"Wait!"
Seeing that King Nadi seemed about to take action, a cloud of black smoke suddenly rose above the three-headed and six-armed demon. When the black smoke quickly dissipated, the three-headed and six-armed demon had disappeared, revealing Qu Wuming's true form.
King Di Gong hesitated for a moment after hearing the words, looked down at Qu Wuming, and asked with some contempt: "What? Are there any last words that I want to say?"
"Prince Di Gong, I admit that with the condition the three of us are in right now, we may not be able to escape death." Qu Wuming looked at Prince Di Gong, whose momentum was still rising, and said calmly without any fear in his eyes. , "I just want to ask you one thing, about your last battle with the cultivators from the Eastern Continent."
"Huh?" During that battle, King Di Gong could say that the hatred was unforgettable in King Di Gong's heart. When Qu Wuming asked, he didn't want to answer, but the Tiancong Blood Blade in his hand involuntarily lowered it, coldly. Said, "Haha, do you want to survive for a while by asking questions? What do you want to ask?"
Qu Wuming was originally worried that King Di Gong would not allow him to speak and take action directly. If that were the case, the only way to survive would be to forcefully explode the "Falling Star" orb in order to survive.
But if that still fails to seriously injure Lord Digong and his shikigami Yamata no Orochi, there will be only a dead end.
Seeing that King Digong allowed himself to ask questions, Qu Wuming thought for a moment and asked: "The rumors I heard before are that King Digong of Izumo Kingdom once had a powerful guard called the Heavenly King Army. Although the number was not high, There are many, but all of them have cultivation levels above the divine transformation stage, and each of them has at least one shikigami whose strength is not inferior to his own."
"This Heavenly King Army has only one duty, and that is to guard King Di Gong. Even when King Di Gong launched the last war to invade the Eastern Continent, they almost never deployed." Qu Wuming said slowly, "But , when the allied forces from the Eastern Territory Continent invaded the Izumo Kingdom, they attacked and destroyed many cities along the way and captured countless cities. Until they invaded the capital of the Izumo Kingdom, they never saw the shadow of the Heavenly King's army."
"Until the end, when the Eastern Territory Continental Allied Forces fought with you at the largest shrine in Izumo Country, the Heavenly King Army still did not appear." Qu Wuming said here, paused for a moment, and then slowly asked, "Now it has passed After so many years, many of the seniors who participated in that battle have ascended and fallen, and it seems that no one knows the secrets of that year anymore. But I have always been curious about that King's Army that is only loyal to you. Where did it go? If that army is still there, the seniors who invaded Izumo Country may not be able to win so easily, right? I wonder if Lord Digong can answer this question for me?"
King Di Gong listened quietly to Qu Wuming's narration, and his thoughts seemed to go back to the prosperous years of his endless battles. In the past, he had elite soldiers like clouds, fierce generals like rain, high spirits, and there were many monsters and gods supporting him behind him. I am willing to develop in a tiny place like the four islands of Izumo Country.
Yes, the Futi Kingdom has occupied such a huge territory in the Eastern Continent for thousands of years. It’s time for someone else to be the master!
As for the Heavenly King's Army... it is the biggest trump card that he plans to use to destroy the Buddha Kingdom!
War is always the fastest way to plunder resources.
There were several aggressive wars of varying sizes. Although the final outcome was that the Izumo Kingdom had to retreat to the four islands due to the resistance of the Eastern Continent, the national power of the Izumo Kingdom not only did not decline, but instead grew faster and faster. .
After the war, low-level monks sprung up again every time, and even the number of high-level monks above the God Transformation stage increased extremely rapidly - all because of the large number of cultivators plundered from the Eastern Continent. resources as support.
Although the cultivation system of the Izumo Kingdom monks has many similarities with the Eastern Continent, it even dates back to more than 10,000 years ago, and many of them were passed down from the Eastern Continent. However, after a long period of development, due to the lack of resources, the monks of Izumo Kingdom gradually explored a new set of cultivation methods and systems. That is, with limited resources, they combined with the people who have lived in Izumo Kingdom since ancient times. Those big monsters, strange beasts, ghosts and gods form similar alliances or contractual relationships, and use the power of those aliens to improve themselves - supporting each other, each getting what they need, and improving together.
Some feed ghosts with blood, some serve demons with essence, some sacrifice their own flesh and blood relatives, and some simply associate with demons and ghosts. Gradually, this cultivation method has evolved into the mainstream of Izumo country's monks. These are related to the human race. Monsters, ghosts and other alien species that ascetics have established contracts with are collectively called "Shikigami".
It is precisely because through shikigami practice that you can obtain the assistance of these demons and ghosts, ascetics often improve very quickly. This is especially true with the help of the huge resources that will be plundered from the Eastern Territory Continent.
The demons and ghosts who are shikigami in Izumo Country promised King Digong greater returns in exchange for the resources they needed for their own cultivation and improvement.
Both sides got what they needed in the first few cooperations, and it can be said that everyone was happy.
Those demons and ghosts who are shikigami helped King Di Gong create a powerful army of ascetics, including many low-level demons, ghosts, and strange beasts. As shikigami, they participated in every invasion of the Eastern Continent. fighting.
And those shikigami who gradually became very high in cultivation became the exclusive shikigami of King Di Gong's ace elite, the Heavenly King Army.
Just when King Dimiya returned from the Eastern Continent once again, ready to recuperate and regroup, nearly a hundred of the largest shrines in Izumo Kingdom came together to deliver a message to King Dinomiya. , or in other words, is an order.
That is to ask King Di Gong to send troops as soon as possible to open the space channel between the Eastern Territory Continent and the Monster Beast Continent, so that the Monster Beast Continent can invade the Eastern Territory again.
If King Di Gong agrees, then everything will remain as usual. The aliens can also create a group of powerful warriors for King Di Gong as quickly as possible.
But if King Di Gong does not agree, then he will be the culprit of the split between all shikigami and human cultivators.
Shikigami know very well that today's monastic world in Izumo Country is almost inseparable from the help of shikigami. Without shikigami, almost all the monks would seem to have half their wings broken and half lame. Legs!
This news undoubtedly poured cold water on the smug King Digong, allowing him to recognize the biggest problem with the army of monks in Izumo Country - those powerful shikigami are only unreliable allies, not Their spiritual pets and slaves!
The previous friendly cooperation was based on the lack of resources in Izumo Country, everyone was very poor and needed to support each other, and the repeated plunder of the Eastern Continent after Izumo Country brought back a large amount of resources , the status relationship between shikigami and their "masters" has gradually undergone fundamental changes.
Especially among the shikigami, those powerful monsters, ghosts, and strange beasts at the top of the pyramid, with the accumulation of huge resources, and with the help of their innate advantages in race, talent, etc., they have achieved success in hundreds of years. A sudden increase in strength and cultivation.
When King Di Gong truly realized that those powerful shikigami were too big to lose, he found that he had no means in his hands that could check and balance those powerful aliens!
In the heart of the proud King Digong, it is true that the Shikigami are allies, but they should be assistants and servants of the human race, and a group that should obey the leadership of the human race. He never thought that the Shikigami group would have such alien intentions!
This concept is actually the most common concept among many Izumo monks who possess shikigami, which is not surprising. Because most of the shikigami who have formed contracts with human ascetics have established contracts since they were weak. Since then, they have grown and fought together with the people who made the contract. The relationship between many shikigami and their contracting parties is also very deep, almost There is never a case of betrayal of the contracting party.
This gives the human cultivators the illusion that shikigami are loyal and selfless, and some types of shikigami are even willing to sacrifice themselves for their contracting parties.
However, everyone has overlooked the fact that most shikigami belong to some huge ethnic groups, and their group rules are different from those of the human race.
No matter how harmonious and close the personal relationship between the shikigami and its contractor was before, it was not worth mentioning in the face of the interests of the ethnic group.
Once the real kings of these ethnic groups, the ancestors, elders, clan leaders, etc. of those ethnic groups make decisions, ordinary members of the ethnic group will not hesitate to abandon their contract makers and obey the ethnic group's rules, even if they are reluctant. Decide.
And those powerful aliens who can really determine the will of the ethnic group have always hidden behind the scenes in a tacit agreement, and none of them have ever concluded a shikigami contract with the monks of Izumo Country. They have always been spiritual leaders among the tribe, and rarely intervene in the activities of lower-ranking tribesmen. It has always been as if they did not really exist.
But when their strength further expanded, they finally no longer concealed their ambitions and made their voices heard directly to King Di Gong for the first time.
Only then did King Digong realize that the monsters and alien tribes of Izumo Country that he had always thought were actually connected with the Monster Continent!
I always thought that the contract with the shikigami was to borrow their power for development, and it was mutually beneficial to each other, and it was more likely that the human race was taking advantage of those shikigami with simple minds and simple temperaments. But now it seems that the real master behind the shikigami has been using human races like himself to achieve his own development and growth!
I originally thought I was playing a monkey game, but I didn’t expect that I was the one being treated like a monkey!
How could King Di Gong, who prided himself on being wise and powerful, swallow such a sigh of relief?
It is unbearable!
King Di Gong does not want to become the puppet of these aliens from now on, let alone allow them to open the space passage to the Monster Continent - not because he cherishes the lives of the human race in the Eastern Continent, but because of his goal as King Di Gong. It is to incorporate the Eastern Continent into its own territory, not to make wedding clothes for those monsters! If the monster continent is really allowed to open the space channel again, I am afraid that even Izumo Country may become a world of monsters in the future.
So, after thinking hard for a while, King Di Gong finally made a choice that was the only right choice at the time...
"Give Qimao a channel..."
