The system has lived for so many years and never imagined that it would be threatened by someone in a Japanese-style manner.
But he seemed to understand that if he didn't bleed a little today, his capitalist host wouldn't let him off the hook, so he could only helplessly say:
[Ding! Just tell me what you want, host.]
Stephen Chow immediately made an outrageous demand:
"It's nothing, just freeing Nezha and Li Jing from all their shackles."
How could the system possibly agree?
[Ding! Host, don't go too far. These two are both innate deities. Nezha needs at least 100 million luck points, and Li Jing (the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King) needs 80 million luck points. Even if you killed ten Heavenly Kings, it wouldn't be enough!]
Upon hearing the system's words, Zhou Xingdou frowned, not because of the system's rejection, but because of the system's mention of unlocking the luck values of Nezha and Li Jing (the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King).
Nezha only needs 100 million, and Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, only needs 80 million.
It's worth noting that Princess Iron Fan requires 100 million luck points. Although Stephen Chow adores Princess Iron Fan, her strength is far inferior to Nezha's, and even to Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King.
Even the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, the Bull Demon King, was almost beaten to death by these two, father and son.
The system seemed to sense Zhou Xingdou's suspicion, and to prevent Zhou Xingdou from overthinking and suspecting it of embezzlement, the system immediately explained:
[Ding! Princess Iron Fan herself is not very strong. She is a half-immortal and half-immortal, between the acquired and the innate. It is enough to unlock her strength with five million luck points.]
But the key point is the banana leaf fan in her hand. The fully unsealed banana leaf fan is a primordial spiritual treasure, almost equivalent to a Great Luo Immortal, and perhaps even more wondrous!
After hearing the system's explanation, Zhou Xingdou understood.
The Banana Leaf Fan is indeed worth the price, after all, its effects are too abnormal. Without the Wind-Fixing Pearl, even Sun Wukong would be blown away.
While it's possible that Sun Wukong hesitated to use lethal force, it's enough to prove the extraordinary nature of the Banana Leaf Fan.
In this regard, Zhou Xingdou raised an eyebrow and said to the system:
"How about I compromise? You completely unseal Iron Fan, and we can talk about Nezha and Li Jing later?"
The system immediately retorted:
[Ding! Impossible. At most, the system can help the host unseal all the battle slaves summoned today, except for Li Jing and Nezha, and allow Li Jing and Nezha to be unsealed to their peak six-star state.]
After saying that, the system seemed afraid that Zhou Xingdou was still not satisfied, and then explained:
[Ding! Host, don't underestimate these minor celestial officials. Although they are not Great Luo Immortals, they are still among the best of the acquired powerhouses. Otherwise, how could they have been granted divine titles?]
To the system's surprise, Zhou Xingdou immediately agreed, a sly smile playing on his lips.
"Okay, thank you, system."
The system immediately understood.
It's awesome!
We've been tricked!
Zhou Xingdou knew from the start that the system would not agree to his proposal, because it wasn't a matter of whether the system was willing or not, but rather whether the current system was capable of doing so.
Therefore, his initial goal was not to have the system completely unseal Li Jing and Nezha.
This is known as the "demolition effect." When making a request to someone, you can first make an unreasonable request, and then make a relatively smaller request. This way, the other person will feel guilty for refusing the first request and will agree to the second request.
Of course, the system was quite practical; it didn't even require Zhou Xingdou to make any simple requests before stating its bottom line.
This bottom line requirement even exceeded Stephen Chow's expectations.
After all, Zhou Xingdou initially thought that the system could unseal Nezha and Li Jing (the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King) to the level of the Three Tribulations Emperor for free, but he didn't expect that he would also get the unsealing of all the gods like Qianliyan (the Thousand-Mile Eye) in return.
Seeing the system hesitate because of the potential loss, Zhou Xingdou urged it:
"Hurry up, hurry up. After I've used Tianxin's things, I'll give them to you."
In short, eliminate system hesitation:
[Ding! Host, you must keep your word!]
Zhou Xingdou said with a hint of helplessness:
"Would I lie to you?"
Immediately afterwards, Stephen Chow's voice rang out in a series of announcements:
[Ding! Congratulations, host! The Heavenly General Thousand-Mile Eye has broken free of all shackles and reached the level of: First Tribulation Great Emperor!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! The Heavenly General Shunfeng'er has broken free of all shackles and reached the level of: First Tribulation Great Emperor!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! The Thunder God, Lei Gong, has broken all shackles and reached the pinnacle of Emperor status.]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! The Goddess of Lightning, Divine Mother, has unlocked all her power and reached the level of: Third Tribulation Emperor!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! The Wind Goddess, Feng Po, has broken all her shackles and reached the level of: Third Tribulation Great Emperor!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! Yu Bo, the God of Rain, has broken all shackles and reached the level of: Great Emperor of the Third Tribulation!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! The Great God Nezha of the Three Altars and Seas has had his cultivation level unlocked to: Peak of Emperor.]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, has unlocked his cultivation level to: Peak of Emperor.]
...
The system notifications rang out like a tidal wave, and Zhou Xingdou gasped in shock upon hearing them.
Although the two with Thousand-Mile Eyes and Wind-Following Ears were only on par with the Giant Spirit God, the four great gods of thunder, lightning, wind, and rain were beyond expectations.
The three—the Goddess of Lightning, the Phoenix Granny, and the Rain Uncle—are all at the level of Great Emperors who have passed through the Tribulations of the Three Realms.
Lei Gong, however, was even more superior to them, being the pinnacle among the Great Emperors, having reached the state of perfect fusion of the Three Tribulations, the ultimate peak of the Emperor realm.
It should be noted that in the entire Star Alliance, only Tianyin and Wufatian have barely reached the pinnacle of the Emperor realm, the true peak of the acquired realm.
And the system kept its word, with Nezha and Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, directly returning to the pinnacle of the Emperor realm.
Stephen Chow couldn't wait to summon the gods.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz.......
Ten buzzing sounds followed, and figures stepped out of the void one after another.
The first to appear were Thousand-Mile Eyes and Wind-Following Ears. Each of them had eyes as big as light bulbs and ears as wide as fists. They wore divine armor that was not much different from that of the Giant Spirit God, which was quite impressive.
Next came the Thunder God and Lightning Goddess.
Lei Gong has a red face and a bird's beak, a bare chest and belly, two wings on his back, and feet like eagle claws. He is tall and strong, holding a hammer in one hand and an awl in the other, looking extremely fierce.
In contrast, the Goddess of Lightning is a kind-faced woman who holds two mirrors.
As her name suggests, Feng Po was an old woman who carried a wind bag and wore simple clothes. You might mistake her for an old woman farming in the mortal world.
Uncle Yu is an old man with a white beard dressed as a scholar, with long eyebrows that droop down to his chin.
The six celestial officials were all radiant with precious light. Although they looked different, they all exuded a vast and powerful divine aura.
Immediately afterwards, an unparalleled aura filled the area. Zhou Xingdou looked toward the source of the aura and saw a red ribbon flash.
boom!
An extremely fierce will descended upon the world, and a figure who looked down upon the heavens and the earth suddenly appeared.
He was a beautiful young man with feminine features.
With wondrous insight and keen understanding, her refined features and elegant bearing are truly exceptional. She is indeed a celestial being, a phoenix rising from the clouds.
Barefoot in lotus robes, riding on Wind and Fire Wheels, with the Hun Tian Ling wrapped around his body and the Qian Kun Huan hanging diagonally across his chest, his strong, jade-like arms embraced him as he looked down at all living beings at a forty-five-degree angle. His wicked eyes were filled with an arrogant disdain for everything!
