"I'm not afraid of death. All I care about is continuity and inheritance. If I can achieve that, even if my body is shattered and my soul scatters, I will have no regrets!"
Li Xunyuan's eyes flickered, as if containing endless possibilities. At this moment, his will was firm and his wishes were grand and vast, but the response he got was mocking!
"You probably won't be able to see that scene..."
Zhou Tong sneered, his aura surging, making him shudder.
It was obvious that the young human in front of him did not show any signs of cultivation, just like an ordinary person. He should be able to destroy him easily without any difficulty.
But the mere thought of this made his internal organs tremble and sent out the most intense warning.
He was sure that if he showed even the slightest abnormality, he would be killed without a trace left.
He is a genuine sixth-level Saint King!
"I've already said it, I've already made up my mind. I can accept any outcome. Even if I die, I have no regrets..."
"Of course, if there's a one in ten thousand chance that my people and I can survive, we will spend our entire lives atonement, fighting to the death. That way, the children of our race can live on with a clean, new identity. I think the human race should be able to tolerate these children!"
Hearing this question, Zhou Tong's eyes flickered, and he changed the subject: "Lifelong atonement is easy to say, but it is the most difficult to execute. Every living being instinctively seeks pleasure. Even if they can exercise self-discipline for a while, what about a hundred years later, or even ten thousand years later!"
"If you don't try, how will you know the result?"
Ning Yuanxun smiled. Since Zhou Tong asked this question and did not kill him immediately, it meant that he had the idea of exploring this possibility. That was enough. At least it meant that they still had a glimmer of hope!
"But it would be easier to just kill you all, wouldn't it? There would be no more accidents in the future!"
A powerful aura surged out from Zhou Tong again and hit Ning Yuanxun heavily.
Now he was certain that the other party was truly terrifying. If they really fought, he might not even be able to resist!
"I can do this!"
"It's just you. I saw what happened just now. You do have great perseverance, but where are your people?"
"I am willing to bear all the consequences of their actions..."
The other party patted his chest, and his tone became radical and high-pitched. He had to do so because he clearly felt that he was walking between life and death at this moment, carrying the lives of his entire clan on his shoulders. If he was not careful, he would end up in irreparable disaster.
In order to fight for the future, we must completely abandon our dignity and show our utmost sincerity!
"hehe…"
Zhou Tong smiled, and suddenly, a ray of light pierced through the void and pierced his chest without any hindrance!
"you!!!"
Ning Yuanxun staggered backward, severe pain spreading throughout his body, his eyes filled with horror and deep despair.
Sure enough, it still doesn't work? It seems that even if they are willing to give up everything and sincerely repent, the human race is still unwilling to accept them!
“What a shame…”
He murmured to himself, his heart bitter and filled with resentment.
Only after he was transformed into a human did he realize that he was truly alive. Looking back now, his past as a creature of the three races was no different from being in hell.
They are helpless at all times and can only act according to the control of the mysterious will. Even if they have great power, what can they do? They are nothing more than killing machines, dogs with collars around their necks!
It was obvious that they were only one step away, just one step away from breaking free from the shackles and embracing infinite possibilities, but they never expected that this short distance would become an insurmountable chasm!
It’s all about time and fate!
"Open your eyes and stand up!"
Zhou Tong's voice came from the front, startling him suddenly. He touched his chest in disbelief.
"I'm not dead?"
He sucked in a breath of cold air. The severe pain just now pressed on his body and mind at the same time, making him feel that his existence was about to be wiped out. It was an intense feeling of impending death that was almost irreversible.
But now the severe pain has disappeared, and not even a wound is left. What happened?
In doubt, he opened the clothes on his chest, but his heart suddenly skipped a beat and a look of horror appeared on his face.
“What is this…?”
He asked, and saw a palm-sized red mark in the center of his chest. With it as the center, it spread outward like a spider web, covering his entire torso.
"This is the Flash of Implicate... You may not understand, but I can tell you that it was this move that wiped out the entire Galactus Clan!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the other party's pupils suddenly trembled and cold sweat broke out all over his body.
"Just now, I have marked all of your clansmen. I only need to think about it and use you as the anchor to launch this move. Anyone weaker than you will be turned to dust in an instant!"
"I see, so that's how it is. This is how the Galactus were destroyed!"
The other party finally realized what was going on, and his whole body was shocked, and the cold sweat on his body was immediately evaporated.
"That's great!"
Somewhat to Zhou Tong's surprise, the other party not only did not show any fear, shame or anger, but instead seemed relieved, as if a huge stone had been put down in his heart.
"You seem a little happy. Is there something wrong with your brain?"
"On the contrary, my mind is clear!"
The other party said, kneeling on one knee to Zhou Tong: "Can I understand that you are giving us a chance, a chance to survive!"
"Yes, but the conditions are very harsh. If you fail to fulfill your promise of lifelong atonement, or if you fail to control your men and allow them to harm innocent humans again, then their fate will be..."
"I understand. When the lower ranks make mistakes, the higher-ups don't notice. I'm willing to punish myself with the ultimate punishment to shoulder their sins!"
"Since this is what you asked, I agree."
Zhou Tong looked down at the other party from a high position and said, "Similarly, if you are the first to break your promise, I will delete your entire clan!"
Hearing this, Li Yuanxun's expression became extremely solemn, but he finally nodded heavily.
He has no choice!
"I accept this punishment, but I also believe that this thing will probably never be used."
He looked at the lines on his chest and said firmly.
"Wrong. While it's possible that the genocide effect won't be triggered, there's another effect I have to use."
"What!!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Yuanxun tensed up instantly, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, with goose bumps covering his body.
Zhou Tong extended his hand towards him and said in a cold voice, "I have the right to give you a chance to atone for your sins, but I don't have the right to forgive you on behalf of those who died tragically. You are still alive, but they have lost hope forever!"
"You must endure enough pain to allow their souls to rest in peace, so that they can enter the cycle of reincarnation with peace of mind..."
"this…"
Ning Yuanxun trembled all over and couldn't help but take a step back, but then, a burning sensation from the soul arose and spread throughout his body in an instant.
“Ahhhh!!”
He suppressed a cry of pain and couldn't help shaking his body, but he heard the screams of his tribesmen in the distance, which made his heart ache.
"I've already said it, I'm willing to bear the punishment for them. No matter how painful it is, let it all fall on me. Please let them go!"
The other party pleaded, not for himself, but for his subordinates.
"You can't afford it, and you don't have the qualifications. They must experience this pain firsthand!"
"Don't even think about using that connection technique anymore. Not only will it not have any effect, it may even aggravate the symptoms. If you don't believe me, you can definitely try it, but at your own risk!"
"Uh...how come?"
Suddenly, beads of cold sweat broke out on the other party's forehead again. He now suspected that Zhou Tong didn't want to give them any chance at all, but just wanted to torture them to death.
Even if they are willing to atone for their sins throughout their lives, no one can endure torture for a lifetime. These are two completely different things. If they choose the latter, it would be better for them to die out directly.
"Don't be nervous. I won't let you suffer forever. You can suffer for half an hour a day. You can also set the time you want to endure. Am I being kind?"
Zhou Tong clapped his hands, temporarily stopping the pain.
“Hehe…hahaha!!”
Suddenly, the other party burst into laughter, and his voice was full of incomprehensible meaning.
"Can't you accept it? If that's the case, I can still cancel it..."
"No, this is good. You may not know this, it's just right for us. It's even a little gentle!"
The other party quickly interrupted, "You don't understand. When we were members of the Sun Devouring Tribe, the torture and suffering we endured every day was much more horrific than this!
"That's great!"
Zhou Tong nodded, and his expression became much more relaxed.
"I can promise you that if you truly abide by your oath, this pain will not follow you forever. The more harmoniously you integrate into humanity and the more sincere and obedient you are, the weaker the mark of this curse will become, until it will eventually disappear completely!"
"Thank you for your gift, Your Excellency!"
Li Yuanxun nodded. Even the address had changed. At this moment, he was completely convinced.
"sit!"
Zhou Tong waved his hand, and tables and chairs immediately appeared on the ground. He also dropped from the air and sat down with Li Yuanxun, looking at each other.
"Tell me about your past. I know nothing about it and I'm very interested!"
Hearing this, the other party immediately straightened his back and his expression became extremely solemn.
He knew very well that the reason they had the chance to survive was largely due to Zhou Tong's interest in them.
Faced with this question, he had to answer it with extreme caution and without making any mistakes.
"You've come to the right person to ask me this. Perhaps I'm the only one in the world who can give you the most comprehensive answer!"
"Why is that?"
Because of my strength!
"Sixth level of Saint King?"
"Yes, this is a watershed moment. The moment I stepped into it, I awakened many memories that I shouldn't have!"
