Chapter 432: Speculations of Authority

Elder Lian's contact with Zhou Tieyi was just right. After inviting Zhou Tieyi to formally join the Genting Conference, he politely left.

Not long after Elder Lian and Guan Guan left, Yue Qin made up her mind and said respectfully to Zhou Tieyi, "Sir Yan Huang, our family agrees to work with you to stabilize the Taixu Fantasy Coin plan, but..."

Before Yueqin finished speaking, Zhou Tieyi said with a smile, "The resources I invested, such as ginseng fruit, can be sold by you, just like before."

Now that he has the Taihang Divine Court as his foundation, Zhou Tieyi doesn't feel bad at all about spending his resources. For him, the most important thing is to trade a large amount of Taixu Fantasy Coins, and mix the counterfeit coins he made with the real Taixu Fantasy Coins, and circulate them in the Taixu Fantasy Realm. As for the profit in the middle, it's fine to make some, but it's not a pity if there isn't any.

Yueqin's face lit up with joy. She originally thought that the negotiations with Zhou Tieyi would be difficult. Although their Zhao family, as the bloodline of the Green Emperor, is theoretically not weaker than any force today, the Zhao family also has its own difficulties. At the same time, they also know many real secrets of ancient times. That's why they have unclear relations with Shinto, or to be more precise, with the human gods.

The world is big, and it is far more than just the world of Daxia Yuanmeng. It’s just that because of the holy war back then, everyone can only see this world temporarily.

Before Yueqin's joy faded, Zhou Tieyi continued, "But only you can participate in the transaction. If there are any old guys in your family who want to interfere, don't blame me for using some tricks."

After saying that, the image of the sun behind Zhou Tieyi emitted a blazing white light, which was able to directly penetrate the mirage, making the souls of Yueqin and the panda feel as uncomfortable as if they were facing the scorching sun. Fortunately, this demonstration only lasted for a moment, and Zhou Tieyi returned to normal in an instant.

Yueqin was in awe and bowed respectfully, "Yes, Your Excellency."

He then briefly explained the delivery time and the allocation of resources between the two parties, and decided that the Zhao family would advance the money first, and Zhou Tieyi would follow up one month later. Then Zhou Tieyi walked leisurely out of the Taixu Illusionary Realm. During this process, he was not panicked at all, and it could even be said that he was taking a leisurely stroll in the garden.

On top of the clouds, Elder Lian returned as soon as possible. Apart from him, only the priests of the nine ancient gods were directly involved in the event.

"Blood Priest, can you now tell us His true identity?"

The Bone Priest asked maliciously.

The Lord of Yanhuang first appeared in front of everyone in the Battle of Pingjindu, and then seemed to have reaped great rewards in the battle of Taihang Mountains. At the same time, the blood priest Guan Guan also escaped unscathed. Only the Taihang Mountain pantheon that was with him at the time suffered a devastating blow.

An accurate conclusion that Elder Lian came to after coming into contact with the Lord of Yanhuang just now was that there must be holy power in the Lord of Yanhuang. But apart from everyone's speculation that the other party was the most mysterious Ninth God, in fact, Zhou Tieyi himself completely fits this setting.

Everyone present is smart, and it is impossible for them not to consider this reason.

"No matter who he is, as long as he is willing to come to the Grand Illusionary Realm and dares to come to the Grand Illusionary Realm, he is ours now. In this world, everyone has only one identity."

Guan Guan said meaningfully.

The Bone Priest groaned in silence.

"The blood priest is right."

Elder Lian has always been a peacemaker. "Since He dares to come to the Grand Illusionary Realm at such a critical moment and helps us stabilize the price of Grand Illusionary Coins, He is now fearless regardless of whether it is an enemy or a friend. Rather than making another enemy and letting the Great Xia Emperor take advantage, we might as well choose Him."

"Besides, the task of opening the sea requires someone who possesses holy power besides the eight of you. He is the best choice."

In fact, Elder Lian is also inclined to the speculation that the Lord of Yanhuang who suddenly appeared is Zhou Tieyi. However, the other party is also the reincarnation of the ninth god among the nine ancient gods. The three identities are not contradictory. On the contrary, they can explain why Zhou Tieyi suddenly became enlightened and was gifted by nature. It also explains why the Lord of Yanhuang who suddenly appeared is so powerful.

And now they are actually just choosing whether to go to war with the confident Zhou Tieyi at this moment. On the surface, Zhou Tieyi at least possesses the holy power of the Mohist school, and he is also suspected to have a part of the power as the Nine Ancient Gods in his previous life. If there are strong reinforcements such as Emperor Wu of Wei outside, even if everyone wants to capture him, they will probably have to pay the price of at least one or two deaths.

But what is the meaning of this?
Help the Emperor of Daxia to lighten his burden? Turn a potential friend into a mortal enemy?
"It is necessary to test him. At least we need to make sure whether he is just threatening us with his appearance or whether he really has the strength to form an alliance with us."

The one who spoke was the priest of Canglong. He was of course extremely dissatisfied with Zhou Tieyi's massacre of so many dragons. So after guessing that the Lord of Yanhuang might be Zhou Tieyi, he made a tentative suggestion.

This opinion is extremely moderate and is also reasonable. At the same time, because the other party possesses holy power, everyone is worried about letting a second-rank god general to test him. It just so happens that as soon as the other party leaves the Taixu Illusion Realm, they can make a move to test him.

"Try to be as tactful as possible."

The Phantom Priest finally spoke, his gaze looking straight ahead in the illusory world of Taixu. Of course, he could see that the Lord of Yanhuang was so arrogant, he must have absolute confidence in himself. This was a tacit result for the others to test. For better cooperation in the next step, they tried to be as tactful as possible. At least the best result would be to make sure that the other party had more than just one or two holy powers.

Zhou Tieyi came to the portal that connected the dream world and the underworld. If he left this portal, he would enter the dream world of all living beings. Guan Guan had reminded him before that even though the Taixu Illusion Realm was very safe, he still needed to be extra careful when leaving the Taixu Illusion Realm and returning to his own dream world.

He smiled silently, stepped on the misty mirage clouds, and strode out of the illusory world.

“He’s gone!”

Everyone's spiritual thoughts communicated in an instant, and at the same time, terrifying power erupted in many first-grade bodies. For a moment, the dream space outside the Taixu illusory realm actually had a sense of the beginning of the ancient times.

I saw a huge blue dragon circling in the sky. Each scale was like a transparent mirror of the sky. The bright mirrors reflected the clear sky and stars, and the dark mirrors reflected the night sky, clouds and rain. The friction sound between the scales and the space formed an extremely grand thunderous roar, as if the whole sky was the embodiment of the blue dragon.

Corresponding to the Azure Dragon is a gigantic divine bird, whose flapping wings are like bright red clouds of fire, ignited from the sky and hanging down to the ground, forming active volcanoes ready to erupt, connecting the flames of the entire planet and making the earth seem like flowing magma.

Above the bright red burning core, layers of mysterious yellow power began to cover it, forming winding mountains and rivers, but before the primitive universe in this dream could be opened up.

Zhou Tieyi, who was shrouded in the open universe, had his mind connected to the distant wild world. An invisible pulling force came from the wild world, taking him across time and space, from this open universe to an unknown world.

“Catch up with Him!”

Above the clouds, priests displayed the core rules of their own gods, like stars of different colors, rendering the entire Grand Illusion Realm into magnificent colors. The Azure Dragon was like a blazing white sun, the Phoenix Ancestor was like a falling red star, the Earth Mother was dark yellow, and the layers of underlying space formed the stars themselves, like a maze... The terrifying pressure even made everyone in the Grand Illusion Realm stop their movements. They were shocked and didn't understand why such a strange change had occurred again.

But no matter how brilliant the rules of these worlds are, reaching from one world to another is as difficult as catching the moon in the water.

During this time of traveling, because of the restriction of the power composed of the nine ancient gods, Zhou Tieyi clearly felt that the entire world behind him was holding him back and preventing him from entering another world.

But this grip was not complete. While they were grabbing him, Zhou Tieyi could actually feel the corresponding pulling force from the wild world, as if the pulling force of the wild world was as great as the grip behind him.

When Zhou Tieyi was determined to go to the wild world, in just a moment, his divine body completely disappeared in the dream space outside the Taixu Illusionary Realm.

"He has left and is no longer in this world, at least not in this age."

Above the clouds, vast rules and authorities that were comparable to the origin of this planet gradually faded away, causing the strange visions like the stars, sun and moon to disappear.

But when the power was fading, the group was not completely without gain. At least when they caught Zhou Tieyi and escaped, they clearly felt the wash of the great power of time.

Only under the power of time can the sun and the moon change their trajectories, the ocean turn into mulberry fields, and all the great rules of the world be eclipsed.

"His authority is to travel through time and space!"

Elder Lian said this in a tone of shock and disbelief, and at the same time looked at the Phantom Priest, wanting to get the other party's final confirmation, although the Phantom Priest did not show much power when everyone took action just now.

But if the Lord of Yanhuang wants to participate in the divine meeting next time, he will have to carry that special Taixu illusory mask with him, and this will be the best medium for the Illusion Priest to take action!

Therefore, compared to other tangible forces, the Phantom Priest is more likely to find out the other party's background.

The Phantom Priest nodded heavily, assuring everyone present that his power could not be traced back. At the same time, he was almost half sure of Elder Lian's guess that there really was a god with the power to travel through time and space!

"How is this possible? It's absolutely impossible!"

The priest of Thor shook his head repeatedly. Among all the gods, the power of Thor was actually the closest to time. Although it seemed that the power of thunder was bold and reckless, after fully transforming into thunder, Thor himself had explored some mysteries of time and space, and even realized the mystery of the changes of time, so he knew better the horror of traveling through time and space.

"If He can travel through time and space at will, change history, and thus affect the present, how can we fight Him? We can just surrender one by one. Therefore, His authority is definitely not to travel through time and space!"

Guan Guan sneered, "If he hadn't traveled through time and space, how could he have become the most mysterious of the Nine Ancient Gods!"

At this time, Guan Guan was already extremely certain that Zhou Tieyi was one of the Nine Ancient Gods, or at least the divine fetus of the Nine Ancient Gods.

"Besides, there were gods in the beginning, and gods are the same as Tao. Since the law of time exists, there must be gods who master the law of time. As priests of gods, we should know this very well!"

Guan Guan's words made everyone fall into deep thought, and they could not refute it.

"but……"

Guan Guan changed the subject, "But His authority may not be to change history."

"how you said that."

Priest Lei no longer cared about what Guan Guan said to him. Even if he was a first-class master who had dominated the world for hundreds of years, he was terrified when facing the power to travel through time and space and change the past, because in front of his opponent, he might be as weak as a chicken, and it would always be the same. On the other hand, he couldn't even touch the corner of the opponent's clothes.

"If He could easily change history, then my Lord and the other eight people should have just admitted defeat. There would be no need to fight for the throne of heaven and earth. Rather than saying that He can change history, I would rather believe that His authority can move forward into the future and avoid fatal harm. This way, everything makes sense."

"He is the oldest sun and moon soaring in the sky. His kingdom stretches from eternity to the future. He descends from the sky to the earth and leads the way of God to a new life."

The phantom priest's eyes were as clear and bright as a woman's, and he recited the maxims that all the nine ancient priests knew in a gentle tone.

Then He smiled and nodded, "That makes sense. He cannot change history, but He can hide in the future. However, this method of advancing to the future is also extremely harmful to Him. His authority is not as terrifying as we imagine. He can observe future changes more clearly than we can, which is consistent with what happened to Him."

“Moving forward into the future.”

Everyone thought about it and felt that this reason was more in line with common sense. At least it could make people less desperate. Although this authority and power were extremely terrifying, it was not unsolvable because the past would limit the future. This was also the function of the contract. Why would the other eight of the Nine Ancient Gods believe that he had signed the Nine Gods Contract? It was because they wanted to use the causes of the past and present to anchor the results of the future. Even if the other party could leave the present and enter the future, he would not be able to escape the cause and effect.

Elder Lian laughed and said, "In this way, the first contract among the gods can be perfectly explained. Now we just need to discuss how to restrict Him through the contract."

"In fact, besides the contract, there is another way."

The Phantom Priest spoke calmly.

"any solution?"

Guan Guan asked curiously.

The Phantom Priest looked at Guan Guan and said with a smile, "Just like what the Blood Priest said, "He" has different identities. The current "He" may be the original body or the divine fetus, but we all know that the divine fetus can betray the original body."
