Xia Tianqiong was surprised. These strange gods were truly powerful, able to predict each other's actions.

But then I realized that wasn't the case.

“You tried to pull me into the dream just now, but failed, so you guessed that a ghost god had come looking for me.”

This time it was the other person's turn to be surprised. "Your reaction speed is quite fast. Not bad, you're a smart person. I like talking to smart people."

Xia Tianqiong feigned ignorance and asked, "What brings you here?"

“I’ll help you, otherwise how can you deal with Jun Shisan? The half of the True Spirit Dao Scripture that you got from Leng Tianpeng was given to him by me.”

This genie speaks frankly, but his words are clearly tinged with arrogance.

Xia Tianqiong nodded calmly, "Oh, thank you then. How do you plan to help me? Will you give me the other half of the True Spirit Dao Scripture?"

"I did intend to give it to you, but first tell me what the ghost god who just visited you said to you?"

"He didn't say anything, just that if any other evil god came to me to deal with Jun Shisan, they definitely had bad intentions."

Xia Tianqiong did not completely trust the old man Huo, and remained skeptical of the man in front of her as well.

Therefore, he wanted to extract as much information as possible.

As the saying goes, if you want to manipulate someone, you must first negate them and say bad things about them, and they will find a way to prove themselves.

As expected, the opposing Ghost God began to explain, his tone becoming calmer.

"I'm helping you voluntarily to eliminate Jun Shisan. It will only benefit you, not harm you. Don't believe the previous 'Demon God'; he's deceiving you."

If I'm not mistaken, he will definitely make you compete fairly with Jun Shisan. Regardless of who wins or loses, you must eventually merge. They don't care who you are; they only want to cultivate the strongest demon god through this method.

If you lose, everything you have will belong to Jun Shisan. If you win, you will become Jun Shisan, and from then on, you will be their tool.

You need to understand that they paid a heavy price to cultivate the strongest evil god, not to do charity, but to make him their henchman and tool. Are you willing to accept that?

As for why I'm helping you, it's because my faction has always maintained stability in the upper realm. Jun Shisan's method of becoming stronger through continuous reincarnation and devouring others goes against the natural order.

If he succeeds, it will disrupt the balance of power in the upper realm, bringing disaster and unrest to the lower realm as well. In short, I'm not doing this to help you, but to help maintain stability in our upper realm.

"If you were to become Jun Shisan, we would do everything in our power to eliminate you and prevent you from entering the Upper Realm."

To prove his innocence, this mysterious god spoke at length.

Even at the very end, he didn't forget to threaten Xia Tianqiong.

Xia Tianqiong didn't take it to heart. He compared Huo Lao's words with those of this strange god in his mind, trying to decipher more information.

Suddenly I realized that both sides had some merit.

They may all be telling the truth, but they've all hidden some details.

"If you give me the second half of the True Spirit Dao Scripture, will you be able to eliminate Jun Shisan?"

"It should be fine. He has reincarnated many times and devoured many people, so his true spirit is quite powerful. You only had a half-step true spirit Dao scripture before, so it was naturally difficult to defeat his true spirit. Once you have the complete Dao scripture, destroying him will not be a problem."

"Alright, give me the second half of the Daoist scripture! I will definitely kill Jun Shisan."

"Don't you have any other questions?"

The strange god was somewhat surprised by Xia Tianqiong's decisiveness.

"There are two problems, though. You upper-realm demon gods can't directly attack people in the lower realm, is that right?"

"You can't do it in the lower realm, but if you go to the upper realm, you won't have this restriction."

"If I become a demon god, can I resurrect true spirits that have already entered the cycle of reincarnation?"

"Theoretically it's possible, but in reality it's very difficult because there are too many people in the human world to count, and you might not be able to find it."

"Can you, the Creatures, lie to humans?"

"Of course, the rules of the Ghost Realm are invalid in the Upper Realm."

Xia Tianqiong asked a few more unimportant questions before ending the conversation.

The genie then passed on the second half of the True Spirit Dao Scripture to him, and gave him a few more instructions before leaving.

Xia Tianqiong also emerged from the dream, slowly opening her eyes with a somewhat solemn expression.

When I first encountered Jun Shisan, I used half of the True Spirit Dao Scripture to destroy all of his true spirits, but he did not perish. He came a second time, and he was even stronger.

But this wicked god said that half of the true scripture could not defeat Jun Shisan's true spirit!

Is he unaware of the effects of even half a copy of the scriptures, or is he lying?

Xia Tianqiong suddenly remembered what Old Huo had said.

Old Huo said that no matter what help this mysterious god provides, there may be a trap that could directly kill him!

However, the evil gods of the upper realm cannot directly attack people in the lower realm. Therefore, if they want to harm him, there must be something wrong with the latter half of the True Spirit Scripture.

Thinking about this, I became even more vigilant.

The evil god had already transmitted the true scriptures into his memory, but he had not yet silently recited them.

Now it seems we need to be cautious; there might really be something fishy going on.

Just like what Old Huo said, as long as he is killed, Jun Shisan will be crippled, which fits the purpose of that wicked god.

"I can't believe this, I can't believe that, who the hell can I believe?!"

Xia Tianqiong suddenly muttered a curse under her breath, feeling quite helpless.

Ever since he learned that fate could be arranged, he now has to think things through carefully before doing anything, and he doesn't dare to believe it from anyone, including himself.

So what should we do now?

He thought it over carefully. He could either risk going back to find the "True Spirit Devouring" secret technique, or risk trying the second half of the true scripture. Both options were risky, but he had to choose one, or he would be stuck here.
