Chapter 12654
The emperor could not accept this result and gritted his teeth: "How can my ten generations of imperial power be defeated by a nobody like me!"
Lin Yi looked at him calmly: "Why don't you try going back on your word?"
To be honest, he was really looking forward to it.
The consequences of defying the will of Heaven are obvious. What Lin Yi is more curious about is whether the other party will offer any additional preferential treatment under the protection of the Ten Emperors' Edict.
"I want to raise the bet!"
A flash of ferocity crossed the Emperor's face, and his eyes turned bloodshot: "I want to settle this with one final round!"
Lin Yi raised an eyebrow: "Are you trying to cheat me?"
Anyone else would not have the right to cheat in the face of the will of Heaven, but the imperial edict is different.
"I said I wasn't cheating, I was raising the stakes!"
Di Zhao stared at Lin Yi with a ferocious expression, looking like he wanted to devour him: "I'm asking you if you dare to agree?"
Lin Yi shook his head slightly: "I've already won two out of three games, why should I take any more risks? Give me a reason first."
"I'll wager the lineage of the Emperor Saint with you!"
At this moment, the emperor's edict resembled that of a gambler who had lost everything.
For him, nothing else matters right now; all he wants is to win back his losses, and he's willing to risk everything for it!
Lin Yi looked at him with amusement: "Do you have the qualifications?"
The emperor was momentarily speechless.
He has nominally succeeded to the position of Emperor Saint, and is now the undisputed leader of the Emperor Saint lineage. However, he does not control many aspects of the Emperor Saint lineage.
There are many things that the Emperor Saint lineage cannot decide on.
Lin Yi said calmly, "You should just wash up and go to bed."
He then proceeded to use the will of Heaven to collect the spoils of his divine battle.
Regardless of the circumstances, acquiring one mid-level divine item and two high-level divine items in one go is undoubtedly a great success.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it was a huge success.
"Wait a minute!"
A familiar voice suddenly cut in.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Lin Yi's eyes lit up slightly; it was a familiar face.
Emperor Qingfan.
This is a chaotic space created by the will of Heaven specifically for the battle of divine equipment; theoretically, no outsider can enter.
The fact that Di Qingfan was able to intervene shows that he is no ordinary person.
That being said, among the top experts in Tianjun, there are not many people who can attract Lin Yi's special attention, and even fewer who he cannot understand.
Di Qingfan is one of them.
Judging solely from his apparent strength, this person is merely a five-zhang-tall Dharma Aspect expert, far from posing a threat to me.
But Lin Yi had a vague intuition that this person was a man of great hidden talent and was not simple at all.
Di Qingfan approached Di Zhao and said solemnly, "Our entire lineage of Emperor Sheng will obey Your Majesty's orders at all costs!"
The emperor's edict was immediately moved.
His will as the contemporary Emperor Saint cannot represent the collective will of the Emperor Saint lineage, but since Di Qingfan dared to say this, he must have gained the full recognition of the Emperor Saint lineage!
The emperor's Adam's apple bobbed, and he finally uttered a single, forceful word: "Good!"
To be honest, his feelings toward his third senior brother, Di Qingfan, were extremely complicated.
He was able to sit in the position of Emperor, and Di Qingfan deserves great credit for this. But precisely because of this, he is extremely wary of Di Qingfan.
Great kindness can turn into great enmity.
Di Qingfan's influence within the Di Sheng lineage is so great that who can guarantee that such a person will always support him?
But at least for this moment, he was incredibly grateful.
The emperor turned to Lin Yi and asked, "Do you dare to accept?"
Lin Yi smiled and said, "Let's get past the test of Heaven's will first."
"You really think I have no way out?"
The emperor coldly presented the Ten Emperors' Edicts.
Normally, a ten-emperor edict can only be used once, but that doesn't mean it can't be rewritten midway.
However, as the party that actively modifies the rules, the demands of the Heavenly Will are inevitably more stringent.
as predicted.
The imperial edict was revised several times but all to no avail. It was only after the emperor made repeated concessions and set the rules so that his side would bet the entire lineage of the Holy Emperor, and Lin Yi would not need to offer any additional bargaining chips, that he finally gained the approval of the will of Heaven.
"Accept or not?"
Now the initiative has fallen into Lin Yi's hands.
There are two choices: either take the three powerful items and leave, or accept the gamble of the final round to determine the winner.
Seeing that Lin Yi was hesitant to make a decision, the Emperor's heart was in his throat.
This was the last remedy he could make.
If Lin Yi doesn't take the bait, he'll be completely at a loss.
Even if he is still the current Emperor Saint, one can imagine what kind of awkward situation an Emperor Saint who has lost his ancestral treasured divine equipment will be in in the future.
The Emperor couldn't help but provoke him: "I've staked the entire lineage of the Emperor Saint on this, so I naturally have absolute confidence. If you're scared, that's understandable, but please remember this: from now on, avoid me when you see me!"
"Are you trying to provoke me?"
Lin Yi looked at him with amusement.
The emperor sneered, "Just tell me if you dare or not."
Lin Yi immediately nodded: "Okay."
"it is good!"
The emperor was overjoyed and, fearing that Lin Yi might change his mind, immediately announced, "Then let's begin!"
The will of Heaven descended, and both sides unleashed their ultimate divine equipment.
"Fleeting Fireflies, Advanced Divine Gear, Overall Effect Rating: 33,500 points."
Lin Yi was quite surprised to see the seven thin needles in front of the other person.
These seven thin needles are so unremarkable, yet the Heavenly Dao's will gave them a score far higher than that of the Phoenix Cry Blade!
No wonder the Emperor was so confident, willing to stake the entire lineage of the Holy Emperor.
With such an ace in hand, you can easily crush any opponent, no matter what kind of powerful equipment they have.
After all, even genuine high-level divine equipment is very likely to be far inferior to it.
The emperor coldly glanced at the divine attire in front of Lin Yi.
This time, they clearly learned their lesson and didn't rush to open the champagne prematurely.
However, the arrogance in his eyes could not be concealed.
"An astrological chart?"
The emperor was suspicious; just like the Eight Gates Heavenly Lock from before, it was something he couldn't understand.
"They still haven't taken out the Mind-Stabilizing Demon-Subduing Pestle. Could this be some kind of pseudo-immortal divine equipment?"
The emperor felt a sudden jolt at this thought, but he quickly suppressed the possibility.
The other party is just a grassroots cultivator. It's already incredibly lucky that he managed to get his hands on an Eight Gates Heavenly Lock. How could he possibly produce another one?
If that were the case, he, the Emperor Saint lineage who ruled Tianjun in this lifetime, might as well buy a block of tofu and smash his head against it and die.
The accumulated wisdom of ten generations of emperors and sages is still no match for that of a commoner.
What a joke!
The will of Heaven then gave its evaluation.
"Wuhou Star Chart, Immortal Divine Gear, Overall Effect Rating: 990,000 points."
The Emperor's edict: "..."
This time, not only was he numb, but Di Qingfan, who was standing next to him, also went numb.
The Eight Gates Heavenly Lock had just produced a score of 136,000, which was already quite extraordinary. But now, it has produced a score of 990,000!
