"No! These aren't my talismans at all! You've lost them!" Although the United States agents couldn't tell the difference between the Twelve Talismans that had been switched, the Shendu knew instantly that they weren't his talismans.
After all, although these talismans also possess magical power, they were not separated from the Shendu. In fact, because these talismans are controlled through Chakra, even if the Shendu wanted to absorb the power of these fake talismans, he would not be able to do so.
However, having regained his soul's freedom, even if the Shendu cannot restore his power through talismans, he can already perform many actions.
So, the Shendu set his sights on the eighth door of the Pangu Box. He wanted to use this door, which was originally used to release himself, to release another demon. In this way, they could combine the power of the three demons, and with their help, the Shendu felt confident that he could defeat Bai Sui.
After all, these demons know the workings of this world, that good and evil are always opposites and in unity. They know that they have not become stronger, but have even become weaker, so good should not have increased. Even if it has not weakened, there should never be a mage strong enough to suppress multiple demons on his own.
However, the door to the Shendu was located in Hong Kong, and the Shendu himself was not confident that he could open the door directly without going through Bai Sui, so he devised a plan with Bai Tsa and Xiao Fung.
Let Xiao Fung cooperate with Bai Tsa to unleash a tsunami powerful enough to swallow the world's highest peak. This would not only flood California but also attract the attention of the world, especially Bai Sui. Afterward, the Shendu would secretly go to Hong Kong and open the eighth door.
In light of the previous demons' failures, Bai Sui instructed Xiao Fung and Bai Tsa not to go in their true forms, but to use True Magic and arrays to hide themselves in the back so that they would not be discovered by the enemy.
It's also thanks to the demons that have been released now, namely the Water Demon and the Sky Demon. One of them is skilled in True Magic, and the other is skilled in setting up formations. They are among the few demons who do not rely on innate authority to fight.
In the days that followed, although those United States politicians used various channels to send messages to the outside world, intending for his former allies and underlings to come to the country as soon as possible so that the country could send forces to the United States to exorcise the United States.
However, those underlings all pretended to be deaf and dumb, waiting quietly for the United States to experience this disaster. As for the so-called tsunami mentioned by the United States, all countries are taking it very seriously.
Those United States politicians, seeing that none of their former allies were willing to lend a hand, could only rage in impotence, with no other options. As for directly contacting the Chinese government, sorry, they simply couldn't do it. After all, those devils knew that Bai Sui was now living in China and were keeping a close watch on that matter.
So on October 1st, a massive tsunami suddenly rose from the West Blue of the United States, crossing the entire Pacific Ocean and heading towards the country.
This sudden tsunami was detected in time by global satellites, and this phenomenon immediately reminded everyone of the devil, especially those vassals who had previously received messages from the United States.
However, after seeing the target of the tsunami, they did not choose to stop, after all, no one wants another superpower that can oppress them to appear above them.
This phenomenon was naturally noticed by the domestic authorities immediately, but they did not immediately seek Bai Sui's help. After all, the power of the domestic courts was not weak, especially after the addition of the great mage, Old Man. Even without considering Bai Sui, the domestic courts could now crush the world in terms of magic.
Through numerous mages who had inscribed formations throughout the country in advance, a defensive barrier Tongtian was erected at the border of the country's sea area.
This barrier serves a dual purpose: to repel and to dissipate force. On one hand, controversial True Magic has a natural aversion to evil, which can completely expel external demonic power. Afterward, the True Magic barrier can channel the force that hits it into the sea, thus naturally dissipating the force.
The moment they saw the barrier rise, Japan panicked. After all, when the United States sought help, they hadn't contacted this wolf at all. In addition, many of Japan's institutions and equipment were controlled by the United States, so the information they received was very outdated.
It wasn't until after the tsunami had passed the Hawaiian Islands that Japan received the news, but by then it was too late. Furthermore, the United States had intentionally closed Japan's airports and ports beforehand, so even if they wanted to escape, it was too late.
Previously, they believed that since the country couldn't handle this tsunami, Bai Sui would definitely step in to eliminate the demon and make the tsunami disappear.
As a result, the country is now exhibiting a posture of full-scale defense. Although the world does not yet know whether this True Magic barrier can actually stop the tsunami, at least Japan knows that they will be the first to succumb to it.
The opening of this barrier directly disrupted Shendu's plans. After all, he was the embodiment of evil and could not bypass the True Magic barrier to reach Hong Kong. He could only abandon the body he had possessed and escape in soul form.
What followed was a real-life sinking of Japan, witnessed by the entire world. Thanks to the intervention of the Japanese, the entire northern region of Japan no longer had to worry about being hit by the tsunami.
What followed was the collision between the tsunami and the barrier. Towering waves crashed violently against the barrier, instantly expelling the demonic power in the seawater, but the seawater itself was a real, tangible force.
Tens of millions of tons of seawater pressed down on the barrier, which collapsed after only flashing a few times. Although it blocked a lot of seawater, a massive amount of seawater still poured in.
The Shendu, who was already flying in the air in his soul form, saw an opportunity and quickly began flying towards Hong Kong. This time, without the obstruction of the formation, the Shendu passed through very easily.
However, before the seawater could move even a nautical mile after breaking through the barrier, it was swept away by a beam of blue light surging from the homeland.
This was Bai Sui directly manipulating the water-attribute Qi, easily taking control of the seawater that no one else could control. Instead of directly pushing the seawater outwards, he picked through it, leaving behind a large number of living creatures and pushing away a large amount of seawater and silt, instantly calming the tsunami.
As for the Shendu, it can only be said that the seal covering his soul saved him; otherwise, that massive amount of Qi would have torn his soul apart in an instant.
After Bai Sui's research over this period, he has made some discoveries: these demons, after being sealed by the Eight Immortals, have been intentionally weakening their strength.
Because good and evil in this world are balanced, there is a corresponding amount of good for every amount of evil. When the power of evil weakens, good will inevitably weaken in the future.
Since evil is mainly concentrated in the eight demons, while good is distributed throughout the human world, the individual acts of good become weaker in comparison to the weakening of the demons.
What the demons didn't expect was that, in order to balance good and evil, the world actually threw some of the evil that the demons had deliberately weakened onto the human world, making evil more prevalent there. In this way, although good was also weakened, it wasn't as severe as the demons had imagined.
Of course, there were also many great mages who made voluntary sacrifices to maintain the balance between good and evil. It was their resolute willingness to die that prevented the demon's conspiracy from succeeding.
Although his soul wasn't torn apart by the Qi, the Shendu's plan was ruined because he was directly blasted away by the Qi and flew to the center of the Pacific Ocean.
The country immediately sent people to express their gratitude to Bai Sui, and also dispatched its own troops to investigate its own losses.
After a thorough investigation, it was discovered that the losses were significant, and a large amount of money would be needed to rebuild its island of Japan and its vassal state of Ryukyu.
No one in the world dared to say much, after all, although Russia was not the main target of the tsunami, it also suffered heavy losses in this disaster, and the entire East Blue coast was in ruins.
Needless to say, the United States not only lost a large amount of land, but also destroyed all its aircraft carriers and Marine Base in the Pacific Ocean. If the world didn't know that the United States is now actually controlled by a devil, its former enemies would definitely pounce on it and take a big bite.
Of course, they haven't been idle. For example, the United States troops stationed in their countries are now their property and no longer obey United States orders.
When the Chinese were clearing out the islands of Japan, they felt a great sense of regret, as the islanders had looted so many treasures that were now destroyed by the tsunami.
Those who came to clean up the damaged National Treasure had extremely complex feelings, a mixture of joy and sorrow, almost driving themselves insane.
However, Bai Sui later took out the Horse Talisman and handed it over to the country, allowing them to use the power of the talisman to restore the damaged National Treasure to their original state, thus leaving only a joyous atmosphere in the country.
Although many so-called public intellectuals and those advocating for reflection stood up and sang dissenting songs during this process, the country, which was not under external pressure at the moment, made great efforts to find all these people and arrange their proper fates according to their actions. For a time, the people of the country felt that the environment was much quieter.
This caused those with ulterior motives to remain hidden, because although they loved money, they weren't stupid and knew when to do what.
Bai Sui's actions directly demonstrated the country's Dharma Power to the world, and Bai Tsa Xiao Fung, who instigated the tsunami, was equally shocked.
It's important to know that this tsunami was the combined masterpiece of two demons. Bai Tsa summoned and manipulated hundreds of millions of tons of seawater through an array, creating a massive tsunami. To accelerate the tsunami's movement, Xiao Fung created a hurricane after it, propelling the tsunami forward.
It can be said that this tsunami was the strongest power that these two demons could unleash while in their sealed state.
Such power couldn't even push the tsunami into the country, and the demons were somewhat resigned to their fate. Even Bai Tsa and Xiao Fung had the idea of ruling across the sea from Bai Sui.
After all, the strength that Bai Sui is showing now is not much different from that of the Eight Immortals who sealed them back then. Although they were not afraid of Bai Sui in their prime, they were completely innocent in front of Bai Sui when they were sealed.
So Bai Sui remained silent, and the two demons pretended not to be there. The countries around the world also dared not say anything about this matter, after all, they were afraid that the United States would unleash another tsunami like this.
They don't have such powerful magical barriers, nor do they have Bai Sui to back them up. Even if the power of this tsunami were reduced by half, it would still be a catastrophic disaster for them.
Thus, the world maintained a strange balance. Bai Sui was actually waiting, waiting to learn more of the world's magic, waiting for the power in the country to reach a higher level. Bai Sui hoped that after he took action to completely eliminate those demons, the country could stand at the top of the world based on its own strength.
Then Bai Sui can leave this world with peace of mind. After all, he won't stay in this world forever; he will leave sooner or later to continue his new journey.
Of course, this is only one aspect. Bai Sui is also waiting for an opportunity to completely separate good and evil in the world, which is the future appearance of the Drago.
The Drago is a new demon outside of the eight great demons. His appearance will inevitably force a change in good and evil. At that time, in order to pacify the rising evil, the world will inevitably strengthen the power of good.
Bai Sui's idea is to restrict all mages and even weaken the good in the world, so that the gap between good and evil will continue to widen. Bai Sui will try his best to keep this power within himself, and ultimately promote the separation of good and evil in the world.
According to the various documents Bai Sui has seen, the world will not stop the separation of good and evil in the first half, which is the perfect time to use this power. When it comes to the last step, the world still resists and withdraws all the blessings, Bai Sui will use his own power to make up for it, and in this way, there is a possibility of success.
Although Bai Sui and the other two demons were unwilling to take action, the Shendu did not share the same sentiment. He wanted to regain his strength and restore his physical body; he truly did not want to continue drifting through the world like a Spectre.
However, since all twelve talismans are currently in Bai Sui's hands, the Shendu doesn't dare to directly snatch them. So he plans to rely on other powers, such as the Oni Mask and the Book of Ages.
Compared to the divine artifact, the Book of Ages, the Shendu preferred the Oni Mask. After all, the price of using the Book of Ages was too high. He only wanted to restore his body and power and did not want to pay such a high price.
