The Daoist rhyme receded slowly like the tide, and Kirin Hall returned to tranquility. Only the mysterious aftertaste was still flowing silently, as if it had drawn a perfect end to this hearty Daoist discussion.
The air is filled with the mellowness of Wutu Essence Qi and the gentleness of Auspicious Qi, which makes people feel calm.
First Kirin has a heartfelt satisfaction and warm smile on his face, which is a kind of heartfelt joy after meeting a close friend on the road and enlightening each other.
He did not order people to offer the Immortal Tea Spiritual Fruit. At their level, those external things were no longer necessary, and the spiritual satisfaction brought by the Daoism itself far exceeded anything else.
He just sat quietly with a relaxed posture, and the thick Peaceful Dao Rhythm naturally flowed around his body, which was already the highest level of hospitality.
No one spoke in the hall for a while, only the unique tranquility and harmony flowing after the discussion.
The three Primordial Origin Golden Immortal were all silently reminiscing about the results of the confrontation on the main road, digesting the sparks of wisdom that emerged from the collision.
After a while, First Kirin saw that the time had come, and his eyes became more solemn and sincere. He looked at Zhenyuanzi and Hong Yun, his eyes were clear and sincere, and he spoke slowly, his voice was still gentle, but it naturally took on the bearing and weight of the Emperor family:
"Fellow Daoist Zhenyuanzi, Fellow Daoist Hongyun." He called the two of them again, his tone more serious than before.
"In this discussion of Daoism, the two Daoist friends' profound Daoist practice, outstanding ideas, and unique understanding of the Tao really made Shi Qilin amazed and deeply admired. The vastness of the world, those who are not only powerful but also magnanimous and have a bright path like these two Daoists, are truly rare and rare talents."
He paused briefly and glanced at the two of them. He saw that their expressions were calm, their eyes were deep, and they showed no signs of impatience or disgust. After calming down for a while, he continued to move forward with the words he had already thought about:
"I, Qilin Clan, have been born with the benevolence and virtue of Primordial Land, Fortune, since the day I was born. What we want is not to become the king and dominate, and to enslave everyone. Spirit, but I am willing to use my own power to protect the peace of this Primordial Land, sort out Earth Veins, and harmonize all things, so that all living beings can find their place and share peace. This aspiration can be learned by heaven and earth."
First Kirin's tone was unquestionable sincerity. He tried to clarify Kirin Race's philosophy first, in order to resonate with the positions that Zhenyuanzi and Hong Yun might hold.
"Looking at the behavior of these two fellow Daoists, whether it is Fellow Daoist Zhenyuanzi preaching to Western Lands to benefit all sentient beings, or Fellow Daoist Hongyun Carefree's original intention to stay out of things and not get involved in disputes, they are not those extremely evil and ambitious people who intend to stir up Primordial Wilderness and cause boundless killings and calamities.
On the contrary, these two Daoist friends should also have compassion and responsibility for this world and these thousands of living beings."
His words were not only praise, but also a kind of test and positioning, trying to draw Zhenyuanzi and Hong Yun into the camp of "order" and "peace".
At this point, First Kirin took a deep breath and finally spoke out the words of solicitation that had been brewing for a long time. His voice was clear and powerful, echoing in the palace:
"Because of this, I am here, in the name of Kirin Race Emperor, sincerely inviting two fellow Daoists to join me Qilin Clan!"
As soon as this statement came out, although they had expected it, Zhenyuanzi and Hong Yun still raised their eyebrows slightly and looked at each other, both seeing a hint of understanding and thinking in each other's eyes.
They did not immediately refuse or question, but listened quietly, waiting for First Kirin to make his terms. This silence made First Kirin feel that the two of them were even more unfathomable.
Seeing that the two people did not object immediately, First Kirin perked up and knew that there was something going on. He immediately threw away the bargaining chip that he thought was the most sincere and said in a solemn tone:
"If these two fellow Daoists are willing to condescend to join, within my Qilin Clan, their status is only lower than that of me, First Kirin! They will sit on an equal footing with me, share the honor of Emperor, and jointly hold the power of Beasts. All orders issued by our clan need to be approved by both fellow Daoists!"
He first clarified the supreme status, which almost divided the family power.
"Not only that," First Kirin continued to add, with a seductive voice, "I, Qilin Clan, have been in existence since the beginning of Primordial Wilderness, accumulated over hundreds of millions of years, whether it is the vast spiritual resources, the rare and rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, or the Grotto-Heaven secret realm that is unique to Primordial Wilderness.
Even the secrets and methods of sorting out our clan's deepest and most subtle control over Primordial Land Veins... Everything can be completely open to the two Daoist friends, and they can be used as they please without any secrets!"
Resources, knowledge, and secret realms are the most fundamental needs of practitioners. First Kirin has opened up almost all the treasure houses of Kirin Race.
"I and the entire Kirin Race are willing to devote all our efforts to protect the two Daoists, search for opportunities for the two Daoists, and help the two Daoists overcome thorns and thorns on the road, go further, and climb to the supreme Primordial Chaos peak!" Finally, he promised the support of the entire clan.
This condition is quite generous! Status, power, resources, and support include almost all the support a practitioner can imagine.
Especially for newcomers like Hong Yun, Primordial Chaos, and Zhenyuanzi, who aspire to be at the top of the road, the full support of a top class family is extremely tempting.
The reason why First Kirin spared no effort to win over First Kirin, while Dragon Clan Ancestor Dragon and Phoenix Race Yuanfeng never proposed similar solicitations after discussing Daoism, is rooted in the different nature and character of the three emperors.
The way of Ancestor Dragon is the fusion of the vastness of water and the absolute hegemony of the imperial way.
What he believes in is that "all the people in the world are the king's land; those who lead the land are the king's ministers." His imperial way is to dominate everything, to control everything, and to be above all things.
What he needs are subordinates and generals who absolutely obey and obey orders and prohibitions, not "comrades" or "allies" who can compete with him and may even threaten his unique status because of their strength.
In the eyes of Ancestor Dragon, no matter how powerful Zhenyuanzi and Hong Yun are, they are still "outsiders". If they cannot completely bow down and surrender, they can only be objects that need careful cooperation and use or vigilance when necessary. There is no way they can enter the core of the Dragon Clan's power and share his authority.
The way of Yuanfeng is a combination of the violent destruction of fire and the immortality of Nirvana, as well as the arrogance of the imperial way.
Phoenix is born noble, while Nirvana True Meaning emphasizes its own detachment and eternity.
What flows in her bones is pride that cannot be blasphemed and absolute confidence in the power of her own blood.
She has a strong desire for control and has clear racial boundaries. It is extremely difficult to tolerate the appearance of "outsiders" in the clan who have the same status as her and may even share Phoenix Race Fortune and glory.
Her path is more inclined to rely on the collective power of her own Supreme Dharma Power and Phoenix Race bloodlines. She lacks a sufficient trust foundation to absorb top foreign powers, and is also worried that it will dilute the pure bloodline and will of Phoenix Race.
Cooperation is possible, but integration into the core? Absolutely impossible.
But First Kirin is completely different. The foundation of his imperial way originates from the thickness, stability, carrying and nurturing of the earth, and evolved from benevolence, auspiciousness and protection. He has an honest nature and does not like fighting. He values "harmony", "co-prosperity" and "long-term peace and stability".
He believes that true strength does not come from the absolute authority of one person, but from the collective strength and internal unity.
He is willing to treat others with sincerity and convince others with virtue. By sharing power and resources, he can gather like-minded strong people to jointly strengthen Kirin Race, cope with the unpredictable future of Primordial Wilderness, and realize the "peaceful and prosperous age" in his heart where all things are harmonious and all living beings are safe and peaceful.
In his opinion, Zhenyuanzi and Hong Yun are powerful, firm in their Daoism, and their ideas are not tyrannical. They are ideal partners who can be used as aid to jointly practice the Tao.
Paying a huge price to win over them will not only greatly enhance Kirin Race's top combat power and heritage, but also use their wisdom and strength to better realize the group's ideals.
In the hall, as the conditions of First Kirin were opened, silence fell again. The air seemed to be stagnant.
First Kirin's eyes were burning, with incomparable sincerity and expectation, watching Zhenyuanzi and Hong Yun closely, waiting for their responses.
His heartbeat accelerated a little involuntarily. If this deal could be reached, Kirin Race's future would be completely different.
The choice between Zhenyuanzi and Hong Yun is not only related to their own paths, but will also invisibly affect the delicate balance of Primordial Wilderness Three Races in the future.
