Chapter 72 Qiongqi's Scheme, the Gods Stir Again! (First Update, Please Subscribe and Vote)

"The size is just right!"

Tai Yi was startled.

However, Zhu Yan suddenly shrank in size, thus escaping.

Now, thousands of miles away, his body has recovered, and he looks at the spiritual root with surprise and uncertainty.

Roots surged like tendrils, while more roots, manipulated by Taiyi, emerged from the ground, appearing behind and beside Zhu Yan.

In an instant, the entire vast basin seemed to transform into a dark golden ocean, with undulating waves.

Zhu Yan looked on, scratching his head in frustration, but finally leaped away and disappeared.

Within his spiritual root, Taiyi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. His root system immediately contracted and hid underground.

However, control over the spiritual root is also rapidly fading.

Even so, it is still much bigger than before.

"Indeed, it was a blessing in disguise..."

Taiyi couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

However, not long after, the three-headed dragon crocodiles returned, covered in wounds.

Seeing that its lair was littered with corpses, it roared in fury, opened its mouth wide, and began to feast on the carcasses of the ferocious beasts.

Taiyi watched, thinking to himself, "How can I allow someone else to snore beside my bed!"

The three-headed dragon crocodile raised one of its heads, its golden eyes looking at the spiritual root.

"Such keen perception!"

Tai Yi was startled and immediately suppressed his murderous intent.

The three-headed dragon crocodile continued to devour the corpses of three ferocious beasts, leaving not a single bone behind. Only then did it prostrate itself, as a surge of innate malevolent energy enveloped it, allowing it to rest and recuperate.

Meanwhile, underground, roots are burrowing towards the surface.

Once the three-headed crocodile was fast asleep, its root system suddenly sprang up and wrapped around it.

"Aww!"

The three-headed dragon crocodile was awakened and roared, causing the space to tremble. One root after another exploded, but more roots layered and covered down, even binding the dragon's head and preventing it from opening its mouth.

The three-headed crocodile was both shocked and terrified. It tried to flip its body and perform a death roll, but it was pressed to the ground by layers of roots and could not move at all.

"Awooo..."

Suddenly, the three-headed dragon crocodile let out a mournful howl.

However, the scales of the three-headed crocodile were so hard that they could not be broken. Taiyi found a breakthrough and entered through the back door of the three-headed crocodile, directly attacking its core and causing it to be severely damaged from within.

The three-headed crocodile began to struggle violently, but to no avail.

Its internal structure is far less tough than its external scales; its roots penetrate as if they were in an empty space, frantically drilling holes inside it.

The roars of the three-headed crocodile grew weaker and weaker, and its struggles diminished.

At the edge of the basin, the unwilling Zhu Yan secretly watched as its old rival was dragged step by step into the land of death by that spiritual root. Hearing the mournful howl, it couldn't help but shudder, and then retreated unwillingly.

And deep within the wild mountains.

Beneath a sea formed from innate malevolent energy, a colossal figure with a tiger's body and wings was bound by chains of the Great Dao.

With its tiger eyes open, Qiongqi's gaze pierced through countless dimensions, landing on the spiritual root and the three-headed dragon crocodile within the basin, and it couldn't help but show a look of astonishment.

How did this spiritual root become psychic?

With a slight frown, Qiongqi's eyes reversed time, and various past events related to the spiritual root rapidly surfaced, quickly revealing the scene of Taiyi invading the spiritual root.

"It's that kid again!"

Qiongqi was enraged, and the chains binding him tightened, which made him even angrier.

"Cangli clan!"

"Yue Jianshi!"

"Hahaha, you deserve to perish!"

"And you, Nine-Headed Clan, will also perish sooner or later, following in the footsteps of those two scoundrels!"

"When your protection is gone, I'll devour this brat and ruin your plans!"

Qiongqi roared repeatedly, instantly stirring up a monstrous wave in this sea of ​​malevolent energy.

After a long while, seemingly exhausted, Qiongqi finally calmed down, its gaze fixed on the spiritual root, a profound sorrow welling up within it: "That Chaos bastard has already been refined to death!"

"I'm next."

"And that bastard Taotie..."

"That gluttonous fool who only knows how to eat and has no brains will die sooner or later!"

In the ancient times, the lineage of ferocious beasts was incredibly powerful, roaming the earth, the starry sky, and even the netherworld.

Unfortunately, they were defeated in a single battle against the Cangli clan and subsequently lost their momentum.

After being besieged and suppressed by the Yuejian clan and the Jiutou clan, it is now barely clinging to life.

Qiongqi has seen the future more than once, and countless futures show that the divine path will flourish and the great path will prosper, while the habitat of ferocious beasts will gradually shrink until sooner or later they will have no place to stand.

He was willing but powerless, and could only cry out in vain!

Who can blame Him? There are so few beings like Him among the ferocious beasts.

Few of them have any brains, so how can they compete with the Cangli clan?

Qiongqi sighed inwardly.

He never cared about the lives of those mindless beasts; he was simply unwilling to be trapped here and slowly refined to death.

"what?"

Suddenly, Qiongqi let out a surprised exclamation.

However, they saw the three members of the Taiyi clan who had previously transformed into ferocious beasts and sneaked into the desolate mountains.

His gaze pierced through time and space, landing on the three members of the Taiyi clan from the past. He then saw through their disguise and revealed a look of surprise.

What He cared about was not that the three could transform and disguise themselves as ferocious beasts, but that they could refine the evil energy of heaven and earth for His own use.

This is the key, and the fundamental reason why the three of them can roam freely in the wild mountains.

Taiyi was already aware that he could refine the evil energy of heaven and earth for his own use.

But I never expected that just taking a nap would bring such a big surprise.

Qiongqi hurriedly continued to trace the past of Taiyi, and soon saw that the latter dissected a large number of ferocious beasts, and saw that the latter studied the use of evil energy to refine the body with Houtu.

Suddenly, a force interfered, and Qiongqi's gaze into the past was abruptly cut off. All that remained was a fog, and he could no longer discern the past of the Taiyi Clan.

"You damned Nine-Headed Clan!"

"Come out and fight me if you dare!"

"A cowardly turtle!"

"coward!"

Qiongqi couldn't help but roar repeatedly, frightening the powerful beasts outside into trembling.

My ancestor seems to have been a bit irritable lately.

After a while, Qiongqi calmed down and looked at the spiritual root on the other side of the basin again, a smile appearing in his eyes: "Nine-Headed Clan, you want to destroy my ferocious beast lineage, I won't let you have your way."

"Since you've been so protective of this brat, I'll use him to continue my lineage of ferocious beasts, so that one day I can overthrow your divine court!"

He had seen danger in Taiyi.

But now, He sees hope again.

He may not be able to escape his predicament, but he is happy to cause trouble for the Nine-Headed Clan.

Unfortunately, those two bastards, Cangli and Yuejian, died young and didn't live to see it.

……

Unaware that he had been targeted by Qiongqi, Taiyi was controlling his roots to firmly suppress the three-headed dragon crocodile, quietly waiting for the powerful beast's life force to slowly ebb away.

One year.

ten years.

century.

The three-headed crocodile is finally dead.

With the root system retracted, Taiyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Over the past century, many ferocious beasts have invaded the basin, but he has dealt with or driven them away with his root system, making this place a forbidden zone.

The only annoying thing is that stinky monkey Zhu Yan, who comes to spy on us every now and then.

"I'll put you on the lab table sooner or later..."

After glancing at Zhu Yan, who was peeking in again, Taiyi snorted and began to focus on refining his spiritual root.

……

A cave dwelling in the wilderness.

Upon receiving the message from the Five Organs God's clone, Taiyi immediately arranged for his physical body to transform into a ferocious beast and head towards the desolate mountains.

Meanwhile.

At Dragon Horn Peak, all the gods gathered to visit Feng Bai.

However, they were waiting for the Taiyi clan to officially unify the human race before making any moves to interfere and seek to gain more benefits.

But after waiting and waiting, Taiyi made no move and instead went to the wilderness.

I thought there was some kind of plan, but I never imagined that a hundred years would have passed.

When the gods came to their senses, they discovered that right before their eyes, the various human tribes, though seemingly maintaining their old appearance, had actually undergone astonishing transformations.

"Brother Fengbai, we can't wait any longer! If we wait any longer, the second and third Xiaocangshan Tai tribes will appear!"

"Indeed, I observe that the human race has quietly gained over a thousand more gods in the past hundred years."

"That Taiyi clan is as cunning as a fox. After banning licentious and evil rituals, they maintained the status quo to lull us into a false sense of security. They are probably accumulating strength so that the human race can completely seize the initiative!"

……

One by one, the gods spoke.

Feng Bai, however, remained calm and composed, too lazy to expose these deities.

The development of those human tribes was right under their noses, how could they not know?

Does Taiyi have the ability to blind the gods?

However, they were intimidated by the divine power of the Taiyi clan and dared not act rashly.

However, as time goes by, the deterrent effect weakens, and although the human race has continued to worship the gods over the past hundred years, they have actually been constantly changing the rules of worship on a small scale.

The initiative in performing sacrifices has gradually shifted from the hands of the gods to the hands of the human race.

So the gods could no longer sit still.

Moreover, Fengdu also sensed that as the human race embarked on cultivation on a large scale, the quality of sacrificial power was indeed improving, which was of great benefit.

Clearly, the gods also sensed that the power of sacrifice was not in their hands, which made them even more distressed.

"There can only be one Taiyi, how can there be a second?"

Feng Bai said calmly, "Furthermore, we have already lost the previous battle with the Taiyi Clan, so we cannot interfere again."

"Fellow Daoists, what do you intend to do? If we are caught red-handed, I'm afraid things won't end as peacefully as last time!"

Guang Qi immediately replied, "We naturally do not need to participate in the competition ourselves, so we will not be breaking our promise."

"This is not difficult. As the human race grows stronger and its population increases, it is inevitable that it will encroach on the living space of other acquired races."

"We only need to provoke them slightly, and those acquired races will stand up and attack the human race."

"Although there are many gods and cultivators among the human race today, how can they be compared to the numerous demigods of the Dragon Gate?"

Feng Bai remained noncommittal, then asked, "How does Fellow Daoist Li Ling plan to deal with this?"

"She is a true god; if she wields the God-King Sword, even all of you would find it difficult to defeat her!"

A deity immediately laughed and said, "This matter is not difficult to resolve."

"Although we have no one under our command who can rival the Li Ling clan, we can invite fellow Daoists from outside the Dragon Gate to come and help us."

Feng Bai nodded slightly, but then asked in return, "Have you all considered that all of this might be part of the Taiyi Clan's scheme?"

"A century has passed, and the human race has established its dominance. Even with the help of the many acquired races within the Dragon Gate, we cannot suppress the human race's power."

Guang Qi frowned upon hearing this: "What do you mean by that, Brother Feng Bai?"

"Are we going to back down?"

Feng Bai shook his head and said, "I already said in my previous bet with the Taiyi clan that if I lost, I would have to be at their beck and call. You fellow Daoists shouldn't have come looking for me today."

The gods' expressions all changed upon hearing this.

The True God Hemonga roared, "Brother Dao, are you truly willing to be driven around by a mere child?"

Feng Bai glanced at him, then lowered his eyes and remained silent.

He had originally planned to remind the gods.

If we lose this time, it won't just be a matter of human unification.

At that time, the human race, with its overwhelming power, was able to establish itself as the dominant force among all the acquired races in the entire Longmen Mountains, except for demigods.

At that time, the human race not only held the power of sacrifice, but also took over the power of sacrifice from other races that had acquired their own religion.

At that time, the gods will probably have no choice but to sit obediently in the temple and wait for the sacrifices!
