Chapter 500: "Whisper of the Inner Devil" Making a Deal with the Devil

"I will." Jiang Qian said firmly.

"..." The seven emotions demon's mouth trembled noticeably, and his brain almost flashed.

The development of things suddenly took an unexpected path... However, there is always room for maneuver.

It looks like this kid is in big trouble... The expression on the Demon of Seven Emotions' face gradually deepened.

"I'm in trouble. I've been dragged into a large-scale destructive ritual organized by the Chaos Organization. I'm facing a master of the six-state conceptual body. I could die at any time."

Having said that, Jiang Qian stopped beating around the bush and explained in detail the reason why he had reentered the dungeon and the danger that was waiting for him in the outside world. He then looked up at the humanoid demon with an unpredictable expression:

"I know that you have the ability to reach the sixth level of conceptual power. You are favoring me because you are attracted by some of my qualities. But I must be frank: your expectations will probably be dashed."

"Ah ha ha ha ha..."

The Seven Emotions Demon laughed loudly with his face raised:

"You little brat, you've been bluffing for so long, aren't you just trying to borrow my power? You guessed it right, the 'Six-State Concept Body' that you worship as a god is indeed not good enough in my eyes!"

Otherwise, with Yun Zhongshuo's strength at the seventh level, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to pay you the price... Jiang Qian's mouth curled up slightly. However, when he thought of the contents of the legendary letter, his expression returned to solemnity.

"If you need the power of the deity, you must be prepared to pay the price."

The Seven Emotions Demon stretched out his arm, which was larger than a normal human arm, and reached directly in front of Jiang Qian: The demon held up his chin with his hand——

"Your body will no longer belong to you, and your soul will become my slave! I will save your life and give you a chance to come out and breathe occasionally, until your fate is fulfilled."

Jiang Qian was pressed against him, with a neither humble nor arrogant expression on his face: "I refuse."

"Oh?" The Demon of Seven Emotions was very interested.

The so-called negotiation is the process of asking for a high price and bargaining.

"My body can lend itself to your breathing occasionally, but I must always be in the dominant position, otherwise neither of us will have an easy life," Jiang Qian said confidently.

"Do you think you are qualified to bargain?" The Seven Emotions Demon laughed.

Jiang Qian pushed away the other person's outstretched hand, cleared his throat, and said, "This is not a bargain, but a friendly reminder to you."

"Haha, interesting."

"After talking to you for so long, it's not hard to see your intentions and difficulties. As the guardian of the super-species rookie trial copy "Whisper of the Heart Devil", you look down on the untrained souls and bodies of those novices, and you are not sure about attacking the Supreme Being like Yun Zhongshuo who has evolved to the peak of the seventh state. Otherwise, there would be no possibility of an equal transaction between you. It can be seen that your hunting choices are actually very narrow."

The Seven Emotions Demon's expression changed instantly, but he did not interrupt him.

So Jiang Qian continued to talk, like a criminal investigator profiling a suspect:
"You are restricted by the clear rules of the super-species world, which means that even a powerful demon like you cannot move freely between the super-species world and reality; but within the scope of the "Whisper of the Heart Demon" copy, you are the real master."

"I guess you long for a broad and real world. The logic is simple. When an individual has mastered all resources, rules, and power in a limited world, then gradually, the fun brought by these resources, rules, and power will gradually disappear, and will be replaced by long-term boredom... Then, you will begin to be eager to try a new and broader world!"

"You look down on the license holders who can travel back and forth between the super-species world and the real world. You can easily kill most of them, but you don't have their ability to easily travel between the two worlds. Maybe this is why you, as a demon, try hard to disguise yourself as a human? You do everything you can to kill the new license holders who come here, as if you are venting your jealousy and dissatisfaction... Sound ironic? No, your sudden surge of malice towards me proves that I am right."

"Until... you come up with a good idea."

Jiang Qian paused here deliberately, as if to give the other party time to cool down his anger:

"This method can not only ensure that your basic foundation does not collapse, but also satisfy your curiosity and control over the wider world. That is - cultivate a high-quality cardholder as a puppet. This puppet has the ability to travel between the two worlds. At the same time, it must have a stable soul that can withstand strong emotional backlash. Only then can it be used by you. You can use his perspective to peek into a brand new world, and use his identity to complete your control over this new world!"

As he spoke, Jiang Qian held the rune black box that was handed to him:
"This high-quality 'puppet' is me. As long as I put this rune black box into the prop locker, you will achieve your goal."

"Wonderful..." The Seven Emotions Demon's emotions became more and more complicated. He stared at Jiang Qian's hand holding the rune black box and said, "But what?"

"But you overlooked the most important issue."

Jiang Qian smiled and continued:
"With a high-quality puppet, and even by exploiting loopholes in the rules to open up a backdoor for props, are you safe? Can a dungeon boss really arbitrarily violate the clear-cut rules of the super-species world? These are crazy just to think about, right? I don't think you are sure either."

"So you first experimented with the demon clone to ensure the safety of the 'backdoor'. Now all that's left is the puppet's reliability. You took great pains to help me clear my memory and repeatedly tested my stability. It wasn't until I read the legendary letter that you found that I was still sane, and then you confirmed this."

The Seven Emotions Demon echoed: "A soul that is not strong enough cannot bear the power of the deity."

"But you are still too greedy. You want to usurp my throne and make me your slave. This is the most unwise thing to do."

"How to say?"

"First of all, if I have to become a slave even if I survive, then I would rather die! If the deal fails, both of us will perish together."

Jiang Qian's words were extremely calm and unwavering:

"Besides, do you think the super-species world will let go of a copy master who tries to violate the rules? You can easily kill me and occupy my body, but this will also make you lose your cover and be directly exposed to the rules. Sooner or later, you will be exposed."

"Let alone other things, just the fact that you have to regularly enter the dungeon mission is enough to bother you. Other dungeons are not like the "Whisper of the Heart" that you are in charge of. Each dungeon has its own operating rules. You are not the master of all systems. When you are in someone else's territory, you still have to rack your brains to survive! I'm very sorry, the dungeon I matched with is at least nightmare-level difficulty. In other words, as the BOSS of the nightmare-level dungeon, you have to frequently challenge the higher-level hell mode. Are you sure this is the life you yearn for?"

The Demon of Seven Emotions stopped talking.

It was certainly not his intention to destroy both himself and the enemy, but it was obviously not that easy to manipulate this extremely talented young human in front of him like a puppet.

"Or are you more willing to accept another way of living in harmony?"

Jiang Qian looked at the other party and proposed his own plan:

"I am your carrier in the real world, allowing you to see a wider landscape and participate in more complex games, and you lend me your strength to achieve our common interests."

"During this process, as a legal player in the super-species world, I will regularly complete A to S-level dungeon missions to ensure our basic living conditions, and allow you to exercise control over this body to a certain extent. I regard this as a necessary price in exchange for power; but you must restrain your desire to completely occupy this body. Once you try to break the contract, don't forget that I can perish with you at any time. By then..."

Jiang Qian smiled, as calmly as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him:

"Not only will you lose a rare carrier, but you may also be exposed to the rules of the super-species world and be exterminated by the world's rules."

In a word: either we coexist harmoniously and each gets what it needs, or we all perish together and no one benefits.

"Your Excellency may call yourself a devil, but I believe you are a smart devil."

Having said that, Jiang Qian stopped talking and quietly looked at the Seven Emotions Demon, waiting for the other party's decision.

After a long while, a familiar laugh resounded throughout the virtual space...

"Hahahaha, interesting, so interesting!"

The seven emotions demon's expression changed constantly, and finally stabilized in a "eager to try" mood:

"I agree with your proposal! But you are wrong about one thing. I am trying to cross the line not to conquer and control the wider world. I am not that arrogant... I am just tired of it. I am tired of waiting. I am tired of guarding the most precious treasure in the world, but no one cares about it!"

"Thirteen years ago, Yun Zhongshuo came here and showed me the changes in the world today! Super-species forces are rising, and the original balance of power in the world has been quietly shaken, but everything is happening in secret, and no one can guess what its end will be..."

"Since then, I have been waiting for you! Waiting for you to grow up, waiting for you to unlock the authority of the super-species world. You are the son that Yun Zhongshuo has high hopes for, and only you can satisfy my curiosity! Only you are qualified to be the carrier for me to cross the boundary!"

"Let's go! Go back to your crisis. I will let your enemies know what trembling and despair are..."

It turns out that demons are also afraid of loneliness? This is surprising... Jiang Qian dispelled the distracting thoughts in his mind and put the black box in his hand into the prop locker:
"The good news is that my enemy and you are old acquaintances."

Thus, the contract was concluded.

It does not rely on any contractual props, but is based on the needs of each other's survival and development.

"Really?" The Seven Emotions Demon became more interested. "They were also people who passed the "Whisper of the Heart Devil", but they were the kind you looked down upon. Maybe you still have some of their parts here."

Then, Jiang Qian said the names of the two people.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The Seven Emotions Demon laughed loudly, licking the corner of his mouth and said: "They are so unlucky!"

Then, from the corner of the right wall cabinet, a series of human limbs and organs flew out one after another, surrounding the Seven Emotions Demon, emitting a rotten smell...

Come on, high risk corresponds to high return... A smile appeared on Jiang Qian's face.

The next second, the command "transmit back" cut off his affectionate gaze with the devil.

Jiang Qian's eyes were enveloped in darkness.

In the darkness, he heard a familiar prompt tone:
[“Whisper of the Inner Devil” hidden mission rewards are being calculated...]

……

[Experience Points Reward: 0.1%]

[Item rewards: Mask of Favor, Legendary Letter, Fairy's Dream Catcher, Dagger of Evil Slayer]

[Chip Reward: Super Crystal*0]

……

Not surprisingly, for him, a five-state complex, the meager experience points in the trial copy were not enough.

Fortunately, his double-card experience has already reached its peak, and he only needs a small medicine to pass through the heavenly tribulation!
After overcoming the heavenly tribulation, one can enter the sixth state of godhood, but what is this damn timidity... Jiang Qian had already prepared himself mentally for this, but there were too many "accidents" on this exploration trip, and his lost emotions were restored, which meant that he was no longer immune to some negative emotions.

And this may very likely affect the success of his tribulation.

"Calm down, calm down... We have to face what we have to face. Only after we get through this level can we get through the next more difficult level..." He tried to comfort himself.

However, it wasn't much better.

When facing the Demon of Seven Emotions just now, he had used up all his willpower and completely lost his previous calmness.

As he was thinking, the properties of the four items were laid out in Jiang Qian's mind, including the "Dream Catcher" and "Dagger" that could not display the properties of the props before!
By switching attention, anxiety is relieved to a certain extent.

This meant that his previous guess was correct. The dreamcatcher and dagger did belong to the category of props, but due to some special reasons, their functional attributes were not directly displayed to him.

Jiang Qian focused on the properties of the four items and checked them one by one:

【Name: Humanity Mask】

[Type: Accessories]

【Function: camouflage, amplification】

[Introduction: The ruler of the seven emotions selected the human face with a golden ratio, injected it with lively emotions, and made the soulless face come alive and full of charm. This is called the mask of human feelings.]

[Usage: Stick the mask of human feelings on your face and make it blend into your appearance. After that, you will gain the power to control emotions that destroy human nature, and make good use of other people's emotional loopholes to achieve your goals. No one can see through your true thoughts hidden under the mask, not even the six-state conceptual body with conceptual power. It should be noted that the single mask wearing time cannot exceed 48 hours. Once the time limit is exceeded, you will no longer be able to take the mask off your face. ]

【Note: Being sentimental will lead to self-isolation. 】

……

What a depressing prop, very suitable for politicians... Jiang Qian glanced coldly and hurriedly looked at the next prop.

【Name: Legendary Letter】

【Type: Stationery】

【Function: belief implantation, information archiving.】

[Introduction: In order to make his ideas last forever, the preacher who reached the pinnacle of his career specially made this letter, recording his lifelong unique knowledge, and sent it to his most proud disciple before his death, asking the disciple to continue to pass on his ideas. The remaining blank letter paper flowed into the folks and became a precious prop. It should be noted that in order to make the belief implanted more deeply rooted, this prop will improve the overall memory level of the implanted person, resulting in unforgettable memories. ]

[Usage 1: Implant belief. Write the content on a blank piece of letter paper, imagine the other person's appearance and silently recite the command "Implant", and continue to consume mental energy until the physical letter paper disappears, which is considered implantation complete. The implanted person cannot perceive the existence of the letter, but his behavior will change according to the belief implanted in the letter.]

[Usage 2: Archive information. Write the content on a blank piece of letter paper, imagine the other party's appearance and silently recite the command "archive", continue to consume mental energy until the physical letter paper disappears, and the archive is considered complete. The person being archived can retrieve the content of the letter through the memory feature and will never forget it.]

[Note: Noble people tend to forget things, and legendary letters are specially designed to cure noble people! ]

……

It seems that Yun Zhongshuo only used the "save" function on me. Does he really let me make my own choices?
Jiang Qian sighed silently and moved on to the next one.

The next "Fairy's Dream Net" was something that the Seven Emotions Demon "searched" out of him. The ownership of this thing always aroused Jiang Qian's curiosity:
【Name: Fairy's Dream Catcher】

【Type: Decoration】

【Function: Dream Catcher and Sleep】

[Introduction: A craftsman who loves drinking customized this dream catcher for his friend's daughter. It is made of the finest phoenix wood, with a net woven from orchid grass and decorated with phoenix feathers. It has the effect of catching dreams and promoting sleep.]

[Usage 1: Sleep peacefully. Hang the prop on the head of the bed, and you can sleep peacefully without being disturbed by nightmares.]

[Usage 2: Dream Catcher. Keep in touch with the sleeping target and use the dream catcher to spy on their dreams.]

[Usage 3: Dreaming. Keep in touch with the sleeping target and use the dream catcher to intervene in their memory space. You can delete, modify or hide specific memories.]

[Note: Dreams are the creation of the night and the crystallization of life; therefore, to modify a dream/memory, you need to pay an equal amount of life time in exchange. ]

……

This... Jiang Qian couldn't get over the introduction of the dream catcher's functions for a long time.

Undoubtedly, this prop seriously violated his privacy, but this violation seemed painless and harmless.

It can even be said that it only involves close interaction with my sister...

Thinking of this, Jiang Qian's intuition had already reached a conclusion, but he just couldn't see the cause and effect clearly.

"Don't worry about it, just go back and ask her directly!"

He cleared his mind of distracting thoughts and looked at the last item, the dagger that his biological mother had stabbed him with, nearly killing him:
[Name: Dagger of Evil Slayer]

[Type: Magical Instrument]

【Function: Stop evil】

[Introduction: Created by an old mage with extremely high cultivation, this magic weapon can cut off the karma of disasters and end all suffering. However, the evil karma that is cut off will not disappear...]

【Usage 1: Stab. Cause damage.】

[Usage 2: Cut off evil. Pierce the evil-cutting dagger into the target's heart. Once the dagger penetrates, the evil is cut off; the evil karma cut off will automatically transfer to the person holding the dagger.]

[Note: This is a life-for-life blade, the backlash will be immediate, use with caution! ]
