Zhu Zhengwei was stunned, a multitude of questions arose in his mind.
Is a Ginseng Fruit structured like this?
But thinking about energy conservation and such, to produce such a heaven-defying treasure, the cost of cultivation is naturally great.
Also, although I knew that in the Journey to the West's Primordial Chaos world, lives were often treated callously, with billions of years passing by and trillions of lives lost, this is just too...
All I can say is, as expected of the Primordial Chaos Universe!
This generated world of the Primordial Chaos Universe, filled with myths everywhere, with ten suns appearing in the sky at a whim, Gonggong provoking Buzhou Mountain, it's too cruel and realistic for mortals.
And in the Mythical Tang Dynasty among it, it's certainly no exception.
"Hahaha, those not of our tribe must have different hearts... Back in my days, I fought and killed those barbarian foreign tribes, leveling countless planets like these," said the decisive Celestial Khan boldly. "Even a clone of Immortal Zhenyuan is left with just this little cultivation, I fear it would be difficult to act against this planet..."
He was enthusiastic, as if it were a trivial task he would help with, "Let me help the venerable senior harvest the souls of the entire planet, and in passing read the memories, to study the knowledge and memories of the universe's all living beings... I'm also interested, gaining some intelligence would be beneficial."
"Hold on!"
Zhu Zhengwei hurriedly stopped him, saving the lives of the people on Earth.
His heart was sweating profusely, and he instantly realized that although these creatures could break through to the outside world, they couldn't sense the miners' special attributes, couldn't see the "Four-dimensional World"...
Couldn't even see the transmission of the "Dream Network Line".
Unaware that they were supplying the world's power in their dreams.
However, not sensing it is a good thing, but if they collect the souls of all living beings on Earth, read the memories in their brains, upon deduction, these smart monsters would certainly know his origin and identity!
Moreover, if the Emperor Tang destroyed Earth, he, a native generated by the Four-dimensional World, would surely die too.
Zhu Zhengwei took a deep breath.
At the same time, he vaguely knew that even though the Emperor Tang said he would help act... it was probably also a test of suspicion towards him.
Because this avatar of his was indeed too weak.
For an existence like Zhenyuanzi, reaching sky and earth, it wouldn't make sense to have just an avatar.
This was inherently an unreasonable matter.
An existence of such level, just a hair plucked from their leg would be greater than an eighth-level divine realm, why would they split off such an avatar, let alone use it to collect the souls of a planet, and still rely on himself?
"This small avatar wasn't sent just for the souls of this planet," Zhu Zhengwei replied blandly, "but for another purpose."
"Oh?" Curious, the Emperor Tang asked with a smile, "Dare I ask the senior what the matter is?"
"Hehe, this matter cannot be told to outsiders in this world, Emperor Tang should just focus on governing the mortal world," Zhu Zhengwei politely declined.
"The Human Emperor understands," replied the Emperor Tang calmly.
Even such a Zhenyuanzi, confronting the Human Emperor of the mundane world, not disclosing at this moment, was normal.
It seems in trying to extract information, pretending to help destroy an entire planet, he still couldn't figure out what this existence was planning on this land.
Zhu Zhengwei continued, "This universe looks barren, but in reality, its rules are special, holding great secrets. I intend to leave this planet, even this entire star realm, as an experimental field, to explore some things."
He paused, then looked at the Emperor Tang, reversing the roles, "Instead, as the Human Emperor, why aren't you tending to your Great Tang territories, monitoring the Journey to the West, how come you've ventured outside the domain?"
But he didn't wait for the Emperor Tang to answer.
Adopting a demeanor like Lady Guanyin, with a very noble and indifferent expression, he looked down at the Emperor Tang loftily, like when he had him acknowledge the Tang Monk as his junior disciple, speaking in a cold tone again:
"Human Emperor of the mortal realm, whatever you wish to do, I do not care, nor do I wish to know your ambitions for this universe... This region has already been incorporated into my territory, if you wish to act upon this universe, you should head to other galaxies, not within this Milky Way."
His voice carried a hint of coldness, while he internally held a bead of cold sweat.
He reversed roles, shifting from defense to offense.
Knowing that remaining passive, continuing to be probed by this fellow through various indications, would likely lead to loss of words, because he knew nothing, just a fake...
He decisively took an offensive stance, declared his territory, telling him to go elsewhere.
It had to be fierce!
Also had to present a demeanor: I am fierce towards you, so what can you do?
Assuming a high-cold attitude that a mere mortal Human Emperor shouldn't overstep his bounds.
"I see, then both parties stay uninvolved with each other, each moving separately."
Though the Emperor Tang's mind was clouded, his face maintained peace, seemingly accustomed to such aloof voices, accustomed to facing domineering overlords.
In his view, from his perspective, he thought the proposal was already quite friendly.
One might even say, it was already the concession of this existence... Perhaps it was Immortal Zhenyuan who opened this passage, allowing him the opportunity to discover and come through...
He considered that he also took advantage opportunistically.
Arriving here was already a great gain, with his capability, traveling to other galaxies was just a matter of momentary teleportation...
Just the time for a cup of tea.
As the Human Emperor, he originally could not interfere in the disputes of those ancient existences, let alone a mysterious universe, his coming here was already a gain.
The Emperor Tang thought for a while, not to anger this ancient potentate, for this one has always been neutral, detached from the world, he cupped his hands and said, "Since it is so, then I gratefully thank the venerable senior."
"Go, Emperor Tang, do not intrude upon this territory, as the Human Emperor, I hope you keep your word," said Zhu Zhengwei with calculated indifference,
"Hahaha, as the reigning celestial ruler, with words as golden as a decree, of course, they will not be taken back," exclaimed the Emperor Tang with a loud and hearty laugh. In his heart, he thought he'd hardly bother about this small place, with more significant lands waiting outside.
"Very well, I shall leave then." Zhu Zhengwei's figure slowly disappeared, fearing to say more would make it easier to reveal anomalies.
"Then, farewell, venerable senior."
The Emperor Tang cupped his hands again, watching Zhu Zhengwei's disappearance, maintaining an unyielding air throughout.
...
Whew!!
In the dormitory, Zhu Zhengwei took a deep breath, a trickle of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Meanwhile, his two silly roommates next to him had no clue what just happened, still boisterously shouting.
"It seems the Emperor Tang's days are indeed tough!"
"Journey to the West, exhausting the people and resources, declaring Mahayana Buddhism as the state religion, causing many grievances in the Great Tang, but that has nothing to do with me."
"Next, we'll see if he adheres to his commitment..."
Zhu Zhengwei looked to the sky, if he didn't keep his word, there was nothing he could do to stop him, he could only shut down the server.
But in the next second, Zhu Zhengwei saw that silhouette leaping away, in the blink of an eye disappearing from his line of sight, into the vast universe.
"Gone."
He felt an unprecedented crisis lift.
Indeed, for mythological emperors of this level, in their worldview, even star systems like the Quicksand River Realm were just lands, so when Immortal Zhenyuan declared establishing a Dao field here, naturally they would give way.
This is, of course, how it should be.
One could say, once Zhu Zhengwei confirmed the identity of Immortal Zhenyuan, he knew that bluffing with borrowed authority, the Emperor Tang would surely grant a favor, sparing a small planet.
