The Fire Ant was greatly enlightened. "No wonder you were so proactive in the attack on the Tian Yuan Realm and even organized the army of the Nether Spring Kingdom to break into the Tian Yuan Realm as the main force before the Gold Crow Kingdom, the Sea Dominator Kingdom, and the Kingdom of Lion Butchers were fully prepared, even though the losses were huge!
"So, you were not doing it for victory at all but to plunder human beings and demons for experiments and test your 'achievements' in a real-life environment?"
"Exactly."
Elder Nether Spring burst into laughter. "The other demon emperors in the Pantheon of Demons all thought that I was being arrogant and confident that the strength of the Nether Spring Kingdom would be enough to deal a heavy blow to the Xing Yao Federation. They were more than happy to enjoy the fruits of my labor and watch the show from behind.
"But they didn't know that my head was much clearer than theirs. I knew that it was impossible to defeat the Xing Yao Federation and all mankind in a regular war!
"In the beast tides and the Battle of Dawn, I tested the many secret arts from the heritage of Chaos and improved them. I've learned a lot!
"The 'Nether World Watch' that can enhance their combat ability with demon cores is just one of my achievements. There are even more powerful forces lurking in the darkness!"
"Are you not scared that the strength of the Nether Spring Kingdom will be exhausted?" the Fire Ant asked coldly.
Elder Nether Spring smiled. "Didn't you say at the beginning that we were chaotic-blood demons in the first place? The secret cannot be kept forever. Once the truth is out, how will the nobles and warriors of the Nether Spring Kingdom listen to me?
"Since they are destined to be misunderstood, I might as well regard them as' fertilizers' and nurture a force that truly belongs to me!"
The Fire Ant sighed. "That explains a lot. No wonder the Nether Spring Kingdom surrendered the command of the Coalition Army of Demons without much struggle after the Battle of Dawn. I'm told that you even made a deal with Jin Tuyi and agreed to let him implement the Red Tide Plan.
"Before, I couldn't figure it out. Why did you compromise all of a sudden?
"Now, I understand. Be it the Battle of Dawn or the Red Tide Plan. The Battle of Dawn, the Battle of Dawn, and even the Coalition Army of Demons were just your disguise. "
"Yes."
"If Jin Tuyi wants to be the commander of the Coalition Army of Demons, just let him be. If he wants to carry out the Red Tide Plan, he can just carry it out. When his' Red Tide 'rushes into the heart of the Xing Yao Federation, it will be the time for my real plan to begin! "
The Fire Ant narrowed his eyes and said, "Big Brother, why are you telling me everything so frankly?"
Elder Nether Spring said softly, "If I'm sincere about cooperating with you, I'm willing to accept your offer. Do you believe it? "
Fire Ant was amused. He looked at himself and mocked, "Here and now, the word 'cooperation' does not seem to be very convincing at all!"
"It was my fault that I didn't tell you everything a long time ago," Elder Nether Spring said calmly. "But I had my reasons, too.
"Firstly, at that time, I was carrying out my own secret plan. We are in dire need of a shield to divert the attention of the Pantheon of Demons.
"Your Blade of Chaos is the most suitable shield," Li Yao said.
"Therefore, I simply watched the Blade of Chaos grow in secret and did nothing. I even provided convenience for you and helped Void Turmoil City and the Blade of Chaos to expand quickly. As I expected, they became a major problem for the Pantheon of Demons in the past few decades.
"As a result, the Pantheon of Demons was threatened by the Blade of Chaos inside and the Xing Yao Federation outside. Naturally, they could not spare any time to investigate me. Also, many of my studies and operations could have been carried out under the pretext of 'striking the Blade of Chaos and the Xing Yao Federation'!
"You have to consider risks in everything. If I had cooperated with you decades ago, I would have put all my eggs in one basket. Should anything go wrong, the eggs would have flown away."
"So," the Fire Ant said coldly, "you killed my elites and beat me into a cripple?"
"Otherwise," Elder Nether Spring said, "how could we have been so frank with each other? I know you too well. You are as ambitious as I am, and you are unwilling to be inferior to others! You wouldn't have agreed to cooperate with me unless you had no other choice.
"Besides, ten percent of your elites are not dead yet. They are only temporarily detained by me.
"If you agree to cooperate with me, I can release all of them. After the real Demon God Virus is produced, I can inject the first batch of them and turn them into the third life form, which is the most perfect life form!
"It will be the same for you, too!
"You and I have been stuck in the demon emperor level for years. I know that you have tried countless strengthening drugs but failed to improve your Cultivation. Are you willing to be trapped in the insignificant demon emperor level until you die? Do you not want to grasp the power that the Pangu once controlled in the primeval era and even surpass the Pangu and march to the ultimate level that nobody has ever set foot on before? "
The Fire Ant breathed heavily, and his voice turned hoarse. "What do you want?"
Elder Nether Spring licked his lips and said, "I want the secret arts to grow all the demonic plants in Void Turmoil City and the formulas of the strengthening drugs.
"Also, I know that the Blade of Chaos has countless secret bureaus and spies everywhere in the Blood Demon Sector. Tell me all the information you have.
"Also, I know that you have a secret research room outside of Void Turmoil City. I'm afraid that it is your real nest. I want the coordinates of the place and your latest research results.
"Of course, I will not take everything for free. I will trade my research results with you. It will be good for both of us if we exchange what we have!"
The Fire Ant stared at Elder Nether Spring for a long time. Shaking the chains on his body, he said, "I don't think I'm suitable for a deal right now."
"Of course, the venom chains cannot be unlocked," Elder Nether Spring said. "You can clean the spiritual stripes on your own."
While talking, he snapped his fingers. The tentacles that were full of neurons were freed from the Fire Ant and retreated to every corner of the cage.
The Fire Ant took a long breath in relief. He took off the remaining chains on his body and pondered for a moment. "Everything you said is too unbelievable. I need some time to think about it."
"No problem."
Elder Nether Spring agreed quickly. "I will stay in the Mausoleum of Chaos for a few more days until I excavate the dead body of Chaos. I believe that a few days will be enough for you to think it through.
"As long as you agree to cooperate, I will be willing to share whatever discoveries I find on the dead body of Chaos with you!
"Haven't you always dreamed of knowing the truth about how Chaos created the demon race?"
The Fire Ant looked at him. "What if I still turn you down after I think it through?"
Elder Nether Spring smiled. "The elites of the Blade of Chaos that you've brought are mostly the best experts of the chaotic-blood demons. They are the best test subjects for me.
"Including you. You are a test subject in the demon emperor level, which I have never used before.
"I really don't know what kind of powerful 'weapon' I can build with such a 'test subject' like you!"
"That's very straightforward of you," the Fire Ant said.
"Because there is no need to lie," Elder Nether Spring said.
The tusk cage behind him was opened again. Elder Nether Spring bowed with a smile and walked out without looking back.
Half of the Fire Ant's body was soaked in the acid. He was warming up his limbs that had been paralyzed for a long time, deep in thought.
Li Yao was anxious. If the Fire Ant really decided to cooperate with Elder Nether Spring, it would not be good news for the Tian Yuan Realm.
But he was more worried that Elder Nether Spring had not left yet. Neltharion did not fly to the front of the Fire Ant until it was hidden for more than an hour.
A cluster of vague demonic energy immediately enshrouded Neltharion.
The tentacles around the Fire Ant's body had all been separated. He was now able to make bigger movements and manipulate the demonic energy more easily.
"Do you believe Elder Nether Spring?"
Li Yao asked eagerly.
"He should be telling the truth. There is no benefit in making up such a bizarre lie."
The Fire Ant was solemn. His eyes were shivering. It was obvious that he had boosted his computational ability to the maximum, too.
"Then, are you going to cooperate with him?"
Li Yao's heart suddenly tightened.
"I'm telling the truth, but it doesn't mean that I'm telling the whole truth."
The Fire Ant King said calmly, "The most brilliant lie is to say that there are a hundred truths, but by slightly switching the positions of two of them, you will reach a completely opposite conclusion."
Li Yao was confused. "What do you mean?"
"It's very simple," the Fire Ant said. "If Elder Nether Spring really wanted to cooperate with me, he wouldn't have made things so complicated. He knew that I was willing to sacrifice everything for the survival of the chaotic-blood demons. Why did he have to fight me?
"As long as he made it clear that he was developing a new Demon God Virus that could significantly improve the combat ability of the chaotic-blood demons, was there any reason why I wouldn't cooperate with him?
"He explained all the details clearly. Only the reason for the conflict with me was too weak, so he only brushed it off."
"Therefore, my judgment is that he was hiding one or two critical facts that I would never have cooperated with him after I learned them!
"Therefore, he was not sincere at all. The only reason why he wanted to cooperate with me was because he wanted the files of the Blade of Chaos and my research results!
"I'm afraid that, if I really believed what he said and 'communicated' with him with all the secret arts and files, my subordinates and I would immediately end up as his experiment subjects!"
Li Yao thought quickly and asked, "Therefore, we can still cooperate?"
"Whether or not we can cooperate depends on what you want."
The Fire Ant said coldly, "If you have snuck into the Blood Demon Sector because you want to conquer this place and smear the brains of the demons? It's all smeared on your tracks and bayonets. What reason do I have to cooperate with you? I will only be killed a few days earlier! "
