Being the transcending existence at the Forbidden Spiritual Zones, the totem clan could not get involved with the secular powerhouses. Besides, almost no conflicts in the secular world could tempt them.
Do not look at how the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates are fighting with each other, in the eyes of the totem clan, it was an incredibly childish and ridiculous matter.
If the totem clan was willing, they could turn the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates into ashes as they pleased!
However, although not many things could tempt them, it did not mean there were none that could.
For example, Xuan Yuan Wei was incredibly tempted by that Graceful Spiritual Bow.
Also that ancient formation caused all the Xuan Yuan elite warriors to feel a surge of powerful attraction.
Xuan Yuan Yang, being the Head Chief of the Xuan Yuan Clan, naturally he would be considering higher things. He knew that even if the rumor of that ancient formation was true, there must be a lot of things involved in it.
When the Xuan Yuan Clan was tempted, could it be that the other totem powerhouses would not be tempted? The Forefather Dragon Clan of the Endless Eastern Sea, the Farmer God Clan of the Heavenly Fire Southern Border, the Fire God Clan, the Karakorum Immortal Clan of the Illusion Heavenly Lake, and the Dark Mysterious Clan of the Extreme North Snow Zone.
No matter which of the five powerhouses, they would not be weaker than the Xuan Yuan Clan.
If the totem powerhouses fought each other, it would be difficult to predict the outcome. No one could guess the amount of chaos that would ensue.
…
The other major totem powerhouses, of course, could not refrain themselves from discussing this matter. Besides the Karakorum Immortal Clan exhibiting a clear attitude, some were observing, some were radical, and some were hesitant…
At one of the mysterious corners of the Tian Xuan Land, Li Buyi dressed as a scholar could hear many different versions.
A strange smile emerged on his face as he mumbled to himself, “This little one is truly growing at a fast pace. Even the totem powerhouses are paying attention to him. It seems I must beat some sense into them. Or else, it would be difficult for him if the totem powerhouses sent out some of their people. That would be exceeding the games rules.”
…
Within the Karakorum Immortal Clan, all the Supreme Dao elite warriors also arrived at King Cicada’s cave dwelling. Silver Cicada was a woman, dressed in silver garment from head to toe, she appeared to showcase a superior temperament. Covered by a layer of faint silver yarn, she exhibited an elegant presence.
“Head Chief, according to our intelligence, all totem elite warriors from each Forbidden Spiritual Zone are showing signs of restlessness. Our Illusion Heavenly Lake cannot fall behind, right?” When that Silver Cicada looked at King Cicada, who closed his eyes and was silent, she felt incredibly imbalanced. According to what she intended, the Karakorum Immortal Clan should make their move immediately.
Additionally, the Karakorum Immortal Clan had a much more sufficient excuse than other totem powerhouses if they made a move. They could just use the Graceful Spiritual Bow as an excuse to find trouble with Qin Wushuang.
King Cicada stroked his thin beard and said with a smile, “Silver Cicada, how much of a winning chance do you think we hold when we make this move?”
“If all major totem clans make a move our winning chances should not be more than twenty percent? After all, there are as many as six totem powerhouses.”
“Yes, with just this twenty-percent hope, it’s not wise to put my Karakorum Immortal Clan into the fire.”
“Fire?” Silver Cicada was confused. “Head Chief, why would you say this? For the conflicts between totem powerhouses, there should be no collusion with one another, right?”
“The totem powerhouses are vigilant with each other, this would be impossible” King Cicada said indifferently. “Silver Cicada, don’t be hasty, I believe that soon you will know my reasoning.”
“Head Chief, how can I not be anxious? When the Graceful Spiritual Bow was lost, there has not been a moment I have felt peace. If the Head Chief does not make a move, I plan to do it myself. Regardless, I must let the Graceful Spiritual Bow return to the Karakorum Immortal Clan,” Silver Cicada said with a determined tone.
“Silver Cicada, do not be rash.” For the first time, a stern expression appeared in King Cicada’s eyes.
“Head Chief, you are truly… You stand aloof from worldly affairs too often! This is not like you. Thinking back, our Senior King Cicada was more involved than this. How come you cannot make up your mind on this matter?”
Silver Cicada was filled with questions.
From the side, Snow Cicada pulled up her sleeves. “Silver Cicada, don’t be too stirred up. You cannot contradict the Head Chief.”
King Cicada revealed a bitter smile. “It’s fine to contradict me. I do not mind. Silver Cicada, sit down, let me ask you and you will answer a few questions of mine calmly and without stress.”
Silver Cicada sat down angrily. “Go ahead and ask, Head Chief.”
“Yes, I will ask you. Since the ancient times, did that Graceful Spiritual Bow belong to my Karakorum Immortal Clan?”
Silver Cicada was stunned as she bit her lip lightly. “I don’t think so.”
“Have you heard about the rumors of the Graceful Spiritual Bow?” King Cicada asked again.
“I’ve heard them. The one who gets the Graceful Spiritual Bow will have great luck and great fortuitous opportunities. Those without great fortune will not achieve this great luck. Back in the years, Senior Brother Golden Cicada… Ah!”
“Silver Cicada, you are the sister to Golden Cicada, I understand how you feel perfectly. However, the death of Golden Cicada proves that in the end, he did not possess great luck. And before Golden Cicada, what did the Graceful Spiritual Bow do to my Karakorum Immortal Clan? How could you treat the Graceful Spiritual Bow as something of the Karakorum Immortal Clan just because Golden Cicada once had it?”
Silver Cicada said, “At least, Senior Brother Golden Cicada was the only owner to the Graceful Spiritual Bow that was recorded in history for the past ten thousand years.”
King Cicada gave a slight sigh. “What you said also makes sense. Then let me ask you again, initially when the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates came to the Immortal Leaf Flying Boat, did you send people to play tricks on the Immortal Leaf Flying Boat in suspicion of seeking revenge?”
“Yes, I do not deny this fact.” When Silver Cicada talked about this matter, she harbored great anger. “Golden Cicada died unjustly and improperly at the Xuan Yuan Mound. Why would it matter to let them suffer a little hardship? It’s truly hateful, we let those disciples of the Xuan Yuan Mound win the championship. Whenever I think about it, my blood boils.”
“Silver Cicada, you can have resentment towards the Xuan Yuan Clan and you can have such emotions. However, as everyone is going after that Qin Wushuang, you must not get involved in this matter.”
While he spoke, King Cicada gestured with his hand and a message talisman evoked dazzling light on the center of his palm just like a tiny pearl.
“It has come, it came earlier than I thought. It seems that Brother Li is truly being overprotective, ha ha.” King Cicada shot it with the tip of his finger gently and said to Silver Cicada, “Listen closely.”
Silver Cicada showed a flabbergasted expression as she held her breath with rapt attention. When that message talisman was broken, Li Buyi said with an indifferent voice, “King Cicada, you have not forgotten the words I said to you last time at the cave dwelling, right?”
It was just a simple sentence and there were no other words. Yet, King Cicada showed endless joy as if a peach had blossomed before his face.
He formed a message talisman and poured in his spiritual perception. With a flick from the tip of his finger, it shot out.
Silver Cicada was somewhat confused. “Head Chief, who is this? He dared to call your name directly?”
“Silver Cicada, this person is called Li Buyi. If there is anyone even the totem clan cannot afford to offend at the Tian Xuan Land, this Li Buyi is one of the few.”
“Who is he, Li Buyi?” Silver Cicada could not help but ask. She looked at Snow Cicada who was on the side, she also showed a face full of confusion.
King Cicada gave a long sigh. “Li Buyi, perhaps only the leaders of the totem clan are qualified to know his name. Even for me, I must call him Brother Li with respect.”
“Brother Li? Head Chief, what nonsense are you talking about?”
A spark flashed across King Cicada’s eyes. “Silver Cicada, do you know about the God Discarding Door?”
“Of course I know about it. The God Discarding Door that is rumored to be activated every tens and thousands of years. It harbors endless luck and is also the door that can produce endless destruction. How could I not know?”
“What you know is only the surface,” King Cicada said lightly. “The God Discarding Door is a historic relic of the immemorial war of gods and also the destined door to the Tian Xuan Land. Breaking out of the God Discarding Door, you can achieve the Dao of Supreme Gods, soar to the galaxia, live eternally free and unfettered.”
“Soar to the galaxia, ha ha, it sounds easy. For these tens and thousands of years, I have never heard of anyone who has trained to the stage of Soaring Galaxia. Does the Heavenly Supreme Dao truly exist?” Silver Cicada still refused to believe it. As she trained to her current state, she was only at the Fourth Calamity Genuine Supreme Dao Stage.
At the level of Genuine Supreme Dao, the disparity between each Calamity were incredibly obvious. Even for one at the Second Calamity, they could easily deal with three or five First Calamity Genuine Supreme Dao elite warriors.
The leader of the totem clans were almost old monsters at the Eight Calamity Stage. Even so, they could never call the Ninth Calamity Stage, nor did they have the courage to call upon it.
It was because until this moment, across the tens and thousands of years of history, a few who went to make a dash from the Peak of the Ninth Calamity Genuine Supreme Dao Stage, all failed without exception!
In other words, the Eighth Calamity Genuine Supreme Dao was almost the limit of the Tian Xuan Land. If one were to make the dash, one would only perish during the breakthrough.
“Perhaps, the Heavenly Supreme Dao truly exists,” the voice of King Cicada was determined and steady.
“Who is at the Heavenly Supreme Dao Stage?” Silver Cicada was greatly astonished.
“The person that sends this voice, Brother Li Buyi. It’s highly possible that he’s at the Heavenly Supreme Dao Stage!”
“He… In the end, who is he? He’s at the Heavenly Supreme Dao Stage? Wouldn’t one at the Heavenly Supreme Dao Stage be able to soar to the galaxia? Why would he stay at the Tian Xuan Land?” Silver Cicada was confused.
“He… He is the controller of the God Discarding Door. People only know that the totem clan are the top existence at the Tian Xuan Land. Yet, they do not know that the one that truly governs the fate of the Tian Xuan Land is the continental controller, Li Buyi!”
“Continental controller?” Silver Cicada and Snow Cicada exchange a glance and both were full of astonishment.
“Yes, controller of the fate of the Tian Xuan Land. Only this controller can grasp the direction and he is the true navigator! For totem powerhouses, before the controller, they must follow the rules of the controller! The controller holds all the rules of the Tian Xuan Land!”
Silver Cicada said with a stammer, “Then… Then this controller is related to Qin Wushuang, whom we wants to deal with?”
“They are related, and greatly related. Before the Ten Thousand Year Pilgrimage Pageant, Brother Li came to my cave dwelling. He came for that Qin Wushuang!”
Silver Cicada was completely stunned. Now she finally understood why the Head Chief exhibited an indifferent treatment. All the reasons lay with that continental controller.
“Could, could that Qin Wushuang be someone shielded by the controller?”
“No!” King Cicada said seriously. “Qin Wushuang is only a person in which the controller thinks highly of, but not someone he is to protect. The Controller does not plan to shield him, he only wishes to not let there be a great disparity of bullying. If the totem clan steps out to deal with Qin Wushuang, this is too big of a disparity. This will surely attract the interference of Brother Li. I believe that those totem powerhouses who are on the move must be under a lot of pressure.”
When King Cicada spoke up to this point, the smile on his face flourished even more. He truly wanted to see the expression on those other totem elite warriors now.
