Chapter 331: Another Deity Position
Looking at the face in the Ghost Qi, Jiang Lan remained silent.
The other party’s att.i.tude was somewhat different from what he had expected.
Although Ba Country was not smart, they shouldn’t act as such either.
The other party didn’t seem to mind his brainless actions.
He was not worried that the enemy was cunning.
Was it bravery or disguise?
Some people would indeed pretend to be brainless.
Ba Country…
It was hard to judge.
It is always right to be vigilant.
“I’m here to ask you to help me obtain a Deity Position.” The Ghost Qi continued.
“The people of Kunlun told me that there is another Deity Position in the Ancient Imperial Lower Palace. Furthermore, I have already obtained an opportunity to connect to the Deity Position.
I am just one step away. Of course, this final step is extremely difficult to take. I hope that someone like you who also has the Deity Position in the Ancient Imperial Lower Palace could help.
As a form of compensation, you will receive the friends.h.i.+p of Ba Country. Of course, as a human with a functioning brain, you will definitely scoff at this. We will use this as the side condition.”
“Then what is the main condition?” Jiang Lan asked softly.
He was not interested in this deal.
However, it was hard to say what would happen if he let the other party stay here.
He still didn’t understand the world of the strong.
“I can sense that you are not strong and do not know much about the Deity Position. I’ll tell you what I know.
From the moment I obtained the fortuitous encounter, I understood the existence of the Deity Position. As for the specific details of the Deity Position, I temporarily do not know.
However, I can sense that you have obtained the Deity Position.
There is also a saying that the heavens and earth are about to collapse and that there should be a great calamity descending.” The Ghost Qi said.
Jiang Lan remained silent.
This information was useless.
The only thing he could be sure of was the reason why the other party was willing to return back empty-handed even after he had killed his way from Ba Country to Kunlun.
It was because there was still a Deity Position available.
Otherwise…
How would he go back in three sentences?
The Ghost Qi should have known about this around that time.
He already knew that the world was about to collapse.
But he did not care.
His strength was limited, so it was useless to care about it.
The only thing he had to focus on was to become stronger.
And becoming stronger had nothing to do with the heaven and earth collapsing. He only wanted to live on stronger.
He just wanted his life to be stable.
He said nothing.
The other party was unable to move him.
“Human, do you have any questions?” The Ghost Qi felt that Jiang Lan didn’t react at all.
“Where does the Deity Position originate from?” Jiang Lan asked casually.
He had some interest, but not that much.
Because his cultivation was not high enough.
Knowing too much might not be beneficial to him.
“Hahaha.” The Ghost Qi laughed and said.
“I don’t know. Human, you think too highly of me. I only obtained an opportunity, but I don’t have a Deity Position. Even if I know about it, I won’t tell you so easily.”
“Aren’t you going to Kunlun to ask about your doubts?” Jiang Lan looked at the Ghost Qi and asked.
“Heh heh, I don’t have that much Qi now. I can’t beat them. If I were to go up now, I am just delivering myself to die. I admit that the people of Ba Country are brainless. But you can’t treat us as fools,” said the Ghost Qi. Then he changed the topic.
“Let’s continue talking about the benefits of helping me. After I advance to a.s.sume a Deity Position, you may be able to control your Deity Position more easily because of me, and you will also know more.
The main benefit is that I can leave you a door to Ba Country. You can also use our spell, Trespa.s.sing Of Otherworldly Soldiers. Although it would not be as strong as mine, it would make your life more convenient.
You can even use it to come to Ba Country. As a friend of Ba Country, Ba Country is the safest place for you.”
“What do you need me to do?” Jiang Lan asked.
These conditions were not that good, but it was not a bad thing to let the other party gain control of a Deity Position.
Although his progress was very fast, he was still unable to escape the eyes and ears of others.
This was also troublesome.
Although he didn’t have to worry about leaving Kunlun for the time being, if he was too far away, Imperial Lord Xi He and the others would discover him.
Furthermore, the Ghost Qi of Ba Country was not cleared even though he was in the proximity of Kunlun.
There was a certain possibility that this indicated Kunlun’s stand on this matter.
Or rather, Imperial Lord Xi He’s stance.
Kunlun should also want Ba Country to obtain a Deity Position.
Was it because it was better to have more people in control of Deity Positions, or was it something else?
It was hard to know.
“What do you need to do? Actually, you don’t need to do anything. You just need to respond to the Ba Nation’s sacrifice.
In a few years, a new round of sacrifice will begin in the Ba Country, and all you have to do is cast a rain spell.
You seem to be different from others who have a Deity Position. You can respond even from a distance.” The Ba Country’s Ghost Qi said.
Jiang Lan lowered his eyebrows.
It seemed that the others did indeed have strict distance restrictions. It was even difficult for them to leave wherever they were.
“I can promise you, but you have to promise me one thing. I’ll tell you about the condition later. It will definitely be something you can do,” Jiang Lan said.
“Hahaha.” The Ghost Qi laughed.
“No problem.”
Jiang Lan didn’t say anything else.
It was not difficult for him to cast a rain spell, and he did not know the exact effect.
But he did not ask.
He only asked for one condition. This condition had no clear use.
He wanted to keep it as a backup plan.
As for the Ba Country leaving its doors open to him…
It was useless.
It was impossible for him to trust Ba Country. The safest place was still Kunlun.
It was the same for that condition. He did not expect the other party to repay it.
What he wanted the most this time was to control his own Deity Position.
After making the deal, Jiang Lan left the cave.
The other party seemed to have stayed for a period of time and said that Kunlun seemed to be of great help to him in obtaining the Deity Position.
He wasn’t the only one who said that.
The people of the Heavenly Human Race also said this.
It seemed like Kunlun was very special.
After leaving the cave, Jiang Lan returned to his summit peak to train.
…
Five days later.
Jiang Lan returned to the Ninth Summit.
After informing his master, he continued setting up the array formation.
After returning to the Ninth Summit, Jiang Lan did not find his master and planned to head to the Jade Pool.
Before he left, he specially watered the vegetative egg and Udumbara Flower.
All these years, their lives hadn’t been that bad.
Their spirits were as good as ever.
After raising them for hundreds of years, they were still as carefree as ever.
…
…
Kunlun Main Hall.
“The Eighth Prince seems to have fallen into our hands again.” Miao Yue smiled.
“The Dragon Race hasn’t made much noise recently. They’re probably competing with us to see who has more patience,” said Liu Jing.
“They don’t know enough. They don’t know the true value of the Eighth Prince. However, when will the objective of Ba Country’s Ghost Qi be achieved?” Zhu Qing asked curiously.
“Let’s see when that mysterious person will appear. Of course, it does not make much difference whether the other party appears or not.
Ba Country’s Ghost Qi has already arrived. It is unlikely that it would leave anytime soon. Just like the others.” First Summit’s Feng Yixiao said.
“The G.o.ddess is about to become an immortal. Should we talk about the wedding?” Miao Yue asked.
“Did Chen Xi say anything?” Liu Jing asked.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, the words of the Sixth Summit’s summit leader, Chen Xi, would determine their subsequent general direction.
