Chapter 1203: The Contributions of Major Forces (First update, seeking everything)

Even if the Green Wood Longevity Cat broke through to the Demon Saint rank, Li Zhangsheng would not have any extra thoughts; he would still be the same as before, at most helping out when encountering a strong enemy.

After putting these Spirit Beasts away, Li Zhangsheng still felt a bit of regret in his heart; the subject this time was Datou.

Logically speaking, Datou, who possessed the Water Profound Meaning Origin Crystal, had the highest probability of breaking through, yet the result was a failed breakthrough.

On the contrary, the secondary ancestral Red Dragon, Round-Rolling, and the Purple Firmament Leopard-Lin Beast, which had no resource assistance, completed their breakthroughs; truly, world affairs are unpredictable.

However, this was also normal.

In terms of breakthrough probability, Datou, possessing Epic quality, had a 30% success rate on his own, plus the 50% from the Water Profound Meaning Origin Crystal; the amplification effect of the Emperor Flowing Plasma could be ignored.

Even so, it was not guaranteed to break through, and the occurrence of a low-probability event was perfectly normal.

Most importantly, Li Zhangsheng had used many Mystery Crystals and Profound Meaning Origin Crystals (not counting secondary ones) in the past, and this was the first time he had failed until now; the success rate could be considered quite high.

Gambling on probabilities is always a matter of winning and losing; it is just a pity for a precious Water Profound Meaning Origin Crystal.

Even so, having four Demon Pets break through to the Demon Saint rank at once, plus the Green Wood Longevity Cat as an extra, still exceeded Li Zhangsheng's expectations.

Originally, in Li Zhangsheng's view, based on the breakthrough probability, it would convert to only two or three Demon Pets breaking through to the Demon Saint rank; now that it exceeded his expectations, his mood was naturally excellent.

Taking advantage of the fact that it was still night, Li Zhangsheng and Ning Bizhen naturally did not waste time and began to cultivate Mental Power after returning to the palace.

In the period that followed, under the promotion of interested parties, the deeds regarding the Emperor Flowing Plasma began to spread at an exaggerated speed.

It was not just the Langya Kingdom, but it was spreading rapidly toward the entire southeastern region.

For a time, the winds rose and the clouds surged.

Those Langya Kingdom major forces that possessed free quotas had tasted the sweetness and were naturally flocking to it, looking forward to next year's free quotas even more.

After those small forces received the news, they were naturally envious, jealous, and hateful toward the major forces; some small force leaders who possessed treasures matching those listed by Li Zhangsheng began to struggle internally—on one side was a family heirloom, on the other was an Emperor Flowing Plasma quota, which left them agonizing.

Because the Emperor Flowing Plasma quota had the opportunity to allow a force to reach a higher level, these small forces often chose the latter.

However, not many days later, a piece of news began to spread, like a basin of cold water poured onto the heads of the major County Gentry level forces.

The reason was simple: next year, the free quotas for County Gentry level forces would be cancelled; to obtain an Emperor Flowing Plasma quota, one must exchange it for treasures, and the more precious the treasure, the more quotas one would obtain.

At the same time, this also shocked the Famous Clan level and even King level forces, as this meant their status was also unstable; judging by the current situation, their free quotas might be cancelled or reduced in the next year or two.

Having tasted the sweetness, how could the leaders of the major forces not be anxious? Thus, the leaders of the major forces all wanted to visit Li Zhangsheng.

Unfortunately, they could not even see Li Zhangsheng's face.

However, Zuo Qiulin had a headache; the leaders of the major forces could not find Li Zhangsheng, so they naturally could only find him, which kept him so busy he could not touch the ground.

However, Zuo Qiulin was a King after all; in terms of status and strength, he possessed an overwhelming advantage, and in the end, he handled these problems with a relatively strong posture.

As for the families of the Butterfly King Luo Qingning and the Flame King Qin Mingqing, they never came to add to the chaos from beginning to end, because the two King Families had long ago received Li Zhangsheng's promise that their free quotas would not be reduced.

Buying off the two King Families was not only conducive to improving the favor of the two Kings, but also effectively divided their relationship with the various major families.

As vested interests, the two King Families naturally had to stand up for Li Zhangsheng.

It was not until half a month later that the turmoil finally calmed down, and Li Zhangsheng finally came out of seclusion.

At this moment, his Mental Power was already on the verge of perfection, and in a few more days, he would be able to attempt a breakthrough to a Double-Character King.

In addition, the efforts during this period also allowed Li Zhangsheng to grasp the basics of the Great Deduction Technique; just the basics alone benefited him greatly and allowed his deduction ability to obtain a long-term improvement.

This also made Li Zhangsheng attach more importance to the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant; this thing had a mysterious origin, but the Three Thousand Great Daos it contained were truly extraordinary.

As for other aspects, there were not many achievements, but purifying the Abyss Consciousness for these half a month was enough to equal the amount of the previous three months, allowing Li Zhangsheng to obtain a considerable amount of Merit Profound Yellow Qi and World Power.

It must be mentioned here that the concentration of Abyss Consciousness and Demonic Qi near the Sky Fortress had dropped by a grade, allowing the Sky Fortress to occasionally see sunlight.

According to Li Zhangsheng's estimation, I am afraid that in a few months, the Abyss Consciousness near the Sky Fortress would be completely purified.

Without the protection of the Abyss Consciousness, the demons would be like vampires exposed to sunlight, and their strength would be greatly suppressed by the Heavenly Dao Consciousness.

When that time really comes, the Abyss Gate suppressed by the Sky Fortress would probably no longer be able to pose a major threat to the Langya Kingdom.

"Now that the Gate of Light and Darkness has become a Langhuan Supreme Treasure, perhaps there is a possibility of purifying the Abyss Gate."

Thinking of this possibility, Li Zhangsheng's heart became more and more eager.

If it were really feasible, the significance to this world would be self-evident; there would definitely be a great descent of merit from heaven.

At the thought of this, Li Zhangsheng's breathing could not help but quicken a little.

If it were feasible, then condensing the Merit Golden Wheel could be put on the agenda; at that time, as long as one was in the Fairy World, it would be equivalent to having an extra permanent protective talisman, and then those petty people who wanted to deal with him would have to weigh the consequences carefully.

Li Zhangsheng suppressed the excitement in his heart and took the initiative to meet Zuo Qiulin.

Soon, Zuo Qiulin finished reporting what had happened over the past half month.

Li Zhangsheng expressed his satisfaction; although Zuo Qiulin was a bit cunning, he was definitely a rare talent, allowing him to focus his energy entirely on cultivation without being troubled by many miscellaneous matters.

At this time, Zuo Qiulin showed a troubled expression and continued: "His Majesty, I have indeed collected many treasures and Spirit Beasts that meet your needs during this period, but two of the treasures are too valuable and exceed my Authority, so only you can judge them."

"Interesting!"

Li Zhangsheng's eyes lit up; although he did not know what kind of treasures they were, he could be sure that these two were definitely World Wonder level treasures.

Only World Wonder level treasures would exceed Zuo Qiulin's Authority and require him to make a decision.

"Quickly present them!"

Soon, Zuo Qiulin solemnly placed the two items in front of Li Zhangsheng.

The first was a fire-red crystal; as soon as it was placed in front of Li Zhangsheng, the temperature in the entire palace rose sharply, and some items with low melting points even showed signs of being ignited.

The second was a green-skinned gourd, which looked plain and unremarkable; it was unknown whether the gourd itself was miraculous or if there was a treasure hidden inside the gourd.
