Cooperation Is the Right Path
At this point, both the Shi Chen and the cause and effect became clear: Qing Xuanzi was about to take on a follower.
Having taken a liking to Luo Hou, he secretly transmitted his voice to Qing Xuanzi, saying, "We can help you leave the Xuanji Demon God to us, how about it?"
The Shi Chen Demon God had figured it out; he was practically offering resources to Qing Xuanzi.
He was just a simple transportation team leader.
The reason for proposing to protect Xuanji Demon God is that Xuanji is their strategist, and they still need to rely on him to plan many things.
Secondly, this happened just in time. Qing Xuanzi subdued Luo Hou as his subordinate, and Shi Chen preserved Xuanji Demon God. Both of them were Grand Ultimate Great Luo, and Luo Hou was even slightly higher. In a one-for-one exchange, neither of them would suffer a loss.
"Okay." Qing Xuanzi was a straightforward person and agreed immediately.
Just as Qing Xuanzi agreed, Shi Chen spoke up, "Luo Hou, come on, since you're going to die anyway today, you might as well just give up."
Luo Hou glared at Hongjun with resentment, then hardened his heart and roared, "If you're going to die, then die! Quickly!"
Shi Chen did not make a move; he merely rebounded back following Luo Hou's force.
Luo Hou could no longer withstand the attack and flew a great distance away, spitting out blood like a fountain.
Luo Hou struggled to his feet, intending to continue, but suddenly seemed to remember something.
He looked at Qing Xuanzi in disbelief.
Qing Xuanzi smiled and said, "Congratulations, you survived a single attack."
Luo Hou's feelings were quite complicated, like a rollercoaster ride, very exciting.
What seemed like a doomed situation suddenly turned out to be untenable.
The important thing is that he was hit on the head by a windfall.
Luo Hou chuckled foolishly and said, "Qing Xuanzi Heavenly Venerable, you don't need to go to so much trouble. As long as you say the word, I will definitely go with you. Even the two guys on the other side can't stop me."
"Alright, you can be happy now. The show is almost over, it's our turn." Qing Xuanzi saw that his two Heavenly Dao clones were already beaten to a pulp, and after another big beating, they would probably be ready to start the feast.
"Master, according to the original plan, you should remain in the center to provide support at any time. The three senior brothers should each find their own opponents. Luo Hou, when you see the lich appear, help them deal with the Grand Ultimate Great Luo level."
After Qing Xuanzi finished giving his orders, the two Heavenly Dao clones in front of him let out a miserable scream and met their demise.
"Make your move." Qing Xuanzi gave the order, and Hongjun and the Three Pure Ones arrived at the battlefield in one step. Luo Hou was much slower. By the time he arrived, the Demon Clan, the Witch Race, the human race, and the Three Sects Disciples were already shouting and starting to work.
"Qing Xuanzi, what about what you just promised?"
Qing Xuanzi didn't speak, but with a wave of his hand, he summoned the Xuanji Demon God.
"Take it." Qing Xuanzi tossed the Xuanji Demon God like trash to Shi Chen's feet. Shi Chen didn't even glance at it before putting the Xuanji Demon God into his Time Spiritual Treasure.
"Qing Xuanzi, we don't really have any deep-seated hatred for each other, do we?" Yinguo stared at Qing Xuanzi with her peach blossom eyes full of water.
Qing Xuanzi knew that force wouldn't work, so he tried a softer approach.
"That's right, it was you who were always making trouble for me," Qing Xuanzi said, echoing the words of the Karma Demon God.
"That was our fault, how about we apologize?"
"Fine, I accept your apology."
The cause and effect were overjoyed; if they could make peace with Qing Xuanzi, that would be the best outcome.
"Now that we've laid this all out, how about we cooperate?"
"Sure, but let's make this clear beforehand: I won't give up on the ones mentioned earlier."
"It's alright, it's alright. It's just a few Chaos Demon God and a few Great Thousand Worlds. Chaos has no shortage of these. If you think it's not enough, just let us know and we can send you some more."
"Oh, is that so kind? You two should get to the point. I can't accept this favor without having done anything for it."
"Then I'll tell you. For example, the foreign Heavenly Dao, and how to pass the sacrificial ceremony, are things we want to know."
"Hehe, easy, easy. So, what are your bargaining chips?"
"What are the secrets of the Heavens Chaos?"
"Not enough, far from enough."
"And then add a secret realm of the Great Thousand Worlds level?"
"Still not quite there."
"..."
Qing Xuanzi and Ying Guo started negotiating on the spot, one bargaining and the other haggling.
Soon, Qing Xuanzi and the Karma Demon God reached a specific agreement on the terms.
The Shi Chen of the event was not delayed; to show sincerity, the bargaining chips were handed over first.
Seeing that the other party was straightforward, Qing Xuanzi also happily explained the relevant information about the Heavenly Dao, and even revealed some information about the Dao Immortal Realm.
Of course, he also explained how to get through the Daoist ritual and promised that he would inform them if he decided to enter the Dao Burial Ground.
Whether they go or not is their own choice.
Thus, the group of Chaos Demon God in front were completely unaware that they had been betrayed, and continued to work diligently.
When the Three Pure Ones faced three Chaos Demon God of Grand Ultimate, the first one to defeat them was Tongtian.
Next came Laozi and Yuanshi.
On the Chaos Demon God's side, upon seeing the three big shots meet their demise, he panicked and frantically searched for the Xuanji Demon God.
Dijun and Taiyi Yi successfully ambushed a Chaos Demon God Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.
It was called a sneak attack, but it was actually a lucky break.
When Yuanshi destroyed a Grand Ultimate, the unfortunate Chaos Demon God was caught in the crossfire and suffered severe damage.
That's how Dijun and Taiyi sneak attack.
The Witch Race panicked when they saw that the Demon Clan had already captured a Grand Ultimate Great Luo.
They all revealed their trump cards and started setting off firecrackers.
Once it was released, things spiraled out of control; bombs were everywhere, and the Chaos Demon God was left dizzy and disoriented by the explosions.
In his haste, Taiyi yelled, "Barbarian, take it easy, leave some for us!"
The Witch Race's trump cards are truly formidable; they're practically a reaping machine on the battlefield.
"Taiyi, stop holding back, let's blow it up too."
"Wilderness, we humans will also start bombing."
"Guangchengzi, load the bomb."
"..."
The Witch Race set a good example, and other forces became anxious and began to follow suit.
In an instant, the entire battlefield was engulfed in flames, with explosions coming one after another without stopping.
The cause and effect and Shi Chen released by Qing Xuanzi in the distance were astonished.
He said blankly, "What the hell is this? Can anyone tell me that self-exposure can be done like this?"
Then, glancing at Qing Xuanzi who was grinning to the side, he couldn't help but feel that his previous decision had been incredibly wise.
If Qing Xuanzi has this method, he can probably use it too, plus his strange clone technique.
Even without the protection of the Great Dao, he would have a headache fighting him one-on-one.
After all, a pure self-destruct attack is too brutal.
Just as the great battle was about to end amidst the sound of firecrackers, a colossal creature suddenly flew out from the Great Thousand Worlds.
It spewed out jet-black flames, burning the clones that hadn't yet had a chance to self-destruct.
The firecracker barrage was immediately halted.
Not only that, countless similar behemoths followed, catching the Primordial World completely off guard.
If Hongjun and the others hadn't reacted quickly and erected a defensive formation in time, the battle might have turned around.
In the distance, Qing Xuanzi muttered to himself in disbelief, "This is not scientific. It is clearly a metaphysical warship, so how come there is a scientific warship? It looks like it is at least level nine or higher."
