Ye Tianze boarded the airship and flew thousands of miles away from Taihai Valley. Only then did he realize that this was not a test.
This time, there were 31 Heavenly Dao powerhouses from Taihai Valley. In addition, there were also 1,000 Peerless Dao cultivators. It was a powerful lineup.
However, Valley Master Shan Hai Yifan did not come out. The 31 Heavenly Dao powerhouses all followed his lead and called him the Sacred Lord.
This time, he was the leader of Taihai Valley.
Shan Hai Yifan explained to him, "Valley Master said that we should all listen to your orders. Your orders are his orders. If you ask us to die, we won't even frown."
"Mm!" Ye Tianze said. "Then tell me about the situation in Wuliang Mountain. Who are the worthy opponents in this competition for the position of Lord of the Mountains and Seas? How did it go in the past?"
Hearing this, Shan Hai Yifan frowned. In fact, this was his first time participating in the election for the position of Lord of the Mountains and Seas. Although it looked like an election, it was actually a competition to see who was the strongest to be the Lord of the Mountains and Seas.
At the end of the Plague War, there was no Lord of the Mountains and Seas. The Mountain Sea Clan had to obey the orders of the Human Emperor and the Lord of the Paramita Shore.
The Mountain Sea Clan only obeyed the Human Emperor's orders in name. They mainly obeyed the orders of the Lord of the Paramita Shore.
"The previous Lord of the Mountains and Seas has already fallen. According to the ancient records …" Shan Hai Yifan began to narrate the last Plague War.
Once again, Ye Tianze listened to the legends about him, and this time, they were even more detailed. Yi Yue of the Mountains and Seas described them vividly, and Ye Tianze listened with great interest.
"Since then, there has been no Lord of the Mountains and Seas, because no one is qualified to be the Lord of the Mountains and Seas!" Shan Hai Yifan said. "He is a true legend."
"Mm." Ye Tianze nodded. "He is indeed a hero and can be considered a legend. Let's talk about the opponents this time. What are they good at? What kind of powerhouses are they …?"
Inside the Cloudsoaring Shuttle, discussions broke out. All of the cultivators from Taihai Valley shared what they knew in order to prepare for the competition.
Ye Tianze had not only learned about Sacred Mountains and Eight Seas, but he had also learned about their respective Laws and specialties.
This was of great help to his understanding of the Shanhai Clan. As the saying goes, know thyself and know thy enemy, and thou shalt be victorious in a hundred battles.
Ye Tianze never liked to fight unprepared battles.
However, even if the Shanhai Clan had held nothing back, he also knew that in the eyes of others, the Shanhai Clan was still very one-sided. Only by truly fighting and exchanging blows would one know the true strength of the Shanhai Clan, and whether or not they were bragging.
"The Three Mountains and Eight Seas each have their own abilities. Then …" Ye Tianze said, "Do they have things like Earth Dragon Stones like us?"
"Yes." "Mu Hai Valley has Wood Dragon Crystals, Skysea Valley has Golden Dragon Blood … Every valley and sea has a unique resource for cultivators from all over the Three Mountains and Eight Seas to cultivate."
"Mm!" Ye Tianze nodded and said, "How do we get these things? I remember Shan Haiwei said that Mu Hai Valley came for Earth Dragon Stones, but we didn't give them any, right? "
"That's right. Every year, we provide Mu Hai Valley with a portion of Earth Dragon Stones of superior quality. Since the Sacred Lord is here, we can't give them any, so they found an excuse to fight with us. In fact, they are trying to suppress us," Shanhai Valley Mountain said.
Shan Hai Yiye said, "This is a very common thing in the Shan Hai clan."
"So you're saying that it's very easy for us to get Golden Dragon Blood and Wood Dragon Crystals?" Ye Tianze asked.
"That's not the case," Shanhai Valley Mountain said.
The Lone Night of the Mountains and Seas said, "There are actually rules in the competition between the Three Mountains and Nine Seas. For example, the One Valley that we are suppressing can actually also be suppressing them. The One Valley that we are suppressing can also suppress the One Valley that they are suppressing. In this way, they are mutually suppressing each other. This is an internal competition to maintain vitality, but in truth, it is also to suppress each other's strength so that the One Valley does not end up at the bottom!
"What happens if you end up at the bottom?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Bottom!" Shanhai Valley Mountain said awkwardly, "It's not a big deal, but … you'll lose some face. You'll be inferior to others when you go out."
Ye Tianze smiled, but he didn't mock them for being so prideful. The Shanhai Clan valued honor so much that they naturally wouldn't want to lose face.
Moreover, they felt that being at the bottom was shameful. This in itself was a motivation to move up.
"So you're risking your lives to get a good result in this competition?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Yes." All the Heavenly Dao cultivators present nodded.
"Even if you can't become the Lord of the Mountains and Seas, I still hope that you can go further. That way, our Taihai Valley's ranking will be higher."
A Heavenly Dao cultivator said.
"But what's the use of a high ranking? We'll have to face the Plague of Death soon," Ye Tianze said. "Are these empty titles so important?"
"No."
The cultivators present refuted almost at the same time, which surprised Ye Tianze.
Lone Night of the Mountains and Seas said, "The higher the ranking, the closer the warriors of Taihai Valley will be to the front in the battle against the death plague. They will be closer to the Lord of the Mountains and Seas, and won't be placed at the edge of the battlefield and be taken care of by others."
"Yes, it's very shameful to be taken care of. We don't want to be taken care of by others," the group of cultivators said almost in unison.
Ye Tianze looked at them and was speechless. He suddenly felt that they were a little cute. It reminded him of Tang Tianjun, his Weiyang Army, and those familiar faces.
They knew that they would die, but they were still willing to stand at the front. That was a brave man. However, they were still willing to stand at the front and treat death as an honor. They could be called heroes.
"Don't worry, I will do my best to get the best ranking and let you get what you want," Ye Tianze said.
When he said that, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief. They trusted Ye Tianze very much. Although they knew that with Ye Tianze's strength, it was still very difficult for him to become the Lord of the Mountains and Seas.
However, with his strength, it wouldn't be a problem for him to get a good ranking and improve their Taihai Valley's ranking.
"I want some Wood Dragon Crystals. If there are any treasures from other valleys, it's best to get some for me," Ye Tianze said.
"This …" Shanhai Valley Mountain Sea was a little embarrassed and said, "If it's a normal time, we can get it, but we're at the bottom, so it's very difficult. Almost no valley is willing to exchange with us."
The other Heavenly Dao cultivators present were the same. They felt a little guilty. After all, Ye Tianze was fighting for them, but they couldn't even do that.
"Is there no other way?" Ye Tianze asked.
"There is!" A Heavenly Dao cultivator said, "Let's improve our ranking, then we can exchange with them directly at Wuliang Mountain. Moreover, every victory will be rewarded."
