Under One Person, your rebellious life has reached the heavens?

"I know."

Meeting Wu Qian's excited gaze, Jiang Mo spoke calmly:

"It's not impossible for me to cooperate with you. Even though we were sworn enemies before, we are both threatened by the Sunset Demon Emperor now, so let's temporarily join forces."

“Okay, you’re right,” Wu Qian nodded in agreement.

"I have a few more conditions. You can tell the people outside the region later. If they are willing, then we can cooperate; if they are not, then there's no point in talking."

"Yes, please speak, and I will relay your message in full."

Wu Qian clasped his hands in a gesture of respect and made a promise.

"First, after defeating the demon race, one-fifth of the Sunset Royal Court's territory will belong to me. Your Great Ye Dynasty and Void Sword Sect will also need to cede one-tenth of their territory to me. I only want the area on the outskirts of Tianyuan. In the future, after our Tianyuan beings enter the world, they can live and multiply there."

"Secondly, during the cooperation period, if I need any cultivation resources, I ask that you all generously assist me. In return, I will help you slay the Demon Emperor after I leave. After all, the stronger I am, the better my chances of winning will be, right?"

"Okay...please continue, I'll take note of everything."

Wu Qian's expression remained unchanged. As far as he was concerned, he was not the highest authority of the Imperial Dynasty or the Sword Sect, so there was no need for him to worry about this. He was only responsible for relaying the message, and these conditions were not considered harsh.

"Third, within the Heavenly Abyss, all citizens of the Great Cause and Void Sword Disciples must gather in one place and be under my supervision as hostages. I know there are still some who are hiding in the vast sea of ​​people or in secret realms in various places, but I am too lazy to search for them one by one."

"Fourth, from this moment on, within three days, deliver the Other Shore Chaos Flower to me. If you have any schemes, you know what I can do."

Jiang Mo finished stating all four conditions. The first three were his true objectives, while the last one was a test of Wu Qian's sincerity.

Living in a remote and isolated place, he naturally did not want to become a pawn in the power struggle between various forces.

He wants to be a chess player.

They either overturn the table or win big, eating until their bowls are full, their mouths are greasy, and they feel extremely happy!

Chapter 583 Deceit and Intrigue, the Truth About Innate Magical Artifacts

Upon hearing the demand for the Other Shore Chaos Flower, Wu Qian was startled and dared not conceal the truth, so he told the truth:

"My Lord, I'm afraid we can't have your wish for the fourth one. It's not that we lack the sincerity to cooperate, but the original plants of the Other Shore Flower cultivated by the Grand Preceptor and Sect Master Ye were taken away by the Blood Moon King, one of the four kings of the Imperial Dynasty who colluded with the Sunset Demon Emperor, before the outbreak of the war, and handed over to the Demon Emperor."

"But the Demon Emperor, for some unknown reason, after obtaining the two Calamity Treasures, regarded the Other Shore Flower as a chicken rib and crushed it with his bare hands."

"Many living beings present at the time witnessed this scene, and I have not lied about it."

Jiang Mo lowered his eyes, gazing at the respectful Wu Qian, and murmured as if suddenly realizing something:

"Oh, that's how it is..."

"Fine, then I won't force it."

"Why did the Blood Moon King betray us? Have you investigated this matter thoroughly?"

"Uh... I've heard a little about it, but I'll just consider it some rumors. If you want to hear it, I'll tell you everything, but whether it's true or not, I don't know."

Wu Qian spread his left hand, and at the same time began to organize his thoughts in his mind, and started to tell the story vividly.

"Before Your Majesty ascended the throne, the Blood Moon King was the strongest royal bloodline in that dynasty and was expected to inherit the throne. However, he was defeated by the disciple supported by the Grand Preceptor, who is now Your Majesty... in an extraordinary way, by crossing several minor realms."

"Since then, the Blood Moon King has had a grudge against the Imperial Advisor and His Majesty. Later, the two sides clashed again. Under the pretext of purging the court of corrupt officials, the Blood Moon King challenged the Imperial Advisor, who secretly controlled the imperial power, and suffered a crushing defeat. He was spared death only because Emperor Wu and the Imperial Advisor pleaded and forgave him in a coordinated manner, in order to prevent the dynasty from splitting and its fortune from being damaged..."

"The later Blood Moon King remained silent for hundreds of years. Rumors circulated that he became the dog of the Imperial Advisor and His Majesty, at their beck and call, to suppress and target the other three kings... However, no one expected that he would lie low until now, so that he could steal the Other Shore Chaotic Flower at a crucial moment."

"Furthermore, he also stole several territories that belonged to him and countless people. Now, those places have been completely taken over by the Sunset Demon Emperor's elite demon race, and he has established a new dynasty called the Blood Moon Divine Dynasty, which is subservient to the Sunset Demon Court."

"We speculate that all he did was to dismantle the imperial dynasty, plunder its fortune, and ultimately help him ascend to the rank of Martial God."

Wu Qian was a bold and outspoken man. Since he wasn't being monitored in Tianyuan, he said whatever came to mind without any ambiguity.

"Do you have any other conditions, Venerable Xuan?"

Jiang Mo seemed to have thought of something, and spoke without any politeness:

"What are the conditions for activating the original compass? How many times can those people from beyond the realm open it?"

"I don't think I'll be going out alone. Besides, I'm very interested in these ancient magical artifacts. I must make sure they make room for one for me no matter what. I need to use it."

"These are the four points. Go and tell them to your emperor and the imperial advisor. If they agree, everything will be fine."

"Yes... I am not aware of the issue you are concerned about. I will report to His Majesty and then give you an answer."

Wu Qian immediately bowed, stood up and waved his robe, summoning a magical artifact that connected the inner and outer worlds. It was grayish-white and shaped like a Bagua plate.

As he brought his index fingers together, blood essence overflowed, flowing in a sword-like shape towards the center of the Bagua plate inlaid with Taiyi Xuanyu.

With a "buzz!" sound, a deafening roar erupted deep within Wu Qian's brain, as if the universe had exploded.

Immediately afterwards, his five senses surged dramatically, and silver-frost-colored martial arts runes appeared on his face, radiating incredible power. His eyes also turned pitch black instantly, like an ancient well with no bottom.

At this moment, his soul wandered, ignoring the barriers of space, and found himself in a mysterious world.

What comes into view is a dark palace, with a huge altar at your feet, and more than a hundred circular stone thrones standing on the edge of the altar.

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

After Wu Qian cast his spell, the Imperial Preceptor and Emperor Wu of the foreign dynasty noticed it and also used the same technique to project their consciousness into this special world.

In the blink of an eye, the thrones around them began to glow with dazzling light, some scarlet, some lilac, some pale blue, and some emerald green.

In an instant, strange phenomena appeared. Light condensed on the throne into eyes that were completely different from each other. Some were weathered, some were deep, some were indifferent, and some were majestic. Each of them had a different charm.

The participants included the emperor of the Daye Dynasty, the Grand Preceptor, three monarchs, seven divine generals, a group of high-ranking civil and military officials, and more than a dozen old monsters who crawled out of the blood coffin from their slumber.

Some of them were legendary generals who had achieved great feats in battle a thousand years ago, while others were emperors from dynasties even further back in history. All of them were exhausted from their lifespans but were unwilling to die, so they could only escape the erosion of time by sleeping.

These old monsters are by no means weak; they are all martial artists at the 'Flawless' realm, just one step away from becoming Martial Saints who can reach the pinnacle of Martial God!

Of course, compared to these martial artists who usually expend a lot of energy cultivating their blood and qi, the Void Sword Sect's foundation was even more terrifying.

Sect Master Ye You, the two deputy sect masters, and the sword masters of the Thirty-Six Sword Peaks have all arrived.

There were also some ancient sect leaders and elders from ancient times, whose cultivation was either at the level of peerless Dao Lord or supreme Dao Lord. There were dozens of them in a dark mass, the oldest of whom could even be traced back to seven thousand years ago.

The above is the true appearance of the Great Ye Dynasty and the Void Sword Sect, which is no less impressive than the eight great lineages that entered this mysterious world together.

"Your Majesty, this humble general has met with the Venerable Master successfully..."

Wu Qian knelt on one knee facing a crimson eye and loudly relayed the contents of his previous conversation with Jiang Mo.

The only part he deliberately omitted was the section about the conflict between the Blood Moon King, the Martial Emperor, and the Imperial Advisor.

Upon hearing the four demands, the attendees reacted differently. One ancient emperor, his eyes clouded yet gleaming with a predatory glint, coldly chuckled:

"What a huge appetite! They're asking for a tenth of the territory and a fifth of the Sunset Kingdom's territory."

Among the crowd, a Supreme Elder of the Void Sword Sect was also displeased with this:

"Hmph, a frog in a well. I'm afraid he might have the life to want it, but not the life to enjoy it."

The rulers and Dao Lords of the eight great lineages also had their own thoughts. Jiang Mo's actions infringed upon their interests. Originally, they had agreed with the Imperial Dynasty and the Sword Sect that after the destruction of this generation's demon royal court, that world would be divided among the ten forces.

Now, the natives of Tianyuan have interfered, forcibly taking one-fifth of the territory, which means that each of them will lose one-fifth of their territory and countless resources.

The Nine Palaces Ruler of the Three Fiends Crow lineage, represented by its demonic eyes, is a grayish-brown fleshy ball that floats in mid-air, vibrating slightly and emitting a cold voice that resounds throughout the entire hall.

"Since he has the guts, then let's give it to him. The few innate magic artifacts he has are key to the outcome of the battle. If he joins forces with the Sunset Demon Emperor, the consequences will be unimaginable. Besides, the conditions he asked for are not unreasonable."

It was the first to express its agreement.

Soon, the ruler of the Fighting Saint Ape lineage also nodded in approval.

Before long, all the demon race rulers from the eight great lineages unanimously voted in favor of the Undying Ruins and the Human King Clan, and decided to grant the Tianyuan natives' four demands.

The former sect leader of the Void Sword Sect looked around, his gaze settling on the leader of the Human King Clan on his left, and asked:

"Fellow Daoist, do you know if your clan possesses a second primordial compass?"

The voice of that supreme Dao Lord slowly drifted over:

"That's all. There's only one left. Even if the beings of Tianyuan wanted it, he might not be able to activate it. It would take at least three Supreme Dao Lords to work together to open a stable passage and enable travel between the two places."

At this point, the floating golden eyes fixed on Wu Qian, instructing him to deliver these words to Jiang Mo.

"The original compass can be lent to him temporarily, but if he wants to obtain it permanently, he must exchange it for a primordial magic artifact."

"Yes."

Wu Qian nodded silently, obeying the other party's instructions. The patriarch of the Human King Clan who was speaking to him was surnamed Ji, and his clan was one of the most powerful in terms of bloodline power in the ancient history of the human race.

He is also the strongest Supreme Dao Lord among the extraterrestrial human race today.

Seeing the king's resolute attitude, the other forces could not dissuade him and could only hope that the creatures of the Heavenly Abyss would not be too greedy and would know when to stop.

Emperor Wu of the Great Ye Dynasty looked around and, seeing that the situation was clear, announced:

“Alright, the Human King Clan will be responsible for condition four, and the remaining parties will assist in fulfilling the first three conditions.”

"good."

The former sect leader of the Void Sword Sect agreed.

The leaders of the eight lineages also approved of this arrangement.

"There's one more thing..."

Just then, an elderly man in the Daye Dynasty camp, still thinking about the Faith Body hidden in Feixian County that was comparable to a Primordial Magic Weapon, instructed Wu Qian:

"Remember... tell him..."

"When we... bring him out... we'll also bring out the Master of the Flying Immortal Sect to inherit the legendary Flying Immortal Dao Body."

The old man was like a withered and weak corpse, speaking weakly, as if he was hanging on by a thread and could swallow his last breath at any moment.

However, his cultivation was unfathomable, and he ranked first among all the elderly kings and divine generals of past dynasties, his aura faintly no less than that of the Imperial Preceptor.

"You will finally understand."

Wu Qian responded and then slowly raised his head, saying to the crowd, "I'll be right back."

With a "whoosh!", he suddenly disappeared from this mysterious world.

Dao Lords, Sovereigns, and Martial Saints all silently watched the center of the altar, awaiting news. About six minutes later, a flash of soul light appeared, and Wu Qian returned.

"Your Majesty, gentlemen, he has no objection to the revised conditions. The agreed time is one year and three months from now. At that time, after he has taken the elixir and completed the baptism, the elders of the Human King Clan will open the passage to take him out!"

"Your Majesty and Sect Master Ye, please issue an order immediately that all disciples and citizens stationed in Tianyuan shall fulfill the agreement and be temporarily held hostage."

"Wu Qian, I will talk to them. You will be in charge of this matter."

Emperor Daye Wu's true form is in the outer imperial city and has begun contacting other royal bloodlines trapped in Tianyuan.

Ye You of the Void Sword Sect suddenly turned cold, as several of his elders and a large number of elite disciples had mysteriously perished in the Heavenly Abyss.

The truth remains unclear to this day, and a dozen or so scattered inner disciples escaped the calamity by cooperating with local secret realms to live in seclusion.

The thought of the few remaining survivors soon becoming prisoners filled Ye You, the sect leader, with displeasure, but he still restrained himself and calmly said:

"Very well... I will make arrangements immediately."

Throughout the entire process, the ten major powers turned a blind eye to the conditions proposed by Jiang Mo.

It's simply because the power of the three innate magical artifacts he possesses has made him famous throughout history, resounding throughout the ages.

In particular, the Chaos Cauldron has the wonderful ability to temper one's physique. All the Nine Palace Sovereigns and Supreme Dao Lords present wanted to undergo a baptism and tempering with it, which would surely greatly enhance their combat power.

Whether it was a powerful human or an ancient emperor of the demon race, they all desired it.

However, what they didn't know was that the Chaos Cauldron, on which they had placed such high hopes, had long been shattered by someone in the Heavenly Abyss.

Soon, the conversation ended, and this world vanished into thin air. Wu Qian's soul returned to Tianyuan, merging with his physical body, and he said to Jiang Mo:

"Alright, Venerable Xuan, everything has been done as you requested. I hope you will abide by the covenant."

"You don't need to worry about my attitude. Now go and gather all the citizens of the Imperial Dynasty and the disciples of the Void Sword Sect. I need to see them all by tomorrow evening, or you know what I'm capable of..."

Jiang Mo glanced at the latter indifferently.

With a loud "boom!", Wu Qian suddenly felt a blur before his eyes and was transported to a place tens of thousands of miles away from the Sanyi Sect. The sounds he heard gradually faded away.

"........."

"call out!"

Wu Qian remained silent, and with a flash of afterimage, he took action.
