Chapter 0801 Truce
The whole Zhaoshan Island was shaking, trees fell one after another, and the wrecked ship buried in the beach gradually revealed its full appearance. The birds and animals in the forest were startled and ran away in astonishing numbers. There was a cloud of birds above their heads, and on the ground were groups of deer, monkeys, rabbits, mice and other animals running, rushing onto the beach like crazy and jumping into the sea without hesitation.
The birds and animals on the island were not just running for their lives. They probably received some kind of order, or were bound by magic, and attacked the humans and monsters they met with reckless bravery.
There were less than 20 monsters left who went deep into the mountains to find the whereabouts of the animal trainer. They mixed into the flock of birds and flew out of the island together. There was smoke and fire formed by magic everywhere. The injured and dead birds fell like hail, but compared with their huge number, the loss was negligible. On the contrary, the surrounded monsters were getting more and more in trouble, screaming.
The four parties who were fighting on the beach stopped at the same time. There were too many animals rushing over, and even the rabbits were fierce and opened their mouths to bite.
The Supreme Demon Lord turned around, and hundreds of tentacles extended from his mesh armor, like a waterweed that accidentally grew on land, waving deadly weapons, warning all living creatures that dared to approach. This move was successful, and the animals avoided him. No matter how fast they ran, they could always change direction in time. The area within ten steps around the Supreme Demon Lord became an isolated island in the animal frenzy.
Mu Xingqiu used the surrounding heaven and earth aura to form a tight shield, leaving the animals nowhere to bite. Yin Buchen also hid in it and kept waving at the big and small beasts a few steps away, "Go away, go away, you... disgusting guys."
Yuan Qijing on the other side responded most violently, stretching out his spear and drawing a circle on the beach. The vibration caused by his magic quickly shrank into the circle, and the sand surged two or three feet high like a spring. All the beasts that hit him were either dead or injured. For a while, blood and flesh flew everywhere, dyeing the beach red.
"Stupid, why don't you put away your magic? You are the one who alarmed Feixiao!" Yin Buchen shouted.
Yuan Qijing's earthquake technique and the vibration of Zhaoshan happened one after the other, and it seems that there is indeed a causal relationship, but he did not admit it, "It has nothing to do with me. It was you two who angered Feixiao.
Yin Buchen just sneered, and recognized that the cause of this disaster was Yuan Qijing. He whispered to Mu Xingqiu: "Dao Zun, kill this usurper. With you here, I will not be the king of Jiao. I will offer the entire Iron Jiao clan to you as a slave."
Mu Xingqiu felt that Yuan Qijing's words made some sense. There were the most animals besieging him and Yin Buchen, including beasts on the ground, birds in the sky, and even fish in the sea jumping back onto the beach, twisting their bodies desperately, trying to get a bite before suffocating to death...
"Feixiao is competing with me for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. "Mu Xingqiu suddenly realized that Feixiao swallowed the entire Zhaoshan Mountain and merged with it, with the purpose of absorbing the abundant spiritual energy of heaven and earth here. It was indifferent to the fierce fighting and fighting on the island, but the natural magic that consumed a lot of spiritual energy of heaven and earth was a strong opponent.
Mu Xingqiu immediately switched to the mind illusion to create a new layer of prohibition.
The vibration of Zhaoshan stopped, and the flocks of birds and beasts finally dispersed slowly. Those who jumped into the sea and went ashore went back to their own places. A large number of corpses were left on the beach, as well as stranded fish and injured birds and beasts struggling to survive.
Most of the other monsters on the island died in the beaks of birds. Only five monsters fled back to their own boats, and the monsters on the sea retreated further.
The beach was quiet for a while, and Mu Xingqiu said: "I suggest a temporary truce."
Yuan Qijing laughed. There were the most dead birds and beasts around him, but his almost naked body was spotless. "Why? I think this battle is quite interesting. Your Excellency has a strange background and a strange magic. He can even alarm Feixiao. Why don't you try harder and wake him up completely? "
Yin Buchen whispered, "Yuan Qijing is a future trouble. Daozun can kill him with a casual move."
Mu Xingqiu didn't do anything, and neither did Yuan Qijing. They looked at the Supreme Demon Lord together.
The Supreme Demon Lord had already retracted his half-demon body, and the mesh armor was restored to a small ornament. The old demon barely stood up, his chest was shriveled, and beads of sweat rolled down his face. He cast spells with his own flesh and blood, which was the most costly. After taking a breath, he said, "I agree to a truce.
Yin Buchen felt that this was an opportunity, "It just so happens that there is only Yuan Qijing left, Daozun..."
"Shut up." Mu Xingqiu ordered, picked up the Chuyun horn on the ground, flew to the mountains and forests in the middle of the island, and after passing the corpses of birds and beasts, landed and walked.
Yin Buchen had no choice but to follow him, looking back reluctantly, "Hey, Daozun, be careful, Yuanqijing is following us."
Yuanqijing not only followed him, but also got very close. After landing, he walked side by side with Mu Xingqiu into the woodland. There were fallen trees everywhere in front of them. They were not affected much because of their flexible bodies.
Yin Buchen looked at the two figures in front of him in confusion, not understanding why Mu Xingqiu allowed Yuanqijing to follow him, and even more so, where their tacit understanding came from.
After walking a distance, Yin Buchen looked back again, "What is the Supreme Demon Lord doing?"
Mu Xingqiu also looked back. The Supreme Demon Lord was sitting among a pile of corpses, seemingly practicing his skills to heal his wounds, but even the demons with the most peculiar skills rarely choose such a filthy place to practice.
The Supreme Demon Lord slowly rose up, and on the beach, several of the largest corpses were moving quickly under him. They were all dead demons, including the few remaining corpses of Qi Xuntian.
"Demon magic." Yuan Qijing sighed, "It seems that the demons will not kill them all. There will always be a group of monsters left, and perhaps humans as well."
But who wants to live as a slave and die as fertilizer? Yuan Qijing looked at Prince Yong, "What do you think, King Saishen? Do you think you can share power with the demons?"
"Hey, everyone has the same hope." Yuan Qijing opened the way with his spear, refusing to fall behind even half a step.
Yin Buchen, who was following them, became more and more puzzled, "What are we looking for? Why don't you kill the Supreme Demon Lord even if he's like this?"
"Ling Wang and the others are still in the forest." Mu Xingqiu said. He could see clearly that when the demons were fleeing, Yang Qingyin was not among them, but Zhao Shan had become dangerous, and he had to see her to feel at ease, so A truce is recommended.
Yuan Qijing answered another question, "There are dozens of demon corpses on the island. I would rather let the Supreme Demon Lord suck them away than leave them to the half-demon."
Yin Buchen gnashed his teeth at Yuan Qijing's back.
The mountain is gradually rising, and there are more complete trees. In Mu Xingqiu's impression, the trees in Zhaoshan are sparse and dense, and you will not encounter any obstruction when walking inside. But now it is different, there are only three trees. Over the years, the trees on the island have grown wildly and their branches are intertwined. Without magic to open a way, it would be almost impossible to move forward.
Yuan Qijing suddenly broke the silence, "There is a reason for the Supreme Being to fall into the Demonic Abyss."
"Needless to say, everyone wants to become stronger to protect themselves." Yin Buchen said quickly. He wanted to catch up with Mu Xingqiu and "walk side by side" several times, but he always fell behind involuntarily after a few steps. This made him He was very annoyed and felt that his position had been taken away by Yuan Qijing.
Yuan Qijing ignored him at all. He pointed his spear and the branches automatically parted to make way for him. "The Supreme Master's real surname is Fei. I won't mention his name. He has a son who contracted a serious illness due to improper cultivation. It has been twenty years. He has been I'm looking for a cure everywhere, but neither the demon clan nor humans have this ability, and Taoism does..."
Yuan Qijing snorted softly. There was no need to explain more. Daotong certainly could not heal a demon clan. "So the arrival of the demon clan is an opportunity for Taishang and his son. If my guess is right, Taishang I came to Zhaoshan this time to perform meritorious service in exchange for more help from the demon clan."
"Why are you telling us this?" Yin Buchen was confused, "Who doesn't have their own worries? All the monsters who died on the island, including the second-level magician, probably did it to protect their parents, wives and children. I just came here to take risks - phew, there is no need to be so hypocritical. In the end, strength is everything?
Yuan Qijing took two steps quickly and blocked the front of Yong Wangsun with his spear. His expression became serious, "Yin Buchen calls you Dao Zun, but the only Dao Zun in the world is Mu Xingqiu. He has died in Zhibu Bang. Over the years There are many legends about him. Just over half a month ago, it was said that Mu Xingqiu appeared in Talang City and merged with the ancient statue. This is all nonsense, but your spells and everything about you are a bit weird. , who are you?"
Yin Buchen showed excited eyes, hoping that Mu Xingqiu would kill Yuan Qijing.
But he was disappointed. Mu Xingqiu didn't make any move to cast a spell, and he didn't even lift the Izumo horn in his hand.
"Tao Zun is just a name, why does it have to be the only one?" Mu Xingqiu tried his best not to lie, but he also didn't want to tell the whole truth. "You said that you wanted to use Feixiao to go to the extreme south to hide, but in that way It's useless, it just delays the arrival of destruction. If there is a chance now, it is a very slim chance. No matter whether you win or lose, it will bring a lot of casualties, but after all, there is a possibility of victory. Are you willing to fight the demons? "
Yuan Qijing thought quietly for a while, "But the victory will eventually be taken away by the orthodoxy."
"A group of humans and monsters can defeat the demons in battle, will their victory be taken away easily? The winner has the qualifications to negotiate conditions."
Yuan Qijing thought for a while and suddenly laughed, "You are a Taoist priest, so you put humans before the demons, so you don't even have the idea of starting a war with the Taoists. Unfortunately, I don't see anyone defeating the demons now. Opportunity, despair everywhere.”
"What's the sign of opportunity for you?"
"I'll know it when I see it."
Mu Xingqiu and Yuan Qijing looked at each other, and Yin Bushen's eyes swept back and forth, unable to tell whether the two were going to fight or join forces.
"If I can defeat three half-demon, does it count as a chance?"
The person who said such bold words was not Mu Xingqiu, Yuan Qijing, and Yin Buchen, but a little demon on a nearby tree.
Feifei's face turned red, and he seemed to feel embarrassed, "The method of refining beasts can fight against the demons, I will prove it to you."
