"Heh? Did you think that I wouldn't be able to see through your thoughts just because you didn't say anything? I've already seen it clearly. "
On the other side, Heavenly Lord Primeval Longevity opened his eyes and silently revised the Book of Life and Death with a warm smile.
"Pass down the order. Let all the races and civilizations under our command transform into demons. Announce to the outside world that we have reached a consensus with the newly appointed Heavenly Lord Creation. We are having a good talk and will create a prosperous era for the universe together to benefit the world!"
"Your Highness …"
A voice came from the side and said anxiously, "That's the other party's race! If we let our dependents fuse with the other party's bloodline, won't we be contributing our race to the other party? Will we divide all our forces equally with the other party? "
Their life dependents accounted for half of the entire universe continent's population!
Billions and trillions of lives!
Their bodies were filled with the laws of lifespan. Mortals could live for 10,000 years, and mortals couldn't bear it no matter how long they lived.
And these 10,000-year-old long-lived races all cultivated some kind of cultivation technique that burned their life force to rapidly increase their cultivation and combat strength. It was incomparably exaggerated.
Constantly increasing the upper limit of one's lifespan + constantly burning one's lifespan!
These two combinations simply made all the dependents under their command one of the most heaven-defying powerhouses.
This was also the terrifying aspect of the new universe continent.
They wanted to create perfect new humans!
It was just that previously, they had always lacked the most crucial life evolution law.
"But if we let our dependents fuse with the other party's race, won't we be sharing it equally with the other party and become the common dependents of both parties?"
"Heavenly Lord, this is too …" The minister said.
"This is the general trend, understand?"
Heavenly Lord Primeval Longevity sat on the chair, flicked his fingertips, and said indifferently, "You only care about small gains and losses. You are all short-sighted people.
"The general trend of heaven and earth is born with the trend and perishes against it. Even us Heavenly Lords are no exception.
"If we go against the general trend, we will be suppressed by all living beings. We Heavenly Lords will also perish. Nothing is eternal."
His gaze pierced through the sky. "When he created the Demon Race and wanted to clean up the garbage dump of the universe, it was already unstoppable. It was the hope of the masses.
"And the so-called hope of the masses is that he has given enough benefits to drive the common people."
He had already clearly seen the scene of the next few hundred years. He said softly, "In the current universe, the upper limit of the number of rules has doubled. In order to become stronger and become a new sage of the rules, the common people will have to enter the demon race. It will inevitably cause a frenzy, and a new era of rules will begin with dragon veins everywhere … Even if we, the Celestial Venerables, order the common people to not enter the demon race, will it be of any use?"
"The common people instead believe that the high and mighty Empyreans are afraid of their own rise, afraid that they will become the new Saint. They want to continue monopolizing everything, and the original grievances that have been accumulating for a long time will completely erupt. The Empyreans will be condemned by word and pen, losing the benevolence that they have accumulated all this time. This will damage the dignity of the Empyreans, leaving a gap between them and pushing them against the common people."
"This is an irresistible general trend. The other party is using the general trend to suppress us and frame us for being heartless and unjust. Then, I will use the other party's general trend to take the opportunity to announce that we are in alliance with Empyrean Creation. We will stand in the position of working for the common people and gain the favor of the common people together with the other party. We will suppress the other Empyreans and frame them for being heartless and letting them be insulted by the common people."
Empyrean Primeval Longevity was confident as he chuckled and said, "Therefore, we are the first to enter … and instead become the other party's dependents. You think that we are the ones at a disadvantage, but in fact, he is the one at a disadvantage. We are taking advantage of him, and the results of his race that he has worked so hard to reproduce are being stolen by us … What you see is only the situation between me and this new weak Empyrean. What I see is the overall situation, the various measures and confrontations of all the other Empyreans."
"Your Highness, why? But our numbers are all of our civilization and accumulation … "his subordinate hurriedly said.
"They are just some mortals. Although they seem to make up nearly half of the number of people in the universe, they are like weeds. Even if they die, they will be reborn.
"What we lack is powerhouses."
He waved his long sleeves and looked at the clouds below. He said coldly,
"The upper limit of the rules has been doubled. If we enter with our entire race and become demons, we will seize the initiative and have a second batch of Demon Path Sages. Wouldn't that be an opportunity?"
He smiled again and said, "He borrowed the general trend, but because he borrowed the general trend, it led to an era that does not belong to him alone. He has an opportunity, and so do we. We will just fight for it. The general trend will rise with the wind. This era of prosperity is a chance for mortals to reshuffle … We will still be high and mighty.
"However, the number of existences that are high and mighty like us has doubled … This group of people is no longer the Demon Lords with incomplete intelligence gathered by demonic thoughts, but the powerful intelligent life forms that are imprisoned in their bodies."
The Sages below held their breaths.
As expected of the current Empyrean, an ancient existence that was eternal and immortal. This level of wisdom had already seen through the truth of the world!
The other party was just a fake tiger. He was just a key to opening the era of prosperity. This era of prosperity had pried open the universe that was sealed off from the masses. Heroes could rise again, and a hundred schools of thought could contend. However, this also meant that everyone had a chance.
They, the Empyreans, could also send people into the world to fight for it.
"However, Empyrean Creation, this person is sinister, and his intelligence is not inferior to mine. He is a strange person and very difficult to deal with." Empyrean Longevity said solemnly. He thought of the other party's figure and kept muttering to himself.
This person was silent. From the beginning to the end, he was the one speaking, and he was the one listening. The other party had only said a few sentences, so it was difficult to determine where the other party's true body was or specific information.
It was difficult for the time law to capture the other party's true body. The other party could escape through the rivers of time. It was the same for the life law. He hid in every life and could be used as a springboard. Every supreme law was extremely heaven-defying, and it was never easy to completely obliterate a Empyrean.
At this moment, another voice came from below.
"Reporting to Empyrean, not only the demons, but the celestial race has also appeared," said a Sage in charge of inspection.
"Celestial race?" Empyrean Longevity said in surprise.
"Yes, the celestial race wasn't obvious at first, but now that their numbers have increased and they have appeared in the outer realms of the Primal Chaos, we only noticed them … The celestial race is a race similar to the demons, but they cultivate Golden Cores and Nascent Souls, not Demonic Cores and Demonic Infants." That Sage said in an orderly manner, "They don't restrain the demonic thoughts in their bodies and only walk the righteous path."
"Wouldn't that be a waste of a good bloodline?"
Empyrean Longevity pondered. "This race doesn't walk the path of restraining the demonic thoughts. Instead, they learn the righteous and traditional cultivation that has been practiced for billions of years. They are a race prepared for this garbage dump, but they don't go and clean up the garbage? It is simply a waste of the current momentum of the world. "
He said, "Present the celestial bloodline."
Very soon, the flesh and blood of the celestial bloodline was presented.
Empyrean Longevity carefully studied it and stood up in the great hall. He sized it up, and his expression suddenly changed. His eyes went blank. "Not good!"
Boom!
It was as if a shocking thunder had shaken the nine heavens.
"Your Majesty, what's the reason?" All the ministers asked in shock. Empyrean Longevity paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, constantly making deductions. "The laws of the universe are perfected, and the world is healthy. It is as if we, the rulers of the eternal dictatorship, are about to be pushed down from the throne."
"The celestial race has been born, and the great calamity of the Celestial Venerables' era is about to arrive! The demonic thoughts are pure, and the celestials want to destroy the heavens. They will replace the Celestial Venerables of the Laws and take the 33 Celestial Venerables in the sky as their Nascent Souls. They will operate the laws of the world. In the future, all of us will die, and none of us will be able to escape. We Celestial Venerables … I want to enter the world, reincarnate, and transcend the tribulation. "
He immediately closed the Book of Life and Death and left the Celestial Venerables' temple. He immediately reincarnated and disappeared from the mortal world. "Empyrean Creation, as expected of you. You have been silent all this while. Not only did you plot against the Demonic Venerables in the outer realms, but you also schemed against us!"
