Gu Qingshan and Laura had just finished talking when Empress Li An started to call him over.
"What's wrong?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"I'm going to call the devil soon. Come here and I'll tell you what to pay attention to."
"good."
Gu Qingshan also looked solemn.
This is the most important thing and must not be deviated from.
Empress Li An said: "You are about to break through to the realm of canonization, so during this heavenly tribulation, there will be four kinds of demons and four kinds of ghosts that will respond to the tribulation method, and together they will be in charge of the eight tribulation positions."
"So I want to talk to them?"
"Yes."
"Tell me specifically."
"The four kinds of demons are the Flame Devouring Demon, Shadow Beast, Asura, and Heavenly Demon;"
"The four kinds of ghosts are hungry ghosts, underworld ghosts, vampire ghosts, and Mara-bodied ghosts."
"These eight demon kings and ghost kings will jointly control the eight tribulation positions to prevent you from breaking through the realm and drag you into death."
"What do you mean by robbery?"
"The position of tribulation represents authority, and you can command your own kind of demons or ghosts during the tribulation."
"There are billions of worlds and countless ghost realms. Whichever realm's king comes first to follow the tribulation will win the tribulation position."
"First come, first served?"
"Yes, but you must be the leader of the demon world or the ghost world and come as a king to be eligible for the robbery position."
Empress Li An continued: "The eight calamity positions mean that four demon kings and four ghost kings will appear. They will command their own kind in order to kill you in the calamity."
Gu Qingshan sighed: "Heavenly Tribulation is quite particular about killing people."
"Fortunately," Empress Li An smiled and said, "This time my mother came first. She is a high-ranking figure in the original demon world. If she arrives here first, no matter how many demons come later, they will have to follow the laws of the heavenly tribulation. Follow the rules of the law and obey her orders.”
Gu Qingshan looked at the Original Demon Mother.
The Demon Mother nodded at him and said: "You don't need to worry about the Demon, you have to convince the other seven commanders."
"Thank you, Your Excellency." Gu Qingshan cupped his fists and saluted.
"Okay, let's start with the simplest object. Well - the Flame Devourer has the simplest mind, but it is also very strong and likes to destroy everything. If it hears that there are 200 million souls, it will definitely agree. Li An said.
She formed a seal with her hands and chanted a calling spell.
After a while, the void emitted a blazing light.
A rough voice followed.
"Who is calling me?"
I saw a black monster covered in flames jumping out of the void.
"This is a Flame Devouring Demon King who has a good relationship with us."
Li An quickly sent a message to Gu Qingshan.
The Flame Devouring Demon King looked around, saw Gu Qingshan at a glance, and understood immediately.
"Ah, it turned out to be the monk who asked me to join him in killing the Tribulation..."
At this point, it can't go on.
It looked at the demons and saw that they were all familiar to it.
But the Heavenly Demon Empress stood beside the monk, surrounded by several great Heavenly Demons, and even the rare original Demon Mother.
Such a powerful force, but kept calm with the monk who was crossing the tribulation, and both parties had no intention of taking action.
The Flame Devourer looked at it for a long time, but couldn't figure out what was going on. He murmured: "God's calamity, did I go to the wrong place?"
At this time Empress Li An walked up and began to explain.
"Is such that……"
As she explained, the Flame Devouring Demon King suddenly understood.
"What! Two hundred million souls?"
"Yes, do you agree to come and help? If you agree, the only price is not to touch the monk who has crossed the tribulation. He is one of ours."
"Of course that's no problem, but how do you plan to divide the 200 million souls?"
"Of course, whoever robs the most belongs to him." Li An explained.
The Flame Devouring Demon King felt relieved and said loudly: "Okay, it's settled."
Empress Li An looked at Gu Qingshan.
Gu Qingshan handed her a leaf from the Holy Thorn Tree.
Empress Li An explained again.
The Flame Devouring Demon King had 200 million souls in mind and happily swore an oath to the leaves of the sacred tree.
"Okay, have you got the robbery position?" Empress Li An finally asked.
"I have already felt the calamity on it." The ghost mother interjected.
"Ah, yes, is it the Demon Mother who is responsible for the calamity of the demon this time?" the Flame Devouring Demon King said cautiously.
"It's me, but don't worry, I won't compete with you juniors for souls." Ghost Mother said.
"Hahaha, thank you so much, Lady Ghost Mother."
The Flame Devouring Demon King said and returned to the void.
According to the plan just discussed, it will call its subordinates and wait until the natural disaster officially begins, and then follow the disaster.
"There are six left, who should we call next?" Gu Qingshan asked.
Li An seemed to have encountered some problem, frowning and said: "The King of Shadow Demon, a cunning and greedy guy."
"greedy?"
"Yes, it is the most greedy one among the four demons and ghosts this time."
"Then just call it. I like greedy business partners. Besides, when talking about business, I don't just let you talk alone. I will also speak up when necessary." Gu Qingshan said.
"All right."
Li An changed his hand seals and recited the Shadow Demon's Calling Mantra.
After a moment, a dark shadow appeared on the ground of the square.
The shadow came to Li An and slowly stood up.
It was eight meters high, made entirely of shadows, and looked like an unknown dark abyss.
But in fact, it is a shadow demon, and it is the king of shadow demons.
"Thunder Tribulation? It's strange. It doesn't look like you want to kill someone. Empress Li An, why did you call me?" the Shadow Demon King asked.
Empress Li An told the story again.
"Twenty million souls...wait a moment..." the Shadow Demon King said.
Waves of dark winds emitted from it and disappeared into the void.
It seems that it is contacting other worlds to find out some news.
After a few breaths, it suddenly raised its head and said: "It turns out that this is a very critical war. I can agree to your request, but the conditions cannot be so simple."
"What conditions do you want?" Li An asked.
"You know, what we Shadow Demons like most is not souls, but money!" said the King of Shadow Demons.
Li An looked at Gu Qingshan.
Gu Qingshan looked at Laura.
Laura threw a cup over casually.
Gu Qingshan took the cup and saw that it was the "Endless Golden Sand Holy Grail".
Gu Qingshan handed the cup to Li An and whispered something.
Li An nodded and tipped the cup over.
The shiny, shining golden sand pours out of the cup and falls to the ground, making a "rustling" sound.
"Ah, what a pleasant sound." The Shadow Demon King said softly.
The gold sand poured down very quickly, and soon a small pile of gold accumulated. And as time went by, the pile of gold sand continued to grow.
"Gold...is this the legendary endless golden sand Holy Grail?" the Shadow Demon King said.
"Yes." Li An said.
"You are all willing to pay such a price... Well, since you are so sincere, I can agree, but you still need to meet another small request of mine." The Shadow Demon King said with a smile.
Li An's expression changed and he was about to speak.
But she finally kept her mouth shut.
Just because Gu Qingshan had already taken action before her.
At some point, Gu Qingshan was holding the Earth Sword and pressing it on the Shadow Demon King's neck.
Invisible wind lingers on the sword.
At this moment, the soul power filled the Earth Sword!
The King of Shadow Demon smiled and said: "Are you threatening me? It's a pity that you can't kill me. I have nine thousand bodies."
"You stinky boy, I'll just stand here and don't make any defense. I'll let you kill me."
"You don't defend yourself? Let me kill you?" Gu Qingshan repeated.
The voice of the Shadow Demon King became deeper: "But I want to say something in advance, as long as you dare to take action, I will definitely kill you with all my strength in the catastrophe!"
Gu Qingshan nodded and waved his sword.
Shadow Demon let out a scream and said angrily: "How dare you——"
Before it finished speaking, its entire body collapsed and disappeared.
Gu Qingshan sheathed his sword.
He said to Li An: "Go on, you call it again."
Li An was startled and said in surprise: "But you've already done it, I'm afraid it won't come again."
"If it's really that greedy, it will definitely come again."
"Why?"
"I have gained nothing and lost a body in vain. Even I won't be willing to accept it, and I'm afraid it won't be willing to do it even more."
"……All right."
Li An made a hand seal again and began to call the Shadow Demon King.
After counting the interest——
A black shadow stood up from the floor of the square again.
"Boy, you actually dare to take action, very good, very good." The King of Shadow Demon said.
The momentum on it keeps rising, and it seems to be brewing something.
Gu Qingshan said calmly: "First of all, the other demon kings who have been robbed have signed contracts with me. You can ask the demon mother about this."
The Shadow Demon King couldn't help but look at the Original Demon Mother.
The Demon Mother nodded eccentrically.
The King of Shadow Demon couldn't help being shocked when he saw that this was the case.
If the seven demon kings all sided with each other, wouldn't he become the target of public criticism during the catastrophe?
But he has obtained the position of tribulation, and according to the laws of tribulation, he will definitely be summoned.
Do I have to lead my men to face the siege of seven demon kings?
This will be a difficult situation like a catastrophe...
——Wait a minute, who the hell is going to do this?
"I can even bribe seven demon kings, and I can even bring out the endless golden sand Holy Grail. Do you think I will be afraid of natural disaster?"
Gu Qingshan smiled and continued: "As long as you dare to come and attack me, I guarantee that everyone will kill you first - no matter how big you are."
"Twenty million souls don't belong to you, and you can't even dream of getting the endless golden sand Holy Grail."
"You go ahead and come back when the catastrophe begins. Then we will have a good fight and see who will die."
Gu Qingshan finished speaking in one breath.
The whole place was quiet.
The Shadow Demon King was silent.
At this time, Gu Qingshan spoke again: "If you really want to negotiate business, then our conditions are the same as before. At most, we will give you some corpses of possessed people as a supplement."
"Now, you choose, whether to fight a war with us demon kings, or share souls and treasures with us."
The whole place remained quiet.
After counting the breaths.
Gu Qingshan continued: "This is the last chance. If you don't participate, we will start soon."
"Okay, you don't want to participate? Then you can go, we are ready to go to war-"
"Wait a minute!" The King of Shadow Demon changed his tone and said with a smile: "When doing business, people have to think about whether it is worthwhile or not, don't you think?"
"This makes sense. In fact, I also like to make money by being friendly." Gu Qingshan also laughed and threw a leaf of the Holy Thorn Tree over.
"Okay, this is the contract, you sign it."
"No problem. When can you give me the Sands Holy Grail?"
"I'll give it to you after you sign it."
"Then I'll sign."
…
Shadow Demon's Forgetting held the endless golden sand Holy Grail and left happily.
"How do you know it will be signed?" Li An asked.
"You said it is the most greedy, so as long as it comes, it proves that it is not willing to give in and wants to get some benefits instead of being killed."
"On the one hand, it has 200 million souls and the endless golden sand Holy Grail, and on the other hand, it has become the target of everyone's encirclement and suppression. I think it still has reason."
Gu Qingshan smiled and continued: "So I like dealing with greedy opponents - their choices are usually not too complicated."
Li An sighed, shook his head and said, "I don't think you are human."
"Why is this?" Gu Qingshan asked.
The original ghost mother looked at him and said, "Because you are more like a devil than a devil."
