Chapter 287

Primordial Wasteland.

Flower-Fruit Mountain.

"Exactly! That's it!"

Sun Wukong slapped his palms, eyes blazing!

"Mr. Shi's insight is indeed exceptional; I now know what to do!"

Shi Xuejin:???

He pondered, realizing he himself hadn't suggested any idea!

Were his earlier words not meant to politely decline the other party?

"What has the Great Sage thought of?"

Shi Xuejin wanted to clarify whether he had inadvertently gotten entangled in a cause-and-effect relationship in his muddle-headedness! "Sever the root!"

"Isn't the Western bald donkey planning to behead the Jinghe River Dragon King, using its resentful spirit as a sacrifice, to make the Tang Emperor tremble?"

"They want the Tang Emperor to hold the largest possible Dharma assembly, thereby laying an innate foundation for the transmission of Buddhism!"

Only when the number of believers increases will the faith power that can be drawn upon, the human race's fortune, become more extensive!

"I recall, they did not set up the opening challenge!"

"So this beginning will likely be done in the same way!"

"Setting a pit at this initial position to first give the West a show of force would be good!"

Sun Wukong, upon thinking of something, acts on it immediately; he hadn't even warmed his seat on Flower-Fruit Mountain before rushing out again!

Go find the Human Emperor!

Shi Xuejin glanced at the tea just starting to boil beside him, his expression helpless!

This monkey, his age is enough to be one's ancestor, right?

His conduct is actually so rash, it's...

However, he really resembles that Lü Shu kid! His drive is maxed out!

Shi Xuejin sighed, and had no choice but to follow...

Arrived at the Human Emperor's palace.

But Sun Wukong received bad news! Fuxi, eyes filled with apology, spoke to Sun Wukong.

"Sorry, Great Sage!"

"The opening challenge was not among our preparations!"

The reason the strong ones aren't causing trouble at the opening is simple! They're competing for performance points!

This opening takes place in the Tang imperial capital; there's no way fighting could happen! Even the aftershocks of a clash between Golden Immortals could easily shatter a city! The Tang is no petty state! This place gathers nine-tenths of the human race's fortune! Destroying the contemporary human imperial capital would surely incur a backlash of fortune! No one wants to bear that!

But if killing isn't possible, where would performance points come from in this opening?

Even the three Human Emperors have no intention of setting up a checkpoint here! They know what's more important! Strength!

Thirteen world slots! Each small world represents an opportunity to possibly advance to Grand Void Supreme Golden Immortal! Absolutely cannot be relinquished! The Human Emperors' goal is to secure two and strive for three!

Xuanyuan can be set aside for now, but Fuxi and Shennong must press forward! Only with strength comes authority! When everyone else breaks through, pulling ahead on top-tier combat power, how could we save humanity?

If strength falls, everything will be doomed!

The Human Emperors have only seven opportunities in total, far fewer than others!

Each time must be done to the utmost perfection! Only then can we possibly maximize gains!

Moreover, the Way of Alchemy and cultivation complement each other!

Fuxi and Shennong are skilled at alchemy!

If the two can break through, they will certainly have the chance to learn most of the top-tier ten-grade elixir formulas! Then, their authority could become utterly different!

Even if Xuanyuan is quite tempted, feeling that giving the West a show of force at the opening is not bad!

But he can only suppress his thoughts! Whether emotion or strength is more important is beyond doubt!

"Perhaps the three's thoughts are somewhat biased!" When Sun Wukong felt disappointed, Shi Xuejin walked out from beside him, his gaze strange, speaking at length.

This world is truly crazy!

Having lived long!

I never expected to actually see the Human Race's ancestors with my own eyes! The three Human Emperors all turned their gazes, landing on Shi Xuejin.

They had long been curious! The strong in the world are limited in number!

Such a peak Golden Immortal, judging by his aura, even rivals a Grand Void Golden Immortal! How come such a powerful being has never been heard of before?

"Perhaps the several of you could think it over!"

Shi Xuejin voluntarily took on the role of envoy for Sun Wukong.

"What Senior Ye said, judging by your performance, is it truly limited to mere killing?"

Or what else?

The three Human Emperors stared oddly at Shi Xuejin! Being able to kill victorious is the most outstanding performance! Ye Yang even personally promised to provide large amounts of Nirvana Pills, for reviving people!

If killing isn't the top score, then what is? "Life and death are indeed the most direct judgment, but Senior Ye's gaze certainly does not stop only here!"

Shi Xuejin spoke with utmost conviction.

"How could the strength or weakness of a group of Golden Immortals prove your methods?"

"If it's merely to distinguish strength and select the stronger to grasp the qualification for advancement, there is a simpler method!"

"Throw you all into chaos to raise gu; whoever survives first gains the qualification to advance!"

"As for the world's foundation, there's no need to worry at all!"

"In the past, the Primordial Wasteland required only six sages to supplement its foundation, let alone now!"

"Moreover, as long as those who survive can break through!"

The stability that thirteen Primordial Supreme Ultimate Great Nets bring to the world is far greater than that brought by thirty Primordial Great Nets!

That statement is actually reasonable!

The three Human Emperors gazed at each other, and vaguely felt that Shi Xuejin's words were reasonable!

Using the flesh bodies and souls of those dead Primordial Golden Immortals, and even everything else, to fill the West!

The effect would definitely be better than continuously dividing Qi Luck to supplement the earth veins, right? 'The people of the Wilderness, in strength they leave us in the dust, but in the art of scheming they are still quite naive!'

Shi Xuejin sighed softly.

These powerhouses of the Wilderness, if placed in the officialdom, probably nine out of ten would spend their whole lives only able to be a ninth-rank sesame official!

They would not even try to gauge the superior's intentions!

However, after thinking it over, Shi Xuejin also felt relieved!

Actually, it's not hard to understand!

The fundamental nature of the Wilderness is to strive for supremacy! Although they occasionally engage in plots and tricks, such as planting a few spies in each other's forces, those methods are really not clever! To remain undetected, they rely on living long lives and a style of never defecting in a fight to the death! Using such methods in officialdom, they'd likely be swindled out of their underwear and still have to lend people money!

Logically speaking, among the many Primordial Great Luo, the Human Emperor who rose from obscurity should have more keen foresight! However! Trapped in Fire Cloud Cave, trapped for countless eons, never seeing the light of day!

Such ages have also caused the three Human Emperors to gradually cast aside the various schemes they once knew to the back of their minds!

After receiving Shi Xuejin's guidance, the three Human Emperors felt an itchy scalp! They were about to grow a brain—what to do! 'What you mean is...'

Shi Xuejin smiled slightly, then shifted the topic to talk about something completely unrelated.

'You three should have also guessed my origin!'

'I am not a person of this realm!'

'My world is about to ascend to the Great Thousand World, and I am the Heaven of that world!'

'Senior Ye Yang invited me in order to swallow my world without bloodshed!'
