The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 739: Chapter 689: Has this Emperor ever feared any of you?

“The discussion of the human race’s strongest contenders was originally of no concern to us. But the Sky Wasteland is not solely for the human race to take possession. How could the human race monopolize it all?” said the Lion Emperor in a cold voice.

How could they not know about this plot by the human race and let the human race take all the benefits alone?

The relationship between the human race and the Demon Race is complex, but fundamentally, they exist in a state of balance with neither able to exterminate the other. However, if the human race monopolizes the benefits of this fusion of the two worlds, the power of the human race will inevitably surpass that of the Demon Race. This is a situation that the Demon Race absolutely does not want to see.

Indeed, this is what the human race’s strongest contenders thought in their hearts.

These old demons chose precisely this time to appear. They probably guessed the intentions of these old demons.

“We agreed in the Sky Wasteland that day that each will employ their own methods and in the end, the merit speaks for itself,” said the Master of Xuantian Sect, frowning.

Regarding this issue, it was decided during the meeting organized by the Sky Mechanism Pavilion in the Sky Wasteland that the human race and the Demon Race will not interfere with each other. In the end, whoever contributes more to Heaven and Earth will reap more benefits.

Now, these old demons appear here, implying that they want to break the pact. At this thought, the Master of Xuantian Sect felt a surge of anger.

“You humans devised quite the plan. You have guides in the Ancestral Land, but what about our Demon Race?” King Niu rebuked angrily.

These humans are crafty. The initial negotiation was well-intended, but it was only after the Fox King reviewed the event that they found out they had fallen for the human race’s trap despite their caution.

To integrate the essence of the Sky Wasteland into the Ancestral Land, it is not merely about manipulating the Sky Wasteland but also about guiding it in the Ancestral Land.

There are many strong individuals in the Demon Race, and it’s easy for them to accomplish these tasks in the Sky Wasteland, but in the Ancestral Land, they have no way of doing so.

Although the Heaven and Earth of the Ancestral Land have fully recovered and local demonic beasts have begun to grow, there are no strong contenders like Pei Xuanjing of the Great Ming, who can win the favor of Heaven and Earth’s will and possess the capability to carry the task.

Even if they want to wait for the Demon Race’s strongest contenders to develop, it would take a considerable amount of time despite having many strong contenders of the Demon Race providing training and resources.

This is the biggest flaw in this plan for the many powerful members of the Demon Race.

Sometimes, it’s not about moving too slow, but the opponent moving too fast.

If the human race and the Demon Race start from the same line, the Demon Race will nurture their strongest contenders while the human race nurtures the strong contenders in the Ancestral Land. In the end, it comes down to who uses their methods the fastest, and there won’t be much difference between the two races.

However, the situation is such that the human race already has their strong contenders rising and is ready to guide the process. The Demon Race, on the other hand, is still primitive and unprepared.

This is not a matter of who is slower or faster. It’s a matter of whether you have it or not.

Knowing the human race, if given such a chance, they will seize all efforts to keep the Demon Race from catching up.

If they stick to the initial pact and each race makes their own arrangements, they may fall into the human race’s trap and lose all benefits.

“That’s your problem, how could you blame us?” said the Master of Xuantian Sect disdainfully.

Indeed, when they devised this plan, they had intended to take advantage of the Demon Race, using Pei Xuanjing’s move to buy some time. They hoped to seize a large portion of the Demon Race’s share, even if they couldn’t monopolize all the benefits. Even when their plan was revealed, they wouldn’t admit it.

“I don’t care. The previous conditions were unfair, and I, the Lion Emperor, as well as the Demon Race, will not accept this,” said the Lion Emperor in a deep voice.

No matter what ploys the human race comes up with, as long as the Demon Race is at a disadvantage, they cannot possibly agree to it.

“Lion Emperor, are you intending to reignite a war between the human and demon races?” the Jiuren Sword Saint said coldly.

“What is there to fear, we may as well fight to the death,” said the Tiger King in a deep voice, unfazed by the threat.

“Right, if you humans want to reap the benefits, don’t even think about it,” King Niu said angrily.

Although the other powerful demons did not speak, they shared the same sentiment.

“Are you suggesting that the human race is scared of you?” said the Blood Fiend Ancestor with a cold smile. His eyes swept over the old demons, “My Red Blood Knife hasn’t drawn the blood of a powerful being for many years.”

For the strongest individuals of the human race, those of the Righteous Path and the Demonic Way often conflict, but their priorities are clear when it involves the survival of their race.

When the righteous path flourishes, demonic way descends, and when the demonic way rises, the righteous path shrinks. This cycle is acceptable to both righteous and demonic powerhouses, even if they are at a disadvantage, they wouldn’t face extinction.

However, conflicts between the human and demon races are racial battles and there’s no tolerance in it. Despite their current peaceful coexistence, if there’s a chance to wipe each other out, they wouldn’t show any mercy.

Unless some lunatics lost their sanity due to cultivation, forgetting even their racial identity. But other than those, there would be no issues when dealing with a matter of this magnitude.

“Am I scared of you?” The Tiger King’s eyes flashed with cold light, showing no signs of backing down.

The human and demon races have been in conflict for countless years, neither is afraid of the other. It’s not about intimidation, there have been life-and-death battles between strong contenders.

“Lion Emperor, what do you want in the end?” the Master of Xuantian Sect stepped forward, looking directly at him with a cold gaze.

The Lion Emperor was originally a regular lion. After a fateful opportunity, he embarked on the cultivation path and turned into a legendary golden lion, becoming one of the strongest beings in the Demon Race after reaching the Strongest Realm.

Now, the Lion Emperor suppresses powerful beings of the Demon Race with his formidable power, unifying the Demon Race by name, becoming the lone ruler.

Because of this, the fragments of the Demon Race joined forces to form a strength to oppose the human race.

“How I’ll act depends on how you humans plan to,” the Lion Emperor calmly looked at the Master of Xuantian Sect and the human race’s strongest contenders, saying, “But the previous plan, our Demon Race definitely won’t accept.”

The previous plan is detrimental to the Demon Race; they were clearly at a disadvantage, they can’t accept it.

“It seems a battle is inevitable,” said the Master of the Xuantian Sect.

He originally hoped for a resolution, but the Lion Emperor tearing up the pact was beyond his tolerance.

When the other side goes against the pact, it means that they want to redistribute shares, which would greatly conflict with their anticipated shares of benefits.

“Am I supposed to be afraid of you?” the Lion Emperor responded defiantly.
