#1770 - Times have changed!

In the Land of Despair, before the three Hindbrain Hong Trees.

A figure slowly emerged, sitting cross-legged in the void, its ten arms slightly spread, each making a different gesture, but due to most of its body being obscured by mist, its exact appearance was unclear.

"It doesn't matter if you destroy a trace of my faith, but wasting a wisp of my divine sense just to come here and see a madman is really not worth it," the figure muttered, then a golden token slowly appeared in one of its hands, with many mysterious characters engraved on it.

"Hong Lord, I am very disappointed with the sparring partner you arranged for me. He doesn't seem very strong," the figure whispered.

Two or three breaths later, the token trembled slightly, and a voice came from within.

"Don't be deceived by appearances. If you can win against this sparring partner, you will definitely be able to take another step forward. You are the most valued being in my eyes, and you must understand the principle of avoiding arrogance and impetuosity."

"I am not arrogant, I just think that this person is not worthy of being my opponent. If I wanted to, I could have instantly crushed him just now, without even giving him a chance to revive."

"He is a being favored by the Heavenly Dao. Now, even I can't see through everything about him. You should know what that means. I can tell you that I was originally wavering between you and him, but now, I have chosen you. Don't let me down."

The figure chuckled upon hearing this and said, "Don't worry, I know what your goal is... But I still want to add, that Inner World is very important to you, right? Letting this Ji Dongfeng in, won't there be any problems?"

"It doesn't matter, it's just a method I prepared. Moreover, I have made many preparations inside, and he won't be able to cause too much trouble. He will be forced out before long."

"I understand. In that case, I will leave as well."

"Wu Yuntian... One day, I will kill my way back! Ji Dongfeng, you entered that world. I hope you can still come out alive, but if you die inside, it might be your good fortune, so you won't die even more miserably when we really meet in the future."

As soon as the voice fell, the figure disappeared on the spot, and the entire space returned to silence again, as if nothing had happened.

At the same time, Ji Dongfeng passed through the space channel, and when he regained his senses, he found himself back in front of the three Hindbrain Hong Trees. However, unlike before, the trunks of the three Hindbrain Hong Trees were now engraved with many crying faces, and the aura they emitted was also extremely weak, making them look even more gloomy and eerie.

"Ding, entering the Inner World, the 'Auspicious Time, Beautiful Scenery' talent takes effect. In the Inner World, the effects of all treasures are doubled!"

"This is the Inner World?" Ji Dongfeng said in a deep voice, looking around, but he didn't find any other abnormalities.

"Be careful. If the information we obtained before is correct, the Inner World is a world completely composed of negative emotions. These negative emotions are likely to affect your sanity," Ying Long said.

Ji Dongfeng's heart stirred upon hearing this, and he came to the Hindbrain Hong Tree, reaching out his hand to try to touch the trunk of the Hindbrain Hong Tree.

"Buzz..."

In an instant, Ji Dongfeng only felt that he was surrounded by negative emotions, including sadness, anger, inferiority, despair, and so on. Many negative emotions intertwined, and these emotions alone could tear a normal being apart!

However, Ji Dongfeng only felt a little uncomfortable, and this discomfort only lasted for a moment.

"Ding, the Bloodtear Stone takes effect. Negative emotions have been converted into usable energy. This energy can be used at will to improve one's own strength, and it can also be changed at will to attack or defend. This energy can only be used in the Inner World and is a one-time consumable that cannot be used repeatedly."

Listening to the system's prompt, Ji Dongfeng's heart stirred, and he took out the Bloodtear Stone, only to find that the Bloodtear Stone was now flashing with warm light, and all the negative emotions he had just felt were completely absorbed by it.

"Boom!"

Two or three breaths later, two clusters of warm white energy emerged from the Bloodtear Stone. With a thought from Ji Dongfeng, these two clusters of energy floated around him, changing into various forms according to his will.

"Give me an Italian cannon!"

"Give me a Gatling gun!"

"Give me a Dongfeng missile!"

"This is fun! Give me a goddess... cough cough!"

Under Ji Dongfeng's various attempts, this energy kept changing. After a little experimentation, Ji Dongfeng quickly discovered that this change was not just a simple change in appearance, but also a change in its internal structure.

"I just don't know how powerful it is. I can try it after I go out later, hehehe, but since this energy can exist as long as it's not used, then I can collect a wave first," Ji Dongfeng smiled and looked up at the three Hindbrain Hong Trees in front of him.

"Come, come, let me see how much negative emotion you three Hong Trees have!"

As soon as the voice fell, Ji Dongfeng's figure flickered, and he began to frantically touch the three Hindbrain Hong Trees. At the same time, the Bloodtear Stone trembled frantically, releasing more and more warm white energy.

Half an hour later, Ji Dongfeng took a deep breath. At this moment, he had absorbed all the negative emotions on the three Hindbrain Hong Trees. Although the three Hong Trees still stood in place, the strange marks on their trunks had disappeared, but they still exuded the dark aura unique to the Inner World.

Seeing this, Ji Dongfeng looked up and found that the entire space had been filled with warm white energy.

"Under the influence of the 'Auspicious Time, Beautiful Scenery' talent, the Bloodtear Stone can produce twice the energy of negative emotions. Damn it, I'm thinking about how to use this energy..."

In front of the high wall of the Land of Despair in the Inner World, a shadow wandered back and forth. This shadow was none other than Donghuang Ming, but this Donghuang Ming had blood-red eyes, a dark body, and a hideous face, looking like a completely irrational dark creature, with every part of his body composed of negative emotions.

"Hiss... Kill... I want to kill everything... I want to kill..." The dark Donghuang Ming roared, and the negative aura on his body became even more intense.

"Bang!"

The next moment, the dark Donghuang Ming suddenly heard a loud noise behind him. He turned around and was horrified to find a figure passing through the high wall and rushing straight out!

Donghuang Ming's pupils trembled at the sight, and upon closer inspection, he found that the figure was sitting on a dark throne, with tens of thousands of Gatling guns and tens of thousands of heavy artillery floating behind him. Behind this middle row, there were also hundreds of murderous mechas!

"Dark things, come and meet the hot weapon force king whose era has changed!" Ji Dongfeng laughed loudly, leaning on the throne, with the Grudge Bone Spirit standing beside him, like a guard, looking at Donghuang Ming as if looking at an ant.

"Open fire!"
