Li Chengfeng's face was filled with a warm smile as he slowly said, "If you are willing to try, then we have a deal.
Moreover, my Book of Curses can first absorb your power of curses, allowing you to witness its magic firsthand."
Deng Bu waved his hand, and instantly, countless forces of curses erupted from his body like a tidal wave, churning and surging in the air.
"Did you see that? These forces of curses have already become one with me.
The accumulated pain of these past hundred thousand years has reached such a massive extent, like a rushing flood suddenly unleashed, surging and unstoppable."
Upon seeing this power of curses, the Fallen Child grinned from ear to ear and immediately flew out excitedly, as it was a loyal devotee of this power.
He swallowed mouthful after mouthful, as if a hungry person had encountered a delicacy, and soon his belly was round.
But even so, he still felt somewhat unsatisfied, because at this moment, the power of the Book of Sins had not fully recovered.
The Fallen Child looked at Li Chengfeng with pleading eyes and said with a face full of apology, "Master, I can't do it anymore, I'm really sorry."
Li Chengfeng laughed loudly upon seeing this, "It's okay, it's okay, as long as you can devour and absorb a portion, there's no problem.
It seems that, as I thought, this Book of Sins can indeed absorb and transform your power of curses."
At this time, the Shadow King Deng Bu, who had been waiting impatiently on the side, urged, "Fellow Daoist, stop beating around the bush, how exactly can you solve our curse problem?"
Li Chengfeng smiled slightly, his gaze deep as he looked towards this world, and slowly said, "Well, let's be frank...
From my observation of your world, although it is called the Netherworld, it is not actually so.
It is actually condensed from a certain treasure, am I right?"
Upon hearing this, a trace of surprise flashed in the Shadow King Deng Bu's eyes, and he nodded, "Fellow Daoist is indeed insightful, and only you can see so clearly.
That's right, this is our Shadow Clan's warship from back then, a supreme spiritual treasure.
We relied on it to travel through time and space and escape the punishment of the Heavenly Dao to arrive here.
Later, we suffered a curse, and the warship shattered.
Helpless, I could only gather the power of all the Shadow Clan members to refine it into its current appearance.
Then, we connected it to the Yanhuang Realm to absorb energy in order to survive."
Li Chengfeng's eyes were bright, like torches burning in his heart, and his words revealed an undeniable firmness, "In fact, this kind of approach is not a long-term solution.
As time goes by, not only will it not allow its spirituality to last forever, but it will gradually wear away.
The day-to-day and year-to-year maintenance is also a drop in the bucket, unable to maintain its true vitality.
Furthermore, its connection to the Yanhuang Realm also subjects it to the same unresolvable curse.
In addition, the Yanhuang Realm hides unspeakable secrets, and the combination of various factors has weakened it to this point.
I believe that in addition to the curse of your Shadow Clan, there must be other more hidden methods at work in the dark.
Otherwise, how could it have fallen into such a desolate state?
Am I even half wrong in what I said?"
Upon hearing these words, the Shadow Clan King Deng Bu's body trembled slightly, and a trace of undisguised astonishment appeared on his slightly aged face.
He nodded slowly, a complex light flashing in his eyes, as if at this moment...
A storm was brewing in his heart: "I, Deng Bu, have spent a hundred thousand years painstakingly comprehending and deducing, but I have only scratched the surface.
Yet Fellow Daoist can see the crux of the matter at a glance, truly an extraordinary person, awe-inspiring.
Fellow Daoist is absolutely right, I have also noticed that, in addition to our clan's curse, there are at least two other powerful forces,
quietly inflicting heavy blows on this world, and their methods are quite similar to our curse.
Obviously, the other party does not want to reveal their identity, otherwise, there would be no need to act so secretly.
However, there is a force of unfathomable power that is contending with these two forces, which is why the Yanhuang World has been spared from complete destruction.
It is because of the protection of this force that the cultivators and humans of the Yanhuang Realm can cultivate, forming a unique small cycle.
Although they cannot touch the distant Spirit Realm, they can still be self-sufficient in this world, reaching up to the Half-Step God Transformation Realm.
Such strength is already shocking to the world, and I am afraid that no one else could have done it."
Li Chengfeng nodded slightly, his eyes flashing with wise light.
He slowly said, "Indeed, it is already commendable that the Human Realm Yanhuang Realm can have the scene it has today.
If that great power had not emerged out of nowhere and turned the tide, this world would probably have long been reduced to ruins, with its creatures suffering and no longer existing.
The ancient demon corpse is actually a carefully arranged chess piece, and the other party deliberately threw it into the Yanhuang Realm, intending to attract attention from all sides and divert attention.
In my opinion, the shadow of the Dragon Saint must be behind this, otherwise, how could the place where the ancient demon fell have landed so coincidentally in the Yanhuang Realm?"
Both of them were extremely intelligent, and after a conversation, many mysteries were suddenly cleared up, and Li Chengfeng's understanding of the Yanhuang Realm became even deeper, and his belief in cultivating the Myriad Laws into One became even more firm.
Deng Bu was also a keen-minded person, and he naturally understood the deep meaning in Li Chengfeng's words.
He nodded slightly, and said with a solemn expression, "Fellow Daoist, there is no need to be discreet, just say it.
As long as it is within my power, I will definitely go all out and cooperate to the end.
The suffering we have endured in this world is beyond words.
After merging with the Yanhuang Realm, not only has the power of the curse not diminished, but it has become even heavier, as if it wants to completely devour us.
The strength of that great power is beyond imagination.
What kind of means did he use to put us in this self-imposed situation? To this day, it is still shrouded in mystery.
The Shadow Clan is like an ant in front of him, vulnerable to a single blow.
Perhaps, he deliberately left us behind to let us struggle in this endless suffering and be tortured."
Li Chengfeng nodded slightly, his expression calm, and said bluntly, "Let's be frank, I do intend to use you to fight for me.
But please rest assured that when the time comes, I will definitely give you the benefits you deserve, so that you can also obtain the resources you need.
As for your power of curses, I have my own way to deal with it.
I will start building a curse altar to slowly devour, absorb, and refine your power of curses, making it a part of my power.
In this way, we each get what we need, wouldn't that be wonderful?
If you are willing to cooperate, we will work together; if you are not willing, I will not force you, I will just turn around and leave."
Upon hearing this, Deng Bu smiled wryly and shook his head gently.
He said, "Fellow Daoist is truly straightforward, but Deng Bu is not a fool.
If I don't agree to cooperate, would Fellow Daoist leave so easily?
As a person of the Yanhuang Realm, you should naturally think of the Yanhuang Realm, and Deng Bu understands this clearly.
Forget it, I agree with you.
Following you, we may be able to find a glimmer of hope; if we don't agree, I'm afraid we can only walk from death to another death in this endless darkness.
There is no fun in life.
Fellow Daoist is willing to lend a helping hand, and Deng Bu is naturally grateful.
Please also tell me, Fellow Daoist, what are your plans?"
After saying that, Deng Bu slowly stood up and bowed deeply to Li Chengfeng, his expression respectful and devout, as if at this moment...
he had placed all his hope on this strong man from the Yanhuang Realm.
