Chapter 785 Joining forces with the Stone Emperor
As he spoke, Taiyi's eyes flickered. Zhang Qian understood that facing the Stone Emperor who might possess all the treasures from the Ten Emperors' Tombs, even the god and demon Taiyi would be a little uneasy. If it weren't for the Stone Emperor's terrifying body that had reached the middle stage of the Immortal Body, Taiyi would have thought himself no match for him and would have attacked the Stone Emperor long ago.
Shi Huang was not a fool. He smiled coldly, “Only those bored people would believe these rumors. Although I am a congenital stone spirit and am not afraid of the infinite emperor Dao patterns in the Emperor’s Tomb, you should not think about it. The Emperor’s Tomb is not an ordinary place. The Emperor Dao patterns guarding the periphery are just some small tricks. I don’t have the ability to break into the truly powerful forbidden means. It is obvious that the Ten Emperors’ Family has already taken out the treasures from the Ten Emperors’ Tomb. The outside world just doesn’t know about it, but they slander me. It’s really unreasonable!”
The demon god Taiyi just laughed and didn't respond. From his look, it was clear that he didn't believe what the Stone Emperor said at all.
The Stone Emperor was too lazy to explain further, so he just waved his hand and said, "You saved my life before, and I promised to help you, but this help is not unlimited. I still have my own things to do. Even if the ancient god and demon sealed this time was severely injured and his body is not perfect, it is still an ancient god and demon, and you cannot deny it."
Tai Yi said in a serious tone, "Your Majesty the Stone Emperor, why are you so anxious? In the current situation, why don't you and I join forces? You also know my plan. Once my plan succeeds, coupled with the power of Your Majesty the Stone Emperor, this catastrophe will be nothing but a small matter. You can even get endless benefits from this catastrophe. What do you think, Your Majesty the Stone Emperor?"
Taiyi's words made Zhang Qian, who was far away, frown. He thought about it and began to understand why Shi Huang and Taiyi were mixed up together.
"Saved Shi Huang's life? Who can threaten Shi Huang? It seems that Shi Huang was restricted by his oath and promised, so he helped Tai Yi to do things."
The Stone Emperor thought for a while and said in a cold voice: "Completely join forces? Let's talk about it after your plan succeeds. You are not qualified to join forces with me now."
"you……"
Taiyi's face suddenly turned ugly, but he did not refute anything, because Shi Huang was telling the truth. Taiyi's cultivation was very high, reaching the realm of Half-Step Daluo Dao Zun, but compared with Shi Huang, he was one level lower. After all, Shi Huang was in the middle stage of Immortal Dao Body, there was no comparison.
Moreover, Taiyi's treasure had been broken at the Yao Chi Festival. The whisk containing three thousand small worlds was one of Taiyi's trump cards. Without this trump card, Taiyi's ability would inevitably decline a lot.
“Shi Huang, don’t look down on me. When my plan succeeds, it’s still uncertain who is stronger between you and me. Humph, this time I got this ancient god and demon from the city of the Xihuang Realm Envoy, which is also a pleasant surprise. But if you really want to join forces with me, you have to take action on the god and demon I told you about before. Now you have offended the Tiandao Sect and are the enemy of Emperor Pan. If you don’t join forces with me, you will die miserably in this catastrophe!”
Taiyi's half-threatening, half-bewitching words calmed Shi Huang down. He looked at Taiyi, and after a long while he said in a muffled voice: "Okay, I promise to join forces with you, but you humans are always cunning and accustomed to calculating. I have to be on guard. You must swear a great oath, and then I will trust you."
Taiyi paused for a moment, knowing that the Stone Emperor was not a fool and could not be deceived, so he had no choice but to swear the Great Dao Oath. He had been planning to join forces with the Stone Emperor from the beginning, and he had no regrets about swearing the Great Dao Oath now.
When the two of them sensed the response of the Great Dao, Shi Huang's expression became better. He looked at Tai Yi and said, "I didn't expect you to have some courage. Since you have sworn the Great Dao oath, I will naturally rest assured. Once I have subdued this crystal stone, I will help you suppress the ancient god and demon and complete your plan!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Huang left without looking back, but he was anxious to subdue the crystal in his hand.
Zhang Qian, who was hiding in the distance, was very interested in Taiyi's plan. Taiyi was a strong man who had lived for several eras. Not only that, Taiyi was also the only ancient god and demon who had not been suppressed. The reason why he was not suppressed by Emperor Xi was because Taiyi was very smart. In the ancient times, before Emperor Xi took action, he voluntarily gave up his body of ancient god and demon, and cooperated with Emperor Xi, allowing Emperor Xi to reshape a human body for him, and directly became a human created by Emperor Xi from an ancient god and demon.
This is of course a huge gap, but Taiyi had to do this, otherwise he would be suppressed by Emperor Xi and would not be able to exercise his freedom. He thought to himself that he was no match for Emperor Xi, so he consciously became a fence-sitter.
This caused Taiyi's reputation among the ancient gods and demons to be completely ruined, and he became the biggest traitor. However, Taiyi didn't care at all. After all, living freely was better than anything else.
Those gods and demons who did not give up their ancient bodies were all suppressed, and many of them lost their lives directly.
"Father, he..."
At this time, Tai Xuanzi spoke with a bad face, but was interrupted by Tai Yi: "Don't say more, joining forces with the Stone Emperor is the last resort for your father. With the Stone Emperor, your father's plan can be easily realized. By then, it will be the same with or without the Stone Emperor. Besides, this catastrophe is extremely dangerous. First it was the Tiandao Sect, and now even the Emperor Pan has been resurrected. Who knows how many old antiques will jump out when the catastrophe comes? Joining forces with the Stone Emperor is also a bit of a guarantee."
"By the way, have you found any clues in that city? Who is fighting in that city? The fluctuations of the previous battle were extremely shocking, and it actually reached the level of Daluo Immortal God. I don't know if it was an old antique hiding behind the scenes, or a strong man from the underground abyss who took action."
Tai Xuanzi shook his head: "There are no clues left. When I arrived, there was no living thing in the entire city. Only traces of the battle were left."
"Where is the Xihuang Realm Envoy? Have you seen his body?"
Taiyi seemed to attach great importance to the corpse of the Xihuang Realm Envoy, and asked anxiously.
Tai Xuanzi continued to shake his head: "No, we didn't find the body of the Xihuang Realm Envoy. He may have been taken away by someone, or he may have been reduced to ashes."
"What a pity. The Xihuang Realm Envoy is a cultivator from the Samsara Sect of the Samsara World. Although he is a human, he has no spiritual power, and his cultivation method is different from that of this world. If I could get his body, I might be able to see some secrets from it. Forget it, you go down. This dying ancient god and demon is still useful. It just happens to add some foundation to my god and demon body. It's a pity that this ancient god and demon was born without any natural magical powers."
"So that's how it is." Zhang Qian, who was far away, understood why the ancient god and demon did not use any magical powers and only relied on brute force to fight the enemy.
After Tai Xuanzi left, Tai Yi held the pale cauldron, looked at the ancient gods and demons suppressed in the cauldron, and smiled coldly: "You regard me as a traitor, but don't you know that in my eyes, you are just some refining materials! Now it is proved that my choice is right, and you are seeking your own death!"
