In the year 996 of the Revival Era,
On this day, Jie Long and the Beast Emperors gathered in the Dark Space, which was within Jie Long's territory.
"Are the world's resources this scarce?"
Jie Long gazed at the mountain of resources before it. Though it appeared astonishing, this was the combined output of tens of thousands of异空间 (alternate dimensions)!
The New World, as it was now, was more barren than it had imagined…
"Dragon Ancestor…"
The Nine Nether Giant Python spoke, "There are still quite a lot, but during the transportation process, many were plundered by that human brat."
"Oh? How naive…"
Jie Long showed no surprise and mused to itself,
"Does he wish to prevent my recovery?"
For half a year, it had constantly sensed unknown creatures peeking around, like hungry wolves hidden in the dark night.
Jie Long knew clearly that it was that human brat who possessed spacetime power!
However, it had been busy devouring the other Beast Emperors and had not paid him any mind. As long as it could recover to its peak, destroying humanity would be as easy as flipping its palm…
Roar!
At this moment, Jie Long's mind stirred. The entire异空间 (alternate dimension) became like a giant mouth, devouring the surrounding resources in one gulp.
The Four Great Ferocious Emperors and the Shark Emperor were startled by this.
The stronger the opponent's strength, the stronger the Ferocious Beast Tribe's strength would be.
The Shark Emperor, prostrating on the ground, quickly said, "Dragon Ancestor, congratulations on your strength returning to its peak…"
"Peak?"
Jie Long shook its head and replied, "Still some distance to go…"
Upon hearing this, the Ferocious Emperors were alarmed and instinctively became a little vigilant.
Now that the resources were gone, and the mid and lower-tier Beast Emperors had also been devoured, the only targets seemed to be them…
"No need to worry…"
Jie Long seemed to have seen through the thoughts of the Ferocious Emperors and smiled, Da Feng Novel Network
"This Emperor made an agreement with you, and naturally, I will not go back on my word!"
The Ferocious Emperors let out awkward laughs, and their hearts involuntarily relaxed. As long as they weren't eaten, everything was negotiable…
"Human, are you interested in coming out for a chat?"
At this moment, Jie Long's gaze turned towards the blank space ahead and said,
"This Emperor knows you are here!"
However, there was no abnormality ahead, and it remained perfectly calm.
"How about a trade?"
Jie Long continued to speak to itself, "As long as you can produce a large amount of resources, this Emperor will spare the surviving humans…"
At this moment, about a hundred meters in front of Jie Long,
Chen Shu and his contracted spirits stood in mid-air, in a constant state of combat readiness, prepared to strike at any moment.
Over the past half year, he had also learned of the opponent's identity and strength.
He had initially thought humanity could begin its counter-offensive, but the sudden emergence of the Son of the Beast Ancestor had completely disrupted Chen Shu's plans.
Jie Long's status in the Ferocious Beast realm was equivalent to humanity's "Old Master."
If the Old Master were still alive, humanity might have had a fighting chance. But now, relying on Chen Shu alone, it was becoming a struggle to support them.
In half a year, he had made three attempts, one of which targeted Jie Long, who was in the process of devouring a Beast Emperor.
But it yielded no results!
The mysterious eye on the opponent's forehead could always anticipate Chen Shu's moves in advance.
At this moment,
His gaze was calm as he looked at the Dragon Ancestor before him, slowly revealing his figure.
"Chen Shu? You actually dare to show yourself?!"
The Shark Emperor's mind trembled, and killing intent flared in its eyes.
The other four Ferocious Emperors felt the same, wishing they could tear the human before them to shreds…
"What's wrong? You found a master, and now you dare to talk to your bandit brother like this?"
Chen Shu crossed his arms, a hint of mockery on his lips.
As expected, as soon as this guy spoke, the Ferocious Emperors were instantly triggered…
"Enough, don't be presumptuous!"
Jie Long glanced at the Ferocious Emperors, then spoke kindly,
"Your name is Chen Shu, correct?"
"No need to be so formal, just call me Uncle."
"?"
Jie Long instinctively felt something was wrong and did not fall for it.
"Human, to possess spacetime power at the King-level is an unprecedented feat in ten thousand years!"
"You flatter me."
Chen Shu smiled slightly and said, "Having lived for so many years, your strength is not as good as before. You are quite unusual too."
"…"
Jie Long's forehead was covered in black lines. Chatting with this guy was so difficult…
It stopped its idle chatter, fearing it might lose control of its murderous intent, and got straight to the point:
"Human, what about the trade this Emperor proposed earlier?"
"One word."
Chen Shu raised his eyebrows and said, "No deal!"
"Hmm?!"
Jie Long, upon hearing this, did not get angry. Instead, it turned and asked,
"Then what do you want?"
"Simple! Resource for resource!"
Chen Shu crossed his arms and said, "Ten trillion resources, and I want the corpse of an upper-tier Beast Emperor! As for that shark, consider it a freebie."
Upon hearing this, the remaining Ferocious Emperors instantly erupted in rage.
They were known as supreme powerhouses, yet in Chen Shu's words, they were treated like mere merchandise.
Among them, the Shark Emperor was particularly furious, almost losing its reason.
*You're the one who's the freebie, you brat…*
"Ten trillion to buy an upper-tier Beast Emperor?!"
Jie Long's tone deepened, finding it somewhat absurd…
You really dare to say anything, don't you?!
"You also think the price is too high?"
Chen Shu spread his hands and said, "It can't be helped, I'm just straightforward! How about this, ten trillion and you give me two upper-tier Beast Emperors."
"Are you lacking sincerity?"
Jie Long's gaze turned cold and said, "If that's the case, then inform the rest of humanity to await their doom…"
With that, it was too lazy to continue conversing with the other party.
In just this short while, it had seen through the other party's essence. Indeed, he was a bandit…
"Even if you old geezers die a hundred times, this brother will still be alive and well!"
Chen Shu curled his lips, and at the same time, with his right hand, he tossed out dozens of bottles of nuclear ordnance.
However, it was a pity that Jie Long made a preemptive move and devoured all the nuclear bombs.
During this period, Chen Shu had thrown out all sorts of miraculous elixirs, employing every means possible.
But this was Jie Long's territory, and its strength was unfathomable, far exceeding that of a typical upper-tier legendary being. Coupled with the enhancement of the Beast Ancestor's Eye,
Under all these factors, the gap between Chen Shu and Jie Long was simply too immense.
However, he possessed spacetime power. Not only could the opponent not kill him, but they couldn't even injure him.
The two sides were in a situation where neither could do anything to the other…
"Stuck in a stalemate again?"
At this moment, Chen Shu had already left Jie Long's territory.
He sat alone on the highest peak of the Divine Continent, listening to the howling cold wind, his eyes filled with contemplation.
His original plan was to first kill the lower and mid-tier Beast Emperors, then have Dali cook them to further enhance his own strength.
But now, Jie Long's appearance had directly shattered his original plan.
"Cooperate with Celestial Knight?"
Chen Shu couldn't help but think of another old acquaintance.
But for so long, Celestial Knight had not appeared, as if he had vanished into thin air.
However, Chen Shu believed that the other party would not perish so easily.
Currently, he was likely hiding somewhere, waiting for him and Jie Long to be mutually destroyed…
Although Chen Shu saw through Celestial Knight's plan, he truly had no other recourse.
Even finding the other party was a problem…
Now, Jie Long, Celestial Knight, and Chen Shu were subtly forming a tripartite standoff…
Among the three, Jie Long possessed the strongest overt strength, Celestial Knight was the most mysterious, and Chen Shu had the greatest innate potential…
