Traveling across the globe for the first time

Chapter 998 Negotiation
Number Two sneered and said, "Haha!
What a pity! These old guys have done so many bad things, and now they are getting their comeuppance.

Their close associates either died or chose to betray them.

Even if there are treasures now, there are no people to train. It is better to be generous and hand them all over, so that more powerful people can have the opportunity to achieve enlightenment..."

"Cough cough!"

"Well! Well said! There's no use keeping those resources anyway, so you might as well hand them over quickly."

Before he could finish his words, Fang Ping winked at him, signaling him to stop talking nonsense and quickly hand the storage ring to his main body.

To negotiate with the emperor, one must have enough strength.

Zhang Haoran is in the process of promotion. After refining these true bloods, his strength will definitely be greatly improved. At that time, whether fighting or making peace, they will be more confident.

Fang Ping sent a warning to Number Two, "Senior Brother Zhang said that I will be leading this negotiation, so don't make things worse for yourself.

Are you trying to turn against someone by poking their lungs at this time?
We are not afraid of falling out!
But there have to be benefits. You don't know how to negotiate at all. Keep quiet from now on."

Number Two curled his lips in frustration. He understood what was most important. His main task now was to protect Fang Ping and act as a mouthpiece. He didn't need to express his own opinions.

So he immediately put the ring into the storage space, thinking that the real blood should be enough to upgrade his body.

Zhang Haoran breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the familiar ring appear in the space.

As long as there is enough true blood, his immortal body will be able to successfully complete this transformation.

It's hard to say how much his strength can be improved, but he will definitely become more resilient. Only by being able to stand can he output. As long as he is not knocked down by the enemy, there is hope of victory.

Now that he had enough true blood, he was ready to concentrate on refining it and improve his strength first.

As for the battle, it can be led by others. He only needs to maintain the sword field and prevent the Human Emperor from escaping.

So he sent a message to the Heavenly King, "Senior Li, you will lead the battle here!
Let them continue attacking and not give the treacherous Emperor Ji a chance to recover from his injuries.

But you don't need to hit too hard, lest the other party despair and drag you down with him.

You should decide the right measure yourself.

Time is on our side, so don't be anxious."

King Zhentian immediately understood what he meant. As long as they could maintain the status quo, they would win!

He immediately assured, "Just focus on advancing! Leave the fighting to me! I guarantee he won't be able to escape."

Now the King of Zhentian has only blocked the way of the Human Emperor and has not taken any ruthless action. Some of his real trump cards have not been played yet, so he is confident that he can maintain the situation.

Since we want to delay time, the negotiations must continue.

Now is not the time to completely fall out with the Emperor.

Besides, killing a human emperor is not of much use, and it will cause the war between the three realms to break out prematurely.

After Zhang Haoran completes this wave of improvement and breaks the third virtual door, he will truly have the capital to challenge the emperor!

At that time, there was no need to worry that the emperor would send a clone to the lower world. The emperor's artifact clone had a strength of only level nine at most.

They may not be his opponents. Even if several emperors send clones to the lower world, they can be worn down by relying on their strong defense.

It was precisely because of this confidence that he felt there was no need to rush.

The most important thing now is to extort a large amount of treasure to improve everyone's strength. It would be best if several people could achieve enlightenment at the same time, and then join forces to fight their way to the Ninth Heaven.

Zhang Haoran felt that he was not very good at calculations, so he told Zhang Tao his ideas and decisions and asked him to make a decision.

Unexpectedly, he received Lao Zhang's approval. He smiled and said, "Haha, I think it's a good idea to let Fang Ping negotiate with them first.

Even if he blackmails us too much and the talks fall through, it's no big deal. We old guys will come out and clean up the mess.

A new round of negotiations begins.”

Zhang Haoran was somewhat speechless and said, "I let Fang Ping lead the negotiations because I thought that guy was greedy enough and smart enough, so he shouldn't suffer any loss!
I didn't expect you to be more ruthless than me!

Let Fang Ping first ask for an exorbitant price to test the emperor's bottom line.

"After that, you old guys will be in charge of the real negotiations, is that what you mean?"

Zhang Tao nodded with a smile. Fang Ping's strength had reached level seven, and he was also the leader of the new generation of the human race. It was completely natural for him to be responsible for leading the negotiations.

However, he is neither the strongest here nor the emperor, so there is someone to cover him if the talks fail.

Zhang Haoran shook his head and said, “I don’t understand the world of you old silver coins!

But I think those emperors are antiques who have lived for tens of thousands of years and they should not be fooled.

I'm now worried that Fang Ping won't be able to accomplish even the most basic goals."

Zhang Tao believed that he had never lost to anyone except Li Zhu in terms of old silver coins. He said confidently: "Don't worry, we won't suffer any loss this time!
If I hadn't played such a good hand, the world wouldn't have developed to its current situation.

However, everything still depends on strength, and only with strength can you have a say.

How are you doing now? How long will it take for you to be promoted?

Zhang Haoran said happily, "It should be soon! This promotion went very smoothly. Fang Ping sent me enough true blood, so it won't take long to complete the transformation.

By then I will have an extra life-saving skill!
However, this is not a breakthrough in cultivation, but only an improvement in defense and physique. Apart from being able to withstand more blows, the qi and blood will not change much, so don't overestimate my combat power.

By the way, no matter who leads the negotiations, they must obtain all the spiritual essences. That thing is very important to me."

Zhang Tao nodded to show that he understood, but did not ask for the specific reason.

He only occasionally constructed a few Heaven-Sealing Gates to harass the Human Emperor, and most of his energy was focused on the negotiations between Fang Ping and the Divine Emperor.

Now the emperors in the Ninth Heaven are very depressed. Fang Ping actually asked them to hand over all the star stones. This is simply too much.

Also, what do you mean by private collection? It's their stuff, alright!

Of course they have collected a lot of treasures such as true blood, and it is impossible for them to leave them all at the Qi and Blood Gate waiting to be snatched away.

That is not the Human Emperor's thing.

After all, the True Gate was created by all the emperors together, and everyone has the right to share the treasures.

The Divine Emperor had already seen Fang Ping's determination, but the Star Stone was an important treasure that could be used to control the powerful beings from the Three Realms, so he was not going to compromise so quickly.

The Divine Emperor said calmly, “Star Stone is not a natural treasure produced by the True Sect, and its quantity is extremely rare.

These were all collected by the emperors while exploring the universe. They are private property and should not be distributed."

Fang Ping immediately resigned! "Why is it not suitable for assignment?

You must know that it is because of your selfishness that the great way has been cut off for eight thousand years, and many old predecessors could not hold on and fell.

Even the powerful ones who are still alive don't have much lifespan left. Having incurred such a huge karmic debt, do you intend to renege on your obligations? I think using star stones to compensate for this emotional distress is just right. Anyway, these things are useless to you, so why not use them all to make up for our losses?”

The other emperors wanted to complain after hearing this. Who said that star stones are useless to emperors?

It’s just because the quantity is too small and the effect is not great that they are kept in their hands.

You know, star stone is more precious than origin soil.

If they have enough star stones to turn their original path into the true path, then they will have the opportunity to separate their Dao fruits from the source and break free from the constraints. Otherwise, the emperor will not collect star stones.

After hearing what Fang Ping said, the Divine Emperor smiled. He didn't mind giving Fang Ping some more benefits. The few star stones in his hand were only enough to pave the Origin Road of 18,000 meters. To him, they were dispensable. Instead, he gave them to the strong men in the Three Realms to help them consolidate their Origin Road and achieve better promotion.

They had planned long ago to give treasures such as True Blood and Life Jade Liquid to strong people who had the hope of achieving enlightenment.

If they use star stones to stabilize the origin of the Tao, their chances of achieving enlightenment will increase a lot.

In fact, the Divine Emperor was very willing to negotiate with Fang Ping, based on his observations during this period.

He knew that Fang Ping was very greedy and could be bribed.

So he chuckled and said very generously: "It's easy to talk about the stars. I can give you a few of them here.

As for the star stones in the hands of other emperors, I cannot make the decision. You have to talk to them yourself.

In addition, treasures such as Life Jade Liquid, True Blood, and Spiritual Marrow can be provided to you.

However, I hope to use these treasures to exchange for the Human Emperor Chronicles.

And the three realms cannot continue to be in chaos.

At least there should be no more major wars before the wall of the heavenly realm is broken.

This also requires your guarantee.”

“This emperor can clearly tell you that after you attain enlightenment, the Dao Fruit will fall into the source land, and you will also need to take on the responsibility of suppressing the source land.

This is a very hard thing to do.

This emperor hopes that more people can prove their truth and share this pressure together.
As long as you are willing to preach the truth, we will do our best to help you. Please feel free to tell us what you need."

"I rely on!"

Fang Ping couldn't help but curse. It was obvious that the powerful people from the three realms had caught the other party's handle and forced the emperors into a disadvantageous position. Negotiation was also a forced option.

However, the Divine Emperor spoke of it in a righteous manner, as if they were offering help on their own initiative.

What kind of help? Is that compensation?
However, Fang Ping was still in a very good mood. No matter what the other party said, the most important thing was to get the benefits first.

If dozens of emperors could appear in the Three Realms, then the other party would have to suppress any little thoughts they had. After all, this world still respected the strong.

Fang Ping spread his hands and said, "Actually, we don't want to go against you, the Lord Emperors. Aren't we being forced into this by you?
As long as you are willing to provide sufficient resources as compensation, we can have a good talk.

It would be best if we could satisfy one request for each of us.”

Fang Ping was very clear about the current situation. Only by uniting together could they fight against the emperor, and this alliance must be maintained.

Therefore, everyone must share in the benefits, and will only receive different compensations based on the size of their contribution in this war. No one will get nothing.

Otherwise, there would be no need for the emperor to instigate, and perhaps everyone would have started fighting first.

The Divine Emperor nodded and said, "Resources are easy to discuss. As long as they are not excessive, we will do our best to meet your requirements. I also hope that some fellow Taoists can achieve enlightenment soon and help share the pressure with us. If you have any other conditions, please continue to propose them."

Fang Ping was not polite and immediately said, "First of all, for the next six months, the Emperor cannot interfere in the affairs of the Three Realms, nor can he send his true body or clones to the lower realms.

Since you haven't been involved in the affairs of the Three Realms for eight thousand years, you might as well wait another six months.

We don't want to be attacked by the emperor suddenly while we are practicing hard.

You must swear an oath to Heaven on this point."

When entering the actual negotiation phase, Fang Ping has been using his mental power to amplify his voice. Every word and sentence can resound throughout the universe. Even the powerful people who are fighting fiercely outside can hear the conversation between the two.

Although everyone was unable to participate in the negotiations, they all expressed support for the conditions proposed by Fang Ping.

This involves the interests of everyone, and they don't want to stay at home and suddenly be attacked by an emperor.

So many of them surrounded a human emperor, and after fighting for a long time, they were unable to kill him.

If the emperor launches a surprise attack, even the strongest person will not be able to withstand it.

Rather than disbanding and being defeated one by one by the Emperor, it is better to fight now and drag the Human Emperor down with him.

To show their determination, everyone increased the intensity of their attacks.

The meaning was very clear. This condition must be agreed to, otherwise the Human Emperor would be killed first, and then the emperor of the lower realm would fight to the death.

This time, the Divine Emperor did not answer immediately. He still needed to discuss such an important matter with others.

After all, once they agreed, it would be equivalent to completely giving up the Three Realms. However, it was only for half a year, so they could barely accept it.

Fang Ping said calmly, "I know that we beat the Human Emperor so badly this time, and it's embarrassing for everyone. We will definitely face retaliation afterwards.

Divide and disintegrate, sow discord, and all kinds of conspiracy tactics are indispensable!
It's ok!
You can use these methods!
Strong people grow up in adversity.

If someone is plotted to die, then he can only blame himself for his bad luck!"

He changed the subject and said seriously, "But I don't want to see the strong bullying the weak. No emperor would be so shameless as to personally launch a sneak attack, so my request is not excessive."

Fang Ping had said so much that even if the Divine Emperor and the others wanted to refuse, they had no choice.

If you refuse, doesn't it mean that an emperor may come down to the mortal world to attack at any time? Who would have the mind to practice then?
The Divine Emperor's voice came again, and he said somewhat helplessly: "Alright! This Emperor promises that in the next six months, we will not descend to the mortal world.

Ah!
Nor will they send an avatar whose strength exceeds that of the Heavenly King to the lower realms."

The meaning of this statement is very clear. Aren't you afraid of being ambushed?

We can guarantee this.

However, the situation in the three realms cannot be out of control. They will send weaker clones to the lower realms to integrate forces, win over some people, and divide and disintegrate them.

The Divine Emperor said it clearly, this is an open conspiracy.

Fang Ping couldn't object any more. He was an emperor. If he really wanted to contact someone, he could do it even without sending a clone.

If he is afraid of a clone whose strength is not as strong as that of a king, then he seems too cowardly!

Fang Ping sneered, "Haha! As long as their strength isn't as strong as a Heavenly King's clone, you can send as many as you want to the lower realms!

However, I cannot guarantee that these clones can return alive!"
