Chapter 1784: One Thousand One Hundred Forty-One Military Formation Simulations_2
The original guardian formation of the Heaven Court is certainly no longer usable. The essence of the formation lies in matching with Heaven and Earth, and now the Prehistoric World has been altered so chaotically. Existing formations can basically no longer match with Heaven and Earth, so naturally, they need to be modified, and significantly at that.
This is undoubtedly a monumental task, but it doesn’t matter because those involved are all powerful figures.
Take Fuxi the Heavenly Emperor, for instance. He is now a peerless expert in the eighth realm of Primordial Chaos and holds the Innate Treasure, the Innate Nine Palaces Eight Diagrams Chart.
Now, his understanding of the Great Dao is undoubtedly at a profound level. Even before the breakthrough, he could comprehend the supreme formation like the Cycle Star Array, and now that he has broken through, he can naturally deduce an even stronger formation.
What’s more, the person who collaborates with him in deducing formations is even more formidable than Di Jun of yore, as it is none other than Jiang Chen’s teacher, the Upper Qing Saints.
Pangu, the Upper Qing Saints, needs no further explanation; he is undoubtedly one of the top three figures in the Prehistoric World’s formation path. His collaboration with Fuxi the Heavenly Emperor in deducing formations is unprecedented.
Two grandmasters of formation paths working together, one can only imagine how powerful the formation they deduced is.
Moreover, apart from them, those assisting them are either Saints or Sub-Saints, with the weakest being Great Divine Transcendents. With so many people working together, the formation deduced is not only extremely powerful but also able to reflect the patterns of the future.
Anyway, with nothing else to do, Jiang Chen also joined the venture. Although young, Jiang Chen’s insight in the path of formations does not necessarily lose to Fuxi the Heavenly Emperor and the Upper Qing Saints.
The three of them are grandmasters ranking in the top three in the Prehistoric World’s formation path. Their collaboration left Primordial Heavenly Sovereign and the Saint of Taiqing, who were silently observing, all speechless.
They knew that a brand new supreme formation in the Prehistoric World was going to be born again. Without claiming to be the first, it’s nearly there. And unless something unexpected occurs, this formation is intended to be used against them.
Knowing that everyone gathered together is discussing how to deal with them, yet the Saint of Taiqing and Primordial Heavenly Sovereign couldn’t interrupt them.
This feeling is truly both suffocating and distressing.
And being able to collaborate with Jiang Chen, Fuxi the Heavenly Emperor, and the Upper Qing Saints in deducing formations is a rare opportunity for these Great Divine Transcendents, possibly unattainable in a lifetime. Hence, they all performed exceptionally diligently.
Deducing formations, though extremely draining, has benefits surpassing debates on Tao. During the process, the collision of thoughts easily sparks new insights, leading individuals into a state of enlightenment.
It could be that after this deduction ends, some might retreat for a period and step into the realm of Sub-Saint or even Saint relying on their gains.
...
......
While Jiang Chen was fervently engaging in deducing formations, elsewhere, Taiyi and the others were heatedly debating.
Among the three hundred sixty Great Divine Transcendents, there are only thirty-six Heavenly Venerables and two Domain Lords; the quota is way too small, not even enough to distribute, and naturally, no one wants to back down, thus leading to arguments.
Eventually, as the arguing became more intense with a tendency to escalate to conflict, Taiyi had no choice but to say, "Please everyone, calm down and listen to me."
Taiyi’s authority still held sway. As soon as his voice dropped, everyone suppressed their internal anger, turned to one side, and refrained from speaking.
"There are only thirty-six Heavenly Venerables and two Domain Lords; undoubtedly, it’s insufficient to distribute. This point is indisputable."
"I am aware, everyone has put in so much effort solely for achieving the Tao. Now that the Immortal World has been established, achieving the Tao is within reach; naturally, there is no reason to relinquish the Primordial Chaos dao fruit."
"But the reality is such that the Primordial Chaos dao fruit is insufficient for distribution; no matter how much you argue, the outcome won’t change."
"I’ve seen you argue for a long while without any result. In that case, to prevent harming your rapport, I’ll give you a suggestion."
"At this point, our conflict with the Star Lord is irreconcilable; a future battle is unavoidable."
"So, my proposal is, anyone who wishes to become a Heavenly Venerable must be at the forefront in any future conflict with the Star Lord."
"Gaining benefits must come with corresponding obligations; you can’t just enjoy without contribution. Hence, whoever desires to become Heavenly Venerable must be the first to face danger."
Taiyi expressed his thoughts without discussing merits or rewards, looking only at the attitude of the crowd.
Whoever is willing to contend with Jiang Chen, that person shall ascend. If someone is unwilling to oppose Jiang Chen, then what reason do they have to become Heavenly Venerable?
Taiyi was compelled to propose this; he is elected as the master of the Immortal World, hence in any future clash with Jiang Chen, he must lead the charge.
Under these circumstances, he naturally hopes his teammates will not hold him back. He desires teammates who can advance and retreat alongside him. Only those teammates have the qualification to become Heavenly Venerable.
"Taiyi Dao Brother speaks sensibly!"
Taiyi finished speaking, and these Great Divine Transcendents glanced at each other, nodding in agreement. Regardless of what they truly thought, at this moment, they had to express support.
After all, one reason for their unity is to corporately resist Jiang Chen. If they relinquish this principle, what qualification do they have to vie for the Heavenly Venerable position?
"Based on this principle, discuss further!" Taiyi said with a slightly fatigued sigh.
Indeed, with this condition, everyone’s attitude wasn’t as firm as before. Subsequently, around two hundred Great Divine Transcendents withdrew from vying for the Heavenly Venerable position, leaving only about a hundred people still contending.
At this stage, the situation is already very clear. Though the Immortal World appears to hold an advantage, this advantage was deliberately orchestrated by Jiang Chen.
Meaning that as long as Jiang Chen wishes, he can at any moment shift the situation again, placing the Immortal World at a disadvantage.
They have expended so much—almost everything—but still haven’t truly surpassed Jiang Chen. This result inevitably brings some discouragement.
As a result, some Great Divine Transcendents began feeling restless. Is continuing like this truly worthwhile? Might it be better to find a chance to retreat, to avoid ultimately being slain by the Star Lord?
Certainly, this is merely a notion, not indicative of their decision to act upon it. But under the influence of such thoughts, their demeanor towards Jiang Chen might not be as resolute.
I may not withdraw from the Immortal World plans entirely, but I could delay, observing the situation further before deciding. Based on such ideas, naturally, they are reluctant to completely sever ties with Jiang Chen.
Severing ties with Jiang Chen means no turning back, only one path forward, hell or high water. Therefore, without truly making a firm decision, some Great Divine Transcendents abandoned their contention for Heavenly Venerable status.
Although the Primordial Chaos dao fruit is beneficial, it requires time to assimilate. However, if one were to perish during this time, it would all be lost to others.
"Hearts are wavering!"
Taiyi also noticed the change among his ranks, yet he didn’t have any good solutions. The opponent’s power is too formidable, facing setbacks in morale and wavering is normal.
To alter this, the only strategy is to achieve a significant victory to boost morale.
Taiyi contemplated this, hence deciding to gamble everything, crafting the Immortal World to turn the tide. Unfortunately, he miscalculated.
Events initially unfolded precisely as he envisioned: upon the establishment of the Immortal World, their foundation surpassed the Nine States’ Heaven and Earth, thus they successfully shifted the tide, gaining considerable leverage.
Sadly, this didn’t last too long; with a decree from the Jade Emperor, appointing Jiang Chen as the steward of the Prehistoric World, the advantageous situation they worked so hard to create collapsed overnight.
First, a steep rise; subsequently, a dramatic fall, even for Great Divine Transcendents, going through such an ordeal inevitably evokes doubt, birthing an invincible feeling.
Lowered morale and wavering resolve constitute the crisis faced by Taiyi and others. At this moment, Taiyi’s distribution of Primordial Chaos dao fruits essentially aims at stabilizing hearts.
