Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings

Chapter 68: Chapter 68: A Twist of Fate, Monopolizing the Deceitful Qi

At this moment, the battle on their side had already ended.

On the other side, Lü Dong, who had transformed into the Headless Xingtian, was still engaged in a fierce battle with the Headless General.

However, among all the Life Pattern Masters present, except for Lin Yuan, the others didn’t even have the chance to participate in such a grand battle.

Not to mention, just the shockwaves from the battle between Lü Dong and the Headless General were more than they could withstand.

The saying ”when the city gate catches fire, the fish in the moat suffer” is surely wisdom from the ancestors.

Lin Yuan, having slain three Tier Seven Yin Generals, was not yet satisfied; he genuinely wanted to go up and exchange blows with the Headless General.

Lin Yuan knew that with his current strength, at full power, dealing with ordinary Tier Six Evil Spirits would be no problem.

However, the Headless Corpse King was no ordinary Tier Six Evil Spirit.

He was at the peak of Tier Six, a Half-Step Tier Five.

Only a step away from entering Tier Five.

For evil spirits, there was a huge dividing line between Tier Six and Tier Five.

Because Tier Five Evil Spirits possessed the power of a Realm.

Deceitful Demon.

A Tier Five Evil Spirit could choose a piece of territory, refining it into their own Deceitful Realm, where their strength would be greatly amplified.

It would not be an exaggeration to call them the ruler in the Deceitful Realm.

In his past life, Lin Yuan had heard many legends about the Deceitful Realm.

During the Deceitful Invasion 3.0 version, he had heard of an evil spirit called Yin Mountain Old Gu, who refined a mountain range stretching over a dozen miles into its own Deceitful Realm.

And another evil spirit called Sealed Door Gu refined a village into a Deceitful Realm, which later became known as Sealed Door Village.

....

...

Even during the Deceitful Invasion 2.0 version, only a few powerful evil spirits possessed their own Deceitful Realm in the mid to late stages.

The large-scale emergence of Deceitful Realms occurred during the Deceitful Invasion 3.0 version.

However, shortly after the start of the Deceitful Invasion 3.0 version, Lin Yuan was gone!

So, he only heard about Deceitful Realms and had never seen one.

After all, entering a Deceitful Realm and wishing to come out alive is no easy feat.

All in all, a Deceitful Realm is something only a Tier Five Evil Spirit can possess.

The stronger the evil spirit after entering Tier Five, the more powerful their Deceitful Realm becomes.

The Headless General before him, although displaying strong combat power.

However, he doesn’t have his own Deceitful Realm.

So, he can only be considered as a Tier Six Peak, Half-Step Tier Five.

If he truly steps into Tier Five and possesses his own Deceitful Realm.

Then, perhaps, in the current Deceitful Invasion 1.0 version, no one would be able to deal with him.

Lin Yuan’s gaze was fixed intently on the Headless General, wanting very much to rush forward and have a match with the Headless General.

But looking at Lü Dong, who had transformed into the Headless Xingtian, Lin Yuan finally did not take action.

Perhaps, today’s protagonist should be him!

For this, he paid with his life, so defeating the Headless General should be his glory.

Lin Yuan felt that he should not, and could not, take away the honor that rightfully belonged to Lü Dong.

...

...

The dense Deceitful Qi rolled like a solidified mist.

Lin Yuan looked at the Life Pattern Masters present and took the initiative to say, ”Everyone, hurry up and absorb the Deceitful Qi to recover your strength!”

This group of Yin Soldiers was hunted by all the Life Pattern Masters present, so naturally, these Deceitful Qi should be shared by everyone.

Even if shared, it would still be a significant harvest.

The Life Pattern Masters present, even Lin Yuan himself, had never seen such abundant Deceitful Qi.

The scene of Lin Yuan just slaying three Tier Seven Yin Generals was witnessed by everyone present.

Apart from Lü Dong, who had taken his own life and transformed into the Headless Xingtian, Lin Yuan was the strongest among them.

Therefore, after Lin Yuan spoke, these Life Pattern Masters all sat cross-legged, beginning to absorb the nearly liquefied Deceitful Qi around them.

The surrounding Deceitful Qi was really too dense.

When the Life Pattern Masters activated the Tattoo Power within them, the Deceitful Qi began drilling into their tattoos.

Lin Yuan also sat cross-legged, closing his eyes to focus.

At this moment, he felt the Black Impermanence Tattoo on his body seemed to transform into a black hole vortex, continuously devouring the surrounding Deceitful Qi.

If the speed at which the other Life Pattern Masters absorbed the Deceitful Qi was like a slow-flowing mountain stream.

Then the speed at which Lin Yuan absorbed Deceitful Qi was like the surging Yangtze and Yellow Rivers.

Initially, the Black Impermanence Tattoo on Lin Yuan still needed a lot of Deceitful Qi before awakening.

However, as the surrounding Deceitful Qi was continuously swallowed into his body, the Black Impermanence Tattoo showed signs of awakening.

The Life Pattern Masters around him had just been seated for less than ten minutes, only just starting to replenish their depletion with the Deceitful Qi.

They were about to absorb more Deceitful Qi to enhance their strength when they suddenly noticed the Deceitful Qi had disappeared.

Yes, it had all vanished.

When they opened their eyes, they saw a shocking scene.

The nearly liquefied Deceitful Qi around had turned into a substantial Deceitful Qi river, like a waterfall, suspended upside down over Lin Yuan’s head.

Above the Deceitful Qi river was an endless dark sky, while below was the connection to Lin Yuan’s body.

In the Deceitful Qi river, vast and pure Deceitful Qi surged into Lin Yuan’s body like a hundred streams flowing to the sea.

Numerous Life Pattern Masters: ”????”

Upon witnessing this scene, the numerous Life Pattern Masters felt their heads buzzing.

Wasn’t everyone here a Life Pattern Master? Why does this Deceitful Qi only let you absorb and not us?

This was the thought in the hearts of the Life Pattern Masters present.

Brothers and sisters.

A great speechless incident.

Who understands!

Today, these Deceitful Qi simply showed their wickedness!

These Deceitful Qi would not let us absorb them, allowing him alone to do so.

”Isn’t it?”

”This kid is a bit too inconsiderate, isn’t he?”

”He absorbed all this Deceitful Qi by himself. He eats the meat, leaves us not even the soup!” one Life Pattern Master said somewhat dejectedly.

Evidently, he was not the only one with such thoughts.

After all, everyone had contributed to hunting these Yin Soldiers today.

Some even staked their lives.

Now, when it came time to absorb the Deceitful Qi, they hardly absorbed it for ten minutes, not even a tenth of the total amount.

As a result, Lin Yuan gobbled up all the remaining Deceitful Qi himself.

A bit of dissatisfaction in their hearts was understandable.

At this time, a middle-aged man from the official Life Pattern Master team stepped forward to calm the emotions of the Life Pattern Masters present.

”Brothers, you should also see that this young brother did not do it intentionally.”

”It should be because his tattoo level is too high, so this situation occurred when absorbing Deceitful Qi.”

”This is an unforeseen circumstance, however, we have all seen this young brother’s strength. Him absorbing all that Deceitful Qi is another strong pillar for our Peng City.”

”Today, for him to come here, I believe next time when our Peng City is in peril, he will certainly not stand idly by.”

”Of course, today’s losses will not be in vain. I, representing the officials, assure you that what you didn’t absorb in Deceitful Qi today, we will compensate by hunting down evil spirits to replenish everyone’s share at a later date.”
