Chapter 343: The Great Trend of the World, the Submission of the Peacock Clan
Looking at the undertaker in the form of a child before him, the peacock’s eyes were filled with unwillingness.
Because no one would be willing to become a slave to other races or a vassal clan.
“Why, why do you have to target the Beast Clan?”
“You have only offended the Jiaolong Clan and a few other races; why push the entire Beast Clan into a dead end?”
Seeing the peacock’s agitated expression, the child-like Chen Changsheng shook his head with a hint of regret.
“In fifty years, I had thought you would come up with something.”
“Yet your eyes are completely blinded by anger and unwillingness.”
“The Beast Clan has this fate because they are stubborn and unyielding, and it is also the trend of the times.”
“Do you know why I can defeat the strong with the weak every time I act, leaving many stronger than me helpless?”
“Because I am following the trend of the times; standing before the rolling tide of the world, I naturally cannot be defeated.”
Hearing Chen Changsheng’s words, the peacock fell silent, as if pondering something.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng continued, “It seems you haven’t thought it through; let me tell you.”
“More than a hundred thousand years ago, the Lower Realm gradually broke free from your control.”
“From that moment, the great trend of the world began to operate.”
“Over the course of more than a hundred thousand years, the Lower Realm has been constantly resisting, trying to break free from your control and stand on equal footing with you.”
“However, one must admit that you are indeed strong; for over a hundred thousand years, you have blocked wave after wave of beings.”
“You have even driven some destined individuals in the Lower Realm to despair.”
“But the great trend is unstoppable; Emperor Huangtian has emerged, the Jade Emperor has appeared, and the Sword God has arisen…”
“One after another, unparalleled forces have emerged from the Lower Realm, and you cannot stop them.”
“These powers can even be said to have emerged in response to destiny.”
Upon hearing this, the peacock raised its head: “If some have emerged in response to destiny, then others must be destined to perish, right?”
“Yes.”
“The pattern of the Three Thousand Continents has been maintained for far too long; there is no unchanging pattern in the world.”
“The changes in the Lower Realm are the fuse that ignites the war across the Three Thousand Continents.”
“When the pattern changes, some rise to power, some lose power; some stand above all clans, while others fall into the dust.”
“The foundation of the Beast Clan is indeed strong, but you have grown complacent for too long, and the entire Beast Clan has rotted to the core.”
“Faced with this situation, the Human Clan and the Divine Clan will naturally offer you up as a sacrifice.”
“When enough bl**d has been shed, the great tribulation will naturally conclude.”
“Assuming sacrificing the entire Beast Clan is not enough, this can also mitigate some of the great tribulation’s damage to your own race.”
“If worse comes to worst, exterminating the Beast Clan can reduce a variable in the coming great tribulation.”
“Is it too late to change now?” The peacock looked at Chen Changsheng excitedly. “As long as we are not slaves, my Beast Clan is willing to pay any price.”
In response to the peacock’s words, the child-like Chen Changsheng shook his head.
“It’s too late; if you had awakened several thousand years earlier, perhaps you might have had a chance.”
“But now, you have no opportunity at all.”
“The reform of a race is not that simple; it requires time to be gradually honed.”
“Not to mention those ethereal and intangible paths that show no effect in the short term; even just in terms of cultivation methods, your Beast Clan is far behind.”
“The Sea of Suffering cultivation method has been in existence for nearly ten thousand years; how many spirits of your Beast Clan have researched this cultivation method?”
“If I’m not mistaken, among the Beast Clan, only your Peacock Clan has seriously studied the Sea of Suffering cultivation method.”
“In contrast, the Human, Divine, and Demon Clans are all doing their utmost to study the Sea of Suffering cultivation method.”
A gentle reminder: If you think this book is good, to avoid not finding it next time, please remember to add it to your bookshelf!
“In your understanding, the ancient cultivation methods left behind are the most perfect; no other cultivation method in the world can compare.”
“As a strong person, you should know that this idea is flawed.”
Facing Chen Changsheng’s words, the peacock smiled bitterly and nodded.
“You are not wrong; this idea is profoundly mistaken, but what can I do.”
“Sea of Suffering cultivation, Dan, Array Formation, artifact refinement…”
“These things are not suited for the Beast Clan’s training; if they want to be suitable for these paths, then the Beast Clan must transform.”
“But even among other Beast Clans, there are many of my clansmen who oppose transformation.”
“Although I control the Peacock Clan, I cannot control the thoughts of every single clansman.”
“That’s right.” Chen Changsheng nodded. “No one can control all their subordinates’ thoughts; you are like this, and so am I.”
“But the happenings in this world will not cease just because you are powerless to intervene.”
“The Beast Clan is destined to be the sacrificial offering before the great tribulation; this is an unchangeable fact.”
After hearing Chen Changsheng’s words, the peacock seemed to be drained of all energy.
“You speak the truth, so who do I need to submit to?”
“Is it you? Or the Demon Clan?”
“Neither; you need to submit to the Human Clan.”
“To be precise, it is to the Human Clan at the time of the Demon Clan’s decline.”
“The Demon Clan and the Beast Clan are essentially no different; the only difference is that the Demon Clan knows to learn from the Human Clan.”
“Although the Demon Clan is earnestly learning, in the end, the races are different, and the Demon Clan cannot truly become the Human Clan.”
“Especially when the Demon Clan takes the throne, they will abandon the desire to learn, just as you once did.”
“In this way, the Demon Clan will eventually fall from the throne.”
“During that period, you need to support the Human Clan and help them regain their strength.”
Upon hearing this, the peacock quietly nodded and said,
“Understood; then how can you ensure that my Peacock Clan survives now?”
“Or rather, maintains a certain strength to survive.”
“You can rest assured about this; when the Human and Divine Clans made arrangements against you, I spoke with them.”
“The Tian Can, Peacock, and Jiaolong, the three great Beast Clans, have been brought under my command.”
“As long as you do not cause trouble, they will not act against you.”
“Ha ha ha!”
“A familiar feeling; once upon a time, my Beast Clan was also the one playing chess.”
Bitterly reminiscing for a moment, the peacock said,
“I agree to this condition. Do you have any other requests?”
“None. If I had to mention a request, it is that you must strive to survive.”
“Though I promised to save you, I did not promise to let you avoid participating in the great tribulation’s struggles.”
“If you happen to d*e by accident, then that would truly be the end of it.”
After speaking, Chen Changsheng patted Zhi Ze.
Zhi Ze immediately turned and left.
Watching the figures of one person and one beast retreat, the peacock couldn’t help but speak.
“The great trend of the world must unite after division, and divide after unity. Does my Beast Clan still have a day to rise again?”
“Of course, but you must wait for the time when heaven and earth are reborn.”
Chen Changsheng’s voice echoed in the wind, leaving only the peacock standing alone in place.
