C1312 Seed
After obtaining this information, Qin Chuan frowned. Ten minutes didn't seem to be a long time. However, when experts fought, especially when top experts fought, the outcome would usually be decided in an instant. It could even be said that life and death were determined.
With the suppression effect of the demigod's power on immortal energy, ten minutes was roughly enough for Caesina to kill a stack of Tribulation Passing Stage cultivators. Under such circumstances, Tribulation Passing Stage cultivators could not be called supreme existences. Because in the eyes of Demigods, even if they weren't ants, they were at most just cats and dogs.
Just thinking about facing Caesina gave Qin Chuan a headache.
From what the hollow spirit said, it wasn't hard for Qin Chuan to tell that the hollow spirit hoped to be protected by him.
However, this was a little too difficult for Qin Chuan. Although he was stronger than ordinary Tribulation Transcenders, he was still slightly weaker than a demigod.
When the hollow spirit saw the troubled expression on Qin Chuan's face, he asked, "You don't think you are a match for Caesina, do you?"
When Qin Chuan heard the Ethereal's words, he smiled bitterly and nodded. "Senior, to tell you the truth, I just received a blow from the Demon Emperor not long ago. I almost died. Although Caesina is only a Demigod, I don't think I am a match for him."
Upon hearing Qin Chuan's words, the Ethereal suddenly said, "I remember that I still have a question that I haven't answered the last time I woke up."
Qin Chuan's expression changed slightly when he heard this. He said, "Senior, do you want to use the answer to this question as an exchange for me to protect you?"
The hollow spirit shook his head and said, "I don't mean that. I can understand your difficulties and tell you about Caesina. I just hope that you will be more careful."
Hearing the hollow spirit's answer, Qin Chuan's expression became somewhat awkward. He said with some shame, "It's me who judged the heart of a gentleman with a petty heart. Sorry."
Regardless of whether the hollow spirit's words were sincere or fake, it had already expressed its attitude. However, Qin Chuan obviously didn't want to protect the hollow spirit. It seemed that he was being too selfish.
When he realized this, Qin Chuan's expression couldn't help but become somewhat ugly. He discovered that he seemed to have lost all his courage after suffering the attack of the Devil Emperor. He had become much more cautious in his actions, whether it was when he was dealing with the internal division of the endless alliance army. And now, when faced with the Ethereal's covert request, he was begging for stability. He no longer had the confidence and power he had in the past.
This wasn't a good thing!
Qin Chuan had been able to reach his current state by relying on all kinds of fortuitous encounters. More because he's young and confident. He had the ability to do things that others wouldn't dare to do. It was also because of this that he was able to obtain all kinds of benefits that others could not obtain.
And now?
When he first advanced to the Tribulation Passing stage, he was also high-spirited. However, ever since he was lucky enough to escape from the Demon Emperor's attack, everything seemed to have changed.
"Could it be that the Demon Emperor's power had an invisible effect on me?"
Qin Chuan frowned slightly. The Heavenly Water Pool could wash away the power of the evil laws, but it could not wash away the influence of the evil laws on him!
This was the only explanation that Qin Chuan could think of.
After thinking about this, Qin Chuan took a deep breath and asked the hollow spirit, "Senior, will the power of the highest existence have any effect on the soul of those who are at a lower realm?"
The hollow spirit seemed to have thought of something and asked Qin Chuan, "Do you think that the attack of the Devil Emperor has affected your soul?"
Qin Chuan nodded and said, "I do have such a guess."
The hollow spirit pondered for a moment before replying, "Actually, this is a normal thing. The reason why a supreme existence is called a god is because of this. It's because the influence of God is great, even everywhere. The Demon Emperor controls the evil laws. As long as there is an evil existence in this world... His influence will exist. Maybe when you are attacked by the Demon Emperor... He has already planted a seed in your heart. It is this seed that has affected you."
Upon hearing the Ethereal's words, Qin Chuan frowned and asked, "How can I discover this seed?"
"Let me help you take a look. Let go of your soul and allow my power to enter your body."
Although the hollow spirit's realm had fallen and it could barely be considered a demigod, it was still fine to help Qin Chuan check the abnormal condition of his body.
When Qin Chuan let go of his soul and didn't set up any defense... The Ethereal raised his hand and lightly tapped on Qin Chuan's body. A void force entered Qin Chuan's body. It flowed through Qin Chuan's body, and when the void force reached his abdomen... A black light dot suddenly appeared and shattered the void force.
This sudden change made Qin Chuan's facial expression turn extremely ugly. Xu Ling was right. The Devil Emperor had planted a seed in his body!
The hollow spirit pondered for a moment, then said to Qin Chuan, "This is indeed a seed that can only be planted by gods. This seed will subtly affect you, causing you to unconsciously feel fear when facing evil."
A fear when facing evil?
Hearing the hollow spirit's explanation, Qin Chuan's face couldn't help but turn ashen. He remembered the decision he made when facing the internal division of the endless alliance. He didn't suppress any objections. He decisively made the decision to destroy the entire Evil Alliance. Instead, he decided to take care of the expedition army of Void Empire first. He temporarily let the Devil Race and Worm Clan go. At that time, it seemed like Qin Chuan was worried about the interference of the Devil Emperor and the Insect Mother. But now that he thought about it, wasn't this a sign of his fear of evil?
Just now, when faced with the threat of Caesina and the evil, he also chose to retreat out of fear!
In the past, when he was still in the synthetic stage, facing the phantom of the Demon King... He did not retreat. In the face of Fo'Oro, he fought with his life on the line. When he destroyed the Void Empire's teleportation channel, he faced Fedrick directly. In the past, each time he experienced something like this, he would always use the weak against the strong. He had never thought of retreating when his opponent was below him. And he had never hesitated.
And now, due to the influence of this seed, he had made decisions that were extremely inconsistent with his personality!
If he did not discover the existence of this seed in time and allowed it to continue influencing him, perhaps it would not be long before he would become a coward who did not dare to make any movements when facing evil, a coward!
Just thinking about it made Qin Chuan feel cold all over. A supreme existence was truly terrifying!
Smack!
Qin Chuan slapped his face fiercely. His heart once again felt fear towards evil!
