Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings

Chapter 442 - 436: If Soft Tactics Fail, Use Force

Lin Yuan, this is an open strategy!

Ten Thousand Mountains are rich in Anti-Avoidance Pearls; as long as he openly carries these pearls out of here, letting the World Honored One Sect see them.

Then, this matter will reach the ears of the World Honored.

By that time, when the immortals of Ten Thousand Mountains say these pearls weren’t given by them, will the World Honored believe them?

By that time, they’d be like yellow mud falling into the trousers — whether it’s not manure, it still is!

Lin Yuan used this move right off the bat, not to mention those immortals of Ten Thousand Mountains.

Elder Bai and Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder were stunned.

After all, right now, these immortals of Ten Thousand Mountains belong to the neutral faction; Elder Bai and Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder don’t want to offend them.

Therefore, Elder Bai initially thought of exchanging benefits to acquire two Anti-Avoidance Pearls.

Elder Bai wanted to use a conciliatory approach, but Lin Yuan didn’t think that way.

From the fact that Ten Thousand Mountains’ immortals closed their doors, Lin Yuan knew that using soft tactics today to acquire Anti-Avoidance Pearls wouldn’t be easy.

First, they hoped to meet these immortals, but it would be very difficult.

Second, even if they met these immortals, acquiring Anti-Avoidance Pearls would require a lot of persuasion.

Lastly, whether they would offer the exchange is uncertain. Even if they did, it would certainly come at a great cost.

It should be known that the plague has now spread to the Real World.

Perhaps, some people have already died due to the plague.

Every minute of delay leads to more deaths.

Lin Yuan doesn’t want to linger with them, so he used a killer move right away.

The fact proves that Lin Yuan’s kill move was very effective.

In a hall somewhere within Ten Thousand Mountains.

The immortals of Ten Thousand Mountains looked at each other, all turning their gaze towards Divine Beast Bai Ze.

The implication being, that the idea to close the doors was yours, now what do you propose?

"Alas!" Divine Beast Bai Ze heavily sighed and said, "Fine, let’s meet them!"

"However, these Anti-Avoidance Pearls must not be given. Angering the World Honored brings no benefit to us."

Lin Yuan’s approach proved very useful; before, they had stayed here so long, with no one paying attention to them.

As soon as he used his killer move, it didn’t take long before a member of the Demon Race came to guide them.

Soon, they were in a grand hall, meeting these immortals of Ten Thousand Mountains.

A group of thousand-year-old demons.

"Brother Bai, what wind blows you all here!" Divine Beast Bai Ze said with a smile.

The situation was urgent; Elder Bai didn’t beat around the bush, directly stating, "We’ve come with a request."

"We know you all have the most Anti-Miasma Pearls, so we’d like to trade for two."

"Rest assured, we won’t take them for free; propose any condition, and we won’t bargain."

In the past, these immortals of Ten Thousand Mountains would surely agree to trade, and then take the opportunity to extort Elder Bai.

They know Elder Bai has lived long and has many treasures.

However, this involves the World Honored; once they trade with Elder Bai, it would offend the World Honored and bring karmic entanglement.

Thus, no matter how great the benefit of the trade, it can’t proceed.

"Brother Bai, to be blunt, we do have many Anti-Avoidance Pearls on hand."

"But you came at a bad time!"

"The youngsters from our tribe went to a miasma-infested place for training, and took all the Anti-Avoidance Pearls."

"When they return, instead of a trade, I’ll personally send you two!" Divine Beast Bai Ze fabricated an excuse.

Upon hearing this, Elder Bai and the others’ faces turned dark.

Bai Ze’s words were clearly a trick, not genuinely meant.

Wait until their tribesmen return, then gift them to Elder Bai?

When will they return? Isn’t it determined by Bai Ze?

By then, the humans in the Real World might be all dead, and these Anti-Avoidance Pearls would be useless.

"Everyone, these words seem to be fooling us!"

"I understand your concerns."

"We came quietly this time, the World Honored knows nothing. Just two Anti-Avoidance Pearls won’t bind so much karma." Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder also spoke.

Yet, Divine Beast Bai Ze still shook his head, saying firmly, "No, no!"

"With the karma tied to the World Honored, even a little — we refuse to be involved at all."

Even so, Elder Bai and Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder continued to plead.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan’s rage flared up.

This group of immortals truly thinks they can bully us!

"Elder Bai, Grand Elder, enough pleading!"

"We fight to the death with the World Honored, while they watch. They are all Tier Two Peak and all have hopes of attaining the Dao."

"When we beat the World Honored, they might seize the fruits just the same."

"In my view, we should find a secluded place here in Ten Thousand Mountains and hide like them."

"Let’s see, when the World Honored succeeds in attaining the Dao and comes to kill us, if they will flatten Ten Thousand Mountains along the way." Lin Yuan said angrily.

"Bang!" Among the immortals, an Ox Demon slammed the table and stood, pointing at Lin Yuan, "Junior, who taught you to speak to elders this way?"

Lin Yuan, emboldened by Elder Bai’s protection, wasn’t afraid, and roared, "Elder, you’re only ahead of me by thousands of years in cultivation, you’re not as brave as the old plowing ox — what kind of elder are you!"

"I think you’re all fools!"

"In the ancestral land, there’s a plethora of humans, and we only want to save the humans in nine cities; asking you for two Anti-Miasma Pearls doesn’t tie much karma."

"If you won’t give, fine, then I’ll destroy these Anti-Avoidance Pearls in my hands, not save the people of the ancestral land, and stay in your hall forever!"

"Let’s see if giving us two Anti-Avoidance Pearls ties more karma than me staying here does."

Undoubtedly, Lin Yuan staying here involves more karma!

Lin Yuan is the mortal enemy of the World Honored; to the immortals of Ten Thousand Mountains, he’s a disaster.

"Brat, are you threatening us?"

"Do you truly believe I dare not kill you?" the Ox Demon raged.

Lin Yuan looked at Elder Bai and asked, "Elder Bai, can you protect me completely?"

At this point, Elder Bai could only continue with Lin Yuan’s rhythm.

"In terms of defense, I am confident!" Elder Bai said confidently.

At the same time, Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder, Golden-Winged Roc, and Black Bear Spirit guarded Lin Yuan, prepared for any Tier Two Powerhouse to make a move on him.

Lin Yuan directly took out the Anti-Avoidance Pearls Elder Bai had gathered for him and, in front of the immortals of Ten Thousand Mountains, "bang" crushed one.

"Now, we need to trade for three Anti-Avoidance Pearls."
