Chapter 1787 Heading to the Dragon Palace
Chapter 1787 Heading to the Dragon Palace
The main force of the Heavenly Demon Army suffered a major defeat.
The number of dead and injured was countless.
The arrival of the Heavenly Demon King failed to reverse the defeat. Instead, he retreated in humiliation after Chen Wanli repeatedly called him a "lowly servant girl."
The Dragon King was indeed present, and he tolerated being falsely accused by Chen Wanli?
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who among the gods could believe it was true?
Chen Wanli has "won another gamble".
In fact, from the very beginning, when they heard Chen Wanli's speculations about the motives of the Dragon King, Ye Zhenjun, and even the Heavenly Demon King, they all agreed with him!
Despite the recognition, given the huge gap in strength, doubts remain about how things will develop.
Ultimately, things unfolded exactly as Chen Wanli had envisioned.
The Dragon King's unexpected appearance made everything even more favorable.
Rather than luck, it's more accurate to say that Chen Wanli won this game through fearlessness in this treacherous game of human nature.
"We just received news that part of the Heavenly Demon Army has gone to support the Kuafu and Fangfeng clans. Should we go and provide support there?"
After the situation was settled, Lei Jiang walked up to Chen Wanli and asked in a low voice.
Chen Wanli immediately caught a hint of something in the voice and raised his eyelids slightly: "Do you think there's something wrong with the two of them?"
Lei Jiang had already realized that Chen Wanli was more shrewd and astute than the old monster, so he was not surprised that he was recognized as soon as he showed a little bit of his true nature.
He thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to say. It just feels like their words and actions are a bit contradictory!"
"Oh!" Chen Wanli responded, patting Lei Jiang on the shoulder: "We still need to provide support, understand?"
Lei Jiang thought for a moment and said, "If anything seems amiss, just..."
He made a slashing motion.
Chen Wanli's lips twitched: "Two Nascent Soul cultivators, you think you can just kill them like that?"
"But we have Chen Shenzu backing us up..." Lei Jiang smiled awkwardly.
“I’m going to the Dragon Palace to collect the goods. There are only two of them. They can’t cause any trouble, so there’s no need for me to make a special trip.”
Chen Wanli waved his hand, saying that some problems may seem troublesome now, but they may not be troublesome in the future.
Furthermore, as a chess player, every piece must be used, even if it's exchanged with the enemy on the battlefield.
With proper handling, enemies can be turned into your tentacles.
Not to mention those who are opportunistic and fickle.
While it is essential to eradicate evil completely, there are certain timing considerations.
Lei Jiang pondered for a moment and then nodded. Chen Wanli's meaning was clear: whether they were friend or foe still needed to be observed and verified, and there was no need to take action now.
Given Chen Wanli's current strength and the cunning he has displayed, in the Demon Cave, only a handful of people, such as the Dragon King, the Heavenly Demon King, and the Demon Emperor, can rival him.
You don't need to do too much; just identify and fill in the gaps, and that will be enough.
"Let your ancestor lead the team. If they encounter the Heavenly Demon Army, charge straight through without holding back! Even if the two Demon Kings of the Demon Clan launch an attack in the short term, they will first seek revenge on the Dragon Palace!"
"After reuniting with Kuafu and Fangfeng, lead everyone to Endless City and wait for me! Be careful in everything you do!"
Chen Wanli didn't ramble on too much; Lei Jiang was a smart man.
Lei Jiang nodded in agreement.
For the gods, the Lunar Altar is a good place.
Moreover, they have no other choice now.
All we can do is cooperate with Chen Wanli to enter the Moon God Platform and purge the Soul Devourer.
At least the Moon Extreme Divine Platform was a cultivation ground planned by Chen Wanli for human cultivators, so there's no need to worry that Chen Wanli would abandon the divine race.
"Go. Call Xiang Dehong over here!" Chen Wanli nodded slightly.
Lei Jiang turned and left, and a moment later, Xiang Dehong arrived.
Standing in front of Chen Wanli, this "father-in-law" was actually a little nervous.
This son-in-law is now punching the Heavenly Demon King, scheming against the Dragon King, controlling the gods, and manipulating all forces in the Demon Cave.
“Chen Shenzu…”
As soon as Xiang Dehong spoke, Chen Wanli turned around with a smile: "Between father-in-law and son-in-law, we don't need to be so formal..."
"..." Xiang Dehong looked at that smiling face and could only think that it was a sign of someone who would eat people alive and spit out the bones, and that it was definitely not a good thing.
As Chen Wanli stated his request, disbelief flashed across Xiang Dehong's face: "You, you...this is very risky!"
"It's alright, it's just a precaution. In case we need it, we might not necessarily choose this place in the end!"
Chen Wanli smiled faintly.
"I have no choice but to give it a try. Otherwise, if I alert the demons and they have to change the boundary array of Buzhou Mountain, it will probably take quite a while!"
Xiang Dehong thought for a moment and then said.
"That's the way I came. I have some understanding of the formations on Buzhou Mountain, and the method to break and modify them is recorded in the jade tablet. You'll know once you see it!"
Chen Wanli handed over a jade tablet.
Xiang Dehong took the jade tablet, probed it with his divine sense, and after understanding its contents, a strange light flashed in his eyes:
"You truly are a genius in array formation! With this, I'm quite confident!"
"It's best to involve only people you trust in this matter! Send the rest to Endless City; I'll still have a use for them then."
Chen Wanli, still feeling uneasy, gave him a few more instructions.
Xiang Dehong knew that since it concerned the passage to the human race, Chen Wanli, the leader of the human race, must be very concerned.
However, he was somewhat puzzled and said, "As far as I know, the seal of the human race on the boundary passage is very powerful and is one-way."
Even the Demon King of Heaven and Earth could not easily break through the seal.
Even if we alter the array of the interdimensional passage to evade the demons' surveillance, you still cannot break through the seal and enter freely without a trace.
Unless Chen Wanli can get the human race to open the seal on their own initiative.
But as far as he knew, the Demon Cave and the Land of Heavenly Origin were in different spaces and communication was blocked.
Could Chen Wanli possibly have a way to contact the human race?
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiang Dehong regretted it; he shouldn't have asked such a confidential question.
Chen Wanli smiled and casually waved his hand: "We'll talk about that later. Just proceed with the plan for now!"
After selecting treasures at the Dragon Palace, one must proceed to the Moon God Platform.
Chen Wanli possesses the Divine Spirit Root provided by Ye Wutian. Once he achieves the Golden Body and transforms into a god, he will most likely be able to contact the Snow Wolf King through a soul contract.
At that time, we can find an opportunity, without disturbing the Demon King of Heaven and Earth, to bring Tang Lingyu and the others in and create conditions for their cultivation.
After arranging these matters, Chen Wanli returned to the flying boat. When he arrived at the mountain where the Dragon King was, there were four of them:
"Old Dragon King, let's go!"
"..." The Dragon King looked at the three women following behind Chen Wanli and his lips twitched. They really didn't treat him like an outsider!
A family trip to the Dragon Palace to select treasures?
"Are you really not afraid I'll turn on you?" The Dragon King said with a forced smile.
"Huh, what makes you say that, Old Dragon King? Aren't we allies? The kind of ironclad alliance that's supposed to explore the Moon God Platform together!"
Chen Wanli chuckled and said, "It's a real pity that True Lord Ye didn't come this time! Otherwise, we would be an ironclad alliance of three parties!"
Turtle almost stumbled, glancing at Chen Wanli with disbelief. This guy is truly shameless!
He is clearly a Nascent Soul God Ancestor in terms of combat strength, but he really doesn't have any of the baggage of a strong person!
Long Jihai coughed lightly: "So, what Chen Shenzu means is that the Dragon Palace has gained your friendship?"
"Of course! How could I possibly befriend a possessed old monster who is neither human nor ghost?"
Upon hearing Chen Wanli's words, the Dragon King's expression softened slightly.
Grandpa Turtle remained silent; this kid had truly grasped the Dragon King's thoughts completely.
"As long as your Yin-Yang Fire can suppress Soul Devouring, we can explore the entire domain of the Moon God Platform."
I only need to verify some information, and you can take any of the treasures within.
"You may allow the gods to settle there and build cities; that's entirely up to you."
The Dragon King said in a deep voice.
"The information being verified suggests that there might still be an old ghost on the upper level of the Moonlit Divine Platform, traces of the spirit world, or even the method of refining the void?"
Chen Wanli posed several questions in succession.
The Dragon King thought for a moment and then said, "You will know when you go there."
"Hmm, what if the Heavenly Demon King can't resist sneaking in too?" Chen Wanli stroked his chin and smiled knowingly.
"..."
One Hundred Thousand Demonic Mountains.
Inside the Ten Thousand Caves Hall.
When the Golden-Eyed Lion King saw the Demon King's "dull" body, he suddenly moved, and the next second he returned to his original position.
It immediately picked up its wine cup and laughed, "The Heavenly Demon Lord's move must be..."
Before he could finish speaking, he noticed that the woman's expression was off!
It didn't seem like a triumphant return after a show of force; it looked more like a humiliating defeat!
That a human could possibly make the Demon King suffer a setback? That's highly unlikely!
"Damn it, that old mudfish is absolutely awful! It's practically an old earthworm!"
The Demon King was furious and rebuked him repeatedly.
He tried to stand up abruptly, but his blood rushed to his head, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Yin and Yang Fires still managed to injure him to some extent.
The thought of Chen Wanli made it even angrier!
"This... the Dragon King attacked the Heavenly Demon Lord?" the Golden-Eyed Lion King asked incredulously.
"That old earthworm dares!"
"..." The Golden-Eyed Lion King's eyelids twitched. So it was that human who made the move?
That human race actually possesses such strength? It truly exceeds its imagination.
"We have to teach them a lesson! Otherwise, that old earthworm will be hogging all the spoils at the Moon God Platform!"
The Demon King wiped the blood from his mouth and said in a sinister tone.
"That's easy. Just leave the entire Dragon Palace and Phoenix Palace in the Demon Cave, and the Dragon King won't be able to cause any trouble."
The Golden-Eyed Lion King thought for a moment and then said.
"Go and do it!" The Heavenly Demon King narrowed his eyes.
"Okay, I'll go!" Lion King readily agreed.
"And while you're at it, give that human brat a beating and vent my anger!" the Heavenly Demon King added.
"a piece of cake!"
The Heavenly Demon King twisted his body and disappeared into the Ten Thousand Caves Palace in the next second.
When they reappeared, they had arrived at the Valley of the Demons.
"I'm here!" the Heavenly Demon King called out.
The majestic mountain ranges on both sides trembled violently, as if they were about to be overturned from the ground at any moment.
"No need to come out. I'm just here to let you know I'm going into the Moon God Platform," said the Heavenly Demon King.
"What are you going to do?" A deep voice came from underground.
"Let's watch the show! And beat up a couple of blind bastards while we're at it!" said the Heavenly Demon King.
"I understand. I will come down from the mountain to find you in a month."
"gone!"
The Heavenly Demon King walked out of the Earth Demon Valley step by step, and when he reached the entrance of the valley, he had already transformed into the image of a beautiful woman with a captivating charm.
Even the demon horns on his head have turned into two curved blades, which are clipped to his waist!
She resembled a beautiful young woman from the Miao region, exuding an indescribable eeriness!
