Volume Six: Decisions of the Two Great Ancient Nations

Within the territory of the Thunder Ancient Nation lies the sacred site 'Thunder Mountain'.

All nine monarchs reside here in their true forms or avatars, and the Thunder Ancestor spared no expense in setting up terrifying formations, making this the most dangerous place on the entire Origin Continent. It is more terrifying than any capital city of the Yan Feng Ancient Nation.

"Call."

As the wind blew, a figure in Black Robe and a golden mask appeared at the foot of Thunder Mountain.

"The emperors of the Yan Feng Ancient Nation live separately, but most of the Thunder Ancient Nation gather here." Luo Feng looked up at the Holy Mountain, where endless Thunder and lightning spread throughout the mountain range. "Deep within this Thunder Mountain, there should be a Thunder Origin Great Path."

Although the Supreme Rules the Origin Continent contain nine fundamental paths, there is no Thunder Path.

However, with Luo Feng's Mind Will, he could sense that the Great Dao of Thunder was hidden within this Holy Mountain.

The Original Universe may contain a Life Origin Great Path!

The World Beast also contains the Destruction Origin Great Path!

Given the methods of the Thunder Ancestor, it's understandable that a Thunder Origin Great Path would be hidden here.

"Hmm? Black-Robed Golden-Masked Expert!"

"That mysterious Black-Robed Golden-Masked Expert has come to Thunder Mountain?" Thunder Mountain's array covers an extremely wide area. Although Luo Feng may have only arrived at the foot of the mountain, he is already within Thunder Mountain's observation range. Several monarchs were immediately alerted.

Call.

Endless Thunder gathered at the foot of the mountain, eventually Thunder into a White-Robed Old Man whose body was still crackling with Thunder. The power of each Thunder surprised Luo Feng.

"Of the nine monarchs of the Thunder Ancient Nation, I've heard that three are from the Thunder Lineage," Luo Feng thought. "The monarchs of the Thunder Lineage can unleash incredible power from the Primal Chaos Bloodline."

The White-Robed Old Man before them exuded a natural aura of Thunder, each bolt possessing the power of the Emperor Lord Gui Xu or the God King Wu Xin.

When it comes to exploring the Primal Chaos Bloodline, the Thunder Lineage is the most powerful on the Origin Continent. Their Secret Method allow them to be more clear-headed and better tap into the power of the bloodline. Even their secret treasures are very compatible with the bloodline.

"I am Lei Fu." The White-Robed Old Man smiled at Luo Feng. "I have long heard of the Black Robe's reputation." As he spoke, an invisible will spread out and silently invaded Luo Feng.

Boom!

Luo Feng's Mind Will was vast and profound; the White-Robed Old Man immediately withdrew his Mind Will probing at the slightest touch.

"Your Mind Will can even surpass that of a God-King. I admire you," the White-Robed Old Man said with a smile.

"In terms of cultivating the Primal Chaos Bloodline, the Thunder Lineage of the Thunder Ancient Nation is recognized as the strongest in the entire Origin Continent. Who would have thought that even their Mind Will Secret Method are so extraordinary?" Luo Feng exclaimed in admiration.

"You flatter me." The White-Robed Old Man was very curious about the identity of the Black-Robed Golden-Masked Expert before him.

After all, in the entire Origin Continent, those with Mind Will surpassing the God-King level are extremely rare, far fewer than Emperors and Monarchs. Moreover, they are highly effective against Emperors and Monarchs who cultivate the Primal Chaos Bloodline!

Before Luo Feng, even if these emperors and monarchs who cultivated the Primal Chaos Bloodline could remain conscious, their strength would be greatly diminished, thanks to their secret treasures and Ultimate Realm Lifeform!

Even some emperors and monarchs with weaker Mind Will, who usually find it difficult to maintain their composure, are very likely to lose control once attacked by Luo Feng's Mind Will.

"Lord Lei Fu, I fortuitous opportunity obtained a rare treasure, the 'Thousand Dream Fruit,' by chance," Luo Feng said. "I wonder if the Thunder Ancient Nation would be interested?"

"The Thousand Dream Fruit?" Monarch Lei Fu smiled. "Of course I'm interested."

"I want to exchange some of the corpses of the Ultimate Realm Primal Chaos Bloodline Creature," Luo Feng said. "The more corpse materials the better, and they can come from different Ultimate Realm Primal Chaos Bloodline Creature."

Upon hearing this, Lord Lei Fu exclaimed in surprise, "Corpse materials? Even if you obtain some materials, it's impossible to refine a complete Primal Chaos Bloodline. Ultimate Realm Primal Chaos Bloodline."

"I know, I only need a small amount of corpse materials," Luo Feng said. "I have also contacted the Yan Feng Ancient Nation and the Three Great Alien Races. I will ultimately trade with whoever provides more corpse materials."

"Negotiate with five parties simultaneously?" Monarch Lei Fu nodded slightly. "Alright, we, the Thunder Ancient Nation, will discuss this matter internally."

It's quite normal for a treasure of this caliber to be the subject of negotiations between the five parties.

"I hope the Thunder Ancient Nation can give me an answer within three days," Luo Feng said, tossing out a Talisman Token. "Contact me through this Talisman Token then."

"Our Thunder Ancient Nation is willing to pay a high price to purchase these four most precious items," Monarch Lei Fu said, accepting the Talisman Token. "Rest assured, we will definitely give you very satisfactory terms."

Luo Feng nodded, and then vanished without a sound.

Monarch Lei Fu watched this scene unfold.

"The avatar completely self-annihilated, and even the means of communication must be through Talisman Token? What a cautious Black Robe." Monarch Lei Fu glanced at the Talisman Token. He was very curious about the identity of the Black-Robed Golden-Masked Expert, but Luo Feng was clearly very careful in his actions, making it extremely difficult to investigate his identity.

"I've contacted both Lord Lei Fu and Emperor Xuan, and now I'm just waiting for the results," Luo Feng thought to himself in Huyang City.

Emperor Xuan possesses the Clone Technique, and because he is extremely arrogant and concerned with his reputation, other emperors entrust Emperor Xuan with many matters, as he disdains engaging in activities that enrich himself at his own expense. Therefore, it is relatively easy to find Emperor Xuan Emperor Xuan's clones.

"I wonder what terms these two companies can offer." Luo Feng said he was negotiating with five parties, but in reality he was only negotiating with two.

Inside a magnificent hall on Thunder Mountain.

The nine monarchs sat down separately, some in their true forms and others in their avatars.

"Gentlemen."

The current ruler, Lei Xiao Emperor Lord, looked around and said, "Just now, the Black-Robed Golden-Masked Expert wanted to sell us a 'Thousand Dream Fruit.' Since the price of the Thousand Dream Fruit does not exceed 3 billion merits, there is no need to report to the Ancestor. The nine of us can decide on it by discussion."

The four treasures most valued by the ancestors of the two countries and the Three Great Alien Races.

The first two types— Special Lifeform Remains and Secret Method techniques left behind by Yuan—will be personally negotiated by both ancestors, who attach great importance to them.

Rare treasures worth over a billion merits? For those worth less than 3 billion merits, the monarchs can decide collectively. For those worth more than 3 billion merits, the founder will personally negotiate.

Innate Treasure are first assessed for their value by the monarchs. Only those exceeding the profound mystery of the runes on 'Thunder Mountain' are reported to the Ancestor. Otherwise, the monarchs can decide, since treasures inferior to those on Thunder Mountain are of little use to the Thunder Ancestor.

"Is it true that the Black Robe's Mind Will surpasses that of a God-King?"

"Such a strong Mind Will?"

The monarchs were less concerned with rare treasures and more concerned with the strength of the Black-Robed Golden-Masked Expert.

"I used a mental Secret Method to try to contact him," Monarch Lei Fu said. "It is certain that his Mind Will has indeed surpassed that of a God-King."

"These kinds of strong individuals are the most troublesome."

"Another one has appeared."

Many of the monarchs of the Thunder Ancient Nation were quite displeased.

Such powerful beings are too much of a counter to them! Perhaps only the three sovereigns of the Thunder Lineage are somewhat better off; they are clear-headed enough that they would probably only reduce their strength.

"Let's get down to business," Lei Xiao Emperor Lord said. "The Black Robe said he needs 'corpse materials from the Ultimate Realm Primal Chaos Bloodline Creature,' which can come from different creatures, and the more the better. He's negotiating with five parties at the same time, and he'll ultimately trade with whoever offers the most."

"What does he want these corpse materials for? These scraps can't be used to refine a piece of Primal Chaos Bloodline."

"Feed the World Beast?"

"Use these materials to cultivate the physical body?"

"To study the mysteries of materials and comprehend the profound truths?"

"This Black Robe Mind Will and may be using these materials to strengthen his physical body! If both his body and mind are strong, he will be even more difficult to deal with."

The monarchs had various speculations.

The corpse of the Ultimate Realm Primal Chaos Bloodline has many uses, but if a small amount of incomplete materials are found, its uses are greatly reduced.

These monarchs didn't care about the Thousand Dream Fruit, but they were very concerned about whether the strength of the 'Black-Robed Golden-Masked Expert' would increase further.

"Gentlemen, let's get down to business," Lei Xiao Emperor Lord said again.

"It's just a Thousand Dream Fruit; giving him two or three tenths of the corpse material will suffice." The monarchs didn't care; even if they exchanged for the materials, they would ultimately give them to the Thunder Ancestor. The Thunder Ancestor didn't give them much in return.

"The Three Great Alien Races transported these items from other Source World to our Origin Continent, so they brought only precious things. These included treasures surpassing the level of God-King, refined portions of the Ultimate Realm Primal Chaos Bloodline, or complete corpses of the Ultimate Realm Primal Chaos Bloodline beings. Even if they brought small quantities of low-value 'Ultimate Realm Primal Chaos Bloodline Creature' corpses, they wouldn't bring too many."

"Yes, the remains brought by the Three Great Alien Races are generally 'Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform remains'."

"This Black Robe only requires the incomplete corpse of an 'Ultimate Realm Primal Chaos Bloodline Creature,' and the Three Great Alien Races can't provide much of it. On the contrary, the Yan Feng Ancient Nation might be able to provide quite a few incomplete materials."

The small amount of corpse material was insufficient to refine a complete bloodline, so it could only be left in the treasure vault.

"Two or three tenths of the corpse material is indeed enough." They were unwilling to give too much, for fear that it would make the Black-Robed Golden-Masked Expert much stronger.

"Then let's go with 30%." Lei Xiao Emperor Lord made the decision.

The treasure vault contained the remaining fragments of two 'Ultimate Realm' Primal Chaos Bloodline Creature, one accounting for 12% of the corpse and the other for 17%! A total of 29%! To put it nicely, that's equivalent to 30% of the materials from a single corpse.

In the Yan Feng Ancient Nation, the twelve emperors were also discussing this matter.

"The Thousand Dream Fruit has indeed been obtained by the Black Robe," Emperor Lord Jiu Feng said. "In my opinion, there's no need to give him too much. He used the Thousand Dream Fruit to exchange for it, which clearly shows that he desperately needs the biological materials for the 'Ultimate Realm Primal Chaos Bloodline.' We should give him less of what he needs."

"Even the Ancestor didn't value a Thousand Dream Fruit too much," Emperor Lord Kong also said.

"Snort."

Emperor Yan said coldly, "All four treasures are needed by the Ancestor. Although the Thousand Dream Fruit of slightly lower value, we Emperors can decide collectively. However... the Ancestor will eventually investigate every collective decision we make! If you are so careless, who will bear the consequences if the Ancestor becomes angry? In my opinion, we should at least give you a condition that will not anger the Ancestor."

"At the very least, we shouldn't anger the Ancestor," Emperor Lord Xi added.

"I think 20% to 30% is about right," Emperor Chu said. "20% to 30% of the corpses with the Ultimate Realm Primal Chaos Bloodline are definitely not low-quality."

"We have to choose from different corpses," Emperor Yan said. "Otherwise, he might have a special Secret Method to extract a bloodline."

The emperors discussed the matter.

Di Fu watched this scene.

"Gentlemen."

Di Fu finally spoke, "There are currently three incomplete materials from 'Ultimate Realm Primal Chaos Bloodline Corpses' in the treasury, which together amount to Five-Tenths Corpse Material. I think we can use all of them to buy this Thousand Dream Fruit."

"All of them?" Everyone present looked at Di Fu.
