Chapter 1692: Bringing Hope

After this spiritual energy is drawn into the Space World, it is also absorbed and stored by Ye Liuyun's Primordial Power.

It not only can enlarge his Primordial Power, but also can be used to store energy.

For a moment, everyone could see the spiritual energy swarming into Ye Liuyun's Xuan Kong Shi.

These Martial Cultivators, although unfamiliar with the Xuan Kong Shi, knew it was a cultivation space, so no one found it strange.

They merely saw Ye Liuyun desperately absorbing the spiritual energy and gave a bitter smile.

When they first encountered this Primordial Power, they also cultivated desperately.

But no matter how they cultivated, they saw no hope, and gradually became numb.

They all thought Ye Liuyun would only be fresh for a short time, and later become like them.

Therefore no one bothered him, letting him mess around as he pleased.

If Ye Liuyun now said he would take the Primordial Power away, these people probably wouldn't oppose.

As long as they don't let the Foreign Tribe obtain it, their persistence hasn't been in vain.

Qiong Qi understood this principle, so he didn't let Ye Liuyun negotiate with that Jiuyang Heavenly Venerable.

Ye Liuyun's heart is too soft; letting him negotiate might even cause him to add more resources inside.

Qiong Qi swaggered over to the Jiuyang Heavenly Venerable's side and sat down.

The Jiuyang Heavenly Venerable opened his eyes and looked at him curiously.

The other Martial Cultivators, also puzzled by Qiong Qi's actions, used their Divine Sense to probe the situation here.

"Old man, let's talk, huh?"

"You haven't asked what we can bring you yet?"

Qiong Qi said to the Jiuyang Heavenly Venerable with a grin.

The Jiuyang Heavenly Venerable gave a bitter smile.

Now he has completely lost the demeanor and temper of a Heavenly Venerable.

Even when Qiong Qi called him "old man," he showed no reaction.

He casually said, "Do you have the ability to change the outcome?"

Qiong Qi also knew that these people had completely lost confidence and hope; without showing them any hope, they wouldn't even be in the mood to negotiate.

He actually wanted to take this world's Primordial Power outright, but Ye Liuyun would probably not agree.

So Qiong Qi immediately released the Divine Realm strongman's oppressive aura from his body, letting them see his strength.

Then he laughed, "I have brought you hope! Whether you wish to change depends on your attitude!"

Qiong Qi's Divine Realm strongman's aura indeed shocked everyone.

If they have a Divine Realm strongman, there is indeed a chance to turn the tide.

Although facing numerous Foreign Tribe and Corpse Demon forces leaves little hope, the impact of a top‑tier strongman cannot be erased merely by the sheer number of Corpse Demons.

Thus, everyone gradually gathered around, listening to what Qiong Qi would say.

Even the Jiuyang Heavenly Venerable seemed to have a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

He quickly bowed to Qiong Qi, "So you are a Divine Realm strongman! My apologies!"

Qiong Qi magnanimously waved his hand, then raised it, held up three fingers, and continued, "I can do three things for you: First, remodel the Formation so that Primordial Power directly supplies energy, without needing people to tend the Formation."

Each time Qiong Qi mentioned an item, he lowered one finger, listing them one by one to the crowd.

"Second, I can set up another Formation to draw Martial Cultivators from other worlds, so everyone can jointly slay Corpse Demons.

More people mean greater strength; even we alone are not numerically superior.

Third, I can encourage Martial Cultivators from other worlds to migrate here, helping you rebuild your homeland.

Both men and women will be present.

Otherwise, you lot would be unable to reproduce.

Even if you win, you will eventually become extinct!"

When Qiong Qi finished speaking, everyone widened their eyes in disbelief.

They hadn't yet shifted from a death‑bound mindset.

After the stimulus, the Jiuyang Heavenly Venerable finally began to think.

He asked Qiong Qi, "Aren't you from this world?"

"That's right!"

Qiong Qi confirmed with a smile.

Then he stood up, brushed dust off his backside, and said to the Jiuyang Heavenly Venerable, "Consider what I said yourselves! Without aid from other worlds, regardless of win or loss, your race will ultimately face extinction!"

The three matters Qiong Qi discussed with him actually had a farther‑reaching view.

At present, the remaining Martial Cultivators are mostly male disciples, with few female disciples.

With so few people, even if they survive after defeating the Corpse Demons, they lack enough for the race to propagate and will eventually perish.

"No need to discuss further! We agree!"

The Jiuyang Heavenly Venerable immediately called out to Qiong Qi.

The three things Qiong Qi mentioned were already beneficial to them, so they had no reason to refuse.

Moreover, they currently have no choice.

"Don't rush! Think it over again!"

Qiong Qi smiled, his face unmoved, and said, "If I do all this for you, what can you give me?"

After speaking, Qiong Qi laughed and left the Jiuyang Heavenly Venerable, running to Ye Liuyun's Xuan Kong Shi to cultivate.

Now that their identities are exposed, they naturally have to be more careful about Ye Liuyun's safety.

The crowd was momentarily stunned, then quickly recovered.

Qiong Qi is not from their world, so he naturally wouldn't help them for no reason.

But no matter what, accepting human help is still better than being wiped out by the Foreign Tribe.

All the Martial Cultivators were watching Nine Yang Heavenly Venerable, waiting for him to make a decision.

Nine Yang Heavenly Venerable looked at the peacefully cultivating Qiong Qi.

He was also wondering at this moment what Qiong Qi actually wanted.

They now have nothing left.

He watched Qiong Qi cultivating, and suddenly realized they still had this world's Primordial Power.

For now, this is the only thing of value.

They actually don't care about this Primordial Power now; even if Qiong Qi took it, it wouldn't matter.

But if the Primordial Power were taken, this world would collapse and gradually disappear.

But Qiong Qi's proposal was to repair this world and let it regain its vitality.

Since it cannot be taken directly, there is only one explanation.

Qiong Qi wants control of the Primordial Power.

Who can use it is up to him to decide.

"He wants control of this world! Only after he has this authority will he sincerely restore this world!"

After Nine Yang Heavenly Venerable figured it out, he also smiled faintly.

For them, as long as they can survive and preserve this world, it doesn't matter who controls it, as long as it's humans in charge.

He himself and the remaining people also lack that ambition to become the world's ruler.

Then Nine Yang Heavenly Venerable directly stated his decision: 'I will hand over this world's Primordial Power to them to manage

To exchange for this world's survival and development, do you have any opinions?'

Now they are the only Human Martial Cultivators left in this world, and Nine Yang Heavenly Venerable also doesn't want to decide alone.

The original Martial Cultivators had already seen no hope, but now there is a sliver of vitality, so naturally they have nothing to say.

But at this moment, Mu Yuqing raised an objection.
