In the chaotic void, there is a bronze Tao palace with endless rays of light and fragments of Tao rhyme flowing.
The gloomy-looking Taoist Shuo Yun was patrolling in a certain hall, surrounded by a large group of guards and followers.
At this time, hundreds of Taiqing Infinite Heavenly Powers gathered here and were being treated by various means.
Every powerful person who was recruited was surrounded by dozens of high-level monks busy at work. There were humans and aliens among them, and there were even several figures of innate chaotic gods and demons that took the form of humans.
However, just looking at the gloomy faces of those powerful men, their extremely dim and decayed auras, their little luck left, and their Taoist cultivation on the verge of collapse, it is clear that their time is numbered. The current treatment methods are nothing more than talking about personnel matters.
Since the beginning of the war, no one has been heard of a powerful person who has been hit by a mysterious curse to survive. The most powerful characters cannot last more than three months.
These powerful men themselves are well aware of this, so today's top leaders of the coalition forces have formed a certain routine. As soon as someone discovers that something is wrong with him or her, they will immediately call their disciples and disciples to give instructions on their funeral arrangements.
Since most of them are high-ranking people, once they fall, the huge power resources and various rich inheritances they leave behind will immediately attract countless people to compete for them.
If something happens to ten or eight big figures within a super power at the same time, it will inevitably lead to turmoil at the top of the sect. Frequent reshuffles of the internal power structure will make the entire sect uneasy and have no intention of doing anything.
If there are too many examples like this, it will not only significantly weaken the overall strength and cohesion of the sect, but also have a particularly strong impact on those close friends of the same sect and the relatives of the younger generation around them.
No one knows whether the next unlucky person will be his or her elders or relatives.
No one wants to die in frustration like this. Therefore, as more and more powerful people died, the voices of the top leaders of the coalition advocating for peace talks became louder and louder, becoming increasingly difficult to suppress.
Therefore, another secret contact with the original Demon Palace was inevitable. However, because the top leaders of the coalition were unwilling to make substantive concessions, the failure of the contact was an expected result.
"...Is there really no other way? We can only let those demons kill our people wantonly?"
After a long time, Taoist Shuoyun spoke in a low voice.
An elder next to him looked at his face and said cautiously: "We are trying new methods. Some taboo secret techniques that were not allowed to be used before have been used this time. As for whether we can see the effect, it still needs to be Time will tell.”
If you say this kind of thing about a wheel, it is as if you haven’t said it yet. Who wouldn’t know that all the top superpowers are spending all their money, investing massive amounts of manpower and material resources, and working hard to crack this mysterious curse?
Taoist Shuo Yun glanced at him angrily, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said slowly:
"Is there any way to convince the Original Demon Palace to let them suspend their attacks on our senior figures?"
Even if the terms of the armistice cannot be negotiated, at least don't let the top leaders of the coalition continue to die, because everyone really can't bear it.
In fact, Taiqing Wuliangtian's situation is relatively mild, but it has also damaged more than a dozen sub-sages, including Guangling Dao Zun.
The most unlucky Yasheng, he was aggrieved and fell into the trap less than a few days after being canonized. After struggling for several months, Daoji collapsed and died sadly.
Now, no one is even willing to take over the vacant sub-sage positions in the sect. In the past, those big shots would have fought for them head-on.
The confidant elder was silent for a moment and said softly: "Maybe we can talk, but what suitable conditions can we offer here? They will definitely not give in easily."
Dao Zun Shuoyun said immediately: "As long as they are willing to agree to this, the coalition's attack on the Tiandao Barrier Formation of the Original Demon Palace will immediately stop, and the two sides will be in a de facto truce. Is this condition acceptable?"
Once the offensive stops, it means that the previous consumption has been in vain. The original demon palace can quickly recover and repair the damage to certain formation nodes, allowing the defense of the Tiandao Barrier Formation to return to its peak state.
The confidant elder said: "I'm afraid this alone is not enough. Some other benefits must be added."
Taoist Master Shuo Yun frowned and said, "Then what other benefits are there?"
"For example, provide them with a batch of spiritual crystals and spiritual stones and allow them to transport external resource reserves back to the sect? Will some of the detained original demon palace assets be returned to them as appropriate?" the confidant elder said.
In the past, due to normal trade relations, the Original Demonic Palace had huge assets stored by many superpowers, including spiritual crystal reserves, real estate such as the Medicine Garden, Lingtian Chamber of Commerce, and Market, as well as various rare resources. etc.
After the war started, these assets were naturally frozen or even misappropriated by the coalition forces, with no intention of returning them to the original Demon Palace.
Of course, the current situation is stronger than that of others. No matter how unwilling it is, Tai Qing Boundless Heaven can only choose to bow its head and give in, spitting out some of the benefits it has gained.
Taoist Master Shuo Yun pondered for a moment and finally relaxed: "Okay, let's arrange to talk to them! As long as it's not too much, we'll admit it."
…
The base of the original Demon Palace.
At this time, Qin Muling was receiving another batch of world origins. The huge green lotus shadow enveloped the entire ocean of origins, absorbing and refining them with ease.
Around the phantom of the green lotus, countless green and purple clouds are steaming, crystal clear, and a large number of chaotic stars are derived. There are also countless golden lanterns and purple lotuses. The mysterious and profound Taoist aura permeates the secret realm of the cave. .
And Su Mengqing, Demon Lord Yuqing, Qin Shuixin... and a large number of senior sisters and sisters were standing by, collecting and refining them to their heart's content, not wanting to miss any of them.
These welfare gifts brought by the Creation Green Lotus are of great benefit to their talents and cultivation. As long as they are applied in one round, they can at least save themselves hundreds of yuanhui of hard work.
As more and more demon palace female cultivators are vying for this opportunity, Qin Muling simply cannot squeeze in. So now Demon Lord Haoyue has to make an arrangement to let the large number of demon palace female cultivators draw lots and take turns to enjoy the benefits, so as not to interfere with each other. There was another conflict, which hurt the harmony.
"... Junior Brother's Divine Soul Dao Body... is really even more exaggerated than the legendary Chaos Return to Ruins! It has absorbed so much of the origin of the world, why does it seem like it can never have enough?"
Saint Qin Shuixin was busy absorbing the golden lantern and purple lotus, and at the same time she did not forget to communicate with the senior sisters around her.
Demon Lord Yuqing hummed and said: "In front of the Creation Qinglian, what does Chaos Return to Ruins mean? I suspect that even if we give him all the world origin reserves in the sect, it may not be able to satisfy him... "
"That's true. In fact, I'm a little curious about where my junior brother's limit is. If he defeats the three thousand prefecture-level worlds outside in the future and gives all the world sources that his family has reserved to his junior brother, I wonder what the result will be?"
A beautiful woman with a beautiful face whispered softly. She was also a powerful person who once held the authority of the sub-sage, so her vision and experience are naturally good.
"Senior sister, I think... Since the junior brother can get such benefits every time he refines the origin of the world, why not give him more? The senior sisters in the sect can come and take advantage of some benefits. This will also Isn’t it more conducive to improving the overall strength of the sect?”
"This matter has nothing to do with us. It can only be decided after the nine Asia Saints discuss it. But I personally think it is right!"
"I really hope to see the day when my junior brother attains enlightenment and becomes a saint as soon as possible! By then, our Holy Palace will be the number one supreme Taoist force in all the realms of the chaotic void!"
"I believe that this day will not be too far away. Then we will have to see how those big worlds deal with themselves. I'm afraid they will have to surrender? If they don't want their own Taoist heritage to be wiped out!"
"Well, that makes sense..."
Many female cultivators were talking about it. Qin Muling allowed them to truly see hope, the hope of eternal transcendence. This was an opportunity incomparable to any benefit.
Now those guys outside want to collude to take Qin Muling away from them. This has undoubtedly touched their biggest weakness. Even if they shed the last drop of blood, they will not give in at all.
As a large amount of the world's original essence is refined by the Qinglian phantom, Qin Muling's internal space is also increasing rapidly. It is already equivalent to the size of the Taixu starry sky before the two worlds were unified, and an independent space-time. There is no difference.
Moreover, the concentration of spiritual energy inside the space is more abundant, and the inherent law system of the great avenue becomes more complex, rigorous and perfect. Now it is not inferior to the primitive demon world outside, which is the environment of the earth-level high-grade world.
In the interior of the world, there are all kinds of landforms, including mountains, lakes, rivers, virgin forests, deserts and Gobi deserts, as well as vast oceans and billions of islands.
Qin Muling silently explored every corner of the vast world. Many treasures of heaven, materials and earth that would only be accumulated when the world opened up have appeared in some hidden areas of this world of time and space, waiting for the destined people to collect them.
"In the future, I will be like Pangu who created the world, and have a big world that belongs entirely to me, right? However, Pangu still died later, so it is a bit ominous to compare this..."
Qin Muling secretly thought that the space in his body has long had the ability to absorb the chaotic energy in the void and nourish and strengthen itself, so it is growing all the time.
Even now, if a monk can practice deep cultivation in it for a long time and understand the unique spiritual charm of Chuangshi Qinglian, the benefits in all aspects will really be endless for three days and three nights. Of course, only the female cultivators in Taixu Xingkong now have this kind of
Super standard treatment.
Due to various considerations, Qin Muling has not yet let the female cultivators in the Original Demon Palace know about the existence of the inner space, nor do the senior sisters from the Meng clan and the Luojia Dynasty.
In the future, Qin Muling will truly take that step and attain the supreme Taoist fruit of Hunyuan Saint. The space within the body can be completely manifested, becoming an unprecedentedly powerful world that exists independently in the chaotic void.
By that time, perhaps the legendary heaven may not be comparable to this big world, because there is no true Supreme Hunyuan Saint in the heaven, and there are only sub-sages and pseudo-sages.
Unknowingly, two days and two nights passed quietly. As the last handful of world origin in the cave sky secret realm disappeared into the depths of the green lotus shadow, Qin Muling slowly finished his work.
The phantom of the green lotus gradually faded away, and the number of chaotic stars, golden lanterns and purple lotuses derived from it also became smaller and smaller, until they disappeared completely.
Many female nuns around them stopped without knowing what to do. After taking advantage of two days and two nights, they also benefited a lot. Many female cultivators broke through one or two major realms on the spot, and their fortunes, blessings, and foundation accumulation were also deeper.
From their standpoint, of course the more benefits, the better, and everyone will be welcome.
"...Junior brother, those guys have come up with new tricks again."
When he opened his eyes, the radiant and graceful Demon Lord Zi Zi came over and hugged him, kissed him, and spoke softly about the things outside.
Qin Muling pondered and said: "If we can really restore the Tiandao Barrier Formation for a while and get back a batch of much-needed resources for the sect, this matter is not non-negotiable, right?"
A truce for a period of time would actually be more beneficial to the Original Demon Palace. Of course, now that the coalition forces are at a disadvantage, it is only natural for our side to take the opportunity to raise the asking price.
"Well, if they are really sincere,"
The noble, charming, graceful and gorgeous Su Mengqing said: "I'm afraid they are thinking of cheating again, or else they are asking for money and spending money. It was originally our own thing, but now it is used by them as a bargaining chip. Really are……"
"Don't worry, let them be arrogant for a while. One day we will get back the capital and profits. They are destined to get nothing!"
Qin Muling smiled and said, he really didn't believe how much waves these superpowers could create. He was getting closer and closer to the supreme realm of Hunyuan Saint. Once that step is successfully taken, no matter how many plots and tricks the other party makes, it will become meaningless.
Demon Lord Zi Zi nodded: "Now Senior Sister has sent people to negotiate with them. Anyway, the initiative in the war lies with us. If we don't offer enough benefits in exchange, they won't be able to get through easily."
Qin Muling nodded and said, "That's fine, let's go to work now!"
"Okay, let's go to the medicine garden first! Recently, the inventory of various natural medicine resources has been consumed a lot. Junior brother, you have to replenish it."
Demon Lord Yuqing said with a smile. Due to the large increase in the number of powerful female alchemists in the sect, the direct consequence is that the production of high-level elixirs has increased, and of course there has been a rapid consumption of medicinal resources.
Qin Muling had no objection to this and left accompanied by his senior sisters. At this time, Demon Lord Haoyue led a group of powerful people to start negotiations with representatives of the coalition forces.
Since the coalition's fierce offensive against the Tiandao Barrier Formation had not stopped at this time, it was naturally impossible for the two sides to sit down and talk face to face, so they only communicated through the air through an innate Hongmeng treasure.
In the palace filled with spiritual energy.
In front of Demon Lord Haoyue and several sub-sages, stood a treasure mirror with a diameter of ten feet and rimmed with dragon and phoenix colorful tassels. Magnificent smoke lingered on the mirror surface, outlining the images of many sub-sages on the coalition side.
This was already the second round of confrontation in the past few days. Due to the tough attitude of the original demon palace and the high price, the elders of the coalition did not dare to make the decision, and ultimately returned without success.
So after discussion, the Yasages at the top of the coalition decided to come and talk in person.
"...Immediately cease all hostilities and return all our frozen and detained assets and disciples. We are not allowed to rob, kill or seize our trading fleets that are out to purchase resources, and are not allowed to carry out any counter-infiltration or subversion activities against our vassal forces. Oppression, blockades, sanctions and other hostile acts, in addition to..."
Wearing a large palace dress with the Lihuang star pattern as black as ink, with her temples held high, Demon Lord Haoyue spoke in a deep voice with a cold and solemn demeanor.
There were forty-six clauses, each of which made the big shots on the coalition side look livid and their eyes cold.
They originally thought that just by giving some symbolic benefits, they would be able to get the senior officials of the Original Demonic Palace to give in, but little did they know that they would not accept this at all.
Now the other party's conditions can't be described even with a lion's mouth. It's simply ignorant of the heaven and earth!
Taoist Master Shuo Yun sneered: "Looking at these conditions, it seems like you have won the battle. Don't you have anyone who can see the situation clearly?"
Demon Lord Haoyue said indifferently: "At least none of our sub-sages have fallen, not even ordinary quasi-sage emperors! On the contrary, how many sub-sages have you replaced?"
"Now that you still want to bargain here, do you still want to change a few more batches of Yasheng to be the master?"
"you……"
Taoist Shuo Yun's face was gloomy, with veins popping out on his forehead. He gritted his teeth and said, "Your insidious and shameless approach has offended all the Taoist forces in the chaotic void. Are you really not afraid that the original demon world will be completely destroyed in the future?" ?"
"Unfortunately, you are not qualified to say such things!"
Demon Lord Haoyue refuted unceremoniously: "Now you are the defeated party. You are in danger and have no way to survive, so you come to beg us for our help!"
"Fellow Taoist Shuo Yun, since you are here to ask for help, you must have a begging attitude and sincerity. At least I have never seen a beggar who is arrogant when begging for food!"
"That's unreasonable!"
Immediately, Taoist Master Shuo Yun couldn't hold it in any longer, and he stood up and said through gritted teeth: "If we are determined and attack regardless of the cost, you devils won't be able to hold on for much longer!"
Demon Lord Haoyue sneered: "Friend Shuo Yun, the reason why you are still alive today is because we don't want to kill you for the time being. Otherwise, how many days do you think you can last under the curse of the Creation Green Lotus?"
"you……"
Taoist Master Shuo Yun's face suddenly changed: "So that curse was really caused by Chuangshi Qinglian? What methods did you use to confuse Him and make Him help you so wholeheartedly?"
"The reason is simple,"
Demon Lord Haoyue smiled sweetly, and touched his flat belly with his silky jade hands: "Because Chuangshi Qinglian is a Taoist companion of this palace! The same is true for the senior sisters and junior sisters of this palace!"
Taoist Master Shuo Yun: "..."
This time, not only him, but also the expressions of the high-ranking officials of the coalition forces who had not spoken had all changed.
They have never come into contact with the incarnation of the Creation Green Lotus, so they still have a sense of luck. But today, because of the words of Demon Lord Haoyue, some of the past speculations have been confirmed.
Chuangshi Qinglian really likes beauty, so these shameless women from the Original Demon Palace really seduce him personally regardless of their status? !
It is tolerable, but what is unbearable!
Sitting next to him, Taoist Master Miaoyuan looked cold. If eyes could kill, perhaps Demon Lord Haoyue would be pierced by thousands of arrows in her eyes.
No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't understand why Chuangshi Qinglian chose these shameless female devils? If you really like beauty, wouldn’t my Taiqing Wuliangtian’s beauty be inferior?
"... Fellow Daoist Haoyue, you are using this despicable and shameless method to seduce and control the Creation Qinglian, which is an act that ignores the overall situation and all the Taoist forces in the Chaos Void!"
Taoist Huayang, who was sitting silently next to him, frowned and said, if the incarnation of the Creation Qinglian really has feelings for these female demons, this matter will become even more difficult to handle.
"So? You are here to besiege our primitive demon world?"
Demon Lord Haoyue said in a sarcastic tone: "I know you are very unwilling to do so, but unfortunately this is an unchangeable fact. He himself is willing to stay here, can you stop him?"
Anger and protest without strength are meaningless. Since the Heavenly Dao Barrier Formation of the Original Demonic Palace cannot be broken, one can only face reality and make wise compromises.
"If we agree to your conditions, can you let go of your control over Creation Green Lotus so that we can share the opportunity?"
Taoist Master Fengyi of Yuxiang Great World asked.
Demon Lord Haoyue sneered slightly: "What are you talking about? Creation Qinglian is our core strategic interest, there is no room for negotiation, so don't have any wishful thinking!"
Taoist Master Shuo Yun said coldly: "That means there is no need to discuss?"
From their standpoint, the opportunity of Chuangshi Qinglian is also an issue that cannot be compromised. If they cannot get the desired results in this regard, what is the point of this unprecedented scale of war?
"Not negotiable!"
Demon Lord Haoyue smiled calmly: "This time in your Taiqing Infinite Heaven, hundreds of great masters have been recruited. Their time is running out, right? After they fall, perhaps a new batch of powerful masters who have been recruited will What if it becomes three hundred or five hundred people?"
Taoist Master Shuo Yun's face looks as ugly as possible. Do these female demons want to focus on their Taiqing Boundless Heaven? However, they haven't had any suitable means to deal with it. Is this really unreasonable?
He did not doubt the threat of Demon Lord Haoyue. If Chuangshi Qinglian listened to their bewitchment, Taiqing Wuliangtian's losses would be unimaginable. Once the sect's strength declined significantly, he might lose his position as the leader of the Taoist sect.
Thunder World
Kassapa Buddha sighed and said slowly: "Fellow Taoist Haoyue, we can consider accepting all your conditions, as long as you agree to one thing."
"whats the matter?"
Demon Lord Haoyue stared at him deeply. The bald donkeys in Buddhism were not good people, and even she did not dare to take them lightly.
Taoist Master Fengyi immediately said: "This is very simple, as long as you can let us see Chuangshi Qinglian and talk to him alone!"
