The Loophole in the Star-Picking Plan!
As an Evil Spirit, he actually thinks in the same way as the Evil Shadow Continent when considering problems.
Evil Shadow Continent is truly a place where the strong prey on the weak.
Friends... alliances—it all depends on you being strong enough.
Look at the fate of the Strength Barbarian Evil Spirits. The Strength Barbarian Evil Lord didn't even pass the seventh day after his death before the Strength Barbarian Evil Spirits was divided up by other factions.
No one mourned the death of the Strength Barbarian Evil Lord.
Those who usually swore brotherhood with the Strength Barbarian Evil Lord were truly ruthless when it came to attacking the Strength Barbarian Evil Spirits!
To the modern-day Wu Man, the Evil Spirit Clan really do resemble a pack of wild beasts...
They only crave resources; they have no concept of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, or trustworthiness whatsoever!
In the Evil Shadow Continent, nothing is off-limits; if there is, it's because the resources provided aren't enough!
However, in the Vast Heaven Holy Land, everyone has their own bottom line, and there are things they will and will not do!
Therefore, no matter how powerful Evil Shadow Continent was in the past, in terms of its nature, Evil Shadow Continent has always been an uncivilized land.
Wu Man is no longer the clueless little guy who just arrived at Vast Heaven Holy Land.
Having spent so much time in the Vast Heaven Holy Land, Wu Man had inquired with everyone he knew.
Initially, although the Vast Heaven Holy Land harbored some hostility towards the Evil Shadow Continent, this hostility was based on the ferocious nature of the Evil Spirits.
In the era of the Four Continents, almost every major war was related to Evil Spirits.
The Evil Spirits are like a pack of mad dogs, frantically devouring everything in their path. Are they to simply be eaten if they don't fight back?
How many major battles were initiated by Evil Spirits? How many people who shouldn't have died did die in battle?
Even so, the Vast Heaven Holy Land's initial attitude towards the Evil Shadow Continent was no different from its attitude towards other continents.
Look at the Demon Star Continent Demon Star Continent. Back then, the Ape Clan clamored to conquer the Blazing Sun Great Road. After Yuan Zheng's death, the Wolf King took charge of the Demon Star Continent. Did the Vast Heaven Holy Land ever invade Demon Star Continent?
Did Blazing Sun Great Road even try to gain any advantage through his relationship with the Wolf King?
Not only did not they receive help, the Wolf King even received assistance from the Vast Heaven Holy Land time and time again.
Now, thanks to the cooperation with the Vast Heaven Holy Land, the Demon Star Continent is extremely wealthy, and it has completely accepted everything.
The same goes for the Spirit Beast Continent. The four clan leaders initially thought about how to extract resources from there... but what about now? The Ming Clan Head Leader and the Clan Head Ning are now insanely wealthy...
The Clan Head Hua and Clan Head Cui worried every day about how to encounter a stroke of good fortune amidst impending disaster, and how to legitimately obtain the help of the Vast Heaven Holy Land so they could take off together.
Today, across the Three Continents, the Demon Race Human Race, and the Spirit Race coexist peacefully.
Normally, everyone teams up and trades together, and the Three Continents, which were originally three small entities, have now become a large whole.
Although everyone is secretly thinking about how to get more resources and there are various competitions, these competitions are all normal competitions.
Unlike the Evil Shadow Continent, which from the very beginning only thought about how to annex the Three Continents and become the ruler!
Take a look at the Vast Heaven Holy Land. Its Vast Heaven Holy Land strength is overwhelming, even if we consider the entire Three Continents or even the Four Continents.
But has the Vast Heaven Holy Land ever considered annexing the Three Continents and becoming Three Continents ruler?
Wu Man always believed that the big shots of Vast Heaven Holy Land were the most clear-headed beings in the world.
Once some people become powerful, their first thought is to rule the world... to make the whole world kneel before them and speak to them.
The Vast Heaven Holy Land clearly has the strength to unify the Three Continents, yet it has never done so!
But if you look across the Three Continents, who would deny the dominant position of the Vast Heaven Holy Land?
The Vast Heaven Holy Land did not establish any laws for the Three Continents, nor did it force the Three Continents to treat it as their master and worship it.
However, every move made by the Vast Heaven Holy Land subtly influences the changes across the entire Three Continents.
Vast Heaven Holy Land never claims to be the ruler of the Three Continents, but in the hearts of the people of the Three Continents, Vast Heaven Holy Land is the only sovereign.
Only after arriving at the Vast Heaven Holy Land did Wu Man understand what true wisdom meant.
I must say, Senior Brother Xinghe is truly wise!
True dominance is not about how ruthless your methods are, how many resources you control, or how you force everyone to submit to you.
The true master is someone who doesn't need to claim to be the master, yet always stands at the highest point in everyone's sight.
Vast Heaven Holy Land competes with outsiders for anything, yet it always stands at the very top!
The Wu Man ignorant of history; many sacred sites have appeared throughout history... So why did some of these sacred sites decline so quickly?
Because after these forces became holy lands, their first thought was not how to stabilize themselves, but to conquer everywhere, hoping that the whole world would submit to them. The end result was that they may have become the masters of the world for a time, but from a certain perspective, they also stood on the opposite side of the whole world.
After all, who the hell wants to speak while kneeling every day?
So, even if you outwardly submit to those who want you to kneel before them, can you honestly say you've never considered rebelling?
On the contrary, the Vast Heaven Holy Land does not have this concern. The Vast Heaven Holy Land treats everyone equally and never asks anyone to speak on their knees. In fact, no matter who is in trouble, the Vast Heaven Holy Land will stand up for you immediately.
One is when everyone kneels beside you, worshipping you as their master, but secretly plots to stab you in the back and take your place.
One is when everyone surrounds you, treating you as their backer, thinking about how to cooperate with you so that their own families can also take off. Wu Man now understands very clearly which is better.
It was precisely because Wu Man saw through the true nature of the Vast Heaven Holy Land he stayed there without hesitation. Wu Man knew that the unification of the Four Continents was an inevitable trend, and even if he could buy two hundred years for the Evil Shadow Continent, what would be the point?
Two hundred years from now, can the Evil Shadow Continent stand against the Vast Heaven Holy Land?
Isn't that ridiculous?
Two hundred years from now, the power of the Vast Heaven Holy Land will far exceed the imagination of the Evil Shadow Continent.
Two hundred years from now, the gap between the Evil Shadow Continent and Vast Heaven Holy Land will only widen further.
To put it bluntly, the Vast Heaven Holy Land can now completely crush the Evil Shadow Continent...
If it really happens two hundred years from now, even without the Vast Heaven Holy Land, any random continent could easily crush the Evil Shadow Continent.
Because the Three Continents have now embarked on a path of peaceful development and common progress for all, while the Evil Shadow Continent is still clinging to its outdated ideas and thinking about how to annex other forces.
In Wu Man's view, the merger of the Four Continents would definitely cause considerable losses to the Evil Shadow Continent, since the various Evil Spirit factions now control resources beyond their capabilities.
As Senior Brother Ma Liang aptly put it, when the resources you possess are not commensurate with your strength, those resources will inevitably slip away from you in some other way.
Therefore, with the merger of the Four Continents, the resources controlled by the various factions of the Evil Spirits will definitely be greatly reduced.
However, in the long run, with the merger of the Four Continents and the restoration of their laws, the dream of Main God is no longer a distant dream, and Spirit Power has become incredibly abundant.
This is a tremendous good thing for all cultivators and even ordinary people in the world.
Only if the various Evil Lords ' ability to rule the Evil Shadow Continent decreases, everything else will develop in a positive direction.
Therefore, the so-called struggle between the Four Continents was never a battle between the Evil Spirits of the Evil Shadow Continent and the Three Continents. Rather, it was a struggle between the nine Evil Lords, or the Nine Divisions of Evil Spirits, in order to avoid losing control and to enjoy the offerings of the entire Evil Shadow Continent, and the Three Continents.
Wu Man now sees things very clearly!
Wu Man tried to persuade Zang Ling for a long time... but Zang Ling never considered himself an Evil Spirit; he only believed himself to be Heart-Devouring Evil Spirits.
He kept shouting that he was doing it for the Evil Spirit Clan, but in reality, he was only Heart-Devouring Evil Spirits, or rather, for his own benefit. After all, he was the Heart-Devouring Holy Son of Evil Spirits, he was high above others, and he could obtain resources by crushing other Evil Spirits. He was simply unwilling to give up his superiority.
Wu Man knew that with the merger of the Four Continents, all the Evil Spirits in the entire Evil Shadow Continent, except for the Seven Evil Spirit Divisions, would definitely benefit.
So what made you, the shameless Zang Ling Wu Man, call me a traitor?
I, Wu Man, may seem to have surrendered, but I, Wu Man, am now contributing to the rebirth of the entire Evil Spirits. And what about you?
Zang Ling scoffed at the fallacies and heresies of the Wu Man.
The Zang Ling said that the Wu Man had been brainwashed, brainwashed by the despicable people of the Vast Heaven Holy Land!
However, Zang Ling knows that Wu Man, you won't be able to keep jumping around for long. You deceive your superiors and subordinates, you are shameless. Do you think the Evil Lords don't know what you have done in the Vast Heaven Holy Land?
Don't be impatient, you Wu Man. My Star-Picking Plan is about to begin. What nonsense about Chu Xinghe's unparalleled benevolence?
He's nothing but a fame-seeker!
Once I use you Wu Man, to bring Chu Xinghe back to the Evil Shadow Continent, I, Zang Ling, will become the new Holy Maiden of the Evil Shadow Continent!
As for you, Wu Man, you will surely be nailed to the pillar of shame, and you will be tormented by all the terrifying spells of our evil Evil Spirits, you traitor!
In the following days, Zang Ling prepared everything every day, and finally, he adjusted Zang Ling to be in the best possible condition.
Zang Ling did not rush to make a move because he had discovered a serious flaw in the Zang Ling -Star-Picking Plan during his reflections over the past few days: he could indeed control the Evil God's Fang to forcibly open the power of the Skull of the Evil God and then create a passage back to the Evil Shadow Continent.
The problem is... normally, only one person can enter this passage, because an Evil God Relics can only take one person at a time.
Even considering that the seal might dissipate after entering the passage, even with the possibility of his own Evil God's Fangs being removed, only two people are allowed to enter the passage at a time.
This time, the biggest problem is that all three of us need to enter the passage at the same time.
If he were to pull Chu Xinghe through the passage to the Evil Shadow Continent, and Wu Man were outside, the best outcome of the plan would be for Wu Man to forcibly control the Skull of the Evil God to close the passage, and Wu Man would return with the Evil God's Fangs...
But Zang Ling knew very well that if he only returned with the Evil God's Fang... what the hell would that mean?
Wu Man wasn't deceiving himself; he truly was now number one on the kill list in the Evil Shadow Continent...
If he took Chu Xinghe back with him, it would be defying fate. But if he went back, he'd be chopped up in a heartbeat!
Therefore, Wu Man cannot stay outside; he will rescue Chu Xinghe.
Therefore, to defy fate, it is necessary to bring Wu Man in with them, so that Wu Man has no chance to manipulate the Skull of the Evil God from the outside and close the passage.
But right now, he only has two Evil God Relics, which is not enough to take three people with him...
Just as Zang Ling was pondering how to solve this problem, Zang Ling suddenly found an opportunity!
