"Good idea! If we want to suppress demon caverns long-term, tree kings are the best choice. The various demon caverns of the Mist province are all being suppressed by a great banyan tree right now. "
The King of Southern Yue clapped his hands. He was eager for the Banyan Tree King to take over the Green province and become the god of the province.
"Kid, you haven't disappointed me after all."
A streak of golden light shot over. Madam Teng had been forced into retreat by Little Ann, so she was obviously reluctant to accept this. Coupled with the fact that the battle had truly been chilling, she had been hiding in the shadows the entire time, waiting for an opportunity.
Chu Lie King said nothing in thought. He looked around. Everyone looked at him, waiting for his decision. However, apart from the Dauntless monk and the Unraging monk, both the Golden Cicada Spirit King and the King of Southern Yue would probably stand on Li Qingshan's side. As for his daughter, it went without saying. She basically seemed to be bewitched by Li Qingshan.
He could not help but sneer. "If I don't agree, you'll be forcing me to abdicate!"
Li Qingshan chuckled, but he did not deny it. He still had many things he needed to do. He definitely could not remain here for long.
"The Gate of Hungry Ghosts in the Myriad Ghosts Abyss has opened. If we ignore it, the Green province will become a land of death very soon," said Little Ann.
This point was also verified by the huge cavity to the south of the Green province cauldron.
"Your majesty, it looks like that's all we can do."
The Dauntless monk considered it for a while before also going up to persuade him. He did not want Great Buddha mountain to end up in the hands of daemons, but it was better than being taken over by demonfolk.
"The nine cauldrons are a symbol of vassals of Great Xia, so what's there to be reluctant about? And, when the Green province faced a disaster, has Great Xia ever sent a single soldier? Instead, it's me, your old enemy, who has come to help you."
The King of Southern Yue stood with his hands behind his back and said slowly.
Chu Lie King looked at the King of Southern Yue with a frown. The King of Southern Yue stared back without backing down. They were natural enemies. However, this grievance had been passed down from their ancestors. There were no specific grievances between them.
Chu Lie King could not help but think about what Little Ann had said about the snail's horn. Perhaps it was time to put an end to this. He let out a long sigh and finally nodded. "Alright!"
After a moment of determination, he completely cut off the connection with the Qingzhou Cauldron, turned around, and left.
"Your Majesty."
The Dark Queen stepped forward. She bowed gracefully, showing more respect to this frustrated man than usual.
Chu Lie King's stern expression softened a little. He looked back again. Little Ann was also watching him leave. He sighed in his heart. No matter what. The Ji Clan had finally produced a cultivator with a boundless future. As for how far she could go, it would depend on her fortune.
However, how could he be willing to fall behind his daughter? He took a deep breath and compared himself to the ten thousand worlds in the heavens. The fifteen thousand kilometers of the Green province was truly nothing more than a snail's corner. As a result, he let go and said to the Dark Queen, "Come on a stroll across the sea with me!"
"I understand," the Dark Queen said gently.
A streak of silver light rushed into the air. The King of Southern Yue rode the Silver Dragon King back to the Mist province with his honoured guests.
"Qingshan. I'll go meet up with the monks first. I'll be troubling you here, "said the Unraging monk.
"Go if you want to. Cut the nonsense! "
Li Qingshan said bluntly. After Chu Lie King completely severed his connection with the Qingzhou cauldron, he immediately felt much more at ease. He had benefited quite a lot from comprehending the laws of the world it contained.
"Damned disciple!" The Unraging monk bellowed before smiling to himself. "It still sounds better like that!"
However, when he turned around, he saw the Dauntless monk talking to the Golden Cicada Spirit King. He was extremely polite, which surprised him slightly.
"According to the seniority of the Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga, fellow Golden Cicada can be regarded as our senior." The Dauntless monk brought his palms together.
"You're too polite, abbot. How can someone who's been exiled be a senior?" The Golden Cicada Spirit King returned the gesture.
"This is an old custom of the Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga. Looking at it now, there are some omissions. You've protected the buddhist dharma and purged the demons, so the Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga owes you greatly. I'm willing to take back the order of exile in the name of the abbot. I wonder if you're willing to accept that?"
Only then did Li Qingshan understand the Dauntless monk's plans. Right now, the Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga was at its weakest. Not only had they lost their headquarters, but two of the four Monk Kings had died as well, and their other losses were innumerable. In these chaotic times, this was definitely not a good omen.
If he could invite the Golden Cicada Spirit King back to the monastery, then his strength would instead increase by quite a lot. In terms of battle prowess alone, the four Monk Kings probably would not be the Golden Cicada Spirit King's opponent even if they worked together.
He could not help but lament over the fact that all of these leaders were pragmatic.
If this had happened to other Daemon Kings, they probably would not have accepted it, but the Golden Cicada Spirit King's feelings for the monastery were extraordinary, so he did not treat his exile as some sort of injustice or humiliation. He brought his palms together. "Then thank you for your magnanimity, abbot."
The man and daemon hit it off immediately, meeting up with the monks and discussing the matter of rebuilding the monastery.
Jin Fugui and Yue Wuyang bade farewell to them too. Madam Teng was still reluctant to meet the Banyan Tree King, so she had vanished a long time ago.
In the blink of an eye, Great Buddha mountain fell from the sky. Only the sound of wind could be heard.
Little Ann hugged her knees as she sat on Li Qingshan's head, gazing at the crescent moon.
Li Qingshan smiled and closed his eyes, submerging his mind into the Green province cauldron.
Time passed in a hurry …
In Towering city, an ancient and soothing laughter suddenly rang out. The sea of trees surged.
On the northern edge of the sea of trees, a great banyan tree sped up, growing until it reached half the size of the Banyan Tree King. It lit up with brilliant light and gradually shrank, turning into a humanoid shape and making its way north.
Li Qingshan opened his eyes and smiled. "We're finally here."
With that, the Banyan Tree King arrived before Li Qingshan. He studied the spirit turtle with the huge cauldron on its back and praised with a smile, "You set off as soon as you heard the good news.
"As soon as you heard the good news, you immediately set off. Qingshan, your strength has increased by another level!"
"Same here. Let's take this Green province cauldron!"
"Alright, but we need to take it slow this time, just in case the demonfolk take advantage of the situation."
"Of course. I'll stay here for a while longer, all the way until you become a god of the Green province!"
The Banyan Tree King leapt into the Green province cauldron. A while later, the cauldron erupted with brilliant light, rushing into the sky!
Lush, green leaves surged out like a spring. A great banyan tree rose into the sky, and aerial roots extended and drooped down, wrapping around the Green province cauldron and covering it.
In the battle against the Demon domain, the Green province cauldron had been struck multiple times. Many fine cracks that were difficult to make out with the naked eye appeared on its surface, which made it convenient for the Banyan Tree King to extend his roots thinner than hair into it. Then, he used his countless branches to comprehend the laws of the world within.
"I've already comprehended a part of it. You can use it as a reference," said Li Qingshan.
Under the Spirit Turtle Transformation, his ability to comprehend and calculate became even more startling, so he passed this information to the Banyan Tree King.
"Hmm? You've actually comprehended it to such a level already. You sure are talented. You can save me quite a lot of time."
The Banyan Tree King sighed in amazement. With the experience of digesting the Mist province cauldron, his strength was incomparable to before. It was much easier this time, splitting the cauldron in an orderly manner.
At the same time, the Dragon Province cauldron shook violently in the imperial court on Dragon's Head Mountain.
A middle-aged man in bright yellow dragon robes and a crown on his head stroked the cauldron as he muttered to himself.
