Chapter 1273: Peak Forces

The Human Race is flourishing for the third time; how could this not make the other Ten Thousand Races cry out that the Heavenly Dao is unfair?

The Human Race is already extremely powerful now; with another flourishing, the Human Race will inevitably give birth to several more Quasi-Saints, or perhaps even stronger beings.

Moreover, and more importantly, as the Human Race flourishes and their Qi of Luck surges, that Great God Fuxi is very likely to take the final step.

The Human Race is already very powerful on its own; once Great God Fuxi takes that step and reaches a realm on par with Zhenyuanzi, then the Human Race will truly be unstoppable.

Back in the day, the Demon Race had the Eastern Emperor, a Half-Saint; if not for the Witch Tribe, then even the Sages of the Honghuang world would likely have been unable to stop the Demon Race.

After all, the Demon Race already had a Sage at that time.

But now, the Honghuang Sanjie has no Sages; the strongest, Pingxin Niangniang, only stays in the Reincarnation Land of the Difu, and she almost completely ignores the Three Realms.

As long as it does not involve the Difu Reincarnation, this Niangniang will not even appear; the last time she sent an avatar, it was only because of the appearance of another Shen Ting Da Shi Jie, which was a major event for the Honghuang Sanjie, so she dispatched an avatar.

Therefore, as long as she does not emerge, a Half-Saint is the strongest being in Honghuang.

Great Immortal Zhenyuanzi himself has a good relationship with the Human Race; once the Human Race produces a Half-Saint, they will be a true hegemon in name and reality, and other forces will ultimately be unable to stop the Human Race again.

By then, if the Human Race takes the Heavenly Court and uses the Heavenly Court's Qi of Luck to help Great God Fuxi become a Saint one step faster, then another behemoth will appear among the Ten Thousand Races, and the other forces and Ten Thousand Races will all eventually submit to the control of the Human Race.

When the Demon Race was at the height of its power, nearly half of the living beings of the Ten Thousand Races submitted to the control of the Demon Court.

Even some Loose Cultivator Great Supernatural Beings of Honghuang were persecuted by the Witch and Demon Tribes; the Witch Tribe slaughtered them, while the Demon Race forced these Great Supernatural Beings to defect to the Demon Court.

Whether the Human Race will become such a force in the future, no one can say for sure.

However, the remaining forces of the Heavenly Court and the Demon Court are inevitably the most worried; the karmic ties between the Heavenly Court and the Human Race are not insignificant.

And as for the Demon Court, it has a blood feud with the Human Race.

Between the current Demon Race and the Human Race, there is still mutual slaughter; such hatred is nothing, as people hunting demons to obtain the Inner Core and flesh of demon beasts, and demons eating people, has already become a habit.

But in the ancient times, the Demon Court almost wiped out the Human Race; the Human Race will not forget this blood feud, as countless Human Race powerhouses died under the encirclement and slaughter of the Demon Court.

Although the Demon Court has been destroyed, the Demon Gods and Demon Saints of the Demon Court back then are still alive, and the karmic ties between the two sides have not been settled.

Over these years, those Demon Saints and Demon Gods of the Demon Race have been terrified, fearing that the Human Race might strike at them, so they have tried every means to find helpers.

Defecting to the Heavenly Court is one aspect, and some have also defected to the Buddhist Sect.

After all, the Buddhist Sect and the Heavenly Court are two of the top forces known in the Three Realms.

As for others, such as the Three Teachings of the Profound Gate, the Jie Sect is gone, the Human Teachings do not really take in disciples, and the Chan Sect looks down on the Demon Race the most.

Therefore, these Demon Gods have no choice; only the Heavenly Court and the Buddhist Sect are willing to take them in.

As for the rest, some Great Supernatural Beings will not offend the Human Race for their sake; after all, having experienced the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors and the Hundred Schools of Thought, the strength of the Human Race is actually already the first in the Three Realms.

Fuxi, this top-tier Quasi-Saint, can be said to be absolutely in the top five in terms of strength in the Honghuang Sanjie, plus the combat power of two or three other Quasi-Saint Peak experts.

Among the top forces of the Three Realms, how many actually have such combat power? Perhaps these forces have more than one or two Quasi-Saints.

The Quasi-Saints of the Heavenly Court added together might number about two hands, yet those who have truly reached the Quasi-Saint Late Stage are likely fewer than five, and those at the Quasi-Saint Peak do not exceed three; except for Haotian and that Xiwangmu, the rest are likely below the Quasi-Saint Late Stage.

The Buddhist Sect is the same.

And the Human Race's Fire Cloud Cave has at least three Quasi-Saint Peak experts; as for Quasi-Saint powerhouses, no one is clear, because the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors rarely come out and have always been in the Fire Cloud Cave, and outsiders cannot peer into the Fire Cloud Cave.

This has also led to those forces being increasingly wary of the Human Race.

Right now, those top-tier powerhouses have glimpsed changes in the Heavenly secrets, indicating a trace of the Human Race flourishing again, and the place of this flourishing is still Jiuzhou.

Therefore, both the Heavenly Court and the Buddhist Sect can no longer sit still.

Su Fan descending to the lower realm again to come to Jiuzhou and give pointers to Zhang Jiao and Zhuge Liang is also for this reason; the reminder from Great God Fuxi made Su Fan understand that the Science Path is the foundation for the future flourishing of the Human Race.

The flourishing of the Human Race is not a good thing for the Ten Thousand Races.

The Qi of Luck of the Honghuang world is inherently fixed in quantity; therefore, in the future, those forces will inevitably try every means to stop the Human Race from flourishing and to stop this Science Path.

Of course, those people would not dare to stop it openly.

But in the shadows, any conspiracy or trick can be deployed.

And Zhang Jiao and Zhuge Liang are the promoters of the Science Path and are already the masters of the flourishing of Jiuzhou.

Although it was Su Fan who created the Science Path, logically Su Fan should be the most dangerous, but now in the Three Realms, no one dares to strike at Su Fan.

Firstly, Su Fan's own cultivation is already at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level; with such strength, only a Great Luo Golden Immortal Peak would have a chance to suppress him.

But in reality, Su Fan has the Sea-Calming Pearls in his hand; twelve Sea-Calming Pearls are also high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures. With these twelve Sea-Calming Pearls, even a Great Luo Golden Immortal Peak, if they do not have high-grade or above Innate Spiritual Treasures, cannot suppress Su Fan.

Then, only a Quasi-Saint would have the confidence to take down Su Fan.

In the Investiture of the Gods, Zhao Gongming could use his Great Luo Golden Immortal status to make Randeng flee in panic, but Su Fan cannot do that; firstly, the opponent had twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls.

Secondly, Zhao Gongming's foundation is stronger than Su Fan's.

Even though Su Fan has now reversed his innate nature, he is still a bit inferior to Zhao Gongming in terms of origin; as for the Daoist methods he practices, although Su Fan practices the Five Elements Great Dao, this Five Elements Great Dao was, after all, created by himself.

And what Zhao Gongming practices is the Shangqing Immortal Method of Tongtian Shengren, which points directly to the Saint's Daoist methods; in this regard, Su Fan is certainly still lacking.

Finally, Zhao Gongming was already at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Late Stage, or even the Peak, at that time, while Su Fan has only just entered the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage; the gap between the two is still very large.

Facing an ordinary Quasi-Saint, Zhao Gongming could beat the opponent until they fled in panic, but Su Fan would only be suppressed.

But in reality, no Quasi-Saint dares to strike at Su Fan; having cultivated to the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage, one is already a high-level member of a force, and if there are no major karmic ties, both sides will not easily make a move.

After all, who doesn't have a powerful backer? Once one is easily suppressed or killed, it will only cause conflict between the two major forces.

Especially someone like Su Fan, who carries great Qi of Luck and great Merit, is even more like a turtle shell.
