The Yue clan stealing the country was like a stone that stirred up a thousand ripples, causing the world to be in an uproar.
Back then, the Jade tribe defeated the other tribes and led the people to take back Qiong Shan and Zhaoyuan. Just Now, with this achievement, the Jade tribe became the ruler. The Yue clan had no merit, no reputation, and seized power. Naturally, it was difficult for the people to calm down. Hence, many human tribes rose up to rebel against the Yue clan.
The Yue clan was naturally unwilling to hand over the divine weapon that they had stolen. Because they had been planning this for a long time, they reacted quickly. Taking advantage of the fact that the tribes had yet to unite, they quickly sent troops to quell the rebellion. Relying on the great number of Maguspriests in the clan, the few clans that had spoken out earlier were soon wiped out one after another. The few clans that had been ready to make a move had also quieted down. The situation seemed to be quite good, and if the situation continued like this, the Maguspriests might actually succeed.
But at this moment, a turning point appeared.
After the Yue clan army destroyed a large tribe, because they felt that the spoils were not enough, they turned their troops to attack a small tribe called Wen.
Originally, they thought that once the army arrived, they would definitely be able to raze it to the ground. However, during the intense battle, a few cultivators had appeared in the sky and executed various Divine Abilities and techniques. The Shaman Priests that followed the army could be said to be unable to fight back at all, and this army had suffered a crushing defeat because of this.
Ever since the cultivators descended to the lower realm, the tribes also worshiped many of them. Mainly, it was convenient for them to ask for the art of immortality. As for using it in battle, because of the gods above their heads, no one dared to think of using it. But after this battle, the tribes then realized that when these cultivators attacked, not a single god came out to stop them!
This was natural. This matter was, in essence, an internal conflict between the human tribes. The rise and fall of dynasties was very common. As long as it did not involve demons or other species harming mortals, the gods naturally did not care.
And after hearing this, the tribes that were originally afraid of the Yue clan and retreated in fear all raised their weapons again. At the same time, they followed the example of Wen tribe and invited cultivators to the army.
The Yue clan was also not willing to sit still and wait for death. Using the external objects of cultivation, they also recruited many cultivators.
But in this way, the conflict between the various tribes had evolved into an internal conflict between cultivators.
However, most of the Daoist cultivators were here for external medicine and were not mortal enemies. Of course, they would not fight to the death for mortals. When they met on the battlefield, they would only greet each other politely. Those with lower cultivation bases would take the initiative to give way. If their skills were similar, they would talk about their seniority and seniors. At most, they would spar a little. Rarely would they really fight to the death. Moreover, they were happy to let the battle drag on. This way, they could gain more from the other tribes.
The various tribes quickly noticed that this sort of battle completely gave the right to decide the outcome of the battle to the cultivators. This didn't conform to their original expectations, but in reality, they couldn't do anything about it, so they were extremely worried.
Just as the battle was at a stalemate, the Yue clan broke the stalemate first.
The Moon King received advice from the Mutants and recruited ferocious monsters and demons for his own use. Most of these Mutants and ferocious monsters were natives of Kun Shi. Some of them had only been able to take human form after listening to some basic scriptures. They were no longer beasts and naturally wouldn't follow any rules. Every time there was a battle, they would kill the cultivators. For a time, the Yue clan won again and again in battle.
However, they didn't realize that doing so was actually risking the world's condemnation. They were cutting themselves off from humanity. Even some of the tribes that had been watching from the sidelines saw that the Yue clan had actually allied with demons and Mutants. They were enraged and mobilized their troops, causing the situation to become more and more intense.
A storm was brewing in the Kun Shi Continent, but Zhang Yan and the others sat in the Four Heavens and did not move.
Under the calculations of the four of them, they knew that most of the fated people had already appeared.
The easiest thing to do now was to wait. After waiting for a few dozen years, if there were no major changes, most of these people would naturally die of old age. Then, it would be much easier to find the Origin Jade from the remaining people.
However, it wasn't that there were no variables here. A few of the fated people were taken in by the Mutants. From this point of view, the Origin Jade might also fall into their hands.
This was something unavoidable because the demons were also a force that stirred up karma. They naturally had the opportunity to obtain this item.
Dan Yi and the others knew that because the true body of the Connate Demons couldn't enter the Kun Shi Continent, if they sent people to snatch it by force, this generation would definitely not be a match for them. However, they had to worry that if there were too many external disturbances, the Origin Jade might not appear so smoothly. It was even possible that it wouldn't appear after this tribulation.
For example, when Cen Xiao took in disciples, he waited for the disciples to come up the mountain and worship themselves. He didn't take the initiative to ask. This was because he was worried that if he interfered too much, it would cause the Origin Jade to not appear. Therefore, before the results appeared, he could only sit and watch.
Dan Yi calculated again and sighed. "The tribes of the Human Dao only have a few tens of millions of people and the territory they occupy isn't big. In the next 50 years, the results will be clear. In just a few decades, it can be said to pass in the blink of an eye. However, we have to consider what we should do if the Origin Jade is taken by the demons. "
Fu Qingming said, "If it only falls into the hands of the demons, there is still room for negotiation. This generation is restricted by the agreement. If they want to bring back those who died in battle, they have to come out and exterminate the Extraterrestrial Demons. However, they have the Taiyi Golden Pearl behind them. It will definitely be taken by them."
Michihito Ichito said coldly, "Then I'd rather snatch it. Even if it causes the Origin Jade to be unable to enter the world, we can't let this bastard succeed!
However, Dan Yi said, "No! The Origin Jade entering the world involves many mysteries that even we don't know about. Even the sages of the past were cautious and didn't dare to act rashly. We should also be cautious. Moreover, this is equivalent to shedding all pretense of cordiality with Daoist Daoyi. If it causes the demons and the Heartless Path to besiege us, then we won't be able to resist. "
Fu Qingming and Michihito Ichito were also silent. As long as there was no way to restrain this person, there was no way to talk about any plan. Because whichever side this person stood on, that side would definitely win. From this point of view, if the Origin Jade did not fall on their side, then it would most likely be snatched by this person.
Michihito Ichito frowned and said, "Now, the only thing that can restrain this bastard is another Primordial Cardinal Treasure. However, after this treasure entered the world, we don't know where it has hidden and we still can't find it. What can we do?"
At this time, Zhang Yan said, "Regarding this treasure, I have some clues."
Dan Yi's spirit rose and he said, "Oh? Fellow Daoist, could it be that you have found this treasure? "
Zhang Yan smiled faintly and said, "I can't be completely sure at the moment. I will try my best, but even if I find this treasure, it may not listen to my orders. So I need to be prepared."
At this point, he reminded, "If it really comes to that, we actually don't have to defeat Daoist Daoist. As long as we can delay him for a moment, how can the Heavenly Demon and Heartless Path Daoists sit still? “
When Dan Yi and the others heard this, they all seemed to be deep in thought. Although it would be extremely difficult to carry out this plan, it was still a method.
Great Ling Mountain, Bi Division.
Master Zhi ended his daily preaching. After bidding farewell to his students, he walked down the branch path and returned to his residence. Along the way, from time to time, elders bowed to him.
He was now more than a hundred years old, but his appearance was still the same.
He said that he ate a dan fruit in his early years, which was why he looked like this.
Even though this was a little strange, the people in the tribe could accept it. Master Zhi could receive teachings from an immortal in his dream, so it was possible for him to gain some benefits. Plus, Master Zhi's long lifespan was also beneficial to them.
Master Zhi turned a corner and saw the plains below. The cultivated fertile land was shrouded in the sunset, looking very beautiful. The people in the tribe supported the old and the young, and their faces were filled with happiness. His eyes revealed a complicated expression as he thought, "I didn't want to stay here for a hundred years. Recently, I've been feeling uneasy. Even though I don't want to leave, it's time to leave."
After returning to his residence, he was about to push the door open when someone came near and handed him a letter. "My lord invites Master Zhi to a banquet."
Master Zhi took it and smiled, "So it's the Immortal Monarch's invitation. Please reply that I will come on time."
Ying Xi was a god, and among mortals, only he and Jun Wuqi could see her. Therefore, he often came to invite the two of them. He thought that since they knew each other, he should greet them before he left.
The person respectfully retreated.
Zhi Shi went back to burn some incense and bathe. When it was evening, he whistled and went to the top of a tree. A divine steed big bird flew over and he sat on it. Not long after, they arrived in front of the Guardian Deity Temple. He landed and walked up the stairs.
Because they were very familiar with each other, the guard not only didn't ask, but also opened the door for him.
When Master Zhi reached the inner room, he did not see Ying Xi. Instead, he saw a pale-faced young man sitting on the guest seat. He was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, "So Immortal Lord Ying has invited an Immortal Master as a guest."
Zhang Chan smiled and said, "I'm not here as a guest. I'm here to deliver a letter to you." As he said this, he took out a talisman and handed it over with both hands, "This is my lord's handwritten letter."
Master Zhi's expression changed slightly. He hesitated for a moment, but still took it. Once the letter was in his hand, he suddenly felt that everything around him stopped, as if everything was frozen.
When he looked up again, he saw a black-robed Daoist standing there.
Master Zhi's expression finally changed. He cried out, "Xuanyuan Daoist Lord?" He immediately realized that he had said something wrong. After a moment of silence, he let out a long sigh and cupped his hands. "When did Daoist Lord see through me?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you are bound to be involved in karma when you are in the mortal world. You planted the seed in the early years, and the fruit will eventually appear. I was just one step ahead of others."
Master Zhi let out a long sigh. After he entered the mortal world, he relied on his Innate Supernatural Power to exist in this body. That was why no one noticed anything wrong. Even Jun Wuqi only suspected it and couldn't confirm it. He didn't expect that his tracks would be exposed in the end. He said dejectedly, "Since Daoist Lord is here to find me, I guess I can't escape."
Zhang Yan shook his head and smiled. "Fellow Daoist, you worry too much. Your Qi activity has yet to solidify, and you are far from being a match for the Taiyi Golden Pearl. Moreover, if you are unwilling, I can't force you."
Master Zhi was stunned. He said, "If that's not the reason, then why did Daoist Lord come?"
Zhang Yan said meaningfully, "Just as I said Just Now, Fellow Daoist, there will always be traces when you are in the mortal world. If I can find you, then others can too. It's fine if I find Fellow Daoist, but if it's someone else or the Taiyi Golden Pearl, they may not treat Fellow Daoist well."
