Chapter 454: Negotiations

“When?”

“Hmm?”

“I meant, when did you find out about my ident.i.ty?”

“Since a long time ago. When I first saw you in the Fire Sect, I already recognized you.” Gongye Yuyu laughed lightly, as if he was mocking Victor.

“Since you knew my ident.i.ty, why didn’t you expose me? Perhaps in the Fire Sect, I was completely unrelated to you. However, now that I’ve come to the Central Plains Sect Alliance, you have every reason to expose me, don’t you?

“Besides, in the Hundred Thousand Mountain, you had every reason to keep the mountain treasure, but why did you leave in the end?”

“Why do I have to expose you? It won’t do me any good.”

“It won’t bring you any harm either.”

“No, there will. First of all, when I first saw you in the Hundred Thousand Mountain, I already knew your ident.i.ty. If that’s the case, once those three animals found out your ident.i.ty, they would definitely hand the mountain treasure to you. Moreover, at that time, my focus wasn’t on the Hundred Thousand Mountain, so it wasn’t worth it to get into a stalemate with them.

“The mountain treasure didn’t belong to me in the first place. Moreover, I have no use for it.

“As for why I didn’t expose you, hehe, there’s no need for that at all.

“Our relations.h.i.+p isn’t hostile, or to say the opposite, we can cooperate.

“What you want is that wisp of remnant soul, and what the Xiao family wants is only that enormous soul power. As for who the remnant soul belonged to, they don’t care at all.

“Therefore, if you can provide sufficient soul power for Xiao Chenggan to break through to the nascent soul realm, I can help you obtain that wisp of remnant soul.”

“Why should I believe you?”

If it was possible, Victor really did not want to deal with people like Gongye Yuyu. He was afraid of being betrayed by him while being oblivious.

“You have to understand, although I’m not an enemy of the Central Plains Sect Alliance, I don’t necessarily hope for the Central Plains Sect Alliance to establish the Dao in the Northern Plains. I don’t think we can come to an agreement.”

“We will, we definitely will. As long as you don’t want that wisp of remnant soul to disappear, you will agree with me. As for the Central Plains Sect Alliance? Hehe, do you think I care?”

Gongye Yuyu laughed coldly and slowly stood up, revealing his cultivation base.

“What realm am I at?”

“The completion stage of core formation realm, with a solid foundation.”

“Right? Why is it that I, a core formation cultivator, can be the altar master when normally a nascent soul realm cultivation base is required? Strategy is just one of the factors.

“I need the Central Plains Sect Alliance. Only when the Central Plains Sect Alliance helps form a Dao in the Northern Plains will I have enough fate to advance to the nascent soul realm. Therefore, before my goal is achieved, I will not leave the Central Plains Sect Alliance. Similarly, before my goal is achieved, anyone who obstructs me… Will be killed by me with my own hands!

“Of course, if you think that you can fight me, feel free to attack.”

Gongye Yuyu stood with his hands behind his back. In Victor’s eyes, he was like a fierce tiger waiting for an opportunity. As long as Victor showed even the slightest bit of hostility, he would attack without hesitation!

However, Victor knew that he was still not a match for Gongye Yuyu at the moment.

Unless he used the Fusion Technique, Victor would only be able to fight against Gongye Yuyu when he advanced to the nascent soul realm. After all, the latter was able to face a mid-stage nascent soul beast king head-on without being at a disadvantage!

“I have one last question. Your cultivation system.”

“I created it. No, to be precise, I perfected it.”

When he said this, Gongye Yuyu’s tone was filled with undisguised pride.

Indeed, only a handful of people in the five plains could create a cultivation system. Gongye Yuyu could be considered a genius.

Although according to him, he had only perfected an incomplete cultivation system, which was equally stunning.

“As expected. However, what do you mean by saying that you need fate?”

“I mean it literally. Although the current Central Plains Sect Alliance has already dominated the Central Plains, it’s still far from enough. If I want to advance to the nascent soul realm, there are only three ways. First, I have to go to the Western Plains and absorb the fate of the Dynasty to advance. But obviously, Emperor Yan won’t let me do that.

“Second, I have to nurture the Central Plains Sect Alliance into an enormous existence that can rival the Western Plains Dynasty. Unfortunately, I don’t have the ability. Moreover, it’s impossible for the Central Plains to have an existence that can rival the Western Plains Dynasty.

“Then, there’s only the third way. Use the establishment of a Dao in the Northern Plains as an excuse to absorb the fate of the great cauldron and advance to the nascent soul realm. This is the simplest and also the most reliable method.

“After all, the fate of the Northern Plains has been ranked first among the five plains since ancient times. The fate that I need is just a drop in the bucket for them.”

“However, if the fate is completely absorbed by you, the Central Plains Sect Alliance will also fall apart.”

“It won’t be that fast. The dissipation of fate will take at least five years before it completely disintegrates. However, in these five years, the fate will also gradually recover. Therefore, at most, the Central Plains Sect Alliance will be removed from the Northern Plains. Such a consequence is acceptable.”

Surprisingly, Gongye Yuyu did not hide his purpose from Victor, even though he could have kept it a secret from Victor.

“What about after the nascent soul realm? What if one day, you want to advance to the soul formation realm, tribulation transcending realm, and advance to the immortal soul realm? I’m afraid that the fate of a dynasty or even a plain is not enough for you, right?”

“In between, there are some ancient secrets. Do you know why the Eastern Plains became like this?”

Hearing this, Victor’s expression changed, and his gaze became serious.

“The fate of the Eastern Plains has been refined and absorbed by someone. That’s why it has fallen to its current state.”

Hearing this, Victor stood rooted to the spot. Gongye Yuyu’s words were like a clap of thunder that exploded in his heart.

“Don’t joke around. Even tribulation transcending cultivators wouldn’t be able to refine the fate of an entire plain, much less a soul formation cultivator!”

“Hehe, I never said that that person was in the soul formation realm. I once read about this ancient secret in an ancient book. From the moment he stepped onto the path of cultivation, he used fate as spiritual energy to advance.

“At first, it was the fate of a family. Gradually, it evolved into a village, a force, and a city.

“In the end, what he needed was the fate of an entire plain to break through the shackles.

“Of course, he knew what the consequences would be. Once he refined the fate of a plain, it would take him at least several thousand years to recover.

“However, there were drawbacks to doing so.

“The mottled fate made his cultivation base more and more unstable. In the end, he couldn’t even use his power. Eventually, this person died in the Northern Plains. All of his fate was fed back to the Northern Plains.”

“It’s precisely because of this that the Northern Plains became the leader of the five plains. This was because it contains the fate of two plains. Hence, because of the lack of fate, the Eastern Plains was reduced to the land abandoned by immortals,” said Victor.

“That’s right, that’s what I meant,” said Gongye Yuyu.
