Conferred God: Started from Swallowing the Heaven-Repairing Stone

Chapter 416 Tell the truth
Kunpeng’s sincerity was so great that even Minghe was a little skeptical and thought there was something fishy going on.

“Of course it’s dangerous, but if I don’t do this, will the Immortal Alliance let me go?
"That's the truth. Whether I am willing to take the risk or not, the Immortal Alliance will not let me go. As soon as they are ready, they will go to the North Sea to deal with me."

"To be more precise, the Immortal Alliance has done this before, first the Five Emperors, then Zhen Yuanzi, and finally the Human Dragon and the Jade Emperor."

"A total of eight great masters arrived at the North Sea almost at the same time. Among them, Zhen Yuanzi went straight to the Demon Master Palace. Their purpose of coming to the North Sea is self-evident: they came to kill me."

"If I hadn't seen the situation was not good and avoided it in advance, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to see you today."

"From this incident, it can be seen that I cannot avoid this death. Just because I failed this time, it doesn't mean I won't succeed next time."

"Since there is no way to avoid it, I can only seek survival from death. I will use my death as a pretext to buy you a chance to take away the Buzhou Ding."

"In this case, there are only three possible outcomes: good, bad, and neither good nor bad."

"Let's make it clear first. When the main force of the Immortal Alliance is surrounding me, if they get the news that you have attacked Longzhou, they will definitely give up the siege and return to Longzhou to support me and protect the Buzhou Cauldron."

"This way, my crisis is resolved immediately."

"The bad thing is that I am too weak and was killed by the main force of the Immortal Alliance before long. Even if the Immortal Alliance got the news that you attacked Longzhou, they could return to Longzhou for support after killing me."

"It's neither good nor bad. I succeeded in holding back the main force of the Immortal Alliance, making them unable to return to Longzhou for support, which led to the Buzhou Ding being taken away by fellow Taoist."

"Then, the angry main force of the Immortal Alliance killed me with hatred. On the other hand, after obtaining the Buzhou Cauldron, fellow Taoist practiced hard for countless years, and finally achieved enlightenment with it and stepped into the highest Hunyuan realm."

"Then, considering my efforts, you resurrected me with supreme means to end this cause and effect."

This time Kunpeng did not play any tricks and spoke his thoughts truthfully.

"From your perspective, these three outcomes are indeed true. But from my perspective, only the outcome that is neither good nor bad is the most beneficial to me."

The ancestor of the Styx thought about it and replied.

Kunpeng is indeed very honest. According to the three results he mentioned, if it is good, he will be reborn. If it is bad, he will die. If it is neither good nor bad, he will die first and then be reborn.

However, regardless of the good or bad results, whether Kunpeng is dead or alive, it is destined that Minghe will not be able to obtain the Buzhou Ding.

If Kunpeng survived, it meant that the Immortal Alliance came back in time to help and successfully saved the Buzhou Ding. If Kunpeng died, the same result would occur.

Only if Kunpeng died first and then reborn, at the cost of his life, he could do his best to hold back the main force of the Immortal Alliance, so that it could not return to Longzhou for a short period of time. In this way, the Styx would have a chance to take away the Buzhou Ding.

"You are right, so I need you to give me a promise at this time. Promise that you will do your best to revive me after I die."

"In this way, I will do my best to delay the main force of the Immortal Alliance and buy enough time for you, fellow Taoist."

Kunpeng naturally heard the implication in Minghe's words, which was that he should do his best to buy as much time as possible.

Kunpeng had already prepared for this. After all, his relationship with Minghe was not good enough to stand together, so if he wanted him to help, he had to offer enough benefits.

Minghe would never do anything that has no benefit. Of the three results, only the one that is neither good nor bad will bring Minghe enough benefits, while the other two results will only make him work in vain.

Therefore, although Kunpeng seemed to have proposed three options, in fact he had no choice at all and could only choose the one that was neither good nor bad.

He used his own death to buy Minghe the opportunity to take the Buzhou Ding, and then waited for him to become enlightened and used supreme means to resurrect himself.

"You are being too serious, my friend. There is no need to think so badly. Even if the Immortal Alliance must attack you, they can't really kill you."

“Don’t forget, you and the North Sea are now one. If we kill you, the North Sea will inevitably become a wasteland. This karma is so great that even if the Immortal Alliance has great luck, it cannot bear it.”

"So, if the Immortal Alliance attacks you, the worst result will be to seal you, not to kill you."

"As long as you are not dead, there is still a chance. You have to understand that breaking the seal is much easier than resurrecting you. Even if I haven't achieved enlightenment, I can still do it!"

The ancestor of the Styx thought about it and felt that Kunpeng was still useful and it was not appropriate to push him too much, so he painted a rosy picture for him.

Although it was just a big talk, what he said was not without reason. The Immortal Alliance was established under the slogan of restoring the prehistoric world, which means that the Immortal Alliance's position does not allow it to do anything that destroys the world.

Beihai and Kunpeng are one, killing Kunpeng is equivalent to destroying Beihai. If it were another force, they might be able to be so cruel.

But the Immortal Alliance absolutely cannot do that. If it does so, it will inevitably lose the favor of the Heavenly Being. Without the favor of the Heavenly Being, the decline of the Immortal Alliance is only a matter of time.

The Immortal Alliance would definitely not accept this result. Therefore, the Immortal Alliance would never kill Kunpeng, and at most would seal him.

In fact, it is true. Killing Kunpeng is much easier than sealing him. It can be done easily with the help of the Five Emperors.

But sealing him with just the Five Emperors is not reliable enough, and more powerful people are needed to step forward.

"So, after I was sealed by the Immortal Alliance, fellow Daoist is willing to come forward to rescue me?"

Kunpeng asked Minghe seriously. In fact, he was really forced into a desperate situation now.

Ao Bing could gather so much power in such a short time, which was beyond his imagination. He had no way to deal with it. He could only risk his life and survive.

What does it mean to survive from death? Just look at the premise of the Kunpeng Project, which is completely based on the fact that one is sealed.

Obviously, this was because he was sure that he could not escape and would be sealed. So he prepared a way out for himself in advance, at the cost of delaying the main force of the Immortal Alliance, in exchange for Minghe helping him break the seal afterwards.

"If the main force of the Immortal Alliance attacks, fellow Daoist will go all out and not give any discounts. Then I, Minghe, am not a person who breaks my promise. Regardless of whether I have snatched the Buzhou Ding or not, I will do my best to save you afterwards."

"Heaven and earth are witnesses to this matter!"

Minghe said seriously, and even swore an oath. With heaven and earth as witnesses, if he broke the promise, the backlash of heaven and earth would be enough to cut off his path to enlightenment.

Becoming a saint is Minghe's obsession. He swore this oath, which shows the strength of this oath. Basically, as long as Minghe is alive, there is no possibility of violating this oath.

"My fellow Taoist is a believer. Since you have said this, I naturally believe it."

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Kunpeng finally felt relieved. Now that he had the Styx as a backup, his ending couldn't be any worse. It couldn't be that after he was sealed, the Styx would also be sealed, right? The Immortal Alliance didn't have the ability to do that, so a saint had to take action personally, and two saints had to work together.

After all, Minghe is not only the Lord of the Sea of ​​Blood and the leader of the Ashura Sect, he is also the leader of the Ashura Path, one of the Six Paths, and has the blessing of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Although this is not enough for him to compete with the saints, it can also make the saints unable to do anything to him.

It is for this reason that Kunpeng chose the Styx to back him up. If you have someone to back you up, then the stronger the person, the better, so that there will be no situation where he cannot back you up.

"Since the matter has been settled, I will take my leave first. The Immortal Alliance is very powerful right now. Even if I try my best, I may not be able to delay them for long. Therefore, I need to go to the Demon Court and try to gain their support."

"In this way, even if the Immortal Alliance calls Haotian here, I can buy more time for you."

Kunpeng was extremely decisive. After reaching a deal with Minghe, he immediately set off for the demon clan.

The deal with the Styx was made to provide a safety net, to ensure that after failure, there would still be a chance to make a comeback.

And the purpose of striving to gain the support of the remnants of the demon clan is to enhance one's own strength and change one's fate.

In fact, in addition to the three results mentioned above, there is another result that Kunpeng did not mention. That is, he successfully survived, and the Styx Patriarch also successfully took away the Buzhou Ding.

This result is indeed possible, but the probability is very low, so low that there is no hope. Therefore, both Kunpeng and Minghe tacitly did not mention it.

But no matter how low the probability is, it is still a chance, and it is possible to achieve it. Kunpeng sought the support of the remnants of the demon clan in order to realize this slim chance.

After gaining the support of the remnants of the demon clan, his luck will reunite with the luck of the North Sea demon clan. By then, even if Kunpeng has not become the overlord of the world, he will not be far from it.

In this case, the Immortal Alliance would be the passive party. If they fail to do it properly, Kunpeng's plan would succeed, and they would neither be able to kill him nor save the Buzhou Ding.

"You are very thoughtful, but I don't think the ten demon saints are people who know how to deal with current affairs. I'm afraid they won't easily agree to your request."

"Well, I have a treasure here, called the Northern Mysterious Origin Water Control Flag, which is made from the lotus leaf of the 36th-grade Chaos Azure Lotus, the most precious treasure of the Creation of Heaven. It contains the merits of the Creation of Heaven, and is a rare spiritual treasure of the highest grade with innate merits in the world."

"I will temporarily lend you this treasure so that those remnants of the demon race will know that you and I have formed an alliance. In this way, even if the conflict between them and you is huge, they will have no choice but to support you because of our power."

After learning of Kunpeng's next plan, Minghe pondered for a moment, then took out the Northern Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, handed it to him and spoke.

He did this for two reasons. One was that the stronger Kunpeng was, the more time he would have. The other was simply to take revenge on the demon clan.

Minghe had a grudge against the demon clan, or more precisely, against Taiyi. Back then, it wasn't just Minghe and Kunpeng who wanted to kill Hongyun, but also the two brothers Dijun and Taiyi.

But the two brothers were cunning enough and didn't want to be the first to take action, so they ambushed behind Kunpeng and Minghe, ready to take advantage of the situation.

Therefore, when Hong Yun was killed by Minghe, before he could go forward to check the spoils, Taiyi and Dijun rushed out.

Although they didn't get the Hongmeng purple energy from Hongyun in the end, the hatred was formed. Minghe fought with Taiyi, but was defeated and chased into the sea of ​​blood.

The sea of ​​blood never dries up, the river Styx never dies.

After escaping back to the Blood Sea, Minghe thought that he could turn defeat into victory with the help of the Blood Sea. But unfortunately, Taiyi was too strong. Even with the support of the Blood Sea, Minghe was no match for him.

In the end, if a powerful person had not come forward to plead for mercy, the entire sea of ​​blood would have been almost burned dry by Taiyi.

Minghe, who luckily survived, regarded this incident as a great humiliation and hated the entire demon race because of it. He dreamed of revenge.

However, when the demon tribe was strong, he never had the chance to take revenge. After the demon tribe declined, he couldn't bring himself to take revenge. The matter was delayed again and again until now.

And now that Kunpeng is willing to take the lead, Minghe naturally doesn't mind taking a little revenge on the demon clan through Kunpeng.

Forcing them to cooperate with the traitor and obey his orders, I think the demon clan will never feel good, and may even regard it as a great shame.

"This is really..."

Looking at the Northern Xuanyuan Water Control Flag handed to him by the Minghe River, Kunpeng was so excited that he didn't know what to say.

Between heaven and earth, there are twelve top-level innate merit treasures, namely the Three Pure Ones' treasures of the Way, the Panlong Bianguai, the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, the Qingping Sword, the Four Innate Lotus Platforms, and the Innate Five Direction Flags.

These twelve innate spiritual treasures of merit are surprisingly the strongest innate spiritual treasures. They are the strongest under the innate supreme treasures, and can even be comparable to the innate supreme treasures in some aspects.

Even a saint would be tempted by such a precious treasure, let alone Kunpeng who has always been poor.

It was a well-known fact that Kunpeng was a poor fellow. Apart from a demon master palace, he had basically no decent magic weapons.

Just one Northern Xuanyuan Water Control Flag is worth all his wealth, or even more.

Therefore, when Kunpeng saw Minghe lending him the Northern Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, one can imagine how excited he was. He really wanted to hug Minghe and shout "good brother".

"Your trust in me is so great that I am at a loss for words. I won't say any more. Please rest assured that if I can hold back the main force of the Immortal Alliance, I will lose hope of achieving enlightenment in this lifetime if I have any strength left."

Taking over the Northern Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, Kunpeng said with great emotion.

Minghe said he was borrowing it, but when to return it was not something he could control, it depended on Kunpeng's intention. If he really didn't want to return it, he had plenty of excuses.

In fact, seeing Kunpeng so excited, Minghe already felt a little regretful in his heart, worried that he would not return the money.

But he changed his mind and thought, if he successfully seized the Buzhou Ding and became a saint with it, how could Kunpeng dare not return his treasure?

On the contrary, even if he did not succeed, Kunpeng would have to rely on him to break the seal after being sealed. In this case, Kunpeng also dared not not return his magic weapon.

Thinking of this, Minghe’s heart, which had just been hanging in the air, finally settled down again.

……

Just when Minghe and Kunpeng reached a deal, Ao Bing had already arrived at Wanshou Mountain.

Wanshou Mountain, the Taoist temple of Zhen Yuanzi, the ancestor of earthly immortals, is located at the junction of the East and the West and is a rare innate holy place in the world.
