I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second

Chapter 1094: Chapter 1094: The Cruel Reality

”My father was able to seal you—doesn’t that mean his strength surpassed all of yours?”

For these tens of thousands of years, Luo Bingxin had always believed her father was the No. 1 enforcer of the All Gods Camp, which meant her father’s strength was the greatest in the entire Three Realms and Six Paths.

After hearing the words of the Four Great Corpse Kings today, Luo Bingxin’s worldview was completely overturned.

”Surpassed? Heh, how could that be.”

Yinglong, bearing the highest-tier Dragon Race bloodline, did indeed rank among the very strongest in the camp of All Gods.

But the true strongest—how could they be willing to be driven by another?

In terms of origin, the background of the Four Great Corpse Kings was far more powerful than that of Yinglong; in terms of strength, Wo Zhiqi was much stronger than Yinglong—how could Yinglong possibly defeat them?

Sheer numerical advantage alone could never accomplish that.

After All Gods had roughly seized control over the entire Divine Realm, the Immortal King still was not satisfied.

Since the order of all heavens had been established, then everyone had to abide by it; not a single one could be allowed to slip through.

But there was a gap between the top combat powers of the two sides. To deal with super powerhouses like Wo Zhiqi and the Four Great Corpse Kings, they had no choice but to look for a breakthrough point.

That breakthrough point appeared quickly—that was Blue Star.

When they learned that Enhancers on Blue Star could enhance equipment, granting equipment power far beyond its base attributes and thereby massively boosting the user’s strength, the gods set their sights on Blue Star.

Yinglong was the first beneficiary.

When his full set of equipment was successfully enhanced to +100 Level, Yinglong unlocked many abilities through the equipment that his body did not originally possess. Relying on these abilities and the explosively increased stats, Yinglong was finally able to arm-wrestle with Wo Zhiqi.

With the amplification brought by equipment, plus the advantage of having more people and being able to set up formations more easily, Yinglong gained the possibility of defeating these powerhouses.

After hearing the Drought Demon’s words, Luo Bingxin’s heart was greatly shaken.

So all the merits her father earned for All Gods, defeating so many mighty beings, were not because the Dragon Race’s bloodline was so fearsome, nor because her father’s own combat power was so peerless, but because he relied on so many external things.

In Luo Bingxin’s heart, her father’s towering figure suddenly no longer seemed so tall.

In front of the Golden Scale Pool, silence suddenly descended.

Seeing his young mistress’s dejected expression, Old Xuan felt a bit uneasy inside.

He knew about this.

He had followed Yinglong from very early on. He knew Yinglong’s strength was inferior to those people, and he also knew very clearly why Yinglong later managed to win.

Wasn’t it simply that he got his hands on a full set of Mythical Equipment whose Enhancement Level had been maxed out?

Old Xuan had never planned to tell his young mistress about these things. After all, if he spoke this truth out loud, how much would that damage the old master’s image and face? Old Xuan naturally knew where the equipment left behind by the old master was stored.

From the very beginning, his plan was to wait until the time was ripe, then let his young mistress inherit the old master’s equipment.

What he hadn’t expected was that the Four Great Corpse Kings would take the initiative to bring it up and expose this matter.

”Hey, little niece, I’m not telling you this to belittle that old guy Yinglong. The real reason I’m telling you is to let you know that you still have a way to boost your strength in the short term—and the boost won’t be small.”

Luo Bingxin’s faintly dejected mood instantly vanished.

Increasing her strength—that was, aside from taking revenge, the thing Luo Bingxin desired most.

Her father relying on external power to defeat those former experts was indeed not glorious, but how could she possibly refuse a method of increasing strength? The displeasure in her heart quickly began to dissipate.

”Then where is the equipment my father left behind? With my current strength, I really can’t rely on my father’s equipment to go up against the Immortal King and the All Gods under his command.”

”But even so, I still plan to put those things away first, in case I need them.”

What kind of existence was the Immortal King?

The ruler of the Three Realms and Six Paths.

Luo Bingxin knew full well that in terms of scheming and intellect, she could not compare to the Immortal King.

How could she dare to hope that the Immortal King wouldn’t see through her plans? The sudden emergence of the Four Great Corpse Kings shattered the stalemate between the Dark Rising organization and All Celestial Divine Beings; for the Immortal King, this was tremendously significant.

It allowed the prestige of the Immortal King, which had been on the verge of collapse, to be rebuilt.

Luo Bingxin was certain the Immortal King definitely knew her details, knew about her relationship with the Four Great Corpse Kings.

The fact that he hadn’t yet torn this layer of relationship open, and had even returned her former home planet to her, was not because the Immortal King feared the power of the Four Great Corpse Kings and didn’t dare to rip off the mask.

On the contrary, everything was under his control.

The Immortal King had long since mastered the operation of ”water can carry a boat, but can also overturn it.”

Making full use of Luo Bingxin’s ambition, then eliminating Luo Bingxin right before she lost control—wouldn’t that be nice?

Luo Bingxin knew very well that for now she was only a chess piece. If she wanted to accomplish what she wanted under the Immortal King’s control, she had to look for a variable.

What was a variable? It was the power that exceeded the Immortal King’s expectations at a critical moment, allowing her to break free of his control and reverse the situation.

High-grade Divine Gear that could massively increase her strength—that was the variable.

The Drought Demon wasn’t stupid; she naturally understood what Luo Bingxin meant.

But if you asked where Yinglong’s equipment was stored—she truly didn’t know.

”This is your family’s business; it’s really not appropriate for you to ask me. That guy Yinglong wasn’t familiar with us. His biggest interaction with us was sealing us. Besides that, there was nothing. If you want to ask where the equipment is, I think you can ask your family’s old servant.”

After speaking, the Drought Demon turned her gaze to Old Xuan.

”That pitch-black fellow, you don’t need to hide it. You should be very clear that with your young mistress’s strength, it’ll be very hard to gather a complete set of equipment. That guy Yinglong was extremely protective of his own. The trials he set for his descendants—one can imagine how difficult they would be. Before his descendants reach the height he expected, he would never allow them to take risks.”

”Without exaggeration, given your young mistress’s talent, I’m afraid she won’t be able to obtain that set of equipment in this lifetime.”

Say what you will, but the one who understands you best is always the opponent equal to you.

Those enemies who appreciate one another can even see your intentions from a tiny shift in your gaze. What the Drought Demon said was completely on point.

The Drought Demon’s words were extremely harsh.

Is my strength really that bad?

Luo Bingxin felt more than a little unconvinced inside.

Her Divine Power Level wasn’t exactly low, and besides, the Dragon Race’s lifespan was so long—she definitely had enough time to grow.

Facing his young mistress’s curious gaze, Old Xuan only hesitated for a moment before giving a clear answer.

”Yes, the Drought Demon is right. Judging from your current strength and age, after a comprehensive analysis, the odds are overwhelmingly that you won’t be able to pass the trials the master set within this lifetime. If you want to obtain that set of equipment, relying on the Four Great Corpse Kings really is a pretty good choice. It might very well be your only choice.”𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂
