The Jade Emperor smiled and pursed his lips. He did not answer Wang Ran's question immediately, but pointed to the teacup in front of Wang Ran: "Take a sip, it's good tea."
Wang Ran was stunned for a moment, he suppressed his inner doubts, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
In an instant, the world spun.
Endless darkness was surging in all directions. Earth-shaking shouts of killing were heard from the darkness. Unspeakable giants were moving in the darkness. There were strong fluctuations of power everywhere.
Wang Ran looked around and it was obviously a battlefield.
"Tian Yan 49, escape 1."
The Jade Emperor's voice came from above his head. His voice was extremely majestic, as if he was carrying the decree of heaven. Every word made Wang Ran's heart tremble.
"The one that escaped was the only variable that determined the fate of all living beings. It could bring hope to all living beings, or it could bring destruction to all living beings. However, because we had angered Heaven by exploring the way forward, the one that escaped became Heaven's sword to kill us."
"The dragon and phoenix are in great trouble, and the lich is on the rise."
"The lich calamity, the human race is striving for supremacy."
"The first two generations of the protagonists of the world both reached the peak of their power under the rule of the Heavenly Dao. When they tried to go further, the Heavenly Dao felt threatened, so the Heavenly Dao sent down a catastrophe and destroyed the two of them one after another."
"Now the human race has also reached this point."
There was contempt in the Emperor's voice.
"The Heavenly Dao exerted its power over the universe. It used the spirits and remains of the Dragon, Phoenix, and Lich that had escaped to create a new race called the Red Refiners, which replaced the human race in ruling the world."
In the darkness, thunder occasionally flashed, and the bright light illuminated a strange figure with a red body.
"The foundation of the Chilian clan is above the dragon, phoenix and witch lich. They are born with great power, and are not inferior to the dragon, phoenix and witch lich of the past. It's just that they were born young and have not yet developed great wisdom. They only respect the way of heaven and swear to destroy our human race for the way of heaven."
Listening to the Jade Emperor's words, Wang Ran fell into deep thought.
The Way of Heaven - This word is very common in novels about cultivating immortals. Cultivators often have to comprehend the Way of Heaven and then survive the tribulations brought down by the Way of Heaven before they can make further progress in their cultivation.
According to the Jade Emperor's description, it seems that the way of heaven can no longer play tricks.
When practitioners reach the peak and want to go further, the Heavenly Dao believes that this will pose a threat to itself, so it simply destroys the practitioners and replaces them with new ones.
Dragons and phoenixes died because of this, liches died because of this, and now it is the turn of the human race.
Chi Lian - This race was created by Heaven to replace the human race as the fourth generation protagonist of heaven and earth. They are similar to the human race of the past.
Wang Ran understood why the Jade Emperor said that the Chi Lian clan had not developed great wisdom, because according to the growth paths of the first three generations of the protagonists of heaven and earth, the Chi Lian clan would one day end up in the same situation as the Dragon, Phoenix, Witch, and Demon.
When the time comes and they want to go further, the Heavenly Dao will find a way to eliminate them and replace them with another group of creatures as the protagonists of heaven and earth.
Since the Chilian clan was born with great power, they would most likely reach this day much earlier than humans, perhaps after the war between them and humans ended.
If there were wise men among the Chi Lian clan, they would not follow the will of Heaven and fight to the death with the immortals, but would join forces with the immortals to reach higher heights, and even subdue Heaven together.
"However, our clan has learned the lesson of the defeat of the dragon, phoenix and the lich, and has been keeping a low profile for a long time. At this point, our strength is several times stronger than the dragon, phoenix and the lich combined."
There was contempt in the Jade Emperor's voice.
"Just the Chilian clan..."
"They are no match for our people at all!"
Wang Ran showed a puzzled expression.
Since the Chi Lian clan is no match for the human race, why has the human race been forced to live in a corner and even have their orthodoxy banned
He once again thought of Yang Jian's three-pointed, double-edged sword. That magical weapon had been whittled down into a fire-pointed spear by the Chi Lian clan. Why did the Jade Emperor still say that the Chi Lian clan was no match for humans
"To destroy the Chilian clan, even though it will cost our clan some price, the final outcome will definitely be our clan's victory."
The Jade Emperor then explained Wang Ran’s doubts.
"But the Chilian Clan is just a chess piece of the Heavenly Dao. If this chess piece is lost, it can create another one. When the next chess piece is lost, it can still create another one. This cycle will never end."
"Our people will be exhausted and have no time to do anything else."
Hearing this, Wang Ran’s eyelids twitched.
The Jade Emperor might want to...
"There is only one real enemy for our clan, and that is Heaven!" The Jade Emperor changed the subject and said in a resounding voice, "As long as we can compress the time it takes to defeat the Chilian clan from one epoch to a moment, our clan can refine it before Heaven creates the next chess piece!"
Wang Ran was shocked.
Refining the Way of Heaven! What a great spirit!
He is truly worthy of being the third generation protagonist of heaven and earth who replaced the Dragon, Phoenix, Lich, and learned lessons from the blood and tears of his predecessors. His gaze went beyond the opponents who were competing with him for the position of protagonist and fell directly on the Heavenly Dao who controlled everything.
but…
No matter how weak the Chilian clan is, they are still a powerful clan comparable to the Dragon, Phoenix, and Lich. How can the time to defeat them be compressed from one era to just one moment
A Yuanhui lasts for more than 120,000 years!
"In order to achieve this goal, we forbeared and evaded, using the power of the three great treasures to create a world sea that even the Heavenly Dao could hardly notice, and we lay dormant in the world sea, waiting for the opportunity."
"In order to make that time come, we created a simulator and filmed you into the real world, entrusting you with an important task."
Wang Ran looked confused: "Me?"
Although he gained some powerful legendary talents through the simulator, there were many strong men in the Chilian clan. Even if his legendary talents had no cooldown time, it was impossible to compress a war that lasted for an entire era into an instant!
"Don't underestimate yourself." The Jade Emperor spoke slowly to dispel Wang Ran's doubts, "Your talents were all stolen from the Heavenly Dao by the three great treasures. They are all the supreme laws in the universe."
"When the war begins, you only need to keep using Feng Qi Wu to attach to my body, and you don't need to worry about the rest."
Wang Ran was stunned.
Feng Qiwu...
[Feng Qiwu] can block fatal injuries for the person he is attached to, and can also share talents with the person he is attached to. At the same time, if he himself does not die after receiving a fatal injury, he can also reset [Feng Qiwu].
If he joins forces with a truly strong man, this strong man will definitely become a life harvester on the battlefield.
"But before that, I have one more thing to ask of you." The Jade Emperor's voice became cautious.
"What's the matter?" Wang Ran asked subconsciously.
The Jade Emperor took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I need you to go to the Heaven Palace one Yuan ago and retrieve the Nine-Layered Pagoda of the True Spirit that I buried in the years."
