Chapter 726: Agreement
Jingjing, or should I say, a glint of light flashed in the eyes of the true Crystal Great Demon Emperor, "You are indeed formidable. That's right, exactly so."
Tang San nodded and said, "Then I know what you are feeling. I think, as a basis for our cooperation, this should be enough. Our goal is the same."
However, Jingjing shook her head, "I was willing to work with you originally. But, during the recent period, as I have been following you and witnessing the various changes occurring on you, I've become somewhat afraid to cooperate with you. You are too powerful, beyond my imagination. When you tell your little girlfriend that you were once the Godking, perhaps she does not fully believe it, but I do. Otherwise, there is no way to explain the various abilities you have, as well as that super divine weapon that even I find terrifying. You must be an entity that came from the Divine Realm, and the possibility that you are the Godking is nearly a hundred percent. If you truly regain your cultivation base, wouldn't that be inviting the wolf into the house? Wouldn't you be even more terrifying than that fellow? After all, he is just striving in that direction, exploiting the public for personal gain, but you are different. If you truly recover your state, could you completely destroy our plane of existence? I cannot be certain. So, how can you expect me to dare cooperate with you?"
Tang San's eyes narrowed slightly, "After standing at the peak of this world, are you able to feel some of the will of this plane?"
Jingjing did not expect Tang San to shift the topic suddenly at this time, but still nodded subconsciously and said in a deep voice, "Yes, I can feel something of it."
Tang San nodded slightly, "I see. The closer you are to the limit of this plane, the more you can feel the true essence of the plane, which is not far from my judgment. Therefore, you really don't need to worry about what you just mentioned. Because if I cannot even resolve this issue, do you think this plane will allow me to regain my state? Simply put, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Destruction and Oblivion Heavenly Lightning is fundamentally an insurmountable tribulation, a tribulation that I have only heard of. It is something that only appears when almost the entire plane's power converges to completely destroy. So, if I cannot gain the recognition of the plane, then I won't have even a slim chance of survival, but if I can get the recognition of the plane, it means that the plane doesn't want to destroy me. Do you understand my meaning?"
With some surprise, the Crystal Great Demon Emperor said, "Are you suggesting that the plane will acknowledge you becoming a God?"
Tang San nodded and said, "If I can truly become a God in this plane, then it must be the result of the plane's acknowledgement, no other possibility exists. My current cultivation base is very strong among my peers, but compared to the plane itself, I am nothing but an ant, easy to crush."
The Crystal Great Demon Emperor frowned and said, "But I can't think of any reason why the plane would allow you to break through and become a God."
Tang San countered, "Since you can't think of one, why do you keep following me? If I fail the tribulation, wouldn't you also be annihilated with me?"
The Crystal Great Demon Emperor gave a bitter smile, "That's why I am actually more anxious than you. Who made me board a thief's ship? Before becoming a God, my breath has become closely linked with yours due to you, merging into your Dantian, allowing me to absorb your power of origin to aid my growth, and also using your Field of Fortune and Misfortune to completely hide the changes in my rebirth's luck, preventing the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox from sensing it. However, I can't break free from you, only after becoming a God can I be independent. So I had planned to attempt the tribulation with you when you face yours, hoping to take advantage of you withstanding most of the lightning tribulation to become a God and leave on my own. This is definitely very risky, especially after seeing the extent of your little girlfriend's tribulation, I understood that my chances of success are even slimmer because the lightning tribulation you face will definitely be much stronger than hers. But now, I have no other choice, I have made my choice, so I must take the risk. But now that you have seen through everything, do you have a way to successfully pass the tribulation?"
Tang San said, "No one can claim a hundred percent certainty in anything, but if you are willing to cooperate with me, at least it can increase my chances of success by more than thirty percent."

Taking a deep breath, the Crystal Great Demon Emperor said, "If the plane can recognize you during your tribulation, giving you a sliver of hope, of course, I am willing to work with you because that means you only bring benefits and no harm to the plane. Otherwise, you are doomed without a doubt."
Tang San nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I'm not afraid to tell you the significance of my arrival in this plane. I was once a First-Generation Godking in the Divine Realm, and my plane is doing very well now. If it weren't for extraordinary circumstances, why would I reincarnate and come here? It's because my wife encountered a problem, she fell, and was reborn in this plane. That's why I came looking. With the memories of my former life. Now, I have found her, so my ultimate goal is to leave with her and return to our previous world, to our family and companions. Hence, I have no interest in destroying or swallowing up this plane; in fact, I am even willing to help it. That is the basis for our cooperation."
The Crystal Great Demon Emperor looked deeply into his eyes and asked, "Is it that little girlfriend of yours?"
Tang San nodded and openly said, "Yes, she is my everything. Therefore, I must become a God to properly protect her, so that in the future, I can take her with me when we leave."
The Crystal Great Demon Emperor took a deep breath and asked, "What do you need me to cooperate with?"
Tang San answered, "There are mainly two things I need you to help with. Rest assured, neither is about facing the lightning tribulation for me. The tribulation that is mine to bear should naturally be faced by me alone. Moreover, I believe that when you accompany me through the tribulation, the benefits you receive will be much greater than what your predecessor gained when becoming a God back then."
"Tell me," said the Crystal Great Demon Emperor, nodding. She had complete faith in Tang San's words. All this time, she'd been following Tang San, feeling the super bloodline he created, and had witnessed firsthand the process of Tang San helping Pretty Girl through her tribulation. It was during the time Tang San was intimidating the Sea Clan that she felt for the first time the terror of the Destruction and Oblivion Heavenly Lightning of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Otherwise, she would not have chosen to come out at this time. She truly knew that what Tang San said was right, that it was nearly impossible to transcend the Destruction and Oblivion Heavenly Lightning of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. If it weren't for Tang San now telling her there was a glimmer of hope, she might have already been feeling somewhat despairing.
Tang San said, "The first thing you need to help me with is to go to the Ancestral Court Council during the key moment of the second trial of Pretty Girl's assessment, to cast an affirmative vote to help her pass."
The Crystal Great Demon Emperor turned to look at the clone, nodded and said, "When the time comes, you should go and do not be stingy with your presence. You must intimidate them. If I can successfully transcend the tribulation with him, then you will also be able to continue to exist independently. In twenty years at most, I can return to my previous peak state."
"Okay," the clone nodded.
Tang San continued, "As for the second thing, it is even more crucial. It concerns the success or failure of our tribulation, you will need..."
…
Pretty Girl, of course, had no idea what had transpired while Tang San was climbing the Crystal Sacred Mountain, but her second assessment as part of her official review had already been officially approved.
Facing the incredulous looks of all the Emperors, Pretty Girl's heart was filled with even more shock!
