The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

As Li Qing finished speaking, the atmosphere in the conference room instantly became heated.

Representatives of several medium-sized forces were whispering to each other, with inexplicable light flashing in their eyes.

When the demon lords from the powerful forces heard this, they frowned.

Only the Black Turtle Demon Venerable could not wait to ask: "This plan is very good, but it may be difficult to implement it. Does the Shadow Tower Master have a more detailed plan?"

Li Qing nodded and began to elaborate on his plan.

From destroying the existing ascension platform to how to concentrate resources to cultivate a sixth-level strongman.

From repairing the destroyed ascension platform and changing the transmission path, to how to find a safe place in the spirit world...

Every detail was considered carefully and thoroughly, as if he had been preparing for this moment for countless days and nights.

Everyone present listened attentively. From time to time, some nodded in agreement, while others looked silent.

As the words of the Shadow Tower Master slowly fell, a tense atmosphere filled the entire platform, as if an invisible contest was condensed in the air.

Ying Guozhu, the great general from the Tianyu Demon Dynasty, finally could not suppress his inner doubts and disdain, and broke the silence by speaking.

His voice, with a hint of cold sarcasm, echoed on the empty platform. Every word was like a sharp blade, pointing directly at the weak spot of Shadow Tower Master's plan: "Shadow Tower Master, your so-called 'grand plan' is nothing but a mirage in my opinion. It is illusory and empty."

"Let's not talk about whether the resources of the demon world can cultivate a sixth-level demon. Even if it can, who should these resources be concentrated on?"

"You are trying to tie the future of all of our demon race to a fragile thread with this absurd plan. This is not only ridiculous, but also a great insult to us."

He paused for a moment, his eyes like torches, scanning every demon representative present, and continued, "Resources in the demon world are already scarce, and every bit of strength must be used to the best effect."

"The difficulty of training a sixth-level demon race expert you mentioned is as great as searching for a specific grain of gold sand in a vast sea of ​​sand."

"Not to mention, this requires the demon race to not only have outstanding talents, but also to master the method of setting up the ascension platform that even we have never touched."

"Let me ask you, with such an existence, looking at the entire demon world, who else can take on this important task except you, the owner of the Ghost Shadow Tower?"

The Eagle State Pillar's words became more and more intense. He stood up, his figure straight, like an eagle about to spread its wings and fly high: "Why should we go to so much trouble to cultivate a being that we don't know when it will be able to grow up, and whether it can truly serve the demon race after it grows up?"

"Looking at your real purpose, I'm afraid you want to take this opportunity to take all the limited resources in the demon world into your own pocket and realize your ambition of ascending safely!"

"Isn't this clearly asking us to empty our family's savings to help you succeed?"

He changed the subject, his tone becoming more resolute and sarcastic: "If we can train a sixth-level warrior to ascend to the spirit world on his own, why would we need to look for a demon race that can set up an ascension platform?"

"The Ascender only needs to reach the spirit world, find the existing demon clan forces, and ask for help from them. In this way, the coordinates can be relocated to arrange the ascension platform."

"Besides, even if you ascend to the spirit world, you will still need to find materials for the layout. At that time, you can only ask for help from the demon forces in the spirit world to complete it."

"Just based on these few points, your plan is full of loopholes. It's obvious that you are deliberately plotting against us!"

The Eagle State Pillar's gaze intentionally or unintentionally swept across the Black Turtle Demon Lord standing beside him, and there was both scrutiny and warning in his eyes.

Obviously, he had already seen through the subtle relationship between the Black Turtle Demon Lord and the Lord of the Shadow Tower, which made him even more suspicious of the whole matter.

"Black Turtle Demon Lord, you and I both know that true unity and cooperation should be based on honesty and trust."

"Rather than being used by some evildoers with ulterior motives as it is now, becoming a stepping stone for his ambitions."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the entire conference hall became more subtle, and the representatives of the demon tribes all whispered to each other and discussed a lot.

"What Ying Guozhu said is not entirely unreasonable. The candidate is indeed none other than the owner of Youying Tower. Could this really be a conspiracy of the owner of Youying Tower?" someone echoed.

"It's possible. Now that Broken Heart Mountain is controlled by the Heavenly Demon, we will die if we ascend. The Shadow Tower Master is doing this so that he can ascend safely by stepping on our heads."

"I was wondering why the owner of the Shadow Tower was so kind as to reveal this important news. It turns out it was for this reason."

"Don't be anxious, fellow Taoists. Let's wait and see how the owner of the Shadow Tower explains it before we draw any conclusions." A cultivator suggested.

"That's right. If the owner of the Shadow Tower had good intentions and wanted to help us, but Ying Guozhu said this, it seemed as if he had some conspiracy. This would make Yao Han feel very upset."

……

Li Qing stood on the top of the platform, his posture upright, as unshakable as a mountain. Even though the waves of doubt surrounding him were as surging as the tide, they could not shake him at all.

His eyes were deep, revealing his confidence in what he was about to say.

This carefully planned layout, every link and every connection, is the result of his careful consideration and repeated deductions.

To him, those potential loopholes were nothing more than variables and tests that had already been preset in the plan.

However, things are unpredictable. What he had not expected was that Ying Guozhu, with his unique insights and keen perception, would be able to see the subtleties of the plan so quickly and analyze them one by one, revealing some flaws in the seemingly flawless plan.

But Li Qing was not panicked. Since he knew there were loopholes, he certainly had a plan to deal with it.

He raised his hand slightly, his movement revealing an indescribable majesty that instantly attracted everyone's attention.

When the surroundings gradually fell silent, leaving only the faint sound of the breeze blowing against clothes, Li Qing slowly opened his mouth. His voice was steady and powerful, penetrating the hearts of everyone present.

"What the Eagle State Pillar is worried about is understandable. I naturally dare not underestimate it in the slightest."

His voice was gentle, with a hint of respect in his words. He did not show any anger or shame after his conspiracy was exposed. With his handsome face and upright posture, he had an extraordinary bearing.

Just by relying on this kind of bearing, some of the surrounding female demons were dazzled.

Li Qing paused for a moment and continued, "Regarding the idea of ​​the Ascendants seeking assistance from the demon clan's major forces, I think its feasibility is extremely low."

"The spirit world is vast and boundless, and the demon clan's forces are intertwined and intertwined. The grievances and entanglements are complicated. If the ascenders do not have a deep background and extraordinary wisdom, it will be difficult for them to distinguish right from wrong in this complex world, let alone find truly reliable allies."

"Besides, although the demon race is strong, they are not without desires or demands."

"In the spiritual world where the strong prey on the weak, any helping hand may hide unknown transactions and calculations."

"Just imagine, when an ignorant demon who has just ascended to heaven and has no background appears in front of the demon forces with a sincere face and asks for help, who can guarantee that they will agree?"

"After all, it takes a lot to build a brand new ascension platform from scratch."

"The best outcome is being rejected, and the worst outcome is being controlled by this force and becoming their cannon fodder in their fight against the demons!"
