Chapter 289: Mulan Holy Bird's Considerations
Ye Changsheng's words made the Mulan sacred bird fall into deep thought.
It confirmed that it had really considered it, even though it seemed ridiculous for a mere cultivator in the middle Nascent Soul stage to talk to it about these things.
But this Mulan Holy Bird is not one who is obsessed with the differences in cultivation. It values its own life more.
The great heavenly calamity, and the demonic calamity that will come in the future, are two sharp swords hanging over the bodies of all the demons and humans in the spiritual world.
Moreover, even without mentioning the great heavenly calamity and the devilish calamity, it is now facing a huge trouble.
In the face of this trouble, one who is not careful may lose his life.
Even if it survives by chance, it will most likely be enslaved in the future, so the Mulan Holy Bird attaches great importance to its arrival in the human world and the Mulan clan.
This may be the trump card that will enable it to turn the tables in the future, and there must be absolutely no problems.
When faced with these matters that are crucial to its own future and destiny, it will not consider such boring things as the level of cultivation of the person it is talking to.
Moreover, the man in front of him was undoubtedly a powerful figure. If he were placed in the spiritual world, he would sooner or later be no less powerful than him. Negotiating with him would not disgrace his own identity.
"How about we make a deal? I will help you protect the Mulan tribe, and may even assist your incarnation to actually land here in the future. What you need to do is to give me all the knowledge about the spiritual world!" Ye Changsheng said slowly.
After hearing Ye Changsheng's words, the Mulan Holy Bird remained silent for a long time, folded its wings, and suddenly stopped attacking.
It was moved and decided to let its incarnation actually come. This was what it had been planning for tens of thousands of years since it paid attention to the Mulan tribe.
It’s a pity that the Mulan tribe was not up to the task and failed to complete all the preparations. This time they were defeated and even lost the Prairie Temple.
If it could get the help of the person in front of it and allow it to manifest as an incarnation, then it could be said that its plan would have been half successful.
The crisis it is facing now is not so terrible. Even if the original body in the upper world dies, the incarnation in the lower world can start practicing again.
This is equivalent to leaving oneself a second life. How can one not be tempted?
So, it stopped attacking, which was a signal to Ye Changsheng.
After seeing Mulan Shengqin stop attacking, Ye Changsheng also stopped. The truce between the two shocked the people below.
I have no idea what they are doing.
However, when they saw the two men stop fighting, their movements also slowed down.
Just when the atmosphere here was a little weird, suddenly, a thunderclap sounded in the sky, and an earth-shaking roar appeared on the battlefield:
"Who is it? Who killed my sect's wife? I will extract his soul and refine his spirit to avenge this hatred!"
A dark cloud descended from the sky, hundreds of feet wide. Countless green lightning bolts rolled in the cloud, and the sky suddenly changed color.
Hearing this voice, Han Li's heart skipped a beat and his eyes turned cold.
The leader of Yinluo Sect discovered that his wife had been killed, but it was not known whether he saw that it was Han Li who did it.
However, even if he didn't see it, it didn't matter, someone would inform him soon.
Han Li's heart was in knots. He didn't want to be chased all over the battlefield by a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage.
"The winner has not yet been decided, so why are you in such a hurry to leave? I, Yi, would like to learn more about your magic skills!" The voice of the old demon Hehuan came from the sky in an extremely ethereal manner.
At the same time, a ball of grayish-white mist floated down, blocking the dark clouds.
"Get out of here. We are not in the mood to spar with you right now. If you continue to pester me, don't blame me for being rude to you!" The voice of Sect Master Yin Luo was extremely cold in the dark clouds.
"You're welcome? In my entire life, I've never been treated rudely by anyone. Just use whatever means you have!" The old demon Hehuan sneered, showing no intention of backing down.
The black-robed man in the dark cloud fell silent. After a long while, he said grimly, "Well, since you are so ignorant of the situation, I am not in the mood to waste any more time. I will let you see the power of our sect's most precious treasure, the Ghost Banner."
"Ghost Banner?" Upon hearing this, there was a hint of excitement in the voice of the old demon Hehuan, as if he was looking forward to seeing this kind of magic weapon.
The few short sentences between the two shocked the crowd below. Many people only realized now that the partner of the Yinluo Sect leader had been killed .
Han Li looked normal on the surface, but he felt relieved when he saw the old demon Hehuan blocking the Yinluo Sect Master.
Just when everyone thought that the old demon Hehuan and the demon cultivator from Jin were going to engage in a fierce battle at low altitude, something else suddenly happened.
A sharp roar came from the sky behind the mage, followed by a flash of light, and more than a dozen rays of light of different colors shot towards here rapidly.
And before they even got close, someone shouted loudly: "Divine Masters, stop it, something happened on the grassland, things have changed!"
This person seemed to want everyone to hear it on purpose, and actually used some secret technique to shout out these words. Then the speed of the escaping lights increased by another three percent.
Soon rushed to the battlefield.
Suddenly, many people in both the monks and mages camps stopped in shock.
Han Li and the others also slowed down their movements, and the battle between Wei Wuya, Master Zhiyang and the Divine Master Mulan also stopped.
Everyone realized that things had changed.
Even Ye Changsheng and Mulan Shengqin shifted their attention to the dozen or so rays of light flying in the distance.
When the skinny old man saw the dozen or so figures in the escaping light, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately turned into a shocking rainbow and rushed towards the dozen people.
The brilliance of more than a dozen rays of light faded, revealing more than a dozen mages in different costumes. The leading mage, a yellow-robed mage, was actually in the middle Nascent Soul stage.
This surprised many cultivators in Tiannan. The power before them was not actually deployed to the battlefield. A cultivator with such high cultivation level could play a very important role.
Looking at their current state, it means that something might have gone wrong behind the Mulan people.
Seeing the faces of those monks, the Mulan people seemed to realize something and their expressions changed.
An expression of disbelief appeared on the skinny old man's face, and he immediately whispered a few words with his lips slightly moving. Then, as if he had heard some news from the other party, his expression suddenly became gloomy.
The yellow-robed monk took out a jade slip from his body and handed it to the old man.
After the old man took the jade slip, he immediately immersed his mind in it. Not long after, his face turned extremely pale.
After briefly communicating with the yellow-robed monk through voice transmission, the old man suddenly turned around and flew towards the battlefield.
"There is no need for us to fight anymore. If we don't stop, I'm afraid the fisherman will benefit while the snipe and the clam fight!" The Mulan god-blessing master flew over and said calmly to Long Han.
"What do you mean? If you want to stop the war, you have to give a reasonable reason, right?" Long Han's eyes flashed a few times and he said without comment.
Tiannan is now in the upper hand, how can they stop the war just by asking the other side to do so?
"Did you send a team of monks to rob our warehouse?" The old man did not directly answer Long Han's question, but asked gloomily.
Long Han was startled, but remained calm on the surface. After his eyes flickered a few times, he said calmly, "It is true. It seems that you have discovered it!"
"Discovered? Humph, if there wasn't a third party causing trouble, you would have really succeeded!" Anger flashed in the old man's eyes, then he regained his composure and said.
"A third party?"
The skinny old man saw that Long Han’s face was full of confusion, so he stopped talking nonsense and started to transmit his voice.
"What? Is there such a thing?" After hearing only two sentences, Long Han's expression changed and he could no longer remain calm.
"Now that things have come to this, is there any need for me, the divine master, to lie to you?" the old man said unhappily.
Long Han frowned, pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his hand and released a talisman.
The talisman flew up into the sky and instantly turned into several golden light balls that exploded in the air.
A blindingly bright light shot out. The monks who were still fighting stopped when they saw this and quickly retreated towards the monks' camp.
The mage camp on the opposite side didn't know what method to use, and they retreated silently.
The two sides seemed to have returned to the situation before the war, separated into two sides, but each had lost a lot of manpower.
The mage camp was fine. Although everyone was a little confused, most of them remained silent.
On the other hand, the monks' camp began to discuss the matter and were extremely confused. Some high-level monks simply surrounded Long Han and asked him what had happened.
But Long Han just kept shaking his head and smiling bitterly without saying anything, which made the monks around him very dissatisfied.
The dark clouds and gray fog in the sky dissipated at the same time, and the old demon Hehuan and the Yinluo clan leader appeared. After staring at each other coldly for a few times, they returned to the camp.
Master Zhiyang and Wei Wuya also floated over soon after. The three great monks from Tiannan all returned safely.
In the sky, Ye Changsheng looked at the scene below, a smile appeared on his face, and he said lightly: "Looking at the situation, there should be a problem in the rear of the Mulan people, right?"
"Let me guess, could it be that the Tuwu people took advantage of the opportunity when the Mulan people were out in full force to attack Tiannan and sneak attacked the Mulan people's lair?" Ye Changsheng said.
"We will know the reason later!" The expression of the Mulan Holy Bird seemed unusually calm at this moment. Its huge body suddenly shrank and suddenly turned around and flew towards Mulan's military camp.
Looking at his departing figure, a smile appeared in Ye Changsheng's eyes. It seemed that his transaction with the Mulan Holy Bird would most likely be successful.
Turning around and floating back to his own camp, Ye Changsheng saw that Long Han and the three great cultivators were surrounded by a group of cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, plus Han Li, who was in the early stage of the Nascent Soul.
They stood in a soundproof enclosure, all of them were silent. When Ye Changsheng also came into the soundproof enclosure, Long Han's expression relaxed, and then he said:
"Everyone is here, we can talk now!"
"Fellow Daoist Long, what exactly happened? Why don't the Mulan people want to fight anymore?" asked Master Zhiyang.
Long Han glanced at the crowd, sighed softly, and said, "Something happened on the grassland. The Tuwu people united with several sects in Jin State and launched an attack on the Mulan people."
"The largest tribe guarding the rear of the Mulan people was completely wiped out a month ago. It was only because the Tuwu people blocked the news well that the other tribes of the Mulan people did not know about it!"
"It seems that those Tuwu people are also trying to take advantage of the situation and are interested in our Tiannan!" Long Han said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Wei Wuya and others frowned.
This is really a case of a tiger entering through the front door and a wolf coming out through the back door!
It is not surprising that the Tuwu people are interested in Tiannan. After all, given the level of depletion of resources on the grassland, they will definitely be interested in the slightly richer areas around them .
The Mulan grassland, or the Tianlan grassland as the Tuwu people call it, has only two adjacent areas, one is Tiannan and the other is Dajin.
To seize the territory of Dajin would be like wishing one's life was too long, so one had no choice but to set one's sights on Tiannan.
In the eyes of the people of Dajin, the people living on the Mulan grassland are a group of barbarians, and in their impression, the Tiannan region is not much better.
Not to mention that most of the people of Dajin have no idea of the existence of Tiannan. Even if they do know about it, they would regard it as a remote and poor place. The people of Tiannan are barbarians similar to the Mulan people.
However, from an objective point of view, compared with the rich resources in the Dajin immortal world, the Tiannan region can indeed be described as a remote and poor place.
However, what puzzled Wei Wuya, Master Zhiyang and others was that didn’t the Great Jin Dynasty basically not interfere in the struggles on the grassland before?
Why are all these sects getting involved this time?
Not only did the Yinluo Sect secretly run into the Mulan army, but the Tuwu people also joined forces with the Dajin sect to attack the Mulan people.
Is there something wrong with Dajin?
The three great cultivators who had some understanding of Dajin fell into deep thought.
"Huh, is this news true or false? The Tuwu people are very far away from us in Tiannan. Could it be that the Mulan people are bluffing?" An old monster in the Nascent Soul stage suddenly asked.
"It shouldn't be. The team led by old monster Tianhen failed. It is said that the Tuwu spy lurking among the Mulan people had the same idea as us. As a result, he happened to meet fellow Daoist Tianhen, and both sides were exposed at once!" Long Han shook his head and said.
Glancing at everyone, Long Han said in a deep voice: "As you can see, the Mulan people who have gone all out may be a little weaker than us, but they should not be underestimated!"
"If it weren't for Brother Ye who stopped the Mulan Holy Bird this time, I'm afraid we might not be a match for the Mulan people. If this battle continues, we can certainly wipe out the Mulan people, but we will definitely suffer heavy losses!"
"If the Tuwu people appear later and join forces with those Jin sects to attack us, we will definitely not be able to stop them!" Long Han said.
He calmly analyzed the pros and cons to everyone. In a nutshell, it was no longer appropriate to continue fighting this battle.
