Chapter 1617: 1059 Support from the Queen Mother (Requesting Monthly Tickets)
Jiang Chen’s voice was calm and steady, carrying a power that soothed hearts as he laid everything out. free𝑤ebnovel.com
Things had reached this point; he no longer needed to hide or hold back. Whatever thoughts he had, he might as well speak them directly. It would also allow the wavering Great Divine Transcendents to be prepared in advance and make their decisions sooner.
This Quantitative Calamity was unlike any before. As long as one was within the Chaos World, there was no way to avoid it; one had to face the great calamity regardless.
Since it was unavoidable, it was certainly time to pick sides—whether to help Jiang Chen or to help the group of Great Divine Transcendents from Dongsheng Divine Continent, one needed to plan early.
By speaking out now, Jiang Chen was essentially telling the Great Divine Transcendents between Heaven and Earth that there wasn’t much time left for hesitation; they needed to make a decision soon.
The crowd did not struggle with the issue of which side to join. Such major decisions could not be made in a short time. Thus, they continued talking about the matter of southern Kunlun:
"Star Lord, having said this, we roughly understand your meaning."
"No matter what, remaking the Chaos World is a beneficial act for all beings, and even we, the Great Divine Transcendents, will reap benefits."
"But there is no free lunch in this world. Since we will gain benefits, there must be a price to pay. Now that the Qilin Clan has moved southern Kunlun, this is the price we must pay."
"Only by paying such a price, after the Chaos World is remade, can we unconditionally enjoy the benefits brought by its recreation."
"But if no price is paid, once the Chaos World is remade, the new Heaven and Earth would not have a place for us."
"I think, what Star Lord means is probably just that!"
They were all clever people; Jiang Chen’s words did not need to be spelled out too clearly. Just starting the topic was enough for everyone to guess what he meant to convey.
"Indeed!"
Jiang Chen nodded, acknowledging this. The Great Divine Transcendents had figured it out themselves, which saved him some breath.
"At first glance, Star Lord’s words seem unproblematic. But upon closer consideration, one can find loopholes in the words."
"Everything the Star Lord has said is based on the premise that remaking the Chaos World succeeds. Only then would we need to pay a price."
"But what if the remaking of the Chaos World fails? Do we still need to pay a price?"
"In the end, Star Lord’s words all boil down to the same point, which is to force us to choose sides early, betting all our assets on you."
A Great Divine Transcendent laughed, directly pointing out Jiang Chen’s intentions.
According to Jiang Chen’s words, as long as they agreed to Jiang Chen’s terms and watched the Qilin Clan move southern Kunlun, it was tantamount to making an early investment in Jiang Chen.
This method, perceived by other Great Divine Transcendents, was undoubtedly them betting on Jiang Chen early, standing with him in the coming Quantitative Calamity, choosing his plan to remake the Chaos World.
It must be said, Jiang Chen’s calculation was indeed exquisite.
"Fellow Daoists, considering my strength, do you think there’s a possibility of failure in the plan to remake the Chaos World?"
Pointed out his inner thoughts, Jiang Chen was not angry but instead retorted. He had strong confidence in himself and didn’t believe his plan could fail.
And unyielding confidence was a prerequisite for success.
"Who can say for sure with such matters?"
"Star Lord has confidence, but do the comrades from Dongsheng Divine Continent lack confidence?"
"From what I see, their confidence outweighs Star Lord’s. After all, to create the Immortal World, they have prepared for millions of years, whereas Star Lord, at most, has only prepared for a hundred years."
A Great Divine Transcendent shook their head, as if to say Jiang Chen was being overly confident.
"Success in such matters does not necessarily come from long preparation; it also depends on the right timing, geographical advantage, and human harmony."
"And in the matter of remaking the Chaos World, having the right timing, geographical advantage, and human harmony—all are undoubtedly accounted for."
"Firstly, timing: remaking the Chaos World is not only my wish but also the wish of the Heavenly Dao. Receiving the assistance of the Heavenly Dao undoubtedly means having the right timing."
"Geographical advantage is even simpler; the materials for remaking the Chaos are all present on-site, it just takes reassembling the fragmented Chaos World."
"The comrades of Dongsheng Divine Continent, after laborious planning for millions of years, have just turned Dongsheng Divine Continent into a paradise. But essentially, isn’t it still a part of the Chaos World?"
"Human harmony does not need much explanation."
"Even if the creation of the Immortal World is successful, how many will benefit? But remaking the Chaos World allows everyone to benefit."
"Is this not encompassing human harmony?"
"That’s why I say, the plan to remake the Chaos World will surely succeed. I can’t see how it would fail, given so many advantages!"
As this concerned the future of the Chaos World, it was normal to have disputes. Jiang Chen was not angry but simply stated facts and reasoned, trying to convince everyone.
"Star Lord indeed has a point, but can such a significant matter be decided in a moment’s discussion? How about giving us some time to think it over?"
Jiang Chen had no intention of falling out with these Great Divine Transcendents, and they did not intend to fall out with him either, but letting them make up their minds so easily was also impossible.
Therefore, they adopted a delaying tactic, waiting to see how the situation in the Chaos World unfolds before making a decision.
