Chapter 102 Rejecting the Demon Race's Invitation! Saint-Level Grand Array Acquired!
Soon, Niu Ben emerged from the depths of his ancestral home.
At this moment, Niu Ba was waiting outside the ancestral land.
Niu Ben had previously instructed that no one should disturb him during his seclusion.
Niu Ba didn't trust anyone else to guard the ancestral land, so he stayed outside the ancestral land himself.
"My son has emerged from seclusion!"
Upon seeing Niu Ben, Niu Ba was extremely excited.
He quickly got up and went to greet them.
Upon approaching, he took a light sniff and could still smell the lingering fragrance of elixir emanating from Niu Ben.
"Ben'er".
"Is everything going smoothly?"
Niu Ba asked.
Niu Ben nodded and replied:
"Don't worry, Father!"
Then, Niu Ben changed the subject and asked:
"By the way, Father, during my seclusion, have any accidents occurred in the Bull Clan?"
It should be noted that in the previous battle, he suppressed the Purple Mansion army and defeated the Purple Mansion Quasi-Saint.
If this matter were to reach the Purple Palace, it would surely enrage the Eastern King Duke.
No one can say for sure whether the Purple Mansion will come to retaliate against the Bull Clan again.
Upon hearing Niu Ben's question, Niu Ba smiled slightly and said:
"The cattle tribe is doing well."
"My son previously displayed great power and utterly defeated the Purple Palace."
"The entire Bull Clan is now united, with unprecedented cohesion!"
Niu Ba was still excited when he recalled that battle.
Niu Ben nodded, but before he could say anything more, Niu Ba suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said:
"By the way, Ben'er."
"Not long after you went into seclusion, the demon god Fei Dan of the demon race came to our bull race again."
"We want to recruit you and the Bull Clan to join the Demon Clan."
"and……"
At this point, Niu Ba paused slightly, then added:
"And they even offered very good terms."
"They said if you agree, Ben'er, the demon race will acknowledge you as their third emperor!"
Niu Ben was taken aback by Niu Ba's words:
"Oh?"
"Such generous terms?"
"It seems the demon race has gone to great lengths to win me over!"
While he said this, Niu Ben knew exactly what was going on in his mind.
They knew that the demon race valued not him, but his identity.
He was the chief disciple of Taishang, the head of the Three Pure Ones.
If the demon race could win him over, wouldn't they be able to rely on the Three Pure Ones in the future?
You should know that the Three Pure Ones are the three great sages of the future!
"That demon race certainly has a clever plan!"
Just as Niu Ben was pondering, Niu Ba pursed his lips and asked probingly:
"Ben'er".
You should think this over carefully.
"Although the conditions offered by the demon race are extremely tempting, no one knows what they are really up to."
Upon hearing this, Niu Ben snapped out of his reverie and asked calmly:
"Father."
"Is the Demon God Feisheng still in my Bull Clan?"
Niu Ba nodded and hummed softly:
"It's still there."
"Upon learning that you were in seclusion, he has been waiting for you in our Bull Clan, saying he wants to discuss this with you in person when you emerge!"
Niu Ben glanced at his eyes, raised an eyebrow slightly, and said with a smile:
"Let's go, Father."
"Let's go and have a look at him!"
Niu Ben then went without delay and, together with Niu Ba, found the demon god Fei Dan.
Upon seeing Niu Ben emerge from the pass, the demon god Fei Dan was overjoyed.
"Fellow Daoist Niu Ben!"
"I've finally waited for you to come out of seclusion."
Fei Dan greeted him with a broad smile.
Niu Ben remained calm and replied:
"Fellow Daoist Feidan."
"Thank you for waiting outside for so long."
Fei Dan waved his hands repeatedly and said with a smile:
"It's alright!"
"I suppose Clan Chief Niu Ba has already informed Fellow Daoist Niu Ben of the purpose of my visit to the demon realm?"
"What do you think, my friend?"
Upon hearing this, Niu Ben paused for a moment, but did not rush to reply to Fei Dan.
Seeing this, Fei Dan hurriedly said:
"Fellow Daoist Niu Ben."
"If you are willing to lead the Bull Clan to join my Demon Clan's Heavenly Court."
"The demon race is willing to recognize you as their third emperor, on equal footing with the Demon Emperor and Demon King."
"From now on, your status and position in the demon race will be above all other demons."
"Moreover, the Bull Clan will also rise to become one of the top clans in the primordial world."
After listening to what the demon god Fei Dan said, Niu Ben remained unmoved, appearing thoughtful.
Just then, a system notification sounded in his mind:
【Ding! 】
[Congratulations, host, for triggering a god-level choice mission!]
[Option 1: It's good to take shelter under a big tree; it's good to grow with a strong backer. Join the demon race and become the third demon emperor.]
[Reward to be obtained: One top-grade innate spiritual treasure]
[Option Two: Relying on others is like drifting on water; only by becoming strong can one gain a foothold and refuse the demon race's invitation.]
[Reward: One Saint-level Grand Array (capable of blocking detection and attack by Saints).]
After hearing the system's notification, Niu Ben narrowed his eyes slightly, his thoughts racing.
"Join the demon race?"
"Do you think I'm stupid?"
"Besides, how can the demon race's backing compare to that of the Three Pure Ones?"
"A top-grade innate spiritual treasure? Innate spiritual treasures are the last thing I lack!"
Niu Ben muttered to himself, not giving the first option much thought.
"A Saint-level grand formation?"
"Can it hinder a sage's investigation and attack?"
Upon closer inspection, Niu Ben was deeply shocked.
"System, choose option two!"
He made his decision quickly, without the slightest regret.
【Ding! 】
Congratulations on your successful selection.
[Obtained a Saint-level Grand Array, "Primordial Chaos Array"!]
With the system's prompts, information about setting up the "Primordial Chaos Array" flooded into Niu Ben's mind.
"Um?"
Upon receiving the information about setting up the grand formation, Niu Ben was startled.
Unexpectedly, to set up a complete "Primordial Limitless Array", one needs at least the cultivation level of a Quasi-Saint.
In addition, a large amount of rare materials and three innate spiritual treasures must be prepared as the core of the formation.
"Setting up the Primordial Chaos Array isn't easy!"
"Although my cultivation level has not yet broken through to the Quasi-Saint level, I can still set up a simplified version of the Primordial Chaos Array."
"It cannot completely block the detection and attacks of saints, but it can block quasi-saints."
Just as Niu Ben was lost in thought.
The demon god Fei Dan, who was standing nearby, could no longer contain himself and called out in a low voice:
"Fellow Daoist Niu Ben?"
Upon hearing this, Niu Ben snapped out of his reverie and smiled faintly:
"Fellow Daoist Feidan, I am truly sorry."
"I have my own ways of doing things, so I won't join the demon race."
"but……"
At this point, Niu Ben paused slightly before continuing:
"However, I will be traveling to the demon realm to discuss important matters with your Demon Emperor!"
Upon hearing Niu Ben's reply, a hint of disappointment flashed in Fei Dan's eyes.
I originally thought that Niu Ben wouldn't refuse such generous terms offered by the demon race.
To everyone's surprise, Niu Ben still refused.
If it were anyone else, Fei Dan would naturally think that the other party was ungrateful.
But Niu Ben was the chief disciple of the Three Pure Ones.
If someone has a special status or position, even if they refuse, he will only consider it reasonable.
Moreover, this means that Niu Ben and the Niu Clan cannot be forced to join the Demon Clan.
After a slight pause, Fei Dan nodded and said:
"In that case, I'll return to the demon realm to report to the Demon Emperor!"
"Fellow Daoist Niu Ben, until we meet again!"
Having said that, Fei Dan didn't linger and leaped away.
