Chapter 40 Cooperation
The blood drop slowly rose up, emitting a faint red fluorescence, shining like a crystal clear ruby.

Emperor Tian let out a long roar towards the sky, and the dragon roar seemed to tear the heaven and earth apart. The roar caused the ground to shake violently and the rocks on the cave walls to crack.

Lian Chen staggered and hit a rock. She instinctively grabbed it to steady herself.

Except for the three-eyed golden lion, all other ferocious beasts bowed their heads respectfully.

The blood bead glowed brighter until the dragon's roar was completely absorbed by it, and the cave returned to calm.

The huge dragon claw stretched out in front of Lian Chen: "Put your hand on this drop of dragon blood and swear an oath."

Lian Chen activated her martial spirit and the moment she opened her compound eyes, several huge monsters rushed into her field of vision, pressing down on her heart. An indescribable sense of fear wrapped around her throat, tightening little by little, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Her heart tightened and she swallowed slightly, feeling extremely lucky that she had the foresight to get rid of the spirit possession.

As the saying goes, out of sight, out of mind.

Lian Chen shifted his attention with difficulty, focusing on a round object the size of a peanut in front of him.

This is probably the dragon blood that Di Tian mentioned.

She raised her hand, and gently pressed her index finger against the round object, and said in a calm tone, "I, Lian Chen, swear an oath of heaven's punishment here today. I must sincerely save the soul beast clan. If there is any falsehood, I am willing to be punished by heaven and annihilated."

As the oath sounded, a circle of ancient dragon totems appeared under Lian Chen's feet, and blood beads flowed into it along the touching fingertips.

Outside the cave, a bolt of lightning struck the sky, and the oath with the effect of the laws of heaven and earth came into effect.

Di Tian nodded with satisfaction and agreed to cooperate: "Tell me, what do you need us to do for you?"

After the oath was over, Lian Chen released the spirit possession without wasting a moment, and the world returned to darkness. Without the ferocious beasts, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"At present, I need a high-quality spiritual soul beast with a cultivation base of about 12,000 years. Spiritual soul beasts are rare, and it is inconvenient for me to find one, so I ask for your help."

Upon hearing this, the red-gold fur all over the body of the Red King suddenly exploded, and the three mastiff heads roared at Lian Chen at the same time: "Human, you just said you wanted to save my soul beast clan, but now you want to hunt soul beasts? Are you kidding us?!"

Lian Chen explained the reason: "You misunderstood. Coming to Douluo Star, I have to abide by the cultivation rules of this world. I can't avoid hunting spirit rings to enhance my strength. Besides, without sufficient capital, what can I use to negotiate with the human high-level officials?"

The soul beasts were forced to accept Lian Chen's negotiation and cooperation due to the issue of survival. Humans were not in danger of extinction, so they could only show their cultivation talents and strength that would impress the human leaders in order to have the status to negotiate with them.

Di Tian said calmly: "Just a few high-quality spirit rings may not be enough to negotiate with the human leaders."

"Then... will adding another super-extreme ice-attribute martial soul be enough?" Lian Chen released his second martial soul, and a jade flute engraved with gold patterns appeared out of thin air, suspended in the air for several ferocious beasts to take a closer look.

"Super-ultimate attributes?!" Di Tian couldn't believe it. He released his mental power to feel the quality of the Snow Phoenix Ice King Flute. It was indeed higher than the quality of the ultimate martial spirit, and it also had a sacred aura.

It poked the jade flute with its claws: "What kind of martial spirit is this?"

"This is the Snow Phoenix Ice King Flute. It comes from my world." Lian Chen's lips curved slightly, and he said, "Twin martial spirits, spiritual attributes, and super-extreme attributes. Is this enough to negotiate with the high-level officials of the Sun-Moon Empire?"

The Star Dou Great Forest is located at the junction of the three major empires of Douling, Tianhun, and Xingluo. Although it is far away from the Sun and Moon Empire, Di Tian has heard that spiritual martial spirits are valued there and the quality of martial spirits is generally average.

Even with the help of these two twin martial souls and the addition of top-level spirit rings, she is in a position to negotiate with any country.

Di Tian said no more, turned around and told Zi Ji: "Zi Ji, go find a twelve thousand year old ghost spider yourself."

The Ghost Demon Spider was a top-level spiritual soul beast, and its quality was even better than Lian Chen's martial soul, the Lingxi Sky Spider.

This type of soul beast possesses an ability that can be described as abnormal.

——Bindle the enemy's mental power.

The ghost spiders are secretive and live in swamps full of poisonous miasma, making them extremely difficult to find and hunt. Lian Chen didn't expect Di Tian to be so generous.

Zi Ji flew out of the cave in response. While waiting, several ferocious beasts asked Lian Chen how he planned to negotiate.

"Will humans really agree to coexist with us?" The bear king scratched his dull head and asked the question that was lingering in the minds of the ferocious beasts.

Lian Chen said bluntly: "Of course humans will not agree. The conflict between humans and animals has lasted for tens of millions of years since ancient times. How can it be a problem that can be solved by negotiation?"

Brigitte lowered her neck and looked at her in confusion: "Little girl, why are you negotiating with the Sun-Moon Empire?"

"Have you ever heard of the term 'power overpowers'?" Lian Chen asked instead of answering.

Several ferocious beasts, some nodded, some shook their heads.

"We are going to negotiate in order to gain an opportunity to intervene in the regime. To put it simply: to seize power."

"If we take control of a country and use our political power to suppress it, they will have to agree even if they don't want to."

Lian Chen said it lightly, but it made the ferocious beasts quiet down all of a sudden.

Only Di Tian spoke up: "It's not easy to seize power in a country."

This is feasible, but difficult.

Lian Chen threw the question to the beast: "Besides this, do you have any other solution?"

"..."

Di Tian also remained silent.

Green light rippled from Brigitte's body, and in the blink of an eye, she transformed into a stunningly beautiful woman in human form.

She had long green hair, eyes of the same color that were so gentle that they almost sparkled, and a long green dress that outlined her slender figure. A pair of wings were gathered on her back, and each feather looked so gorgeous and dazzling, the bright green color was full of life.

She walked forward and broke the silence: "Little girl, are you blind? Do you need me to treat you?"

Brigitte looked closely at Lian Chen's eyes. His eyes were delicate in shape, and his purple pupils were clear and bright, but unfortunately they were empty and lifeless.

Lian Chen politely rejected her: "Thank you for your kindness, but my eyes are in a special condition and external treatment is ineffective, so there is no need to bother."

Her blindness was caused by the freezing of her kind heart, and to regain her sight she must melt the ice.

She would ask the God of Kindness how to melt the ice the next time she saw him.

Next, the man and five animals relaxed and introduced their identities and names to each other.

A spider the size of a car fell from the sky and landed next to Lian Chen.

The spider has eight extremely long legs, a pointed abdomen, and a completely black body with silvery-white patterns on its head and the back of its abdomen.

It was seriously injured by Zi Ji and was motionless, but it still had a breath left.

Another lighter sound of landing was heard, and Lian Chen guessed that it was the sound of Zi Ji falling.

She nodded in the direction of the voice and said, "Thank you."

"It's okay, just kill it quickly and absorb the spirit ring." Zi Ji's voice was cold and her tone was lazy and casual.
