I am Xiao Sheng

Chapter 1473 The war breaks out

Chapter 1453 The Flames of War Erupt
Upon hearing Xiao Sheng's words, both the Dark King and the Ten Directions Daoist were greatly alarmed. This vengeful spirit was denying the difference in their mental states, even denying the connection between them. However, upon closer reflection, their hearts grew heavy. Indeed, they were originally one; how could their minds be completely disconnected? They could communicate mentally, so there was likely a connection between their mental states as well. It was just that someone had deliberately shielded this connection, waiting to deliver a fatal blow at the crucial moment, plunging them into an abyss of no return!

"My Lord, if it weren't for your reminder, we wouldn't have thought about this issue carefully. We did make a very basic mistake. We can communicate with each other through our minds, but we didn't consider whether our minds could be connected. If everything is as you say, we were targeted from the very beginning. But I don't understand, who would value us so much and make such a scheme in the dark?" The Dark King sighed, a hint of unease and fear in his eyes, after all, this concerned their life and death!
Before Xiao Sheng could answer, the Ten Directions Daoist spoke first: "Who else could it be but the Chaos Dao? I can't think of anyone else with such power. And only he would do such a thing. After all, he knows the origin of the original body, so he naturally has to make all the preparations in advance. With his intentions on our side, he can deceive us all the way and deliver a fatal blow to us at the critical moment!"

At this moment, Xiao Sheng nodded and said, "That's right, it is the Great Dao of Chaos. In the entire Chaotic World, only he has such strength and such a reason. It's just a pity that he didn't expect all of this to happen so quickly, and that the Great God Pangu would make such an arrangement, allowing us to see through the problem behind it! However, all of this is nothing now. As long as we see through all of this, we will not be schemed against. But we still have to face the final battle. Once the flames of war are ignited, everything will lead to the ultimate battle. Let's see if the three thousand Chaotic Gods and Demons and the King of Chaotic Beasts have entered the game. What ability do we have to stay out of the final battle?"

"My Lord, are you planning to target Yang Mei and Shi Chen, to settle your karmic debts with them?" The Dark King's first thought was of Shi Chen and Yang Mei, after all, these two had incurred a great karmic debt with them, and had even used them as substitutes. If given the chance, the Dark King would naturally not let these two go!
"No, now is not the time to settle scores with them. Besides, do you think we need to fight these two just because of their scheming? To engage in a life-or-death battle with them in this environment, making ourselves a participant in the conflict? What good would that do us? To put ourselves in danger just to resolve karma, is it worth it?" Xiao Sheng said, turning his gaze to the Dark King, a hint of doubt in his eyes. In his view, the Dark King shouldn't be unaware of all this, so why was he saying such things? Could it be that the Dark King had been tricked again? If the Dark King had been ambushed, what would happen to the Ten Directions Daoist?
No, the Dark King hadn't been tricked; he simply couldn't accept the outcome. In his view, letting Yang Mei and Shi Chen go so easily was too weak. It was clearly these two who were plotting against them, yet he couldn't cause them any trouble. This was something he couldn't accept for the time being.

"Why? Why should we compromise? Even if it's not for the sake of cause and effect, but just for the sake of pride, we shouldn't let Yang Mei and Shi Duo'ai off so easily. After all, they plotted against us first, so it's perfectly reasonable for us to retaliate!" At this moment, the Dark King's voice rose, and his expression showed even more anger.

"There are no so many whys. Putting yourself in danger just for the sake of a moment is not a wise decision. Even if we want to deal with Shi Chen and Yang Mei, there is no need to rush. We still have plenty of time. At least the all-out war has not yet fully broken out. It's just that we don't have much time left!"

Yes, Xiao Sheng is right. They don't have much time left. If they can't resolve all the problems and crises quickly, endless destruction and death await them. This is the beginning of real danger. If they can't even do this much, what future can they talk about?

“Darkness, do you think Yang Mei and Shi Chen still possess the origins we need? They have already severed the origins of the Great Dao of Space and the Great Dao of Time. What benefit would we gain from targeting them? Since we can't get anything from them, why not let them go this time? We should focus our energy on those Chaos Beast Kings. As soon as these guys make a move, we'll catch them off guard, seize their origins, and carve a bloody path through them!”

In an instant, the Dark King and the Ten Directions Daoists understood Xiao Sheng's intention. Since Yang Mei and Shi Chen had nothing left to take, they naturally had to turn their attention to others. Those Chaos Beast Kings were the best targets, since devouring their origins would allow them to advance further in their cultivation!
"I understand, my lord. You're eyeing those Chaos Beast Kings, but even if we gain the approval of all living beings, do we have the ability to take them down? You should know that things have already spiraled out of control with them!"

Just as Xiao Sheng was talking with the Ten Directions Daoist and the Dark King, a roar rang out. Someone had finally made a move and charged towards the Chaos Battlefield. The terrifying power directly tore through all the disguises outside the Chaos Battlefield, exposing the situation inside the battlefield to everyone. When they saw all this, all the beings in the entire prehistoric world were shocked!

"Go, don't hesitate any longer, we don't have time anymore, let's go see the Twelve Ancestral Witches first!" Upon seeing all this, Xiao Sheng did not hesitate and directly tore open the void to go to the place where the Twelve Ancestral Witches were located. At the same time, the Dark King and the Ten Directions Daoist followed closely behind, also tearing open the void to go see the Twelve Ancestral Witches!
The moment the spatial fluctuations occurred, Houtu and the others were shocked. Fortunately, before they could make a move, Xiao Sheng's voice rang out: "Fellow Daoist Houtu, I am Xiao Sheng. I have something to discuss with you!"

As Xiao Sheng's voice fell, Houtu Ancestral Witch was finally relieved. The other Ancestral Witches also noticed the situation and quickly appeared in front of Xiao Sheng and the others. When they saw Xiao Sheng, the Dark King, and the Ten Directions Daoist, Dijiang Ancestral Witch and the others were shocked. They did not expect Xiao Sheng to appear here at this time!
What could possibly warrant such a joint confrontation between Xiao Sheng, the Dark King, and the Ten Directions Daoist? It was the great battle on the Chaos Battlefield. When someone exposes everything, regardless of their thoughts or schemes, they must confront the truth. The King of Chaos Beasts has already laid a trap to hunt down three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons. How could these three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons stand idly by? Even if some were indifferent, they now had to intervene. Otherwise, when they were besieged by the King of Chaos Beasts, no one would come to their aid. In short, all of this forced the three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons to reunite!
Upon witnessing this situation, the Gods and Demons of Destiny, Karma, Hongjun Daozu, and Demon Ancestor Luohou had no choice but to abandon their previous plans and join the great battle, as they all understood the gravity of the matter!
"Fellow Daoist Xiao Sheng, have you come for the Chaos Battlefield? Do you need our assistance?" A hint of frenzied battle intent flashed in the eyes of Ancestral Witch Dijiang. With things having developed to this point, he had no way out. Even if he had ideas, it was useless; once the great battle began, none of them could remain uninvolved! "No, I haven't come entirely for the Chaos Battlefield, but for your and humanity's survival. The upcoming great battle will bring forward the final battle of the Immeasurable Calamity. It's hard to say whether the Primordial World can withstand the impact of the power, or whether it will collapse. You currently lack minor worlds; if you remain in the Primordial World, you'll easily find yourself in dire straits. Why don't you bring your people together with humanity and enter humanity's minor worlds? This way, you can cooperate with each other and have a better chance of survival in this Immeasurable Calamity."

Upon hearing Xiao Sheng's words, Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, frowned and sighed, saying, "Fellow Daoist Xiao Sheng, we appreciate your kindness. Although we are willing to accept this proposal, we are afraid that the human race will not accept it. After all, there are many problems with such a meeting. We are not without options, since the Witch Clan's small world still exists!"

Xiao Sheng shook his head and said, "Fellow Daoist Houtu, it's too late. By the time you've finished negotiating with the Witch Clan, it will be too late. The great war has begun, and we must join in, or we will lose everything. It seems like this is a battle between the King of Chaos Beasts and three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons, but the real situation is far more dangerous. It's a battle between the King of Chaos Beasts and all living beings in Chaos. Do you think we still have time under these circumstances?"

"World Destruction? Are you worried that the King of Chaos Beasts will carry out a world-destroying act, and that the army of Chaos Beasts will sweep across the primordial world?" In an instant, the Ancestral Witch Houtu understood Xiao Sheng's concerns, and a hint of vigilance and unease appeared in her eyes!

“That’s right. If the King of Chaos Beasts sees the outbreak of the final battle, it would be perfectly normal for him to commit acts of world destruction. We will have to face everything. There is no way out for us. We will go to the human race together. I will persuade them to do everything. If we don’t take action and don’t prepare for the worst, then when the crisis comes, it will truly be a dead end!” Xiao Sheng was not exaggerating. He was considering the worst-case scenario, and this was the most likely thing to happen!
Time was of the essence. Both Houtu and Dijiang, the Ancestral Witches, understood that in the face of such a momentous event, they could no longer hesitate, for every second could determine the life or death of their people. Houtu nodded and said, "Very well, we entrust everything to Fellow Daoist Xiao Sheng. We will now gather the army!"

As soon as Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, finished speaking, Dijiang, the Ancestral Witch, immediately summoned his army, which, under their guidance, headed towards the human race's minor world. The movement of the Twelve Ancestral Witches was immediately sensed by the human race. Faced with such a dramatic change, they all felt a sense of unease and worry. Although the Twelve Ancestral Witches had no enmity with the human race, when their army approached, both the Human Emperor and the Goddess Nuwa were concerned about the Twelve Ancestral Witches' intentions!

Just as they were feeling uneasy, a voice rang out: "Is the Human Emperor here? I am Xiao Sheng, and I have something to discuss with you all. Please show yourself!" As Xiao Sheng's voice fell, the Twelve Ancestral Witches also stopped in their tracks. The army remained outside the human territory and did not launch an attack on the human minor world!
"It's Fellow Daoist Xiao Sheng. What brings him and the Twelve Ancestral Witches to our human race at this time?" Emperor Fuxi frowned. He had been uneasy since the flames of war broke out on the Chaos Battlefield, and now he couldn't understand Xiao Sheng and the Twelve Ancestral Witches' thoughts. He didn't understand why these guys wanted to see them!

"Perhaps it's related to the Chaos Battlefield, or the Immeasurable Calamity. In any case, Fellow Daoist Xiao Sheng wouldn't harm us. Why don't we go see him and hear what he has to say? Compared to him, our understanding of all this is far inferior to that of Fellow Daoist Xiao Sheng!" Earth Emperor Shennong advised. In his view, Xiao Sheng had no grudges against the human race, so naturally he wouldn't harm them!
"Very well, let's go see Xiao Sheng and the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and we'll understand their intentions!" At this moment, Goddess Nuwa also approved of the decision of the Earth Emperor Shennong. She also believed that the best way at this time was to meet with the other party. If the other party really had malicious intentions, they would not have stopped their army outside the human territory, but would have launched an attack directly. Most importantly, with the strength of Xiao Sheng and the Twelve Ancestral Witches, they could completely conquer the human minor world head-on!

"Fellow Daoist Xiao Sheng, I'm afraid the fellow Daoists of the human race are apprehensive about our arrival. After all, with our massive army pressing in, they can hardly be happy!" Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, also harbored some concerns about this situation, fearing that the human race would reject Xiao Sheng's suggestion and be unwilling to cooperate with them.

"It's alright, as long as everything is discussed openly, it'll be fine. And you don't need to worry. If it really doesn't work out, we can join forces to create a small world. Time waits for no one, and we don't have much time to waste. The sooner we complete our preparations, the better our chances of survival will be in the final battle of the immeasurable calamity. I believe that my fellow Daoists of the human race can know when to advance and retreat, and understand how to choose in this situation. We're not here to seize the human world; we just want to cooperate with the human race. It shouldn't be that difficult!"
