Chapter 243
243 Surrender
I can’t get in?
Lu Qing’s first reaction was to be dumbfounded.
He had never encountered such a situation before.
The so-called bump on the head was just a way of describing it. In reality, Lu Qing did not feel any pain. In his current state, it seemed that even if something could touch him, it would not be able to hurt him.
At the very least, this restriction could not.
After the initial shock, he was overjoyed.
Even though it was blocked and he could not enter, and he could not see what was behind it, Lu Qing knew that there were only two possibilities for what was behind it.
First, his level was so high that he could not pass through even with the traveling ability given by the system.
Second, this thing might have some connection with the system. Or rather, the abilities of the two might come from the same source. That was why it was able to block Lu Qing.
But no matter what the situation was, it showed that the thing that came after was probably extraordinary.
This made Lu Qing think of the secret realm under the energy stone mine on Yuyan mountain,’beyond space’.
That was the first time he could touch something in his higher consciousness form.
At that time, he touched the throne in the underground palace and used it to open the secret realm ‘beyond the starry sky’. Back then, after entering the secret plane, the humanoid creature made entirely of Starlight said something inexplicable to him. Then, when he touched the creature, a force directly entered his body through his consciousness. From this, he also obtained the ‘star God Mode’,’ star divine power’, ‘sacred body of stars’, and’ ancient rising star technique’.
At present, apart from the innate ability of the ‘sacred body of stars’ and the ‘ancient rising star technique’, he had yet to use the other things.
‘Star God Mode’ could grant a part of his star power to a Clansman for combat. He had never used it before because it was not particularly necessary. After all, it was quite expensive.
As for the ‘divine power of stars’, it was only effective on him, and it could greatly increase his combat power. However, after obtaining it, he had no chance to fight with anyone, so of course he had no use for it.
but no matter what, they were all huge gains.
And this time, he encountered something he could touch.
However, the situation was very different. This time, he had encountered a restriction that prevented him from entering.
He tried to touch the door again and found that there was a very hard force inside. Even if they changed directions and went through the ground or walls, they couldn’t move forward when they encountered the restriction.
However, the more he could not enter, the more curious Lu Qing was about the situation inside.
“I think what Wanwan and that Lu man said is probably true.” Lu Qing thought, ” it seems like the legendary deer God really exists. It seems that this treasure trove was indeed left behind by the ancient divine deer. Otherwise, its status wouldn’t be so high. Under such circumstances, only those with pure bloodlines passed down by the divine deer are willing to offer themselves in order to open this place. In Qianqian’s opinion, there are still benefits in keeping that demoness alive. Later on, we will have to agree to her conditions.”
“Forget it, I’ll just treat it as killing less. I still have to see if that old deer is willing. If he really couldn’t do it, he could only break through this divine Deer Forest and capture all the demonic beasts here before negotiating with the deeress. With her saint-like personality, with the lives of thousands of demonic beasts as the bargaining chip, she should agree. However, this will be more of a loss. Not only will we not be able to get the spoils of war from killing the demon beasts, but we will also have to pay the cost of the war.”
“Anyway, let’s go back and talk about it.”
While he was thinking, he suddenly felt the world shake.
This vibration had nothing to do with the mystic realm. It should be another round of bombardment from the array-breaking cannon, causing the protective array of the divine Deer Forest to be turned upside down.
Looking at the chaotic state of the divine Deer Forest, round after round of cannon fire was equivalent to ringing an alarm in the hearts of these demonic beasts. In the future, they would probably agree to any conditions that the humans proposed.
After Lu Qing flew back to the human cultivators ‘camp, he sent a voice transmission to Li Yanling and Lu chaoxi to inform them of his decision.
“That secret place is more valuable than killing some demonic beasts, and it can also save us from losses in battle. Agree to that female deer demon and let her tell that old deer that if the divine Deer Forest surrenders unconditionally, we can spare their lives.”
Lu chaoxi was already used to hearing the voice transmission. However, even though Li Yanling was not shocked, she was still not used to it.
Wasn’t her father-in-law in Yuyan? He could control the situation of the battle at any time from such a long distance? Also, even the people themselves didn’t know what was inside the mystic area of the divine Deer Forest, yet you said that the benefits were greater than killing thousands of demonic beasts? That was more than 200000 spiritual stones!
When he saw the strange expression on Li Yanling’s face, Lu chaoxi guessed that his wife must have received his father’s message. He said, ” “Don’t worry too much. Father is always right. He’s not wrong.”
“Yes.” Li Yanling suppressed the doubts in her heart.
The two of them could be considered as the commander and deputy commander of this war. Since the two of them had made a unanimous decision, it was very difficult for the people below to have any room to object.
After all, even though the Lu family did not make up the majority of the North troops, most of the high-level cultivators were from the Lu family. The Lu family’s decisions were as important as their words.
The peace talks only began after the next round of bombardment.
Lu chaoxi and Lu Chaohe brought the tied-up deer vines and arrived in front of the forest of deer gods. The rolling Emerald Mist was right in front of them.
Old deer could see this scene. At first, he thought that the human cultivators had come to force him to open the forest protecting formation at the cost of his daughter’s life.
If that was the case, he would definitely not agree.
Although the chances of divine Deer Forest resisting the humans ‘attacks were very slim based on the current situation, they could not just not resist and wait to be slaughtered.
However, he did not know how to react to his daughter’s next words.
“Qianqian’s father, I’ve already told these humans about the secret land. They’ve agreed that as long as we open the forest protecting array and surrender unconditionally, they’ll be willing to let go of all our clan members in the divine Deer Forest. At that time, I will help them open the secret place, Pi Xiu.”
“A secret place? You can open the secret place?” Old deer obviously did not know about this.
three years ago, I found that my connection with the secret land was getting closer and closer. In one dream, I dreamed of my ancestors and also found the way to open it.
There was a moment of silence in the forest protection formation, and old deer’s voice came out again. these humans are lying to us. Even if we surrender and open the secret land, they might not let us go.
Lu man was stunned. She looked at the two Lu clan cultivators beside her.
there is no reason for me to lie about this, ” Lu chaoxi said. I can guarantee this in the name of the Lu family.
“I will believe your nonsense!”
Lu Chaohe could not help but say,”if you ask me, you don’t have much choice now.” If we don’t break through the divine Deer Forest, the people will be in great misery. Why don’t you surrender, open the secret place as promised, and bet on whether we will keep our promise. On one hand, he would die without a doubt, and on the other hand, there might still be hope of survival. Even if you’re not afraid of death, you can think of the thousands of people of your race in the forest of deer God.”
There was silence in the divine Deer Forest.
After a long while, old deer’s voice was heard again. “I know that you humans also have the technique of swearing with your divine soul. If the two of you swear with this, I can consider agreeing.”
Lu chaoxi rejected him immediately. what we want to see is the unconditional surrender of the divine Deer Forest. If there’s anything, you can tell us your demands after you have opened the formation of the divine Deer Forest and all the demons have given up on resisting and accepted the arrangements. We will not accept any conditions. However, I am here and I swear on the Lu family’s reputation that as long as you accept all arrangements, we will not go back on our word and kill the demons.”
At this moment, the human cultivators had the complete initiative. It was very unreliable to tie himself up with a soul oath.
The Lu family had no intention of going back on their word.
In battle, it was only right to be ruthless and unscrupulous. One’s own life was more important than the enemy’s.
The Lu family would not go back on their word and trick them into surrendering before killing them.
But how could such a thing be said well? The two initial enlightenment cultivators of the Lu clan had already made a soul oath. What if the Rogue cultivators or sect cultivators lost their minds and jumped out to attack or even kill the demonic beasts of the divine Deer Forest when they took over the divine Deer Forest? In fact, there might even be spies from the sect master’s or the hai clan’s bloodlines among the three hundred cultivators. If they found out about the soul oath and deliberately caused trouble, wouldn’t they be finished?
Even if there were no problems on their side, what would happen if the demonic beasts in the divine Deer Forest took the initiative to attack the human side and were counterattacked?
If one were to use a divine soul to make an oath, these things would have to be stipulated one by one and discussed in great detail. Not only was it a waste of time, but the more rules there were, the higher the possibility of loopholes being exploited.
A soul oath had a strong binding force and a strong backlash, but it was precisely because of this that it could not be used recklessly.
After hearing Lu chaoxi’s firm rejection, old deer fell silent again.
Outside, chaoxi, chaoxi, and the two brothers were not in a hurry. They had to give the others some time to discuss.
However, the humans would not stop attacking until they reached an agreement to surrender.
Soon, another round of artillery fire was fired.
Only two formation-breaking cannons were fired in this round. They were not as powerful as before, but there was no doubt that this was a warning and an urging.
The effect of urging him was still very good. The movement of the Emerald Mist became even more intense, as if it could break at any moment. This made the demonic beasts in the divine Deer Forest finally make up their minds.
we, Pi Xiu, surrender unconditionally. Humans, I hope you can keep your promise and not hurt our people.
Old deer made the final decision.
……
The subsequent events were more logical.
The forest protecting formation of the divine Deer Forest had been removed.
The human cultivators didn’t enter the forest openly. Li Yanling, Lu chaoxi, and the other high-level cultivators entered the forest first and occupied the core of the forest-protecting formation.
After that, a group of a hundred cultivators entered. They were supervising the demonic beasts in the forest and gathered in an empty space beside a lake in the middle of the forest. A dozen array Masters had set up a temporary array to ensure that no accidents would happen.
The entire process was relatively smooth. Many of the demonic beasts along the way had resentful expressions on their faces. However, under the threat of the high-level cultivators, in addition to the fact that they had already surrendered and their lives were still in the hands of these human cultivators, they didn’t dare to make too much of a move.
He wasn’t cooperative enough, but he was still honest.
Then this would do.
In any case, it wasn’t the human cultivators who arranged for them to gather and control them. The hundred or so cultivators who entered the arena were just watching from the side. The demonic beasts of the surrendered faction in the divine Deer Forest were maintaining order.
In addition, there was another group of people, about two hundred people, who had also entered and were moving around in the divine Deer Forest.
They were going to search the entire divine Deer Forest and take away everything they saw that was of value.
This was still a large sum of income.
The spiritual herbs in the divine Deer Forest were abundant. The life force and wood-type spiritual Qi in this place were abundant, making it suitable for the growth of spiritual herbs. Furthermore, there were many deer demons in the forest who were in charge of taking care of the spiritual herbs.
In fact, they even found quite a few stage three finished products.
There were also some magic tools of these demonic beasts.
In fact, very few demon beasts used magic tools. They trusted their physical bodies more-of course, it was also related to their poor forging skills-but there were always some special things.
In addition, there were also some less common materials. For example, the horns that the deer demon had dropped. Even if he took them away, he wouldn’t be able to hurt the demonic beasts.
All in all, the human cultivators could easily earn about 70000 to 80000 spirit stones from these items.
However, the price was that the divine Deer Forest had been razed clean. The wealth that the demonic beasts had accumulated over the decades had all fallen into the hands of human cultivators. The spiritual herbal garden had suffered a destructive harvest, and all the accumulated materials had been taken away. Even if Youyou and the others didn’t die, they would suffer a great financial loss. In the future, whether it was to train more and more powerful demon beast experts, or the cultivation of ordinary demon beasts, they would be greatly affected.
But what did Yingying’s actions have to do with human cultivators?
According to the agreement between the humans and the surrendered demonic beasts of divine Deer Forest, the search would last for five days. Humans could take as many things as they could, and they could even search the demonic beasts in the last two days as long as they didn’t hurt them.
During this time, Li Yanling and the other initial enlightenment cultivators would be there to keep watch, so there wouldn’t be too much of a problem.
Lu Qing did not care about these things.
At his signal, mingchao accompanied Wenen and Lu man to the secret place.
Old deer also wanted to come over, but he was rejected. With his strength at the peak of the 3rd rank, he had to stay put and Li Yanling had to personally watch over him. Otherwise, it would be easy for problems to arise.
After Lu man arrived at the secret place, Lu Qing could sense that this demoness had a mysterious and secret connection with the door that sealed the secret place.
Ming Chao pulled Wenen to the back and said to the DOE demon standing in front of the door, ” “Let’s start.”
He was so cold.
Lu man took a deep breath.
She knew that she would probably die Here.
However, she was still gratified.
At least for now, it seemed that the humans had kept their promise. After entering the divine Deer Forest, they did not start a massacre.
Next, it was time for her to fulfill her promise.
