Chapter 857 Communicating with the Spirits of the Land

"Brrrr…Beeeep. Beep Diii Booop." Oddly, weird nostalgic sounds of an internet modem connecting to the internet resounded through the System's intercom as the System tried to communicate with the Spirits of the Land. However, that was all Jin could hear. He was unaware that the System was already chatting with them in their own special way.

"Query: Cultivation World's Spirit of the Land No. 769 and No. 052, System wishes to bargain for temporary total control over your land." The System stated in a digital telegram which no human would ever see.

"Acknowledging Cultivation World's Super Entity No. 002's request for communication. Please stand by... Connecting." The digital telegram subsequently turned into an invitation for channel communication.

"Connected. Involved parties received Query. Please stand by for a reply."

"Reply: Cultivation World's Spirit of the Land No. 769 and No. 052 both have noticed the amount of damage inflicted on their property. Cultivation World's Super Entity No. 002 request has been acknowledged, and they are willing to provide free reign over the mountainous forest area on certain conditions." The Channel that the System was connected to had started to send its demands.

"Acknowledged. Requests received. Reading the conditions to the agreement as per confirmation. Condition 1: Total annihilation of the Demons/Monster Horde in the affected area. Condition 2: Recultivate the forest to its former state. Condition 2-1: Restoration of wildlife to at least 25% of the initial state before the damage of this attack. Any amount above is not necessary but appreciated. Upon accepting these conditions, Spirit of the Land No.769 and No.052 are willing to waive off the tribute fee." The System reported.

"Reconfirmation of the conditions acknowledged. Any questions?" The Channel sent the digital telegram back.

"Negative. Cultivation World's Super Entity No. 002 accepts the agreement and generosity of the Spirits of the Land."

"Acknowledged. Likewise, Spirits of the Land thank Super Entity for the helping." After that last reply, the Channel ceased to exist, and a temporary authorisation certificate had been sent to the System's possession, giving it the control that it needed.

"User, the System has received the confirmation. However, there were conditions attac-" The System was about to list the conditions for Jin who was already edging from falling into unconsciousness.

"Just do it… Fuck all the conditions." Jin slurred and the System acknowledged its User's request.

"Affirmative. Please wait for a moment. Preparing for mass teleportation of all Bone Infused Demons into User's Open World Island instances as a holding area. In the meantime, it would be best for User to remove the Loopa Ooofpa before the mass teleportation activates." The System said as it newfound the lay of the land thanks to the authorisation certificate.

Without the need of a satellite like in the Goblin World, the complete unfettered control of the land gave the System an unparalleled amount of information to locate each, and every Bone Spirit Infused Demons. Its authorisation had also spread to the forests connecting to Dongguan Borders.

But to its surprise, the Loopa Ooofpa manifestation in Dongguan Borders was brought to a halt with the aid of Que Er's murder of crows and magpies. While the birds were distracting the hand tentacles from killing the District Guardian, it also formed a physical wall around the Golden Griffin, granting Grandma Yuan the time to execute her technique. 

Not just any technique but the strongest in her arsenal. The Golden Thunder of the Gleaming Griffin complimented with the gravity implosion bomb aftermath. Its frightening boom in the dark night skies temporarily lit up the skies and even made the Qilin Cultivator Lein who specialised in lightning afraid of the ferocity of her power. If anything, Lein believed that the art itself was particularly close to a Legendary Art, were it not for his teacher's grade, which should not allow for such a thing.

Nevertheless, Grandma Yuan was not the MVP of that fight. That role would go to Yun who hammered in the proverbial nail that caused the death of the Loopa Ooofpa before it could do anything else.

The imitation of her late husband Epic Silver Griffin Art, Raging Thunder of the Silver Griffin complemented Grandma Yuan's technique, causing it to inadvertently electrocute the other Elder Wang before he could copy his older brother into sacrificing himself to summon a massive Monster Horde.

Even as the 'heart' of the colossal manifestation in Dongguan was killed, the horde it was producing dropped in terms of quantity but did not fully stop. However, it did not matter much because the elite Demon Exorcists once trained by Grandma Yuan had finally arrived.

"Hmm, a possible gathering for the funeral?" Yun asked after she sat down on the Golden Griffin behind the older woman as if nothing had happened.

"Your mouth is as bad as the first time I met you." Yuan snapped at her and yet at the same time, smirked ever so slightly. She might not be the same Yun but the fact that the System had always been copying stuff since the day of its inception, there was no doubt that the clone was still somewhat Yun even though her Dantian had been corrupted.

"Whatever. Just go back soon, my air barrier will not keep you safe much longer from all this forest smoke." Yun said while she was tapping something on her phone.

"No wonder, I did not have any breathing difficulties despite fighting above the forest fire. And here I thought Griffy had to do something about that." Yuan commented without actually thanking the other woman. Instead, she rubbed the feathers of her chi manifestation, and it cawed softly at the back scratch. 

"And if Griffy had allowed you to sit this long behind me without making any fuss, means that there's still a part of old Yun inside you." Grandma Yuan thought to herself. She had already noticed it earlier as her Golden Griffin had obediently allowed Yun right before the start of the flight. Usually, it would kick a fuss or even bully the pillion rider with its tail since the proud Griffin usually never allowed more than one person riding it. 

"System is very pleased to see both of you safe. With this being the case, System will leave Dongguan alone. Please clean up." The System analysed that it would be cumbersome if it interfered with the Demon Exorcists reinforcements. 

However, that did not mean it missed the chance to secretly teleport away some Bone Spirit Infused Demons for its own keeping. It was wise enough to only choose those out of the sight from the humans and left the rest for the elite Demon Exorcists to handle. After all, half of the forest was still burning strongly from the napalm attack, and visibility was a problem.

"We are finally done..." Jin and Zieg said out in the System Channel simultaneously as the power suit he had on, immediately deactivated from the lack of Maqi holding it into place. Jin panting with beads of sweat dripping from his head, bit his tongue and spit at the ritual circle as the last ceremonial step.

"Good job." Kraft did not mince his words as he could feel the Maqi emanating from the enlarged Banishment Circle which had been spread around the forest.
