As the Progenitor Fiendess put the Bronze Soul Artifact away, her expression finally looked a bit better.
She looked past the crowd and looked at Lola.
『Are you a member of the Bramble Bird race?』 the Progenitor cautiously asked.
Ilya stood in front of Lola and continued: "That's right, we were sent by the Bramble Bird Kingdom to assist Sir Gu Qing Shan"
The Progenitor sensed the powerful aura from the other party's body, then recalled the legends of the Bramble Bird race, and finally became restless.
The Bramble Birds were the only species that could survive in the Mystic Zones and were willing to communicate with the outside world.
The Bramble Birds had countless treasures from the Mystic Zones, making them the wealthiest race within the 900 million World Layers.
Most importantly, this wealth could not be stolen.
Because —
The Saint Bramble Tree was the greatest living being in the Mystic Zones, even within the 900 million World Layers, it guarded the treasure trove for the Bramble Birds.
Other than the terrifying creatures of the Mystic Zones, no one in any other Zones was willing to offend the Bramble Birds.
The Strife Zones, Super Dimensional Zones, and even the Fallen Zones.
— — among the infinite worlds, not even evil creatures were willing to offend them.
This was because of a famous event that had happened in history.
30,000 years ago, a Bramble Bird Kingdom guard mysteriously went missing.
— — indeed, although the Bramble Birds' treasure trove cannot be coveted, the Bramble Birds can be killed.
Three days after the guard disappeared, the entire Bramble Bird Kingdom still couldn't find him.
The Bramble Bird King at the time immediately issued a bounty.
The king declared that if anyone was able to find that guard, as well as handle this matter to his satisfaction based on the inside information, they would receive the Bramble Bird Kingdom's bounty reward.
The reward for the bounty was a mountain of treasures from the Mystic Zones.
— — At the peak of the treasure mountain, there were three weapons. They were respectively Epic, Legendary, and Divine.
The Bramble Bird King said that in consideration of teamwork, these three weapons would be given to the three people who contributed the most.
As soon as the bounty was announced, the entire 900 million World Layers went crazy!
All the fighting stopped.
The experts all gave up on what they were doing.
Even the demonized had given up on their invasion plans and set off to find that Bramble Bird soldier.
All the top figures came out in full force.
In the face of such overwhelming power, the faction that imprisoned the guard was quickly discovered.
It was a very famous Starry Sky Empire.
The gigantic Empire once occupied 7 World Layers, standing on equal footing with all the forces in the galaxy.
Whether it was the height of civilization or the degree of power, the Starry Sky Empire was at its peak.
The Emperor of the Empire secretly gave the order to capture that Bramble Bird guard.
He hoped to torture the guard into submission and offering him the treasure of his own accord.
After this was exposed, within an hour, this interstellar empire was torn to shreds by the Combatants of the 900 million World Layers.
From then on, no one dared to go against the Bramble Birds.
The Progenitor Ghost Mother retracted her gaze and looked at Gu Qing Shan.
He actually has such a close relationship with the Bramble Birds?
…
…
…
That was strange …
How did Li Yang manage to catch him?
"Gu boy, you want to join hands with Li Yang to deal with the 100,000 demonic ghosts and 200 million demonized, what's your plan?"
The Primordial Ghost Mother looked at Gu Qing Shan and asked seriously.
This was the first time she looked at Gu Qing Shan seriously.
"Of course I do" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Let's hear it, I need to keep an eye on you, because this world can't exert the true power of us Tianma, I need to worry about Li Yang's safety"
"Very well, my plan is to fight with numbers" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Hm, go on"
"I'm done"
The Progenitor Fiendess squinted her eyes and slowly spoke: 『To deal with such a large number of enemies, your plan is only to use numbers to fight with numbers? Isn't that a bit too childish?』
"No, it's not childish"
Gu Qing Shan explained: "People tend to get caught up in battles where the enemy outnumbers the enemy, or when the enemy is ambushed and ambushed, but in truth, those are all desperate measures that can only be taken when there's no other way out, and most of them succeed through sheer luck"
He continued: "In the art of war, the best way is to use the strong to win against the weak, to fight with numbers"
"The strong will always win against the weak, so they can win; the many will always win against the few, so they can win — — - this is an unshakable truth, as well as the strategy with the highest chance of winning"
The Progenitor Fiendess' expression finally became a bit better and silently nodded.
She thought for a bit, then asked: 『That sounds reasonable, then what are the specific steps? What do you intend to do?』
Gu Qing Shan replied: "When a cultivator breaks through, lightning will descend from heaven and earth, countless evil creatures will appear, I might need to borrow some manpower from Li Yang"
『You mean, the evil creatures of the outer path that attack a cultivator when they break through?』
"Yes"
Gu Qing Shan looked at Li Yang and asked: "Since you're Tianma, you should be related to the evil creatures of the outer path, can you summon some of them here so that we can discuss this?"
Li Yang hesitated: 『Summoning the evil creatures is not a problem, but they aren't that easy to talk to』
Gu Qing Shan replied: "It's fine, business is business, even if we can't, we can still make friends so that we can meet again in the future"
Li Yang couldn't help it anymore and giggled: 『You're quite an interesting person, evil creatures all eat humans, yet you want to make friends with them』
『I only have a single soul, not enough for them to share, but if you cooperate with me, you'll get treasures, as well as 200 million souls to share, I'm sure everyone knows how to choose』 Gu Qing Shan replied.
Li Yang glared at him and said: 『Then I'll have to prepare a bit』
She formed a hand seal with both hands and chanted a long incantation to summon the other evil creatures.
Seeing this, the Progenitor Fiendess wanted to say something but stopped herself.
But in the end, she didn't say anything.
The other Tianma exchanged glances and sent their voices to each other.
『Look, they're making eyes at each other』
『Adulterous couple …』
『Mother doesn't care, did she not see it?』
『Do you think Mother can't see it?』
『Hah, let's all calm down, that's a Soul Artifact』
That's right, it's a Soul Artifact!
Silence.
Everyone felt a bit dejected.
Suddenly, a Divine Sense Transmission sounded again.
『Sisters, let me ask you a question, between me and Li Yang, who do you think is prettier?』
The Tianma all froze.
No one answered this senseless question.
But their gazes all turned to Gu Qing Shan.
This seemed to have opened a new door for them.
As if … a new kind of hope was slowly rising.
Gu Qing Shan walked to one side and gathered with Lola, Ilya, and the guards.
"There's a problem" Gu Qing Shan said.
"What is it?" Lola asked.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "I want to cooperate with the evil creatures to kill the demonized, so I need a binding contract as a guarantee. Otherwise, if an evil creature tries to cause trouble and backfires, it'll be a bit troublesome"
Lola took out a brand new book of contracts from her backpack and said: "This is very useful, it's binding on both sides of the contract, no betrayal is allowed during the duration of the contract"
"What if they betray us?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Those who betray us will be killed by the Law of the Contract" Lola replied.
Gu Qing Shan muses: "Killed? That kind of punishment, for evil creatures … "
Ilya had already begun to shake her head: "Laura, what you're using is the Spire contract that can be used by the infinite worlds, but evil creatures can't be judged with common sense. Even if the contract can take their lives, they might still be able to resurrect themselves"
"Then what should we do?" Lola asked.
Ilya smiled and said: "Did you forget about our Saint Bramble Tree's leaves?"
Laura suddenly came to a realization, then frowned and said, "But I didn't bring that thing."
"I did" Ilya replied.
She then took out a bag of green leaves and gave it to Gu Qing Shan.
"These are the leaves of the Saint Bramble Tree, each leaf contains an irresistible contract" Ilya explained.
"What kind of contract?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"You can't violate a specific oath"
"What's the punishment for violating the oath?"
"All of your abilities will be absorbed by the Saint Tree, and your soul will be turned into nourishment for the Saint Tree"
"That powerful? I'm afraid some evil creatures wouldn't believe me if I told them "
"As long as the evil creatures see our Bramble Bird race, they'll understand"
Gu Qing Shan was still a bit worried: "What if an ignorant creature like me appears?"
"… Very well, take out a leaf and put it in your hand, you'll understand"
Gu Qing Shan took out a leaf and put it in her hand.
At that moment, Gu Qing Shan felt her inner sight leaving this world.
The leaf gave off an immense power of Law, bringing Gu Qing Shan's soul across time and space to appear in front of a certain great and divine entity.
It was a tree.
An ancient tree that was over 10,000 meters tall.
But as Gu Qing Shan looked at it through her inner sight, he noticed that the shadow behind the Saint Tree contained a life force that he could only look up to.
This power passed through countless World Layers and continued to grow towards the very top of the 900 million World Layers.
Its power was so great, so miraculous, that one could only feel reverence without any hostility.
Sensing the great power that the Saint Bramble Tree gave off, Gu Qing Shan felt an unprecedented sense of shock.
At the same time, a thought was transmitted from the Saint Tree.
This thought was directly connected to Gu Qing Shan's mind, allowing him to understand a certain thing.
Indeed, if I make a certain oath to the Saint Tree's leaf, the Saint Tree will know.
Once I violate the oath, the Saint Tree will absorb all of my abilities, even my soul will become its nourishment.
This is its Law.
No one in the entire 900 million World Layers can go against its Law.
Gu Qing Shan quickly retracted her inner sight.
"How powerful!" he exclaimed.
Laura patted her backpack and replied: "That's right, my backpack is also made from the leaves and branches of the Saint Bramble Tree, so the things inside are basically stored directly on the Saint Bramble Tree. The Saint Bramble Tree only recognizes me, no one else can open this backpack"
Ilya added: "I once made a vow to the Saint Tree's leaf to protect Lola, if I can't do it, all of the power that the Saint Tree granted me will disappear, my soul will also be taken away by the Saint Tree"
Gu Qing Shan put the leaf back into her bag and spoke with satisfaction: "With such great power as a covenant, everything will be done, thank you very much"
Ilya waved her hand dismissively: "No need to thank us, this is what you should do"
"Gu Qing Shan, I'm willing to pay any price, as long as I can avenge my parents and my little brother!"
Lola's eyes were red as she pulled Gu Qing Shan's sleeve.
"Hm, don't worry, we'll definitely avenge them"
