Chapter 84: Trillions of the Human Race
Yujing Mountain.
The former site of the Rice Ancestor's dojo, where a cluster of magnificent, golden palaces now stands.
Haotian Hall.
Donghuang Taiyi and Haotian sat opposite each other, discussing the affairs of the God Race's Divine Court.
When Donghuang Taiyi informed Haotian of the news that the God Race had appeared in the Primordial Starry Sky, Haotian agreed to Donghuang Taiyi's request without a second thought, but he had one condition.
That was, after the matter was accomplished, he wanted the territory of the Primordial Starry Sky.
Donghuang Taiyi naturally did not agree to this, and just as Donghuang Taiyi was about to flare up in anger after hearing this, Haotian spoke again.
"Fellow Daoist Donghuang, please calm your anger. Of course, after I, Haotian, take the Primordial Starry Sky, my Haotian Lineage is willing to swear to Heaven that as long as Fellow Daoist Di Jun's Demon Court still exists for a single day, my Haotian Lineage will never betray it!"
These words immediately stunned Donghuang Taiyi.
Ever since the Firmament of the Divine Court achieved Proof of Rice, it was discovered that oaths sworn to Heaven had become much more efficacious.
Anyone who violated their oath was judged by the Firmament.
However.
Who was he, Donghuang Taiyi?
How could he agree to or believe the oath of someone swearing to Heaven—that is, to the Firmament? So he immediately refused, saying: "This Emperor does not agree. The Firmament is a member of the God Race's Divine Court; if we swear to him, are we not asking for trouble? You had better swear to... the Great Rice!"
Upon hearing this, Haotian's face turned a shade of green and white.
In the end, Haotian found it difficult to refuse the temptation of the vast territory of the Primordial Starry Sky, and unwillingly swore to the Great Rice.
"The Great Rice is above. If I, Haotian, obtain the Primordial Starry Sky, I shall form a permanent alliance with Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, and we shall never betray one another. If any violate this, they shall never achieve Proof of Rice!"
After speaking, Wu Tian looked at Donghuang Taiyi.
Seeing this, Donghuang Taiyi also swore in a forthright manner.
"The Great Rice is above. I, Donghuang Taiyi, swear that if Haotian obtains the Primordial Starry Sky, my Demon Race shall form a permanent alliance with him, and we shall never betray one another. If any violate this, they shall never achieve Proof of Rice!"
After speaking, Donghuang Taiyi smiled: "Fellow Daoist Wu Tian, are you satisfied?"
Haotian nodded at this, but still said: "I hope that when the time comes, Fellow Daoist Di Jun can also swear this oath!"
"Rest assured, my Imperial Brother will certainly agree!"
Donghuang Taiyi immediately guaranteed.
Seeing this, Haotian nodded in understanding.
Then, the two chatted about cultivation and how to resist the God Race.
In fact.
There were still many loopholes in their oaths.
For example, Haotian's oath was only valid toward Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, and it did not apply to other members of the Demon Race or the Heavenly Court.
Therefore.
Once Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi met with any accidents, then he, Haotian, would not need to abide by the oath.
He could then take the Heavenly Realm in one fell swoop.
And Donghuang Taiyi's oath was the same.
He, Donghuang Taiyi, and the Demon Race had indeed sworn the oath and could not violate it.
But it did not say that others who were not of the Demon Race could not violate the oath, did it?
Whether one was a member of the Demon Race or not was still decided by the two brothers, was it not?
However, both were extremely confident and conceited individuals; even though they knew the other's oath had loopholes, they still firmly believed that they would be the ones laughing last.
Just as the two were talking about the Human Race, Haotian suddenly said this.
"Speaking of the Human Race, I heard that the Human Race has recently carried out another migration!"
Upon hearing this, Donghuang Taiyi smiled disdainfully.
"Heh, in the Primordial Land, where is there a region without my Demon Race? Where else could they migrate to?
Wouldn't they still end up becoming meat for my Demon Race?
Their move is destined to be a futile effort!"
Hearing this, Haotian smiled and said: "Is that so? But I heard that a group of nearly one trillion humans has migrated to the West!"
Having said this, Haotian feigned curiosity and asked.
"Fellow Daoist Donghuang, could it be that the Demon Race's influence in the Western Continent is already stronger than the God Race's Seven Royal Courts?"
Upon hearing this, Donghuang Taiyi's face flushed red as he slapped the table and shouted.
"How dare you, Human Race! You disregard the grace of the Goddess's creation; with a great war imminent, you actually dare to defect to the God Race!"
"Perhaps they are not defecting to the God Race? You must know that those two in the West have invited the Human Ancestors," Haotian corrected.
Donghuang Taiyi disagreed.
"Hmph! The God Race is powerful in the West; this journey is no different from defecting to the God Race!"
Having said this, a fierce light flashed in Donghuang Taiyi's eyes, and he then took his leave of Haotian.
"Very well, my message has been delivered. I hope Fellow Daoist Haotian will lead your people there immediately. I have other matters to attend to, so I shall take my leave now!"
After speaking, he transformed into a golden rainbow and rushed toward the West.
Seeing this, Haotian revealed a curious expression.
As it turned out, before Donghuang Taiyi arrived, upon his return, he had visited East Kunlun and learned from the disciple Guangchengzi about the news of the one trillion humans migrating to the West.
One must know.
This number of one trillion humans was not a small amount for the current Human Race.
This was already equivalent to one-tenth of the entire Human Race.
In the peak era of the Human Race, the number was indeed in the hundreds of trillions, so this one trillion was, relatively speaking, only a small number.
However, the Human Race has now endured the chaos of the Demon Race, suffering countless deaths and injuries, with only over ten trillion remaining today.
Therefore.
This trillion-scale number is equivalent to one-tenth of the Human Race, and the Human Luck also accounts for one-twentieth.
Moreover, once developed, its Qi Luck will certainly be more than one-twentieth.
For a Saint sect, this one-twentieth is not a small amount either.
It is enough for their sect to develop steadily toward prosperity for tens of millions of years.
What makes Haotian curious, however, is this.
Why did Yuanshi Tianzun not take this one-twentieth of the Human Luck for himself?
Instead, he had his disciple Guangchengzi tell him; is Yuanshi not afraid that this seat would inform the Demon Race of this matter?
Western Paradise.
Not long after Jieyin and Zhunti returned to Mount Ling, they calculated that some of the Human Race would come to the Western Continent.
They immediately dispatched their disciples Maitreya and Medicine Master to go and welcome them.
However.
They did not know that Cangtian in the God Race King Court had also become aware of this matter at that moment.
After thinking about it, he finally explained the matter to Yewenhua; as for how to handle it, he left it to Yewenhua to decide.
Afterward, he became immersed in contemplating the Law Great Rice.
And Yewenhua was quite decent.
After learning that the Human Race was the destined future protagonist of Honghuang.
He did not accept this group of the Human Race all by himself, but instead summoned the other six King Courts, intending to go together to accept this batch of the Human Race.
In the end, only four King Courts were willing to accept the Human Race.
They were the Heavenly King Court, the Gods King Court, the Brahma King Court, and the Asgard King Court.
The other three King Courts disdained the Human Race, so they did not join this operation.
Thus.
The four King Courts each dispatched their capable assistants to wait within Tianya, the only path leading to the Western Continent.
Three forces.
Because of the westward migration of the Human Race, the three forces were stirred into action.
Donghuang Taiyi pursued from behind, while ahead were Maitreya Buddha and Medicine Buddha of the Western Sect, as well as the four King Courts of the God Race waiting in Tianya.
In the westward migration team.
The Human Race Daluo Golden Immortal Ya was in the front, with nine Taiyi Golden Immortals in the back.
The ten people broke through space rapidly in a 'human' character formation, then quickly stepped into it, crossing a million miles in an instant.
Repeating this cycle, after dozens of jumps, the ten people finally exited the West Kunlun earth veins and entered Jieyuan Mountain of the Western Continent.
As long as they exited Jieyuan Mountain, they would be able to see the vast plains, and their migration mission would be nearly half complete.
As for the other half.
It was to find a few places suitable for the future development of the westward-migrating Human Race from the vast plains ahead.
