The sword seller, dressed in red, deserves applause for the prankster.

Previously, Chi Miao and Niu Niu had signed an equal contract, which essentially meant that the other party had become a soul ally of him.

Once an equal contract is established, the weaker party will receive some benefits, such as increased cultivation level or increased soul power.

Chi Miao's cultivation level is far below that of the Heavenly Fox King. If an equal contract is signed, Chi Miao's cultivation level is very likely to leap forward.

The feedback on cultivation level is secondary; the most important thing is... this means that Chi Miao and the Heavenly Fox King are truly in the same boat.

If Chi Miao succeeds, the Heavenly Fox King will succeed; if Chi Miao is destroyed, the Heavenly Fox King will also be doomed.

At the same time, Chi Miao and the Heavenly Fox King can summon each other and arrive at each other's side directly through a contract!

What does this mean?

This means that Chi Miao carries with him a combatant at the Tribulation Transcending stage!

Then she won't be able to do whatever she wants in Miaohua Continent from now on?

Currently, Chi Miao's value and status are absolutely not worth a Tribulation Transcending stage expert condescending to form an equal contract with her. No matter how high her talent is or how good she is in all aspects, if she dies young, she is nothing!

Chi Miao hadn't expected the Heavenly Fox King to be so determined, and his respect for him grew even more.

She said, "I'm sure you won't regret the decision you made today!"

She, Chi Miao, never disappoints anyone's expectations.

She will exceed everyone's expectations!

Heavenly Fox King: "Is that so? I'll wait and see."

The two immediately swore an oath to enter into an equal contract.

At the moment the equal contract was completed, Chi Miao also received a large amount of spiritual energy feedback from the Heavenly Fox King because of the contract.

She sat cross-legged.

The Heavenly Fox King confidently declared, "She's currently in the early Nascent Soul stage. After receiving my nourishment... she'll definitely be able to reach the Half-Step Divine Transformation stage!"

That's confidence!

The next second, Chi Miao began his promotion!

Boom—!

A powerful vortex dissipated, and Chi Miao successfully advanced to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Then, under the watchful eyes of the Heavenly Fox King and Rong Xuanji, Chi Miao stood up.

Heavenly Fox King: "???"

Seeing his pale face, Chi Miao asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Celestial Fox King: "Why haven't you continued to break through?"

Chi Miao shrugged: "I'm out of spiritual energy. The remaining spiritual energy isn't enough for a breakthrough, so I might as well save it up and compress it. Laying a solid foundation is the most important thing."

The Celestial Fox King fell silent: "No...not enough? How is that possible?"

Chi Miao was both amused and exasperated.

"You don't know this, because I am a Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Heavenly Dao, and I have two spiritual roots and six Nascent Souls."

Now that the Heavenly Fox King and she had established an equal contract, there was nothing left to hide from him, so she briefly explained her situation.

After hearing this, the Heavenly Fox King reacted with a dramatic display of cerebellar atrophy.

Foundation Establishment of the Heavenly Dao? Six Nascent Soul cultivators?!

"Such a niche language... Is this still the common language of Miaohua Continent?"

However, he knew very well that Chi Miao had no reason to lie to him.

Hearing this, he realized... that he was actually the one who benefited the most from this equal contract.

Looking back at Chi Miao's cultivation process, she achieved the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, six Golden Cores, and six Nascent Souls... If she were to break through to the Divine Transformation stage, could she directly evolve six souls?

What kind of monster is that?

The human race's claim that she is the most likely to become an immortal is absolutely true! In fact, it may be a significant underestimation!

Even if Chi Miao's plan to save the demon race fails this time, and the Heavenly Fox Demon Clan is driven out or even wiped out, as long as he can protect them for several decades until Chi Miao breaks through to the Tribulation Transcending stage.

Isn't this the number one person below the immortals?

Isn't this bad news? Hua Zhou is going to start a chaotic massacre.

He will have no worries then!

The more the Heavenly Fox King thought about it, the more passionate he became, and he gave Rong Xuanji a big thumbs up.

Rong Xuanji: "?"

What illness is it?

The Heavenly Fox King exclaimed, "As expected of my daughter, her taste is absolutely superb!"

Rong Xuanji raised her head with a touch of pride: "Hmph."

Her judgment has always been excellent.

The Heavenly Fox King didn't waste any more words. The more he understood Chi Miao, the more confident he became. He then got down to business and began to explain his plan.

He looked at Chi Miao and spoke:

"Getting back to the important point, do you know what the only faith of my demon race can currently unify everyone with?"

Chi Miao hesitated for a moment before speaking: "The Demon Mother?"

The Celestial Fox King nodded: "Yes, Demon Mother... the mother of all demons. If we want you to become the Demon King... we must exploit the Demon Mother's faith!"

Chi Miao listened attentively.

The Way of the Heavenly Fox King:

"Although the ten Demon King candidates were chosen by the consciousness of the previous generation of Demon Kings who remained in the world, and each of them had a drop of Demon King's blood essence in their bodies, the Demon Kings are insignificant in front of the Demon Mother."

"Therefore, even if you are not one of the top ten Demon King candidates, as long as you can gain the Demon Mother's response and approval, you can become the Demon King!"

"To gain the Demon Mother's approval, we must go to the forbidden land of the Demon Clan, the Holy Palace—the place where the Demon Mother created the Demon Clan, according to legend. However, the Holy Palace is guarded by that Heavenly Demon all year round, and we cannot enter under normal circumstances."

"But coincidentally, it happens recently... to be the most important day for the demon race—their birthday!"

Birthday, as the name suggests, is the day the demon race was born.

On this day, the kings of all branches of the demon race must offer their sacrifices to worship the Demon Mother. In addition, the ten Demon King candidates also intend to choose the Demon King of this generation on this day.

Then they will be able to approach the statue of the Demon Mother.

In fact, the ten candidates for Demon King had planned this before, but the Demon Mother statue had not responded.

That year, Xingqi, the high priest of the Star Moon Demon Clan, prophesied that the Demon Mother would definitely respond, but... the one who receives the response may not necessarily be the Demon King candidate.

When Xingqi got to this point, all the Demon King candidates looked grim. However, for the sake of the Demon Clan, they voted. The final result of the vote was that each race had to select the most talented person to be brought to the Demon Mother statue for testing.

Heavenly Fox King: "After so many years, we still haven't been able to select a true Demon King from the top ten Demon King candidates, which proves that we ten were never capable of doing so from the beginning. Xuan Ji tried before, but received no response."

"If the Demon Mother won't speak, then we can only compare merits."

"At that time, we will reveal your methods for transforming the demon race. In terms of achievement, who in the world can compare to you?"

Chi Miao crossed her arms and laughed:

"But didn't you say the Demon Mother's return is imminent? What if she appears on that day?"

The Heavenly Fox King snorted coldly: "The Demon Mother won't appear so easily. Even if she does... she'll only be a reincarnation. Before she becomes powerful, she can only obediently be a puppet. If she can't even be a good puppet... someone will naturally secretly get rid of her."

"But you're different. You have my support; no one can truly touch you!"

Faith is faith.

But in this world, self-interest is the most important thing.

If the return of the Demon Mother cannot bring benefits, how can a Demon Mother without power make such a large race as the Demon Clan willingly submit?

Chi Miao smiled and tilted her head: "Then... what if I were the Demon Mother?"
