone whose integrity could be assured when compared to Master Hongjun.

Think about it—how many battles had Lv Zhong fought where he never adhered to conventions? How many times had Lv Zhong executed ambushes and mob tactics?

The man before him was indeed a Sage, but undoubtedly a dangerous one.

"What is your decision?" Lv Zhong gazed deeply at Mo Luo, who was still visibly lost, and said indifferently, "If you remain silent, I’ll assume you’ve consented to my taking the first and second items..."

As his voice fell, Mo Luo trembled uncontrollably in terror.

Such words from Lv Zhong were no less than pronouncing Mo Luo’s death sentence.

If Mo Luo were truly annihilated by Lv Zhong, he would surely be the most bitterly aggrieved Chaotic Devil Ancestor.

Besides, while the Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus was indeed incredibly powerful—a true pinnacle Chaos Supreme Treasure spirit root—it wasn’t in its complete form under Mo Luo’s possession. At most, he only controlled a third of it, while the other portions belonged to Luo Hou and Burial Month.

Only when the three portions of the Black Lotus were united would it become a complete Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus—a true Chaos Supreme Treasure spirit root, with potential for evolution into something even greater.

"Lv...Lv Sage, I...I’ll give it to you. I...I choose to hand over the Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus in exchange for my life..." said Mo Luo in a trembling voice, squeezing out these words with all his strength.

It must be noted that the Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus represented the very essence of the Chaotic Devil Ancestor. It symbolized the inclusion of his will within the Pangu Universe.

Where there is Tao, there must also be demons.

Just as light cannot exist without darkness.

This Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus was precisely the emblem of the Chaotic Devil Ancestor lineage in the Pangu Universe.

To possess the Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus was to hold the purest identity of the Demon Clan in the Pangu Universe, with the potential to grow into the next Chaotic Devil Ancestor.

Lv Zhong had already annihilated another avatar of the Chaotic Devil Ancestor—Burial Month—within the Chaotic World of Demons, obtaining Burial Month’s piece of the Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus. Adding Mo Luo’s piece today would grant him two-thirds of the Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus.

All that remained was to seize the Black Lotus in Luo Hou’s possession, and Lv Zhong would have the complete Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus.

Lv Zhong wasn’t keeping the complete Black Lotus for himself, but rather preparing to present it to his good friend Tang Lei. That guy was a genuine Devil Cultivator. With the Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus assisting him, his growth would be nothing short of miraculous. It wouldn’t be far-fetched to envision him as the next-generation Chaotic Devil Ancestor.

"Heh, a wise man submits to circumstances. Since you’ve decided, hand over the Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus," Lv Zhong said with a light chuckle, bluntly accepting the offer.

To Lv Zhong, exerting pressure through power had no moral qualms.

This Mo Luo was far from an honest figure. Using the Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus, he had controlled countless celestial, Buddhist, demonic, and devil entities, while simultaneously creating immeasurable karma.

Normally, Lv Zhong would have wiped him out with ease.

However, Lv Zhong’s strength had surged significantly, and he noticed that No Heaven Buddha Ancestor Mo Luo’s destiny was plummeting rapidly.

With such a swift decline in destiny, it wouldn’t take long for Mo Luo to suffer drastic losses in assets—or even face life-threatening peril.

Given this context, why would Lv Zhong prematurely kill him? Why not first extract the treasures in his possession?

Even if Lv Zhong couldn’t use them himself, he could always pass them along!

Thinking this way, Lv Zhong opted without hesitation to wield power and pressure.

"Who told you to offend me?" Lv Zhong muttered to himself, his gaze once again falling on Mo Luo, conveying the clear intent that if Mo Luo refused, he wouldn’t hesitate to take action.

"Sigh, so be it!"

Mo Luo let out a heart-heavy sigh. As the saying goes, where there’s life, there’s hope. If he perished entirely, he’d truly lose everything.

Reluctant though he was to give up this supreme treasure that had accompanied him for countless eons, he feared death even more.

With a pang of bitterness, he painfully took out the Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus and handed it to Lv Zhong.

Lv Zhong immediately grinned, barely sparing it a glance before nonchalantly tossing the Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus into the [Great Annihilation Pearl].

Instantly, Mo Luo realized he’d lost all connection to the Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus.

What made his scalp tingle further was the inability to sense even the faintest trace of the Chaos Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus’s aura using his Primordial Spirit Power.

"Puh-puh-puh..."

Mo Luo suddenly and inexplicably spat seven consecutive mouthfuls of essence blood.

This abrupt hemorrhage made him realize that the Yuanshen imprint embedded in the Chaos Black Lotus’s core nexus had been thoroughly erased.

"Hiss..."

At this moment, Mo Luo was finally subdued.

Lv Zhong was indeed terrifying beyond imagination! (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit Starting Point (qidian.com) to cast recommendation votes and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
