I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night-Chapter 1383 - 724: Subduing the Ancient God

The atmosphere in the arena fell silent.

Lin Yan demonstrated his ten thousand feet golden body, holding the Night Illuminating Divine Sword, already fully alert, prepared to confront this ancient divine spirit in his most glorious form.

No one could have expected that this ancient divine spirit actually collapsed onto the water surface, stirring up waves thousands of feet high, shouting heart-wrenchingly!

"Master, save me!!!"

The Ancient God of Yellow Springs was practically crying his heart out.

Lin Yan remained silent.

Even the golden-red flames on the Phoenix Divine Egg paused.

The blood-colored divine general, into whom Wang He had transformed, had an infinitely complex expression in his eyes.

From the day Lin Yan, as a mere mortal, entered the Netherworld and faced Yin Tianzi directly, he caught the eye of the Ancient God of Yellow Springs.

However, in the eyes of the Ancient God of Yellow Springs, this mortal, although he performed miracles, had only borrowed the means of Thunder Ancestor.

In the long years that followed, the human emperor’s master was almost forgotten by the Ancient God of Yellow Springs.

Even when the God of War Emperor Clan under his command occasionally mentioned this human emperor’s master, he never paid him any heed.

Until decades ago, when the Human Race Saint Master appeared once again, rumored to be the former first human emperor’s master.

At that time, the Ancient God of Yellow Springs began to reevaluate this "mortal" who had reappeared after so many years.

But over these decades, no matter what grand achievements the Human Race Saint Master accomplished, in the eyes of the Ancient God of Yellow Springs, he was just a junior flexing his muscles in an era where the Emperor Realm had yet to awaken.

In the mountains without tigers, monkeys call themselves kings!

This was the evaluation of the Ancient God of Yellow Springs just now!

Everyone believed this battle was inevitable!

All sides also believed that although the Human Race Saint Master was a prodigy, unique through the ages, he was not enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with this ancient divine spirit.

But no one expected that at this moment, the Ancient God of Yellow Springs would kneel in front of them, crying tearfully.

"..."

Lin Yan opened his heavenly eye, scanning all sides, and began to understand something.

"Back then, those who sealed you here were the former Yin Tianzi."

"As long as Yin Tianzi exists, you will never rise to prominence."

"And now that Yin Tianzi has fallen, no one can undo your seal, and you still cannot rise."

"Today, when I broke the Nine Curves Yellow Springs Array, I used Yin Tianzi’s means."

Lin Yan stood with his hands behind his back and said, "In today’s era, the only one who can save you is me!"

"Master’s eyes are as sharp as torches, perceiving the world and all creatures; truly born a saint, making me immensely admire you."

The Ancient God of Yellow Springs raised his head, his eyes shimmering with the light of desire.

"But you enslaved my people."

Lin Yan said coldly, "Previously, not only did you drive away Shangguan Xuanniao, but when he attacked the Ninth Hall on my orders, you used the water of Yellow Springs to bury them... How do you expect me to take you under my wing?"

"Master, you’ve misunderstood!"

The Ancient God of Yellow Springs exclaimed, "I only observed the changes in the Ninth Hall. If I didn’t intervene, Black Armor... Oh, Shangguan Xuanniao and the others, would certainly have been completely annihilated by the Ninth Hall King Yama to eliminate any future threats! Thus, I used divine power to make the Yellow Springs surge, submerging them..."

"Hmm?"

When Lin Yan heard this, his gaze became stirring.

Then he saw the Ancient God of Yellow Springs slightly part his lips.

A large number of heroic spirits from the Human Clan emerged from his mouth.

The leader, clad in black armor, was none other than Shangguan Xuanniao.

And among them was also someone familiar to Lin Yan, Shi Wen, whom he had appointed as the Yin Soldier Commander of the Cold Ice Little Hell.

Upon further examination, he discovered many familiar faces.

Some were people from the Human Clan he’d seen in the world.

Some were outstanding figures of the Human Clan who had peacefully passed away on the Tribulation Treasure Ship.

These "old acquaintances," whom he thought he’d never see again, were now reappearing before him.

But unfortunately, a large portion were still missing.

After all, when the heroic spirits of the Human Clan raised soldiers to attack the forces of the Ninth Hall and occupy vital locations, losses were inevitable, with heavy casualties.

The Ancient God of Yellow Springs had only saved the last batch of heroic spirits of the Human Clan who faced the Ninth Hall King Yama directly.

Still, this filled Lin Yan’s heart with joy.

"Master, this old fellow is very cunning." Little White Ape whispered, "Logically speaking, if he was merely saving people, he shouldn’t have had such an attitude earlier, and you can see that Wang He was clearly very shocked."

"Wang He has been this old fellow’s capable subordinate for many years. If the Ancient God of Yellow Springs acted earlier intending to save Shangguan Xuanniao and the others, wouldn’t Wang He have known?" Niu Yan hesitated.

"I see that this old fellow only hid these heroic spirits of the Human Clan within himself." Little Liu whispered, "If our master didn’t have the ability to make him submit, I bet these heroic spirits would become his food."

"Now, even if our master’s ability can’t suppress him, he can still save him, so he desires for the master to intervene." Niu Yan said.

"Precisely because of this, he is willing to release these heroic spirits of the Human Clan." Little White Ape said.

"This fellow is really sly and cunning." Little Liu sighed.

"He hasn’t released these heroic spirits of the Human Clan yet." Niu Yan said gravely, getting directly to the point.

"On the surface, he is submitting, but he actually wants to haggle with our master." Little White Ape said angrily.

"..."

Lin Yan’s expression was calm as he looked at this Ancient God of Yellow Springs from afar.

He stepped forward slowly and said, "If you wish to bargain with me, it depends on the level of sincerity you offer."

As his voice fell, Lin Yan’s sword pointed to the top of the Ancient God of Yellow Springs’ head, saying, "Release them."

"..."

The Ancient God of Yellow Springs fell silent.

He released these heroic spirits of the Human Clan but didn’t let them return to the side of the Human Race Saint Master.
