Infernal Artist

"Choose-"

"Death, or submission."

inside the room.

Liu Ping sat at the table and said expressionlessly.

Paused for a few breaths.

Weird people came forward one after another and stood motionless on both sides of his chair.

"Ah."

Liu Ping let out a chuckle.

The weirdos immediately knelt down on one knee towards him, bowing their heads in silence.

It's like a silent ritual.

Between "die immediately" and "die after encountering the Dark Enforcer", the nightmare creatures chose the latter.

Besides——

What if I win?

The Nightmare Summoner is tasked with destroying the Divine Pillar.

It has proven itself powerful.

If you win——

Your followers will naturally benefit greatly.

"Pack up, I'm leaving." Liu Ping said.

The words fell.

The heads on the table disappeared immediately, and the blood stains were wiped away.

Those nightmare creatures turned into cards one after another and fell into Liu Ping's hands.

He stood up, opened the door and walked out of the room.

The corridor was empty, no one was in sight.

As Liu Ping walked, he asked silently: "Where are the other nightmare monsters?"

A line of small words appeared in front of his eyes:

"The Nightmare Underground Palace has absorbed a group of quite powerful weirdos. They seemed to have been prepared for it. They found each other as soon as they entered. They are working together to destroy the underground palace and want to escape."

"Do they have hope?" Liu Ping asked.

"No, the Dark Enforcer is on his way."

"good chance."

Liu Ping looked at his own logo in the void: No. 31 in the inner world.

"Send me to the 30th ranked nightmare monster," he said.

"It's about to be transferred."

"three,"

"two,"

"one."

Swish——

Liu Ping disappeared from the spot and reappeared somewhere in the nightmare underground palace.

Lying on the wall not far opposite him was a carapace monster covered in psychedelic patterns.

"Nightmare Summoner?" the monster said warily.

"It's me." Liu Ping said.

"What are you here for?"

"I'm going to deal with the Dark Enforcer, are you willing to be my helper?"

"Just you?"

"I am already the thirty-first in the world."

"But I am the thirtieth in this world, why should I obey your orders?"

"...die."

The two disappeared from the place at the same time, and appeared in a completely blank world at the same time.

A ranking life and death battle begins again.

The monster jumped into the air and shouted: "Nightmare Armor, come on!"

More than a dozen pieces of armor emerged from the void and clattered onto its body.

It already had a thick carapace, and with this heavy armor on its body, its defense power suddenly exploded.

"How about it? Hahaha, even if I stand there and let you hit me, you can't hit me!"

The monster laughed wildly.

Liu Ping lowered his head, picked through a handful of nightmare cards in his hand, and threw out a few at random.

A series of soft sounds.

Only five nightmare native monsters appeared in the venue.

The monster saw this posture and said contemptuously:

"You dare to call someone? Huh! Do you think I don't have one?"

It took out a card and said loudly: "Come on, my top-ranked brothers! Come to fight in a group!"

Throw the card——

The wind blows.

The card flew back unsteadily and fell into its hands again.

Two lines of small words appeared in the void:

"The Nightmare Summoner shoulders the mission of a great being. If you want to kill him in a group fight, you are going against the great being."

"you will die."

The monster stared blankly at these two lines of small words for a while, then suddenly shouted loudly:

"This is wrong. He can have helpers, why can't I?"

Another line of small words appeared in the void:

"Sorry, this is a rule imposed by the other party's 'mission'."

The monster's expression kept changing, and he glanced at the opposite side.

Liu Ping still lowered his head and murmured in a low voice: "Five of them beating one is indeed a bit bullying, and I can't bear to see it..."

He pulled out two more nightmare cards from his hand and threw them forward——

Bang bang!

Amidst the two soft sounds, a ferocious figure appeared.

Now.

The number of opponents surrounding the nightmare monster increased to seven.

Liu Ping nodded with satisfaction and said, "I can't bear to watch it for too long - adding two more should be able to kill it quickly."

A cold wind blew.

The nightmare monster on the opposite side has completely frozen.

until--

"Don't worry, we promise it will be soon." The two-headed soul-eater said easily.

After hearing the words, the nightmare monster suddenly shuddered, sensing some impending ominousness.

Between the lightning and flint——

"Wait! I surrender! It's not enough for me to surrender!"

This nightmare monster, ranked thirty in the world, roared.

Seven opponents stopped.

They looked back at Liu Ping, who was standing at the back.

Liu Ping said solemnly: "Once you say surrender, there will be no turning back. Are you sure?"

"OK! OK!" The nightmare monster nodded repeatedly.

Isn't this nonsense? If I wasn't sure, I would be beaten to death on the spot. Am I not that afraid of death?

Liu Ping said: "I heard that you still have a few brothers who are ranked high?"

The nightmare monster smiled and said, "Yes, we are all good brothers. We have participated in many wars of destruction together."

"Come on, let's go talk to your brothers."

Liu Ping snapped his fingers.

In front of his eyes, lines of small characters floated:

"You defeated your opponent."

"Your world ranking has risen one place, current ranking:"

"Thirtyth."

…

Nightmare underground palace.

In a wide square.

Hundreds of heads were stacked together to form a bloody throne.

A dark monster sat on a throne, holding a head, as if deep in thought.

"Boring..."

It threw the head casually on the ground.

The head slowly sank into the ground and began to provide nutrients for the nightmare underground palace.

The pitch-black color all over this monster's body seemed to have substance, and it was like a flowing stream of darkness that was constantly squirming on its surface.

"Sequence." The monster said lazily.

"I am here, the respected Dark Enforcer." The little girl's voice sounded.

"What are you doing? Let so many weirdos enter at once. You must know that the card of this nightmare underground palace has not yet evolved. If you don't control the number of people, it will cause damage to the underground palace." The monster said.

"I know, I must pay attention to the number of people next time." The little girl said.

The monster named Dark Executor was silent for a few breaths, then suddenly reached out and grabbed the void.

The little girl was immediately grabbed out of the void by it.

The dark executor's sharp claws pinched the little girl's neck and asked fiercely:

"Did you do it on purpose?"

The spikes on its hands kept piercing the little girl's skin, causing blood to slowly flow down her snow-white neck.

Tick ​​tock. Tick ​​tock.

Blood dripped on the heads of those dead people, making a gentle crashing sound.

The little girl's eyes maintained a look of confusion, and she said in an emotionless tone:

"The current increasing number of people meets the evolutionary requirements of the underground palace."

"Currently, we don't need the top-ranked Dark Enforcer to take action. We only need the top twenty Nightmare Hunters to deal with it."

"The underground palace will not be damaged, but will begin to evolve due to the absorption of nutrients."

The hands of the dark executor gradually tightened, and there was murderous intent in his crimson eyes.

"You still dare to quibble? My divination ability echoes destiny, and I have already sensed your restlessness."

It stood up from the throne, thought for a few breaths, and said with a smile: "Forget it, I will kill you, let the messenger sacrifice your soul, and summon the next card to come and destroy the world."

The words fell.

The surrounding fog began to billow endlessly.

The spikes embodied by the mist on the little girl's back began to move, as if they were going to completely penetrate the little girl's body at any time.

suddenly.

A person appeared in the corridor a few hundred meters away.

Liu Ping.

He looked at the scene in front of him expressionlessly and said:

"If you want to kill her, give her to me. I need to complete the living sacrifice before I can call the next card of the Pillar of Destruction."

——The power of strangeness, deception!

Lines of burning small characters suddenly jumped out:

"The current enemy has awakened his awareness of destiny and is extremely difficult to deceive."

"If you want to complete this deception, you must use all your strange powers. Are you willing to pay?"

"Pay!" Liu Ping said immediately.

The next moment.

The spikes that were about to pierce the little girl's body stopped.

The dark executor looked at Liu Ping and smiled:

"Unexpectedly, you have become the second-ranked existence."

Liu Ping said: "After the world is destroyed, I will follow that great existence. In order to gain a better status, I must improve my strength quickly."

"You are very honest." The Dark Enforcer said.

"You and I both need status. Only a higher status can help us become stronger." Liu Ping said.

——"The existence that is native to nightmares is extremely eager to obtain souls, and is also eager to improve its status in the nightmare sequence."

This was the first secret the little girl told herself.

The dark executor listened, nodded silently, and said: "I am very curious. You have defeated so many opponents. Have you ever thought about defeating me?"

"No." Liu Ping said.

"Why?"

"Because I have sensed the powerful aura on your body. The existences ranked second to tenth combined cannot defeat you."

"You are quite sensible," the dark executor said with satisfaction, "but I also need your mission very much, which will allow me to replace you and become the right-hand man who follows the great existence."

It slowly turned its head and said to the little girl, "I want to challenge him."

The little girl's eyes fell on Liu Ping.

Liu Ping smiled and said, "Let's arrange it."

The little girl said: "All the strong men ranked second to tenth combined are no match for him. Are you sure you want to fight?"

"Fight." Liu Ping said.

The little girl said: "Then, the battle begins."

The whole world suddenly changed and turned into a completely blank space.

The dark executor raised his hand and was about to cut off the little girl's neck, when he suddenly remembered Liu Ping's words——

"If you want to kill her, give her to me. I need to complete the living sacrifice before I can call the next card of the Pillar of Destruction."

The Dark Enforcer paused, then raised his hand and threw the little girl out.

"I will become the envoy later and then kill you."

It said casually, its momentum suddenly dispersed, and it roared:

"Nightmare Summoner, now is your time to die, hand over your mission!"

Liu Ping remained unmoved.

He observed the majestic aura of the dark executor and the natural nightmare runes looming in the void.

"It's really amazing," he said in an appreciative tone, "Nine strong men from second to tenth combined can't beat you -"

Nightmare cards appeared in his hand one after another.

He raised his hand and threw the thick stack of cards into the air, letting them flutter endlessly in the blank world.

"But I have all the top thirty-one nightmares here."

The words fell.

Intense soft sounds came and went.

One after another, the nightmarers from the other world fell gently to the ground.

They stood on both sides of Liu Ping, bowing their heads slightly to show respect for Liu Ping.
