Chapter 1134

"？？？"

The three heard this and frowned.

In ancient times, the Eastern Sea was revered above the other four seas.

Now, though the Eastern Sea remains the largest force among the Dragon Clans, it can no longer command the other seas.

This was the result of countless years of struggle by the ancestors of the three sea dragon clans.

If they now accede to the Eastern Dragon King's demands, won't they be thrown back billions of years?

The Eastern Dragon King smiled: "What, unwilling? That's fine too. I know the Dao Lord; if he grants me a few spirit pills, I can quickly raise some disciples to the peak of Heavenly Immortal."

Even with just my Eastern Sea clan alone, we can still regain glory in this new age.

Hearing this, the three immediately grew anxious.

"What nonsense, friend!"

"We agree to this matter!"

"Yes yes, we were just considering it, not refusing!"

Being the top dog is certainly satisfying.

But if they lose the era's benefits and the chance to advance one step further, it would be a poor trade-off.

The Eastern Dragon King nodded: "Then let us swear an oath to heaven."

The three sea dragon kings exchanged glances, knowing the Eastern Dragon King would not yield, and so swore again under the witness of heaven and earth.

After swearing, the three looked toward the Eastern Dragon King.

The Eastern Dragon King waved his hand and tossed a jade slip toward them.

The three caught it and each read the cultivation methods within, their faces showing shock.

"This is truly an unparalleled immortal scripture!"

"Huh? Wait, why does it end only at the peak of Creation Realm? This can at most cultivate one to the Great Immortal stage?"

As soon as he spoke, the three looked toward the Eastern Dragon King.

The Eastern Dragon King spoke calmly: "Your strength is still weak; holding a Great Immortal scripture is not beneficial. When you reach the Great Immortal stage, the subsequent methods will naturally be given to you."

Hearing this, the three inwardly sighed bitterly.

Saying it was unsafe was really just the Eastern Dragon King wanting to control them.

They understood this clearly, yet were powerless to object.

After all, the initiative had always rested in the other's hands.

"Friend, you've truly thought of everything—we deeply admire you!"

The three made a few sarcastic remarks, then discussed the four-sea charter before departing.

Chat group.

Hu Yifei640: "Dragon King, you actually forgave the Western and Northern Seas? They tried to cut off your Eastern Sea's roots."

Su Xiao: "Yes, if you repay hatred with virtue, how do you repay kindness?"

Ye Hei: "What else can you do? Unless the Dragon King ruthlessly killed all three sea dragon kings, what choice did he have? He could only forgive them."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "Though it seems unpleasant to everyone, I must say this is the most optimal approach for maximizing benefit."

Ying Zheng: "Maximizing benefit? Why not unify all four seas?"

Ying Zheng2: "That's nonsense. The moment the Dragon King unifies the four seas, the Jade Emperor will immediately suspect him of coveting the Heavenly Emperor's throne. The Dragon King now commands the four seas without causing major upheaval—this is exactly why the Jade Emperor and Lingshan tolerate him. The Dragon King's approach is correct."

Making a big commotion could just be tolerated by the Jade Emperor and Lingshan; one could say, Long Wang's approach was the correct one.

Hu Yifei: "Alright, this is again political scheming. Indeed, even as immortals, you still have to understand this filthy business."

Su Xiao: "The old Dragon King must be exhausted—now that he's the head of a power, he can't act as freely as he wants."

Eastern Dragon King: "I've been master of the Eastern Sea for many years; I've grown used to this. Between powers, compromise is the norm—fighting to the death is only forced upon you."

Long Wang: "I've been the master of the East Sea for many years; such things have become commonplace to me. Between factions, compromise is usual—fighting to the death is only a last resort."

Killing him would only be a last resort.
