Chapter 1273 - 1267: Emergence of Various Factions
Why fight?
These four words echoed in the grand hall, leaving many of the senior members of the Wood Spirit Clan momentarily stunned. Why not fight?
"Clan Leader, that is a second-level divine item, capable of helping beings break through to the Dao Saint Realm. If we acquire a large amount of Hongmeng Purple Qi, our clan could hope to become the strongest clan in the Celestial Universe!"
An elder stood up and bowed with respect.
"Precisely!"
"After obtaining the Hongmeng Purple Qi, our clan can rise swiftly!"
"Over the years, we’ve been suppressed by the Flame Clan, retreating step by step. If we get the Hongmeng Purple Qi, I’m confident we can turn the tide!"
Other high-ranking members of the Wood Spirit Clan chimed in, their eyes blazing with greed.
They looked as if they had already obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi.
"But Hongmeng Purple Qi is the creation of the myriad realms; is it appropriate for us to seize it?"
Wood Blossom spoke softly.
"Why wouldn’t it be?"
"A treasure of the world belongs to the capable!"
The elder who spoke first said, a glimmer of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
When the stakes are high enough, they can alter a person or a race, even those naturally gentle like the Wood Spirit Clan are no exception.
"Are the elders certain that the Wood Spirit Clan can snatch the Hongmeng Purple Qi? Or are they certain that after obtaining it, the clan can oppose the Celestial Universe?"
Wood Blossom shook her head, posing two questions.
Her voice turned cold, with a hint of chill, making the temperature in the hall drop suddenly.
The grand elder was thunderstruck, stunned in place, as he hadn’t really considered these two questions.
Is the Wood Spirit Clan powerful?
It can only be said they’re not weak!
In their palace located in Xuan City, they rank 130th.
This means in the vast Celestial Universe, there are at least 129 forces stronger than the Wood Spirit Clan, possibly more.
"Issue the order, no member of the Wood Spirit Clan is allowed to go to the myriad realms!"
Wood Blossom looked around at everyone, giving the command in a deep voice.
"As you command!"
Many elders stood up, saluting with respect.
After Wood Blossom’s reminder, they realized that the Wood Spirit Clan lacks the power to change the cosmic order and that rashly entering the myriad realms would only bring about disaster.
Divine objects!
Only the capable possess them!
...
Spirit Sovereign Realm!
Renowned as the number one realm in the Celestial Universe.
Within the vast Spirit Sovereign Realm, 600 super worlds are distributed in an orderly manner. Around each super world, there are 60 great thousand worlds, forming a massive galaxy.
As for medium and small thousand worlds, they have long been eliminated by the Spirit Sovereign Realm!
And above all the super worlds, there is a continent, not large in area, not even as big as a small thousand world, yet it exudes a faint essence, suppressing countless worlds.
Essence, that is the energy only found in the Cosmic River.
It is rumored that to create a continent with essence, the Spirit Sovereign Clan plundered thousands of civilizations and exchanged for a fragmentary source mine at the Immortal Treasure Pavilion.
At the center of the continent, in the Celestial Spirit Empire Palace.
Over sixty figures in luxurious robes and high crowns stood, their auras overwhelming, dominating all around.
These people are the strongest Dao Saints.
Above all lives, there are three jade chairs, occupied by an old man, a woman, and a child.
Above the three, there is an emperor chair, where the Master of the Spirit Sovereign reclines, dressed in a golden robe, with imperial might radiating aggressively, astonishing time and space, invincible in one region of the universe.
"Everyone, should we conquer the myriad worlds?"
The Master of the Spirit Sovereign looked down at everyone, his eyes sharp as he asked plainly.
Immediately, a buzz of discussion arose below.
"Clan Leader, I think obtaining the Hongmeng Purple Qi is not easy; we can observe for a while!"
A middle-aged Dao Saint took a step forward, bowing respectfully.
"What are the opinions of the three tribe elders?"
The Master of the Spirit Sovereign nodded, signaling the middle-aged Dao Saint to step back and asked the three figures on the jade chairs.
"Clan Leader, we must contend!"
The old man was the first to speak.
He wielded a scepter, his gaze deep, his white hair flying about, but most special was his beard, which was incredibly dense, trailing on the ground.
They must contend!
The Master of the Spirit Sovereign remained silent, understanding all too well what this meant.
In this world, there are too many things that are done out of necessity. Maybe doing them won’t bring benefits, but not doing them will certainly bring harm.
Just like the matter of seizing the Hongmeng Purple Qi. According to the information from the Immortal Treasure Pavilion, the heaven-defying effects of the Hongmeng Purple Qi are enough to break the balance of the Celestial Universe.
Although the Spirit Sovereign Realm is the foremost force in the Celestial Universe, it doesn’t mean it has no enemies.
On the contrary, a tall tree catches the wind!
In this Celestial Universe, countless civilizations desire to bring down the Spirit Sovereign Realm, even to replace it.
If the adversaries of the Spirit Sovereign Realm obtain the Hongmeng Purple Qi and foster a multitude of powerful Dao Saints, it would undoubtedly be a fatal threat to the Spirit Sovereign Realm.
Thinking of this, the Master of the Spirit Sovereign’s expression turned cold, with a chilling murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
He would not allow any existence within the Celestial Universe to threaten the Spirit Sovereign Realm!
"The Hongmeng Purple Qi, I must have it!"
The Master of the Spirit Sovereign slowly clenched his fist, speaking coldly.
Yet in his eyes, there was an endless greed.
...
Immortal Jade Realm!
The second-ranked force in the Celestial Universe and the greatest adversary of the Spirit Sovereign Realm.
In the main hall, the warriors of the Immortal Jade Realm gathered, with a hint of excitement on each face.
"Immortal Master, this is great news!"
"Who would have thought the Celestial Universe harbors such a treasure like the Hongmeng Purple Qi? If we get it, we can certainly defeat the damned Spirit Sovereign Realm!"
The leading brawny man said, with fierce light surging in his eyes.
In his hand, he held two massive axes, covered with dao patterns, sharp and tearing the world apart.
At the highest point, the Master of the Immortal Jade Realm sat quietly, slender, dressed in a white robe, with a handsome appearance like a gentleman in a painting, rather than a realm master.
His eyes were bright as stars, watching the excited strong figures below, falling into deep thought.
Hongmeng Purple Qi!
This is indeed a hot potato!
He is among the few in the Celestial Universe who, upon hearing of the Hongmeng Purple Qi, could still remain clear-headed, seeing through the great karma and disaster involved at a glance.
But unlike Wood Blossom, the Wood Spirit Clan refrained from stepping in due to their weakness, whereas his powerful Immortal Jade Realm could stir the universe.
"Spirit Sovereign!"
Suddenly, the Master of the Immortal Jade Realm thought of his old adversary, the Master of the Spirit Sovereign. What would he do if he were the Master of the Spirit Sovereign?
Naturally, seize the Hongmeng Purple Qi to stabilize his position.
In that case...
"Enough, no more talking!"
As if making a decision, the Master of the Immortal Jade Realm interrupted the crowd’s discussions and said solemnly, "I need to go out for a while. When I return, we’ll decide!"
With that, he disappeared before anyone could react.
Besides the above-mentioned forces, all top civilizations in the Celestial Universe were stirred by the matter of the Hongmeng Purple Qi.
Most civilizations were filled with excitement and dispatched their armies!
However, there were also a few civilizations that avoided this matter like a plague, not daring to get involved!
