Chapter 514: Chapter 134 Simple Conditions for Peace Talks_1
"A truce?"
Qi Yuan was somewhat surprised.
The Evil God had actually sent a military leader to negotiate a truce.
"How do you propose we make peace?"
At the moment, the gods under his command were still settling down, digesting the Observation Divine Law.
There was no rush.
The military leader named Wu Kui quickly spoke up, his tone very respectful.
"The Mortal Heart Realm is a primordial realm, Your Excellency should understand the extraordinary nature of primordial realms!"
Wu Kui continued to speak.
"The primordial realm was formed when the world first opened. The creatures here look like humans, but they are indeed different entities.
They are not from our human race, thus, their motives are certainly different.
Your Excellency has awakened the wisdom of your previous life, which separates you from the primordial creatures, why entangle yourself with these different entities?
The Human Clans and the primordial creatures have always been natural enemies."
A murderous intent flashed in Qi Qi’s eyes: "We are not human? Only you are?"
A chill filled Wu Kui’s heart for no apparent reason.
There was a sense in his heart that if this woman made a move, he would have absolutely no chance to survive.
Was he in shock, facing yet another divine myth?
As for the former identity of Origin Heavenly Dao, he started guessing in his heart.
It must have been an extremely powerful existence.
"To distinguish between primordial creatures and our human race, or even the demon race, is quite simple.
Primordial creatures are born from chaos, carrying a strain of chaotic breath in their bodies.
This strain of chaotic breath represents infinite possibilities.
Because of this chaos breath, primordial creatures can transform into demons, monsters, humans, and even evil beings.
These first-born evils are a plague on the people, and everyone is obligated to punish them.
In the upper realm, we are even greater enemies with these first-born evils!
To figure out if a disguised cultivator is a primordial creature is simple.
This realm has the Observation Divine Law, and only the primordial creatures who possess a strain of chaos breath can cultivate this law."
Wu Kui explained his words, from their literal meaning, he was not deceiving Qi Yuan.
Primordial creatures from the primordial realm meant infinite possibilities.
They take the forms of humans, monsters, and beasts, but consider themselves to be human.
However, that’s not the case.
Because of the strain of chaos breath in their bodies, primordial creatures can cultivate the Observation Divine Law, improve their strength extremely fast, and are most easily misled by evil gods from other realms.
To common cultivators, the primordial creatures are considered heretics, and almost everyone wants to fight them.
After all, a proud talent may need tens of thousands of years to break into the Yin God realm.
Primordial creatures, on the other hand, can enter the Yin God realm overnight.
Towards primordial creatures, almost all cultivators are filled with extreme jealousy and dread.
But as for a primordial realm, the thoughts of all cultivators are completely different.
This is not dread, but unbridled desire.
This is because a primordial realm is extremely special and can create countless primordial creatures.
For a Divine Myth who possesses the ability to ascend to heaven in seven steps, if they want to step into the Yang God realm, they need to cultivate their own forces.
The more Yin Gods that swear allegiance in the divine realm, the larger the potential, the stronger the strength, and the greater the potential when stepping into the Yang God realm.
Thus, if one could take control of a primordial realm, a Divine Myth could quickly accumulate power, step into the Yang God realm, and not just any ordinary Yang God realm either.
A primordial realm is very important to the Divine Myth and, similarly, important to the Yang God.
Wu Kui did not know the specific contents.
But he knew that a complete, intact primordial realm had the potential to elevate a Yang God’s realm even further.
This was an absolutely terrifying prospect!
This is the realm of the Yang God!
A regular world can be easily destroyed by the Yang God.
Wu Kui, the military leader, couldn’t even begin to imagine how difficult it would be for such a being to elevate their realm.
So, it was said that a primordial realm could help a Yang God ascend to another level, making it an incredible temptation.
Moreover, the primordial realm was isolated and disconnected from the main world. Thus, the primordial creatures inside will never become the Yang God’s.
The strongest being in this realm was but a single Divine Myth. To a Yang God, this realm was a delicacy.
However, there was an immense apprehension toward the primordial realms which had been connected to the main realm for a long time by every Yang God.
Who knew what kind of monsters were growing within?
Qi Yuan listened to Wu Kui’s words and saw, in part, his inner thoughts. He smiled.
"Interesting."
Since only the primordial creatures could visualize the Observation Divine Law, then what was he?
Could he visualize the Three Purities as well?
"Your Excellency’s origins are mysterious, and currently due to the primordial realm, you’re trapped in your status as a Divine Myth.
My lord once said that he’s willing to make friends with Your Excellency and to share the primordial realm with you.
Your subjects can be inducted into your divine realm, and you can take them away. Once these primordial creatures pledge their allegiance and Your Excellency leaves the Mortal Heart Realm, you can step into the Yang God realm, and not an ordinary one."
"So, can I take my subjects and leave the Mortal Heart Realm now?" Qi Yuan asked with a grin.
Wu Kui lowered his head in apprehension and said, "If Your Excellency agrees to make peace, your subjects will belong to you, and the primordial realm will belong to my lord.
Once the princess completely devours the Heavenly Dao in the Pillar of Heaven, then Your Excellency and others could leave the Mortal Heart Realm."
This time, the negotiation for peace was straightforward. The Great Holy Blood Sun wanted the primordial realm, and the primordial creatures could be given to Qi Yuan.
But she wouldn’t let Qi Yuan leave now because once Qi Yuan left this realm, he would be able to step into the Yang God realm.
So, she would have to wait until she had devoured the primordial realm before letting Qi Yuan go. However, whether she would truly let him go still remained uncertain.
"Your sincerity is lacking," Qi Yuan shook his head, "Both the people and the land... I want them all."
Wu Kui’s body trembled slightly. "Your Excellency, isn’t this a bit too overbearing?"
Outside the Mortal Heart Realm, there were two Yang Gods overseeing the area.
Even though Qi Yuan was imbued with a mysterious background in his previous life, now he’s stuck at the seven steps to transcendence, unable to ascend to the realm of legends.
"My demands are not high at all," Qi Yuan said.
His mission, after all, is to protect Qing Shui Village.
How could he abdicate his duties?
More importantly, he is already engaged in a battle with the Evil God.
He has already slain so many followers of the Evil God.
He didn’t believe that the Evil God would be so kind-hearted as to forgive him.
Qi Yuan considered himself a gentleman. However, even if he was a gentleman, he couldn’t forgive the Heishan Sect’s oppression and sinister conspiracies against him. Instead, he boldly unsheathed his blade and annihilated the Heishan Sect.
The Evil God is not a gentleman. Its mind is undoubtedly narrow. He had killed so many followers of the Evil God. Now, they’re surely planning revenge while pretending to be friendly.
"In war, envoys are not to be harmed. You can go back and tell that to your master.
As for the terms of the truce, it would be acceptable to grant them the territory of the Fanxin world. I do have a condition, however," Qi Yuan said lightly.
Upon hearing his words, Wu Kui thought Qi Yuan was relenting.
Earlier, when he claimed that both land and people must be surrendered to him, he did it only to scare Wu Kui.
Just like opening a window by threatening to teeter the roof.
Qi Yuan was just bargaining for more benefits.
"Please state your conditions, Heavenly Venerable. I will certainly convey them truthfully to my lord!"
"Your lord, as well as all the followers of the Evil Gods, must apologize to me, soothe my wounded soul, and then commit mass suicide as an act of repentance.
If all of you are dead, I can give the Fanxin realm to you as your graveyard.
In this way... the land would be yours, and the people would be mine. Is that reasonable?"
Qi Yuan believed that he was a genius.
He quickly thought of a solution acceptable to both parties that also spared him any worry about potential backlashes.
Cold sweat broke out on Wu Kui’s forehead.
Mass suicide as repentance?
Qi Yuan really was bold in his assumptions!
This was not negotiation. This was sheer provocation!
But even so, he dared not refute, let alone curse. He could only struggle to say, "I will convey your words to my lord."
With a smile on his face, Qi Yuan said, "No wonder a wise man once said, ’plans are made through discussions.’
This plan is perfect. Go quickly and tell your lord exactly what I said.
They must be very excited at this moment.
Upon hearing my perfect plan, they won’t be able to help but applaud."
Seeing this, Wu Kui, the general, dared not say another word. He squeezed out a smile, bid farewell, and left in silence.
He dared not stay here any longer.
At the side, Qi Qi stepped forward and said with a confused look, "Godfather, why didn’t you agree to their truce demands first to buy some time?"
To Qi Qi, what everyone in the Fanxin realm lacked the most was time.
Given enough time, the four thousand Yin Gods under Qi Yuan could grow into a terrifying force.
At that time, they would be more assured when turning against the Evil God.
"Why should I pretend to agree? Haven’t I put forward a condition?" Qi Yuan said seriously.
He had already proposed a new set of terms for peace, which was quite comprehensive.
Hearing his words, Qi Qi was speechless.
This is a condition?
Who negotiates like this?
"Godfather, the conditions you proposed, they will certainly not agree to."
"The Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Dao forty-nine, short of one...
Nothing in the world is absolute. What if, their lord accepted my peace proposal after being kicked by a donkey?
As an ancient saying goes, ’Avoid doing a small amount of good because it’s insignificant, or doing a little evil because it seems harmless’. So, no matter how small the probability, we cannot give up. Because what if...?" Qi Yuan said earnestly.
Ever since he contemplated the Three Purities, he had felt more agile and his speech more logical.
Every time he opened his mouth, he was able to discuss profound truths.
Qi Qi was silent, unable to find words to say.
The Evil God’s dispatch of an envoy to negotiate a truce quickly spread throughout Feiwu City.
The content of the conversation between Qi Yuan and the Evil God’s military lieutenant also circulated, reaching many common citizens and cultivators.
The thoughts of these people varied.
"The plan for ascension we’ve been striving for is nothing compared to the slight chance that the Evil God would agree to the truce terms."
"If the Heavenly Venerable agrees, tens of millions of people in the Fanxin world could survive."
"And with the ascension plan... how many people could actually survive?"
The man who had watched Erlang God’s Shizhong Mountain twice, was not surprised by Qi Yuan’s response.
"A Heavenly Venerable who refuses is the real Heavenly Venerable!"
At this time, the headless spirit bell was dignifiedly standing with his double eyes wide open on his chest.
A complex array of emotions flickered in his eyes.
About a hundred breaths of time passed, and the spirit bell was still standing there.
He looked at Qi Yuan and slowly said, "Heavenly Venerable... when the pillar of heaven still stood, the hunger-free mother once said that in the future, if there is someone who can save the Fanxin world, he must be given this."
Qi Yuan, who was resting with his eyes closed, opened them. He appeared slightly surprised.
He remembered Wu Shi, who was sleeping curled up with a large fish by the edge of a pond, and the weird and complex gaze of the hunger-free mother under the pillar of heaven he had seen.
A specially made storage bag appeared in front of Qi Yuan.
With a touch of nostalgia and curiosity, Qi Yuan opened the storage bag.
Immediately... a faint fragrance wafted out.
In the storage bag... there were various kinds of fish, spicy, grilled, pickled, etc.
These dishes looked like the ones he made the second time he saw her.
She... didn’t eat them?
He couldn’t help but remember Wu Shi by the pond, holding a half-eaten fish asking him.
"You... want some?"
