Godslayer: I, the agent of the God of Drama, am here to begin the show.

However, the Ghost-Faced King and the Nanda Snake Demon were reluctant to take the stage.

Could it be... that our actions just now angered the master?!

A tonic!

"Master! Our loyalty to you is as clear as the sun and the moon!"

Our admiration for you is as boundless as a surging river!

The two beasts spoke in unison.

Lin Ze: "???"

"What the hell did you guys learn these words from?"

"Old Zhao, are these the soldiers you've brought?"

Zhao Kongcheng nodded. "Okay."

"I noticed they couldn't even speak properly, they just kept yelling, so I got them some books so they could learn something."

"To be honest, she has a pretty strong learning ability."

Seeing the significant improvement in the two men's educational level, Zhao Kongcheng proudly raised his head.

Lin Ze chuckled softly, also quite curious about it.

"Come on, let me see what other words you've learned."

"These are all part of the cultural heritage of the Great Xia Dynasty, and we should learn from them."

"Let me show you."

Ghost-Faced King was the first to step forward.

As a senior, you should show your skills first!

Then, the Ghost-Faced King spoke in his distinctive voice,

"Learning without thinking is futile."

Hmm~ It's written in classical Chinese.

"It is blissful not to think or learn."

Hmm? Wait a minute...

After the Ghost-Faced King finished speaking, the snake demon Nanda beside him was not to be outdone.

"If the King of Hell wants me to die at midnight, I'll slit my throat at 2 AM!"

"Knowing there are tigers in the mountains, don't go to the mountains you know are dangerous."

Then, the two beasts began to compete to show off.

"I'm not completely without options; I still have one path: death!"

"Those who don't listen to the elders will have nothing to do!"

"If friends come from afar, though they are far away, they shall be punished!"

"......"

Just as they were about to continue, Lin Ze quickly stopped them.

"Stop, stop, stop!"

"Where the hell did you watch all this?"

"Old Zhao, could you let them read some serious books?"

Watching the two beasts' performance, Lin Ze even began to doubt whether it was the right thing to give Lao Zhao some of the audience seating.

However, Lao Zhao disagreed.

"Hmm...maybe they haven't gotten used to it yet."

"It will be fine in a while."

Lin Ze pondered for a moment, then said to the two beasts,

"You can write down the last sentence."

There's nothing wrong with that statement.

"If friends come from afar, though they are far away, they shall be punished!"

Zhao Kongcheng: "???"

"You're the one who's being the most indecent!"

"Don't worry about that."

"Alright, let's begin!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ze stretched out his hand and pulled Ghost King and Nanda Snake Demon onto the stage.

This is not a power belonging to the stage, but rather to Lin Ze's [Balance Gravity].

Lin Ze experimented with it and found that it was basically the same as he had imagined.

"Kid, how do you expect us to keep you company?"

"Don't forget, although you are the master here, we have unlimited spiritual power here."

"You can't beat us if you don't use your privileges."

Zhao Kongcheng had previously conducted an experiment, and if he didn't suppress his mental power and used [Eliminating Life and Flashing Moon] with all his might, the effect would be incredibly strong!

It was hundreds of times stronger than the magic spell he used back then!

If Lin Ze wanted to challenge them, he wouldn't need anyone else.

Zhao Kongcheng could kill Lin Ze with a single strike, provided Lin Ze doesn't intervene.

Lin Ze naturally wouldn't let them use their full strength.

"I just acquired a Forbidden Ruins, and I'd like to practice with you guys."

"Let me make this clear first: this forbidden realm is extremely powerful, and it is precisely because of this that I will lose my mind."

"Be careful."

"Also, you cannot use mental power exceeding the Pool Realm level."

Lin Ze had given them instructions beforehand.

They can't just kill me the moment I transform!

Zhao Kongcheng patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, kid!"

"You were the one torturing me back at the base; this time, I'm going to torment you properly!"

Seeing Zhao Kongcheng's confidence with his two beasts, Lin Ze felt relieved.

He immediately used [Black King Annihilation].

In an instant, Lin Ze felt as if his consciousness had fallen into an endless void.

This feeling is really unpleasant.

However, at that moment, a large hand suddenly reached into the void and pulled Lin Ze out.

He even gave the middle finger to the void when he came out.

Lin Ze's consciousness returned to the stage.

Only then did he realize that nothing could hurt him on stage.

Even things like [Black King Annihilation], which can erode a person's will, are not allowed.

In stage terms, this is called an "actor protection mechanism".

It can protect actors from harm and also gives them the ability to control the audience.

Unlike the stage for some poor souls, wouldn't you say?

Realizing this, Lin Ze canceled the stage's protective mechanism.

However, he could still feel the stage protecting him.

If we say that the stage initially provided Lin Ze with an airtight protective shield...

Now, this protective shield is reduced to protect Lin Ze's heart, brain, and a series of other vital organs.

In short, the stage has always insisted on protecting Lin Ze's safety.

Afterwards, Lin Ze used [Black King Annihilation] again to cancel the protection, and then he felt his consciousness return to the void.

However, this time the feeling wasn't as strong.

I don't know if it's because of that middle finger.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Ze's body also began to change.

His handsome skin gradually turned brownish-brown, and two devil-like horns grew on his head.

Even her jet-black hair turned white and grew longer.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Kongcheng exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap? It can transform?"

"Let me give it a try!"

After saying that, Zhao Kongcheng casually unleashed a crescent-shaped sword aura.

Just as the sword energy was about to strike Lin Ze, he simply raised his hand to block it, and the attack vanished without a trace.

Not only did it not harm Lin Ze, but the attack didn't even leave a scratch on him.

It was this attack that drew Lin Ze's attention to the human-and-beast combination on the side of the stage.

Their nightmare began from there.

Lin Ze: "Hehehe, hehehe!"
