Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 773: Fighting the Four Saints of the North Pole (1)

When people heard Chen Yun's question, no one spoke immediately.

Everyone seemed to be lost in thought, pondering the pros and cons.

After a moment, the Golden Eyed Hundred Eyed Ghost frowned and asked, "Why do you think the Four Saints of the North Pole are in such a hurry to appear?"

Master Guan laughed dumbly and said, "Why else? Their fighting power is insufficient, while ours is relatively intact. Now we have Lie Zi to help us. If we continue to fight under normal circumstances, we will definitely force out the Four Saints of the North Pole first, and then test out some details."

The Nine-Headed Bull Demon King is a demon after all, and he doesn't understand these things very well.

After hearing Guan Erye's explanation, he asked with some doubt: "Since we have the upper hand, why should we agree to their request?"

Guan Ping was well versed in military tactics and immediately explained, "It's very simple. The Khitan army is on a long expedition. The longer the war drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for the Khitan army. Whether it's the loss of soldiers and horses or the replenishment of food and grass, it will be very troublesome. So it's best for us to fight quickly and make the Khitan army move south as soon as possible to uproot the Jin court in a short time."

"I see." The Nine-Headed Bull Demon King understood a little, "Such a proposal is exactly what we all need, it seems that there is no harm in agreeing to it."

Chen Yun suddenly said, "If we only consider our respective needs, it is fine to agree to this, but have you ever thought carefully that if we send four people, we may not be able to defeat the Four Saints of the North Pole?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Nine-Headed Bull Demon King and the Golden-Eyed Hundred-Eyed Ghost fell silent.

It's not just the two of them, it's also the same with Zhang Tianshi, Lu Dongbin, the gods of thunder and others.

In fact, the question raised by Chen Yun has always been lingering in everyone's mind.

The four people who had previously decided to fight against the Four Saints of the Arctic were all very powerful.

Lu Dongbin is very powerful, Zhang Tianshi is also very powerful, and if Ge Tianshi has three volumes of heavenly books, he will also be extremely powerful. The only one who is slightly inferior is probably Changshengtian.

But no matter whether it is Lu Dongbin, Zhang Tianshi, Ge Tianshi or Changshengtian, none of them has absolute confidence in defeating the Four Saints of the North Pole.

Especially Marshal Tianpeng, this saint not only has a high level of cultivation, but also possesses two Taoist bodies that are unimaginable for ordinary people. It is very difficult to defeat him.

Seeing the silence of the immortals, Lei Zu slowly said, "Whether you can win or not, the battle has already come to this point. Unless you give up this Conferred God Battle, there is no way out."

"Yes."

"The Battle of the Gods has come to this point. We have no other choice."

"Let's talk about how to respond to the proposal of the Grand Marshal of the Skydome."

A group of people knew that this problem had to be solved immediately.

Zhang Tianshi said calmly, "The request raised by Marshal Tianpeng is very direct. That is, we should give up the advantages we have accumulated so far and fight them directly to decide the outcome. In the end, we will see who will force out the Half-Step Daluo first."

Master Xu nodded and said, "That's right."

Zhang Tianshi continued, "It can be seen that the Four Saints of the North Pole are very confident that they can defeat us, so he thinks this proposal is very advantageous for Luancheng."

Lu Dongbin and Tieguai Li nodded.

Zhang Tianshi suddenly asked back, "Why should we give up the advantage that you all fought so hard to build up?"

Wang E was stunned for a moment and said, "Didn't General Guan just say that the Khitan army's battle line is too long? If it is delayed..."

"What I mean is..." Zhang Tianshi interrupted Wang E and said, "Marshal Tianpeng came to us on his own initiative. It's obvious that they are anxious. We do hope to capture Luancheng as soon as possible, but we are not as anxious as them. In this case, why should we be led by the nose?"

Lie Zi smiled and said, "Indeed, the other side can make some requests. Can't you make some requests to Marshal Tianpeng? For example, if they ask us to send four people to duel, we can ask for five or eight people to gain the advantage in numbers. Or, if they ask for a fight, we can say that if we lose, we can send four people to fight again. The advantage in negotiation needs to be fought for by ourselves, not just accepted by others."

Chen Yun thought so too.

If it were any other time, he would just have to give orders directly, after all, he was the one in charge of the talisman.

The situation is a little different now. After the battle with the Four Saints of the North Pole, we will enter the real "finals", and Lei Zu will need to take action.

As mentioned before, whichever half-step Daluo is forced out first is likely to reveal some of his abilities, thus reducing the probability of winning.

Therefore, this battle between the Four Saints of the Arctic is particularly crucial.

The decision on who to send has already been made, so there is naturally nothing to say.

The problem is that now that Marshal Tianpeng has come to negotiate, it gives us room for bargaining.

If Chen Yun made a wrong decision at this time and forced Lei Zu to take action in advance, wouldn’t that be bad?
So there are some things that he is not suitable to say, and it is better to hear them from others.

After hearing Lie Zi's words, everyone looked thoughtful.

After a moment, Lü Dongbin took the initiative to say, "The only ones who are capable of fighting the Four Saints of the North Pole are Zhang Tianshi, Ge Tianshi, Changshengtian, Liezi, and me. The others may have a very high level of cultivation, but there is still a small gap between them and the Four Saints of the North Pole, so they are not suitable to fight at this time. Therefore, I think even if we make requests, we should make them within the scope of our combat power. For example, we can ask to send five or six people directly. Or, if it is really not possible and the opponent only allows us to send four people at a time, we can ask for one or two backup personnel to prevent a Taoist friend from losing and affecting the final victory. We can also make up for the loss of a Taoist friend in time, thereby increasing the hope of winning."

Changsheng Tiandao: "Chun Yangzi's suggestion is good. I have a few small additions to your suggestion."

Lu Dongbin stretched out his hand and said, "Please speak."

Everyone looked towards Changshengtian.

Chang Shengtian expressed his thoughts, "When we report the number of people and the number of rounds, don't report five or six, one or two rounds, but directly report ten or eight, three or four rounds. Otherwise, they will definitely lower the price, and we won't be able to achieve the number of people and rounds we expect for the fight."

This is true.

If you only say that five or six people will join the battle, the Four Saints of the North Pole will definitely bargain. Originally, they might have been prepared to send five or six people to participate in the fight, but in the end they would be suppressed to four or five.

The same goes for rounds.

It would be different if you reported a little more.

I ask for a sky-high price and you bargain, which makes it easier for me to achieve the number of people and rounds that I expect.

In addition, the opponent probably knows how many people on their side can fight against the Four Saints of the Arctic. If you report more numbers, they may mistakenly think that there are powerful saints like Lie Zi coming to help. The psychological pressure during the fight will become greater, and they may not be able to exert their full strength. After all, there are only four people in the Four Saints of the Arctic. If they lose, they really lose. If you can send a few more people on your side, or have a few more rounds, the Four Saints of the Arctic will definitely have to save some strength to prevent being defeated by the subsequent ones after defeating one, thus resulting in the loss of the entire battle.

Chen Yun understood all these principles.

Soon, everyone finished their discussion.

After listening to everyone's opinions, Chen Yun asked Lei Zu in a respectful manner, "Tianzun, what do you think?"

Lei Zu gave Chen Yun face, "You are in charge of the seal, no need to ask me, just make your own decision."

Chen Yun said: "Good, then I will talk to Marshal Tianpeng now."

……

Luancheng.

Zhou Tianxingdou and He Han Qunzhen were all sitting there in silence, waiting. Marshal Tianpeng had just put forward an opinion, which could be said to be the most suitable solution for their current situation.

If the other party really refuses, to be honest, there is nothing they can do.

Is it really going to drag on forever?

If you delay, they won't come to your door?

There was only one reason why Chen Yun didn't come to the door, and that was that he didn't want to cause any harm to the people.

But everyone understands one thing, that is, if Luancheng really insists on dragging it out and hindering the progress of the Battle of the Gods, sometimes the loss of lives is inevitable.

Just as everyone was waiting anxiously, a voice sounded from nowhere.

"Master Tianpeng, I have some small objections to your proposal."

coming!

Everyone looked serious.

Tian Peng Zhenjun responded solemnly, "Zhenren Chen, please feel free to speak."

Chen Yun's voice came over, "I have all the advantages here. If I agree to your previous request, it would be too disadvantageous. However, I have to give you face, Marshal Tianpeng, so I have slightly modified your proposal. We want to send ten people. How about it?"

Tian Peng Zhenjun said speechlessly: "Why don't you call all the sacred gods in the sky to beat us? No, this request is too much. I can't accept ten people. The most you can send is..."

He said as he looked at the others.

The numerous divine beings including the stars in the sky and the Milky Way exchanged glances immediately.

Immediately, Lord Yousheng stretched out five fingers.

Tian Peng Zhenjun understood, "You can only send five people at most, and you can't rush in all at once, but four against four. If someone loses, the remaining one can take over."

Chen Yun argued, "You were already at a disadvantage. Now we have to give up such a huge advantage. Sending only five people is too few. We need at least nine. Moreover, we have to split into two rounds. If you lose in the first round, you can take over in the second round. The extra person will take over whoever loses, just like you said, Grand Marshal."

Tian Peng Zhenjun was unwilling to agree, "Five people at most, no more."

Chen Yun said: "Then there is nothing to discuss. Forget it, let's stick to the original plan, or attack Luancheng directly!"

Upon hearing this, Tian Peng Zhen Jun's face changed.

The remaining group of saints all frowned.

Lord Yousheng made a gesture.

Tian Peng Zhenjun understood and responded to Chen Yun: "Zhenren Chen, please allow us to discuss for a moment?"

Chen Yun said: "Please."

After the conversation ended, Tian Peng Zhen Jun looked at the others and asked, "What do you think?"

Tianyou Zhenjun said: "Nine, two rounds, it's definitely not enough. Although it seems that only Chunyangzi, Zhang Tianshi and Liezi from Chen Pu's side can fight us, who knows if they will ask for help? If they ask for some people who are as strong as us, we will not be able to win in a round-robin battle no matter how strong we are."

Yisheng Baode Zhenjun agreed and said, "There are so many powerful people in the world. For example, Lie Zi suddenly appeared this time, who knows if there will be others next time? Chen Pu is a disciple of Zhongli Quan, and belongs to the lineage of Taishang Laojun. There are too many people to invite. Don't agree to a two-round battle of nine people."

True Lord Yousheng thought the same. "I think we should give them six people at most. This way, they won't be able to fight for two rounds. We just need to deal with the first person as soon as possible, and then save some energy to deal with the remaining two."

Tian Peng Zhenjun did not answer these words immediately, but sat there thinking for a moment.

After about ten seconds, he slowly said, "What you said makes sense. Let's take a step back. After all, they do have the advantage. Let them send out six people. If they still don't agree, let them attack Luancheng directly. We are not scared."

Tian Peng Zhenjun nodded slightly, "That's it."

After that, he sent a voice message to Chen Yun again, "Master Chen, I have carefully thought about your suggestion for a while."

Chen Yun said: "Please speak."

Tian Peng Zhenjun said: "I can only promise that you can send at most six people, and you can't rush in all at once. If someone fails, another one can take over. If you don't agree, then there is nothing more for us to discuss. At worst, I will wait for you in Luancheng."

……

Inside the reed hut.

Chen Yun looked at everyone.

Everyone frowned, because they couldn't tell whether what Tianpeng Zhenjun said was true or not.

Chen Yun originally wanted to discuss it with everyone.

Unexpectedly, Lei Zu said directly: "Agree."

"it is good."

Chen Yun responded and said, "I agree to your request."

Tian Peng Zhenjun said: "That's great. We will wait for you in the void and will not go to the Jiuquzhu world."

Chen Yundao: "Good."

Stop the conversation.

Chen Yun looked at Lei Zu, "Tian Zun, why don't you let me talk to them again?"

Zhang Tianshi, Lu Dongbin, Guan Erye and others also looked puzzled.

Lei Zu said slowly, "You don't know the character of Marshal Tian Peng. He is a man of his word. Today, he has said that if you don't agree to let us attack Luancheng, it means that it has reached the limit of what he can accept. And I don't want to cause any loss of life, so I want you to agree."

Chen Yun understood, "I see."

Lei Zu said domineeringly: "It's okay. Even if all six of you are defeated, I will go into battle in advance and will definitely help you win this battle. Then Moli Putian can't do anything to me!"

Hearing this, Chen Yun had an idea in his mind. Since Lei Zu dared to say so, he definitely did not take Mori Putian seriously.

That means that there is a high probability that our side will win the battle in Luancheng.

Thinking of this, Chen Yun looked at Lü Dongbin, Zhang Tianshi and others, and said very sincerely: "Zhang Tianshi, Ge Tianshi, Senior Brother Lü, Fellow Taoist Changshengtian, the next battle will be troublesome for you!"
