Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

For a country, sovereignty is more than territory.

National treasures are also part of sovereignty.

No country is willing to hand over its national treasure to an outsider.

Even if it only has symbolic meaning.

These are the Kusanagi Sword, the Eight-foot Magatama and the Eight-tatami Mirror.

Enshrined in the imperial palace of Japan.

serves no practical purpose.

But for everyone, even the royal family is supreme.

But it’s not absolutely impossible to pay.

If they can avoid a turmoil or a disaster.

Those in power are still willing to pay.

No matter which country or government it is, there are absolutely rational people.

For example, Chen Zhao is a rational person.

If his family is threatened, Chen Zhao is of course willing to give everything.

The same is true for the Japanese government.

Some people are against it, and some are in favor of it.

And more people are in favor.

Of course, very few people know about this kind of transaction.

Only the Prime Minister and the royal family know.

Their deal with Zhang Tianyi actually came with additional conditions.

That means Zhang Tianyi, the Longhushan Celestial Master Sect, and the Chinese government cannot publicize this matter.

And they took a fake and placed it in the palace.

As for fooling Zhang Tianyi with fake goods.

They didn't think fakes could fool Zhang Tianyi.

A week later, a metal box was delivered to Chen Zhao after several rounds of transportation.

When Chen Zhao opened the box, a jasper-colored magatama floated up.

Chen Zhao stretched out his hand to pinch the magatama and looked at it carefully.

"Is this the eight-foot magatama?"

If you just look at the surface, this is an ancient jade that has lost its luster.

And the shape is completely different from the jade carving form that Chinese people like.

There is also a hole at one end of the magatama.

Someone once used this magatama as a pendant.

So I went through this hole.

When Chen Zhao held this magatama, he felt even more.

This damn thing is just an inner elixir, okay?

And more than that, this is not the demon elixir like Lao Turtle.

But the inner elixir of the god is exactly the same as Chen Zhao's inner elixir.

The most critical point is that this inner elixir is also an inner elixir without attributes.

Chen Zhao couldn't help but doubt that the supreme god of Japan was also a god without attributes.

Chen Zhao held the magatama and remained silent for a long time.

Zhang Tianyi sat opposite Chen Zhao, also silent.

"Mr. Chen, did you discover something?"

Chen Zhao looked up at Zhang Tianyi: "What about you?"

"I discovered something unusual about this magatama, but I can't explain it."

Suddenly, Chen Zhao grasped his hand and squeezed it very hard.

Zhang Tian raised his eyebrows, this magatama was not hard.

At least it was impossible to block Chen Zhao's huge power.

Chen Zhao was squeezing it like this, maybe he was going to crush magatama into powder, right?

This is a Japanese national treasure.

Even if you hate Japan, there is no need to be so greedy for natural resources.

In fact, Chen Zhao wanted to crush magatama into powder.

Chen Zhao was very sure that this was a relic of an ancient god.

If Chen Zhao were a monster, he could absorb it directly by swallowing the magatama.

But Chen Zhao is not a monster. Chen Zhao can only absorb magatama into his blood through the mouth of a glutton.

Chen Zhao originally thought that this magatama was just a symbol.

Maybe it was created by the rulers of a certain era to fool the people.

But now Chen Zhao knows.

This is really good stuff.

It's just that throughout the ages, no one really knows how to use it.

The real owner of this magatama is probably much stronger than Chen Zhao.

At least judging by the size of the magatama.

Chen Zhao's inner elixir is now no more than the size of a thumb.

The size of this magatama is at least three or four times that of Chen Zhao's inner elixir.

Chen Zhao is absorbing the immortal power.

The inner alchemy is also growing rapidly.

His cultivation has grown much faster than Chen Zhao's.

Soon, Chen Zhao's inner alchemy at least doubled in size.

Chen Zhao did not expect such an unexpected gain.

Because it is also an inner elixir without attributes.

So Chen Zhao didn't feel repelled at all, but felt a mutual attraction.

Chen Zhao's heart moved.

"Mr. Chen, are you worried that the Japanese government will retrieve it in the future, so you deliberately destroyed magatama?"

"That's right, Mr. Zhang, how about you act in a play with me?"

"Acting? Acting for what?"

"You are stealing by guarding," Chen Zhao said.

Zhang Tian understood Chen Zhao's intention in an instant.

Even if the Japanese government knows that Dongxi is taught by Tianshi in Longhu Mountain.

You may not be willing to put your national treasure in someone else’s home.

So one day, they may come and ask for it back.

Maybe this will happen after Zhang Tian's first deadline.

When the time comes, what will the Longhu Mountain Celestial Master teach you in return?

So if you want to completely solve the problem, you need to direct and act in a play yourself.

"Is there any way you can hide it from others?"

"As long as the 23rd generation Blood Mary doesn't talk nonsense, this matter will not be revealed." Chen Zhao said.

"She doesn't talk nonsense. She knows what to say and what not to say." Zhang Tianyi said confidently: "How do you plan to direct and act by yourself?"

"You return the things to Japan, and then I'll grab them."

"Are you sure this is reliable?"

"I have a method, which is to incarnate outside my body." Chen Zhao grinned: "I will never be exposed."

Zhang Tianyi raised his eyebrows and transformed into another person!

This is the legendary magic.

"Mr. Chen, I wonder which immortal sect it is the inheritance of?"

"Does your Longhu Mountain Celestial Master Sect have any interesting spells? Let's exchange them."

Chen Zhao didn't want an equal exchange, so why not do it if he could make Zhang Tianyi owe him a favor.

Of course, it’s impossible to give it away for free.

"There are no spells comparable to this external incarnation, but our Longhu Mountain Celestial Master Sect still has many interesting spells, such as the Divine Strike."

"Is it the legendary invitation to the gods?" Chen Zhao asked curiously.

"Inviting the gods is a trick of the charlatan, where the spirit, energy and spirit are combined into one. It looks like you are possessed by the gods, but in fact it is just a bit more resistant to beatings." Zhang Tianyi seemed a little disdainful of this method, and then said: "The magic attack taught by our Longhu Mountain Celestial Master is to temper the body with extraterrestrial power. In scientific terms, it is to transform the physical body by absorbing cosmic rays."

"How effective will this be?"

"When the country launched manned rockets, I followed them up there. After staying there for more than ten days, my physical body strengthened several times."

"You have to go to outer space to practice?"

"Cosmic rays are blocked by the atmosphere. Practicing Divine Strike on the ground for more than ten years may not be as effective as the ten days I spent up there."

When Chen Zhao heard about this magic, he liked it very much.

He felt that this spell was tailor-made for him.

Although I have never been to outer space, I can reach high altitudes.

At an altitude of tens of thousands of meters, the air is thin and the barrier to cosmic rays is not that strong.
