A sworn enemy of the demon race, a swordsman, is going to join forces with the demon race to attack the Pudu Temple, a major human sect, with the aim of killing Youquan Blood Demon, the strongest demon in the Yan Kingdom.
This kind of thing sounds outrageous, and now Yang Sheng actually wants them to make it happen. Bei Zhen and Bai Jie feel that if they agree, they would also be outrageous.
What if those demons in the Youdu Mountains get annoyed and stew both of them into soup? Where can they complain?
Yang Sheng saw through their thoughts and threw his gold medal as the swordsman to them, saying, "Take my gold medal as the swordsman to show your sincerity."
Moreover, I will not treat you unfairly after I have dealt with the Pudu Temple.
With Pudu Temple pressing so hard right now, you wouldn't dare show your faces even after returning to the Huai River; you must be living in constant fear.
Once these matters are resolved, I will have Li Zongdao write to the Emperor of Yan to establish temples around the Huai River for you, so that you can openly worship the River God and the White Dragon Fairy.
Since you've chosen the path of becoming gods through incense offerings, then leave with dignity and integrity.
Upon hearing this, both Bei Zhen and Bai Jie's eyes turned red.
The conditions offered by Yang Sheng were simply too tempting.
The two little demons had no background, no lineage, and no talent, so their cultivation was extremely difficult.
Once, they accidentally saved a fisherman from Luoshui. When the fisherman thanked them and called them gods, they realized the existence of the power of incense and thus developed the idea of cultivating with the power of incense.
In terms of cultivation speed, the power of incense offerings is indeed much faster than their arduous process of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
If they were to honestly cultivate with their current level of cultivation, they probably wouldn't reach their current level even in another hundred years.
But they only realized how difficult the path was when they actually began their spiritual practice.
When they rescued people in the Huai River, they had to carefully avoid other practitioners and also be careful to spread their own reputation.
Without spreading their name, they cannot gather the power of incense offerings.
They were afraid that spreading their names too high-profile would attract the attention of the imperial court and lead to their destruction as evil gods and licentious worship.
Therefore, their path of cultivation can be described as walking on thin ice, extremely difficult.
However, if they gain the approval of the imperial court in the future and openly establish temples, becoming officially recognized river gods and white dragon fairies, then their path of cultivation will be smooth sailing.
Bei Zhen and Bai Jie exchanged a glance, gritted their teeth, and nodded in agreement.
The sooner the better. Seeing that the two of them agreed, Yang Sheng and the others immediately set off for the Youdu Mountains.
The entire Youdu Mountain Range is a primeval forest, sparsely populated, or rather, almost entirely inhabited, with only a few uncivilized savages.
Bei Zhen and Bai Jie left Yang Sheng and Cui Laodao waiting outside while they went inside to contact the demon race in the Youdu Mountains.
Although they were monsters from the Huai River, they had participated in several gatherings of the entire Yan Kingdom's demon race, so they were quite familiar with the place.
After the two monsters went inside, Old Master Cui clicked his tongue and sighed, "I say, Brother Yang, you're really ruthless."
Yang Sheng retorted, "How am I heartless?"
"Given the cultivation level of these two little monsters, if the demons in the Youdu Mountains were to turn against them, they might just devour them alive."
Yang Sheng said calmly, "If this is the result, then it proves that the demons in the Youdu Mountains are all short-sighted, violent and bloodthirsty monsters. I will naturally destroy them to avenge them in the future."
Moreover, fortune favors the bold, and they knew the dangers involved, as well as the benefits that would follow.
I gave them choices, not commands.
It's not that I'm heartless, it's that they're heartless to themselves.
How difficult is the path of spiritual practice? Where are there so many shortcuts to take?
Even if there truly is a shortcut, it is fraught with thorns and dangers, and one must pay a price to get through it.
Old Master Cui seemed to be deep in thought. In fact, his journey had been completely different from Yang Sheng's.
Don't let Cui Laodao's sleazy appearance and frequent embarrassing situations fool you; he actually makes a living through his talent.
Old Master Cui's mastery of talismanic arts is astonishing. He had thoroughly mastered the talismanic arts of the Zhengyi lineage in the main world, and could directly use them in the reincarnation world.
Yang Sheng has been working desperately all along, while Old Master Cui has managed to survive by playing it safe, and his strength has also increased rapidly.
Therefore, Yang Sheng had to admit that Cui Laodao was indeed a remarkable figure, a remarkable figure in his later years.
The two waited for half a day before Bei Zhen and Bai Jie finally emerged from the Youdu Mountains.
Both of them were covered in cold sweat and their faces were pale, clearly having experienced a great deal of fright.
Or perhaps you're just scaring yourself; you're on edge to the extreme.
"Your Excellency, the demons within the Youdu Mountains are willing to see you, but the situation is not good."
Bai Jie said.
Bei Zhen also said, "The demons in the Youdu Mountains are currently leaderless and somewhat frightened, so they are unsure whether to cooperate with you."
Some are interested, but others are strongly opposed; you should pay attention to this next.
Yang Sheng nodded and said, "It's alright. As long as they're willing to see me, there's a chance."
Yang Sheng and Cui Laodao stepped into the Youdu Mountains. There were no roads in this place, and it was all dark forests. Only the demons who often came here could find their way.
After winding their way through the mountains, Yang Sheng and his companions finally came upon a deep, dark cave.
After walking for a full hour inside the cave, a valley suddenly appeared before them.
