So, the thing the Centaurs of the Xie Li Tribe fear the most is being reincarnated as a horse instead of a centaur in their next life.
However, the Chiyan Tribe is not worried about this at all. Even though in their tribe, two-thirds of the offspring born are also horses, they believe it’s because they are half-horse themselves, so giving birth to normal warhorses is entirely normal. Their souls are still sea-dwelling human-faced beasts, and they will be centaurs for generations, so there is no need to worry.
One believes horses ca first, then humans. Therefore, they fear becoming horses.
The other believes humans ca first, then horses. Thus, they have a completely opposite perspective.
Lanling said, "If I want the Chiyan Tribe to believe that I am their Sea Demon Fire God, what do I need to do?"
He didn’t speak of changing the Chiyan Tribe’s beliefs, as that is impossible, given that their belief system has persisted for thousands, if not tens of thousands, of years.
The Mirror Demon King said, "First, turn a sea-dwelling human-faced beast into a centaur."
Lanling replied, "That’s impossible!"
"Indeed, it’s impossible!" said the Mirror Demon King. "Because perhaps there are no sea-dwelling human-faced beasts at all; they might just be a fabrication. All centaurs transford from powerful wild horses with strong Demon Blood."
The Mirror Demon King continued, "Second, boil away the sea!"
"Damn..." Lanling exclaid.
The first plan is impossible, and the second is akin to an idiot’s daydream.
The Mirror Demon King said, "To beco their Sea Demon Fire God, you must achieve these two miracles; there is no third option."
It was precisely because these two miracles were so audacious that Lanling chose the Xie Li Tribe instead of the equally powerful Chiyan Tribe at the ti.
"So, does that an it’s impossible to conquer the Chiyan Tribe and that combat is the only option?" Lanling asked.
"Not necessarily..." the Mirror Demon King said with a wicked smile.
"What is the way?" Lanling asked.
The Mirror Demon King said, "Because Chiyan centaurs worship the Sea Demon Fire God and believe their holand lies beneath the sea, they are very close to the ocean. Thus, they chose to settle near an inland sea lake."
"Chi Yan Sea?" Lanling asked.
The Chi Yan Sea is right next to the Chiyan Tribe, a typical inland sea lake with a diater of about a hundred miles.
The water in the Chi Yan Sea indeed resembles seawater, probably connected to the East Sea through an underground water system.
The Mirror Demon King said, "You only need to boil away the water of the Chi Yan Sea to shock the entire Chiyan Tribe and make them regard you as a god."
Lanling was speechless!
Boiling away the hundred-mile-diater water of the Chi Yan Sea is still a ludicrous fantasy.
If he had such an ability, he would directly destroy Nai Shu and Black Demon Flag’s army; there would be no need to fool the Chiyan Tribe.
The Mirror Demon King said, "In fact, it’s possible to boil away the Chi Yan Sea’s water."
Lanling was stunned. How could this be possible? This already involves world-shaking abilities of collapsing mountains and filling seas.
The Mirror Demon King explained, "Beneath the hundred-mile Chi Yan Sea is a massive volcano, which is currently dormant. The giant pit of the Chi Yan Sea was ford when the volcano erupted long ago, and during that eruption, massive earthquakes tore the land apart, allowing the waters of the East Sea to pour into this pit, forming the Chi Yan Sea."
So that’s how it is!
The Mirror Demon King said, "You just need to awaken the huge volcano beneath the Chi Yan Sea to boil away its waters. When the earth-shattering volcanic eruption occurs, and the entire Chi Yan Sea vanishes instantly, it will definitely shock every centaur in the Chiyan Tribe and make them see you as the Sea Demon Fire God!"
That is certain.
This is completely a power of heaven and earth, a capability only a god would have, and it can definitely conquer the Chiyan Tribe instantly.
By then, not only will the Xie Li Tribe’s crisis be resolved smoothly, but the Chiyan Tribe will also be subdued, and your Centaur Army would increase by a few thousand or ten thousand more.
By then, the Centaur Army under Lanling’s command might exceed twenty thousand.
This combat power is truly against the heavens.
With a Centaur Army of twenty thousand, Lanling would be fully confident to battle the Black Demon Flag’s million-strong army!
Lanling asked, "How do you boil away the Chi Yan Sea?"
The Mirror Demon King said, "The Demon Fla Relic!"
"The Demon Fla Relic?" Lanling imdiately thought of the Dragonfla Ruins!
Back then, he obtained the Dragonfla Crystal in the Bloody Shore Lost City.
This was a fla once breathed by a dragon, which beca a crystal yet still retained unparalleled power of moving mountains and filling seas.
This Dragonfla Crystal beca the energy source for the Bloody Shore Lost City, a gacity with a population of millions, providing energy for thousands of years.
Eventually, the Dragonfla Crystal’s energy was about to be exhausted when the Demon Army invaded and destroyed this ancient human gacity.
By the ti Lanling entered the Bloody Shore Lost City, the city had been destroyed for tens of thousands of years. The energy of the Dragonfla Crystal was less than one ten-thousandth of its original capacity.
But even less than one ten-thousandth of its energy was enough to boil the entire Blood Sea, condensing countless drops of Demon Blood and Dragon Blood into a few milliliters. Ultimately, this Golden Dragon Blood and Golden Demon Blood entered Lanling’s body and allowed him to be reborn.
The Dragonfla Crystal was so powerful; naturally, the Demonic Fla is not weak either. Triggering a dormant volcano is certainly within its capabilities.
"Where is this Demon Fla Relic?" Lanling asked.
"In the ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Demon City!" the Mirror Demon King replied, "It is three thousand nine hundred miles from Rakshasa City, and two thousand one hundred miles from the Fla Demon Tribe. I’ll mark the map in your mind."
A mont later, a clear map appeared in Lanling’s mind.
The Ancient Heavenly Demon City is located two thousand one hundred miles southwest of the Fla Demon Tribe. The surrounding area, a few hundred miles wide, is desolate, with only a massive snowy mountain ten thousand ters high.
"The Ancient Heavenly Demon City is within the belly of this snowy mountain," said the Mirror Demon King.
Lanling asked, "How did you know about this ruin of the Ancient Heavenly Demon City?"
The Mirror Demon King sighed, "Master, don’t forget, I’ve been in this world for tens of thousands of years."
Lanling asked, "And once I find the Demon Fla Relic?"
The Mirror Demon King said, "The energy of this Demon Fla Relic has been entirely exhausted, which is why the Ancient Heavenly Demon City died. You should receive a black crystal, icy to the touch. Once you obtain the Demon Fla Crystal, rush to the Chi Yan Sea’s bottom quickly, enter the volcano, and place the Demon Fla Crystal in the volcanic magma. The Demon Fla Crystal will then start absorbing fla energy frantically, and when it reaches the peak, it will burst explosively, thereby igniting this dormant volcano."
Chiyan Khan has said Lanling must reach the Xie Li Tribe to negotiate within five days, or he’ll slaughter the Xie Li Tribe.
In other words, within these five days, Lanling must enter the Ancient Heavenly Demon City ruins to find the Demon Fla Relic, then sneak under the Chi Yan Sea to place the Demon Fla Relic into the volcanic magma, and finally leave the Chi Yan Sea to et with Chiyan Khan at the Xie Li Tribe.
Ti is indeed extrely tight.
In these five days, he has to travel more than six or seven thousand miles.
Lanling asked, "How long does the Demon Fla Crystal need to absorb before it triggers the volcano?"
The Mirror Demon King said, "I don’t know, but... through countless calculations, it should be within ten to twenty days!"
Lanling was speechless; such a ti range is too broad.
In fact, the Mirror Demon King’s claim of ten to twenty days is purely an instinctive estimate and is utterly incalculable.
Its only source of confidence cos from Lanling; he is the Demon Emperor, so he should be able to handle everything, right?
However, this is indeed the only plan available at the mont.
Lanling opened his eyes.
The Xie Li Khan also opened his eyes and stood up.
"Xie Li, I will go to et Chiyen alone. I will save the Xie Li Tribe and prove that I am their god. I am the god of all centaurs. You can stay in the Fla Demon Tribe, suppress the Rakshasa Tribe captives, and resist any potential invaders!" Lanling said.
"As you command, my master," Xie Li Khan said.
He felt no unease; instead, he was filled with excitent. He was even more confident than Lanling, firmly believing he could conquer the Chiyan Tribe.
...
Yin Ji was working in her office, but her mind was in chaos, unable to calm down.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" Yin Ji asked.
"It’s ," Lanling replied.
Yin Ji’s heart raced, and instinctively she clutched her chest, saying, "It’s already late. I want to rest. Let’s talk tomorrow."
Lanling said, "I’m going on a long journey; there are so things I need to discuss with you."
Going on another long journey?
Yin Ji stepped forward and opened the door.
...
Note: The first part of four thousand words is presented, begging for support, thank you all!
