Chapter 200

“A case of lifting a stone only to drop it on your own foot!” A powerful figure couldn’t help but exclaim.

The actions of the Ancient Imperial Clan were indeed a clear case of lifting a stone only to drop it on their own feet. Not only did they lose face, but they were also insulted and didn’t even have the opportunity to talk back.

“Hahaha, the way the Ancient Imperial Clan reacted to seeing that Nangong Jing was as if they had seen a savior, their eagerness was truly comical!”

“Isn’t it more like a dog seeing a bone?”

“Don’t say that, it really does look like it!”

“If I were those members of the Ancient Imperial Clan, I’d probably never dare to show my face again. What a disgrace!”

“To think that the dignified higher-ups of the Ancient Imperial Clan were deceived right under everyone’s eyes. It’s truly shameful!”

“Especially that Great Saint from the Golden Crow Clan, acting as if he saw his long-lost father. It’s absolutely hilarious!”

“Indeed, it’s quite funny!”

The various factions couldn’t hold back their laughter, all breaking into fits of chuckling. It wasn’t that they wanted to mock the three great Ancient Imperial Clans, but their actions were simply too amusing to ignore.

“Not destined for greatness!” A powerful figure from the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox Clan shook his head and then left.

The other factions also left one after another, leaving only the three great Ancient Imperial Clans behind.

“Today’s humiliation, I shall remember it! In the future, it shall be repaid a hundredfold!” A strong figure from the Golden Crow Clan spoke through gritted teeth, filled with immense hatred.

This time, they truly suffered a great loss. Not only did they fail to obtain what they wanted, but they were also bombarded by the Heavenly Tribulation, causing damage to their Emperor Weapon, and several Saints had fallen.

And the mastermind behind all of this, not only obtained what they wanted, but they were powerless to do anything to them. They were even pointed at and cursed in the face, yet had no recourse.

Shame, humiliation.

It seemed that even these words could not fully describe their current predicament. In any case, they suffered every possible disadvantage, while the other side took all the benefits.

If it weren’t for the Primordial Holy Land being too powerful and the Ancient Imperial Clans being disunited, they would have already wiped out the entire Primordial Holy Land to vent their hatred.

“Forget it, we don’t have the capability yet to deal with the Primordial Holy Land!” A strong figure from the Vermillion Bird Clan left a word of impatience before departing.

Unlike the Golden Crow Clan’s stubbornness, he knew in his heart that to seek revenge against the Primordial Holy Land, their current strength was simply insufficient. Only if someone attained the Dao could they have a chance to take revenge. Otherwise, there might be no opportunity at all.

“Hmph.” Huang Tian also coldly snorted before leaving with his people.

This time, he had lost all face and gained nothing, which filled him with immense anger and frustration. Since birth, he had never suffered such humiliation!

“Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully playing it safe and obtaining the Primordial Dao Technique!”

The notification sound slowly echoed.

Jiang Chen’s eyes flickered, his expression calm as he carefully comprehended the Primordial Dao Technique. The more he understood, the more surprised he became.

“The Primordial Dao Technique—the origin of the Great Dao, the beginning of everything!”

This Technique expounds on the Great Dao from the very beginning, analyzing the origins of all Dao. Through cultivating this Technique, Jiang Chen could analyze any Dao, starting from its origin. This means that any Dao before him would be laid bare, with no secrets hidden from him.

Although it lacks overwhelming power, the functionality of this Technique far exceeded Jiang Chen’s imagination.

“What a terrifying Technique! I wonder who created it, to be able to analyze the Great Dao from its very root!”

“By comprehending the Great Dao from its origin, one can perceive all Daos. With this Technique in hand, I won’t need to take any detours on my path, and it will be a smooth journey ahead!”

The more he comprehended the Primordial Dao Technique, the more amazed Jiang Chen became.

However, many times, due to shallow knowledge and a lack of understanding of the Great Dao, the path one walks may not necessarily be the correct one; instead, it might be wrong or lead to detours.

This often causes a large number of cultivators to stop progressing, unable to walk a true path. Countless practitioners become stuck in their own paths, unable to escape their predicaments for their entire lives.

But with the Primordial Dao Technique, things are different. By comprehending the Great Dao from its origin, understanding the myriad Daos, one can find their own broad and open path without encountering any detours.

Moreover, the path Jiang Chen is cultivating—the path of mastering the myriad Daos—destines him to delve into countless Daos. This implies that the road ahead will be extremely difficult, full of obstacles, and fraught with danger.

To carve out a suitable and flawless path from the myriad Daos is exceedingly challenging. However, with the Primordial Dao Technique, Jiang Chen can avoid these pitfalls. There will be no so-called detours, only a broad and open path.

“Indeed, this reward is extraordinary!” Jiang Chen thought to himself.

Although he had anticipated this, he was still astounded. The main reason was that this reward was incredibly terrifying. Even though it did not possess the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, its value was immeasurably precious.

It is a true priceless treasure. Forget about the Nine Heavens Realm—even if it were thrown into the Immortal Domain, it would incite countless powerful beings to fight over it. It would undoubtedly cause a storm of blood and chaos.

“Here’s the item for you! As for how to use it, that’s up to you!” The Third Ancestor tossed the Pure Yang Root to the Pure Yang Holy Master and said indifferently.

Although this item had caused some disturbances, in the end, the situation was resolved perfectly. At least the Ancient Imperial Clan didn’t get it, reducing some threats.

Moreover, giving it to the Pure Yang Holy Land would also strengthen their power in the future. If they grow stronger in the future, it would also enhance the overall strength of the Primordial Holy Land.

After all, the two are like brothers, and their relationship is undeniable. The main reason is that the Pure Yang Holy Land has stepped forward countless times. If they don’t give something in return, it wouldn’t be justifiable.

After all, the Pure Yang Holy Land has walked through fire and water for the Primordial Holy Land. No matter the situation, they always provide full support, never questioning who the opponent is.

Allies like this are rare. Otherwise, even if the Pure Yang Holy Land doesn’t mind, over time, issues would eventually arise within their alliance.

“Now that it’s over, I’ll take my leave!” The Sect Master of the Supreme Dao Sect cupped his hands and then merged into the void.

“Next time something like this happens, remember to call us!” The Emperor of the Qin Dynasty said with a smile.

Having experienced several previous incidents, he knew very well that following the Primordial Holy Land was the right choice.

The Primordial Holy Land would not mistreat them, and even though they did not gain much this time, they didn’t mind.

The curse that had troubled them for years had been lifted, and this alone was enough to be grateful for. Besides, he believed that if the Primordial Holy Land asked for their help in the future, they would certainly be rewarded.

Perhaps it wouldn’t be as good as the Pure Yang Root, but resources would surely be abundant.

With everyone bidding farewell, the people of the Primordial Holy Land returned to the Banished Immortal Peak.

Jiang Chen, as usual, returned to his seat and said calmly, “Although there were some errors, this matter has been perfectly resolved!”

If he hadn’t intervened, the matter of the Pure Yang Root would have likely led to a great battle across the Nine Heavens Realm.

In the original story, this was exactly the case; various forces fought fiercely over the so-called Pure Yang Root, leading to significant weakening, especially the heavy losses suffered by the Pure Yang Holy Land.

However, due to his involvement, only the four great Ancient Imperial Clans suffered losses, while the other forces remained intact. It could be considered a perfect outcome.

“Now, because of the matter of the Pure Yang Root, the Immortal Phoenix Clan will certainly be unwilling to ally with us in the future!” The Third Ancestor said in a deep voice.

Although the situation was resolved perfectly, they had completely torn their face with the Undying Phoenix Clan. If they wanted to ally with them in the future, it would likely be impossible.

Especially if they acted against the True Dragon Clan, the Ancient Imperial Clans would definitely get involved, and the Undying Phoenix Clan would not stand on their side.This is not a good thing.

“Third Ancestor, Huang Tian is a schemer. Losing a little face means nothing to him!”

“Moreover, he knows how to weigh the pros and cons. He understands better than we do whether his pride or the survival of the True Dragon Clan is more important.”

“Losing face might result in mockery for a while, but if the True Dragon Clan’s plan succeeds, it will be a matter of life and death for the Undying Phoenix Clan! Which do you think he will choose?”

At this point, Jiang Chen paused for a moment and said meaningfully, “Besides, we may not even need to ally with the Immortal Phoenix Clan!”
