Since there was only an 80% chance of āseizing the sword and detonating itā, why couldnāt he change his train of thought and add 100 million points of calculation to ensure that he could obtain the Magi Soul Sword and cause more damage to the demons?
In that case, even if more than half of the negative karma demons managed to escape, the overall gains might be greater. Although he had devised plenty of schemes, it was ultimately for meritā¦ However, if he had the confidence to take care of his personal needs, interests, and longevity, why not? Hence, the two incarnations belonging to Li Changshou and the Jade Emperor quietly retreated to an inconspicuous corner of the underground array formation.
Li Changshou thought for an hour and devised schemes for another hour. In less than two hours, he drew up a complete plan and began a comprehensive discussion with the Jade Emperor.
In the end, there were less than 0.1% changes to the overall planā¦ However, he had to give the Jade Emperor, who had been watching by the side, a sense of participation! Due to the time constraint, Li Changshou did not have time to formulate many backup plans. Therefore, he used the current plan as the main idea and left a few backup plans for the segments that could easily change.
Even if there were any changes, he had to develop the storyline and bring it back to the original main storyline! The overall idea of plotting against the demons was actually very simple. It was just a simple idea of āsurrounding and attacking the reinforcementsā.
To be precise, he had to pretend to surround the place and ensure that the negative karma demons could not leave with the sword. That would alarm the demons who knew about the matter and send reinforcements. Then, he would take away the Magi Soul Sword and complete a huge spirit explosion with the smallest loss!
Any demon who knew about the refinement of the Magi Soul Sword would not be considered innocent.
This matter sounded simple, but it was extremely complicated. How could he stabilize the demons and make them come to the conclusion that they were āprotecting this placeā and not āescaping with their swordsā? How could he make the demons not suspect anything during the first half of the plan and let their reinforcements enter the area within a radius of 50 kilometers?
The most difficult part of this process was how to make the Heavenly Courts gain the upper hand, convince the masses, and show their might while Li Changshou remains free of any karmaā¦
That would require some plots and schemes.
To be safe, Li Changshou still reported his only worry to the Jade Emperorā¦ āYour Majesty, if we can injure the essence energy of the demons this time, there is a small possibility that we will attract a Saint to mediate the fight. Then, even all our efforts do not get wasted, we will still be in trouble.ā
āChanggeng, donāt worry.ā The Jade Emperorās incarnation said seriously, āAccording to the arrangements here, the demons can be convicted of failing to accept the heavenly mandate. Putting everything else aside, just the evil sword alone could condemn the demons! If the Saint behind the demons is blindly protecting them, I will have to go to the Purple Cloud Palace to explain the cause and effect and ask the Dao Ancestor to uphold justice!ā Li Changshou smiled and said, āYour Majesty, youāre tough.ā āItās destiny.ā Since the scapegoat had been foundā¦ ahem! Since the Jade Emperor was already prepared to face Saint Nuwa, Li Changshou did not have many worries. He immediately began to make preparations. The preparation work was mainly divided into three parts. Firstly, he could mobilize a sufficient number of paper effigies to come here and equip them with enough immortal beans. Secondly, the Heavenly Courts would prepare 300,000 troops. The Jade Emperor would also have to attack from behind and borrow the power of the Heavenly Dao at any time. Thirdly, they needed to find a Demon King who was not very smart but was rather powerful and had some influenceā¦
The third point is especially important. Li Changshou and the Jade Emperor each had an incarnation hiding in the underground array. They hid quietly and were prepared to attack at any time. After settling the two incarnations, the ordinary Heavenly Emperor and ordinary officials began to get busy. In the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, the Jade Emperor summoned General Dongmu and ordered him to immediately organize the troops. In three days, 300,000 troops of the Heavenly Courts would gather and await orders at the Middle Heavenly Gate, the Western Heavenly Gate, and the South Heavenly Gate.
There was no need to ask about the specific orders. He could just announce it to the public. Outside the underground array, Li Changshouās paper effigies carefully moved around and occupied a few vital spotsā¦
There were not many places in the world that could allow him to earn great merit. Li Changshou had long planned to kill the demons. Previously, he had been thinking that after the Heavenly Courts recruited a million soldiers, he would start to use the demons to train their troops. He would mix the paper effigies with them and obtain some merit from the negative karma demons.
However, this time, with the matter of the Magi as a guide, Li Changshou was determined to do something big. He wanted to obtain a huge amount of merit from the demonsā negative karma and help the Golden Body of Merit succeed as soon as possible!
Although he had only been given a short time to prepare, he could still plan as thoroughly as possibleā¦ In a certain forest above the underground array, Li Changshouās paper effigy looked at the little demon that had been knocked unconscious.
He originally wanted to ask for some information, but he smiled faintly.
He first sealed the little demonās soul. Then, he took off the cloak on the little demonās body and draped it over himself.
Li Changshou transformed and used the transformation technique to transform into the figure and appearance of the little demon. Then, he pulled out the little demonās soul and wrapped it with the True Samadhi Flames.
After a while, the demonic soul woke up and shivered in the fire.
Li Changshou said coldly, āAnswer every question I ask. If you donāt answer them, your soul will scatter. If you can answer all of them, I can let your soul reincarnate since you donāt have too much negative karma.ā
The demon soul of the little demon almost cried.
Li Changshou deliberately waited for a while. When the little demonās soul calmed down, he asked, āWhere is this place? How many demon kings are there?ā
āThis place is called the Demon Ascension Mountain. There are six Great Kingsā¦ā Li Changshou nodded and asked, āIs there anything unusual here?ā The little demonās demonic soul shouted with a trembling voice, āNothing unusual! āLordā¦ Iām just a little demon who has cultivated for thousands of years. I donāt have much ability. Iām usually in charge of patrolling the mountain to see if any human cultivators have barged in.ā Li Changshou nodded slowly. The True Samadhi Flames shrank slightly, and the demonic soul immediately squeaked. āSpare me! Lord, spare me! Iāve seen it a few times. A few seniors crawled out of the ground and went to the South Continent to eat humans! When I reported this to my King, he told me to shut up. Otherwise, he will destroy my entire family!ā āHmph!ā Li Changshou retracted his True Flames and looked at the dispirited demonic soul. He said calmly, āAre there any rumors regarding the Demon Ascension Mountain?ā
āRumorsā¦ rumorsā¦ there are rumors!ā The little demonās soul trembled. Under the threat of having his soul getting scattered, he could not care too much.
āIāve heard from the older generals that this is a crucial place for the revival of the saints. The few Great Kings here are all chosen talents. Their futures are limitlessā¦ā
āTell me in detail what you know about the six demon kings here. Tell me about your Great King first.ā
āYes, yesā¦ My King is wise and mighty. He can fight well and is said to have an indestructible golden body!ā
āHuh?ā
āNo, no, no. The old demon on the mountain is a rhinoceros demon with a wretched appearance. He has thick skin and is the toughest. He is also lustful and lecherous. He has three Cave Abodes on the mountain. He had snatched all six of his wives by force. He even brags to us every day that he is extremely charming and that these demonesses are throwing themselves at him!ā āContinue. The more detailed, the better.ā
Thus, an hour laterā¦
Bang!
Bang!
A small demon wearing light armor and a cloak emerged from the forest. A wisp of ashes floated behind him and returned to the ground. He swayed three times in two steps. He swayed his head, waist, and the wooden mallet in his hand. He knocked the clapper in his hand a few more times and shouted with a teasing tone, āGreat King is wise. He asked me to patrol the mountain! I ensure that there is peace everywhere and the humans do not dare to offend us!ā This attracted the attention of the lesser demons and demonic beasts in the mountains.
There was no choice. That was the slogan of the demons patrolling the mountain. Li Changshou could not change it. At that moment, the patrolling demon was naturally Li Changshouās paper effigy in disguise. The body of the originally patrolling demon had already been burned. His demonic soul was imprisoned in a pearl by Li Changshou. After that, he would fulfill his promise and let him reincarnate. Now that he had the pearl with him, he could ask the little demon for some information at any time, lest he exposed himself laterā¦
Just like that, Li Changshou knocked on the clapper and wandered around the mountain for half a round before returning to his residence. He turned into a gust of demonic wind and flew back to the mountainside at the third peak of the Demon Ascension Mountain.
There was a valley there that contained a Cave Abode in the deepest part. There were long intersecting caves that extended in all directions. Thousands of demons were gathered there. That was the Demon King Rhinocerosā Cave!
Without any surprise or danger, Li Changshou, who had transformed into a mountain patrol demon, easily sneaked into the cave and frantically tried to obtain information. He even successfully met the demon king there and assessed the strength of the rhinocerosā¦
He was at the peak of the Heaven Immortal realm and was a weakling with mottled demonic powers. Clearly, the rhinoceros demon was in charge of guarding the underground array. It did not matter if he was weak. What was important was his status as the Demon King and the special position of the Demon Ascension Mountain. To be safe, Li Changshou checked the Demon Kingās Cave a few more times. After confirming that there were no experts lying in ambush, he activated the official plan.
The first scene of āPlotting Against The Demonsā: A Fairy Descends into the World!
āAo Yi, do you want merit?ā
Ao Yi, who was floating quietly on the cloud with eight Magi behind him, could not help but be stunned when he heard his Brother Sect Masterās voice transmission.
Li Changshou smiled and said, āThereās something that I need help with this time. The risk is not high, and the benefits of merit should not be small. Itās easy for me to expose myself by using the paper effigy.ā Ao Yi immediately nodded, his eyes filled with determination. Soon, Ao Yi followed Li Changshouās instructions and flew to the Middle Continent to settle the eight Magi including Ox-head and Horse-face. He left the paper effigy that he carried with him to Ox-head and Horse-face for future ācommunicationā. The eight experts of the Magi race were also a precious force. Li Changshou would not waste them. Ao Yi immediately rushed to the place where he had agreed to meet Li Changshou. In a dense forest, he saw the paper effigy that Li Changshou had transformed into a young Daoist.
Andā¦
A barrier and a dressing tableā¦
āBrother! What do you need me for?ā
Li Changshou said seriously, āCome, pretend to be Miss Ke Leāer first. This matter is quite complicated. Iāll tell you step by step.ā āUhā¦ā
Ao Yi blinked and looked at his Brother Sect Master. He could only walk forward quickly.
He would naturally do whatever the Sect Master said. It was fine even if he wanted his dragon soul.
Li Changshou said, āRegarding this matter, itās easy to see through the illusions and transformation techniques. Itās best to do your makeup straightaway.ā
āBrother, are you going to mess with Bian Zhuang?ā Ao Yi asked as he sat in front of the dressing mirror obediently. He recalled some of the tricks that his wife had used when she was putting on makeup and began to do it.
āWhy are you messing with Bian Zhuang?ā
Li Changshou smiled and said, āHereās the thing. I need you to put on a show later and pretend to be injured. You will be saved by a Demon King and then let the Demon King declare war on the Heavenly Courts.ā
Ao Yiās hand trembled, and his eyebrows twitched. āCanā¦ this be done? It sounds like the demon king has lost his mind.ā
āItās up to the person to do it.ā Li Changshou smiled calmly. āLove between a man and a woman can easily make living beings lose their minds. Letās give it a try. If it doesnāt work, we will have a backup plan.ā āYes!ā
Ao Yi nodded gently and quickly began to draw his eyebrows and blush. Li Changshou was slightly surprised as he watched from the side. āWhy are you so proficient?ā
āWellā¦ā Ao Yi smiled in embarrassment.ā I often help Siāer with theseā¦ā
āYou and Siāer are quite loving.ā Li Changshou calmly changed the topic and asked with a smile, āWhen are you planning to have an heir? As your childās uncle, Iām always ready to give you congratulatory gifts.ā Ao Yi said in a low voice, āItās still earlyā¦ The dragon race has been suffering recently. Itās more important to survive together.ā āItās good to celebrate.ā Li Changshou took out a few Daoist robes from his sleeve and began to think about how to change them into a little immortal dress. Ao Yi took a few glances and muttered softly, āSiāer has a wardrobe with me. Brother, donāt be anxious. Iāll change into it later.ā Li Changshou could not help but take two steps back. This little dragonās hobby is quite unique.
Letās talk about serious matters.
Ao Yi dressed up. Ke Leāer, whom he had not seen for a long time, appeared again. She was dressed in an immortal dress, a pair of cloud boots, and her long hair was tied up into a ponytail. Her Adamās apple was hiddenā¦
Most importantly, Li Changshou took out two sachets. He let Ke Leāer hang one on his waist while he kept the other for backup.
Fifth-grade Spirit Pill: Flame of Heart
After making those arrangements, Ke Leāer quietly flew into the sky. Li Changshouās paper effigy transformed into a silver-armored Heavenly General and released sixteen paper effigies with the original mystical abilities, turning into sixteen Heavenly Soldiers.
At night, Li Changshou activated several bolts of lightning! Thunder rumbled and lightning flashed in the sky. A beautiful figure staggered and fell from the clouds. More than ten figures chased after her. Coincidentally, the figure landed on the Demon Ascension Mountain. More than ten Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals chased after her!
At the same time, he shouted to remind the demons, āThe Heavenly Courts have captured the sinful immortals. All living beings are to avoid them!ā
The demons within a radius of hundreds of kilometers were alarmed. Demonic senses swept over, and they were all shocked.
At that moment, in the Rhinoceros Kingās Cave Abode, a demon patrolling the mountain shouted, āReporting! King! Some Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals have chased a female immortal to the mountain! At this moment, they are fighting in the back mountain. They are only tens of kilometers away from us!ā
āGot it. Whatās the hurry?ā
The burly man who was soaking in the pool stood up.
His appearance when he transformed was not ugly. It was just that the horns on his nose looked a little out of place.
The rhinoceros spirit jumped out of the pool, summoned its armor, and carried the iron ax. It used the ādemonic windā mystical ability that was more popular among the demons. It swept up more than ten Demon Generals and more than a hundred small demons and headed towards the back of the mountain.
In the blink of an eye, the rhinoceros demon saw the location of the āintense battleā.
There was a female immortal whose dress was stained with blood. There were wounds on her waist and shoulder. She held two short swords and fought with the Heavenly Generalā¦
However, after taking a glance at the female immortal, the Rhinoceros Kingās eyes turned blurry. The fairy in his eyes was not in a sorry state at all. Her beautiful figure was wrapped in gentle light, and she was actually so beautiful that heā¦ felt his heart race.
At that moment, the Rhinoceros King heard some panting sounds. He turned his head and saw that the demon generals and demon soldiers he had brought were all red-faced and panting heavily. āWhat are you looking at!?!ā roared, āTurn around! Iāll kill you all!ā The group of Demon Soldiers and Demon Generals trembled and quickly turned around. The Rhinoceros King looked at the battle between the fairy and the Heavenly General. His eyes were gradually filled with tenderness. With a clang, the ox ax landed beside his feet. He interlocked his fingers and placed them beside the huge face plate, rubbing it gently. āAh, I might have fallen in love at first sight againā¦ā
Gradually, even his eyes turned into peach blossoms.
The Heavenly General shouted from the battlefield, āDonāt make me kill you! Follow me back to the Heavenly Courts to report!ā āBig Brother!ā The āfemale immortal Ke Leāerā shouted firmly, āI will decide my own marriage! I will never become a Dharma artifact for you to curry favor with those gods of authority!ā Big Brother? Marriage? To curry favor with the gods of authority!
The Rhinoceros Kingās eyes lit up as he instantly imagined a huge scene. The Heavenly General scolded again, āIām doing this for your own good!ā āIf itās for my own good, let me go free and let me find my own marriage!ā As soon as the āfemale immortalā finished speaking, she was hit by the Heavenly Generalās spear. Her graceful figure was sent flying and fell to the ground. She stood up stubbornly.
The Rhinoceros King subconsciously took half a step forward and raised his hand from afar. He wanted to catch the female immortalās falling body, but he was far from itā¦ āYour marriage?ā
The Heavenly Generalās expression was cold. He raised his hand and made a gesture. The ten or so Heavenly Soldiers stopped in their tracks. The Heavenly General said calmly, āThat is your marriage.ā
āNo!ā
The female immortal swayed as she stood up with her sword. She shouted, āMy lover is tall and strong. He has the power to protect me!ā
Oh?
The Rhinoceros King lowered his head and looked at himself. His toned chest muscles began to pulsate rhythmically.
āThe person I love can soar through the clouds and ride the fog. Heās wearing armor, holding a sharp weapon, and wearing a red cloak. He can hold up the sky and the earth!ā The Rhinoceros King silently pulled out a red cloak and put it on. He then grabbed the ax on the ground. āThe person I love will eventually appear in front of me, even if he is a demon, a human, or an immortalā¦ā
āRascal!ā
The Heavenly General shouted angrily, āIāll fulfill your wish today! Iāll pretend that I never had a sister like you!ā As soon as he finished speaking, he swept his spear horizontally and smashed it at the female immortal, Ke Leāer, without showing any mercy!
At that moment, a gust of wind blew from the side. An iron ax swept over and sent the spear flying! The Heavenly General took the opportunity to retreat. His eyes widened as the sixteen Heavenly Soldiers quickly flew over to protect his general. After the violent wind, a burly figure blocked the female immortal. He raised his head, puffed out his chest, and raised his ax. His red cloak was fluttering. He turned his head slightly and looked at the shocked fairy behind him. At some point in time, he had hidden the nose of the rhinoceros horn and spat out a wisp of white fog. āFairy, donāt be afraid. Iā¦ā
āFairy! Iām here to save you!ā
Huh?
The Rhinoceros King frowned and looked in the direction of the shout. However, he saw a demonic wind flying past in the sky. The lion-headed king, who was on the mountain beside him, jumped down. The demon was covered in golden fur. Its strong muscles were slightly bulging, and it even emitted a faint floral fragranceā¦ The lion-headed king actually hid his proudest lion head and transformed into a handsome golden-haired man. The red cloak on his back fluttered slightly as he waved his hand.
āGeneral Rhinoceros, retreat. You are not a match for this Heavenly General.ā
General!
Screw you!
They were all demons who had occupied the mountain and were advancing later. Why were they pretending to be powerful demons!?! Just as the Rhinoceros King was about to curse, a cold snort sounded from the side. A handsome burly man that was transformed from a wolf demon jumped out. He was also wearing a red cloakā¦ āMarshal Lion, General Rhinoceros, retreat. None of you are a match for this Heavenly General!ā
Then, two demonic winds blew overā¦
Ke Leāer was speechless. She secretly looked at Li Changshouās paper effigy. A voice transmission entered Ke Leāerās heartā¦
āItās time to test your acting skills. If thereās one of them, bluff them, if there are five or six, get them drunk. My paper effigy will support you from the side. Donāt worry.
Ke Leāer was speechless.
The Heavenly General glared at the demons furiously and said coldly, āAre you demons going to be nosy?ā
The lion-headed king smiled and said, āBigā¦ā
āBrother-in-law, please!ā
The Rhinoceros King took a huge step forward and shouted, āFairy is tired today. Why donāt you let her rest for a few days before giving Brother-in-law an answer!? Weāre all family. Donāt ruin the harmony!ā
He said coldly, āGet lost!ā The Heavenly General shouted angrily and was about to move forward with his spear.
However, the demon kings unleashed their auras simultaneously. There were two Golden Immortal realm demon kings thereā¦ āAlright! Just you wait!ā Li Changshou, who was disguised as a Heavenly General, gritted his teeth and cursed. Then, he turned around and rode a cloud, rushing away with the sixteen Heavenly Soldiers.
The five burly demon kings turned around and looked at Ke Leāer.
āFairy!ā
At the same time, they stopped talking and looked at each other. The hostility in their eyes increased! Not long after, the five demon kings fought. Fortunately, Ke Leāer stopped them in time. According to Li Changshouās reminder, Ke Leāer opened the restrictions on the treasure pouch and closed the Flame of Heart. Then, she stood up with her sword and went to the forest to recuperateā¦ The five demon kings looked at each other and snorted coldly.
Then, they followed her. Li Changshou was rendered speechless. Alright, the first scene was completed smoothly. The second scene of the fairy complaining and being angry for a beauty had to be played out as soon as possible. Any delay would cause changes. As Li Changshou prepared for the next scene, he had to ensure Ao Yiās safety. It was just a show. He could not let these demon kings take advantage of him! Apart from that, the deployment of troops was already underway. Li Changshou closed his eyes and adjusted them slightly. He redistributed the power of his mind and began to activate the āCarriageā paper effigies. Deploy the paper effigies guarding the sect. Deploy the paper effigies on guard at Anshui City.
Deploy the paper effigies assisting the East Ocean.
Deploy the paper effigies in the South Ocean. Deploy the paper effigies at the West Oceanās Sea Eye.
Deploy the paper effigies at the North Oceanā¦ Although 60% of the paper effigies were rushing to the desolate corner of the Primordial World, Li Changshou still felt that it was not safe. A paper effigy of the Water God took the initiative to rush to the Tushita Palace.
An hour laterā¦ At the entrance of the Pill Chamber of the Immortal Du Sect, Little Qiong Peak,a small Taiji Painting slowly condensed and a small pagoda emerged from it. The small pagoda shone with ripples, as if it was summoning something. Lingāe, who was meditating on the meditation cushion by the door, could not help but open her eyes and look around in a dazeā¦ A large hand reached out from the side and held the little pagoda. Li Changshouās voice entered Lingāeās heart.
āCultivate in peace. I have something to do.ā āOh,ā Lingāe agreed. She blinked her eyes before closing them again, returning to the state of Dao enlightenment. Li Changshou looked at the small pagoda in his palm and listened to the Pagoda Masterās cheers in his heart. He could not help but smile. He sighedā¦ Since when did my main body become my trump card?
Be steady. With the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda above your head, make a fire rescue team. The Heavenly Courts still lack a group of high-level fightersā¦
