Max level Divinity: Summon Eastern Gods at the start of the game

"Of course, I must remind you that if you forfeit this match, it will be considered a forfeit, the West will win, and the Heavenly Gate will be permanently open to the West."

Hearing the Valkyrie's words, Su Ming felt tormented once again.

Why should I have to choose?

As a summoner of the Dragon Kingdom, he carries the mission of hundreds of millions of people.

But whether Li Bai was willing to come down or not, he was doing evil.

The evil directed at Li Bai alone.

He had already chosen the Monkey King once, and fate smiled upon him.

Monkey King did not die in battle.

But this time, there was no trace of fate at all; it was all desolate and bleak.

"Summon it quickly, please, don't delay any longer."

"Kindness is the greatest taboo for a summoner. Great summoner, you must not let kindness cloud your judgment."

"Perhaps for the poet Li Bai, this was the highest honor..."

These sounds reached Su Ming's ears; they were nothing more than their desperate cries for survival, their faces quite ugly.

Despite his reluctance, he truly had no third option.

Giving up is tantamount to destruction.

100% destruction.

"It's so hard to choose, so incredibly hard to choose!" Su Ming roared inwardly.

Finally, he pressed his fingerprint.

I'm sorry...

Brother Bai…

In an instant, a powerful mental force shot straight into the sky and crashed into the Heavenly Gate.

The beam of psychic energy finally landed in a city in the mythical world, a city of unparalleled prosperity.

Chang'an City.

"Hmm, there's a demonic aura?" A young man in white, with a reed leaf in his mouth, leaped and chased after the palace.

Finally, they stopped an eight-legged beast at the city gate outside the palace.

"You wrathful beast, now that you've met me, the Azure Lotus Hermit, where do you think you're going?"

Wherever his fingertips touched, streaks of sword energy fell from the city gate, forming a powerful sword array that trapped the eight-legged beast.

"Collect!" Li Bai pointed into the air and collected the wrathful beast into the gourd.

More and more people gathered around, seeing that someone was catching a demon.

"Look everyone, it's Li Bai, the Sword Immortal, the number one sword immortal in Chang'an! This is the first time I've ever seen him..."

"You are so young and promising."

The girl next to him added, "Grandpa, please don't use 'young and promising' to praise people anymore. It's too complicated. Just say 'handsome,' it's so much more convenient."

Li Bai had too many female admirers, so he didn't want to linger.

He leaped into the imperial city in just a few steps.

Unexpectedly, a beam of azure light descended from the sky the next second, but fortunately Li Bai reacted quickly and blocked it with his sword.

"What kind of demon dares to ambush me, Li Bai!"

On the altar, Su Ming looked relieved; he had finally made contact.

Li Bai's movements were so graceful that it was difficult to pinpoint his location with divine sense.

If we miss this opportunity, it will probably be difficult to communicate with them again.

Su Ming cleared his throat and began his first conversation with Li Bai.

"Junior Su Ming, with utmost humility, pays respects to the Hermit of Qinglian, the Sword Immortal of Taibai, the only banished immortal in the world."

As the sound rang out, the Mythical Arena and Su Ming appeared before Li Bai's eyes.

Li Bai couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Is this another world? Are you from another world?"

But none of that matters.

Since you know my identity so well, why did you eat up my proud achievements as a poet?

Li Bai didn't waste any words and calmly asked, "Do you need something from me?"

Su Ming paused for half a second, then finally nodded: "Yes."

"Haha, there are many people in the world who need my help, but why should I help you?"

When asked this question, one can only resort to invoking the common people.

"Senior Sword Immortal, the descendants of countless Chinese people need you to slay a powerful Western god. Of course, you don't absolutely have to go, but we might..."

"You'll die, right?"

Li Bai laughed, "What do the common people of the world have to do with this layman?"

Su Ming's heart sank.

What puzzled him was, "What you just did was exactly what you did to vanquish demons and rid the people of harm, wasn't it?"

Li Bai seemed quite interested in Su Ming, this uninvited guest.

He shook the wine gourd and said, "Who said that I, Li Bai, slay demons for the sake of all living beings? Look, wine made from demons is the finest wine in the world."

"As the saying goes, 'A pot of wine among the flowers, I get drunk alone without a companion; how delightful!'"

"Oh right, do you have any wine? Wine makes things easier, maybe I'll agree to it if I'm in a good mood?"
