Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 1245 - 862 Three Great Treasuries_2

Otherwise, if the Mystic Sect’s salvation plan succeeds and they create the Immortal World, it will no longer be the pinnacle of the Prehistoric World, but the pinnacle of the Mystic Sect.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty from all of us!"

No sooner had Jiang Chen finished his cultivation than shouts loud as thunderclaps came from outside Li Mountain. They were the cultivators from the Nanbuzhan Continent, celebrating his breakthrough.

A Quasi-Saint, the pillar of a tribe, is a major figure even to Heaven and Earth, let alone to a single race.

One more Quasi-Saint for the Human Race has a greater impact than if the Human Race had fifty more Taoist Masters. This signifies a greater strength for the Human Race.

Even for a great race like the Human Race, gaining one more Quasi-Saint visibly elevates their power.

Look at the jubilation among the Human Race while the Tribal Alliance is cloaked in gloom; one can see the immense impact of Jiang Chen’s breakthrough. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

"This is intolerable!"

"The alliance has just lost nine comrades, and on their side, Jiang Chen has successfully broken through to the realm of the Quasi-Saint, this is really..."

"The Human Race, they truly bully us too deeply!"

Inside the Tribal Alliance, a group of Quasi-Saints angrily discussed the matter.

In reality, Jiang Chen’s breakthrough alone was not enough to provoke such rage from the Quasi-Saints of the tribes.

But before his breakthrough, Jiang Chen had slain nine Quasi-Saints of the tribes in one fell swoop. By comparison, the Quasi-Saints felt aggrieved, and their anger flared up.

"Moreover, it’s bad enough that the Human Race has slain nine of our comrades, but now they have even mobilized an army to strike at the races to which those comrades belonged, aiming to completely eradicate them. This is simply a blatant disregard for our Tribal Alliance."

When it comes to Jiang Chen, it’s inevitably linked to the matter of the nine tribes.

Initially, the Quasi-Saints of the Tribal Alliance were discussing how to divide up the nine tribes. Protecting or taking over the nine tribes was out of the question; who wouldn’t covet such a big piece of fat and wish to take a bite?

Keep in mind, the creatures of the nine tribes are also valuable resources. Since they aren’t from the same race, there are no scruples to be had. Now that the opportunity has presented itself, why not act?

That’s just how pragmatic the tribes are!

However, the Quasi-Saints of the tribes didn’t expect that before they could come to an agreement, the Human Race had already made the first move, dispatching an army to attack the nine tribes.

At this moment, there was no doubt that the Quasi-Saints of the tribes were angry, but none dared to stand up against the Human Race’s actions.

Because not far away, thirty-six Human Race Quasi-Saints were glaring at them menacingly.

It was easy to stop the Human Race’s army from attacking the nine tribes, but what would come next, how to deal with the attack from the Human Race Quasi-Saints, that was the real trouble.

In the end, the Tribal Alliance backed down. Otherwise, if the tribes were united, what would they have to fear from the Human Race? Protecting the nine tribes would be an easy task.

The Tribal Alliance didn’t dare to go to war with the Human Race, but likewise, the Human Race was not willing to go to war with the Tribal Alliance at this time.

It’s just that the Human Race is more united than the tribes, which is why they can act more forcefully.

"Internal strife within the Human Race is imminent, now is not the best time to go to war with them. We wait; when chaos arises within the Human Race, that will be our opportunity."

"As for the nine tribes..."

"Let them be kept by the Human Race for now, consider it as them holding onto it for us. When chaos breaks out within the Human Race, we will take it back, with interest."

One of the Quasi-Saints of the tribes finally spoke up, offering everyone a way out. It’s not that they were afraid of the Human Race, but the timing was not right. As the saying goes, losing patience may ruin grand plans; what they needed to do now was to wait.

"What the fellow Taoist said is sensible. Let’s allow the Human Race their moment of arrogance. We shall see if they can still laugh when their chaos unfolds."

With what appeared to be a reasonable excuse, the Quasi-Saints of the tribes convinced themselves, recasting their fear of the Human Race as strategic patience.

And without the aid of the alliance of myriad clans, how could the nine clans be a match for the Human Race? Their demise was just a matter of time.

...

...

"Everyone, don’t be too happy yet. Great chaos is approaching. Be careful not to be implicated," Jiang Chen said.

The clanspeople’s thoughts were clear to Jiang Chen, but now was not the time to celebrate. The atmosphere in the Nanbuzhan Continent was growing more and more tense.

As Xianyang City became increasingly distinct, outside the Nine States barrier, many terrifying presences gradually appeared; all of them had their eyes on the First Emperor’s treasury.

None of these masters were weaker than an Innate Dao Sovereign, and there were many at the level of Quasi-Saint too. And these were just the masters that showed themselves; who knew how many more were hidden in the dark?

They had not yet entered the Nanbuzhan Continent, partly out of wariness of the Nine States barrier and partly because the First Emperor’s treasury had not yet appeared.

But it was foreseeable that as soon as the First Emperor’s treasury emerged, they would swarm into the Nanbuzhan Continent without hesitation.

As for why the Nine States barrier couldn’t stop them?

Heh, was the power of the Nine States barrier linked to the nation’s fate? And now the Han Empire was officially entering the final phase of the dynasty, showing signs of imminent collapse.

The fate of the Han Dynasty plummeted to the bottom, and so did the strength of the Nine States barrier, no longer able to stop an Innate Dao Sovereign, let alone a Quasi-Saint.

"Alas, there are still so many masters left in the Prehistoric World?"

To be honest, although Jiang Chen knew that many masters would covet the First Emperor’s treasury, he had not expected that there would be so many of them.

Moreover, among these masters, there were quite a few unaffiliated cultivators. What’s an unaffiliated cultivator? Those who apparently have no background.

Naive people would think that unaffiliated cultivators are those without a lineage, self-taught cultivators. But someone as cynical as Jiang Chen would conclude that so-called unaffiliated cultivators are people who cannot see the light of day.

When renowned powerhouses of the Prehistoric World do things that should not see the light, they usually impersonate masters of the Demonic Way. If it’s not suitable for the Demonic Way to come forward, then they impersonate unaffiliated cultivators.

In short, others do the dirty work, and they attribute all good deeds to themselves.

Just think about the seals in the River of Time and Space to know that if everyone was perfect, how could they have left so many seals behind?

What’s in the First Emperor’s treasury? Besides the twelve metal men, the most precious items are just a few Innate Spiritual Treasures or some powerful legacies.

True, the First Emperor once collected many treasures from the Three Realms, but those are treasures only in the eyes of ordinary Immortal Persons, and while they might attract an Innate Dao Sovereign, they should not be enough to draw Quasi-Saints.

The First Emperor’s treasury may be extraordinary, but the competition it has drawn from so many powerhouses is clearly abnormal. Are just a few Innate Spiritual Treasures really enough to attract several Quasi-Saints to fight over them? Isn’t that absurd?

If the Great Shang treasury or Chiyou’s treasury were discovered, Jiang Chen would believe it if many Quasi-Saint powerhouses were drawn to it because those treasuries truly contain exceptional items.

For example, the Great Shang treasury contains many highly valuable treasures. One of them is the Jian Mu, used by Great Shang in the past to connect the heavens and the mortal world—this treasure is at least a top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

There is also the formation used by Great Shang to slay the Mystic Sect’s Tiandi, which was once the most formidable human array, and now the second most powerful, the Innate Heaven and Earth array’s main formation artifacts, the 1,296 Innate Heaven and Earth Flags.

These treasures were forged by Empress Nuwa and were already extraordinary in power, not to mention that the array had once slain a Tiandi.

With the Tiandi’s blood infused within it, the power of these artifacts undoubtedly surged, and it’s believable to say that the array they form could rank among the top ten in the Chaos World.

If the weapon which slew the Tiandi wasn’t powerful, wouldn’t that make the Tiandi appear inept? The Tiandi is the face of the Chaos World; it’s impossible for him not to be powerful.

The Great Shang treasury is full of treasures. Not to mention Quasi-Saints, even Great Divine Transcendents might be tempted.

As for Chiyou’s treasury, there’s even less need to elaborate, as it contains even more treasures. Just the known items include the corpses of twelve Quasi-Saint Fierce Beasts.

That’s far more formidable than the twelve metal men. Back then, just a whiff of their aura was enough to terrify the twelve Golden Immortals of Chan Teaching, sending them tumbling back to Kunlun Mountain for support, which even Xuanyuan, the Human Emperor, couldn’t do anything about.

But now, the First Emperor’s treasury has emerged, not Chiyou’s or Great Shang’s, yet it has caused such a huge commotion—there surely is a conspiracy at play.
