Chapter 241: Chapter 126 Propelling Forces from Cause and Effect_1
With Shen Yuan’s departure, the matter of the Cang Province Dao Conference was completely settled.
The various news from the conference quickly spread throughout the Great Xia, and even to other nations outside the Great Xia.
The impact of this conference, which included the grotto heavens and blessed land, was not just limited to one province or one county, and it far surpassed what had transpired previously in the Ghost Market, Qing Province Dongting Dragon Palace, and Yunfu Mountain Demon Territory.
After all, it involved one of the world’s oldest powers, the River Ji Dragon Palace, the joint ruler of the Aquatic Tribe.
This white-robed Divine Monarch, who had suppressed the River Ji Dragon Palace with his power alone, had taken the stage of the whole Primal Chaos Realm.
The failure of the River Ji Dragon Palace was a good thing for all top forces in the Primal Chaos Realm.
Very few forces could occupy the top spot in this realm, so the fall of the River Ji Dragon Palace meant there was one less force to divide the resources brought about by the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge.
And more forces could also see more opportunities from the failure of the River Ji Dragon Palace.
Of course, not all beings were happy to see the failure of the River Ji Dragon Palace.
In addition to the Four Waterways Dragon Palace, which is also an Aquatic Tribe, there was another force that did not want to see such a result.
By the River Ji, Bai Zhao looked at the bustling Primal Chaos Tower with hatred in his eyes.
In order to let Sunn Lanyu successfully cause trouble at the Dao Conference, Bai Zhao personally guided Sunn Lanyu to borrow the power of the River Ji Dragon Palace, trying to create a conflict between the River Ji Dragon Palace and the Great Xia’s Imperial Court.
However, after the Mingquan Turtle Minister was beheaded and Sunn Lanyu announced a complete failure, this was far beyond Bai Zhao’s expectations.
The River Ji Dragon Palace did not pose any threat to the Dao Conference and was unable to provoke a war between the River Ji Dragon Palace and the Great Xia. Bai Zhao could not harvest the propelling forces from cause and effect from it, which meant Bai Zhao’s plan had completely failed.
During the last time in Yunfu Mountains, Bai Zhao, in the name of a descendant of the Mythical Beast Bai Ze, gained the trust of the Cloud Floating Monster Tribe and the Yunfu Mountain Lord, trying to instigate the Yunfu Monster Tribe to besiege Yunfu Street and promote a war between the Yunfu Monster Territory and the Human Clan.
However, it was unexpectedly interrupted due to the appearance of the Divine Monarch and was unable to harvest sufficient propelling forces from cause and effect.
This time, the plot to harvest the propelling forces from cause and effect was declared a failure from the beginning.
Bai Zhao was not willing to accept this result, so he took the risk of covertly using the propelling forces from cause and effect to continue pushing the River Ji Dragon Palace to make a move.
He controlled several small demons to create the illusion of Sunn Lanyu’s accidental death, leading to the Dragon Palace Edict, and by leveraging the causal relationship with the existence of the River Ji Dragon Seal, he propelled the animosity between the River Ji Dragon Palace and the Dao Conference.
Under various guidances, the River Ji Dragon Sovereign, Ao Lang, ordered Giant Clam Water God to forcibly descend into the world to take action, with Ao Lang even assisting with his Sovereign authority.
Bai Zhao believed that his plot could be worry-free, but he never expected that the Divine Monarch who had disrupted his plan in Yunfu Mountains last time was the so-called Falling Clouds, and he also appeared at this Dao Conference.
With just a few simple actions, he beheaded the River Ji Dragon Sovereign’s authority, suppressed the entire River Ji Dragon Palace, and made Bai Zhao’s conspiracy completely unsuccessful.
The backlash of the propelling forces from cause and effect invested in the River Ji Dragon Palace brought severe backlash to Bai Zhao. Instead of allowing him to advance to the Spirit Refining Realm as he wished, Bai Zhao was severely injured and had to spend a lot of time recuperating.
The backlash of the propelling forces from cause and effect left Bai Zhao unable to incite a war between Great Xia and the Monster Tribe for some time, and he could no longer harvest from it.
It can be said that Shen Yuan’s action directly delayed Bai Zhao’s return to his peak stage by at least several months.
Every time he thought about this, Bai Zhao’s eyes were almost bursting with fury, and he even had the impulse to vent his anger towards the Primal Chaos Tower.
The threatening Divine Monarchs and Gong Buyu in that Primal Chaos Tower had already left, and the remaining Qi training prodigies were not even in his eyes.
As long as he suppressed them before they reacted, not giving them a chance to retaliate with the spirit essence in the spirit treasure.
The fierce color in Bai Zhao’s eyes became more intense, his deep thoughts kept fluctuating, and then an old voice slowly sounded in Bai Zhao’s ear.
“Why bother getting angry, sir?”
Bai Zhao’s expression remained unchanged, and he look glanced at the substantive heavy shadows at his side and said coldly.
“You want to stop me?”
“If sir chose to start before the Dao Conference, I would never stop him. Even if we have to annihilate them all, we just need to blame it on the River Ji Dragon Palace.
But now, that Divine Monarch has just suppressed the River Ji Dragon Palace, and at this moment, all the great grotto heavens blessed land and the Ancient Dao factions are focusing on this small Qingping County.
Sir rashly takes action, it is hard to ensure that no clues will be left behind.”
Bai Zhao remained unmoved, the old holy robe in the shadows paused, and then spoke slowly with a deep meaning.
“Moreover, sir has always acted cautiously, always plotting with an end goal in mind, and not swayed by personal feelings.
But now, sir is taking the risk of revealing himself due to a moment of anger.
Is this sir acting according to his heart, or has sir unknowingly fallen into the backlash of the propelling forces from cause and effect?”
At this statement, Bai Zhao’s pupils suddenly shrank, and his face could no longer maintain its previous indifference.
Right as the old sound from the shadows claimed, killing everyone in the Primal Chaos Tower would not bring him much benefit, instead, it would make him bear the risk of identity exposure.
If it were normal circumstances, he would never make such a choice.
“Propelling forces from cause and effect backlash!”
