The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

However, at this moment, Li Qing suddenly changed the subject and said, "However, I have a method that can allow you to cross the power of the void and ascend to the spirit world. I just wonder if you are willing to use this method?"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a sudden silence in the audience.

There was a hint of confusion and doubt in everyone's eyes, and they didn't know what the method Li Qing was talking about was.

But no matter what, they were unwilling to give up this rare opportunity.

"Yes! Of course we are willing!" A human cultivator shouted first, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

Others responded, expressing their willingness to try any method to realize their wish to ascend to the spiritual world.

Among them, Meng Yu, who was standing at the front, bowed and said, "I beg you to teach us the method. Even if it is difficult, we are willing to do it!"

"Okay, then I will tell you." Li Qing said immediately, "This method is actually very simple. It is to use the soul contract and rely on the soul power of this seat in the contract to let you cross the void and ascend to the spirit world."

"However, you should know the power of the Soul Contract. The life and death of the person who is contracted will be controlled by me in the future. So, I wonder if you are still willing to do this?"

As soon as the words fell, the humans and demons below the platform were all stunned. They did not expect that the method Li Qing mentioned was so extreme, yet so simple and useful.

However, this method would require sacrificing their freedom and having their life and death controlled by others, which made them hesitant.

However, they soon made a decision in their minds, which was to agree with Li Qing's method.

After all, they are now working under the Lord of the Shadow Tower, and life and death are ultimately under his control.

Even if they don't agree now, they will still be trapped in the demon world in the future and slowly die of old age.

Why don’t they continue to follow the Lord of the Ghost Shadow Tower? Maybe in the future, if one of them becomes successful, the whole family will benefit from it, and they can also benefit from the Lord of the Ghost Shadow Tower, and their cultivation may be able to reach a higher level in the future.

Li Qing's eyes were deep and calm, as if he could see through the deepest desires and struggles in people's hearts.

Although his words were light, they were like the morning bell and evening drum, stirring up ripples in the hearts of everyone present. He continued slowly, "The path to ascension has been a way to defy fate since ancient times. Only those with great perseverance and wisdom can achieve it."

"I know what you are thinking. You desire power but fear being bound. But you must remember that everything in the world has its price."

"Although the method I propose may seem harsh, it is actually your only chance."

"Through the soul contract, you will share the same fate with me and advance and retreat together."

"My power will serve as a shield for you to cross the void, protecting you from the erosion of the void force. And this power will also be the foundation for your foothold in the spirit world."

Li Qing's words were filled with unquestionable determination. He looked around and saw that everyone was hesitant, so he added:

"Of course, I'm not a heartless person."

"Under the contract, I promise that as long as you are loyal and diligent in your practice, if you achieve something in the future, I will help you break free from the contract and gain true freedom and power."

"During this period, you will have the opportunity to come into contact with more advanced techniques and a wider world. Isn't this an unprecedented opportunity for you?"

These words were like a warm current, slowly seeping into everyone's heart.

They begin to realize that this may really be their only way to escape their current situation and pursue a higher level.

The demon and human cultivators looked at each other, with complex emotions flashing in their eyes - there was both longing for the future and fear of the unknown, but in the end, the desire for power and the persistence in survival prevailed.

Meng Yu was the first to stand up, his voice firm and powerful: "Master, you are so kind, we will never forget it!"

"No matter what the road ahead holds, we are willing to follow the OP, go to the spirit world together, and create our own glory!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd was excited, and the cultivators of both the human and demon races responded one after another. They either knelt or swore an oath, expressing their loyalty to Li Qing and their expectations for the future.

Seeing this, Li Qing curled up the corner of his mouth into a faint smile. He knew that at this moment, he had successfully brought the hearts of these monks together.

"Okay! In that case, I will begin arranging the contract ceremony."

"Remember, the decision you make today will determine your future destiny."

"Follow me and go to the legendary spirit world, where you can live forever!"

As Li Qing finished speaking, a contract ceremony slowly began.

……

A month later, as the space channel between the two worlds became completely stabilized, an unprecedented tense atmosphere enveloped the entire demon world.

This is not just a connection of space, but also a prelude to the intertwining destinies of two worlds.

On this decisive day, the sky of the demon world seemed to be shrouded in a thick haze, with dark clouds covering the sky and no sunlight visible.

Suddenly, ripples appeared in the sky, and dark cracks appeared like the eye of the abyss. What poured down from them was not ordinary rain, but densely packed demons emitting an evil aura.

They have various shapes, some are as huge as behemoths, some are as small as mosquitoes, but all of them carry the power of destruction, like black raindrops, mercilessly falling on every inch of land in the demon world, destroying all life wherever they go.

Faced with this sudden disaster, the creatures in the demon world did not choose to escape, but stepped forward one after another and fought a desperate battle with these demons in order to protect their homes and for the right to survive.

In the woods, on mountain tops, and beside rivers, one can see demon warriors fighting fiercely with demons everywhere. Their roars and growls intertwined together, forming the most tragic and heroic music in the demon world.

However, the abilities of the demons were beyond imagination. Not only were they powerful, they were also adept at using all kinds of weird and unpredictable magical powers, causing the demon clan to suffer repeated setbacks in battle, resulting in heavy casualties, and many forces and clans were almost completely destroyed.

The sky of the demon world was shrouded in an atmosphere of despair, as if the entire world was plunged into endless darkness.

But in this desperate moment, the Tianyu Demon Dynasty was like a ray of light in the darkness, illuminating the way forward for the demon world.

With supreme majesty and determination, the Demon Emperor Tianyu personally led his demon soldiers and forces from all sides to launch a counterattack against the Heavenly Demon.

Relying on their desire for freedom and victory, and the power of unity, they finally tore a hole in the demonic tide and temporarily repelled this evil force.

However, the joy of victory did not last long, because everyone knew that this was just the beginning.

According to the characteristics of the channel between the two worlds, the invasion of the demons will last for ten years, and each retreat is only a preparation for the next more fierce attack.

The road ahead is still long and the challenges will be even greater.

Faced with an unknown fate and impending crisis, the creatures in the demon world did not choose to give up.

They began to unite more closely, practicing together and improving their strength.
