The Stick and the Carrot: Stirring Up Enthusiasm
The void rifts here will gradually disappear over time.
Even if Xue Lang were to summon a large number of Blood Devil during this period, the number would still be limited.
Moreover, Blood Devil don't all huddle together; similar to Human Race, they gather in different places.
With these factors in mind, the number that can be gathered in a short period of time will be even smaller.
In this case, the effect is still very limited.
However, if Xue Lang were to take this teleportation array there...
As long as the teleportation array is not shut down, it can continuously output power.
Furthermore, the destination that this teleportation array will take you to can be specified by yourself.
As long as one is teleported to the Five Symbols Sect's territory, one can use the Myriad Phenomena Slaughter Array to kill within the Saint Realm.
But it would be much more efficient than it is now.
Xue Lang listened to what Lu Changzhi said, and seemed to think of something. He glanced at Zhou Changshou next to him and made a guess in his mind.
This sounds like he's planning to use his Blood Devil members for something.
It's very likely related to alchemy, since Human Race seem to be able to refine almost anything.
But once you enter this teleportation array, it's very likely you won't be able to return.
Such an action, however, is undoubtedly a betrayal to the Blood Devil Race Clan.
Upon realizing this, Xue Lang's heart stirred slightly.
Right now, there's no need to think about that too much.
Let's prioritize our own safety. As for the rest, it's just a verbal agreement, and the Devil Race is so vast, there's always another possibility.
He immediately spoke, saying:
"Don't worry, brother, I promise I won't let you down."
As soon as he finished speaking, a selection option popped up in front of Lu Changzhi.
"Faced with your request, Xue Lang harbors a dualistic and disobedient attitude. What is your choice?"
"I. The Demon Who Disobeyed Orders, its head has been cleaved off. [Reward: Saint Rank Peak Grade Artifact - Skull-Splitting Body-Sundering Saber *1.]"
"II. False sincerity, indicating understanding and no further action. [Reward: Special item - False Heavenly Dao Oath *1.]"
"Third, use both the carrot and the stick to motivate. [Reward: Special item - Incomplete Ancient Devil Scroll *1.]"
"Have you made a choice?"
Lu Changzhi was slightly surprised.
But after glancing at the notification, I couldn't help but shake my head.
"A two-faced attitude, indeed..."
He wasn't too surprised by this.
If Xue Lang were truly loyal to him because of these things, that would be what he found unbelievable.
However, the fact that a choice was triggered was a pleasant surprise.
At that moment, Lu Changzhi looked at the several options.
The first option is practically the same as killing him outright.
A quick glance at the reward revealed a knife, but the blade was reinforced with extremely hard materials. It was said to be able to cleave even body-refining cultivators from head to groin in two with a single strike.
Aside from that, there's nothing particularly unique about it.
Lu Changzhi ignored it.
After all, Xue Lang still needs to live for now.
Then came the second one.
"This reward is quite good."
Lu Changzhi's eyes lit up slightly:
[False Heavenly Dao Oath]: A special item. It is well known that oaths of Heavenly Dao cannot be broken. Anyone who swears an oath by Heavenly Dao must keep their word, otherwise they will face Heavenly Dao's punishment. This item allows one to make a Heavenly Dao oath, creating only a show of force, which can be easily broken without punishment.
"If this were used to deceive people, it would be incredibly effective."
Lu Changzhi recalled the experience left behind by the sect's patriarch.
The more widely known something is, the more room there is for manipulation.
However, when it comes to the realm of Heavenly Dao, this operation is truly unbelievable.
"It's a pity, it's this option."
Lu Changzhi shook his head secretly.
Pretending not to see it is obviously not an option, especially since he was already taking some precautions in the first place.
Otherwise, if Xue Lang were to send over Devil Envoy or even higher-level Devil Race, the killing formation would be ineffective, and he would have to waste his energy and time dealing with it.
Alternatively, if Xue Lang simply does nothing and seals the teleportation array, then he won't gain anything from the extraordinary teleportation array and will instead lose it.
At that moment, Lu Changzhi looked at the last option.
"The stick is well-prepared, but as for the carrot..."
After a moment's thought, Lu Changzhi looked at the reward options.
[Incomplete Ancient Devil Scroll]: Special Item. Countless years ago, the ancient Devil Realm Devil Race left behind a scroll, the contents of which are unknown. It has been widely circulated in the Primordial Devil Race.
After reading it, Lu Changzhi found it amusing.
As the saying goes, the antidote will surely be found within three steps.
Carrots, or rather, flatbread, here we come!
Although he may never need this reward, the motivation from the Xue Lang will obviously bring greater benefits.
At that moment, Lu Changzhi withdrew his thoughts and looked at Xue Lang.
Xue Lang felt a little nervous.
After all, Lu Changzhi had been silent the whole time.
As the saying goes, it's not the villains who are most feared, but the silent enemy.
This made the demon very uneasy.
At this moment, Lu Changzhi suddenly spoke up:
"Since you are willing, then let us draw up a contract."
Upon hearing this, Xue Lang was not surprised at all.
It's not just Human Race; in fact, most races like to do this to ensure certain things.
However, if we try to restrict him Human Race's conventions of making agreements, the effect will be very limited.
After all, he wasn't human; he was a demon.
As he was thinking, Lu Changzhi closed his eyes slightly, and then a strange, indistinct tone suddenly came from his mouth.
Upon hearing that tone, Xue Lang's eyes widened suddenly, becoming like a pair of copper bells, and he cried out in great surprise:
"How is this possible!"
The voice that Lu Changzhi uttered at this moment was none other than demonic language.
Moreover, it wasn't ordinary demonic language; it seemed to be Ancient Devil Language!
As Devil King, he only knew a little of the Ancient Devil Language.
Etc.
Xue Lang seemed to suddenly realize something, and his expression changed drastically.
He remembered what Lu Changzhi had said before, about forging a contract.
"Oh no!"
Xue Lang was immediately alarmed by the entire Demon City.
How can we play like this?!
If he forged Ancient Devil Contract with himself, there would be no way he could ignore it.
For a moment, Xue Lang felt a sense of despair.
This boat in the gutter has capsized completely!
Xue Lang listened carefully to the Ancient Devil Language spoken by Lu Changzhi and analyzed it seriously.
He quickly made up his mind.
It was indeed an Ancient Devil Contract, but coincidentally, he happened to know about this contract.
Simply put, it's about using blood as a catalyst to forge a master-servant contract, and the blood used as this catalyst must come from the master in the contract.
In other words, this human in front of him is trying to force blood into his demonic heart.
It wasn't particularly complicated, but he knew there were loopholes to exploit.
Using blood as a catalyst, holding the power of life and death, he himself is Blood Devil.
Although the other party is human and somewhat stronger, their blood may not be able to fully utilize the effects of this Ancient Devil Contract.
In that case, even if the contract has been concluded, it will be rendered meaningless if one can suppress it!
For a moment, Xue Lang breathed a sigh of relief, waiting to see if his idea would be proven true.
