Chapter 2143 Total
After fighting with Shi Jinming, Yi Tian estimated the strength of the opponent. Although the leader of the Stone Clan was in the late stage of the fusion, his cultivation was still somewhat different than himself. The Stone Clan cultivators were extremely talented, but this was also the biggest constraint that hindered their development.
Later, Yi Tian also expressed his judgment on him, but unexpectedly pointed out Shi Jinming's shortcomings and the biggest obstacle to improving his cultivation now.
Then Yi Tian took out the information he had obtained after traveling to various realms and shared it. Shi Jinming naturally knew very well about the situation he faced. After listening to the analysis, he fell into silence. Seeing this, Yi Tian naturally made a fuss while the hot bell tribe and the Huangquan tribe briefly explained the foreign exchanges between the Manjiao tribe and the Huangquan tribe in the Hell Realm over the years.
It is impossible to say that Shi Jinming is not moved. It is very difficult to move forward after improving his cultivation to the fusion stage. If you have a slight chance, you have to try it.
But from his words, he learned that the Stone Clan's strategy has been self-proclaimed for thousands of years and has never left the Hell Realm. Now it is not a matter for him, the patriarch, to decide the world with just one word.
In the Hell Realm, the Stone Clan monks have the largest number and the widest distribution. There are also many divisional strengths in the Stone Clan's territory. Shi Jinming at least has the final decision after convening a meeting of the clan leader.
In addition, he is also concerned about the invitation from the boy from the Netherworld. The opportunity to go to the Netherworld to explore the entrance to the fragments of the Immortal World is not a good thing that is often found. If you miss this village, you will not have this store, so he was also very confused and difficult to make up his mind.
After seeing this, Yi Tian smiled faintly and said, "Fellow Daoist Guanshi seems to be hesitant about taking the cross-border step. I don't know what your concerns are. If you can do it everywhere, you may be able to come up with ideas."
Shi Jinming sighed and said, "To be honest, I have indelible flaws in my Stone Clan's talent, so my position in the Hell Realm is not very beneficial."
"Fellow Daoist Shi means that the Stone tribe is at a disadvantage when dealing with other major races in the Hell Realm," Yi Tianshi asked.
"That's true," Shi Jinming said with a gloomy face: "I guess it's a bit time for fellow Taoist Yi to come to the Hell Realm. You should see how other clergymen treat the people of my Stone Clan."
Speaking of this, Yi Tian recalled it and then understood what Shi Jinming said. These low-level stone monks were all enslaved by other clans and treated as hard laborers. Because their natural soul power was weak, even if they had a strong body, it would be useless.
Only when the stone clan monks improve their cultivation to the level of spiritual cultivation and the power of the soul will there be a significant increase in the power of the soul that can get rid of the enslavement of the soul. Speaking of which, these low-level stone clans will be regarded as slaves, and even if they grow up, they may not be able to reach a very high level.
The large population of the Stone Clan will make mistakes even under the care of the high-level Stone Clan monks. I guess this is Shi Jinming's biggest problem.
Yi Tian smiled but disagreed with this. Now he has sent Yan Wenxiong to this world to integrate the power of casual cultivators. This stone clan seems to be a force that cannot be ignored. If he can get along well with it, the power of casual cultivators in this world will definitely be able to get along with it.
After thinking about it, he spoke, "I have some connection with the casual cultivators in this world. If fellow Taoist Shi believes that, he can send his subordinates to Manjiao City to consult with the people from the casual cultivators alliance."
"Manjiao City is Wan Gang's territory. If my people enter with great fanfare, wouldn't he come forward to stop him?" Shi Jinming said with suspicion: "But it's better to deal with Wan Gang of the Manjiao Clan than Yan Qiu of the Huangquan Clan."
"Oh, why did Fellow Daoist Shi say this?" Yi Tian asked.
"Yan Qiu is a man who is self-confessed and advocates the theory of orthodox bloodline. Therefore, under his rule, the Huangquan clan's direct identity is obviously preferred over other races," Shi Jinming explained: "As for Wan Gang's Manjiao clan, he does not mind intermarrying with foreign tribes, and will also take mixed-blood people for his own use. This alone shows that his tolerance is far better than Yan Qiu."
"Fellow Daoist Shi said it well, so I asked you to send someone to Manjiao City to contact the casual cultivators there," Yi Tian said: "It is imperative that the Stone Clan wants to change the current situation. If even your clan members are unwilling to contact the outside world, they will only be more isolated and will not be able to shake their own disadvantaged position."
"The Manjiao Clan is going to take advantage of the situation to rise and compete with the Huangquan Clan for the position of the overlord of the Hell Realm, so there is a strategy of opening up the door," Shi Jinming said, "It is hard to guarantee that when they get the power, they will treat our Shi tribe more severely."
It turned out that Shi Jinming still had this concern, and Yi Tian looked up to him a little bit. Since he could take all aspects of the matter into consideration so detailedly, suppressing the Huangquan clan would not guarantee that the Manjiao clan would become the dominant one. Instead of being so laborious and labor-intensive, it would be better to follow the steps.
After thinking about it, Yi Tian waved his hand and said, "Fellow Daoist Shi does not have to worry so much. In the future, the situation in the Hell Realm will not become the world of the Manjiao Clan, but a situation of cooperation among various races. I think if one or two high-level monks can appear among the casual cultivators, perhaps they will become an existence that cannot be ignored after being integrated."
"Then what fellow Taoist Zhaoyi meant was to support the Alliance of Random Cultivators, so that he could also prevent the Hell Realm from becoming the world of a certain clan. Is this correct? "Shi Jinming raised his eyebrows and asked.
"That's true," Yi Tian nodded and replied. Talking to smart people can indeed save a lot of energy. Shi Jinming's concerns are nothing more than fear of suppressing one after another. If the cultivator comes forward to integrate, it is a different matter. These cultivators without foundation will not be able to do it even if they gain power. They do not expect that the Huangquan tribe has been rooted in the hell realm for tens of thousands of years and is also connected with the underworld. With the blessing of both parties, it is not easy to shake their overlord status.
Then Yi Tian said: "Fellow Daoist Shi can first communicate with the Manjiao Clan and the casual cultivators in this world. Communicate other interfaces through their channels to find the opportunities or treasures you need. In the end, it is not too difficult to replenish yourself by leveraging the power to achieve your goal."
Shi Jinming fell silent again when he heard this, but this time he didn't have much doubt on his face, but instead he was calculating the gains and losses of the clan. After a while, Shi Jinming slowly said: "Okay, since it's fellow Taoist Yi's suggestion, I should consider it carefully. You are right. The Shi clan has been in the Hell Realm for too long, and it's time to find an opportunity to change it."
"Did Fellow Daoist agree?" Yi Tian said with a smile.
"Although I am a little bit in the clan, I am still afraid that my subordinates will disobey the emperor," Shi Jinming said lightly: "So I still have to discuss this with the elders of the clan. I believe that as long as they have a clear mind, they will definitely not be so arrogant."
"That's good," said Yi Tian, after that, he took out two jade slips and handed them over to him: "Fellow Daoist Shi, please call people to contact the Manjiao Clan and the casual cultivators of Manjiao City. There is a casual cultivator named Yan Wenxiong who is my disciple. He is now operating in Manjiao City. You can send his tribe members to find him. I believe that when he sees the contact letter, he will definitely give the Shi clan convenience."
Shi Jinming took two jade slips and opened them to browse them quickly. He found that these two letters were for Wanjiaolan, the Manjiao Chamber of Commerce of Manjiao Clan, and Yan Wenxiong. Although he did not directly contact the monks in the fusion stage, Shi Jinming's cunning could naturally vaguely guess who the backer behind these two people was.
After Shaoqing put away the jade slip, Shi Jinming turned around and looked at Yi Tian in front of him and asked, "Fellow Daoist Yi is a demon cultivator, why is it so involved in my hell realm?"
"If I said that it was a moment of interest, I'm afraid that Fellow Daoist Shi wouldn't believe it," Yi Tian joked.
"The cultivators in the world come all for the benefit of profit. I don't believe that there is a gentleman who does it," Shi Jinming said seriously: "It is better to make friends with real villains than dealing with hypocrites. Besides, fellow Taoist Yi is not both."
"Fellow Daoist Shi said it straightforwardly just like my wish," Yi Tian smiled and said, "Actually, my purpose is also very clear. I guess the boy from Netherworld has already known it with you after he came."
"The entrance to the fragments of the Immortal Realm of the Netherworld," Shi Jinming's pupils froze in his eyes: "It's similar to what I guess, but why do you want to form an alliance with the Manjiao Clan in the Hell Realm to suppress the Hell Clan?"
"Fellow Daoist Shi thinks how powerful are the people who explore fragments of the fairy world this time?" Yi Tian changed his mind.
"Of course, the Netherworld Boy is the strongest. Next is me, Old Ghost Wu Heng, and Yan Qiu and Wan Gang, and the strength of Yan Qiu and Wan Gang are slightly worse," Shi Jinming blurted out without thinking.
"Since that's the case, fellow Taoist Shi should guess my purpose," Yi Tian smiled and said, "It is not very beneficial for you to dominate the Netherworld Boys. If I can have the strength to compete with it, I naturally don't need to be afraid of him. Moreover, there are many crises in the fragments of the Immortal World, if there is any slightest strength asymmetry, it will definitely affect the next exploration."
"Fellow Daoist Yi has indeed been thought about it," Shi Jinming said with a gloomy expression on his face: "Although I am not familiar with the boy from Netherworld, I am not aware of the well water, so there is no need to be biased towards you."
"It is precisely because of this idea that the Netherworld Boy secretly guided everyone's pace," Yi Tian's face changed and said, "You and I, Wan Gang, the strength of the three of them is enough to match the other party. In this way, even if they join forces, they will only be in a state of struggle. Moreover, when I saw Netherworld Boy coming to exchange treasure materials with fellow Taoist Shi, it seemed that he was a bit arrogant and powerful, but he did not make concessions when the situation was pressing."
This sentence seemed to talk about Shi Jinming's painful foot, and what happened before was very controversial. Although Shi Jinming expected Yi Tian to see it, he did not expect to say it directly. Yizhang's gray-white stone face was not bloody, and it should have been so red at this time.
On the contrary, Yi Tian was completely disdainful. He already knew the other party's strength. Moreover, he also understood the position of both parties. If Shi Jinming had an attack, it would mean that this person was just a reckless man and was completely unsuitable for his cooperation.
After a while, Shi Jinming adjusted his emotions and said sternly: "Okay, fellow Taoist Yi said it right. Instead of always compromise like this, our Shi tribe might as well fight for it and strive to find a place in this change in the hell world."
"Since Fellow Daoist Shi has made up his mind, does it prove that he can work together with me?" Yi Tianshi asked.
"The journey of the fragments of the Immortal World is not good, let alone the boy Netherworld said that his two clones were broken in your hands and they were unable to take care of you. Such an existence comes to me to discuss cooperation with you, no one can think about it anymore," Shi Jinming said firmly: "But I also have my conditions, I hope Fellow Daoist Yi can agree."
Although he couldn't see the expression on his face, Yi Tian also heard a strange smell from his tone. Then he asked lightly: "I wonder what fellow Daoist Shi has to ask?"
"First of all, we must let the Stone Clan monks abolish the enslavement of the Manjiao Clan. I believe that if they take the lead, other races in the entire hell world will slowly follow or restrain themselves," Shi Jinming said seriously.
"This matter is OK. I will agree on it for fellow Taoist Wan Gang first," Yi Tian replied without thinking.
Seeing that he was so cheerful, Shi Jinming was slightly stunned. It seemed that he did not expect that he would be so easy to speak. After all, the situation of low-level monks in the stone clan being enslaved can be traced back to ten thousand years, and it is not a simple sentence to accept it.
If the person who replied was Wan Gang, Shi Jinming would also feel some concerns, but when facing Yi Tian, he vaguely felt that the other party's words were indescribable and convincing. It might be a matter of cultivation strength, and the difference was not a little bit or two. Those who can get rid of the two clones of the crazy clones are definitely not a good thing. But when this is said from the mouth of the boy from Netherworld, it is naturally extremely credible.
This cooperation is like a shocking gamble. Even if Yi Tian loses the bet, he can return to the original interface to make a comeback. However, Shi Jinming's fate is to maintain the entire Stone Clan, and once he loses, he will be doomed.
But on the other hand, the current status of the Stone Clan in the Hell Realm is in danger. The number of people is large but it has been enslaved by the other tribes for a long time. If you want to change the current situation, you can only find a little opportunity. Now this opportunity is delivered to your door. As the leader of the tribe, Shi Jinming also knows how to choose, but he also wants to win the greatest rights for his tribe members, so he puts forward conditions at the end.
"Secondly, my people will enter the component chamber of commerce in Manjiao City as an equal capacity, and let the Manjiao tribe help and help to go to the other interfaces," Shi Jinming said again.
"That's natural. Since everyone should work together to cooperate, this convenience is necessary," Yi Tian replied without hesitation.
"In the end, the Manjiao tribe will help our Stone tribe rescue those enslaved by other tribes," Shi Jinming said.
