Chapter 281: Eternal East
Under the persuasion of Venerable Fuhu, Long Yi and the Western Emperor reluctantly joined in the mediation.
But in reality, both Long Yi and the Western Emperor were just going through the motions and not putting in much effort.
Venerable Fuhu could see that neither of them were really doing much, but he angrily questioned them, and they each had their own explanations.
Long Yi claimed that his injuries hadn't fully healed yet, so he had already done his best.
The Western Emperor said that she couldn't go all out and had to leave room to guard against the three human races conspiring to harm her and the Black Emperor.
So, in reality, only Venerable Fuhu was doing the actual work.
Venerable Fuhu's state of mind was a bit unstable, and he couldn't help but roar, "Do you really not care about the war between the two races?"
Venerable Fuhu suddenly realized that among the five powerhouses present, he was the only one who truly didn't want to start a war.
Once the human and sea races went to war, the Western State was destined to fall.
This was recorded in history.
When the human and sea races clashed, the initiative would always be in the hands of the sea race.
If the sea race couldn't win, they could retreat into the sea, and it would be difficult for the human race to pursue them into the deep sea.
In the vast and endless sea, even the Celestial Beings at the peak of human cultivation wouldn't dare to act recklessly.
It could be said that the sea race stood in an invincible position by nature.
The reason why the sea race was wary of a war with the human race was because they feared the human race's growth speed.
Normal humans could achieve Foundation Building within forty years of cultivation, while it would generally take two to three hundred years for ordinary Monster Race members to reach a corresponding level of strength.
If humans continued to cultivate for another two hundred years, they could cultivate a Divine Soul, while the Monster Race would probably need seven to eight hundred years.
Each realm required the Monster Race to spend more time to reach, although the Monster Race had a long lifespan. If they continued to fight like this, no one knew what the future result would be.
The Sea Monster Race also didn't care about human territory and had no need to fight to the death. This ultimately led to the current situation.
But once the war started, the four continents outside of the Central State would basically be doomed to fall.
Compared to that, the four continents were too small, surrounded by the sea on all sides. Although they were considered land, they were no different from isolated islands.
Once caught in a pincer attack by the sea race, there would be no escape.
Venerable Fuhu was certainly not the kind of person who cared for the world and loved the people. He was purely acting in the interests of the White Tiger Sect.
The current generation's Saintess of the White Tiger Sect was an extremely rare genius, possessing the Innate Golden Spirit Sacred Body.
The so-called Innate Five Elements Sacred Body meant that after birth, the Innate Qi would not dissipate and would continue to grow.
This was similar to the effect brought about by Zhang Chi's Innate Breathing Technique, except Zhang Chi achieved it after birth, while she was born with it.
In addition, she also mastered the innate Divine Ability, the Spirit of the White Tiger, and had a companion spirit, the Tiger Guardian.
Such a person was like an immortal banished from the heavens.
Despite Venerable Fuhu being a senior figure in the White Tiger Sect, he showed great respect to the Saintess.
If the Saintess grew up normally, she would definitely become a Celestial Being in the future. At that time, with one person achieving the Dao, even chickens and dogs would ascend to heaven.
Therefore, anything that could potentially affect the growth of the Saintess would be eliminated by the White Tiger Sect without hesitation.
As long as they protected the Saintess, becoming the number one power in the Western State was within easy reach.
Venerable Fuhu and his good brother, Venerable Huli, were already studying the opponents in the Central State.
In short, the Western State couldn't descend into chaos yet.
But Ao Mo and Miao Renlong's battle was evenly matched and difficult to resolve. Venerable Fuhu rushed over and was hit twice by the tentacles, and his face was covered in green light from the spread of the poisonous insects.
Only Venerable Fuhu was injured in the battle.
Venerable Fuhu also had a temper. The people of the White Tiger Sect were friends with tigers every day. How could they be good-natured people?
Venerable Fuhu just didn't want to take action.
But the injuries caused by the two tentacles were too severe, and now he was angry.
When a tiger doesn't show its might, you treat me as a sick cat?
Damn it, let's fight together!
"White Tiger Diamond Fist!"
This punch was aimed at Miao Renlong.
Miao Renlong couldn't withstand the attacks of two people. Even the defense of the Golden Cicada couldn't hold up, and he was sent flying. Ao Mo wanted to take advantage of the situation to kill Miao Renlong, but Venerable Fuhu, like a fierce tiger, pounced and suppressed Ao Mo.
"Another crazy one."
In Miao Yin's courtyard, Cai Yu commented enthusiastically.
It was also protecting Zhang Chi, but it had nothing to do and took the opportunity to look around. It happened to see the great battle in Dragon City.
Cai Yu had sharp eyesight, and its gaze was enough to see through layers of mist. Although the battle between Dao Integration experts had obscured the sky with a hazy fog, it couldn't escape Cai Yu's observation.
Long Yan and Cai Yu had some acquaintance, so when it suddenly spoke like this, Long Yan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Who went crazy?"
"Over there!" Cai Yu pointed with its wings and said, "There are a few people fighting over there, and they're quite powerful, but they're a bit crazy."
Cai Yu pretended to be calm as it made its evaluation, but in fact, it was looking forward to Long Yan's shock.
Hey, praise me for being amazing!
However, Long Yan didn't do that. Instead, she gathered her spiritual power and used the Dragon Transformation technique to look at the sky above Dragon City.
Her eyes emitted a golden light, and she could barely see the situation on the battlefield.
But when she saw her father there, Long Yan immediately became anxious.
"Oh no, my father's injuries haven't healed yet. How can he go to such a dangerous place?"
"You don't have to worry too much. It looks like he hasn't put in much effort."
Long Yan: "......"
It seems so.
Her father's scheming is too obvious.
Miao Yin saw them discussing and suddenly felt isolated.
Although she has reached the Divine Ability Realm, she does not possess the secret technique of long-distance observation.
If she were to use her divine sense to sense, it would be no different from seeking death.
There's no need to say what level of battle Long Yan's father is involved in.
Her divine sense simply cannot pass through.
Everyone, including the bird, can enjoy the show, except for her. Of course, Miao Yin is unhappy.
Cai Yu tilted her head and looked at her, arrogantly saying, "If you beg me, I can show you too."
Miao Yin is Zhang Chi's friend. With their close relationship, Zhang Chi's friends are also her friends.
So, if a friend asks to share her vision, she will definitely agree.
But Miao Yin doesn't know Cai Yu's personality and thinks that Cai Yu is helping Long Yan humiliate her.
"Hmph, I'm not begging you. If you don't want to show me, then don't."
Cai Yu: "......"
If she doesn't want to beg, then she doesn't have to. She'll suggest to Zhang Chi later not to be friends with such an ugly and petty woman. Hmph!
Cai Yu also turned her head and focused on watching the battle scene.
With the addition of Fu Hu, the battle became even more chaotic.
As the Western Emperor's gaze swept around, a hidden killing intent emerged.
She has two targets she can kill. One is Miao Renlong. If she kills him, the person who takes the blame will die, and this matter will be over.
As for the grudges between the Western State Alliance and the Black Emperor's Palace, it has nothing to do with her.
Killing the Black Emperor is also an option. The grudge can be attributed to the human race, and the powerful figures behind the Black Emperor won't trouble her. As for Ao Long's matter, no one will care about it anymore.
No matter who she kills, it will be a good outcome for her after changing her mindset.
After changing her mindset, the Western Emperor's focus while taking advantage of the chaos was different.
She was waiting for an opportunity. As long as a flaw appeared, she could make her move.
The Western Emperor was not in a hurry. Aomo and Miao Renlong were both very angry now, and the battle would not end in a short time.
In this way, the Western Emperor waited from dusk until dawn. When the first ray of morning light broke through the night sky, the Western Emperor finally found an opportunity.
After a night of intense battle, Aomo and Miao Renlong were both extremely exhausted. They were now relying on their anger and hatred to sustain themselves. It was at this moment that the Black Emperor from the deep sea, who didn't particularly like the brightness of dawn, instinctively squinted his eyes.
In this extremely short moment, he revealed a flaw.
The Western Emperor's illusion technique was also activated at this moment, creating an illusion for the Black Emperor. At this moment, what he saw was not the real situation. It was also at this moment that Miao Renlong unleashed a Heart-Devouring Gu.
The Heart-devouring Gu is a highly lethal insect found in the Ten Thousand Spirit Cave. It is extremely poisonous, and if bitten, the heart will begin to ache, as if being gnawed by insects, hence its name.
There is also a similar effect with the Heart-eating Worm, but compared to the Heart-devouring Gu, the Heart-eating Worm takes much longer to take effect, giving cultivators enough time to kill the worm.
What makes the Heart-devouring Gu formidable is its toxin, which activates upon contact with blood, making it even more dangerous.
If Black Emperor cannot withstand this attack, he will undoubtedly die.
At this moment, Long Yi is still idling around, while Fuhu, exhausted from fighting all night, is unaware that Black Emperor cannot withstand this Gu and does not help him defend against it.
Just as Black Emperor is about to perish, a streak of light suddenly breaks through the air at an extremely fast speed, hitting the Heart-devouring Gu directly and causing it to explode.
Black Emperor only momentarily loses focus, not even realizing that he was ambushed, thinking that he just blinked his eyes.
Western Emperor secretly resents this and looks towards the direction where the streak of light came from.
In the blink of an eye, three figures appear on the horizon, quickly revealing their forms.
All three of them are dressed in luxurious clothing, but the man in the middle is the youngest and his attire is more extravagant. The two middle-aged men on either side appear to be guards, but both of them are at the Dao Integration Realm.
"Fellow Daoist Shenfeng, Fellow Daoist Chenguang, you have finally arrived," Fuhu says, finally relieved upon seeing the newcomers.
These two people were specifically summoned by him.
When Fuhu realized that Long Yi and Western Emperor were idling around, he knew that he couldn't handle it alone and had to call for reinforcements.
However, Fuhu's observation only revealed two Dao Integration cultivators, so when he arrived, the other one had to stay behind to guard the sect.
Helpless, Fuhu had no choice but to send a message to the Eastern Emperor Palace.
Unexpectedly, the Eastern Emperor Palace sent two Dao Integration cultivators immediately.
The one in the middle is also quite extraordinary, being none other than the Crown Prince of the Eastern Emperor Palace, Dongfang Changqing.
"Changqing pays his respects to the seniors," Dongfang Changqing says respectfully. Although he is the Crown Prince of the Eastern Emperor Palace, his cultivation is still insufficient, so he must show the respect he should have in front of these seniors.
He is polite, and the others dare not be negligent.
Fuhu nods friendly, and Miao Renlong temporarily suppresses his anger.
Only Black Emperor, facing the two Dao Integration powerhouses beside Dongfang Changqing, has no intention of giving them any face.
"Are you also planning to stop me from seeking revenge?" he asks, questioning them, which inevitably displeases them.
However, Dongfang Changqing remains unfazed and calmly says, "Do you only have revenge in your heart, senior? Have you forgotten that your daughter is still alive?"
In Fuhu's message, he described the whole incident in detail, allowing Dongfang Changqing to use a single sentence to bring Ao Mo, who was in a rage, back to his senses.
That's right, he came to find Ao Long!
