Chapter 4196: Cooperate if you can’t beat them (1)
The descenders that followed Tang Zhen were now completely convinced.
They didn’t think they could pass through the two consecutive checkpoints with the powerful enemy.
However, after exchanging blows, he was torn into pieces by Tang Zhen as if he was breaking dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
Such powerful combat strength shocked the followers, and they completely recognized the gap between them.

Tang Zhen was a true Big Shot. They were merely small fish and shrimps. They were simply not on the same level.
He didn’t pay them any attention, but he didn’t want to make a move.
...
Once Tang Zhen was angered, he would unleash his lightning-like methods and instantly suppress and kill the people following him.
With this realization in his heart, he became more cautious in his actions. He followed behind obediently all the way, not daring to overstep his boundaries.
It was to avoid accidentally dying in Tang Zhen’s hands.
The cultivators who had followed him here were all people with great perseverance. They were not afraid of difficulties and dangers, and were prepared to die at any time.
Even if he died in the despair and needed to descend again to cultivate, he had to figure out the secrets hidden in the depths of the despair.
They kept getting to know more along the way, and after being intercepted twice, the followers became more and more excited.
Originally, he had only heard that there were many secrets hidden in the depths of the great despair, but there was no way to verify them.
There were also many rumors that said that it was impossible to enter the great despair and that exploring it was just a waste of time.
It was obvious that the rumors were wrong. The current interior of the great despair had been built like an iron bucket.
The news that was spread outside was most likely done on purpose to create a deceptive effect.
Thinking of this possibility, the stalker’s attitude became firmer. He had to get to the bottom of this.
After breaking through the second obstacle, the scenery in the desperate situation changed again.
The surroundings were no longer empty. Instead, there were patches of grass, as if there were islands of oases scattered in all directions.
The grass and trees were extremely verdant, with flowers of all colors blooming and long green vines dancing freely.
Even though there was no wind, the flowers and grass kept dancing, giving people a strange feeling.
Out of careful consideration, everyone tried to stay as far away from these plants as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble.
In such a dangerous situation, even a drop of water or a wisp of mist could bring about a fatal crisis.
They must not be curious or careless, or they could easily lose their lives.
Fortunately, these plants would not take the initiative to attack. Occasionally, leaves and petals would fall, but everyone would quickly dodge them.
As long as one was careful enough, this part of the road was not difficult to walk.
The real danger came from the enemies at the checkpoint ahead.
Tang Zhen allowed the interceptors to escape just to convey the news of his appearance. The other party would definitely consider the actual situation and decide whether to fight or make peace.
Before the final result, no one dared to take it lightly.
This time, they went very far, until an oasis appeared in front of them, which blocked all the safe passages.
A large group of descenders was waiting in front of the Oasis.
After the two sides met, the descenders didn’t show any hostility, but instead, they were willing to negotiate.
It was obvious that the previous two incidents had caused great losses to the other party, and they believed that fighting would only lead to mutual destruction.
It would have a huge impact on the exploration.
Otherwise, the moment the two sides met, the other party would definitely launch an attack without saying anything.
A few figures approached the flying shuttle and expressed their intentions, inviting Tang Zhen to join the alliance.
He went straight to the point and was extremely straightforward. His style of doing things was admired by Tang Zhen.
The other party did not ask about Tang Zhen’s background as it was meaningless. Every member of the Alliance had hidden their true identity.
This was to prevent any unforeseen events that would bring about unnecessary hidden dangers.
“If you’re willing to join us, we’ll immediately turn from enemies to friends, share all the information, and obtain the resources of the divine Kingdom.
Although your methods aren’t weak, anything can happen in the depths of this despair.
The power of one person is limited, after all, and only by working together can we achieve a win-win situation. I wonder if you agree?”
The other party’s attitude could be considered sincere. It was obvious that he had already made up his mind to sincerely invite Tang Zhen to join the alliance.
Since they wanted to cooperate, there was no need to play tricks. It would only increase suspicion and turn a good thing into a bad thing.
In fact, even if they were working together, they would still be secretly on guard. They had never interacted with each other in the past, so it was natural to be on guard.
Tang Zhen didn’t reject such an invitation to cooperate. He didn’t think of killing everyone from the beginning.
It would be best if they could achieve a win-win situation, but it didn’t matter if they couldn’t.
“Alright, I’m willing to cooperate.”
Tang Zhen controlled the corpse ghost and decisively gave a reply.
The tense atmosphere disappeared in a very short time.
The other party took out the contract and invited Tang Zhen to read it.
A verbal agreement did not count, and a soul contract had to be signed to provide a guarantee that would put one’s mind at ease.
Tang Zhen did not have any second thoughts as he openly signed the contract.
After all the procedures were completed, the other party immediately invited Tang Zhen to enter the Oasis for a detailed discussion.
The descenders who had been following them all the way became at a loss and didn’t know what to do.
After all, they were now outsiders. In order to prevent the secret from being leaked, the best way was to kill them.
They were not afraid of death, but the key was that they would miss a good opportunity. If no one guided them forward, they would not be able to find a safe path at all.
It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens to enter a hopeless situation and return to this place.
Not to mention that there were still two obstacles along the way.
Tang Zhen was able to easily pass the test because of his own strength. If it was them, it would not be so easy.
While they were unwilling to give up, some cultivators had already surrounded them and were ready to eliminate the hidden danger.
Through analysis, he could confirm that the stalker was not on the same side as Tang Zhen and was a target that must be eliminated.
Tang Zhen didn’t mind being followed, but this didn’t mean that they would allow it.
“Hold your hand.”
Tang Zhen suddenly opened his mouth and stopped the actions of his allies.
“To be able to follow them all the way here is enough to prove their strength. Why don’t we give them a chance and ask if they are willing to join the alliance?
If you’re not willing, it won’t be too late to kill you then.”
The Alliance shouldn’t be lacking in manpower, and the requirements to join were also very high. Tang Zhen was actively recruited because he was strong enough.
He had obtained the right to join through violent killing.
As for these followers, they were not qualified to join, and they were even a big problem.
After killing them, the news of the desperate situation might be leaked, but there was no other way.
At most, they would strengthen the defenses and protect the safety of the passage, not allowing other descenders to enter.
Letting a follower join the alliance meant that more secrets would be exposed. If the other party had bad intentions, it would definitely cause greater losses.
However, since Tang Zhen had opened his mouth, it was not good for him to directly reject.
Although he had just joined, Tang Zhen possessed quite a high status. No one dared to look down on this new member.
They exchanged glances and communicated in secret. They came to an answer in an instant.
since you’ve spoken, we can let them join, but they’ll have to sign a contract and be under constant supervision.
Although the conditions were harsh, it was a matter of course. After all, the follower was different from Tang Zhen.
Now that he had the opportunity, he was naturally overjoyed.
He was not afraid of death, but the opportunity was extremely hard to come by. Now that it was presented before his eyes, how could he refuse?
They all nodded and made promises, sincerely joining the Alliance and signing a soul contract.
In the following time, Tang Zhen followed a group of descenders and entered the depths of the Oasis.
As expected, there was a descender base hidden within this divine Kingdom.
If Tang Zhen didn’t join, the two sides would start a war again and this base would most likely be destroyed.
It was obvious that the other party had no choice but to cooperate and did not want to suffer greater losses.
