Chapter 1220: 850 Cang Jie

Not far from the Light Realm, a huge shadow silently approached this area.

This shadow belonged to the Dark Clan, where there is light, there must also be darkness; the existence of the Light Clan naturally implied that of the Dark Clan.

However, compared to the Light Clan, the Dark Clan was much weaker, lacking a Quasi-Saint among them. Thus, the strength of the Dark Clan was far inferior to that of the Light Clan.

Ironically, in terms of talents, the Dark Clan surpassed the Light Clan. But the two Innate Saints born from the dark origin did not consider themselves related to the Dark Clan.

These two Innate Saints were the Great Black Sky Demon God from the Demonic Way and the Taoist Master Tai Ming from the Mystic Sect, both of whom were the oldest Innate Saints and contemporaries of the Demon and Taoist Ancestors.

Most importantly, these two powerful beings had not fallen and were still in existence.

If the Dark Clan could establish a connection with them, it would immediately undergo a revolutionary change and leap to become a powerful clan in the Prehistoric World. Unfortunately, such a scenario was merely wishful thinking and impossible to realize.

Therefore, to call the Dark Clan a strong clan in the Prehistoric World was an exaggeration; among the myriad clans, they were just ordinary, not even ranking in the top fifty.

The reason for their appearance today was clear—they were targeting the Light Clan. The Light Clan and the Dark Clan were sworn enemies, entangled with each other from the very beginning.

Regrettably, the Light Clan had produced a Light Ancestor, whereas the Dark Clan had no equivalent, allowing the Light Clan to far surpass them. Had it not been for the Dark Clan’s early alliance with the Heavenly Human Race, they would have been annihilated by the Light Ancestor long ago.

Now that the Light Ancestor had fallen, and the Light Clan had lost its pillar, the Dark Clan sensed an opportunity and immediately came out in full force, preparing to annihilate the Light Clan once and for all.

The reason the Light Clan and the Dark Clan were at odds was that their origins complemented each other; the fusion of light and darkness allowed them direct access to the essence of Tao, becoming more complete.

Therefore, members of both clans had always sought to devour each other, allowing their origins to achieve completeness and thereby ascend to higher realms.

For this reason, the two clans had evolved into mortal enemies. Today, the Dark Clan had arrived to devour the Light Clan, hoping to produce a Quasi-Saint of their own.

"The people of the Dark Clan are here!"

Deep within the Light Realm, numerous Taoist Masters of the Light Clan gathered together, watching the Tao light before them with grave expressions.

The Tao light deep within the Light Realm appeared to transform into a Bright Mirror, clearly reflecting everything nearby. The Dark Clan thought they were well hidden, but in reality, as soon as they approached the Light Realm, they had been discovered by the Light Clan.

"A bunch of scum who can’t stand the light also dare to appear before us."

"Do they really think that just because our ancestor has fallen, our clan is at anyone’s mercy? Haven’t they heard, a thin camel is still bigger than a horse; even if our Light Ancestor has fallen, we are not so easily dealt with by a mere Dark Clan."

"Their arrival is timely, saving us the trouble of looking for them. Now that our ancestor has fallen, our clan is in its most perilous time. To maintain our position in the Alliance of Ten Thousand Clans without a Quasi-Saint is impossible."

"It’s perfect, by devouring these invasive Dark Clan members, it will certainly enable our clan to produce a new Quasi-Saint."

These Quasi-Saints of the Light Clan, watching the approaching experts of the Dark Clan, sneered continuously.

The experts of the Dark Clan wanted to devour them to produce a Quasi-Saint, and they harbored the same thoughts.

Although they were saddened by the unexpected demise of the Light Ancestor, now was not the time for mourning; protecting the Light Clan was more important.

As long as the Light Clan was preserved, there would eventually be a time for the resurrection of the old ancestor. But if they couldn’t even preserve the Light Clan, then all was truly lost.

The crisis of extinction was imminent, who could afford to grieve?

...

......

"Something is not right!"

Jiang Chen, who had left with the Human Race Quasi-Saint not long ago, suddenly stopped in his tracks, looking uncertainly at the Human Race Quasi-Saint beside him as he asked:

"Senior, do you think that those clans, having lost their Quasi-Saint, might be attacked by rival clans?"

An elder-looking Human Race Quasi-Saint responded, "That’s a certainty. All the clans are as fierce as tigers and wolves, without a shred of compassion. When they see an opportunity, how could they possibly ignore it?"

"Not to mention, half of those nine clans are among the top ten of the Ten Thousand Clans, controlling the best resources. Many clans have been envious of them on normal days, only restricted by their own lack of strength."

"But now, the biggest obstacle is gone, and they will no longer suppress their desires. They are likely already taking action."

As soon as the old Quasi-Saint finished speaking, several Quasi-Saints immediately chimed in: "Indeed, indeed, what Saint Cang Jie said is most accurate."

"The clans know no compassion; though called an alliance, it’s really just a loose sand. Without external threats, their internal struggles are the most brutal, often aimed at the extinction of clans."

Cang Jie!

The Human Race old Quasi-Saint who had just spoken was none other than Cang Jie. He was the creator of the Human Race’s script, a true great saint of the Human Race.

His status in the Human Race was only second to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and his strength had reached the full extent of the Quasi-Saint realm long ago. If not for the troubles in the Human Race causing a decline in fate which affected Cang Jie and delayed his cultivation, he would have become one of the Great Divine Transcendents long ago.

"What the Saint says is true!"

In face of Cang Jie, Jiang Chen dared not show disrespect. The old master’s status in the Human Race was much higher than his own; though he was the Human King, the old master was a sage, to whom even the Three Sovereigns would address respectfully as Saint.
