Chapter 514 United Again

Compared with the blood and fire in Zhongzhou and the iron-blooded killing in Youzhou, Dongzhou showed a strange resilience under the magic rain.

Although there were casualties and monsters were causing trouble, the chaos was effectively suppressed and order still existed.

All this is because the Bishui Sect, the leader of the world's medicine sects, is here.

The mountain gate of the Bishui Sect is located above the vast blue waves. There is mist between the pavilions and towers, and spiritual plants are everywhere.

Although the sect is the best in the world in terms of alchemy and medicine skills, and its overall combat power is recognized as the weakest among the three sects, but when faced with this strange magic rain disaster, the reaction of the Bishui Sect was lightning fast.

The sect protection formation "Wan Ze Gui Liu Formation" has already been fully activated.

The sticky black rain falling from the sky, after landing in the range of the large formation, was diverted, diluted and purified by the layers of water curtain shields.

Although it cannot be completely blocked, the toxicity of the magic rain that fell into the core area of ​​the sect has been greatly weakened, and the formation is always running to continuously guide out and eliminate the invading filthy demonic energy.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the main hall of Bishui Sect was a little tense.

Immortal Master Shu Yin sat at the head of the table, the heroic spirit between his brows now adding a bit of aloofness and scrutiny that comes from being in a high position for a long time.

The water mirror in front of her was rotating, reflecting the response to the demonic disasters in various parts of Dongzhou.

In the hall, the Lord of the East China Sea Whale King, Chongming, stood quietly. He had a tall and graceful figure, his dark blue scales shone, and his beautiful face carried the solemnity of a sea overlord. His pupils, faintly blue in the darkness, were as deep as the abyss.

The red-gold Demon Emperor's talisman held in her hand exuded the pure aura of the Nine-Star True Fire and unquestionable imperial power.

“. . . . . . That’s the situation,”

The clear voice of King Chongming echoed clearly, "Your Majesty cares deeply about the people and knows that the demonic calamity cannot be resisted by one clan or one place."

"The East Sea demon tribe is willing to exchange all the rare treasures hidden in the deep sea and the magic-controlling treasures for your clan's life-saving elixir, purification secret technique, and some shelter on land."

"The specific list and requirements are all in this jade slip. Please take a look, Immortal Venerable."

The siren behind her presented a dark blue jade slip.

Immortal Master Shu Yin raised his hand, and a force like a stream of water swept through the jade slip through the air, and his spiritual sense swept over it instantly.

Her heroic eyebrows raised imperceptibly, her eyes sharp as lightning as she stared directly at King Chongming: "The Demon Emperor is indeed decisive and resolute. In the face of the demonic calamity, the Bishui Sect naturally welcomes those who can contribute real money to help fight the disaster. This list shows sincerity."

She casually placed the jade slip on the table and said in a straightforward tone, "The Bishui Sect has agreed to the elixir and the sanctuary quota. As for the subsequent supply and exchange details, have your people discuss them with the elders of the External Affairs Hall. Just follow the rules."

King Chongming felt a slight relief, but his beautiful face remained dignified. "Thank you, Immortal Venerable, for your understanding of justice! Xun Guang represents my emperor and all the monsters of the East China Sea. Thank you, Immortal Venerable."

"No need to thank me, just take what you need."

Shu Yinxianzun waved his hand, his gesture casual yet carrying an invisible pressure. Then he asked casually, "I heard that Yan Xi is now in charge of the Hehuan Palace in Xizhou? It seems that the Youzhou demons are quite close to them?"

Prince Chongming solemnly responded, "The Immortal Venerable is well-informed. Your Majesty is grateful for the heroic sacrifice of the Immortal Venerable Wushuang, and also considers that Xizhou is closely adjacent to Youzhou and is closely interdependent. Therefore, you have specially dispatched Prince Fufeng with the Immortal Venerable Wushuang's token. You have also reached an agreement with the Lord of Yan to support each other."

When mentioning Wushuang Immortal Venerable and Yaori Palace, Immortal Venerable Shuyin's fingers on the armrest paused for a breath almost imperceptibly, and an extremely complex and difficult to interpret light flashed across the depths of his eyes, as if a stone was thrown into a deep pool, and it instantly returned to deep calm.

The expression on her face did not change at all, still showing the aloofness and decisiveness that showed she was in control of the overall situation.

"... The actions of the Peerless Immortal Venerable are always unexpected, but... they also have their reasons."

Shu Yinxianzun's voice was steady, without a trace of emotion, as if he were evaluating an old friend who had nothing to do with him. "Yan Xi has fulfilled his dying trust by shouldering the responsibility of He Huan Palace. Since He Huan Palace has already formed an alliance with Youzhou, our Bishui Sect will certainly not stand idly by during this demonic calamity."

She turned her gaze to a young couple standing in the shadows near the palace gate.

They were a pair of handsome twins with calm and reserved temperaments. They were dressed in the standard uniforms of Bishui Sect's direct disciples, and their auras were very restrained.

They were the direct disciples of Immortal Master Shu Yin - Ye Chen and Ye Xu.

"Fifteen, sixteen." The voice of Immortal Shu Yin sounded.

"Disciple is here!" The two men answered in unison, and walked steadily and silently to the brighter part of the hall. They saluted respectfully to Immortal Master Shu Yin and King Chong Ming, their posture perfect and impeccable.

"You two have studied the sect's classics thoroughly and have considerable experience in material dispatch and external affairs."

Shu Yinxianzun's tone was calm, as if he was merely arranging an ordinary matter. "From today on, you will assist the elders of the External Affairs Hall and be responsible for coordinating specific matters with fellow Daoist Donghai. The inventory of elixirs, the delivery of supplies, the verification of the shelter list, and the subsequent detailed communication must be rigorous and meticulous, without any mistakes. Do you understand?"

"Disciple understands. I will fulfill my duties conscientiously and live up to Master's trust."

Ye Chen responded calmly, and Ye Xu nodded solemnly.

Immortal Master Shu Yin looked at King Chongming, his tone still direct: "Your Majesty, regarding the specific implementation, my two disciples will contact you. They are quite reliable. The rules of the Bishui Sect are to be followed and nothing is cheated. I hope that the East Sea will also abide by the agreement."

Her words carried the unquestionable strength that a leader of the Bishui Sect should have.

King Chongming understood and bowed again: "Rest assured, Immortal Venerable, the East Sea Demon Tribe will treat us with sincerity and abide by the agreement."

The two disciples sent by Immortal Master Shu Yin are the greatest sincerity and guarantee of the Bishui Sect for this cooperation. Their identities are tacitly understood by both parties.

At the same time, deep in Youzhou's Sun Palace.

Ning Jiasheng sat upright on the cold imperial throne, her imperial robe radiating a majestic luster, reflecting her cold and sharp golden vertical pupils.

The reports from King Fufeng and King Chongming arrived at the Imperial Seal almost at the same time.

"Hehuan Palace...Bishui Sect..." Ning Jiasheng whispered, his fingertips sliding across the armrest of the imperial throne, leaving a striking mark.

Uniting with the human race's immortal sect was her key plan to fight against the inner demons, stabilize the demon race, and resist the demonic disaster.

However, at this moment, there was no satisfaction in her heart that the plan was progressing, only a cold, scrutinizing calculation surging.

Her gratitude towards the Unparalleled Immortal Venerable was genuine, and her judgment of the situation was clear.

But when the names "Bishui Sect" and "Shuyin Immortal Venerable" appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness, a distorted rejection and doubt from the depths of his soul quietly grew.

The seeds of the inner demon had taken deep root after she ascended to the throne of the Demon King and bore supreme authority and power, and were constantly eroding her original intentions.

Ning Jiasheng slowly closed his eyes, and the Nine Lights True Fire flowed silently around his body, illuminating the imperial throne with brilliance.

Beneath the Demon King's crown, the shadow of her inner demon is silently spreading and deepening as her power expands and she approaches the human race.

Xizhou, Hehuan Palace.

Inside the main hall, the atmosphere was solemn yet tinged with a hint of tenacity after the tragedy.

Sitting on the main seat, Master Mingjing wore a plain and elegant robe instead of his usual flamboyant attire. He had a calm and capable demeanor, and his expression showed the responsibility and majesty of a local leader.

Under the main seat, King Fufeng has completed his mission.

He solemnly handed back to Yan Xi an ancient jade bead that was shaped like half a cassia flower and shone with the warm moonlight.

"Master Yan, I have conveyed His Majesty's order. This is the token of the Peerless Immortal Venerable, returned intact to Zhao. Your Majesty, in gratitude for the Immortal Venerable's great kindness, the Youzhou demon tribe is willing to form an alliance with the Hehuan Palace to protect and support each other and jointly resist the demonic calamity!"

King Fufeng's voice was gentle but powerful.

Yan Xi took the jade pendant that carried his master's final breath and instructions in both hands. His fingertips felt the slight coolness and faint fluctuations of spiritual power coming from it. His eyes were filled with deep sorrow, and only a quiet determination remained.

He gripped the jade pendant tightly, his voice clear and powerful, "Prince Fufeng, please report to the Demon Emperor. The entire Hehuan Palace bears in mind the Palace Master's last wishes and is grateful for His Majesty's kindness. Hehuan Palace has accepted this alliance. From now on, Xizhou and Youzhou will serve as each other's shield."

"If the monsters invade Xizhou, the aid of Youzhou is our palace's hope. If Youzhou needs us, the disciples of Hehuan Palace will go all out, even if it means death!"

"True Lord, the alliance is now concluded. Here are the specially made communication tokens from Youzhou and a batch of exorcism and healing supplies. Please accept them, True Lord."

King Fufeng presented a token of trust.

Yan Xi took it solemnly: "Thank you, King Fufeng."

The news also reached the Bishui Sect in Dongzhou.

Upon learning that the alliance had been concluded, King Fufeng returned the relics of the Wushuang Immortal Venerable... The Immortal Venerable Shuyin stood alone in the highest tide-viewing pavilion of the Bi Bo Palace, leaning on the railing and gazing into the distance. His sight seemed to penetrate the heavy magic rain and space, and fell on the distant direction of Xizhou, where he had discussed and argued with someone countless times.

Outside the window, the blue waves surged, hitting the rocks and making a dull roar.

In her hand, she unconsciously stroked a half-flowered cassia jade bead that was exactly the same as the one in Yan Xi's hand, feeling the familiar cold lines on her fingertips.

After a long moment, a very faint, almost invisible arc appeared at the corner of her lips. There was no fragility in that arc, only the bottomless complexity that had accumulated over thousands of years and a hint of... indescribable loneliness.

Finally, she spoke calmly to the void, in a voice only she could hear:

"The mansion is about to collapse... an ant trying to shake a tree... I refuse to believe it!"
