Chapter 562 The Price of the King
In fact, Jiger himself did not expect that the effect after summoning the demon sword Muramasa would be so good. He tried to recall the demon sword Muramasa, but as long as Muramasa moved back a little, the nineteen long swords would suddenly burst out with golden light again, as if they were about to enter a violent state.
Seeing this, Jiger had to temporarily give up recalling Muramasa, and at the same time he also confirmed the restraining effect of Muramasa on the nineteen golden swords.
But it is not a good idea to let the demon sword Muramasa be in a stalemate with those golden swords. Jige does not want to lose his demon sword Muramasa here.
After thinking for a moment, Jiger looked at Lily beside him and said,
"Lily Palace, if I can't go out later, you should stay here with me."
Lily was stunned for a moment. Before she could speak, the dark power burst out from Jiger's hand pressing on her back. His palm was like a floodgate that had been opened. The power of the Mark of Emptiness in Lily's body suddenly rushed into Jiger's body like a bursting dam.
In just a moment, the power of the Mark of Void was completely absorbed by Jiger. The golden Mark of Void appeared on Jiger's forehead. Two beams of golden light as if real shot out from Jiger's eyes. At this moment, he looked like a noble god.
The golden swords in the air sensed the intersection of the Mark of the Void, and they all teleported directly in front of Jiger, followed closely by the demon sword Muramasa.
Jiger frowned slightly, after receiving the Mark of the Void, he felt like he was in the clouds.
He slowly lowered the hand that had been pressing on Lily's back, and in his palm was a dark vortex that slowly dissipated.
At this moment, Lily was filled with an unprecedented sense of relaxation. She suddenly stretched out her arms, closed her eyes, and spun on the spot, her skirt flying, and for a moment, she was full of spring.
She opened her lips and murmured,
"Long-lost freedom..."
Jiger glanced at Lily indifferently and said,
"Come with me."
Lily's agitated emotions suddenly cooled down. Without the restraint of the Mark of the Void, her personality became more lively. She curled her lips and said reluctantly,
"As you command, my king!"
As she spoke, Lily's eyes rolled around, and the operating space instantly opened up. She was about to use space displacement to leave here.
Her strength had been restored, so she could naturally use the demonic power at will. However, before she could successfully unleash her power, a brilliant golden light suddenly burst out from the walls of the hall, as if some kind of magic circle had been activated.
The operating room that had just opened burst with a "pop" sound like a balloon, leaving Lily at the center, standing there awkwardly.
Jiger walked slowly up the stairs and said with his back to Lily,
"Be honest, there won't be a next time."
Lily frowned and suddenly felt a chill on her back. She turned around abruptly and saw that the nineteen golden swords were led by the demon sword Muramasa in front of them, with the tips of the swords pointing directly at her.
Seeing this scene, Lily's pupils shrank and she was horrified.
"He can actually control these swords! Has he escaped the suppression of the Sky Throne? "
Jiger ignored Lily and walked slowly with her to the platform at the top of the stairs, one step at a time. This was where the Throne of the Sky originally stood, but now it was empty.
Jiger turned around and sat down slowly. The moment he bent down, the Sky Throne that had disappeared reappeared.
Lily looked at the familiar scene in front of her and felt emotional. She felt the same way back then.
She asked softly,
"How does it feel?"
Jiger smiled and said,
“It feels good to be in control.”
"Control everything? No, you can't even realize your own freedom. Isn't it ironic?"
Jiger rubbed his hands slowly on the armrests of the Sky Throne and chuckled.
"You are wrong. The king is not subject to any constraints, so he is naturally the freest person in the world."
Lily looked back at the long swords that were "watching with eager eyes" behind her and said,
"But the truth is not necessarily so. Becoming a king comes at a price."
"Of course there is a price to pay. Effort and time are necessary, and I have paid the price."
Lily sighed. She felt that Jiger was still too confident.
"Then you should leave here and try it to see if you can do it."
Jiger responded with a smile,
"Lily Palace, there is a famous saying you may not have heard of."
"what?"
"The whole world belongs to the king. Now that I am the king, the whole world belongs to me. Is there any place I cannot go?"
As he spoke, a black light flashed in Jiger's eyes, and the golden mark of emptiness between his eyebrows suddenly burst out with a dazzling golden light, which became more and more dazzling until the entire hall turned into a golden ocean.
I saw that the color of the mark of space was becoming darker and darker, and in a moment it changed from gold to red, looking like a red-hot iron.
Lily had held the Mark of the Void for more than 800 years, and had never seen anything like this before. She exclaimed in surprise,
"Jig-sensei what are you doing!?"
Jig did not respond. At this moment, he was compressing all the dark power in his body into the Mark of Void between his eyebrows. As the dark power poured in, the Mark of Void immediately erupted with strong resistance. However, at this time, the Mark of Void had been completely integrated into Jig's body. This was the home ground of darkness.
The power of darkness wrapped the Mark of Void layer by layer, and the Mark of Void began to tremble violently. The nineteen golden swords outside seemed to sense the crisis of the Mark of Void and became violent again, shooting at Jiger who was sitting on the Throne of Void.
The demon sword Muramasa immediately separated out an equal number of black swords, which collided with the golden sword and protected Jiger behind.
Everything that happened suddenly made Lily a little flustered. At this time, Jiger's voice sounded.
"Lily Palace, go help Muramasa block those long swords."
Lily obeyed Jiger's instructions completely subconsciously, and immediately entered the source demon form. With a wave of her hand, countless black arrows emerged from all directions and tightly entangled those golden swords.
With the obstruction of the demon sword Muramasa and Lily, all the golden swords were temporarily stopped. A layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on Lily's forehead. It was obvious that controlling these golden swords was not easy for her.
She turned to look at Jiger and said urgently,
"Gig Saint, you..."
Lily stopped talking before she even finished. Her eyes widened as if she had seen something incredible.
I saw that the mark of emptiness between Jiger's eyebrows had completely transformed into ink-black, and even a pitch-black crown appeared out of thin air on his head.
