These words are well-reasoned and supported by evidence.

Ye Xuan believed that the Ancestor Minghe had no choice but to agree.

Upon hearing these words, the Ancestor Minghe's expression changed drastically.

Is the Human Emperor sending someone to invite him into this tribulation?

This is a bit ridiculous, isn't it?

As we all know, the so-called Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods the Gods is about to begin in the Primordial World.

It was the great calamity personally orchestrated by those same few Saint.

Even the most powerful beings in the Primordial World couldn't escape it, so how could they possibly enter this calamity so easily?

Even if Ancestor Minghe were to enter the great calamity, it might still be a situation where he faces a slim chance of survival.

After all, the opposing side has several Saints.

Wouldn't it be foolish to oppose Saint?

Thinking of this, the Ancestor Minghe's expression turned somewhat unpleasant:

"The Human Emperor has truly devised a clever plan, actually using the Primordial Violet Qi to lure me, his ancestor, into tribulation?"

"I fear that once I, your ancestor, enter this tribulation, I will face a near-death experience. At that time, wouldn't my Ashura Clan be utterly doomed?"

Upon hearing the words of the Ancestor Minghe, Ye Xuan immediately curled his lip.

No wonder the Ancestor Minghe has been able to exist for so long.

It should be noted that many powerful figures from his era have already perished.

This guy still exists? That's incredibly cowardly!

To put it nicely, it's called being cautious; to put it bluntly, it's called being cunning and opportunistic!

They clearly claim that the Blood River will never run dry and the Minghe will never die.

Despite having cultivated 480 million Blood God Son Clone, he is still so timid.

That's really unbelievable.

Ye Xuan couldn't help but reveal a contemptuous smile:

"Ancestor Minghe, you were originally an Innate being, having already cultivated to the Quasi-Saint realm in ancient times, and have long since reached the state of immortality and eternal existence."

"Having survived until now, yet still unable to break free from its constraints, perhaps it's time to have lived long enough?"

Hearing Ye Xuan's slightly sarcastic words.

The Ancestor Minghe's expression was also grim and uncertain.

What the other person said was certainly true; he had long since grown tired of it.

It could even be described as being utterly bored.

Not only him, but aren't all those other eternally existing great beings the same?

With no hope of breaking through, they could only eke out a living under the shadow of those few Saint.

How could this not inspire despair?

However, this was not a reason for him to die.

Even if you've lived long enough, you can't just throw your life away so easily, can you?

Seeing the Ancestor Minghe's grim and uncertain expression, Ye Xuan decided to continue tempting him:

"Ancestor Minghe, you are a powerful being of countless ages, so why do you lack this much courage?"

"The opportunity is right in front of you, and you don't even know how to cherish it? Do you want to continue being a coward in this stinking ditch?"

"Stinky ditch???"

Kong Xuan, who had been strolling nearby, chuckled upon hearing this.

That guy is really wicked.

They actually described the boundless river of blood as a stinking ditch.

But it does seem to be somewhat fitting.

As the saying goes, "When a whale falls, all things come to life!"

All sorts of evil and filthy forces from the Primordial World converged into the Netherworld Blood River.

The Netherworld Blood River is indeed a stinking ditch.

The Ashura Clan, who had been watching this from afar, were instantly enraged upon hearing these words.

This damned guy, how dare he show such contempt for the Netherworld Blood River?

The Netherworld Blood River was described as a stinking ditch?

Isn't that just courting death?

Their eyes were blazing with fury, and they couldn't wait to swarm him and kill him.

The Ashura Clan is born with a tradition of Slaughter Dao, so naturally they have no fear of these two Quasi-Saint powerhouses.

Upon hearing this, the Ancestor Minghe's expression naturally changed repeatedly.

His gaze was fixed on Ye Xuan, and the killing intent in his eyes was palpable.

Looking at the murderous Ancestor Minghe, Ye Xuan smiled slightly:

"Ancestor, although my words may have been somewhat crude, I believe you understand my meaning."

"Even those two despicable Westerners have become saints, don't you want to seize this opportunity that's been handed to you?"

"Are you really that afraid of death?"

The Ancestor Minghe stared at Ye Xuan with murderous intent:

"Although I've lived long enough, I won't commit suicide."

"The Human Emperor tricked me into entering this calamity, to become an enemy of those Saints. How is this any different from suicide?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan instantly understood what the Ancestor Minghe meant.

Was the Ancestor Minghe worried about those few Saint?

"Ancestor, your words are surprising. There have only been six sages in the entire Primordial World Saint."

"Among them, the Wushuang Saint Tongtian is naturally in the same camp as the Human Emperor."

"I believe you, Ancestor, are aware of this as well. Besides, it's highly likely that Empress Nuwa will side with the Human Emperor."

Ye Xuan paused slightly at this point, a strange and unpredictable look appearing in his eyes.

"The current Human Emperor also possesses Craftsmanship Surpassing Nature divine power. Although he cannot yet become a saint, with the Human Emperor presiding over Chaoge, even the Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun cannot act arrogantly in Chaoge."

"A clash Saint is naturally nothing for you to worry about, Ancestor."

Upon hearing this, the Ancestor Minghe's eyes narrowed slightly.

They were clearly taken aback; if that were true, then the Human Emperor would have two Saint behind him.

And among them was the Wushuang -powerful Saint Tongtian.

Once the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation is set up, it cannot be broken by anything less than the Four Saints.

With Nuwa's assistance, the difference in strength wasn't too significant.

"The current Human Emperor once said that although he cannot break free from the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, he has already found the method to do so."

"Once he breaks free from the shackles of Heavenly Dao, he will immediately head to the Fire Cloud Cave to retrieve the Nine Cauldrons. With the help of the Nine Cauldrons' fortune and the assistance of the eight ancient sages of the Human Clan, he might even greatly increase his strength."

"Because the current Human Emperor has already found the method to become Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal."

Upon hearing this, the Ancestor Minghe's body suddenly trembled.

His eyes were fixed intently on Ye Xuan.

His eyeballs were practically popping out.

Is this really true?

Ye Xuan's words shocked the Ancestor Minghe immensely.

The Human Emperor actually possessed the method to achieve the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal realm?

How is that possible?

But he also had a vague feeling that this might actually be a possibility.

That's why they were so shocked.

PS: Let me explain the power levels of strong individuals in the Primordial World, from lowest to highest:

The Postnatal! The Innate! Earth Immortal! Heavenly Immortal! True Immortal! Mystic Immortal! Golden Immortal! Primordial Unity Golden Immortal! Daluo Golden Immortal! Quasi-Saint! Saint!

Among them, the Innate are also called Human Immortal or Loose Immortal!

Earth Immortal, also known as Land Immortal!

True immortals are counted starting from Heavenly Immortal!

Actually, this division of realms is incorrect.

Because above the Daluo Golden Immortal, the true realm should be Half-Step Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal (equivalent to Quasi-Saint) and Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal (equivalent to Saint), which is the orthodox path.

Ye Xuan achieved the Quasi-Saint through physical cultivation, but he did not follow the Method of Severing the Three Corpses. Therefore, strictly speaking, Ye Xuan's realm should be called Half-Step Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal, not Quasi-Saint in the traditional sense.

The strength of Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal is equivalent to that of the Saint Realm, but they transcend the Saint Realm.

The Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal relies on the Laws of Chaos and cultivates the Laws of Chaos.

The Saint Realm relies on the Primordial World Heavenly Dao, which is the purple energy bestowed by Hongjun.

However, because the cultivation of the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal is too difficult, there has not been a single successful case to date.

Therefore, when the beings of the Primordial World cultivated to the level of Daluo Golden Immortal, they abandoned the cultivation of Hunyuan Great Luo and instead cultivated the path opened up by Dao Ancestor Hongjun, taking the path of Hongjun and choosing the path of sainthood by severing the three corpses.

While one may not be able to reach the Saint Realm, one can at least achieve the Quasi-Saint.

It can elevate one's strength to a higher level.

This section defines the realm divisions, which are crucial to the later plot. Fellow readers, please read it carefully!!!
