If I let you lie low and remain the Dragon King, would you have unified the primordial world?.

Chapter 93 Intercepting the Ten Great Demon Generals? The Water Mansion's Strength Greatly Increases!

In the mansion by the Yokogawa River, distinguished guests are welcomed at the door.

"Fellow Daoists Ao Feng and Ao Bai, Bai Ze has come to request an audience!"

A single call echoed throughout the Henghe Water Palace.

Ao Bai, who was in seclusion, was taken aback. Bai Ze!

Could it be Bai Ze, one of the ten future demon generals of the demon race, known as the strategist of the Heavenly Court?

Ao Bai stood up to greet him, and at that moment Ao Feng also came out of the main hall.

Ao Feng had long heard of the Bai Ze clan. They were a sizable clan on the shores of the East Sea, with many powerful members, but they were content with their lot and never expanded outwards, only guarding their own territory.

"Fellow Daoist Bai Ze, please invite him in quickly!"

Ao Feng stepped forward to greet him with a joyful expression. The arrival of this clan leader was an unexpected delight for Ao Feng.

The other party is the patriarch of a large clan on the coast of the East Sea. He has no dealings with the Dragon Clan on ordinary days, so there must be something he wants to discuss.

Ao Bai followed the old Dragon King to greet them, and he had some guesses about what was going on.

Upon seeing Ao Feng and Ao Bai, Bai Ze bowed deeply and said:

"Bai Ze greets the Dragon King and Your Highness."

Ao Feng hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Bai Ze's right hand, saying:

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need for such formalities. We both live on the shores of the East Sea, but we rarely visit each other. Please come to my Water Palace for a gathering!"

Ao Feng appeared very enthusiastic, while Ao Bai was carefully observing the Bai Ze clan chief.

This future one of the top ten demon generals is currently still at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, but he has already reached the Great Perfection of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

He was dressed in white, looking fresh and elegant. His hair was tied up in a bun with a wooden hairpin on his head. He exuded an air of composure, confidence, wisdom, and wit.

Even when facing Ao Feng, whose strength far surpasses his own, Bai Ze's composure remains undiminished.

"My visit today is truly out of necessity!"

Bai Ze shook his head and said that they entered the water mansion and took their seats. Coral maids had already served them fine wine and delicacies, and Ao Feng and Ao Bai personally accompanied them.

"Fellow Daoist Bai Ze rules over a region, living a life of peace and tranquility, yet even he has worries?"

Ao Bai asked with a smile.

Bai Ze sighed:

"Your Highness, you may not know this, but it is precisely because I am the clan leader that I am so worried. The lives of hundreds of millions of people in the clan are in my hands. If I make the wrong decision, it will bring great losses to the clan. That is why I cannot sleep at night and am so worried!"

Bai Ze's words made Ao Bai nod repeatedly, but he did not respond.

Bai Ze continued:

"The Witch Clan is now expanding rapidly, conquering all directions. Many tribes have been killed or even wiped out by them, losing not only their ancestral lands but also their bloodlines. Although my Bai Ze clan is peaceful and unassuming, we are powerless to resist the Witch Clan. If they come, our clan will be in grave danger!"

Bai Ze was clearly afraid of the Wu Clan, whose footsteps had now once again entered the East Sea coast, but they had avoided the Henghe River and other waterways.

As a result, Ao Feng and Ao Bai were unaffected, but other clans suffered.

For example, the Bai Ze clan was one of those affected.

The Wu tribe doesn't care who you are when it expands outwards. Although the Bai Ze tribe hasn't been attacked yet, they will inevitably encounter the Wu tribe sooner or later.

If this problem cannot be solved in time, the Bai Ze clan will suffer a severe blow, or even, as the Bai Ze clan chief said, be wiped out!

The Bai Ze clan chief would never agree to let the Bai Ze clan voluntarily submit to the Wu clan, for with his wisdom, he could easily foresee the future development path of the Wu clan.

Following the Witch Clan was not the right choice.

The Wu Clan is strong enough that it has no need for helpers. Winning over all races is just a temporary measure. If they fail to win the battle for supremacy, the races that have submitted to them will be purged.

Even if they were to unify the prehistoric world, the tribes that submitted to the Wu tribe would probably not gain much benefit. As vassals and henchmen of the Wu tribe, they would inevitably be hidden away or even secretly eliminated.

It was for this reason that, after much deliberation, Chief Bai Ze chose to come to Henghe Water Palace instead of the demons on Sun Star.

It is worth mentioning that the last time Di Jun personally came to the shore of the East Sea to invite friends, he did not meet the Bai Ze clan chief.

The clan chief had foreseen that Di Jun would come, so he went into seclusion beforehand, giving Di Jun no chance to meet him.

Bai Ze clearly wasn't very interested in joining the demon race.

The demon race is too weak, and Di Jun and Tai Yi are equally ambitious.

Bai Ze dislikes fighting and combat, and they will not easily "take sides" unless absolutely necessary.

At this point, the Yokogawa Water Mansion became their best option.

Firstly, Ao Feng and Ao Bai have enough strength to protect themselves, and Ao Bai has unlimited potential. As long as he survives, he will inevitably rise step by step in the future.

Secondly, they have the backing of the Dragon Clan, whose strength far surpasses that of Emperor Jun and Taiyi. Moreover, the Dragon Clan has declared that it will not participate in the struggle for dominance over the prehistoric world, which is what Bai Ze values ​​most.

He disliked fighting and killing, which perfectly aligned with the current philosophy of the dragon race.

The Dragon Clan is powerful, even the Twelve Ancestral Witches are wary of them. The Dragon Clan does not participate in the struggle for supremacy in the prehistoric world, which is closest to Bai Ze's ideals.

These two conditions combined led to his personal visit.

After analyzing the pros and cons, Ao Bai understood everything.

If it weren't for the fact that the father and son were strong enough, Bai Ze's best choice would probably still be the demon race.

However, the emergence of Ao Bai, this "variable," is now having an increasingly significant impact on the development of the prehistoric world.

First, his father's strength increased, then the Henghe Water Palace grew, and now the Bai Ze Clan Chief has arrived. All of this seems to be a natural progression, but in reality, Ao Bai's influence is indispensable.

As a variable, he will continue to subtly influence some minor developments before he is erased by the Primordial Heavenly Dao, until he completely affects the course of the Primordial World!

"Fellow Daoist Bai Ze is right. The Wu Clan is tyrannical, cruel, and inhumane. They have already seized the best resources in the prehistoric world, yet they are still not satisfied and are insatiable. If the Wu Clan continues to expand, I fear that the myriad races of the prehistoric world will have no place to stand!"

Ao Bai sighed, "It's a pity we can't go to war with the Wu Clan. They have the Mandate of Heaven and the protection of Pangu's legacy, making them far superior to the current Dragon Clan."

Seeing that Ao Bai understood so well, Bai Ze immediately stood up and bowed again:

"Dragon King, Your Highness, I have come here to request that you two take me in, so that my Bai Ze clan may join the Henghe lineage and be protected by the Henghe Water Palace, thus escaping the conquest of the Wu Clan!"

Bai Ze's decision to join the Yokogawa lineage directly, rather than forming an alliance, delighted Ao Bai.

This clan leader certainly has some guts.

Alliances, to put it bluntly, are entanglements of interests and mutual assistance.

However, once they join Henghe Water Mansion, they will become part of Henghe Water Mansion. When the Wu Clan attacks the Bai Ze Clan, it is equivalent to attacking Henghe Water Mansion. At that time, Ao Feng and his son will go all out.

It must be said that Bai Ze's considerations were quite insightful.

Ao Bai was very happy about this.

Over the years, the number of beings in the Yokogawa lineage has not even reached 50 million, which is a dismal growth rate.

Other creatures reproduce at a much faster rate than those in the Henghe Water Mansion, which shows how badly their lineage has been suppressed.

"Fellow Daoist Bai Ze, we naturally welcome you to join us. However, our Henghe lineage numbers less than fifty million, while your clan far surpasses ours. Wouldn't it be unfair for you to join our Henghe lineage?"

Ao Bai laughed and said, "It's really illogical that others, who are numerous, would turn around and join those who are few in number."

Bai Ze shook his head and laughed:

"Your Highness, there's no need for such modesty. Before coming here, I also learned about the strength of our Henghe Water Mansion. Not to mention that the members of my clan are not as strong as Henghe, our protective formation is something that the Bai Ze clan dares not compare with. Therefore, please take us in!"

This is just like when Ao Bai gave guidance to Di Jun. Di Jun also doubted Ao Bai's intentions. Now, it's the other way around, Ao Bai is doubting the Bai Ze clan leader.

After some deliberation, the father and son finally agreed.

"The addition of the Bai Ze clan is key to the strength of our Henghe Water Palace. Welcome, welcome!"

Ao Feng was overjoyed. The Bai Ze clan numbered in the hundreds of millions. After joining Henghe Water Palace, it would surely make Henghe Water Palace several times stronger, and their strength would increase dramatically.

"Fellow Daoist Bai Ze, from now on we're family!"

Ao Bai was also beaming with joy. He was genuinely happy. Putting aside the strength of the Bai Ze clan, the wisdom and vision of the Bai Ze clan leader alone could bring a great deal of improvement to the Henghe Water Palace.

It should be noted that Chief Bai Ze is currently at the Great Perfection of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, which is quite impressive.

The Bai Ze clan chief's eyes lit up, and he bowed again:

"Thank you for taking us in, Dragon King. Thank you for taking us in, Your Highness. I will immediately have my clan move here and enter the Water Palace. As for the clan's territory, we will leave some clansmen to guard it."

By showing his loyalty by bringing his tribe to the Henghe Water Palace, Chief Bai Ze was essentially handing everything over to the Henghe lineage, demonstrating his unwavering devotion to Ao Bai and his son.

Ao Feng laughed:

"Fellow Daoist Bai Ze, your clan is not a water spirit, so you can continue to cultivate in your own clan territory. You can send a small group of clansmen to the banks of the Heng River to maintain contact at all times."

Ao Bai nodded and said:

"We appreciate Fellow Daoist Bai Ze's kindness. In addition, I have a Breakthrough Pill here, which can help you increase your chances of success when breaking through. If you can break through with this, you will become a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, and we will be three times stronger in the future!"

Since Bai Ze had expressed his loyalty, Ao Bai was naturally generous and directly presented Bai Ze with a Breakthrough Pill.

The Bai Ze clan chief's eyes gleamed as he looked at the pill.

The Bai Ze patriarch possesses extraordinary talent, but unfortunately, he has been stuck at his current level for many years. He has attempted to break through several times, but all attempts have ended in failure. This has diminished the Bai Ze patriarch's confidence, making him hesitant to attempt breakthroughs again.

The fact that Ao Bai possessed such a miraculous pill surprised and delighted the Bai Ze clan leader.

"Thank you, Your Highness! Thank you, Dragon King!"

Chief Bai Ze wouldn't be foolish enough to refuse; he accepted the pill and held it firmly in his hand.

This is less a pill and more an opportunity.

If the Bai Ze clan leader had obtained this elixir before Hongjun Daozu's first sermon, he could have used the [Breakthrough Pill] to break through directly, and he wouldn't have missed the first sermon.

Now, if he can break through, he can also participate in the second lecture at Zixiao Palace, which is an immense opportunity.

If Bai Ze's strength does not reach the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, he is not qualified to go to Zixiao Palace.

Therefore, the pills that Ao Bai sent were of great significance to the Bai Ze clan chief.

"I can easily refine this kind of pill. As long as your tribe has enough materials, I can refine more for everyone, so that the Bai Ze clan can have more strong individuals who can break through their limits."

Ao Bai's words made the Bai Ze clan chief's eyes shine even brighter.

Their tribe also has considerable reserves, and if they could obtain more [Breakthrough Pills], it would be a tremendous opportunity for the Bai Ze clan.

Chief Bai Ze was clearly surprised that Ao Bai also had the ability to refine pills.

The protective array of Henghe Water Mansion had already shocked Chief Bai Ze, and now Ao Bai's alchemy ability has surprised and delighted him even more.

After spending some time in the Water Palace, Chief Bai Ze returned to his tribe and led a group of his people to the banks of the Heng River.

All matters of the tribe were handed over to the tribal elders, and Chief Bai Ze moved into the Water Palace to express his "loyalty".

He secluded himself in the Water Palace to cultivate, taking the Breakthrough Pill given to him by Ao Bai, and using this opportunity to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

"I never imagined that I would regain my confidence at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, thanks to His Highness Ao Bai's help."

Chief Bai Ze sighed, marveling at the extraordinary effects of the Breakthrough Pill. He now knew the details, which was the key to his courage in breaking through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

Ao Bai and Ao Feng did not disturb him. They prepared a palace for Bai Ze to live in alone, so as to give him a completely quiet and secluded private environment.

The addition of the Bai Ze clan has greatly increased the fortune of Henghe Water Palace.

At the same time, the addition of hundreds of millions of Bai Ze clan members greatly increased the combat power of Henghe Water Palace. Ao Bai even had members of the Bai Ze clan take turns coming to Henghe Water Palace to participate in the practice of the "Hun Tian Si Hai Gui Shui Da Zhen".

"The Bai Ze clan numbers 350 million. Once all of these members have learned the 'Hun Tian Si Hai Gui Shui Great Formation,' the power of our formation will greatly increase. At that time, we will probably be invincible within the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm."

Ao Bai was full of anticipation. The power of the "Hun Tian Si Hai Gui Shui Grand Formation" was limited to the territory of a Da Luo Jin Xian. As long as there were enough members to set up the formation, dealing with a Da Luo Jin Xian would be no problem at all.

However, it becomes insufficient against higher-level cultivators.

This formation is powerful only in the early stages; it becomes less effective later on.

This is still quite different from the "Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation" and the "Zhou Tian Star Formation".

This formation is only strong in the early stages, which is its biggest characteristic.

Ao Feng laughed:

"As long as Chief Bai Ze truly follows us, we will treat him with the same sincerity. If his cultivation breaks through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm this time, we can take him with us to the next lecture at Zixiao Palace!"

Ao Feng clearly takes the lectures at Zixiao Palace very seriously. If Chief Bai Ze goes with them, he will gain more opportunities, but only if he can successfully break through.
