Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings

Ironback Mountain.

Ever since the Iron-Back Daoist blew himself up here last time, it can no longer be called Ironback Mountain.

Because the mountain has already been blown to bits.

Now, this place should be called Ironback Lake....

Not quite right either, calling it Ironback Lake doesn’t work, as there’s no water here!

Then...

Hmm!

It seems that calling it Ironback Pit is most appropriate.

Not far from Ironback Pit, the figure of Lin Yuan appeared.

The teleportation gate Lin Yuan used was a new one, created by the dean after optimizing the Liu Family’s teleportation gate technology.

This teleportation gate is no longer like the Liu Family’s, used only once as a disposable object.

The dean’s optimized teleportation gate can be used long-term as long as energy is input.

However, this teleportation gate has a downside, which is its inability to actively choose its destination.

Instead, it passively refreshes its coordinates.

The coordinates from which you depart will automatically be refreshed for the next arrival.

If this flaw of the teleportation gate is discovered by the evil spirits of the Mysterious World, Lin Yuan could easily be ambushed!

Originally, the dean was prepared to optimize this flaw.

However, after Lin Yuan handed over the old Chinese pagoda tree roots to the dean, he became fully immersed in research on the tree.

The optimization plan for the teleportation gate has been indefinitely postponed.

There is nothing Lin Yuan can do but make do for now.

He speculates that no one else would ambush him.

After all, the evil spirits in this Mysterious World don’t even know that he is human, let alone how he came to this world.

Every time Lin Yuan appears, he appears in the form of Zhong Kui’s demon form, looking like a local of the Mysterious World.

Of course, Lin Yuan does not know that the World Honored has issued an order to hunt him down.

The World Honored is reputed to know five hundred years before and after, calculating his whereabouts is no difficulty for him.

However, for some special reasons, the World Honored cannot easily take action.

Every time the World Honored acts, he must pay a huge price.

So, he sent the Joyful Vajra to kill him.

Otherwise, if the World Honored took action, Lin Yuan would have nowhere to escape in the Mysterious World.

In the sky, the Eagle Demon and Snake Demon took turns monitoring the direction of Ironback Mountain.

At this time, the Snake Demon was semi-reclining among the clouds resting, while the Eagle Demon was intently staring down at Ironback Mountain.

They are on two shifts, the Eagle Demon is in charge of daytime monitoring, and the Snake Demon is in charge of nighttime monitoring.

The moment Lin Yuan appeared, the Eagle Demon’s keen eyes instantly locked onto Lin Yuan.

Joyful Vajra had shown them Lin Yuan’s picture; they had it etched in their minds, even if he turned to ash, they would recognize him.

”Chi Lian, the kid has appeared!” The Eagle Demon’s voice was slightly shrill.

Upon hearing this, the Snake Demon named ”Chi Lian” instantly awoke, staring intently downwards.

Soon, she also spotted Lin Yuan.

”Hei Yu, I’ll keep an eye on this kid, you’re fast, go and report to the master!” the Snake Demon told the Eagle Demon.

However, the Eagle Demon continued to stare closely at Lin Yuan, unmoved.

”Chi Lian, I say, why don’t we both make a move and capture this kid directly, to meet the master!”

”The merit of reporting to the master is nowhere near as great as catching this kid.”

”This kid has barely reached Tier Four, not as long as us; two against one, capturing this kid is a sure win!” suggested the Eagle Demon.

Upon hearing this suggestion, the Snake Demon felt slightly tempted.

After pondering for a while, the Snake Demon ultimately rejected the Eagle Demon’s proposal.

The Snake Demon is not only a subordinate of Joyful Vajra but also one of the Joyful Vajra’s concubines.

Due to her frequent close encounters with Joyful Vajra, she understands his temper very well.

Joyful Vajra has a very controlling nature and dislikes others disobeying his commands.

The command Joyful Vajra had given them was to keep an eye on Ironback Mountain at all times and report to him immediately upon spotting the kid.

If the two of them defied Joyful Vajra’s command, even catching the kid would likely result in punishment.

Could possibly lead to their deaths.

”You should know the master’s temper!”

”The penalty for defying commands might be unbearable!” the Snake Demon reminded.

Upon hearing this, the Eagle Demon shivered with fear.

He was just carried away by the thought of merit and had forgotten this matter.

Defying Joyful Vajra’s command, the Snake Demon might not die since she is his concubine and still useful.

As for himself, he would most likely be made an example of.

Since Lin Yuan arrived here near the outskirts of Ironback Mountain, he felt somewhat uneasy.

As if something in the unknown was watching him.

Out of vigilance, Lin Yuan instinctively glanced upwards.

Alongside Lin Yuan’s gaze, his willpower spread out.

With the spread of his willpower, Lin Yuan realized that something up there was watching him.

Suddenly, six eyes met.

Lin Yuan saw the Snake Demon and Eagle Demon in the sky.

The Eagle Demon and Snake Demon in the sky also connected with Lin Yuan’s gaze.

”Such sharp perception ability, this kid has spotted us!” the Snake Demon said coldly.

The Eagle Demon felt a bit troubled as well and asked: ”What now?”

According to normal reasoning, they do not dare defy Joyful Vajra’s orders.

But now the situation is different, Lin Yuan found them first; there’s no time to inform Joyful Vajra.

Even if Joyful Vajra asks them, they have a ready explanation.

Plus, if they don’t act now, Lin Yuan might escape!

”We have to make a move!”

”I’ll explain the reason for acting to the master!”

”Letting the kid escape would have worse consequences!” the Snake Demon said grimly.

The Eagle Demon understood the importance, without any hesitation, his wings vibrated, diving towards Lin Yuan’s direction.

The Eagle Demon’s speed was incredibly fast, like a streak of black light, in the blink of an eye, he came close to Lin Yuan.

The Eagle Demon carried a Fangtian halberd, which he swung directly toward Lin Yuan’s head.

The Fangtian halberd cut through the air, accompanied by a piercing sound, Lin Yuan seemed to feel its sharpness.

However, Lin Yuan’s response was incredibly swift as well, and as the Fangtian halberd slashed towards him, he also summoned Zhong Kui’s Demon-Slaying Sword, which met the Fangtian halberd head-on with one stroke.

”Clang!”

Zhong Kui’s Demon-Slaying Sword collided with the Fangtian halberd, sparking energy fluctuations resembling fireworks.

The massive shockwave caused Lin Yuan to stagger backward several steps, while the Eagle Demon flipped in mid-air, mitigating the shockwave.

”Their strength is much higher than that of the Iron-Back Daoist, somewhat difficult to handle!” After a brief exchange, Lin Yuan had a rough understanding of the Eagle Demon’s strength.

At this moment, Lin Yuan’s feelings inevitably became heavy.

This guy is clearly ambushing him, today might not end peacefully.
