Chapter 1606: One thousand fifty-three Jiang Chui_2
"It’s no exaggeration to say that this is the first and foremost open plot in the Prehistoric World."
"The importance of the Primordial Chaos Elixir is immense, the higher the cultivation, the more one cannot do without it, and for a power to develop, it is even more indispensable."
"It can even be said that as long as there is a sufficient quantity of Primordial Chaos Elixirs, they are even more useful than an Innate Treasure."
"Such a precious pill, Jiang Chen publicly disclosed it without any cost, allowing all beings between Heaven and Earth to use it unconditionally."
"At first glance, who would not admire Jiang Chen’s character? Who would not praise his selflessness? However, upon deeper contemplation, one can see the depth of Jiang Chen’s calculations; this act can be called the greatest open plot of ancient and modern times."
"Heavenly Dao is fair; it is impossible for nothing to be given when Jiang Chen claims to want nothing. Whoever has used the Primordial Chaos Elixir, regardless of good or evil, will owe Jiang Chen a debt of karma invisibly."
"The more Primordial Chaos Elixirs one uses, the greater the debt of karma. And all karma must be repaid."
"Now, the Primordial Chaos Elixir is still circulating among the upper echelons, and no significant impact is seen yet. But as time goes by, sooner or later, the Primordial Chaos Elixir will be widespread between Heaven and Earth, and all cultivators will use it."
"When that time comes, all cultivators between Heaven and Earth will have benefited from Jiang Chen’s favor, such a scenario is simply terrifying to contemplate."
"Under such circumstances, what can Jiang Chen not achieve? He would be like the Taoist Ancestors, with no one between Heaven and Earth able to defy his will."
"This is truly the highest level of wisdom, knowing well that it’s a calculation, but even as the enemy, one cannot help but be ensnared."
Whenever the topic of Jiang Chen comes up, the Qilin Clan’s mythical being can’t stop singing his praises, elevating him to an extreme degree, almost hailing Jiang Chen as the foremost in wisdom within the Prehistoric World."
However, one point the mythical being did not get wrong is that Jiang Chen is one of the rare wise men in the Prehistoric World, a claim that only came to be recognized among the Great Divine Transcendents after he developed the Primordial Chaos Elixir.
In other words, Jiang Chen’s wisdom has been verified by the majority of the great divine transcendents in the Prehistoric World, and there is no falsehood in this.
"The Star Lord is really incredible, indeed, only a person with such transcendent wisdom could rise up in such a short period of time and become one of the most eminent figures between Heaven and Earth."
The leader of the Qilin Clan was in complete agreement with the mythical being’s words, expressing deep admiration for Jiang Chen after hearing the narration, acknowledging that Jiang Chen’s transcendent wisdom played a significant role in his current achievements.
"The Star Lord is a person of high wisdom and deep calculations, and his strength is formidable as well; we cannot afford to be his enemy unless it’s absolutely necessary."
"Moreover, having such an existence as an ally is definitely preferable to having him as an enemy. Therefore, we must not overlook his proposal."
After speaking of the fearsomeness of Jiang Chen, the mythical being finally started discussing serious matters.
"The elder speaks wisely, it is indeed not advisable to be enemies with an existence like the Star Lord. So, according to the elder, do we agree to the Star Lord’s proposal?"
The leader of the Qilin Clan nodded and responded, entirely dependent on the elder’s decision.
"I am only analyzing for you, I do not intend to decide on your behalf. Now, you are the leader of the Qilin Clan, the future of the Qilin Clan is in your hands; it’s your decision on how to develop it."
"If I have to decide everything for you, what do we need you as the clan leader for?"
"Moreover, with my current situation being no different from that of a prisoner, unable to leave the depths of the earth, I can’t contribute much to the development of the Qilin Clan."
"If the Qilin Clan wants to develop, it ultimately depends on you. If it still relies on an old thing like me, then there truly is no future."
When the leader of the Qilin Clan heard these words, far from being consoled, the mythical being instead rebuked him.
Having become a mythical being, he had indeed become much more powerful; however, he paid a price for it, losing his freedom completely. That is why he passed down the position of clan leader. Because he knew that without freedom, he was no longer capable of leading the rise of the Qilin Clan.
The Qilin Clan needed a new leader!
Unfortunately, the successor in whom he had placed great hopes disappointed him. Not only did he fail to lead the rise of the Qilin Clan, but he actually left the Qilin Clan in a difficult situation, trapped on a small piece of territory, unable to expand outward.
"The elder is right!"
The leader of the Qilin Clan felt ashamed. The Qilin Clan, once the overlord of Heaven and Earth, has now declined to the point where they need to rely on the elder’s reputation for protection, to barely scrape by. Although there are various factors, as the clan leader, he indeed bears inescapable responsibility.
"Whether to agree to Star Lord’s proposal is not about the person of Star Lord himself, but what his proposal brings to us. After agreeing, what will we gain and what will we lose?"
"It is by considering these joints that we can weigh the pros and cons and make the most advantageous choice for us."
Despite being somewhat disappointed, the sacred beast Qilin still analyzed for the clan leader.
The Qilin Clan has truly fallen; not even one descendant capable of taking on the mantle can be found, and this is the most terrifying aspect. For a powerful force, a temporary setback is nothing; but the absence of a qualified successor is truly fatal.
If the new generation proves incompetent, then the decline of this power is inevitable. The Qilin Clan is now in a state of lacking successors, and their weakness is nearly visible to the naked eye.
Although the Dragon and Phoenix clans have temporarily lost their footing, they are not like the Qilin Clan, which has no successors. Be it Ancestral Dragon or Ancestral Feng, they both have exceptional successors.
"By agreeing to the Star Lord’s proposal, our Qilin Clan could escape our current predicament and gain the full support of the Human Race and the other four clans."
"The price we have to pay, however, is to offend the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign to death."
After being reprimanded by the sacred beast Qilin, the clan leader of the Qilin Clan finally displayed the attitude that a clan leader should have and seriously analyzed the advantages and disadvantages.
"So, how should we choose?" the sacred beast Qilin asked.
"We have no choice. If we don’t want to be consumed by the Mystic Sect, we can only agree to the Star Lord’s proposal. If we agree, we still have a fighting chance. If we don’t, then we truly can only wait for death."
After serious analysis, the clan leader of the Qilin Clan responded with a bitter face, realizing they had no options left.
"If you already know the outcome in your heart, why bother asking me?"
The voice of the sacred beast Qilin became more and more distant. By the time the Qilin Clan leader looked up, he found that the sacred beast Qilin had disappeared without a trace at some unknown point.
"Sigh!"
With a long sigh, the clan leader of the Qilin Clan also left the place. He had understood the intention of the sacred beast Qilin; they truly had no choice. If so, why bother to go through the motions of asking him? It was nothing but a waste of time.
The Qilin Clan acted swiftly, making up their minds without hesitation. The clan leader immediately ordered his people to pack their luggage and prepare to move.
"Now that the Quantitative Calamity is imminent, in order to contend with the great calamity, I wish to relocate from our lands and integrate with the Nine States to aid and support the Human Race."
"Issue the command, all clansmen must immediately begin packing their luggage. Three days from now, I will relocate our lands to the Nine States."
Others might have options and could delay. But the Qilin Clan had none, hence they couldn’t delay and naturally had to act as quickly as possible.
According to Jiang Chen’s thoughts, they should first integrate with the lands of the Dragon and Phoenix clans. But even he didn’t expect the Qilin Clan’s actions to be so swift, acting without hesitation.
...
...
"The atmosphere in the Prehistoric World seems off, as if something big has happened."
In the outer Chaos, at the Jade Void Holy Land, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, who was in contemplation, suddenly sensed something and abruptly opened his eyes, his face full of surprise and doubt as he looked towards the Three Realms.
For some reason, he suddenly had a bad feeling, as if something unpleasant was going to happen to him.
In the past, this kind of feeling rarely occurred to him. However, since Jiang Chen’s appearance, this feeling would arise every now and then.
