Chapter 681: Chapter 631: The Decision of the Ancient Country of the Great River

It has to be said that the idea proposed by the Sky Wasteland sounds fanciful, but it is not impossible, especially considering the current situation.

In the past, even if they knew this could strengthen countless cultivators, they would not consider this method unless necessary. But the times have changed; the Ancestral Land has revived.

For many forces in the Sky Wasteland, they may have survived thousands of years, but the Ancestral Land is what they truly care about. Now that the Ancestral Land has been completely revived, the Sky Wasteland has essentially become redundant to them.

Now that the Sky Wasteland has lost its function, if it could be merged into the Ancestral Land, making the Ancestral Land stronger, this is undoubtedly a win-win situation.

And for many powerhouses that are looking forward to strengthening the Ancestral Land, it is good news.

For people like the Ancestor Celestial Master, Qingxu Taoist, Zhao Baiyang, Xue Wuheng, and Bai Xiaosheng, their previous accumulation has basically been digested with the advantage of the revival of heaven and earth. It’s true that it has saved them countless time and pushed them to the Spirit Realm Sixth Level. But compared with the current Great World, that’s still not quite enough.

Especially after Pei Xuanjing took consecutive actions, killing several Spirit Realm Eightfold cultivators and suppressing the strongest in the Nine Realms of Spirit. The ceiling for power clashes in this world has been raised, a stark contrast to the slow development of the Great World that many people have learned from the classics.

Therefore, people like the Ancestor Celestial Master, who should have shone brightly in the early stage of this Great World, are completely overshadowed by Pei Xuanjing’s might.

There’s nothing anyone can say about this situation. They can only withstand it in silence.

Now that the news from the Sky Wasteland has arrived, Bai Xiaosheng contacted these parties in silence after receiving it. He clearly knew that beings who had once stood at the apex like them would absolutely not be willing to slip back into the sea of mediocrity. If there was even a sliver of a chance to become stronger, they would never let it pass.

As expected, all of these people decisively agreed. After all, they all held a Divine Position. If they can make this happen, they would undoubtedly reap great benefits, just like the Great Ming Divine Dynasty did when it ascended.

Even the Ancestor Celestial Master, who had received all the legacy of the Ancestor Celestial Master, showed no hesitation at this moment. An old fox like him understood that the Sky Wasteland’s Dragon Tiger Mountain, with its years of heritage, contains who knows how many powerful beings. The favor he currently drew would inevitably arouse countless people’s jealousy and dissatisfaction. As long as this matter did not involve life or death, even the Ancestor Celestial Master could not intervene.

Therefore, the Ancestor Celestial Master, seasoned by countless struggles, knew only by becoming stronger could he still have a say when the Dragon Tiger Mountain of the Sky Wasteland descended, preventing himself from becoming a vassal.

When even someone as well-backed as the Ancestor Celestial Master is like this, the other parties with no backing are even more eager. Zhao Baiyang’s Outsider Alliance, Xue Wuheng of the Demonic Cult, and the Qingxu Taoist from the True Martial Sect all share similar thoughts.

Among these people, Qingxu Taoist is the most supportive of the plan, because the Zhenwu Plan that the True Martial Sect is secretly carrying out actually aligns well with this. If they can take this opportunity to garner more approval from the will of heaven and earth, the Divine Positions obtained by the True Martial Sect will become even stronger, inevitably making the deities deriving from the Zhenwu Plan more powerful.

Therefore, after receiving the support of these people, Bai Xiaosheng personally came to Shenxiao Mountain to meet Pei Xuanjing, hoping to gain Pei Xuanjing’s support.

Originally, when he saw that Pei Xuanjing was unmoved, he was a bit disappointed, but he had already decided to carry out the plan by himself.

Now, although Bai Xiaosheng doesn’t know why Pei Xuanjing changed his mind, it couldn’t be better for him. He didn’t delve into it, and left with a smile of satisfaction.

Watching Bai Xiaosheng’s retreating figure, Pei Xuanjing’s mouth curled into a subtle smile and he murmured a name, “Great River Ancient Country.”

The Great River Ancient Country, Bai Xiaosheng would certainly be surprised if he heard this name. He would wonder why Pei Xuanjing suddenly mentioned the Great River Ancient Country.

It should be known that during the coronation of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, it was the Great River Ancient Country that had impudently tried to snatch the divine mandate during the ceremony. After they were suppressed by Pei Xuanjing, it could be said that a feud had formed between the two sides.

Later, even though Heaven and Earth revived, due to Pei Xuanjing’s gradual strengthening, the Great River Ancient Country kept retreating and didn’t have any thoughts of confronting Pei Xuanjing. As a result, the two sides temporarily set their conflicts aside and tacitly let the matter rest. After all, they knew that compared to Pei Xuanjing, the geniuses who died were insignificant and not worth the Great River Ancient Country fighting against Pei Xuanjing.

Could it be that that streak of light came from the Great River Ancient Country, and they sent the message to Pei Xuanjing?

Yes, that streak of light indeed came from the Great River Ancient Country. It would come as a surprise to everyone that the Great River Ancient Country would take the initiative to send a message to Pei Xuanjing, and it was a highly confidential message, too.

The Sky Wasteland, the Great River Ancient Country, as the descendents of Emperor Zhuanxu, who was the ruler of all under heaven in ancient times, and the offspring of Bo Yi and the same lineage as Pre-Qin, one of the vassal ancient countries inherited from the Heavenly Zhou era, has unimaginable resources.

With the national guardian deity, the Honghu Divine Bird, the Great River Ancient Country is the true overlord among these forces and is by no means comparable to the Canglang Palace.

This time, the council in the Sky Mechanism Pavilion was personally attended by the ancestor of the Great River Ancient Country, and the ruler of the Great River Ancient Country guarded the ancient country, preparing for some matters.

Even though he was only dressed in ordinary clothes today, without wearing the crown and robe with the Honghu Divine Bird, the ruler of the Great River Ancient Country was still majestic, and no one dared to belittle his presence.

He stood on a terrace, with an old man following behind him. This was Li Zhongshan, Marquis Lixian, who had pushed for Ying Zhong to return to the Ancestral Land and subsequently had a conflict with Pei Xuanjing.

“Marquis Lixian, are you curious why I sent this message to Pei Xuanjing?” The ruler of the Great River Ancient Country, Ying Lie, spoke with his hands behind his back.

Hearing the ruler’s question, Marquis Lixian immediately replied respectfully, “Your servant is indeed curious!”

If it were anyone else, they would instinctively deny it. But as Marquis Lixian, who has served the ruler for thousands of years, he clearly understood how formidable the ruler was, and didn’t dare to hide anything.

Ying Lie said, “I won’t elaborate on the reasons. Actually, you should understand. More importantly, this is not only my opinion but also the will of our ancestor.”
