The top of the Immortal Ascension Platform was empty, but the bottom of the Immortal Ascension Platform was bustling with people!
The closest ones were a dozen Yuanying Big Monsters. In addition to the initiator Three Crawlers, there were also Tiger Monsters, Wolf Monsters, Ape Monsters, and Eagle Monsters. These monsters were the real fighting monsters. Their strength was stronger than the Three Immortals. Their purpose of gathering here was very clear. They wanted to prevent the Three Immortals from causing trouble!
On the outer layer were the Golden Core demons of Ox and Horse Plain. Going further out in order, there were Foundation Establishment and Qi Refinement little demons, numbering in the thousands. They were all gathered here, waiting for the birth of a new master!
Since they were monsters, they basically had some spiritual intelligence. They had already seen the decline of the Three Immortals. Things were obvious. If the Three Immortals really had the ability to make rain, wouldn't they have done it long ago? They had been unable to do anything until now. If the Three Crawlers in the Desert could change the drought, they wouldn't mind changing their master!
Water was more important than anything else for life!
As for the cultivation environment in the Deserted World of Silu, although there were no humans here, the overall structure was slowly and subtly influenced by the human system after a long time of limited contact. It was not completely brainless fighting between monsters, especially when two groups of monsters had a dispute!
Since the Three Crawlers couldn't drive the Three Immortals away by force, they could only think of a way through the rules. Praying for rain was a conspiracy they had been plotting for decades. From the beginning of the small drought to the current thousands of miles of barren land, their purpose was to gain prestige through praying for rain and occupy the Niu Ma Plain openly! In this regard, the Three Immortals were still too slow. The only one who was a bit cunning didn't pay attention to it at all.
When the Three Immortals arrived, the situation was basically settled. The Big Monsters present had already reached a consensus. The so-called praying for rain was just a ceremony for the Small Monsters to see!
They were very clear that the Three Crawlers praying for rain would definitely succeed, but the Three Immortals would definitely fail! Because there was only one big river on the side of the Niu Ma Plain, the Jiao Jun!
Who could change Jiao Jun's decision?
Water was unique to any living being or celestial body. Therefore, among the demon beasts of the West Lu Wasteland, the position of aquatic demon beasts was very special. They might not be the strongest, but they could influence the distribution of water resources in a large area. This made their position particularly important. No one was willing to offend them, and in the end, their territory would either be drained or flooded.
The Three Immortals ushered in the big day of praying for rain in isolation and helplessness!
They still had some friends, but distant water could not quench present thirst. There was not enough time, and even if they gathered their friends, it would just be another fight, which would not solve the problem. Friends would always leave, so how could the three of them deal with the hostility around them?
Most importantly, the decades of drought had caused them to lose the support of their demonic hearts. This was the root of their failure!
Demonic beasts didn't have as many rules as humans when it came to praying for rain. They also didn't have three animals as offerings. If they did, they should put three people up there!
As the presiding priest, the tiger monster announced the rules of praying for rain. It was very direct and straightforward.
"Each side will send one person up to pray for rain. The time limit is 45 minutes. If the rain doesn't come, it will be considered a failure!
Each side is only allowed to go up there three times! There will be no delay! Whoever deliberately makes trouble in the process of praying for rain will automatically admit defeat!
This time, praying for rain is the request of many people in the Niu Ma Plain. It is a big event related to the lives of demons! Whoever succeeds will be in charge of the Niu Ma Plain! If both sides fail, they will choose another superior monster. We can't let the plain dry forever! "
The Three Immortals were speechless. The procedures had been arranged, so they couldn't refuse. Their small group of three looked pale and powerless in front of the big groups around the Niu Ma Plain. They could only bear it silently and hope that the weather would change in the matter of praying for rain. After all, even demonic beasts of the Water Nationality couldn't completely control the natural climate change.
The day of praying for rain was chosen very well. The sky was covered with lead clouds and a storm was coming. If such a scene was elsewhere, it would be a proper rhythm of rain. However, in the Niu Ma Plain, they had seen such scenes too many times in the past decades. No matter how thick the clouds were, they were dense and didn't rain. They had to wait for the clouds to drift to other places before it rained. It was also very strange!
Therefore, even if the rhythm of rain was obvious, the monsters didn't dare to expect it to really rain. They pinned their hopes on the ability of their new master.
Ma Li looked serious, "Second brother, third brother, we have to strive to be the first to go on stage to pray for rain. I see that the rain clouds are accumulating, the wind is blowing, the swallows are flying, the toads are coming out of their holes, the ants are moving, the fish are floating, the earthworms are going on the road, and the chickens are not entering the nest … Maybe they predicted that there would be a heavy rain here, so they deliberately set a trap for us!
We should take the initiative to gain the upper hand and use the power of heaven for ourselves. If we are lucky enough to get it, the dust will settle. Before the weather changes, who will doubt our position in the Niu Ma Plain? "
Wild Boar nodded in agreement. This was the right thing to do. Under such weather conditions, only a fool wouldn't know how to make use of it!
Boss Ma went up to draw lots and guessed with Jiao Chi. Under the witness of many Yuanying big monsters, he came back dejectedly not long after!
Wild Boar comforted him, "Big brother, don't be discouraged! They are like snakes and rats in the same nest. They have already colluded with each other. What we can think of, they can also think of. No matter which one of us three brothers goes up, the result will be the same! Hehe, the weather changes according to people. How can it be controlled casually? Who knows, maybe if we go up early, it will only benefit us brothers! "
These were purely comforting words! There was no other way. They were meat on the chopping block. Now, the three of them could only hope that the heavens would open their eyes. They couldn't count on anything else!
Jiao Chi was immensely proud of itself as it leaped onto the high platform. This was the plan that the three of them had been plotting for decades in the desert. Today was the day to complete it!
Standing on the high platform, it revealed its original form. It was a huge sand snake with its head raised to the sky. There were two horns on its head, indicating that the Jiao Chi was closely related to the dragon race by blood. It was not completely unreasonable to say that there was a dragon in the sky and a snake on the ground!
The dragon race was recognized in the Cultivation World as the ancient beast that was best at summoning the wind and summoning the rain. As a distant relative of the dragon, the Jiao Chi was the first to go up this time because it didn't want to give the Three Immortals even the slightest chance!
Moreover, it had already made proper arrangements to summon the clouds and summon the rain. How could it have the ability of a water demon beast? Other than the dragon horn on its head, it wasn't a real dragon horn but more like a deer's horn. It lived in the desert and didn't know anything about summoning the rain!
But it didn't matter. It had friends who knew how to curry favor. That was enough!
On the high platform, the snake twisted its body and flicked its tongue. It was just like a human swindler who lured a god into his body. It was just to attract attention and prove that it had used all its strength!
This was a necessary action. The great demons of the Yuanying understood this, but the thousands of lesser demons didn't!
In the midst of the act, the snake shook its tail and a rain talisman flew into the clouds. This was actually just for show. What kind of talisman could cause rain to fall over a thousand li?
It was just a message!
The moment the rain talisman entered the clouds, thunder roared and lightning flashed. The thousands of lesser demons below cheered in unison.
It was really going to rain!
