"You can't leave!"
The sudden sound echoed across the floor.
There wasn't a trace of emotional fluctuation in his voice.
Su Qing's body suddenly stiffened, and she slowly turned her head around.
The monkey's bright eyes were staring at him, eerie and bizarre.
As her stiff body relaxed slightly, Su Qing slowly revealed a smile.
"Although you were very strong before, your body is clearly not up to par now. If I want to leave, you can't stop me."
"Of course I can't stop them!"
The monkey's eyes moved, and waves of thought emanated from it.
"But the person who wanted to stop you wasn't me!"
"You may not know this, but six gods once died here."
Su Qing interrupted him: "I know that, six curse-type gods died here!"
The monkey was clearly surprised and paused for a moment before continuing to speak.
"That's right. Six gods once died here, and all of them were of the cursed lineage, which gave birth to six divine wills."
Su Qing nodded in agreement: "The six divine wills restrain each other, keeping the cursed kingdom in a delicate balance, but this balance has now been broken."
The monkey remained silent, watching him quietly.
“That’s right. Originally, the Cursed Kingdom was divided equally among the six of us, but unknowingly, the guy at the top has accumulated great power and wants to devour us and become the master of this kingdom.”
"Once he succeeds, his power will surpass those six cursed gods, making him a high-ranking god or even a top-ranking high-ranking god."
"By then, with the troublesome nature of curses, few on the entire continent will be his match."
"That would be a disaster for all living beings."
Su Qing gave him a strange look and stroked her chin: "To be honest, it feels weird for a cursed monkey like you, no, a god, to talk to me about saving the world."
The monkey paused for a moment: "Even if it's not for the sake of the creatures on the mainland, you should at least think about your own life."
"You didn't realize it, and you couldn't perceive it, but the cursed power of the entire kingdom has begun to converge here."
"The God of Light's methods are truly remarkable, forcing the six of us to cower in fear. Otherwise, that guy would have already devoured us by now."
“And once he has eaten us, your next target will be you. He can’t possibly refuse the fat meat that’s already been delivered to his mouth.”
“You are helping us, and you are also helping yourself. We can cooperate.”
The stone monkey looked at him with apparent sincerity.
Su Qing slowly stroked her chin, her eyes narrowing slightly: "What do you plan for me to do? And what benefits will I get?"
"Explaining the situation with emotion, reasoning with them, pointing out the greater good, and then discussing cooperation—these are all tactics I've exhausted, so you don't need to repeat them."
"Let's talk about something practical. There are benefits and dangers! Cooperating with you is like asking a tiger for its skin. I won't do it if there aren't enough benefits."
"And I'm not afraid to tell you, I'm just here to scout things out. There are eighty or ninety people outside. Sure, they're all a little worse than me, but they have the advantage in numbers, so I don't need to cooperate with you."
Su Qing stared at the monkey. This fat, divine creature was something he was determined to extract some oil from!
The monkey looked at the dragon, utterly speechless.
"Helping us is helping ourselves."
Su Qing nodded: "But the problem now is that you are begging us, and I need to take a big risk."
The monkey took a deep breath, and white smoke could be clearly seen billowing from the stone monkey's nostrils.
“I will give you a law, which was left behind by the previous six curse-type gods. Before they became gods, they controlled many laws.”
These things will merge with the divine essence after they become gods, but when the divine essence breaks, these laws will naturally separate and be controlled by the divine will that is born.
"However, this law is not a curse-type law, but a fire-type explosion law."
"Your strength will increase once you master this law."
The monkey gritted his teeth and said that he had really brought out something good this time; even gods would treasure things like laws.
The explosive laws of the fire element can successfully create a king of the fire element, and one with extremely strong combat power.
Su Qing's eyes lit up; he hadn't expected to extract such a good stuff. He immediately said, "Ten strips!"
The monkey immediately flew into a rage: "You fucking kill me!"
Do you think the law is like wild vegetables by the roadside, something you can pick as many as you want?
That is a technique that many exceptional geniuses spend their entire lives refining.
Even some gods who have attained divine status may not have comprehended more than three laws, and some gods may have only mastered one law.
As a result, this dragon opened its mouth and had ten mouths. Why don't you just die?
Su Qing touched her chin, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Shouldn't we negotiate this kind of thing? I'll give you ten points, and you can give me nine, and then we can discuss it slowly."
The monkey took a deep breath, white mist billowing from its nostrils: "I don't have time to waste with you. If you're not willing to cooperate, go and call the others in from outside."
Su Qing nodded quickly and was about to leave.
The monkey quickly called out to the dragon to stop.
"Wait a minute, we can discuss this further."
Who knows what the dragon will say after it leaves? What if it comes out saying there's nothing inside, and then leaves with everyone?
Then he'll have nowhere to cry even if he wants to.
The monkey's eyes darted around: "Although I can only give you one law, I can take you to find the other four divine wills. Only by joining forces can we resist that guy at the top."
"You can ask them for the rest."
Su Qing rolled her eyes: "You should have said so earlier, you're wasting my time."
After saying that, he looked at the monkey and asked, "Which way do we go?"
The monkey looked at him and said, "I can't go out. The power of the God of Light is too much of a threat to me. Let's go up the stairs. With me protecting you, those cursed monsters can't hurt you."
Su Qing stood there, fidgeting with his chin. He felt unsafe taking the monkey himself.
A thought flashed through Su Qing's mind, and she suddenly opened her mouth.
With a splat, a dazed girl was vomited up.
Su Qing immediately hung her leather armor, cloak, and necklace on her.
The curse was dispelled.
The girl slowly opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Su Qing.
His face turned pale, and he immediately shrank into a ball.
"Don't eat me, I don't taste good."
Su Qing glared at her: "Human flesh is sour and astringent, I would never eat it."
The girl had just breathed a sigh of relief when she felt something was off, but before she could think about it, Su Qing pointed at the monkey.
“Take this and come with me.”
The girl was still a bit confused, having just come out of the dragon's belly.
After hearing Su Qing's instructions, he obediently picked up the monkey.
One person and one dragon, one in front and one behind.
They walked towards higher levels.
