Living in the Doomsday and Becoming an Immortal Alone-Chapter 875 - 396: Breakdown in Negotiations

Wang Jixuan said calmly, "A humiliation treaty?"

"No, no, no, this is not a humiliation treaty, but... a survival treaty."

Hei Yao chuckled lightly:

"If I hadn’t come, you surely would have found a way to deal with the Blade Beast trouble.

"The planetary barrier is now open, Cloud City has welcomed you, and your cultivation speed will undoubtedly exceed all our expectations.

"Therefore, I can only take you away from here."

"Become your captive?"

"No," Hei Yao said seriously, "Become my friend, our friend. Our family will welcome you, and will not deliberately demand anything from you. If you are willing to share something with us, we will be delighted, but it’s okay if you don’t."

"Oh?" Wang Jixuan stared at Hei Yao, "You aren’t interested in my cultivation method?"

"I’m more interested in the artistic achievements of this Cultivation Civilization, and whether you have brought over any art forms from high-level civilizations."

Hei Yao spoke with full expectation.

Wang Jixuan said coldly, "A murderous mad demon discussing art here."

"I must admit, I am a murderous mad demon, one who commits all sorts of evil, as I have plundered the survival rights of many intelligent beings."

Hei Yao’s eyes were shrouded in a dim light, then continued:

"But this is the inevitable pain through which one must go.

"I will not alter history; I will allow those who compile this history book to record Hei Yao’s actions truthfully, and I won’t care about others’ criticism.

"I remember, last time I came here, it was still in the so-called Golden Age. I was in a cinema, watching a movie where the villain was called Thanos, who proposed a great idea - by eliminating half the life forms in the universe, conflicts could be resolved, and peace could be restored.

"At that time, I laughed aloud while watching.

"This screenwriter is just too...

"A pond, its area of duckweed doubling every day, by the twenty-ninth day occupies fifty percent of the pond’s area, and it can fill the entire pond on the thirtieth day.

"Eliminate half the life forms, yet the remaining half will quickly repopulate.

"But this did give me an epiphany... Do not try to make others understand you; no one is obligated to understand you.

"Therefore, I am a murderous mad demon, and after the ideal is achieved, I will use any method I can think of to apologize to those who have passed away.

"However, this has nothing to do with my love for art, does it?"

Wang Jixuan remained silent, constantly pondering.

Hei Yao’s three conditions: one for him, two for Earth Civilization.

This actually indirectly shows that the opponent has already realized how mad Fu Jian’s apocalypse plan is, and what challenges they will face in the future.

Agreeing is certainly not possible;

However, some delaying tactics could be used to allow time to figure out how to handle this black fog.

Hei Yao suddenly laughed and said: "You must be thinking about how to delay our release of this black fog... Actually, you don’t need to worry so much; once these three conditions are met, we will immediately withdraw the black fog. However, due to your immense potential, we must ask you to swear upon the matter most important to you, such as never being able to ascend to a higher plane."

"Would you really believe a vow?"

"I don’t believe in vows, but I trust you," Hei Yao said earnestly, "Even if you want to deceive me, I’m willing to believe."

Wang Jixuan really had a headache.

This guy is really hard to handle.

Hei Yao did not appear overly aggressive, continuing to roast over the fire, as if he was really cold.

Ye Zi softly spoke: "Big brother, our leader always keeps his promises, which is a major reason we are willing to follow him. Moreover, we can swear upon the Core Circuit."

Wang Jixuan compromised: "I’ll go with you, but the development rights of civilization cannot be interfered with."

"That won’t do," Hei Yao immediately shook his head, "I don’t want to point out your intentions, as it might make you feel embarrassed, but in reality... you are actually eager to know what happened when Ye Zi freed you from that cage in Cloud City. With this information, I can maintain a friendly relationship with you."

Hei Yao changed the topic:

"After coming here, I discovered the terrifying consequences represented by the Mechanical Civilization route, which may develop into a disaster no less terrible than the Blade Beasts.

"I understand the human desire here to counter the Blade Beasts, but... I can control the Blade Beast disaster, can humanity control the mechanical disaster?

"I can terminate the Blade Beast Civilization at any time, but if the Mechanical Civilization gets out of control, who can stop it? Disorder, unrestricted, asexual replication would lead to the complete destruction of civilizations based on sexual reproduction.

"Currently, the Blade Beasts have not completely destroyed any civilization; I have left enough seeds and survival pressure. It may take only two thousand years for this star domain to restore prosperity.

"And because of the pressure from the Blade Beast Civilization disaster, the intensity of war will lessen, the frequency of conflicts will reduce, and more intelligent beings can live a happy life.

"This is the ideal nation I want to create, a broad, inclusive, ideal nation.

"Oops, I said too much again; I just love babbling."

Wang Jixuan said, "So you mean my conditions are incidental; strangling humanity’s mechanical civilization development is the priority?"

"Yes."

"Then the supervision can be withdrawn."

"Supervision is necessary," Hei Yao said, "The technology development route here is already very dangerous."
