Chapter 5126: cost
"Senior should understand what I said, right?"
Zhang Yifeng's face was full of magnanimity, and he took a deep look at the powerful demon next to him who had survived for an unknown length of time.
"Hahaha, interesting. Your theory is really interesting."
"According to your opinion, this is indeed the case."
"And didn't you make a deal with that guy? Since you have cleared the door for him, it is normal to take these."
"But I'm curious. According to your thinking, kid, it's not a big deal if you accept gifts from those immortals."
"After all, your hardships along the way were not a lie."
After thinking for a long time, the demon strongman in the cracks in the stone suddenly burst out laughing, as if he liked Zhang Yifeng's point of view very much.
But the question he asked next made Zhang Yifeng stunned.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Yifeng gave his own answer, which was also an answer from his heart.
"In the final analysis, I feel that the rewards are not proportional to the efforts."
“If you want something in return, you must pay the price.”
"If you can get something that is beneficial to you without paying any price, that is not called mutual aid and reciprocity, but a bandit."
Zhang Yifeng looked at him deeply and replied in a deep voice.
"Smart, you are so smart."
"I can see that your boy must have more demon blood, otherwise I would have been deceived long ago."
The demon strongman retracted his hand that was tightly grasping Zhang Yifeng's wrist, and then the sound of applause came from the cracks in the stone.
"Okay, kid, you can go. You can go wherever you want to go next. Just don't bother me."
The voice of the strong demon who retracted his palm came from the cracks in the stone, and seemed a little distant when it fell into Zhang Yifeng's ears.
"Wait a minute, senior, didn't you say that you don't want me to enter the Ten Thousand Demon Cave to find the devil?"
Zhang Yifeng's expression paused, and he was a little confused as to what this strong man from the demon clan was going to do when he stopped him.
Could it be that you really just want to say a few words to him and let yourself accompany him to relieve his boredom?
Furthermore, the other party had clearly warned him not to go deep into the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons, lest he fall into the hands of the demon and cause immeasurable consequences.
Now he was asked to do whatever he was supposed to do. This scene with no preface and follow-up words really made Zhang Yifeng a little confused.
"Everything I told you is true, but from the looks of it, you know these things better than I do. Why am I stopping you from doing anything?"
"If you have to ask me something, I can only tell you that the solution to this disaster lies in what you and I just said."
"Now, hurry up and help those two brats, they are probably about to be beaten to death."
The last voice of the powerful demon fell into Zhang Yifeng's ears. Immediately, Zhang Yifeng saw that the stone cracks around him slowly closed, with no sign that they had ever been opened.
"That's all, let's take one step at a time."
Seeing that the powerful demon clan completely cut off communication with him, Zhang Yifeng simply restrained his thoughts.
At the same time, he also kept in mind what the other party told him before leaving.
He still can't see what this sentence means, but maybe at some point in the future, he will suddenly have an epiphany.
In addition, the only thing that was clear about what the other party said before leaving was that the Human Emperor and the Emperor's grandson were almost unable to hold on anymore.
Zhang Yifeng's heart froze when he thought of this, and the demonic energy around him exploded, heading all the way to the depths of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave.
Shortly after Zhang Yifeng left, the previously closed stone cracks opened again.
Only this time, the crack opened wider than before, and then a figure walked out of it.
He was dressed in pure black armor and looked like an unruly young man with blood-red eyes.
"What an interesting guy. No wonder he became the one he was destined to be."
"I just didn't expect that this destined person would turn out to be a boy who is both an immortal and a demon."
The unruly young man with blood-red eyes looked at the direction where Zhang Yifeng disappeared with interest and murmured to himself.
"Chi, you may have gone too far talking to him."
"You almost had to tell him how to deal with that boy Guna."
At the same time, another figure also appeared out of thin air next to the unruly young man named Chi.
The person who came was dressed in black robes, with one red and one black eye under the mask. It was the nothingness that had disappeared without a trace since Gu Xiao was destroyed.
"What's the point? You know all this a long time ago, so you can hear it so clearly."
"If that kid doesn't have a bright mind, he may die at Gu's hands and he doesn't know how to break this deadlock."
Chi picked his ears and looked at the nothingness around him with disdain.
"It's you, I thought you were going to die this time, but I didn't expect you could come back alive."
"A dog's life is really big enough."
Chi chuckled lightly and patted the shoulder of Xue beside him.
"snort!"
Xu Wu's eyes flashed when he heard the sound, and he turned his head to look at the palm on his shoulder. He thought about it for a long time but did not break away.
"The future direction of this Immortal Tomb depends on them."
"But this kid is really smart, should I say it or not. He knows not to accept gifts from strangers casually."
"Otherwise, that kid will be in trouble. After receiving the immortal energy from those immortal clans, he may have to be a tombkeeper in this immortal tomb for the rest of his life."
Chi clicked his tongue and finally revealed this big secret.
Only people from the immortal and demon sides know about this matter. Once he accepts the remaining immortal energy of those immortal clans, Zhang Yifeng will indeed break through and become the immortal emperor.
But the price that needs to be paid is to stay in this dark immortal tomb for the rest of his life, replacing the immortals as the tombkeepers guarding the demons.
Those immortals can take this opportunity to put their remaining souls into reincarnation to usher in new life.
But fortunately, Zhang Yifeng was smart enough and knew not to trust others easily, so he avoided this invisible crisis.
"Just thinking about it now, it wouldn't be a bad thing if such an interesting boy stayed in this fairy tomb."
"Oops, I actually have some regrets now."
Chi took a breath, as if he had reacted, and hammered his chest with a regretful expression.
"Okay, stop acting, my king of demons."
"It's time for us to return to sleep."
Xuewu looked at his appearance, and the lips under the mask finally curved slightly.
"Oh, I finally woke up and it's time to sleep again."
Chi waved his hand, then stretched out his hand for a moment, opened the crack in the stone beside him, and stepped into it.
Seeing this, Xuxu followed suit. The two of them lay in the small stone cave and slowly closed their eyes.
