Chapter 486 - 204: Hidden Motives and the Scramble for the Ancient Origin Fruit
"Boss, they’re coming down. Should we take them down?"
Shimmering Gold asked Yi Tian, but he took a half-step back as he spoke.
"Let’s wait and see!" Yi Tian shook his head slightly.
He could see that this team of Late-stage A-level was not ordinary, each a bit stronger than the Late-stage A-level he had encountered before, with some capabilities.
"Fatty, what are you here for?"
The Divine Race man, holding the Celestial Dao Stone, approached within 200 meters of Yi Tian and Shimmering Gold, looking down from above.
"To see if you took the Ancient Origin Fruit!"
Shimmering Gold said this, but his eyes revealed: Even the Divine Race is nothing special, and they haven’t gotten the Celestial Dao Stone yet.
"We’re discussing! We’re short on manpower, and now that you’re here, we can collaborate. There have been many misunderstandings before; I hope to clear them with you." The Divine Race man didn’t mind Shimmering Gold’s words and calmly invited Yi Tian and Shimmering Gold.
"Okay! We can cooperate, but what do I get after the cooperation?" Shimmering Gold was about to say more, but Yi Tian stopped him and asked the Divine Race man instead.
Shimmering Gold was very angry: They even snatched my Blood Core, and even my underwear, and you say it’s a misunderstanding?
If I get the chance in the future, I’ll beat them one by one.
"Haha! That’s a good question, brother. As long as we get the Ancient Origin Fruit, we can give each of you one." The Divine Race man laughed and opened his right arm, speaking to Yi Tian.
"I’m not much help. How can I assist you?" Yi Tian spoke cautiously.
Yi Tian understood in his heart that these Lords considered him and Fatty easy targets.
Two Ancient Origin Fruits?
No one is so kind!
You have ten Lords, and even if you divide them, there will be one short.
"Of course, we won’t let you fight the Crowned Horror Birds. Our ten Lords will hold them off while you seize the opportunity to pick the Ancient Origin Fruit!"
The Divine Race man explained the plan to Yi Tian.
"If that’s the case, aren’t you afraid we’ll grab the Ancient Origin Fruit and teleport away?"
Yi Tian asked the Divine Race man back.
"Of course not! I trust you." The Divine Race man smiled.
"Wait a moment, let us think about it." Yi Tian didn’t immediately agree but circled back.
"Sure! We come with sincerity. Below is a mid-stage S-level Crowned Horror Bird and ten early-stage S-level Crowned Horror Birds. It’s tough for us to kill them, we can only hold them off. Better to resolve enmity rather than create it; I want to be friends with you!" The Divine Race man said with a generous tone, filled with emotion and sincerity.
Yi Tian pulled Shimmering Gold aside, still holding the Celestial Dao Stone, and watched the Divine Race man warily.
"Boss, this Divine Race hides a knife behind their smiles. They’re clearly up to no good, with ulterior motives." Shimmering Gold finally spat out after holding it in for a long time.
"I know! They want to ambush us or trap us. We’ll turn their scheme against them. Go along with them, look for a chance to take them down." Yi Tian told Shimmering Gold.
"I know this Divine Race man. From the divine talisman on his forehead, he’s from the Celestial Destiny Divine Race, one of the strongest races in all heavens and myriads of worlds. Being so young and suddenly reaching Late-stage A-level, he should belong to the fifth tier, maybe even the fourth tier of geniuses in the Divine Race. There are other two from the Divine Race, two from the Celestial Race, three from the Five Elements Spirit Race, one from the Holy Ghost Race, and one from the Nether Race."
Shimmering Gold truly knew the identity of this group, which is why he didn’t dare to rebel initially.
Ordinary advanced races or middle races reaching Late-stage A-level wouldn’t intimidate Shimmering Gold.
But prefixing Late-stage A-level with Divine Race, Celestial Race, was enough for Shimmering Gold to back down.
Even if these top-level race combat powers aren’t necessarily stronger than middle races’ Unparalleled Celestial Prides.
Yi Tian is from the Human Race, which is a middle race.
Not just the Human Race, but also Qian Race, Ba Race, Qin Race, Red Race, Li Race, and other intermediate races, all have legends of becoming gods.
"The Divine Race also has living creatures that aren’t very talented. It’s said that this month many top-level races’ celestial prides and advanced races’ unparalleled celestial prides have begun to break through to S-level one after another. They haven’t even reached S-level, still lacking. In ordinary Lords’ eyes, they’re celestial prides. Within their own race, maybe not."
"They don’t know I rank second in the world, hence they underestimate me, which gives me an unexpected advantage. I can achieve unforeseen results." Yi Tian said calmly.
From Purple Phoenix Moon Dance, Yi Tian had some understanding of top-level races.
The Divine Race is strong, for they have many Divine Spirits, with powerful bloodlines from their ancestors passed down for millions of years, though thinned out now.
To awaken ancestral bloodline is to stand above tens of thousands of others.
Thus, the youth of the Divine Race, the strong are truly strong. Not only have they awakened a divine-level talent but are also nurtured by various clans’ Divine Race, mastering countless Divine-level Martial Skills. Their constitution is tempered repeatedly with Divine Medicine, with unbelievably solid foundations.
The weak are truly weak and have no standing in the Divine Race.
Just like Purple Phoenix Moon Dance’s race, most tribe members have diluted Phoenix bloodline, nearly none.
They can’t even practice the Phoenix Race’s martial skills, let alone transform into a phoenix to soar the nine heavens.
"The boss speaks with reason. So, the enemy is clear and we’re in the dark. We’ll surely catch them off guard." Shimmering Gold smiled broadly.
In Shimmering Gold’s view, the Divine Race ranking fifth tier, certainly means the world second is in the first tier.
...
While Yi Tian and Shimmering Gold were discussing, the ten Lords also gathered together.
"That fat guy’s smile is so wily, there must be some sinister plot!" said an Earth Spirit Race man to everyone.
"In the face of absolute power, everything is pale. We must give them time to think they can do it." The Divine Race man was dismissive.
