Chapter 1273 Union
"A transcendent being at the Heavenly Revelation Realm can summon elemental warriors at the Soul Emperor Realm?"
Mo Nanxi's expression clearly showed disbelief, her bloodshot eyes filled with undisguised suspicion.
“I know you find it hard to believe. To be honest, I thought it was impossible before I saw it with my own eyes.” Sima Qing said expressionlessly, “But now, it is true.”
"..." Mo Nanxi fell into a brief silence: "As far as I know, that Lan Mi is not a priest and has no connection with the Temple of Light. Where does her divine power come from?"
“There is more than one way to obtain divine power than to convert to the Temple of the High Priests,” Sima Qing said. “Don’t forget, Ye Ge, as a demonized human, can also wield divine and holy power. The source of his power remains a mystery to this day.”
Mo Nanxi raised an eyebrow: "You mean she stole divine power?"
“Lan Mi happens to be the mentor of Ye Ge, Gao Shenxue, and Xia Xiyao.” Sima Qing continued, “A couple of days ago, Ye Ge also broke through to the Soul Emperor realm. Ten years ago, even Saint Realm transcendents were extremely rare among humans, but now Soul Emperor realm experts are frequently appearing. Do you think this is a coincidence?”
"So you mean all of this was orchestrated by Lan Mi?" Mo Nanxi asked.
“Perhaps it’s more that Ye Ge, Gao Shenxue, and Xia Xiyao are inherently gifted, but their rapid breakthroughs are definitely not without the help of this woman,” Sima Qing asserted, his tone certain. “I even suspect that the Heavenly Dao power that appeared before was related to her.”
"..."
Mo Nanxi fell silent, falling into an even deeper silence.
Lan Mi, the principal of the War Academy...
Sima Qing's expression did not seem feigned.
But how could a non-clergy member, merely a transcendent being at the Awakening Realm, bypass the natural barriers of divine authority and steal divine power? Not to mention divine power based on supreme laws like time and space?
"Heh, you speak with such certainty." Mo Nanxi suddenly turned around, staring intently at him with a deep gaze. "So, what is your purpose in coming here alone today? Is it merely to clear up a misunderstanding with me?"
Sima Qing stood in the shadow of the distorted statue, the pale beam of light from the dome illuminating only half of his face, making him appear obscure.
He spoke slowly and deliberately, his voice echoing in the empty temple: "The reason Lan Mi used illusion magic to alter the memories of your subordinates was to sow discord between us, making us hostile to each other, so that her student Ye Ge could reap the benefits."
"Now, due to the fall of the Five Elements Gods, the Summit of All Races has ended ahead of schedule. The Human Empress has sent invitations to all races on behalf of Ye Ge to hold a conference to discuss how to attack our forces."
Mo Nanxi sneered: "They're attacking you, aren't they? You tried to use Qiongqi's Moon Eye to control the powerful figures of all races, so it's only natural that they attack you."
"Of course, but since your Extreme Yin Sect has also appeared at this crucial juncture, they will take advantage of this alliance to unite and resist your Extreme Yin Sect."
Sima Qing's expression was terrifyingly calm: "The initiator of this meeting is Ye Ge, and you should know Ye Ge's attitude towards you. As for the other races, I believe Ye Ge will also use this meeting to try to persuade the leaders of the other races. Don't forget, this Ye Ge guy is quite clever and cunning. With his brain, it's not impossible for him to incite the races to temporarily form an alliance."
Mo Nanxi's eyes sharpened: "Do you believe that none of the myriad races and nations will submit to my Lord, Ji Yin, and wish to be enemies with the Lord of Ji Yin?"
Sima Qing said, "Let's not talk about the dark races, they have never been subject to the control of the gods... As for the many races of the light faction, many of them are still devout followers of the Light Emperor... And there are some ancient and powerful races, each of them is ambitious, how could they easily submit to the temple of a rebellious god?"
"Now that the Five Elemental Gods have fallen, the divine realm and the lower realm have lost contact. The God of Extreme Yin may now have an advantage over the Light Gods in the lower realm. But do you, a mere level twelve divine mage, really have the ability to subdue so many powerful nations of the myriad races?"
"..."
Mo Nanxi fell silent again; Sima Qing's words had clearly stirred up a storm in her heart.
She recalled the mysterious demon army belonging to Nightsong that she had encountered beneath the black pyramid... and that unbelievable, high-tech creation, a war machine with combat power approaching demigod level—the Mechanical Destroyer Dragon...
Night Song...
This guy, I wonder how many more tricks he has up his sleeve...
If the Heavenly Dao power that existed in the present world was indeed, as Sima Qing said, derived from Ye Ge's hand...
"...Even so," Mo Nanxi's gaze returned to Sima Qing, scrutinizing him, "you just admitted that your gene company is indeed researching the forbidden power of the Heavenly Dao and secretly collecting the spirits of ancient ferocious beasts. Your ambition is by no means small... If the Lord of Extreme Yin were to descend in the future, what would your attitude be?"
“I have never denied my ambition, Miss Mo Nanxi.” Sima Qing turned around frankly, his entire face exposed to the pillar of light, his expression deep and unfathomable. “But right now, it is not I who have obtained the power of the Heavenly Dao, but Ye Ge. I think that what the Lord of Extreme Yin desires most is precisely this power, isn’t it?”
He never gave a direct answer to the last question.
Mo Nanxi gave him a deep look: "So your suggestion is..."
"They can form an alliance, and so can we." Sima Qing's voice carried an undeniable power. "You are a level 12 apostle, while I command three level 12 demon gods—Taowu, Qiongqi, and Taotie—as well as numerous level 11 ancient demon gods such as Zheng, Fei, Gu Diao, Longzhi, Bifang, and Yayu. My gene company also possesses vast wealth, enough to sustain a protracted war. If we form an alliance, even if all the myriad races and nations unite, they cannot withstand our overwhelming power."
"What if Ye Ge uses the Heavenly Star again..." Mo Nanxi hesitated slightly.
"Heh." Sima Qing let out a low, cold laugh. "Since ancient times, apart from the creator gods and the primordial ancestral beasts, anyone who has coveted or manipulated the power of the Heavenly Dao has had to pay an unimaginable price. You should know what became of those who have used the power of the Heavenly Dao. If Ye Ge could use the power of the Heavenly Dao without any scruples, why would he bother to go through all the trouble of winning over the Alliance of Myriad Races? Wouldn't it be much faster for him to directly ascend to the throne of gods, proclaim himself a god, and rule the world?"
"..." Mo Nanxi remained silent, but had to admit that Sima Qing's analysis was indeed reasonable.
"Moreover," Sima Qing sneered, "I have a way to dismantle their alliance of all races."
"Oh?" A glint of light flashed in Mo Nanxi's blood-red eyes. "What method?"
