CHAPTER 499 LAWRENCE'S SACRIFICE (PART ONE)

"Perhaps, he is right. I have paid a high price to ingest his soul. Of course, I won't let him go without

getting what I want! Besides, all of you are doomed to death, what's the use of spilling a bargain for

your lives?"

With the mocking words, Eddy opened his eyes, which flashed a bloody angry light. It was evident that

his heart was filled with unbounded murderous intent. He couldn't wait to lay his hands upon these

annoying people before him.

"You are such a brute! Do you really intend to kill them?" While he was confronting the ruthless warrior

in front of him, Lawrence's face turned icy.

"You old bastard! What a shame for you to say so? Let me help you to recall what happened years ago,

for you to look back on the cruel things you have done to me!

At that time, I was as innocent as a baby. I did things and made decisions just by instinct. I indeed

made some mistakes because I had ingested some warriors' souls that were nobodies. But you

showed me no mercy. You didn't want to give me a chance to live but wanted to kill me instead! You

tried to burn me alive by True Fire. How could you torture me in such a cruel way? I was just a baby

then! What a ruthless bastard you are! I, the poor child, had begged you to let me live again and again.

And yet, what did you do? Have you ever been softhearted to me? Of course, you haven't, because

YOU are a damn ruthless dog! Hahaha..."

Eddy laughed like a lunatic. Behind that menacing laugh, nobody knew the mixed feelings he had deep This material belongs to .

inside—hatred, regrets, self-pity, and vengeance, all were tossed and tousled up inside him.

A moment later, Lawrence was still in silence, as the truth synced in on him. Eddy realized that at that

very moment, Lawrence was at his weakest, and then he seized the chance to make an attack. A spear

with runes was directly shot at Lawrence unannounced and at breakneck speed.

"All your bastards must go to hell! GO TO HELL!" Eddy roared as he let out all his displeasures.

At the same time, a rune-powered spear that had an overwhelming power that bore a force like

thousands of huge mountains was directly shot at Darren. Caught unprepared, Darren and the two

grand-elders that were standing with him trembled. The approaching spear was as if a representation

of Eddy's bedevilment. An intense pressure tried to crush Darren and the grand-elders into pieces

wanting them lifeless in no time.

Amidst the unstoppable attack, Lawrence, in his desperation to save Darren and the grand-elders,

shouted back at Eddy, saying, "Stop this now! Since you think what I had done to you is cruel, I would

do something to make it up for you. To do that, I'd like to stay with you in prison for twenty years.

Prison Form!"

With all the remaining strength that he had, Lawrence summoned the prison rule. The moment the

blood-red shadow rushed at them, countless gray runes were released at Lawrence's body, which

dazzled all over his being. The shimmering runes gathered and turned into dry vines, directly rushed at

the blood-red body, and wrapped it up to the point that the red body was totally immobilized.

"Imprisonment Rule?! You, old dog, intend to imprison me? Is that the best that you've got? It's

ridiculous, but NO WAY!" Eddy sneered at the thought of Lawrence's at the end of the tether move.

This time, Eddy was addressing Lawrence in a wild and arrogant way, showing no respect towards him

at all. Momentarily, he waved his faint golden spear, and the dry vines that bound him were cut into

pieces, vanishing in the air. It couldn't be doubted that Eddy was on the advantage when compared to

Lawrence when it came to battle. Aside from his age, Lawrence had gradually become weaker due to

the changes in the Bottom Spiritual World. Yet this time, he would not allow himself to be humiliated by

Eddy.

Bang!

To everyone's surprise, especially to Eddy's, Lawrence shifted his body into a dark prison cell and

immediately rushed at the daunted Eddy and put him down.

"That's impossible! Ah...No!"

The moment that he realized that he was held captive, Eddy couldn't believe that he had failed. As loud

as he could, he shouted while his eyes betrayed the fear and panic he felt inside.

"This is the strongest prison cell of the Imprisonment Rule. Only special cultivators who are of the Holy

Realm can break it. So I suggest you just stay here with patience and think of your prison life in the

next twenty years," Lawrence pointed out to Eddy, adding more misery to his torment.

After securing that Eddy was strenuously bonded without chances of escape, Lawrence faced Darren

and the two grand-elders, saying, "Young man, all of you are safe now. I assume you could leave."

The older man's gracious voice echoed in Darren and the two other men's heads, clearing all the fear

that was clouding their minds earlier. Howbeit, their relief was cut short when they noticed that all of

Lawrence's breaths vanished as his voice totally faded.

"Sir...!"

Just after he realized what dawned upon Lawrence, Darren murmured in lamentation. The young

warrior felt sad but also very much indebted towards the older man.

To show their reverence, Horace and Rocky knelt on the ground and expressed their gratitude to

Lawrence.

"What the fuck! What the hell! Damn this prison!"

Inside the prison cell, Eddy had lost all the sensibility that he had and shouted like a crazed dog. He

had his spear stabbed at the prison door a thousand times, but to his disappointment, all his efforts

were in vain.

After a long moment, Eddy grew tired and stopped his attacks with one of his legs kneeling on the

ground. His scarlet eyes were filled with resentment when he realized that the possibilities of escaping

the prison cell were very slim, even impossible.

"Well, that's good. Lawrence, old man, you can just imprison me in twenty years at most, but time flies

fast. After twenty years, I will take my revenge, and YOU brute will be crushed into pieces!" With a

voice that seemed to be dragged out of hell, Eddy clenched his teeth and yelled his threat towards

Darren.

As shivers of fear crept through Darren's skin, he rushed to the dark prison and peeped at Eddy

through a crack on the dark prison cell.

"Roar!"

Still unable to accept his defeat, Eddy bared his teeth and roared at Darren.

"It's your lucky day, bastard! Enjoy the rest of the twenty years. Sooner or later, I will break out of the

dark prison and take your life! Mark my words, useless bastard."

To hinder Eddy from doing any more harm, Lawrence sacrificed his soul to activate the Imprisonment

Rule and contain the vile warrior inside. However, the Imprisonment Rule was soul-consuming; as time

went on, Lawrence's spiritual energy would vanish gradually, and the shackle force that bound the

prisoner would similarly be weakened. Twenty years was Lawrence's best efforts to stay Eddy

imprisoned.

"Twenty years is not a long time; indeed, I can wait. I will make sure that twenty years later, I will make

certain of your death by killing you with my own hands!" Darren bellowed coldly, stepping away from

the prison cell. He was not afraid of Eddy this time, and he meant his words heartily.

"Are you kidding me? You? The loser? Forget it! No matter how much effort you spend in cultivating,

eventually, one fact is inevitable. You will be defeated, and I will always win against you, weakling!" Not

even moved by Darren's threat, Eddy shouted sneeringly with a voice steaming with anger.
