The Master of Beasts

Chapter 869 290:

"Senior Bai Li, I've already given you enough face!"

Of course, the White Tiger Clan is not limited to just these people; from top to bottom, including Bai Li himself, they were all engaged in corruption. However, out of courtesy to Bai Li, Chen Jiuge still left a portion behind to avoid excessive awkwardness.

Feng Cang signed his name on the list without saying a word.

From the beginning, Feng Cang had been reluctant, but unable to resist Bai Li's instigation, he anticipated this outcome long ago.

Shuibing also looked indifferent; these subordinates were part of her test, and with so many underlings, losing a small portion was merely a drop in the bucket.

"Hoo hoo hoo"

The continuous sound of fan-like breathing resounded, and Bai Li finally signed his name.

What other choice was there? Shuibing and Feng Cang had already agreed, while Jialouluo and Meng Ze clearly opted out of this murky affair.

If to blame, it was for his lack of patience, unable to endure for even ten years!

"I agree!"

"Good!"

Chen Jiuge chuckled, collected the list, and handed it to Xiao Hong behind him, then tossed out a string of pearls and said, "These are the opportunities I've gained outside, most of which I absorbed myself, but there's still some left over, consider these gifts to all of you!"

"Innate Primordial Qi!"

Shuibing looked at Chen Jiuge with surprise; even for a Daluo, Innate Primordial Qi was very important, especially for someone like Shuibing whose cultivation was not yet profound!

"Thank you!"

The name of Innate Primordial Qi was known to everyone present.

After expressing their thanks, everyone departed.

However, as Feng Cang and Bai Li thanked him and left, Chen Jiuge received two transmissions in his mind.

Feng Cang conveyed that he was influenced by Bai Li, not acting intentionally.

Interestingly, Bai Li transmitted that his idea to test Chen Jiuge's life and death was influenced by Shuibing.

"Interesting, after stability, internal strife begins, huh?"

"However, we're far from true stability right now!"

.......

According to the information from Xiao Hong, the Logistics Realm I left before has already become a bit unsustainable.

"Is the appetite of the Four Seasons Tribe really that big?"

Chen Jiuge had a suspicion in his mind, but this speculation wasn't good news for the Star Moon Tribe.

"There's still half a month until the next visit from the Four Seasons Tribe, it's not urgent; let's first deal with the nine people in the Nine Yang Land!"

Having taken ten years to evolve to the extreme of Golden Immortal, attempting to break through to Daluo without external aid would require at least a hundred years, and that's normal.

A hundred years is too long, and Chen Jiuge can't wait that long.

Returning to the Nine Yang Land, looking at the nine people within the Nine Yang Heart, a large amount of Innate Primordial Qi appeared in Chen Jiuge's palm, and he showed a hint of anticipation: "Don't disappoint me!"

The Innate Primordial Qi obtained from Flower Spirit was quite abundant, yet using it to stabilize the cultivation for the nine was still somewhat insufficient.

Clusters of Innate Primordial Qi hovered around the nine individuals, being continually absorbed, while Chen Jiuge kept replenishing from the side.

"The absorption rate is truly fast, it seems using the Nine Yang Heart to boost cultivation quickens the pace, but the foundation remains somewhat unstable."

"Indeed, any Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure requires one's own digestion and consolidation; external force is still external force."

"Though in this case, the amount of Innate Primordial Qi might not suffice."

As time ticked by, Chen Jiuge's concerns did not materialize.

"Quite a lot left?" Chen Jiuge frowned slightly as he looked at the remaining Innate Primordial Qi gathered in his palm.

Having leftovers doesn't necessarily mean a good thing; rather, it indirectly confirms that the potential or power after breaking through to Daluo of the nine wasn't as high as Chen Jiuge had imagined!

"Forget it, they're merely the Children of Destiny from a small world; even though they've received considerable gifts in the Chaos World, their foundation remains too shallow."

"Calculating the time, the people from the Four Seasons Tribe should be arriving soon; best to leave for now!"

With the help of this Innate Primordial Qi, the time for the nine to break through greatly advanced.

City Lord Mansion

Those coming from the Four Seasons Tribe weren't Di Chun; as the Clan Leader, Di Chun occasionally venturing out is normal, given the possibility of growing restive even for Great Cultivators staying in one place indefinitely.

"Old man He Cong, at your service, greetings to Chen Clan Leader."

"He Cong?" Chen Jiuge felt a stir in his heart; though this name seemed subdued, it sounded more normal compared to those earlier indigenous names he heard.

"Seeing other cultivators entering, although most True Realm cultivators didn't fare well, there are always some fortunate ones."

"And the Body Cultivators, at this locale, despite their decline in the True Realm, occupy advantageous positions."

As thoughts spiraled through his mind, Chen Jiuge slightly nodded and unfolded the exchange list handed over by He Cong.

"So much?"

Looking at the quantity of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures on the list, Chen Jiuge furrowed his brow: "I remember the Four Seasons Tribe numbering not more than tens of thousands; this food could feed a million people for a year!"

"Clan Leader Chen, our Four Seasons Tribe exceeds tens of thousands!"

He Cong chuckled and said, "Thanks to Clan Leader Chen's Star Moon Tribe, our total populace in the Four Seasons Tribe now exceeds a million."

"A million?"

Chen Jiuge felt a moment of private surprise, not anticipating the Four Seasons Tribe's development so swiftly over ten years!

Casually pressing his seal, Chen Jiuge blandly said, "Xiao Hong, escort Mr. He Cong to Logistics."

"Yes!"

"Thank you, Clan Leader Chen!"

"A million?"

Chen Jiuge's lips curled into a hint of derision: "That supposed million likely includes slaves!"

Di Chun hails from the Three Lives Tribe, whose reputation throughout the Sunset Mountain Range isn't good, particularly in the eyes of fringe settlements and small tribes, where the Three Lives Tribe comes off as a greedy boar.

This reveals Di Chun's Four Seasons Tribe to be exceedingly avaricious as well.

According to the intelligence from Xiao Hong, after the Four Seasons Tribe exchanged copious food from the Star Moon Tribe, they began to annex surrounding small settlements, continually expanding.

This is quite normal, but the abnormal part is that the core framework of the Four Seasons Tribe comprises individuals who were once slaves. They're not inclined to treat others well, instead intensifying their oppressing of people from those small settlements.

Claiming these as parts of the Four Seasons Tribe, in reality, they're more akin to captured slaves!

For that million's worth of food over a year, it's doubtful any falls into the mouths of the slaves, especially since the Four Seasons Tribe visits the Star Moon Tribe twice a year!

"It seems Di Chun has engaged with forces supported by other Ghost Fighting Tribes, and these Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures exchanged for food likely originate from those tribes!"

Though he'd already deduced this possibility, Chen Jiuge doesn't intend to expose it because the Star Moon Tribe still needs time to grow.

"However, the unsustainable situation is indeed a fact; perhaps I should think of a way to reintroduce the Chaos Pearl."

In the Heavenly Gift Realm, the suppression on Immortal Dao is quite potent, so much so that even a Supreme Treasure like the Chaos Pearl must obscure its presence under the Dao's suppression, minimizing interaction with Chen Jiuge to avoid detection.

"This matter isn't easy; first, I'll aim to communicate with the Chaos World to replenish the Logistics Realm's Spiritual Beast resources."

Within a secret chamber, Chen Jiuge produced a glowing orb in his palm, representing the Logistics Realm,

The surface of the obscured orb seemingly shimmered with countless figures, Chen Jiuge shut his eyes and through an ethereal connection, tried to practice with the Chaos Pearl.

After an indefinite time, his Divine Sense suddenly cleared, revealing a spherical world drifting in endless void before his eyes.

"So this is the Chaos Pearl's true form?"

"Master?" Chaos emerged from the world's membrane, looking surprised at Chen Jiuge's sudden arrival.

"Chaos?"

"I can't linger long. Send out a batch of Fierce Beast from the Chaos World!"

"Those without much Spiritual Wisdom, limited potential."

"Meat supply? Understood!"

While Chaos made preparations, Chen Jiuge's hands transformed continuously, extending a world bridge from outside, landing straight on the Chaos World's surface.

"They're coming!"

"Roar"

Amidst fierce beastful roars, uncountable massive silhouettes crossed the world bridge, landing in the Logistics Realm.

Chen Jiuge's mind wasn't focused on these.

"Let's hope it doesn't attract the notice of the Heavenly Gift Realm's Heavenly Dao!"

This was Chen Jiuge's primary concern.

After an uncertain duration, the world bridge remained teeming with beasts, an ominous aura pervading the void.

"Master, it's no good, the Heavenly Gift Realm's Heavenly Dao has noticed!"

"Then sever it!"

Despite the short time, insufficient to completely replenish the Logistics Realm, it restored to eighty percent, enough to last quite a while.

"Alright!"
