Xiong Zhong took the map and slowly spread it out. This map was made from the fur of a high-grade magic beast. It clearly depicted all the mountains and rivers of this world, including all the regions of the four major races. And on this map, there were a few regions that were marked with red circles. Each region marked by a red circle occupied a small territory of the four major races.
When Xiong Zhong saw the regions outlined by the red circles, his eyebrows immediately furrowed, and his expression became somewhat ugly. Soon after, he passed the map in his hand to the protector elders beside him. Without exception, all the protector elders frowned when they saw the map, and their faces were filled with displeasure.
"The contribution of our World of Forsaken Saints is so great that it's only below sovereign Jianchen of your world. It's even enough to rival sovereign Jianchen, because if it weren't for the sacrifice of the tens of thousands of people from our world, even with Jianchen's existence, it would have been useless in the end. Are you on the path to destruction? We've protected your world and saved countless lives in your world, yet you're only willing to give up a tiny bit of land after we've contributed so much. Aren't you going a little too far?" Xiong Zhong growled. He understood that the Tian Yuan Continent no longer feared the World of Forsaken Saints. Under such circumstances, the only way to obtain a piece of land in this world was through negotiations other than through war. This was the only time they would be able to negotiate, so it would be very difficult for them to change their decision in the future.
As a result, whether it was Xiong Zhong or all the protectors and elders stationed in this world, they had already made up their minds. They would try their best to obtain as many benefits as possible while maintaining peace. This was because it would directly affect the future of the World of Forsaken Saints. It was extremely important.
Houston gently coughed when he heard Xiong Zhong's words. He said, "Your World of Forsaken Saints has played a great role in stopping the crisis of the world, but there's one thing you're wrong about. Our world is not the only one affected by the crisis. Your World of Forsaken Saints is affected as well. Our world is at the very front of the battle. Once our world fails to stop the crisis, your World of Forsaken Saints will be doomed as well. In the face of the great calamity of the world, our two worlds are grasshoppers on the same rope. We are bound together for good or ill, so I hope you don't think of yourselves as heroes who have saved our world, because we are all saving ourselves. "Houston said indifferently.
The expressions of all the protectors and elders from the World of Forsaken Saints became rather ugly when they heard that. Houston's words seemed to have stripped them of all the contributions they had made in stopping the crisis of the world.
Before the people from the World of Forsaken Saints could reply, Houston continued, "In reality, no matter what contributions your World of Forsaken Saints has made, there's no need for us to give you any land at all because Jianchen played a leading role in stopping the crisis. If it were not for Jianchen's treasure, no matter how special your bloodline is, you would not have been able to avoid the fate of being devoured by the crisis. The reason why we agreed to give you some land after the war was to complete their final wishes and allow them to rest in peace."
.....
On the negotiation table, both sides were arguing fiercely about the issue of territory. Both sides could say a lot of things, and neither side was willing to give way to the other.
Fortunately, the Origin realm experts of both worlds were fearful of each other. As a result, both sides intentionally controlled their emotions to avoid a situation where they began to fight even though the argument was very intense.
The Tian Yuan Continent feared the number of Origin realm experts from the World of Forsaken Saints and Xiong Zhong, who had reached Reciprocity.
The protectors and elders from the World of Forsaken Saints feared Shangguan Mu 'er on Three Saint Island. Although Shangguan Mu' er was not present and Three Saint Island was tens of millions of kilometers away from Flame City, they could cross that distance with a single step with their strength.
Very soon, the first day of negotiations came to an end. Neither side made any progress after that day of negotiations. The people from the Tian Yuan Continent were determined to give up as little land as possible, while the protectors from the World of Forsaken Saints wanted a piece of land that they were satisfied with no matter what. Naturally, the two sides were unable to reach an agreement.
The arctic tundra was not within the territory of the Tian Yuan Continent, and it was also far away from Three Saint Island. A golden divine hall stood silently on the tundra. Within the divine hall.
All the protectors and elders from the World of Forsaken Saints had gathered there.
"This world has gone too far. Our World of Forsaken Saints has contributed so much against the crisis of the world, yet they're saying that we're worthless. They're only willing to give us a tiny bit of land. Our population is so great, so the tiny bit of land they're offering is nowhere near enough," a protector furiously said.
The people in the hall fell silent. Their complexions were very ugly. They had understood the attitude of the Tian Yuan Continent after the first day of negotiations. Clearly, it would not be easy for them to obtain more land in this world.
"It's a pity that the Spiritking isn't here, so we have to be cautious during the negotiations. We don't dare to offend the people of this world. Even if we ignore the fact that Shangguan Mu 'er is watching over us, there's the even more terrifying Jianchen right above us. He's no weaker than the Spiritking. If Jianchen suddenly emerges …" An elder said with a heavy voice. His face paled slightly as he reached the end of his sentence.
Xiong Zhong gently sighed, "That's true. Although Jianchen is in seclusion, no one knows when he'll emerge. If he suddenly emerges and wants to deal with us, none of us will be able to make it back to the World of Forsaken Saints alive. I think we should delay the negotiations until the Spiritking arrives."
.....
The Origin realm experts of the four races remained in Flame City on the Tian Yuan Continent. After the first day of negotiations, they gathered together once again. Only Xiao Jin, Xiao Ling, and the four brothers, who did not care about the matter of land, were not present. The six of them had left after the negotiations had concluded.
"The World of Forsaken Saints sure is greedy. The land they want is just far too large. How can we give up such a large piece of land so easily? After all, they're not people of our world," Guihai Yidao said with a heavy voice.
"The negotiations regarding land can't be concluded in a day or two. In my opinion, let's delay the negotiations until Jianchen emerges. We'll ask him for his opinion. After all, if it weren't for the fact that Jianchen possessed the strength to fend off the Spiritking, we wouldn't have the right to negotiate with the World of Forsaken Saints," Poseidon said.
"Alright, let's delay the negotiations until my great-grandson emerges from seclusion. After all, my great-grandson has the greatest right to speak," Yang Lie chuckled. Yang Lie said with a smile. When he talked about his great-grandson, there was an unconcealable pride between his brows.
"Yang Lie, you seem to be afraid that we don't know that Jianchen is your descendant. Don't be so complacent," Guihai Yidao sneered. Guihai Yidao jokingly scolded from the side. He was really jealous that Yang Lie had such a heaven-defying descendant.
A huge, blood-red cloud hovered in outer space. Jianchen sat within the cloud as the essence of the cloud condensed in the surroundings, turning into a red mist that was even darker in color. It permeated Jianchen's surroundings and was absorbed through Jianchen's pores through his breathing.
After the red mist entered Jianchen's body, it was rapidly converted into Chaotic Force. The rate at which it was refined was clearly much faster than before.
At this moment, the chaotic neidan in Jianchen's dantian was no longer the same as when he had just broken through to the eighth layer. His chaotic neidan slowly grew as he constantly refined the energy in the cloud. Even though the growth was very slow, every tiny bit of growth meant that he was one step closer to the ninth layer of Chaotic Force.
"I might be able to break through to the ninth layer of the Chaotic Body here. When I break through to the eighth layer, my cultivation will be equivalent to reaching early Reciprocity from Receival, skipping Returnance. However, if I reach the ninth layer here, just what level of cultivation will my Chaotic Body reach? Will I reach peak Reciprocity? Or will I directly break through to Godhood? "Jianchen thought. At the same time, he was filled with eagerness.
The eighth layer of the Chaotic Body gave him battle prowess at Godhood, but that was only battle prowess. His original cultivation was only at early Reciprocity, so just what level would his battle prowess reach if he also reached Godhood?
