Chapter 1153 Mercy
"But I'm afraid that Gonggong alone may not be enough. Buzhou Mountain is so lofty, how can it be restored with the power of Gonggong alone? I'm afraid it will need more blood of the Wu clan."
"Your Majesty knows this when you think about it, that's why you came to me on purpose. Otherwise, why does Your Majesty ask my opinion if you just let Gong Gong die alone?"
Empress Houtu thought for a while and continued.
If only Gonggong can be sacrificed to reshape Buzhoushan, then there is no need to wait for outsiders to speak, Gonggong will do it himself, why bother to be in pain all the time.
Moreover, Buzhou Mountain was also collapsed by Gonggong, and he was asked to sacrifice himself to reshape Buzhou Mountain. There is no need to discuss this kind of matter with Empress Houtu, because the result cannot be changed without discussion.
If only one person from Gonggong can be sacrificed to reshape Buzhou Mountain, then no one in the whole prehistoric world would disagree.Because in the eyes of outsiders, Gong Gong really deserved what happened.
"It's true that I can't hide it from my mother. Buzhou Mountain was transformed from the spine of the great god Pangu. It is naturally difficult to reshape it with Gonggong alone. Even if I can collect all the fragments of Buzhou Mountain, it is still difficult to restore it. Totally remodeled."
"That's why, at this time, the help of the witch clan is needed. And the ordinary witch clan is useless, it must be the ancestor witch."
"The Twelve Ancestral Witches are all formed by the blood of Pan Gu. If you want to reshape Buzhou Mountain, the best choice is actually to let the Twelve Ancestral Witches blend into it together."
"In this way, after absorbing the blood essence of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, the fragments of Buzhou Mountain will be better condensed together, recreating the supreme power of Pan Gu."
When saying these words, the more Jiang Chen spoke, the lower his voice became.
This matter is indeed a great thing for the prehistoric world, but for the Wu Clan, it requires them to give up all their heritage since ancient times.To tell the truth, if Jiang Chen was Empress Houtu, he would never agree to this matter anyway.
Nine of the twelve ancestral witches have already died. How can we still collect their essence, blood and origin?For others, this is difficult.
But for Jiang Chen, this was not the case.The Heavenly God Banner, the supreme treasure of the witch clan in his hand, contained the blood essence of the fallen ancestor witch.At the same time, this is also the basis of their resurrection.
But now, what Jiang Chen had to do was to use the power that the Wu Clan was going to use to resurrect the fallen ancestor witches to reshape Buzhou Mountain.
This kind of thing is no longer as simple as cutting the flesh of the Wu clan, but killing them.
In order to revive the fallen ancestral witches, the Wu clan has been accumulating power since the end of the ancient times, and has accumulated a huge amount of power today.
This powerful force is used to cultivate the arrogance of the clan, and it may not be possible to cultivate a few Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.
It was such a powerful force, Jiang Chen wanted the Wu Clan to hand it over, how could the Wu Clan be willing?
"Reshaping Buzhou Mountain is important. The matter of resurrecting the elder brothers can wait. But the matter of reshaping Buzhou Mountain cannot be delayed. Things should be prioritized, and the most important thing is to reshape Buzhou Mountain."
"Even if the brothers are still alive, they will agree with my decision. In their hearts, Bu Zhoushan is more important than their own life."
Just when Jiang Chen was thinking about how to persuade Empress Houtu to agree, she agreed without any hesitation.
"Ah this..."
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, and then said with admiration: "It's Jiang Chen who has treated the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. The empress is merciful. How can he hesitate when he hears such a big event that is beneficial to the prehistoric land? There will be no threats of conditions."
This is the difference in being a human being. Empress Houtu is really compassionate and takes the world and the common people as the most important thing in her heart.Jiang Chen, it can't be said that he is fake and compassionate, it can only be said that he values interests more.
Even if it is a good deed, it must be a good deed that is beneficial to him.If it was not a last resort, he would never take the initiative to do such a good thing that would harm his interests.
But even if you only do good deeds that are beneficial to yourself, that is still a good deed. In front of others, it is not a problem to be called a great benevolent person.
But in front of a true saint like Empress Houtu, Jiang Chen's kindness was not enough.
"Your Majesty still puts too much emphasis on interests when acting, but it's no wonder His Majesty."
"This is the case in this era today. The morals of the world are corrupt, people's hearts are depraved, interests are more important than everything else, and the atmosphere is far worse than in the early days of the ancient times. It is normal for His Majesty to be affected when he was born in this world."
Empress Houtu understood Jiang Chen's thoughts. Different eras and different ethos naturally gave birth to strong people with different personalities.
The modern atmosphere is far less simple than when the world was first opened. It is normal for people in the world to value profit, because people who do not value profit will not live long in this world.
Unlike the era when the world first opened, even conspiracies and tricks were rare.Moreover, defeating the enemy with intrigues and tricks will not only not be admired by others, but will be despised by others.
The people Jiang Chen had come into contact with before were all profit-seeking people. When communicating with people, he would inevitably have the idea of profit-seeking, otherwise he would not know how he was tricked.
On the contrary, when he met a merciful person like Empress Houtu, who truly cared for the common people, his ideas were a bit out of the question.
He is really merciful, he doesn't care about gains and losses at all, he would rather suffer losses for himself than benefit the prehistoric world.
However, Empress Hou Tu could not care about gains and losses, but Jiang Chen could not.In this matter, he must not let Empress Houtu suffer.
Otherwise, his reputation will be ruined.
Cooperating with allies, but the allies have suffered a lot, but I have gained a lot of benefits. Isn't this pure deception?If word got out, who would dare to cooperate with him in the future?
So, I heard Jiang Chen say: "Your Majesty, the Witch Clan is not at a disadvantage in this matter as a whole, just let me analyze it for you."
"The power used to resurrect the ancestor witches will be used to reshape Buzhou Mountain. It seems that the witch clan has suffered a loss, but they have won the future."
"After all, the way of heaven is supreme, how can it be possible for the meritorious ministers of the prehistoric period to suffer. At that time, it will definitely give a lot of benefits to the Wu clan."
"Not to mention, the Wu Clan is still favored by the Great God Pangu. This time, the Wu Clan is reshaping Buzhou Mountain. If the prodigal son turns back and the Pangu Great God sees him, he will definitely be happy, and maybe it will also give the Wu Clan a lot of benefits. .”
"With the benefits given by Heavenly Dao and Pangu Great God, the Wu Clan will certainly pay a high price in order to reshape Buzhou Mountain, but they will get more benefits in the future."
"Just like those fallen ancestral witches, when we resurrect them now, it can be said that there are many obstacles. Even heaven and earth are unwilling to see them resurrected. Therefore, the power required to resurrect them is several times that of a strong person of the same level."
"But as long as the Wu Clan makes great contributions to reshaping Buzhou Mountain, from now on, instead of preventing their resurrection, Heavenly Dao will take the initiative to help them to speed up their return."
"Even, even Buzhou Mountain will give birth to them again, allowing them to be reborn in Buzhou Mountain."
Jiang Chen would never do anything that would make his allies suffer, so before he came, he had already analyzed the pros and cons of this time.
After confirming that the reshaping of Buzhou Mountain would definitely bring more advantages than disadvantages to the Wu Clan, and would never let them suffer a loss, Jiang Chen dared to leave for the Reincarnation Palace.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even come today.
How could Jiang Chen do such a thing by reshaping the prehistoric world by himself, to get the greatest benefits, but to make his allies suffer?
Even if it was for himself, Jiang Chen would not dare to do such a thing.Doing so seems to be taking advantage of a lot, but there are some advantages that cannot be taken.How much it is now, will be doubled in the future.
These will turn into catastrophes on the road, so unless it is the enemy's advantage, don't take it, you have to pay it back, if you don't pay it back now, you will pay it back in the future.
Reincarnation of cause and effect, retribution is not good, this is a joke in the age of lawlessness.But in the era when Taoism manifests its holiness, it is a wise saying.Even if he is as strong as Pan Gu, he still cannot escape.
……
"Your Majesty's words are reasonable, but who can say what will happen in the future?"
"Heaven's protection is certainly useful, but whoever I'm waiting for doesn't have the power to defy the sky, and if I really want to destroy it with determination, it's useless even if I hide in Zixiao Palace."
"Putting everything on Tiandao is itself a way of death."
"So, reshaping Buzhou Mountain will return to reshaping Buzhou Mountain, but the previous agreement cannot be voided. After reshaping Buzhou Mountain, Your Majesty has to keep the promise and find a way to revive my brothers."
Empress Houtu didn't take Jiang Chen's words seriously. Since she was born, she has experienced too much, and she knows that nothing can be relied on, especially the way of heaven.The only thing a monk can rely on is himself.
As long as the protection of heaven is useful, Zuwu and Taiyi Dijun will not die, Hongyun will not fall, and the Eastern Prince will not die tragically in the East China Sea.
It's not that the protection of the Dao of Heaven is really useless, but that there are too many powerful people in Honghuang who have the power to defy the sky, so that the protection of the Dao of Heaven is useless.
If it is the strongest in the prehistoric world, only the realm of the innate dao venerable, the protection of that day dao will be useful, and it is guaranteed that no one can hurt him.But it's a pity that in today's prehistoric world, there are people with great supernatural powers everywhere, and there are almost hundreds of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxians.
Anyone who dares to act unscrupulously under the protection of the law of heaven will really die without knowing how to die.
Therefore, facing the big cake that Jiang Chen drew for her, Empress Houtu took it as a joke and didn't take it to heart at all.
It's not that what Jiang Chen said was unreasonable, what he said was actually quite reasonable. In theory, if no one stopped it, things should develop as he said.
Unfortunately, a theory is a theory after all, and whether it can be realized is another matter.
In reality, if Zu Wu really wanted to be resurrected, how could no one stop him?If you really want to pin your hopes on Tiandao, it is estimated that the prehistoric world will be destroyed, and the ancestor witch may not be able to resurrect.
The hope of resurrecting the ancestor witch was still on Jiang Chen after all.Therefore, Empress Houtu only needs to hold on to the previous agreement, hold on to Jiang Chen, and force him to resurrect the ancestor witch.
Heaven's guarantee is not as useful as Jiang Chen's guarantee.
"The reasoning is the same. If you don't believe in the way of heaven, you should consider the reshaping of Buzhou Mountain this time as one of my means of resurrecting the ancestor witch."
After thinking about it, Jiang Chen changed the term.
Using the power of resurrecting the ancestral witch to reshape Buzhou Mountain, it will undoubtedly be much easier to resurrect the ancestral witch after that.
Although a lot of power has been lost over this time, it has become easier to resurrect the ancestral witch. The power saved is much more than what was spent now. Overall, it is actually a profit.
Therefore, Jiang Chen's explanation made sense.
"It would be the best to take this opportunity to revive my brother. If not, it is important to revive Buzhou Mountain. Fortunately, when Buzhou Mountain collapsed, the rest of my brothers had already fallen."
"Otherwise, if they see that Mount Buzhou was destroyed by the Wu Clan, I really don't know if they can bear the blow."
"Before they are resurrected, it is actually a good thing to reshape Buzhou Mountain first."
The Twelve Ancestral Witches are connected with each other and understand each other's personalities very well.Empress Houtu certainly knew what the other brothers were thinking. Between reviving herself and reshaping Buzhou Mountain, they would definitely choose the latter.
If after they were resurrected, they knew that they could reshape Mount Buzhou only by sacrificing themselves, then they would definitely sacrifice themselves without hesitation.
Knowing the thoughts of the other ancestral witches, Empress Houtu made this decision.Otherwise, no matter how kind-hearted Empress Houtu is, she would not be able to make up her mind for the rest of the ancestral witches.
She can sacrifice herself, but she will not sacrifice others.
"Is there anything else you can do?"
Seeing that Jiang Chen had finished speaking and had no intention of leaving, it was not difficult for Empress Houtu to guess that he had other purposes for staying here.
"Reshaping Buzhou Mountain will inevitably attract Chaos Demon God's attack, so before that, I am going to try the level of Chaos Demon God, and accumulate some power to reshape Buzhou Mountain."
Jiang Chen stated his purpose, prepared for the Chaos Demon God for a while, and weighed their level.
"Are you going to the endless abyss?"
Queen Houtu asked.In the prehistoric world, the only place where the existence of the Chaos Demon God can be clearly confirmed is the endless abyss below the Netherworld.
Jiang Chen said here that he wanted to measure the Chaos Demon God, the purpose is self-evident, he must want to go to the endless abyss to have a look.
As usual, if Jiang Chen dared to make such a request, Empress Houtu would definitely refuse without hesitation.Because the endless abyss is the biggest secret and heritage of the Wu Clan, she is not even allowed to step into it, let alone Jiang Chen.
But at this moment, facing Jiang Chen's request, Empress Houtu hesitated for a moment and agreed.
Because she couldn't refuse, now, Jiang Chen is the de facto emperor of heaven, and the entire prehistoric world, including the endless abyss, is under his jurisdiction.
Jiang Chen could have gone directly without saying hello, but he didn't do so, but first asked Empress Houtu for permission.This is to give Empress Hou Tu face, and Empress Hou Tu can't know what is good or bad, and really refuse.
"Your Majesty, please follow me!"
Knowing that she couldn't stop Jiang Chen, Empress Houtu asked him and took him to the endless abyss.
"Thank you, Ma'am, for making it happen."
Jiang Chen thanked him, and followed Empress Houtu towards the back of the Hall of Reincarnation.
