Chapter 1480: Mangshan Demon Emperor Enters Longshe Shan

Deep in the Mangshan Mountain Range.

In an area shrouded by a Formation, three people appear here; the surroundings are filled with mist, and Spiritual Sense cannot probe it.

Diewumeng said to the two: "The Mangshan Demon Emperor wants to go to Longshe Shan, but he dares not go; he wants us to scout. This time he has no choice but to go."

"Longshe Shan is dangerous; if we can enter and make a deal with that person inside, it would also benefit us, but unfortunately we cannot see him; even if we enter the Formation, that person will not see us."

"I don't know what agreement the Luotian White Snake Clan reached with him, making him trust them alone."

Bee King pondered: "What do you think about us trading with the Luotian White Snake Clan?"

Black Tiger shook his head: "Impossible; the Luotian White Snake Clan doesn't trust us, so we can't trade. The medicinal pills they'd trade aren't enough for themselves—how could they spare any for us, unless?"

The three exchanged glances; Diewumeng lowered her voice: "It's not impossible. We can reach an agreement with them and jointly oppose the Mangshan Demon Emperor. The Demon Emperor will certainly not let us go easily, nor will he let Bai Xinlan and the others go. If he doesn't die, we will continue living like this."

"Bee King, Black Tiger, you all know the Mangshan Demon Emperor's character. He has just revived and hasn't restored his cultivation, so he needs us and also fears us. Once his cultivation recovers, our existence becomes optional; he can easily breed a new batch of Demon Kings."

"The Mangshan Mountain Range teems with demon beasts; finding a few with pure bloodlines to raise is not difficult."

"They cannot earn the Mangshan Demon Emperor's trust, just as they would not trust him."

"Between them, there's no reputation left; they only want to kill each other, by any means. Once they find an opportunity, they won't let the other… live."

"Diewumeng, we naturally know this; the problem is the Mangshan Demon Emperor has many schemes and many backup plans. You can't guarantee you really killed him—what if, like Mangshan, you got hit too?"

"We can't be sure he's completely dead; it would be better to let him fight the Luotian White Snake Clan. Then we can find time to cultivate. Once we take that step, even the Mangshan Demon Emperor cannot act against us."

Bee King believed only one thing: that his own strength matters more than anything; external things are ultimately external.

Only one's own strength can guarantee everything.

Among demon beasts, strength is fundamental.

Black Tiger nodded: "What Bee King said is correct; our strength still isn't strong enough. Otherwise, the Mangshan Demon Emperor wouldn't dare treat us this way."

"Diewumeng, your proposal seems feasible; Bee King's suggestion can also be tried. Let's try each—who knows, maybe one will succeed."

"In short, we need medicinal pills and resources now; otherwise, it's unlikely we can rapidly raise our cultivation."

Longshe Shan is crucial.

"They all know we must find that person early, make a deal, obtain medicinal pills; then we'll have confidence to rise swiftly."

"Of course, they also have their own ways to get some medicinal pills, but those pills are low-grade; for them they're optional—what use is obtaining such pills?"

"Nothing compares to the pills produced by Longshe Shan. Know that Longshe Shan can produce an eighth-grade pill, the Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill; so perhaps other eighth-grade pills could also be produced?"

"They don't need eighth-grade pills; seventh-grade would suffice—but they don't have any."

Diewumeng looked at the two, pressed her hand: "If so, then each do as they think; let's see who can succeed."

Bee King nodded: "Good."

Black Tiger turned and left; the three went their separate ways.

Diewumeng walked a stretch, turned back, looked at the two, and shook her head: "They still don't see the essence of things. Bai Xinlan won't easily cooperate with them, nor give medicinal pills; even if she did, she'd only give third- or fourth-grade pills—what good would that do?"

"Perhaps I can go directly to Longshe Shan and trade with that person; if successful, taking that step would not be without hope."

She gazed toward Longshe Shan and fell into thought.

Five days later.

Inside Longshe Shan.

Qinglong Daoren waited several days, but no enemy came; the Luotian White Snake Clan's crisis was resolved. Now they handle clan affairs. The Mangshan Demon Emperor's move this time made the clan understand a truth: weak small tribes ultimately become others' food.

Just farmed food; if needed, they'll become food again.

The Luotian White Snake Clan fell into frenzied cultivation; they needed to rapidly increase strength—even Bai Xinlan did the same, taking pills, training, constantly raising cultivation and strength, not wanting to be sliced again.

Inside Longshe Shan peace returned; outside, many Luotian White Snake Clan members stared, not allowing outsiders to approach.

No one approached; Huang Yan was busy too. His two sons naturally wouldn't return; at least they wouldn't come back easily—if he kept them, wouldn't that be a huge loss?

This left Qinglong Daoren bored—aside from cultivation, it was still cultivation.

His cultivation rose rapidly; with the support of his true form, he only needed his cultivation to keep up, and other aspects would follow.

No need to worry; just raise true qi, accumulate enough, and a breakthrough will come naturally.

The Azure Dragon Canon is also a top-tier technique; no need to overthink—at least for now, just follow the steps and cultivate.

His strength directly soared to the peak of the Nine Heavens of Seeking Dao; soon he will enter the Asking Truth Realm. These days he hasn't spared effort in cultivation.

Right after breaking through, he left seclusion to relax his mood; himself also changing in relaxation, every moment transforming.

"My cultivation rises quickly; I need to consolidate for a while, then rush the Asking Truth Realm."

"Ask True Ask Dao Second Realm is not easy to break through; once broken through, I'll no longer need to worry about them. On the contrary, the Mangshan Demon Emperor—this demon—unexpectedly chose this way to be reborn; this demon deserves extra attention."

"Fortunately, his cultivation and strength haven't recovered; the threat isn't as great as before, so I can also relax a bit."

According to his estimate, the Mangshan Demon Emperor wants to fully recover; at least it needs some years. Without opportunity, it could take decades quickly, or up to a century slowly.

Adding that his action this time failed, the time has been prolonged.

And he certainly won't give up; he'll seek other methods. So what method could let him quickly restore his strength?

The answer is only one: medicinal pills, preferably eighth-grade. Since he wants to obtain pills, he can only come find him. Qinglong Daoren wore a bitter expression; he had already thought of this step, but seeing him appear outside the Formation, he couldn't help a bitter smile.

"He, still came."

"The true form side also needs to be notified to let him come; otherwise, it could… be troublesome."

He worried greatly about the Mangshan Demon Emperor; this demon doesn't follow the usual playbook.

Must prepare in advance.
