Chapter 1860: 507: Contingency Plan, Swallowing the Sugar-Coating (5k)

After entering the Seventh Floor ring, when Yang arrived, Yu Ziqing briefly recounted the recent events. Yang listened, also frowning slightly.

"Have you noticed that this guy is starting to become a bit irrational?"

"I have noticed, he seems a bit flustered."

Yang pondered for a moment and then stressed his tone.

"What I mean is, pushing this guy to the point of irrationality might not be a good thing.

You forgot, these guys think in a way that's completely different from ours.

Look at the Yang-destroying Devil, that guy used to be one of All Gods, you know.

But later he became a leading opponent of All Gods.

He was the one most eager to cut off All Gods' path.

And this, actually, was when he hadn't lost his mind.

Letting such a dangerous guy lose his sanity and start causing havoc is unlikely to end well.

If he has his wits, both he and we can't afford to lose, hence the standoff.

But if he loses his sanity and starts to gamble, then he can afford to lose.

Can we afford to lose?"

Yang spoke slowly, and Yu Ziqing also fell into deep thought.

"You're right. I really need to change my way of thinking."

In the past, All Gods' paths were intact, All Gods were present, so were fallen gods, and the Ancient Sea God.

The current Tenth Tier path was not open then, so the thoughts back then cannot be identical to now.

The Ancient Sea God now is like someone barefoot, they are the ones wearing shoes.

A barefooted person, if completely loses sanity, it's really hard to say.

Standing from the perspective of the Ancient Sea God, trying to integrate, Yu Ziqing indeed feels it might be possible.

Ever since he planted the seed last time and it clearly sprouted, the Ancient Sea God hasn't been so calm.

One can't tell if this guy might really dare to gamble and pull everyone down together.

By then, the Ancient Sea God might not be completely obliterated, but people in the present world will most likely be the losers.

Everyone loses together, competes on who is worse, as long as the Ancient Sea God isn't the worst in the end, there will always be a chance.

When competing on who is worse, Yu Ziqing truly feels, not just ordinary people, not even among cultivators, those with extraordinary abilities might not outlast this one.

From the previous era, and the era before that, most of the extraordinary ones were worn out.

Yu Ziqing, after much deliberation, said.

"I understand what you mean, my Dao Court is actually a fallback plan.

But now there's a problem, the evolution of the Dao Court hasn't reached the next step.

I must first gather the power of the Kun Character.

Other places are manageable, even Dali, just slightly slow but acknowledging me quite well.

But for Daqian, it might be very, very slow.

It might take a thousand or eight hundred years.

And the focus of the Ancient Sea God's attention is exactly on Daqian.

Just like in ancient times, Dadui was his chosen point of entry.

Now Daqian is in such a mess, with major powers daring to rebel openly, leaving no retreat.

In another thousand or eight hundred years, Daqian might be like the ancient Dadui.

But Daqian doesn't have the Dadui Seal as a fallback trump card.

Even I can't use the Dadui Seal to seal the entire Daqian."

The situation is like this now; Yu Ziqing ignores everything else, first gathering the power of the Kun Character.

It's just to have a fallback option in case of an irreparable situation.

If worse comes to worst, just abandon the present world.

But the Ancient Sea God is now stirring things, causing havoc in Daqian.

Daqian was already declining, and probably didn't have much affection for him, Emperor Dui.

Daqian's current state surely has many Daqian people cursing Emperor Dui behind his back.

They say Daqian became like this because from the time Dadui reclaimed the West Qian homeland.

The result is the more chaotic Daqian becomes, the harder it is for Yu Ziqing to obtain the Kun Character power from Daqian's territory.

So this is a common deadlock problem.

Hearing this, Yang couldn't help but burst into laughter.

After laughing for quite some time, he spread his arms and drew a large circle.

"It's rare to see you conflicted, I think your thoughts are being tied down.

Expand your perspective, and be a bit bolder."

"What?"

"You're asking me? How would I know? Just be as unconventional as you used to."

"..."

Yu Ziqing was speechless, thinking Yang might have some advice.

He thought hard, if the Kun power and Daqian's current situation were pulling each other back.

To bypass this, he needs a new trump card that gives him a sense of security.

Open your perspective, be a bit bolder...

Thinking of this, Yu Ziqing suddenly said.

"Yang, do you remember the Divine Skill you taught me that makes things bigger or smaller?"

"What do you want to do?" Yang had a bad feeling, certain whatever Yu Ziqing would say next would surprise him.

"Do you think it's possible?

If worse comes to worst, just take all the continents of the Four Divine Dynasties in the present world.

East Sea, South Sea, Immovable Continent, and New Continent.

Leave only the deep sea."

"..."

Yang's eyelids twitched wildly, shaking his head directly.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible.

No one has such power, not even the Mountain Lord has such enormous power."

"I'm just asking if there's a possibility."

"If your power is enough, and if the emperors of the Four Divine Dynasties and the Immovable Immortal Dynasty cooperate voluntarily.

Theoretically, it's indeed not impossible."

Seeing Yu Ziqing deep in thought, Yang couldn't help it anymore.
