Sheng Fu

Chapter 1039 The Outline Gradually Becomes Clear
Guangli was speechless. She knew that she was the weakest of the five monarchs, but Yuwen Jun had deliberately reminded her of this many times in front of her.

"You mean there are members of the Demon Realm within the Purple Gold Alliance?" Guangli asked suspiciously.

Yuwen Jun pondered, "Besides the Netherworld Spider, what other races can cultivate Netherworld True Essence?"

Although the demon race's civilization system is scattered like sand, it has a long history.

Some powerful races perished in the Primordial War or the Ancient War.

However, with the appearance of the ancient race, the Nether Spider, in the Chaos Space, Yuwen Jun had reason to believe that there must be other ancient alien species, or even primordial alien species, within the Chaos Space.

Overthrowing the internal affairs of the human race is a feat that the Purple Gold Alliance cannot accomplish overnight.

However, there is still an opportunity to take advantage of the current state of the demon realm, which is in ruins.

Guangli was also awakened by Yuwen Jun's words.

"Indeed, there is an ancient race that can cultivate Netherworld True Essence."

"The Heavenly Python can cultivate Netherworld True Essence."

"In ancient times, the Heavenly Tiger Clan and the Heavenly Nether Python Clan fought many battles for the throne. At first, the Heavenly Tiger Clan was at a disadvantage and was suppressed by the Heavenly Nether Python Clan in every way."

"Fortunately, a peerless expert emerged from the Tianhu lineage, who engaged in a final battle with the Tianming Giant Python clan on the Spring and Autumn Plains and utterly defeated the Tianming Giant Python."

"Afterwards, a hundred-year-long hunt was launched against the Heavenly Serpent clan, which finally led to their complete extinction."

It involves an ancient race from the Primordial Era, which Yuwen Jun really didn't know anything about.

The book "Qingming Chronicles" that I read back then did not contain any record of the Heavenly Nether Python clan. However, since this was a secret of the demon race, it was naturally not allowed to be known by outsiders.

Guangli's beautiful eyes suddenly widened.

“So…” Guangli looked at Yuwen Jun with surprise and uncertainty.

The latter nodded, his expression somewhat solemn.

"The historical context is gradually becoming clearer," Yuwen Jun said with a smug smile.

"In the ancient war, although the demon race did not achieve great results, it was not fundamentally damaged either. In addition, the ancestor of the Heavenly Tiger Clan personally took charge of the overall situation, and the royal family's strength was still at its peak. Therefore, there was no opportunity for the Heavenly Nether Giant Python Clan to take advantage of the situation," Guangli said with lingering fear.

Yuwen Jun nodded and said, "In this great era of contention, the human race and the spirit race were the first to put aside their historical hatred and form an alliance. Under their heavy blows, the demon realm was shattered."

"Then you successfully ascended the throne, changed your stance, and made an alliance with the human race and the spirit race."

"The Heavenly Python lineage still has no obvious opportunities."

"However, the implementation of the new policies has forced factional strife and the struggle between the wealthy and the poor to emerge within the human race."

"The various forces are secretly vying for power, causing many of the strongest individuals to be in opposition to each other."

"In comparison, the Demon Realm naturally becomes empty."

"The human race is too busy to even take care of its own affairs, so naturally it has no time to attend to the demon realm."

"This is naturally an opportunity for the Heavenly Python clan."

"I just don't know how many descendants of this ancient race still exist in the world today."

After belatedly realizing this, Guangli's emotions fluctuated, and she truthfully said, "I will indeed become bait. If I encounter the Heavenly Nether Python, which is also at the Limitless Realm, I may not be its match."

"Therefore, we need another helper."

"This helper can only be the Human Emperor or the Spirit Emperor."

Yuwen Jun paced back and forth, his thoughts gradually becoming clearer. The next step was to figure out how to devise a plan to successfully lure the Heavenly Nether Python clan into a trap. However, there were also many aspects that gave Yuwen Jun a headache.

In ancient times, the Tianhu clan hunted down the Tianming Giant Python lineage for hundreds of years, resulting in its nominal extermination.

If there are indeed survivors, there is only one possibility: the Heavenly Serpent clan must have a powerful backer protecting them.

As for their backers, whether they are humans, gods, demons, or even spirits, it's hard to say.

However, based on the indications, the Protoss are the most likely candidate.

At the beginning of Yuwen Jun's conquest of the Divine Realm, the Divine Race and the Demon Race formed a brief alliance.

Even the gods at that time wanted to use the remaining power of the demon realm to wear down Yue Bo's army.

Since the Purple Gold Alliance is opposed to His Majesty the Human Emperor, it naturally becomes very close to the Heavenly Nether Python Clan.

As Yuwen Jun thought about these things, his brows gradually furrowed.

"The situation is far more complicated than we imagined," Yuwen Jun said thoughtfully.

Guangli gradually came to her senses at this moment.

"Now it's even more difficult to make a move," Guangli pondered.

Upon hearing this, Yuwen Jun's face flashed with a hint of worry, but then he inexplicably chuckled and said, "But that's precisely the fun of this great contest."

"If I hadn't been tinkering with new policies in the Divine Realm, I might not have uncovered so many historical threads."

"The new policies are intended to fundamentally reshape the world."

"This can be considered an unexpected stroke of genius."

"Otherwise, we might remain completely in the dark about that insidious Divine Emperor."

Upon hearing this, Guangli couldn't help but ask, "Didn't the Human Emperor and the Spirit Emperor have any powerful backup plans? Why is the Divine Emperor able to have sole control over this matter?"

Yuwen Jun let out a long breath and chuckled, "The Human Emperor and the Spirit Emperor are relatively young, and their cultivation is slightly inferior to yours."

"Moreover, after the ancient war ended, the human race was busy recuperating and balancing the various forces."

"The Eldar are the same, which is why the political systems of the two races have many similarities."

"The Demon Lord, however, possesses extraordinary talent and can gaze upon the myriad realms."

"That ancient being from the Demon Realm is also thinking about how to enter the Myriad Realms and how to collect the Origin Chips."

"In retrospect, only the God Emperor would have the leisure to go through all this trouble."

"Furthermore, the Heavenly Nether Python clan is an ancient race. If there are any survivors among the Heavenly Nether Pythons, it means that the connection between this race and the God race has been passed down from the ancient times to the present."

"No one has a visionary perspective than the emperors of all dynasties."

"Whether it was the ancient war or the ancient war, neither of them could unify the world."

"And this great struggle presents the best opportunity to unify the world."

"At least the Demon Lord has a great chance. As long as the Demon Lord enters the Half-Step Myriad Realms, he can completely dominate the top spot."

"I never expected that this new policy would catch so many big fish. No wonder His Majesty the Emperor has given me unlimited power."

"The struggle has never stopped; it has just been tiring and has been resting for many years."

At this moment, both Yuwen Jun and Guang Li realized one thing: if the new policies were truly implemented thoroughly within the human realm, it would rewrite the landscape of this great era of contention.

In any conflict, there will be many adjustments to be made, and an occasional, unintentional adjustment can open up a new situation.

Like warriors fighting, whoever's spirit suddenly surges or completely stabilizes will naturally have a greater chance of winning.

Caught off guard, Guangli bowed deeply to Yuwen Jun, clasped her hands in prayer, and said, "I am foolish and ignorant. The situation will be difficult in the future. I hope Your Highness can give me some guidance."

"I am willing to devote myself entirely to Your Highness and serve you like a dog or a horse."
