Chapter 492 The Power of the Human World
The danger of the monster tide at Demon Suppression Pass has been temporarily resolved.
All the immortals worked together to use immortal materials and treasures to rebuild the collapsed wall of Demon-Suppressing Pass.
The demons used the power of the Meteorite Dragon Gate and strange creatures to force open the gap in the city wall. Naturally, the immortals and gods had to "restore the balance" and repair it.
However, it is impossible for the immortals and gods to completely destroy the demon tide and help the human race do everything.
Even though Li Yuan wanted to do so, he was stopped by Emperor Anyue.
"I have a feeling that the great era is coming."
"The human race's borders must maintain the proper pressure in order to forge truly powerful people."
When all the immortals left one after another, Emperor Anyue and Li Yuan sat in the small pavilion and had a long talk, just like in the past, with a small table and a cup of warm tea, very casual.
Emperor Anyue is a man of great ambition. He wants to take the Demon-Suppressing Pass as the starting point and, under the pressure of the monster tide, vigorously promote the way of cultivation and create a true prosperous age for the human race!
"True gold is not afraid of fire. If someone can stand out from the chaos, he will surely be an extremely amazing existence."
Li Yuan drank tea and understood Emperor Anyue's thoughts.
If the human race only relies on external assistance, it will eventually encounter disaster.
Only by becoming strong can we truly protect this world from harm.
The two had a long talk. Listening to Li Yuan describing the changes that Anyue had undergone in recent years, Emperor Anyue was also filled with emotion.
As the emperor of a powerful country, he did not need to lead the army in person.
But there is no prince who can live for a hundred years in this world.
He took a magical elixir and extended his life by thirty years.
He placed himself on a distant front line and handed over the huge Anyue to Ji Lin to manage, just to enhance Ji Lin's prestige in the country.
Fortunately, at some point in the future, Ji Lin will ascend the throne and become the second generation emperor of Anyue.
However, although Ji Lin was a man of both literary and military skills, he did not seem to care about this. Even with such a great opportunity, he did not cultivate his own confidants.
"This silly kid can't let go of his brother Ji Xiu's matter, and he always has a knot in his heart..."
Emperor Anyue sighed, knowing his child's temperament.
Now, the emperor's grandchildren have grown up, each of them is both virtuous and talented, and have gradually begun to take over the jurisdiction of various places.
In the coming decades, this generation will shine extremely brightly.
Only the matter of Ji Xiu and Ji Lin made Emperor Anyue feel a little guilty.
These are the two sons he values most.
It’s a pity that what happened back then was a situation that we couldn’t do anything about.
Ji Xiu stepped forward and led the army to fight against the army of Xuguo, but was eventually buried on the battlefield. Even his soul was taken away, and he suffered a lot.
Ji Lin felt extremely guilty about this, and thought that he was the cause of Ji Xiu's death in battle.
If I had been able to hold on a little longer back then... and insisted on leading the army to the battle, then my brother wouldn't have died...
"I will do my best to bring Ji Xiu back."
Li Yuan sighed and could only make such a promise.
However, he couldn't be sure whether Ji Xiu could remain lucid and conscious now that he was in the hands of the monster.
After a long talk with Emperor Anyue and confirming that the strange creature had not caused any trouble to Emperor Anyue recently, Li Yuan felt a little relieved.
Just as I was about to leave, there was a knock on the door.
"Immortal Li, I am the Emperor of Dongji of Dongji Country. May I have the honor of entering the cabinet to have a talk?"
From outside the door came the steady and deep voice of the Emperor of Dongji.
Li Yuan glanced at Emperor Anyue.
Emperor Anyue whispered: "He has the overall situation in mind, acts openly and honestly, and can be trusted."
The majestic Emperor Anyue gave high recognition.
Li Yuan also said: "Please come in."
The three of them sat opposite each other, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.
The Emperor of Dongji was also a true emperor. He was confident and steady. He spoke slowly and broke the silence.
"Emperor Ji Yu and I have been dealing with each other for a long time, and I know his character well."
"But to avoid misunderstanding from Immortal Li, I still need to explain."
"I am not suspicious of Emperor Ji Yu's private meeting with you."
"I apologize for disturbing you, but I also wanted to discuss with you the matter of promoting cultivation in the human world."
The Emperor of Dongji raised the teacup and saluted Li Yuan as an apology.
Li Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at Emperor Anyue, slightly surprised.
From the look on Emperor Dongji's face, it was obvious that he already knew what he meant to An Yue and his attitude towards the human world.
Telling all these things shows that Emperor Dongji is someone that Emperor Anyue truly trusts.
This situation is obviously rare among the two powerful countries that are competing with each other.
After all, what both sides are fighting for is the position of overlord of the world.
Emperor Anyue nodded to Li Yuan and said with a smile:
"The demons are out there, so the human race should unite."
"Otherwise, even the most powerful country will be nothing but a bubble."
Hearing the hidden meaning, Li Yuan was even more surprised.
Not wanting to be a riddler and beat around the bush with these two emperors, Li Yuan spoke directly and clearly.
"So Anyue and Dongji are secretly competing with each other, but you two have reached a cooperation in private?"
The Emperor of Dongji has a slightly thin body, regular facial features, and a majestic appearance, but his temperament is very calm and composed.
At this moment, he chuckled: "Cooperation is mutually beneficial, and fair competition is the best. These words were said to me by Emperor Ji Yu."
"The Anyue Kingdom and the Dongji Kingdom have already established a friendship at the Demon Suppression Pass. They will not actually fight against each other, but will only compete in the way they deal with the outside world."
The pressures and barriers faced by the two powerful countries in reaching such a cooperation in private are obviously extremely terrifying.
But the emperors of both sides had great ambitions.
There is also a big picture perspective that considers the general trend of the human race.
Internal conflicts and struggles will only lead to the decline of the human race; only by taking demons as enemies and maintaining healthy competition can the development of human power be promoted.
Especially the current situation of the human race, which has been oppressed by immortals and gods for a long time, and is also being invaded by demons.
This is the time when unity is needed.
After being surprised, Li Yuan admired the character of these two people.
"I was originally worried that Anyue and Dongji would have serious internal conflicts... It seems that I was worrying too much."
He laughed heartily and clinked glasses with Emperor Anyue as usual, before realizing that he was drinking tea, not wine.
Suddenly, all three of them burst into laughter.
The Emperor of Dongji felt somewhat restrained when facing the immortal god Li Yuan.
But he was even more envious: "I've heard from Emperor Ji Yu that he has a close relationship with you. Now that I see you, I'm really envious."
Anyue’s rise is a miracle in itself.
Those spiritual items made the Emperor Dongji, who had always believed that "spiritual practice is supreme", change his inherent ideas.
Those spiritual creations have huge potential and will definitely change the future.
Now, seeing that Emperor Anyue and Li Yuan have a close relationship, just like old friends, he feels a lot of emotion.
Thinking back to the mountain and river gods of his Dongji country, each of them was aloof from the world. Not to mention sitting at the same table with them, even meeting them was as difficult as ascending to heaven.
The difference between immortals and mortals has been like this since ancient times. The Emperor of Dongji has never given it much thought.
Just seeing the scene in front of me, I still feel somewhat touched.
The two sides talked for a long time in the cabinet of Zhenmo Pass, and came up with a rough plan and decision on how to promote the cultivation of the human race in the future.
The Dongji Kingdom has been a prosperous spiritual practice since ancient times, and the Dongji Emperor is willing to take on this important task and spread the country's spiritual practice methods throughout the world.
Emperor Anyue was not stingy either. He was determined to promote some of Anyue's unique spiritual technologies throughout the world to benefit the people and improve the living environment on earth.
The world is in a period of rapid development.
The winds and clouds are changing, and the three realms are in turmoil.
Those that are brilliant will eventually fall; those that are buried in the dust will inevitably wake up.
The world is in chaos and many parties are rising up.
If you want to keep your place in the Three Realms, you have to...
Strive to cross, strive to cross!
