The King of Black Fog

Chapter 1319 580: Mutual Aid

"Alright." Turquoise Pool agreed directly, "You help us seize a Saint Position once with all your might, and we will help you in return with all ours."

It's impossible for them to help the Crown Princess first; after she becomes a Saint, who will assist them?

"Alright, let's settle on that." The Crown Princess nodded.

In critical times, time is precious, and the three did not fuss over details.

"All three of us, we are willing to join you." Twelve Heavenly Positions emerged from the vines.

This was a small group that had allied earlier; they were not dominant, but they managed to survive without losing members due to mutual aid, which was quite impressive.

Of the hundred thousand Heavenly Positions entering the Holy Temple, only near ten thousand remain; for every ten, nine die, yet none of them had perished.

"No problem," Turquoise Pool agreed as usual, "Now that we have many people, besides the Crown Princess, whoever among us has an opportunity, both she and the other side must assist with all their effort."

"If someone becomes a Saint, the Saint group must fully support the other two sides; if no one does, then whoever has the opportunity, the other two must aid fully."

The leader among the Twelve Heavenly Positions said, "There's one additional condition: if none of us becomes a Saint, Turquoise Pool and Black Fog friends, please shelter our cultivation."

At this point, all Heavenly Positions must begin considering their retreats.

They aren't afraid of the Sub-Saints, only concerned about that batch of people who become Saints accounting or oppressing them, and the King of Black Fog is undoubtedly the best collaborator, already holding two Saint Positions, and possessing the Primordial Divine Body, even Saints have to be wary of him.

With the protection of Saints, they can at least survive and still have a slim chance to cultivate into Saints by themselves.

"Everyone helps each other." Li Changzhou spoke up, "Even after becoming Saints, we can continue to ally. How does the Crown Princess feel about it?"

The Crown Princess smiled and said, "Okay."

She was not only forging alliances but maintaining a certain order she proposed, which granted her extra Strength.

"Then," the leader of the Twelve Heavenly Positions said, "let's sign the Contract."

He was named Tian Shi, the holder of [Heavenly Intent·Oath].

The Grand Path roared, rain of light fell, laws, contracts, handprints, seals, and blood oaths appeared in the Void as phenomena.

Heavenly Will intertwined, transforming into a piece of oath paper.

Li Changzhou's eyes lit up with a faint divine light, watching the scene.

"Black Fog friend, please don't take it to heart, we are not mistrusting you, it's just that this is beneficial for all three sides." Tian Shi explained.

Li Changzhou chuckled: "Ah Shi, you misunderstood, before cultivation, I studied Law, so for a moment... should I say I miss the past, or am I excited by the hunt?"

— He is lying.

The holder of [Heavenly Will·Mind] among the Twelve Heavenly Positions secretly communicated with the other eleven.

They didn't care much, as long as agreeing to cooperate with them was genuine, everything else was trivial.

"I oversee order, Brother Oath, we can have a chat when we're free." The Crown Princess also added.

"No problem." Tian Shi nodded.

The terms were simple, besides mutual help as Turquoise Pool mentioned, there was also an agreement to ally before the 'victor's' final showdown.

Fifteen people imprinted their own Heavenly Intent.

"Alright, let's go!" Tian Niu among the Twelve dragged a giant axe, eager to move forward.

Fifteen people allied, including the King of Black Fog and the Crown Princess as top powerhouses, even though they were falling behind now, they might still have a chance to become Saints.

Truly, blessings and disasters depend on each other.

"Hold on." Turquoise Pool gave a small smile and said, "I think we can act separately, this way the chance of becoming Saints might be slightly higher."

Although they said separate actions, there was only one Holy Road, and everyone merely pretended to stay alert towards each other, without an appearance of true alliance.

'What happened just now? Was there an issue with the oath?' Turquoise Pool asked.

She couldn't have missed Li Changzhou's odd behavior a moment ago.

'No issue, at least I didn't notice any, just saw him using Heavenly Intent means, thought I could learn a thing or two.'

'Without "Concentration" and "Wisdom Pearl," you're still so clever?' Turquoise Pool chuckled, somewhat teasing her husband like a wife praising him.

'Whether in battle, having "Concentration" and "Wisdom Pearl" makes no difference to me.'

Cultivation is a broad category, Enlightenment and combat Talent are not necessarily related; Li Changzhou's Enlightenment wasn't as good as Yang Qinglan's, but in a fight of equal Strength, five Yang Qinglan couldn't stop even one of him.

'You gave "Concentration" and "Wisdom Pearl" to Qing Lan; when will you give me something like that too?'

She still remembered that.

'..... Whatever Sister Yao wants, I will give.'

'I want two children.' Turquoise Pool said, slightly shy.

Li Changzhou thought that any man should favor Turquoise Pool; it's a principle that allows no exceptions.

Across the cosmic regions, all beings still watch the scenes, though there's no more pointing fingers at the world as before.

"We should have known, from being forced to watch battles it was already suggested about our status."

"We are not spectators, but prizes!"

The existing world dimmed, civilization has begun to collapse, countless people fled to the universe.

Yet wherever life exists, the images of the Holy Road inevitably project, as if telling them that escape is futile, the entire universe is the prize.

Earth's Six Great Stars breathed a sigh of relief.

"We already have two Saints and will have more, far safer than other civilizations."

"To spill some insider news, a civilization has applied to join Earth's civilization."

"To prevent illegal immigration, strongly demanding to build walls!"

In addition, the peace Li Qianxia dreamed of has essentially been realized, and hatred from the thirty-six new worlds towards Earth's civilization quickly diminished.

The universe will soon become the territory of twelve Saints; their joining Earth means, at least in terms of treatment, they won't become slaves.

However, hoping for complete disappearance of hatred is impossible.

Moreover, Saints aren't the ultimate victors; the one who laughs last on the final podium is still uncertain.
