After finishing the experiment, Qin Sheng also set off to put pressure on Jiucheng.
The Imperial Gemstone is still hanging within the Chengtian Clan's territory, and mining has not yet begun. This is the best time to exert pressure.
As expected, Wang Xiaopang has completed his mission as a spy.
The new Lord of Hualong City has learned that the believers are unable to integrate with the primordial energy, and Zhao Limin should also know this news.
Now all they're thinking about is how to seize all the Imperial Gems for themselves.
After notifying a group of followers with earth-attribute characteristics, Qin Sheng returned to Zhenjiang City first.
"Master Qin, I've kept you waiting."
Zhao Limin greeted him with a smile, and Qin Sheng said leisurely, "Lord Zhao, you've come at the right time. I have something to discuss with you."
He glanced at it and said, "Where's Cheng Ao? We need him to be there for this."
"OK."
Zhao Limin nodded and led Qin Sheng into the meeting room. Soon after, Cheng Ao also arrived.
Seeing Cheng Ao nod in a gesture of approval, Qin Sheng's lips curled into a slight smile.
Although Cheng Ao did not show any abnormality, the respect in his eyes had disappeared, and he knew what the villain Qin had done.
For Cheng Ao, who lived in the Chengtian clan's territory and whose clan members were all simple-minded, Qin Sheng was already a bad person.
"Everyone, the effects of the primordial energy have already been felt in you. I also went back and tried it on my followers."
Qin Sheng, without blushing, said, "The effect is excellent. With the existence of the primordial energy, the space for human beings to survive in the wilderness will be greatly expanded. It is time to start mining the royal gems."
Their gazes fell on Cheng Ao, who nodded and said, "The Imperial Gemstone belongs to the royal family. Gentlemen, you can discuss it yourselves. I believe the clan leader will have no objections."
"That's good."
Qin Sheng joked, "After all, the Imperial Gemstones are all in the Chengtian Clan's territory, so we still have to be a little polite."
Zhao Limin smiled and said, "Master Qin is indeed a reasonable person."
As if oblivious to the veiled sarcasm in his words, Qin Sheng continued, "In that case, let's divide the shares of the Imperial Gemstones."
"As the discoverer, it should all belong to me, but..."
Qin Sheng looked at Cheng Ao: "Just as the Cheng Tian clan said, the Imperial Gem belongs to all mankind, but I'll take 50%, and the rest can be freely distributed among the eight cities, how about that?"
The proposal only elicited silence from Zhao Limin, who then shook his head: "Sect Leader Qin, the Creation Sect doesn't have many members. Even if we get 50% of the Imperial Gems, we won't have anywhere to use them. Meanwhile, the other eight cities want every martial artist to integrate the Origin Qi, which requires a considerable amount. 50% won't be enough."
"oh?"
Qin Sheng crossed his arms and asked quietly, "What is Lord Zhao's opinion?"
"How about this?"
"I have already briefly sent the effects of the Primal Qi to the other city lords. They are all very interested in the Imperial Gem and are willing to pay a lot of resources to exchange for a share of the Imperial Gem."
Zhao Limin said, "But our Zhenjiang City and other cities don't even have enough for themselves. How about Leader Qin gives up the share of the Creation Sect?"
"Of course, we will not let Master Qin and the Creation Cult suffer losses. We will use the remains of the alien beasts we have recently hunted for exchange, and even the remains of alien beasts from past natural disasters and calamity species can be used for exchange."
"I believe that compared to the Imperial Gem, Sect Leader Qin would be more interested in the remains of the alien beast."
Qin Sheng narrowed his eyes, looked Zhao Limin up and down, and suddenly laughed: "I didn't expect that Lord Zhao would also have a talent for being a businessman."
"You jest, Master Qin."
Zhao Limin remained calm. He wasn't good at negotiation, but when he learned that the believers couldn't integrate the primordial energy, someone had already given him some intensive training and devised various strategies for negotiation.
"impossible."
Qin Sheng's voice turned cold: "You all know the effects of the Origin Qi. You think you can get me to give up the Imperial Gem with some beast remains? You're dreaming."
Or perhaps…
Qin Sheng narrowed his eyes, and the atmosphere gradually became tense.
"Master Qin, please don't be angry." Zhao Limin quickly said, "We remember Master Qin's kindness in helping Zhenjiang City survive the beast tide. We will definitely not let Master Qin suffer any losses. Why don't you take a look at the catalog of the strange beast remains provided by each city?"
"Take it away."
The tablet quickly landed in Qin Sheng's hands. As he slid through it, he saw a long table. Each row recorded the name, realm, and body part of the beast, as well as whether it was a calamity species and whether it had reached an extreme realm.
As he swiped, Qin Sheng's gaze became slightly serious.
The catalogs provided by Flying Eagle City and Dragon Transformation City contained several exotic beasts whose names he had only seen in books. Their approximate strength and performance, as recorded in the catalogs, made him somewhat envious.
Among them was even the remains of a time-related beast. Although its cultivation level was very low, it was still genuinely related to time!
There are also five or six spatial-type alien beasts, and more than a dozen dragon beasts. These are all the resources that humans have accumulated since the alien beast invasion!
But now they're all being used to exchange for Imperial Gems!
Qin Sheng admitted that for a moment he really wanted to give the Imperial Gem to them!
But... no!
He wanted to use the issue of the distribution of the Imperial Gem to convey a message: those who absorb the primordial energy have the ability to fight against the believers.
If they really give up on the Imperial Gem, it will probably be a long time before the Eight Cities make a move against Creation City.
By then, there won't be a chance to spread primordial energy throughout the world and end the invasion of alien beasts.
I took a deep breath.
Zhao Limin noticed Qin Sheng's change in expression and breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin Sheng was tempted!
The primordial energy was useless to believers, and given Qin Sheng's interest, Zhao Limin felt that he had it all figured out.
For the Creation Cult and Qin Sheng, exchanging something useless to the believers for so many remains of strange beasts was clearly an excellent deal!
Taking a slow sip of tea, Zhao Limin felt much more relaxed, as he had already absorbed the primordial energy.
When he had just finished absorbing the energy, Zhao Limin wondered if he could exchange a few blows with Qin Sheng.
But that thought vanished completely when I saw the other person.
So what!
Having absorbed the primordial energy, the warnings originating from the human sixth sense became even more pronounced.
When Zhao Limin decided to take action, his entire being told him that this was a dead end!
He even activated his super brain, imagining and calculating countless possibilities, with the best outcome being that he wouldn't take action.
So he silently abandoned the idea and decided to let Elder Ren do it instead.
The demigod's realm is already higher than Qin Sheng's. Although he has also killed demigods before, if Elder Ren absorbs the primordial energy, his strength will definitely improve by leaps and bounds.
Perhaps there's a chance...
Zhao Limin looked out the window. It had been a long time since Qin Sheng went to spar with Elder Ren, which led to him being targeted by the Azure Dragon again.
I wonder when he'll finally get rid of that silly dragon.
