Chapter 1008 The Trial Ends, the Strong Are Greedy
Chapter 1008 — The Trial is Over, the Strong are Greedy
When reaching the realm of the Lord of Dajiang, and during this period of time, one must pay close attention to everything that happens between heaven and earth, especially things related to the True Immortals, which must not be ignored.
He didn't know, but people like King Yuan must know. After all, after he seized the fruit of the sacred tree, he asked these people to leave the bloody trial quickly, leaving some backup for the ancient country.
"Innate Gods and Demons." King Yuan did not delay and immediately told the news of this period of time.
Not only the Lord of Dajiang, but also the Lord of Daxue, who also seized a fruit of the sacred tree and refined it, had the same attitude. He needed to know clearly what happened between heaven and earth immediately, during the period when he entered the bloody trial.
These strong men who came out of the trial, especially the strongest overlords who successfully seized the fruit of the sacred tree, also began to use their own channels to understand the changes that took place in heaven and earth during this period of time.
This news about the innate gods and demons was also known to them immediately.
When they first heard the news, these strongest people were shocked, after all, this news was too abrupt and unexpected.
However, after learning about the actions of these true immortals, as well as the reactions and true strength of those innate gods and demons, these strong people also agreed with this.
The emergence of innate gods and demons is a threat to the interests of both the human race and the demon race. In addition to many true immortals, in fact, if these innate gods and demons are really allowed to become powerful and left alone, the strong people who are second only to the true immortals will suffer the greatest loss of interests.
After all, the true immortals are no longer a threat, and these people have not yet set foot on the immortal path. The emergence of these innate gods and demons is their biggest competitor.
There are even many strong people who feel sorry that these true immortals still maintain a gentle attitude towards the innate gods and demons. If they can suppress all these innate gods and demons, they can get greater benefits.
"These people are really too greedy. In the eyes of the True Immortals, as long as the innate gods and demons recognize their human race, they can accept them, but these people can't wait to suppress the many innate gods and demons, seize their origins, and use this to improve their own laws and authority. Haha." Zhu Houcong sat high on the throne, with a mocking look on his face.
Anyone standing in a different camp will naturally see different perspectives, and he can naturally get the ideas of those strongest people.
However, Zhu Houcong did not agree with the ideas of these people, thinking that these people were just short-sighted and only cared about the immediate interests.
In fact, there is no life-and-death contradiction and hatred between the innate gods and demons. In fact, they can coexist. As long as these innate gods and demons do not talk about the human race's fight for the position of the protagonist of heaven and earth, they can also accept each other.
The current era is no longer the ancient times. Although the innate gods and demons who can return are powerful, their number is not enough to support a race.
"As long as these innate gods and demons compromise, they can be assimilated into the human race sooner or later, just like in the ancient times, when the human race defeated and suppressed all races, it also assimilated some of the other races and made them part of the human race." Zhu Houcong's eyes showed ambition.
As the inheritor of the human race's co-leader, he naturally knew how the human race became powerful in ancient times.
In addition to the continuous birth of strong people in the human race, they also accepted some powerful villages and were willing to let them coexist with the human race, using common interests to tie these existences to the human race's chariot.
Not to mention other things, the many witch gods worshipped by the witch god lineage, if they really look into it, some of them are not human, but powerful creatures in ancient times, but they eventually coexisted with the human race, and now they can't be separated at all.
It is for this reason that when the witch god leader passed on the news to him about the time demon god, he didn't hesitate too much and decisively agreed to the other party's request.
He probably guessed the plans of these true immortals. They planned to use interests to bind these innate gods and demons, turn them into part of the human race, and contribute to the prosperity of the human race, just like the ancient human race.
Although he didn't want to admit it, in fact, Zhu Houcong was greatly influenced by Pei Xuanjing in his growth trajectory. Pei Xuanjing's open conspiracy, using common interests to bind more people, and uniting all forces that can be united to jointly promote certain things, greatly influenced Zhu Houcong.
His Ming Dynasty can continue to grow, not only because of the blessing of Pei Xuanjing's true immortal, the help of the right time and place, but also because of his open mind.
The continuous rise of the Ming Dynasty, even if the throne he was conferred was not enough for immortality, the authority of this throne was also a blessing for strength and could prolong life.
With this advantage, the Ming Dynasty also won over many powerful people from the Tianhuang Realm, letting them work for the Ming Dynasty, which made the Ming Dynasty continue to grow.
Although he did not fight for the fruit of the sacred tree during this bloody trial, he relied on his identity and his relationship with Pei Xuanjing to tempt many powerful people with benefits. Some of them were willing to join the Ming Dynasty directly, and some refused, but left the possibility of future cooperation.
The immediate benefits are short-lived, and the future is worth fighting for, especially after the Conferred God War, the establishment of the Heavenly Court, and the gods who are truly qualified to participate in the great events of heaven and earth, in addition to the true immortals, are those who have been conferred the title of God and hold the power of heaven and earth.
"Wait for the Heavenly Court to become orthodox. By that time, even if you are the strongest overlord, if you do not occupy a certain position of god in the Heavenly Court, you are likely to be rejected by many true immortals and unable to dominate the situation of heaven and earth." Zhu Houcong thought to himself.
He has deduced the future situation several times, and even deduced it together with Bai Xiaosheng, and vaguely asked Pei Xuanjing.
According to the current development of the disorder, many true immortals in the future will hide behind the scenes and turn the Heavenly Court into the biggest ruler of the world, and everything will revolve around the Heavenly Court.
Those true immortals have powerful power, and they can stand at the top of the world even if they do not need the position of god.
And even as the strongest overlord, if you do not have the position of god and are not a part of the Heavenly Court, then you will naturally be excluded in the future and cannot share the future interests.
This is a screening and a reshuffle. If you cannot occupy a favorable position, you will lose your position and authority in the future.
"Every strong man who can reach this point has enough wisdom. There shouldn't be anyone so stupid as to not see the core of the future and give up the authority of the throne when he can't achieve the true immortal, right?" Zhu Houcong shook his head and put aside this idea. He didn't think that any strong man would be so stupid.
If a strong man really reaches this point, he will not only be ridiculed by other strong men, but will also completely lose the qualification to stand at the top.
When there was no heaven, the true immortals dominated everything. Although there were strong and weak outside the true immortals, they were really just an identity.
But when the heaven exists, it is supported by the true immortals and recognized by the will of heaven and earth, then the heaven is orthodox and represents heaven and earth.
A strong man who has not obtained the throne of the heaven is like a temple that has not been conferred by the Divine Dynasty. It is a lewd worship of evil gods and is not recognized.
"Either become a true immortal or become a member of the Heavenly Court. There is no other choice. Otherwise, you are an outsider and will not be recognized by the orthodoxy." Zhu Houcong's face was cold. This was a struggle for power and orthodoxy, and no change was allowed.
Perhaps there was a possibility of outsiders overthrowing the orthodoxy in the past, but now that there are true immortals sitting in the Heavenly Court, which is recognized by the will of heaven and earth, it is destined that no one can compete.
"Come here, take out some spiritual materials from the royal treasury and send them to the Longxi Li family, saying that it is my reward." Zhu Houcong suddenly remembered something, smiled on his face, and ordered.
"I obey your order!" Huang Jin, who was standing outside the palace, responded immediately.
Although curious, he never asked more questions.
"The Longxi Li family has extraordinary luck. Perhaps it is worth it for me to make a move and make a favor." Zhu Houcong remembered what happened in the bloody trial.
There were twelve people who joined Pang Hong to seize the fruit of the sacred tree. All of them swallowed a fruit of the sacred tree, but only three of them succeeded in coming out, including the head of the Longxi Li family, Li Tianwang.
Pang Hong, Reverend Ku Rong, and Li Tianwang are the three biggest beneficiaries of this sacred tree fruit plan. Even the four brothers of the Mo family who initiated this plan did not make it to the end.
Indeed, when the situation was not good, the four brothers of the Mo family made a decision and decisively traded the remaining sacred tree fruits, giving up the hot potato in their hands and exchanging them for rich resources.
But this only made the human race strongmen no longer deal with them, while the demon race strongmen completely targeted them.
Not to mention that these demon race strongmen were angry that the four people refused to trade with them, there were also some special means of the demon race. They believed that even if the four people swallowed the sacred tree fruit, they could refine the four people and return to the source to get the medicinal properties of the sacred tree fruit.
In addition, when they traded the fruits, they exchanged for so many cultivation resources, which was also a huge amount of wealth. Even many powerful overlords would feel jealous.
Adding two to two, although these human beings’ powerful overlords didn’t want to cause the dislike of the true immortals because of their face, they would attack the Mo brothers.
But these powerful overlords also let it go and would not help when the four brothers were ambushed by the demons.
After waiting for the demons to ambushed the four brothers of the Mo family, they would take action, not only to seize resources, but also to avenge the four brothers of the Mo family and show righteousness.
Although such behavior seems a bit immoral, it does not violate the rules.
Even in this bloody trial, life and death are determined by fate. Even if they are human beings, they have no obligation to help, and it is not even immoral.
In the final analysis, money moves people’s hearts. The four brothers of the Mo family have too shallow an understanding of themselves. They are the most concerned about the fruits of the sacred tree. After throwing away these hot potatoes, they can protect themselves.
After all, the four brothers thought that they had all been promoted to the realm of the strongest, and that they could fight against the strongest overlord together, so no one would target them again.
But they underestimated the madness of the demons, and even more underestimated the hatred of the Golden Behemoths for them. In the end, they died and their souls were not included in the list of gods.
This time, except for the surviving Pang Hong, Reverend Ku Rong, and Li Tianwang, the people who participated in seizing the sacred tree, although they were promoted to the realm of the strongest with the power of the sacred tree fruit, and they also comprehended the mysteries of the immortal way in advance, but in the end they died and their souls were not included in the list of gods.
Whether it was a profit or a loss, it was probably only they themselves knew.
But no matter what, this time, taking the fruit of the sacred tree is also a great achievement. Even if these people return to the Conferred God List, they will wait for the destruction of the demon race in the future. After the establishment of the Heavenly Court, they will definitely have a place on the Conferred God List.
Of course, the remaining three people who can successfully walk out of this bloody trial will gain more benefits.
After the end of this bloody trial, the conflict between the human race and the demon race was temporarily suppressed. The strong men of the two races, under the command of the True Immortal, continued to search for the traces of those innate gods and demons.
But they all know that the contradictions and hatreds between the human race and the demon race have reached a peak and are difficult to eliminate.
After waiting for each of them to deal with the problems of the innate gods and demons, it will be the time for the two major races to fight the final life and death battle.
The human race and the demon race are preparing for war. Many of their forbidden formations, forbidden magic weapons and artifacts are unsealed at this moment, just to fight for the final victory.
"The young master showed his might in the bloody trial this time, which really made my name in Shenxiao spread far and wide. It's a cause for celebration!" Yu Zhenzi congratulated Pang Hong who had returned.
Pang Hong said modestly: "Uncle Yu Zhenzi, you are joking. It's just luck that I didn't encounter a strong opponent. I was lucky to complete this mission. I am lucky not to embarrass my master."
After that, he looked at Yu Zhenzi and asked: "I wonder if my master is here?"
"The True Lord has been in seclusion these days." Yu Zhenzi replied: "But the True Lord has already given instructions for the young master's return. Whether it is staying in Shenxiao Mountain for seclusion, or returning to the battlefield between the two clans to continue to garrison, or traveling around the world to search for the traces of the innate gods and demons, everything is up to you to decide."
Although Pei Xuanjing knew that Pang Hong was about to return, he also had some things to do.
Moreover, Pang Hong has grown to this point, and he is within reach of the immortal path. He does not need too much guidance from himself. What he needs next is for him to walk his own path independently. Pei Xuanjing is not suitable to intervene too much.
Therefore, no matter what Pang Hong does next, he can just let it go. Anyway, everything is backed by his master, so he does not need to think too much.
Pang Hong also understood this point. After pondering for a while, he said: "In this case, I will adjust on the mountain for a few days, and then go to see those innate gods and demons."
