Upon hearing this voice, everyone was startled, their faces lit up with joy, and without further hesitation, they traversed through layers of space, arriving in front of a palace in the blink of an eye.
"We pay homage to the Holy Lord, and we pray that wherever the Holy Lord's divine might reaches, all will submit!" The four knelt before the door and said respectfully.
"You may enter."
As the ancient voice rang out, the black gold doors of the main hall slowly opened, and the group stepped inside.
The main hall was empty and extremely simple. In the deepest part, there was only a large black gold chair, on which sat a thin old man.
The elderly man had a full head of white hair and was dressed in plain clothes. Although he looked old, he was unusually clean-cut.
He stood there like a sculpture, exuding a profound aura, like the imposing presence of a towering mountain, making one feel insignificant.
This person is Lord Lingshan, the Holy Lord of the Extreme Mountain World, with the cultivation of a Quasi-Saint. He is the only person among the thousands of worlds in this Chaos Sea who can go head-to-head with the Evil God!
The four of them knelt down before Lord Lingshan, saying in reverence, "Congratulations on your emergence from seclusion, Holy Lord. From now on, you will be invincible."
Ling Shan Jun's aged face remained expressionless as he calmly surveyed the four people before him, finally fixing his gaze on Wu Dong.
“Wu Dong, those three have been Venerables for too long and have long forgotten the danger. Fortunately, you still have your senses, otherwise this Extreme Mountain World would have been shattered by them sooner or later.”
Wu Dong looked apprehensive and kowtowed again, saying, "It is my duty to be valued by the Holy Lord, and I dare not claim credit. The Holy Lord's words make me feel ashamed."
Lord Lingshan was quite satisfied with Wu Dong's down-to-earth attitude, and then praised him, "You don't need to be modest. I know what kind of people those three are. You are not only capable, but also meticulous. You are a rare talent. Now that you have discovered the conspiracy of the evil god world, you have done a great service. Tell me, what reward do you want?"
Wu Dong said solemnly, "If Your Majesty insists on rewarding me, I hope Your Majesty can be patient for a while and wait for the situation to change before making further plans."
Upon hearing this, Ling Shanjun looked sharply at Wu Dong and said coldly, "Do you think I'm afraid of that evil god Bi Bei?"
Wu Dong felt as if a giant mountain was pressing down on him, and the powerful aura made him tremble. He bit his tongue and said, "Your Majesty, the world of evil gods is much stronger than ours. We probably won't gain anything by fighting them head-on."
Ling Shan Jun suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, are you saying that I can't beat the evil god Bi Bei?"
Wu Dong managed to utter two words: "Exactly!"
Yang Yi and the other two were shocked to hear Wu Dong's words. Although what Wu Dong said was true, it should not have been so blunt.
On the contrary, Lord Lingshan said with an admiring tone, "You dare to speak the truth; you are indeed a treacherous minister."
"I am simply stating the facts. The advantage lies with them, not us. Why confront them head-on?"
Lingshan Jun stood up and slowly walked towards Wu Dong. Just when Yang Yi and the other two thought Wu Dong was about to die on the spot, Lingshan Jun actually helped Wu Dong up with both hands.
"What if I said that I have already reached the peak of Quasi-Saint upon emerging from seclusion?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Dong was startled and his face lit up with joy. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "If the Holy Lord can fight that evil god to a standstill, then we must fight, and we will surely win!"
"Oh? You're so confident?"
Wu Dong declared with righteous indignation, "No, we will fight to the death!"
Lord Lingshan laughed loudly, "As expected of someone who cultivates the Five Elements Laws, you are indeed bold. In that case, gather your strength and let's launch a surprise attack on the Evil God World."
After he finished speaking, he looked up and muttered, "For so many years, I have endured so much. Whoever has the bigger fist is right. This time, I will make you pay a heavy price!"
...
On Tuesday and Sunday, the two returned to the world of evil gods hundreds of years ago. They made great contributions by exploring the true nature of the Extreme Mountain World, which put Bi Bei in a good mood. He immediately expanded their sphere of influence by more than double.
After hundreds of years of internal strife, just as Zhou Qi had predicted, the remaining kings became less and less like actors as they fought. At the beginning, a few small fry died, but in the end, even their closest relatives died.
The group fought fiercely, but Bi Bei remained indifferent. As long as Da Luo didn't participate in the war and affect the foundation of the world, the lives of others were none of his concern.
But the people in the world of evil gods are in a terrible state. It's common for millions to die today and tens of millions to die tomorrow.
In the entire world of evil gods, only the forces of Tuesday and Sunday remained unaffected.
Tuesday's power was weakened because its leader was absent, and no one dared to provoke it. Zhou Qi's power, on the other hand, was not affected because his plans had been made in advance before he left, and a policy of isolationism was implemented after his departure.
Meanwhile, Zhou Qi's trusted confidants, whom he cultivated within the Zhou Wan Chamber of Commerce, were secretly amassing wealth among various powerful forces, engaging in both legitimate and illicit business, and making a fortune in the process!
After Zhou Qi returned and developed for several hundred years, his current power can be said to be second to none among the remaining six kings in terms of both territory and strength.
Even if all the other top players were combined, they wouldn't be as powerful as him.
In terms of territory, Zhou Qi has successively annexed the territories of Zhou Ba, Zhou Jiu, and Zhou Yi, and with the rewards bestowed by Bi Bei, he has already occupied half of the evil god's world!
In terms of strength, Zhou Qi had the Zhou Wan Chamber of Commerce as his backing, with money and resources at his disposal. Many powerful rogue cultivators came to serve him, which instantly made his accumulated wealth surpass that of everyone else!
There was a little incident in between. On Wednesday, several people jointly reported that Zhou Qi had misappropriated a large amount of immortal crystals and that his motives were impure. However, when they saw the innate treasures that Bi Bei took out, they all shut their mouths and gave them a severe scolding.
After this incident, Zhou Qi became even more frantic in accumulating wealth, and his plundering of immortal crystals became open and aboveboard, no longer done secretly.
No one knows how he acquired those few innate treasures, and Zhou Qi has no obligation to explain them to them!
The innate treasure was discovered by Zhou Qi in the treasure vault of Yang Er and Yang San, which he robbed alone. Even Zhou Er was unaware of this.
Now that the innate treasure has been brought out, it perfectly explains the whereabouts of the immortal crystal, making the best use of it.
...
On this day, Zhou Qi was cultivating in a secret room when suddenly a faint light flashed and entered his mind.
This was a secret technique that Meng Fan taught him to communicate with Wu Dong. It was not only quick and discreet, but also difficult to detect. Even if he used this technique in front of Bi Bei, Bi Bei would not be able to tell anything, so he was safe and sound.
After receiving this information, Zhou Qi grinned, realizing that the war between the two great worlds was not far off!
He tidied his face and quickly disappeared. Today was the day of the memorial ceremony, and those people would probably try to smear him again. He was bored anyway, so he might as well use them for a bit of fun.
