"If you give me your body, I promise to keep your soul immortal," the fiend offered. This was the concession he came up with.
"What makes you think that I will give my body to you? Who do you think you are?" Darren sneered.
"Well, I am stronger than you, and I can kill you anytime I want. If you wish to die, I can easily grant it, stupid human." The fiend, who pretended to be angry, released a powerful fiend power to attack Darren.
Boom! Boom!
A blade and sword storm suddenly emerged from Darren's body.
But this blade and sword storm didn't resist the fiend power. Instead, it crazily slashed Darren's own body.
"Stop!" the fiend shouted at once.
When he saw that Darren's body had begun to crack, he immediately took his fiend power back and ordered Darren to stop. He realized that Darren was willing to destroy his own body than give it to him.
'This human is really a madman. He is so crazy that he isn't even afraid of death,' he thought inwardly.
"Name your condition. Just give me your body. I can even make you stronger than you are now." The fiend didn't want to give up, so this time, he tried to coax Darren.
"Don't play tricks on me. I'm not a child." Unfortunately, Darren was not that stupid to be fooled by him.
A sense of fury surged up from the fiend's heart. He had been waiting for so many years to have a proper body. And now that he found one, he still couldn't get it. His heart almost burst with anger.
"Well... if you don't give in, I don't have a choice but to destroy everything." This time, the fiend couldn't control his anger anymore.
"Wait," Darren said in a low voice.
"What now? Are you going to beg for my mercy again this time?"
"Huh? Are all fiends really stupid?" Darren snorted. "I know that you only want my body because you need it to escape from here. Why don't you just tell me the reason why you are trapped here? Maybe I can help you break free. Then you will still have a chance to enjoy your life," Darren said.
"Are all humans as arrogant as you? How can a nobody like you have the guts to talk about escaping from the Order Prison? So ridiculous!" the fiend roared disdainfully.
As far as he knew, only the rule cultivators who mastered the high-level Order Law could have the chance to break the Order Prison.
Darren looked into the dark void and thought for a while. It seemed that the area within tens of thousands of kilometers was covered by a large net.
After a few moments of silence, Darren suddenly asked, "Have you ever seen a large number of worms?"
"What if I have?"
"How were they able to escape from here without scruples?" Darren asked again.
The fiend fell silent for a few seconds before he said, "That's because they are too weak. The Order Law can only imprison powerful masters like me."
"Oh, I see..." Darren murmured with a smile. He then accelerated and dashed into the void.
Bang!
Much to his dismay, he was suppressed by the law silk threads and bounced back.
"Stupid! Do you really think you can escape that easy? For your information, this prison was originally designed to imprison humans like you. Even the weakest of your kind can't escape from here," the fiend said with a smirk.
But at the moment, he was not that anxious to kill Darren anymore. After being imprisoned for so many years, he now realized that it was better to have someone to talk to. It was so lonesome to be imprisoned alone.
"Damn it!" Darren cursed. If what the fiend said was true, he could not get out of here at all.
"What else can you do? Just accept your fate and give your body to me. I promise you once I break this damn prison, I'll get your soul out of here," said the fiend calmly.
"No way!" Darren refused bluntly.
"Why are you so stupid? Think it over. I don't want to kill you anymore. I forget to tell you that in this damn place, thunder punishment comes every twenty hours. If you experience it, you can finally understand what real sufferings are in this world. Remember to tell me when you've thought it through."
The fiend could tell that Darren was also eager to get out of the Order Prison just like him. So he thought that he didn't need to force Darren. He believed that when Darren experienced the pain, Darren would automatically contribute his body to him.
Eventually, the fiend disappeared.
Darren was left sitting alone in the dark void. He was still trying his best to think of the best way to get out.
He had been sitting quietly for a few hours when lightning suddenly flashed above his head.
