Chapter 209 Cooperation Conditions, Longevity Plan! (1/2)
In the main hall of Lieyang Palace, the atmosphere instantly became tense.
Lin Bei's eyes were alert, ready to fight at any time.
Upon seeing this, the Lord of Lieyang Palace could not help but smile and shake his head: "Hey, don't be so excited. If we can't reach an agreement, we can discuss it slowly."
"Is there anything to discuss?"
Lin Bei asked with a stern face.
"I just want to borrow the Wanxiang chessboard in your hand, not take it away."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace spread his hands and sounded helpless.
But as he spread his hands, the surrounding space became extremely unstable, as if it would collapse at any time.
"Look, I don't live like a human being at all now. Even with the stable space rules of Lieyang Palace, I still don't have any freedom. Even a simple action like spreading my hands will cause a lot of trouble to myself."
Princess Lieyang sounded quite helpless.
He looked at Lin Bei and said sincerely: "I really... just want to cooperate with you."
When Lin Bei heard this, he still didn't dare to relax.
The opponent's strength was somewhat beyond his knowledge.
He had no doubt that if the other party took action and faced those so-called legendary powerhouses, he would probably be able to kill them instantly with just one move.
Moreover, his attributes have only reached the epic level now, and there is still a long way to go before the legendary attributes. If he is accidentally attacked by the opponent, his end... will definitely be very miserable.
"Don't be so nervous."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace sighed: "Well, actually if I had a choice, I wouldn't do this. But... I'm at the end of my rope."
"Speaking of which, Senior Brother Tianji's decision is correct. It's really best for us not to take action now."
"Otherwise, once the rules are broken, the seal on Planet Aquamarine... will probably become extremely loose, which will cause trouble."
"Those people from the radical faction are always thinking about invading Planet Aquamarine and gaining true freedom."
"What radicals? Who are they?"
Lin Bei heard this and asked in a deep voice.
"They are the three major forces of the human race in the shrine world, namely Wanfa Palace, Xiaoyao Sect and Wanxiang Sect. The controllers of these three forces are also the disciples of the teacher, but... they face the shackles of heaven, and their methods are more... fierce."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace explained patiently: "If we fight, the power of rules on the battlefield of all races will inevitably be broken. When the time comes... the fluctuations in the rules will affect the world of Aquamarine where you are."
"At that time...those radicals will open up space channels at all costs and force the two worlds to merge. At that time...what will happen to the humans in your world?"
Lin Bei frowned even more when he heard this.
Although he didn't know why the breaking of the power of the rules of the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield would affect Aquamarine, he had always opened his eyes of insight from the beginning of his conversation with the other party.
He could clearly judge that the Lord of Lieyang Palace had not lied from beginning to end.
In other words, there was indeed a connection that he didn't know about.
"You said that the three major human forces in the shrine world are all radical factions? Then how did I hear that you yourself are the behind-the-scenes controller of the Xiaoyao faction?"
"Could it be that you yourself are what you call a radical?"
After the words fell, the smile on Palace Master Lieyang's face suddenly stiffened.
After a long while, he asked: "You... seem to know a lot."
However, at this time, he no longer had the calmness and calmness before, but looked at Lin Bei with a solemn expression, as if he wanted to see through the latter's mind.
"answer my question."
Lin Bei spoke calmly, without much expression on his face.
"Heh, that's interesting."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace said calmly: "Yes, I am indeed the mastermind behind the Xiaoyao Sect, but...whether I will become a radical sect depends on the choice you make."
"You can see my current situation. I long for freedom, or... relative freedom."
"Therefore, I have to be prepared in advance, so that once the cooperation between us breaks down, I will need to make another plan of mine."
"And this plan is related to the radical approach of the Xiaoyao sect."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace said, a smile reappeared on the corner of his mouth: "So, your choice is very important."
"If we can reach cooperation, then the Xiaoyao Sect will become a nail for you to break into the radical faction. When necessary, it can play a huge role."
"As for my request, it is very simple and will not embarrass you."
"I just want to borrow the function of the Wanxiang chessboard to isolate the power of heaven. I don't want to take it as my own."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace explained patiently: "So... I need to stay with you in the future. What you have to do is to help me isolate the power of heaven."
"Of course in return, I will be by your side to protect you throughout the process, and through my status as a senior member of the All-Heaven Space Chamber of Commerce, I can help you do some business with people in other worlds, allowing you to grow faster."
"This is a mutually beneficial thing for both of us."
"I hope you can think about it carefully and don't refuse in a hurry."
After the Lord of Lieyang Palace finished speaking, he stopped talking and lowered his eyes, waiting for Lin Bei's reply.
Lin Bei fell into deep thought after hearing this.
He was silent for a long time, took a deep breath, looked at the Lieyang Palace Master who looked harmless, and said: "I can agree to your request. But... I have a request."
"You say! As long as I can do it, I will definitely agree to it!"
When the Lord of Lieyang Palace heard this, his face lit up, and his breathing became rapid.
He originally thought that the other party would refuse.
After all, his actions, although he said that he was asking for something, actually used some shameful means to threaten the other party with the Xiaoyao Sect as a bargaining chip.
If the other party was a young man, it was very likely that he would overturn the table if he was not satisfied.
After all, if he was not angry, how could he be called a young man?
But he never expected that the other party would agree so quickly.
The development of the matter was somewhat unexpected for him.
However, his mood at this time was more ecstatic.
Because once the other party agreed to his conditions, he could finally get rid of the suppression of the Heavenly Dao and gain a moment of freedom.
This was more important to him than anything else!
Therefore, as long as the other party's request was not excessive, he would definitely agree to it all without frowning!
"I only have one request. You need to swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao that you will never attack me or the people of Aquamarine Star in any form or by any means in the future. And...if I go to war with radicals or conservatives in the future, you must stand on my side!"
After Lin Bei finished speaking, he looked at the Lord of the Lieyang Palace, waiting for his reply.
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Lieyang Palace frowned slightly. He looked at Lin Bei curiously and asked, "If I remember correctly, you are on the conservative side now, right? From what you said, you may go to war with them in the future?"
"Nothing is absolute."
Lin Bei explained, "Now we are indeed united, but this is because our interests are the same. As for the future... In case there are some disagreements between us, I need a strong fighter like you to be my thug to hold the scene."
"Of course, if I grow fast enough, there is no need."
"I do this just to keep a layer of insurance."
Lin Bei turned his eyes to the Lord of Lieyang Palace, "Make a decision quickly. Whether our cooperation can succeed depends on your thoughts."
"I can promise you."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace looked solemn, "But... you also need to make a Heavenly Oath."
"Don't you know that I have the Wanxiang Chessboard in my hand, even if I make a Heavenly Oath, it will not have any binding effect on me?"
Lin Bei asked back with a smile.
"Ah, this... seems to be the case!"
The Lord of Lieyang Palace fell silent after hearing this.
But soon, he gritted his teeth and said: "I don't care. Since it is a cooperation, we should at least have a sense of ceremony!"
"That... you swear to the Heavenly Dao that you must not deliberately put away the Heavenly Dao isolation barrier around me during our cooperation. You know, my current situation is special. Once I am directly exposed to the Heavenly Dao, my fate will be very miserable."
"And... you don't want this kind of thing to cause the rules to be broken and the two worlds to merge directly, right?"
Lin Bei nodded after hearing this: "Okay, I can promise you this. But... I have a question."
"Ask, I promise to tell you everything I know."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace said in a relaxed tone.
"I've heard a rumor that the Shrine World and the Aquamarine World will merge with each other one day, and it is said that this time will not exceed a thousand years at most."
"Do you know this statement?"
"This..."
The Lord of the Lieyang Palace frowned upon hearing this, and said with some entanglement: "In fact, this statement is not accurate."
"What do you mean?"
"Well... let's put it this way, according to the current plan of the radicals, it actually only takes a hundred years at most to promote the fusion of the two worlds."
"It doesn't take a thousand years at all."
The Lord of the Lieyang Palace sighed and said: "And the reason why I chose to cooperate with you is actually... I don't agree with some of their practices."
Lin Bei's face became much gloomier.
He didn't expect that the situation was so pessimistic.
"Alas, in fact, if the two worlds can be smoothly integrated, I would be more happy to see it happen."
The Lord of the Lieyang Palace said helplessly: "But for thousands of years, those radicals... have gone crazy. They actually planned to sacrifice billions of lives in the shrine world and the Aquamarine world, using their blood and qi to catalyze the process of world integration."
"The blood and qi consumed in this process... is a very terrifying number."
"According to my speculation, if this plan is successfully implemented, all the lives in the two worlds... will die as a result."
"In addition, as far as I know, when the two worlds are truly integrated, those radicals will continue to use these sacrifices of countless lives to Qi and blood power, to start the next plan. "
"They call it... the longevity plan."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace said solemnly, "They plan to use the Qi and blood life force of those people to directly enter the realm of true immortals."
"Longevity plan?"
"Well, the specific principle of the longevity plan is to nourish oneself through countless Qi and blood and life force, so that those who are in the realm of immortals can avoid being eroded by the five decays of heaven and man, and enter the realm of true immortals unimpeded all the way. "
The Lord of Lieyang Palace explained, and then continued: "These things are still far away from you. You only need to know one thing. Once this plan is implemented, all the creatures in the two worlds will fall into endless darkness. "
"The radicals use all living things as blood and study the longevity plan. In my opinion... they have already been possessed by demons."
Lin Bei's mood became much more depressed after hearing this.
He didn't understand the troubles he would encounter in the immortal realm, nor did he know what the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Man were. He only knew one thing, that the radicals... were indeed completely crazy.
"Actually... I didn't know this plan very well at first."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The reason why I know so much is that the time traveler named Li Changkong told me."
"Li Changkong? Time traveler?"
Lin Bei heard this and asked in surprise: "How did he know all this?"
"Hehe, that's because... he came from the future."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace raised his eyebrows and said: "Speaking of which, it was me who helped him to be extradited successfully at that time."
"Well... through some permissions of my senior members of the Zhutian Space Chamber of Commerce, he was able to descend to this time and space."
"If it weren't for him, I really There are not enough resources to build this Lieyang Palace. "
"I have to say, he is very rich, I like him very much."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace looked at Lin Bei, who was frowning, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't think too much about things, it's nothing, this world seems complicated, but it's actually very simple."
"Thinking too much will only make you sink deeper and deeper, and you can't see everything clearly."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace said earnestly: "Or... all things in this world are actually in the dark... There is God's will."
"... Happy cooperation."
Lin Bei came back to his senses, and after a moment of silence, he spoke lightly.
"Happy cooperation!"
The Lord of Lieyang Palace grinned when he heard it.
The next moment, Lin Bei used the power of the Wanxiang Chessboard to directly set up a barrier around the Lord of Lieyang Palace to isolate the Heavenly Dao.
Feeling the disappearance of the pressure around his body, the Lord of Lieyang Palace smiled brightly.
He jumped up and down in a hurry, constantly moving his body.
During the whole process, there was no sign of space breaking.
"Hahaha, that's the feeling!"
The Lord of Lieyang Palace smiled and nodded at Lin Bei, saying, "Boy, your safety will be left to me from now on."
Lin Bei curled his lips and said, "Don't be too happy too soon. The barrier of the Wanxiang chessboard not only isolates the suppression power of the Heavenly Dao on you, but also isolates your various abilities at the same time."
"Now, even if you burst out with all your strength, you may not be able to exert much of your strength in your heyday."
"If you don't believe it, try it yourself?"
"Uh..."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace heard the words, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Damn, how could I forget this?
But...
"Haha, it's not a big problem. Even if I can't use various means, even if I only rely on the strength of my physical body, it is enough to deal with ordinary opponents in the middle stage of the Immortal Realm."
The corners of the Lord of Lieyang Palace raised, and his face was full of confidence.
He patted Lin Bei's shoulder and said earnestly: "But you, kid, must not slack off just because you have my protection!"
"Our goal is to stop the longevity plan!"
"Those old Dengs in the radical faction are all very powerful. With your current small body... you can't resist them at all!"
"Besides, you have been very popular in the battlefield space of all races during this period. I believe they have noticed you. It won't be long before they will attack you."
"So, young man, you have a long way to go now!"
Lin Bei heard this and looked at the smug Lord of Lieyang Palace indifferently, and suddenly smiled and asked: "You said... If I take back the Wanxiang barrier immediately, what will happen to you?"
When the Lord of Lieyang heard this, his smile froze and he was sweating profusely: "You just made a vow to the Heavenly Dao! You can't do this!"
"What do you think?"
Lin Bei smiled.
"... Well, come on, tell me, what are your requests?"
The Lord of Lieyang Palace lost his momentum like an eggplant hit by frost.
"It's very simple. I need you to declare war on those radicals directly from today!"
Lin Bei said calmly: "Since we are cooperating now, we must deepen the cooperative relationship. What do you think?"
The Lord of Lieyang Palace was distressed when he heard this.
He kept cursing himself in his heart.
If I had known this, I would not have provoked this kid with words!
Now it's all right, I've got myself into it completely!
Damn, this kid... is really full of bad water!
However, while the Lord of Lieyang Palace was still cursing in his heart, Lin Bei was already looking at Lieyang Palace with a smile on his face.
"Well... your Lieyang Palace is also very good. It seems that the speed of time flow is different from that outside. If I practice here, I can definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort. Since you also said before that I am in danger now, why not... give this palace to me directly?"
"..."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace was mad when he heard this.
But facing freedom, he could only endure it.
He forced a smile on his face: "If you like it, then I will give it to you. But..."
"Just what? Do you have any other requests?"
Lin Bei smiled at the Lord of Lieyang Palace who was tangled.
"Ahem... No, no, no, no, no other requests, you worry too much."
The Lord of Lieyang Palace waved his hand hurriedly when he saw this. He now understood that this kid... was obviously trying to set a trap for him, so that he could go a step further and make a fortune from him.
You know, as a senior member of the Zhutian Space Chamber of Commerce over the years, he has a lot of good things on him.
We must keep them!
We must never let this kid take away even a single wool!
Seeing this, Lin Bei nodded with some reluctance: "Is that so... OK then."
To be honest, he also wanted to use the senior member status of the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce of the Lord of Lieyang Palace to seek some benefits for himself.
Now it seems that the other party is very vigilant, so let's wait for an opportunity in the future.
After all, it's not easy to catch a sheep and pull it hard.
However, what makes Lin Bei happy is that this Lieyang Palace seems to have stored a lot of treasures that the Lord of Lieyang Palace has not had time to collect. He saw through the Eye of Insight that there are many legendary materials, which can be used to strengthen his game login to the legendary level.
In other words, in the next period of time, he can happily brush the attributes again.
...
On the Aquamarine Star, the Lighthouse Country has gathered a group of heavenly-level strongmen and came to the airspace near the sea area of Jiuzhou Country, ready to take action.
They have only one purpose for this trip - to use tough means to force Kyushu to hand over the mysterious strongman who caused huge property losses in Amaterasu, and let him go to the Blue Star Military Court in Shanghai to enforce global arbitration on him!
To this end, they have gathered hundreds of heaven-level strongmen from all over the world to exert pressure.
They believe that this action will definitely succeed!
At that time, not only can they take the opportunity to get rid of a Kyushu strongman, but they can also use some means to secretly dig out the secrets in the other party's body. Maybe... in the near future, they can also cultivate a super strongman with such powerful strength?
It's exciting to think about it.
