Chapter 1608: One thousand fifty-four Primordial Heavenly Sovereign’s reaction_2
"Jiang Chen, it is not that I insist on being your enemy, it is your choice that forces me to do so. From now on, do not blame your uncle for being heartless."
The anger of Primordial Heavenly Sovereign did not last for long, as he soon calmed down, yet the look he cast towards the Three Realms turned even colder.
The actions of Jiang Chen prompted him to make a decision, which was to abandon the plan of reshaping the Chaos World and instead, to support the plan to create the Immortal World.
Leaving aside his relationship with Jiang Chen, just the fact that Jiang Chen now harbors the thought of splitting Kunlun Mountains means that Primordial Heavenly Sovereign could no longer cooperate with Jiang Chen.
Primordial Heavenly Sovereign supports the reshaping of the Chaos World under the premise that it benefits him. But now, Jiang Chen’s plan undeniably harms his interests. Therefore, it is natural for him to change his mind.
Shifting his support to the creation of the Immortal World does not cause him any loss; in fact, it might even bring him greater benefits.
However, Saints are cunning and shrewd, knowing well the wisdom of not putting all eggs in one basket; they often hedge their bets.
Therefore, in his heart, Primordial Heavenly Sovereign harbored another bold idea, which was to take advantage of the situation. One always has to prepare for the worst; if under his support, the plan to create the Immortal World still fails.
If the Great Divine Transcendents in Dongsheng Divine Continent fail to stop Jiang Chen and are defeated by him, resulting in the failure to create the Immortal World and the Three Realms follow Jiang Chen towards the path of reshaping the Chaos World.
Considering this possibility, Primordial Heavenly Sovereign felt that he should prepare early, to seize the opportunity at the critical moment and steal the success of Jiang Chen’s Jiang City.
If it’s about reshaping the Chaos World, why must the person reshaping be Jiang Chen, and not him, Primordial Heavenly Sovereign?
He is the Primordial Heavenly King, Pangu Yu Qing Daoist, the legitimate master of Heaven and Earth. It is undoubtedly most appropriate for him to reshape the Chaos World.
"The matter of reshaping the Chaos World is not urgent; let’s wait and see. I hope the Dao friends of Dongsheng Divine Continent won’t disappoint me too much, unable to even deal with a junior like Jiang Chen."
"If it really doesn’t work, executing the final plan can wait until the end."
"However, before that, there is still one thing to do. Jiang Chen’s plans might be elaborate, but who says splitting Kunlun Mountains is such an easy task?"
"The Qilin Clan can leave, but the Southern Kunlun must remain untouched."
Plucking the ripe fruit is a matter for later. Right now, for Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, the most important thing is to prevent the Qilin Clan from moving Southern Kunlun.
There are a total of one hundred and eight peaks in Kunlun Mountains, and there are twenty-four peaks in Southern Kunlun. It’s not a small number, accounting for a fifth already. If the Qilin Clan were to transport Southern Kunlun to Nine States, then the vitality of Kunlun Mountains would surely be gravely wounded.
Not to mention that Primordial Heavenly Sovereign would try to stop them if he knew, even the other Great Divine Transcendents who are in seclusion in Kunlun Mountains would find ways to prevent it upon hearing.
Now, what Primordial Heavenly Sovereign has to do is to let out this news, to inform those who need to know.
The edict of the Taoist Ancestors is still in effect; Saints must not set foot in the Three Realms. For the Qilin Clan, Primordial Heavenly Sovereign is out of reach, so his threat is not very significant. Even if Primordial Heavenly Sovereign has the intention to stop them, he is powerless to prevent them from moving.
If I am not present, just with those second-generation disciples from Chan Teaching, thinking they could stop the Qilin Clan, wouldn’t that be a joke? Even if the Qilin Clan is in decline, they cannot possibly be stopped by the second-generation disciples of Chan Teaching.
Of course, if Primordial Heavenly Sovereign himself were stationed in Kunlun Mountains, then it would be a different story. Even if the Qilin Clan had three times the courage, they wouldn’t dare move Southern Kunlun.
Primordial Heavenly Sovereign is aware that due to his absence from Kunlun Mountains, the Qilin Clan does not take him seriously. Therefore, he must release the news that the Qilin Clan intends to move Southern Kunlun, prompting those Great Divine Transcendents who are in seclusion there to step forward and prevent this event.
Everyone resides on Kunlun Mountains, and their interests are one and the same. Now that the Qilin Clan seeks to move Southern Kunlun, it is damaging the interests of the entire Kunlun Mountains, everyone’s interests. Under such circumstances, they naturally cannot remain indifferent.
"Now I have to see, having offended so many Great Divine Transcendents at once, Jiang Chen, do you still dare to split Kunlun Mountains?"
As if something occurred to him, a cold smile formed at the corner of Primordial Heavenly Sovereign’s mouth.
...
......
As the Qilin Clan made their move, Jiang Chen, who was far away in the Divine Court, also sensed something.
"Hmm?"
"The Qilin Clan is acting so swiftly? The Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan haven’t even started, yet they’re already packing their bags."
Rising from his meditation mat, Jiang Chen stepped outside the hall, gazing in the direction of the Kunlun Mountains.
Being highly skilled in cultivation, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign could ignore the influence of the Quantitative Calamity. Although Jiang Chen did not possess such profound cultivation as the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign to escape the influence of the calamity, he had the Tao Mirror.
So what if recommended divine abilities can’t be used? It had absolutely no impact on Jiang Chen.
The capacity of the Tao Mirror even exceeded that of Jade Emperor’s Haotian realm; it could not only perceive everything in Between Heaven and Earth but also go a step further, possessing the power to see into the past, present, and future.
Thus, as soon as there was any stir from the Qilin Clan, it was detected by the Tao Mirror.
During the Investiture of the Gods, Jiejiao Sect’s carelessness had not gone unnoticed, how could Jiang Chen fail to learn from this? War was certainly inseparable from intelligence. After confirming the inefficacy of predictive divine powers, Jiang Chen immediately called upon the Tao Mirror to envelop the entire Three Realms, overseeing all matters of Heaven and Earth.
Jiang Chen certainly did not want the same thing that happened to Leader Tongtian to repeat itself with him; hence, he placed great importance on intelligence.
"The Qilin Clan has already started making moves; then it stands to reason that my second teacher, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, should also be aware of this."
With this thought, a smile formed at the corner of Jiang Chen’s mouth.
Such a significant move by the Qilin Clan could definitely not go unnoticed by his neighbor, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign. Once the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign saw the actions of the Qilin Clan, with a little thought, he would be able to figure out Jiang Chen’s strategy.
One should never underestimate the wisdom of the saints. Often, just by seeing the slightest clue, they can deduce the whole chain of events leading up to and following a situation.
For instance, the matter of Jiang Chen preparing to remake the Chaos World hadn’t even been put into action; he had only just thought about it, and yet it had already been guessed by those Great Divine Transcendents.
As for why Jiang Chen was so confident that the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign could still employ predictive divine powers even under the influence of the Quantitative Calamity, the reason was really quite simple.
All of this was because of Leader Tongtian, after all, during the Investiture of the Gods, the setback he suffered was tremendous; the vast Jiejiao Sect vanished in no time, and he himself was also sealed, a total loss of face.
And the reason behind all this was, in fact, due to inadequate intelligence. It was not until a large part of Jiejiao Sect got caught in the whirlpool of the Investiture of the Gods that Leader Tongtian realized something was amiss.
By that time, even if he wanted to rectify the situation, he was out of options and had no choice but to stubbornly follow the path to its dark end.
However, looking at it from another angle, if Leader Tongtian had detected the problem at the very beginning and had made timely remediation, would the course of the Investiture of the Gods have reached a different conclusion?
Once the other Saints began to think this way and learn from Leader Tongtian’s lesson, they were bound to make changes. Especially regarding intelligence, the ineffectiveness of predictive divine powers during the Quantitative Calamity is truly debilitating; the Saints would certainly seek a solution to this.
Jiang Chen never doubted the capabilities of the Saints. Isn’t that what cultivation is all about? Transforming the impossible into possible, many things seem unachievable, not because they are truly out of reach, but because no one has thought in that direction.
But once someone does, solutions can easily be found.
Hence, with the lesson from Leader Tongtian, the inability to employ predictive divine powers during the Quantitative Calamity had, after the Investiture of the Gods, thoroughly become a thing of the past, unlikely to trouble the Saints any longer.
The Saints are also constantly progressing; that is what makes them most formidable.
"Heh, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign sure moves quickly. He has already leaked the news, preparing to utilize the power of those mysterious Great Divine Transcendents reclused in the Kunlun Mountains, to sabotage my plans."
Just when Jiang Chen’s gaze fell upon the Kunlun Mountains, in an inexplicable moment, he felt a mystical fluctuation.
