Chapter 2802: Persuasion
the lake, a small boat rocked gently. At the stern, a barefoot strong man with a straw hat on his back, rowed silently, lost in thought.At the edge of a table inside the boat house, several people sa..."Perhaps we could try contacting the Nine-Eyed Demon Falcon." After hearing about the current situation from Duan Bi, Tong Tian Mo Jun said in a low voice.
"You're saying we could use that ancient demon realm seal" Dàn Bì felt a jolt in his heart.
“Well, over the years, Jiuyan Mo Xiao's strength has always been difficult to improve. It is also limited by congenital defects. And the ancient demon fire of the Ancient Demon Realm is not only useful for me, but also for Jiuyan Mo Xiao.” Tong Tian Mo Jun gritted his teeth and said.
"What if, in the end, the Ancient Devil's True Flame can't satisfy both you and the Nine-Eyed Demon Hawk" Broken Arm hesitated for a moment.
"Choose one of the two options. I intend to walk the same path to the very end with King Lu Dan, sharing both honor and disgrace. I believe King Lu Dan knows how to make a choice." The Heavenly Demon Monarch chuckled with a knowing smile in his words.
Had he known the outcome would be like this, Duanbi's heart would have hesitated. The idea proposed by the Heavenly Demon Monarch wasn't bad either. Compared to now, the Heavenly Demon Monarch's strength was indeed far inferior to that of the Nine-Eyed Demon Falcon. However, the Heavenly Demon Monarch had suffered a serious injury before, damaging his foundation. Even if his strength recovered, after such a long delay, it would be difficult to ascend normally. Using the Boundary Heaven Stone to smuggle into the Immortal Realm became a necessary step.
In contrast, the Nine-Eyed Demon Hawk is a different story. Both sides still have a presence of the Tainted Pearl Buddhist Sect. As long as there's any possibility, this makes it difficult for Broken Arm to abandon the Heavenly Demon Lord and seek other partners.
"Nine-Eyes Brother, what do you seek coming to this realm for the Celestial Stone" With a plan in place, Duan Bi no longer hesitated and directly contacted Nine-Eyes Demon Falcon.
“I see no need to tell you.” The Nine-Eyed Demon Owl said coldly. There had been some past grievances between the two, but no great hatred. Of course, the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl saw no need to reveal its purpose.
“Traveling with the Ghost Lord Jin You, there are six cultivators of the Mahayana realm present. Judging by the current situation, back then, the Tushan Buddhist Sect and several powerful demon clan members were only able to activate the power of the oath within four stele imprints. Now we have powerful figures from humans, ghosts, demons, and the Yao clan gathered together. The auras are chaotic and uneven. Brother Jiuyan, do you think all of us will be able to embed the stele imprint into the Sky-World Stone” Duan Bi smiled coldly.”
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
"So what Does Lu Danwang intend to abandon his own goals to help me" The Nine-Eyed Demon Owl retorted sarcastically. His words had struck a chord with him. Right now, the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl was also worried about this point. With six Nascent Soul cultivators divided into three groups, it would be great if they could successfully imprint the three steles onto the boundary stone in the end. Most of those who succeed are likely to be among these three most powerful individuals. Such as Jin You Gui Master, Four-Eyed Golden Sun Bird, and this severed arm, Lu Xiaoxian."
His aspirations were not very grand. As for the nameless sword cultivator, his swordsmanship might not be weaker than others, but he didn't reveal any intention beforehand. Naturally, it was difficult for others to fathom his intentions.
"It's very possible that I could help Brother Nine Eyes. I wonder if Brother Nine Eyes is interested in the Ancient Demon Realm" Broken Arm continued to transmit his voice.
"The Demon Realm Lu Danwang wouldn't tell me you want to cultivate the demonic path, would you" The Nine-Eyed Demon Owl was startled, but the words spoken by the broken arm were too shocking. Naturally, the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl wouldn't believe the broken arm's words just based on a few sentences.
Of course, I wouldn't go to the Demon Dao, but I do have a demon friend who needs to rely on the Ancient Demon Realm.
"Who"
“Celestial Demon Sovereign.”
The Nine-Eyed Demon Hawk sounded as if it had heard the funniest thing. "As far as I know, King Lu Dan had previously fought with almost all the major demons of Tongtian to a standstill, and his plan to return was almost completely thwarted by King Lu Dan. Now you're telling me to help Tongtian Demon Lord open the Ancient Demon Realm"
"This is a time for this, and that is a time for that. I have no mortal enmity with the Heavenly Demon Sovereign, on the contrary, we now share common enemies. How can we not make peace"
"The Buddha Sect of the Exhausted Pearl" Even the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl was a shrewd person, and immediately thought of the key point.
“Not bad. With my current strength, I'm nowhere near ready to face the Tathagata Buddha Sect alone. I need to gather more like-minded individuals. I brought the spirit of the Heavenly Demon Monarch with me, but it's not convenient for him to appear at the moment.”
The Nine-Eyed Demon Owl fell silent, lost in thought. He pondered the possibilities hinted at by Lu Xiaoteng's words. While it sounded absurd, upon closer inspection, it wasn't entirely impossible. Compared to Lu Xiaoteng, the centuries-old feud between the Heavenly Soaring Demon King and the Zhū Buddhist Sect was far more irreconcilable.
While Lu Xiaoteng's main body was imprisoned by the Buddhist Sect, there were indeed points of interest for the two to cooperate. Besides the Heavenly Demon Sovereign, ordinary Mahayana cultivators would not easily confront the Buddhist Sect for Lu Xiaoteng. At least the Nine-Eyed Demon Falcon would not offend such a powerful enemy for some trivial benefit.
Once he joins forces with Lu Xia Tian, his relationship with the Golden Shade Ghost Master will be irreparably damaged. However, if his mission is unsuccessful and the Golden Shade Ghost Master benefits greatly, becoming even more powerful, can their relationship truly remain solid After all, their initial connection was based purely on mutual benefit.
As things stand, if he doesn't cooperate with this one-armed Lu Xiaoteng, his trip will likely end in failure. There are many people vying for a limited amount of resources. As for the extra benefits Jin Yougui promised him, they pale in comparison to opening the ancient Demon Realm. In this world, everyone acts in their self-interest. It's not that he isn't tempted, it's just that Lu Xiaoteng proposed it too suddenly, leaving Jiu Yan Mo Xiao uncertain.
Time and tide wait for no man. The Nine-Eyed Demon Falcon, believing it had no existence of its own, saw in Lü Xiaotian's severed arm and the nameless swordsman's strength a great chance to benefit from the three factions vying for power. If this opportunity were missed, there would only be regret later.
After deliberating for a while, the Nine-Eyed Demon Falcon gritted its teeth and transmitted a voice to the Armless One, "How does King Lu want me to cooperate"
"It depends, we may not necessarily need Jiuyan Daoist to make a move. The key is to see how much of an opening we can create on the Jietian Stone after breaking the power of the oath together. If it can accommodate three Dao inscriptions, that would be ideal. What if it only accommodates two, or even fewer Then Jiuyan Daoist might have to provide support from the sidelines."
"Good." The Nine-Eyed Demon Owl agreed.
After receiving the promise from the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl, Duan Bi's heart relaxed slightly, but he did not let down his guard. After all, it was just a verbal promise, and it didn't have much binding force on the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl. In the end, there were still many uncertainties about how the other party would act.
All the cultivators took a moment to catch their breath. Jin You Gui Zhu and Si Mu Jin Hao Bird recovered first, which also showed that these two were indeed more powerful than Jiu Yan Mo Xiao and You Tian Kun Sha.
The power of oaths from the distant void surged, a colossal stele figure flickering in and out of existence. Six powerful cultivators of the Great Ascension realm lined up single file, slowly approaching the location where the Jietian Stone was located.
As we press forward here, the might of the Jie Tian Shi Zhui oath placed upon us increases with each step. However, compared to before, there are six of us sharing the burden now, so the pressure is significantly lighter.e were other reasons why they couldn't send back useful information."The Dragon and Lion shook their heads, "Apart from this Lingxu Secret Realm, there might be other ways to reach the Otherworld. How...
