Sincere negotiations did not earn them any respect.

Then they could not blame him for resorting to unconventional tactics!

This might cause a small portion of the Heaven and Earth Merit to spill over to the three races.

But compared with the loss of the Five Needle Pine, as well as the Heaven and Earth Merit gained after the creation of writing, it was not worth mentioning at all.

Moreover, while he intended to follow the Hiding Path, he knew perfectly well what his identity was and what his future goal would be.

Hong Jun, the Primordial Wilderness's greatest master of hiding, was the example Di Tian intended to follow.

Whenever he had the chance, he would not only scheme all his enemies to death, but also seize all their possessions for himself.

A bloodless, foolproof revenge

was his greatest pursuit at present!

After reaching their decision, the two first headed to the East Sea, the closest place to them, seeking the Dragon Race's written inheritance—the Dragon Seal.

Five hundred years later, Di Tian and Wang Shu arrived in Dragon Race territory in the East Sea. Taking out two sets of Five Elements Pine Nuts, they announced their visit to the mountain gate over the sea below.

"I am Di Tian, Master of Ziwei Emperor Star. Having traveled to the East Sea, I have come specifically to pay a visit to Ancestor Dragon."

"I wish to exchange Five Elements Pine Nuts borne by the Top Grade Innate Spiritual Root, the Five Needle Pine, for a copy of the Dragon Race's written inheritance."

"Please, Ancestor Dragon, show yourself!"

As Di Tian's shout spread throughout hundreds of millions of miles of surrounding seas,

the previously calm surface of the sea suddenly churned violently. Massive waterspouts connecting heaven and earth rose from the sea in an instant!

At the moment the vast ocean split neatly to either side,

ten thousand Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals at the Taiyi Realm, escorting five Sea Patrol Yakshas of the Great Luo Realm and a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon at Great Luo Perfection,

marched in perfect formation toward Di Tian and Wang Shu, their baleful aura soaring to the heavens.

"I am Ao Qing, Ancestor Dragon's eldest legitimate grandson."

"My grandfather already knows what you seek."

"This is a copy of the Dragon Seal. You may take it and leave."

Neither servile nor overbearing, Ao Qing took the prepared copy of the Dragon Seal from his robes and tossed it before Di Tian with his magic power.

"Remember this: status does not determine everything. At times, even what heaven has decreed can be changed. I hope you know what is good for you and do not bring ruin upon yourself."

With that, he put away the Five Elements Pine Nuts suspended between heaven and earth. Saying nothing further, he led his subordinates back into the East Sea.

Di Tian paid Ao Qing's words no mind.

After all, in his eyes, the other party was already dead.

Rather than getting angry with him for nothing,

it was better to hurry onward, obtain the written inheritances of the Qilin Race and Phoenix Race, and complete the Script Creation Enterprise.

The two immediately changed direction and headed for Qilin Cliff, the ancestral land of the Qilin Race.

This journey took more than a thousand years.

And as soon as Di Tian arrived outside Qilin Cliff and announced his visit, Wu Tu, Ancestor Qilin's eldest legitimate grandson, brought people over and tossed a copy of the Qilin Markings before him.

His attitude was even more arrogant and his words even more vile than Ao Qing's.

Di Tian simply picked up the item and left without the slightest response, completely ignoring Wu Tu, whose Vicious Qi was steadily rising.

Pitiful people must have something hateful about them.

There was a reason the Dragon Race and Qilin Race ultimately suffered the deaths of most of their clansmen, their fortune corroded by Sin and Karmic Force, leaving their people with no hope of ever breaking through to the Great Luo Realm again.

The Phoenix Race was located in the Southern Undying Volcano Group.

Its territory lay far from the Central Primordial Wilderness, deep within the Southern Continents.

With the Undying Volcano Group at its center, the surrounding area spanning hundreds of millions of miles was covered in endless Nether Abyss lava. Countless active volcanoes towered between heaven and earth, constantly erupting scorching magma.

Even the skies above were not filled with white clouds and mist, but flame clouds woven from crimson and ash-gray.

The heat was so intense that even Taiyi Golden Immortals would be burned. Anyone below the Taiyi Realm who touched it would instantly turn to ash.

Southern Blazing Fire, Nether Abyss Divine Fire, Lei Gang Divine Fire...

Tens of millions of heavenly divine flames and sources of exotic fire, both named and unnamed, could be found everywhere here.

Di Tian and Wang Shu had only just entered the range of the Undying Volcano Group and had not yet announced their visit,

when a luan bird wreathed in azure divine flames flew out from within. It transformed into a breathtakingly beautiful young woman in a green gauze dress, who politely bowed to greet them.

"I am Qing Luan, Yuan Feng's foremost direct disciple. Greetings, Master of Ziwei Emperor Star. Greetings, Master of Taiyin Star."

"Our clan leader is already waiting for you both in the Ten Thousand Phoenix Palace. Please follow me."

Di Tian had not expected the Phoenix Race to be so courteous.

As expected of the race that had first recognized the problem and chosen to stop during the final stage of the Three Races Calamity.

Judging by their manner alone, they were thousands of times better than the Dragon Race and Qilin Race.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Qing Luan, for leading the way."

"All who come are guests. It is only proper for the host to go out and welcome them."

Qing Luan smiled and nodded, then led Di Tian and Wang Shu through layer upon layer of volcanoes to the Ten Thousand Phoenix Palace where Yuan Feng resided.

"Fellow Daoist Di Tian, Fellow Daoist Wang Shu, welcome."

Inside the Ten Thousand Phoenix Palace, Yuan Feng appeared exceptionally gentle and courteous. The moment she saw Di Tian and Wang Shu enter, she rose to greet them.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan Feng, we have come this time to borrow the Phoenix Race's inherited writing—the Phoenix Script."

"These are Five Elements Pine Nuts borne by the Five Needle Pine, one of the Top Grade Innate Five Elements Spiritual Roots. They possess the wondrous effect of helping one comprehend the Five Elements Law and enhancing the corresponding origin."

"Since the Phoenix Race primarily cultivates the Fire Element, aside from these two sets of Five Elements Pine Nuts, I also offer two Fire Element Pine Nuts nurtured for dozens of Eons. I hope Fellow Daoist Yuan Feng will accept them."

"Hahaha... Fellow Daoist Di Tian, you are far too polite."

"It is merely a small written inheritance. How could it be worth such expense on your part?"

Yuan Feng smiled and waved away the Five Elements Pine Nuts Di Tian offered.

With a peculiar gleam in her eyes, as though flaunting the Phoenix Race's strength and perhaps praising herself, she spoke of the Phoenix Race's future prospects.

"The Phoenix Race is already one of the three great races of heaven and earth. We possess countless Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, magical artifacts, and divine weapons."

"And this is only the result of the Phoenix Race remaining in one corner, without competing with the Dragon Race and Qilin Race for lands beyond the Southern Continents."

"Once I break through to Mixed Origin Golden Immortal Perfection, I will surely lead the Phoenix Race to rule the world and become the true overlord of heaven and earth!"

"At that time, if you are willing to join the Phoenix Race, I am willing to abdicate and offer you the position of Emperor."

Listening to Yuan Feng's boastful words and seeing the strange look in her eyes, Di Tian understood somewhat.

She was not showing off the Phoenix Race's foundation to him.

She was inviting him to marry into the Phoenix Race!

So that is why the Phoenix Race's attitude is so vastly different from that of the Dragon Race and Qilin Race.

She was waiting for me here!

But I am the Master of Heaven, Earth, and Man, the supreme emperor destined to rule the Primordial Wilderness. How could I possibly marry into the Phoenix Race?

If Yuan Feng were to submit to me instead, that might be worth considering.

As his thoughts churned, Di Tian understood that Yuan Feng would not accept the Five Elements Pine Nuts, so he instead chose to offer her a few words of advice.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan Feng, heaven and earth of the Primordial Wilderness have long had their fixed destiny. The time to rule the world has not yet come. No race can take the throne of ruling over all living beings."

"Furthermore, if you commit too much slaughter, Karmic Force and Sin will inevitably erode the Phoenix Race's fortune."

"When that time comes, the mire of war and the flames of mad rage will not be things you can easily bring to an end."
