Chapter 260 A meaningless battle

Yaochi, a grand gathering of all races.

Ever since Li Zhi entered the Yao Chi Holy Land in a high-profile manner, it has given a shot of adrenaline to the human cultivators who remained outside Yao Chi.

They all thought that it would be the turn of the strong men from the major human forces to appear next, so as not to let those ancient creatures have all the glory.

But this expectation was soon dashed.

Instead of any powerful human warriors coming, a domineering holy ape appeared, carrying a huge black gold stick.

It was a powerful and domineering fighting holy ape, and the only descendant of the ancient holy emperor. As soon as the holy prince appeared, he killed a king beside the heavenly prince with a stick.

Then the Holy Prince directly confronted the Heavenly Prince.

Several kings around the prince of heaven were killed on the spot, showing the tyranny and power of the ancient creatures to the fullest.

One was the descendant of the ancient holy emperor, the other was the descendant of the ancient heavenly emperor. A fierce battle was about to take place, but in the end they stopped the fighting after being persuaded by other cultivators of the ancient royal family.

Although the two ancient princes failed to engage in direct combat, the strength they displayed made many human cultivators feel despair.

The feud between the Holy Prince and the Heavenly Prince was actually a manifestation of internal strife within the ancient race.

However, no matter who wins or loses, it is not good news for the human race today.

Because one of them represents the Ancient Saint Emperor, and the other represents the Ancient Heavenly Emperor, rather than representing the human race of today's Beidou.

Although the Holy Prince is relatively close to the Holy Body of the human race, in the eyes of most human cultivators, the Holy Prince and the Heavenly Prince are both representatives of the ancient royal family and there is no essential difference between them.

"Those who are not of my race must have different hearts. The aspirations of the ancients are not the same as others." This truth was understood by all the human cultivators who were watching.

Even though Ye Fan and the Holy Prince seemed to have a good relationship, in the grand gathering of all races, the Holy Prince represented the lineage of the ancient fighting holy ape, not the human or demon race.

When the bloody conflict between the Holy Prince and the Heavenly Prince outside Yao Chi temporarily subsided, the divine bell of Yao Chi rang continuously for several days in a row, and strong men from various ancient tribes flew in one after another.

The powerful human being that everyone was looking forward to still did not show up, causing many human cultivators to feel despair.

Looking at the ancient creatures of various races, who were standing side by side with kings, strolling leisurely in the Yaochi, many human cultivators were angry but dared not speak out.

It is obvious that the holy land of Yao Chi is the inheritance left by the great emperor of the human race, Queen Mother of the West. However, the ancient creatures do not show any fear at all. Instead, they seem to be here for a trip.

This made many human cultivators feel aggrieved.

During this time, Yuan Gu, the eighth-generation grandson of Emperor Yuan from the Primitive Lake, laughed at the human race and said, "The human race is really ridiculous. The grand meeting of all races is about to be held, but the human race has only sent a barbarian king, and there are not many kings who can come on stage. When the meeting officially begins, the ancestral kings of all races will come in person. I wonder if there is anyone in your human race who can sit on an equal footing with the ancestral king. By then, you will be too shameless to have anyone sitting at the same table with you, right?"

Although the words are harsh, Yuangu has expressed the reality that the human race is facing today. Apart from the Barbarian King, there is indeed no other king.

Of course, some people also spoke up to refute: "In addition to the Barbarian King, our human race also has a Taoist priest coming."

It would have been fine if Li Zhi had not been mentioned. But when Li Zhi was mentioned, the ancient creatures burst into laughter and asked, "Where is that Taoist priest?"

Since entering the sacred land of Yao Chi, Li Zhi has become extremely low-key and has not seen any guests at all.

Outsiders don't know where he is.

In fact, Li Zhi did not leave Yaochi, but changed his appearance and mingled among various ethnic groups.

When Li Zhi heard people talking about him, he ran over to watch the show.

Then Li Zhi heard some speechless remarks.

An ancient king whose race was unknown said, "That Taoist priest has great achievements. We admire his strength. But I have doubts whether that Taoist priest is a cultivator of your race. You humans should stop flattering yourself. That immortal is obviously a Taoist priest. It seems that he has little relationship with the various religions of your race."

As soon as these words were spoken, many human cultivators broke down their defenses.

What the Eternal King said made a lot of sense. Since ancient times, monks who considered themselves Taoists often did not discuss their camps based on their racial origins.

The nine great celestial masters of the mythological period were all Taoists, but their ethnic origins were different.

However, no one has ever discussed their identities based on their racial origins, whether they are the emperor of the human race or the ancient emperor of the ancient race.

Those Heavenly Lords are so detached from this world that even most of the powerful ones cannot figure out their true race.

Just like the Bodhisattvas and Buddhas in Buddhism, once they enter Buddhism and become Bodhisattvas or Buddhas, their previous racial origin becomes meaningless and people in the world will downplay their racial origin.

Whether it is Taoism or Buddhism, in the perception of the world, both are existences that transcend the concept of race.

Neither the ancient creatures nor the current human cultivators have any objection to this concept.

For example, although Taoist Chilong was born into the demon clan, compared to his sworn brother, the world-famous peerless demon king - Peacock King, few people would simply treat Taoist Chilong as a demon clan giant like Peacock King or Golden-winged Old Peng King. Most people regard him as a terrifying old Taoist.

Now, those ancient creatures look at Li Zhi in the same way as the human cultivators look at the Taoist Red Dragon. They all regard him as a true Taoist, rather than a king who came from a powerful human force.

Some human cultivators even claimed that Li Zhi represented the human race, but the ancient creatures did not recognize this.

It makes people feel very depressed.

Li Zhi was stunned by what he saw.

Unexpectedly, because of his identity as a Taoist priest, he was excluded from the ranks of human kings by the ancient creatures.

It really opened Li Zhi's eyes.

Li Zhi soon understood the reason.

In the eyes of those ancient creatures, the kings who can truly represent the face of the human race should be the kings who came from the holy places or aristocratic families of the human race. For example, the king of the Jiang family, the king of the Ji family, the king of Daxia, the king of Jiuli, the king of the Feng clan, and so on.

Rather than a Taoist like Li Zhi who obviously seems to be from outside the mortal world.

According to their theory, Duan De would not be treated as the king of the human race.

But after Li Zhi thought about it carefully, he found that their theory did make some sense.

As a solitary Taoist, even if he is a king, he will not compete for territory with those ancient creatures. If he is strong enough, he will even be treated as a guest of honor by those ancient races.

Only those kings who have tribes or huge forces behind them are similar to the kings of the ancient tribes.

They need to fight for living space for the ethnic groups behind them.

Only such a conference of all races is meaningful.

Those kings who act alone cannot represent the human race because they do not have a large enough force behind them, unless they are strong enough to be a saint.

Until the ancient ancestor king appeared, the human race still had no saint to come forward.

On the surface, the human race has only Ye Fan, the only "pseudo-saint" who controls the flesh shell of a saint.

If the Princess of the Divine Silkworm had not appeared by chance, Ye Fan, the fake saint, would have been exposed.

Then, a scene of internal strife among the ancient races occurred in Yaochi. The Princess of the Divine Silkworm killed everyone and killed the ancient ancestor king.

But the human race is just an insignificant minor character in this process.

Although during this period, the List of Gods suppressed by Emperor Wu Shi on the Holy Cliff was taken down and used to intimidate the ancient tribes.

But in Li Zhi's opinion, the moment the saint of the human race took down the List of Gods of Emperor Wu Shi from the Holy Cliff, the human race had already been defeated in this conference of all races without a fight.

Both face and dignity are lost.

Although many people were extremely excited when they saw the List of Conferred Gods by Emperor Wu Shi passing over the sky of the Northern Territory with infinite imperial power, thinking that the human race was saved, Li Zhi felt that this was really shameful.

Use the List of Gods of the Wushi Emperor to intimidate all the ancient races?

It's totally disgraced the emperor of the human race.

Are those ancient creatures worthy of being intimidated by the List of Gods of the Wu Shi Great Emperor?
How could they deserve the intervention of the Great Emperor Wu Shi to intimidate them?

In Li Zhi's opinion, the List of Gods suppressed on the Holy Cliff was used to intimidate the forbidden zone of life.

Now, it is used to intimidate all the ancient races. What is the difference between this and asking adults to intervene when children are fighting? This move directly lowers the status of Emperor Wu Shi by several levels.

According to Li Zhi's idea, at this conference of all races, the saints of the human race should show up early as the masters of the Big Dipper, and be accompanied by hundreds of kings sent by major sects, plus thousands of powerful people, so that the ancient races can truly feel the power of the human race today as the master of the ancient star of the Big Dipper.

In secret, let the ancient saints sealed in the divine source make preparations.

In this way, it is more than enough to deal with the Conference of All Races.

What is the All-Clan Assembly watching?
Is it the combat power of a single saint?

In Li Zhi's opinion, this is not the case. It depends not only on the combat capability of the saint, but also on the overall strength of the race.

The Conference of All Races. The reason for holding this conference is that there are many races of ancient creatures, and they have different opinions among themselves on how to treat the human race, so this conference is held.

However, no high-level human being seriously considered this conference from the perspective of the future of the race.

Instead, he made a mistake all the way, and then Ye Fan took the unconventional approach and made rapid progress.

He even used the List of Gods of the Wushi Emperor to shock all the ancient races.

Now, the myriad ancient races, which originally had very different opinions, only need the human race to use some means to divide and disintegrate them at the conference, and then they can be split into small tribes one after another, making them unable to pose a threat to the human race.

Now, because of the List of Gods, the ancient myriad clans have directly become the ancient clan.

In order to protect themselves, those ancient small clans that could not bear the oppression of the ancient royal family or the ancient imperial family had to stand behind the ancient royal family or the ancient imperial family again.

Originally, the human race’s top leaders should have stepped forward long ago to win over and divide up the small and medium-sized races among the ancient creatures.

It even helped them get rid of the strict hierarchical oppression of ancient times.

Thereby you will have more friends and fewer enemies.

It can only be said that these human leaders in Beidou have brute force but know nothing about how to deal with a large-scale racial war.

It is obvious that 80% of the problems can be solved by doing a good job of united front work, but they insist on increasing the difficulty of the problems to 120%. I have to say that those people have really strange ideas.

Ye Fan does not have any big force behind him, nor does he know the true strength of their families. It is understandable that he wants to use his own strength and the power of the Emperor Wu Shi to intimidate the ancient clans.

But why do those native Beidou monks seem to have problems with their brains?

Li Zhi was quite puzzled by the choice they made.

No matter how powerful a saint is, he cannot protect everyone.

However, if a powerful saint has a group of kings standing behind him, the deterrent effect he produces will far exceed that of a few lonely saints.

Because every king can guard a place and protect a piece of mountains and rivers.

Having a large number of kings actually represents the number of future saints of the race.

Although the ancient creatures claim to have tens of thousands of races, when broken down into each race, their strength is actually just that.

As one of the most powerful ancient royal families, the Valley of the Gods only has three ancestral kings in charge, and there is not even a great sage-level strongman.

As for the human race as a whole, not counting the great saints sealed in the divine source, there are more than one powerful people in the world who have achieved the great sainthood.

If the major holy places and families in the East Wilderness were willing to send one or two kings to this conference, then the four immortal divine dynasties, the nine ancient countries, and the major forces of the various schools of thought and religions in Zhongzhou would also be willing to send one or two kings.

Then the number of human kings is definitely not weaker than that of the major ancient royal families present, and may even be more than their combined number of kings.

With this power, plus the number of imperial soldiers in the hands of the human race, as long as things develop according to the normal process, no ancient race would dare to act presumptuously.

Aren’t they afraid that humans will defeat them one by one?
At that time, even the major ancient royal families will have to re-examine the true power of the human race.

Unfortunately, all of this came to naught with the appearance of the List of Gods by Emperor Wu Shi.

It's too late.

In Li Zhi's opinion, it was a waste of talent for the human race to use an otherworldly emperor-level powerhouse like the Wu Shi Emperor to intimidate ancient creatures. It was by no means a glory for the human race, but rather a manifestation of human cowardice.

Now that the emperor has been sacrificed, what else is there to talk about? The outcome has already been determined.

But will the losing party accept the defeat?
In Li Zhi's opinion, no, the Jedi will not accept it. They will only think that the human race won unfairly. It should have been a competition of the same level, but in the end it turned into a situation where the big bullied the small.

Since the strong are bullying the weak, they won't feel ashamed if they temporarily admit defeat and retreat.

But can the human race keep Emperor Wu Shi "alive"?

In the future, when the Great Emperor Wu Shi is confirmed to have "passed away", what awaits the human race will be a revenge that is ten times more brutal than what it is now.

The feeling of bullying the weak and winning unfairly will never be an obstacle in the minds of those ancient races.

This is a grand gathering of all races. Even if the ancient races are slaughtered by human masters and a bloodbath ensues, it will not change the outcome that the Beidou human race will encounter great troubles in the future.

It seems like he has fought his way out of a bright and clear world, but in fact it is an extremely cowardly performance.

Those who formulated this plan to intimidate the ancient creatures will be busy in the future, and may even turn into firefighters to put out fires everywhere.

In Li Zhi's opinion, those people didn't seem to understand what it meant to win fairly.

However, this has nothing to do with Li Zhi.

Originally, he planned to take action at this grand gathering of all races.

Normally, for an event like this involving many races, the strength of each race would be displayed on the stage.

Not only do the strong ones at the ancestral king level need to fight, but even the mighty and kings of each race have to demonstrate their corresponding strength in front of the cultivators of all races.

Because it concerns the survival scope of each major ethnic group for a long period of time in the future, it involves many aspects and cannot be decided simply by the victory or defeat of the ancestor king.

The ancestor king can only represent the present.

The future of the ethnic group is supported by the powerful and kings of each ethnic group.

There are not enough saint-level strongmen among the human race for the time being, but it doesn’t matter.

As long as the young powerful men and kings demonstrate sufficient strength, no one will underestimate the human race.

The human race does not have enough strong men, and that is an influence caused by the overall environment of heaven and earth.

However, the overall environment of the world has changed today, and all ancient races know this.

The ancient royal families who had produced powerful ancient emperors were not unaware of the secrets sealed by the major aristocratic families or holy places.

Normally speaking, if human beings were not secretive and self-righteous.

If this grand gathering of all races is held according to the normal procedures, it will surely become a topic of conversation among all races in the future.

Unfortunately, that situation did not occur.

If each race has fully demonstrated their strength in the arena, and the ancient race wants to press on, then the human race will use the ultimate weapons, which will be acceptable to everyone.

After all, when forced into a corner, it is inevitable to use extreme weapons.

But now, the ancient races have been suppressed by the List of Gods before they have even seen the strength of the human race at the conference. It would be strange if they didn’t feel aggrieved.

If Zhonghuang Xiang Yufei, Yaoguang Saint Son, Ye Fan and other human beings were allowed to fight with the powerful ones from the ancient tribes, and after they had performed at the level of ancient princes, the tribes could then negotiate, perhaps things would be much better.

Then, he would let those king-level masters among the human race who had successfully cut off the Dao before the changes in heaven and earth go into battle and fight with the kings of the ancient tribes, and he would even be willing to let Li Zhi fight on behalf of the king of the human race.

He was confident that he could kill the kings of the ancient tribes and scare them into submission.

Afterwards, the God King Jiang Taixu will finish the job by killing a group of ancient ancestor kings and letting them see the true strength of the human race's sages.

If the ancient tribes don't give up.

Finally, let Gai Jiuyou or Tianxuan Wei Yi come forward to end this battle.

If the ancient creatures were unwilling to end the battle at that time, then offering up the List of Gods or the Emperor's Decree of the Wu Shi Great Emperor would be a way of fighting that would truly convince the ancient races.

Now, the Conference of All Races has evolved in the worst way, which makes Li Zhizhi shake his head.

Looking at the Tongtian battle stage, the God King Jiang Taixu was fighting bloody battles with the ancestral kings of various races and displayed his unparalleled divine power, but there were still ancient ancestral kings on the stage.

Li Zhi knew that the evil consequences of using the List of Gods to intimidate all the ancient tribes had appeared.

You know, the number of ancestral kings killed by the Divine King Jiang Taixu is enough to equal the number of ancestral kings in several ancient royal families combined.

However, killing so many ancestral kings did not produce much deterrent effect. It has to be said that this is a tragedy.

Seeing that Li Zhi was in a bad mood, the Saintess of Yaochi who was following him asked, "Changshou, don't you think highly of Senior Divine King?"

Li Zhi said truthfully: "This fight between Senior Divine King and me did not reflect the extraordinary significance it should have."

"Why is it meaningless?" A hint of doubt flashed in the eyes of the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi.

“Because of the List of Gods created by the Wu Shi Great Emperor, the human race has no possibility of losing. But even if the God King kills all the Ancestral Kings present, the human race is not a race worthy of respect in the eyes of those ancient races.” Li Zhi said bluntly.

"Shouldn't our human race use the List of Gods?" The Saint Maiden of Yao Chi frowned and asked.

"It should be used, but not before the conference begins." Li Zhi said.

"Is there any difference?" asked the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi.

"Because the Investiture of the Gods and the Fairy Tear Tower in Yaochi are both supreme beings that transcend all rules and order in the human world. Their purpose of existence is not to kill the enemy, but to calm everyone down when both sides are killing each other.

If they were used to kill or intimidate the enemy from the beginning, it would undoubtedly be putting the cart before the horse. Originally, the God King's fight could have played a 100% deterrent role, but because of the Conferred God List, it was unknown whether the deterrent effect could still be played to 30%.

Do you really think that with the List of Gods from the Wu Shi Great Emperor, everything will be fine and those ancient creatures will be completely suppressed?

Don't be too naive. Those ancient ancestor kings are not fools who have never seen the world and don't know what imperial weapons are. Those ancient royal families have ancient imperial weapons in their hands. As long as those ancient creatures are sure that the Wu Shi Great Emperor who entered the spirit is a fake, they will launch crazy revenge on the human race. "

Li Zhi explained the origin of the matter to the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi.

This ultimate weapon, which should have been a stabilizing force, should have been an unrivaled weapon that could calm the world at a critical moment, has now been used so easily.

Li Zhi even wanted to scold them in person: "You are so stupid."

Fortunately, he did not lose his mind, until he realized that his influence was insignificant and it was impossible to change the ideas and practices of those "big guys".

It seemed that the God King Jiang Taixu on the Tongtian Battle Stage was about to kill the tenth Ancestral King.

Li Zhi turned and left.

"Changshou, where are you going?" The Saint Maiden of Yao Chi immediately followed.

"Let's take a trip into the world of mortals." Li Zhi said.

"Aren't you going to wait until the conference is over before leaving?" The Saint Maiden of Yao Chi felt that Li Zhi had changed. After this meeting, he seemed to no longer be the same Li Zhi as before, and his attitude towards her had also changed greatly.

This made the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi feel a little lost.

"There's no need. The ending is already determined. It doesn't make any difference whether I stay or not." Li Zhi shook his head.

"Can you tell me why?" The Saint Maiden of Yao Chi frowned slightly, and seemed to be a little uneasy. At this moment, she actually felt a hint of disappointment from Li Zhi.

This emotion was different from that of all the human cultivators present.

"You will be the one who takes charge of Yao Chi in the future, so you should think about it yourself." Li Zhi said to the Saint of Yao Chi with a smile.

Then he left the holy land of Yao Chi without looking back.
