Dragon's Origin
#1332 - If You Don't Lift It, Someone Will (Part 1)
The negotiations between the major principalities—Wang Sheng, the old Taoist, and Mei'er—certainly wouldn't know the details. But one thing was very clear: there had been no more outbreaks of super demon beasts in the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land, and the various parties had not attacked each other.
For the time being, no one dared to easily enter the Xia family's excavation site. Who knew if Wang Sheng was inside? If they encountered him, the outcome would be hard to predict. At this time, no one would think of provoking Wang Sheng. Although Wang Sheng had revealed the card that staying for a long time would cause a strange disease, who knew if Wang Sheng had any other trump cards in here?
Even if there were no other trump cards, the fact that Wang Sheng could control the huge demon beasts in the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land was enough to make many people feel apprehensive. No need for many, just a few of those giant bears and tigers would probably cost each family more than half of their expert casualties. Provoking Wang Sheng for no reason would probably bring about a catastrophe. Who would create trouble for no reason?
There was a very strange situation that no one noticed. That was, apart from the Xia family's excavation site, the Song family's excavation site was also completely empty. There wasn't a single person there. If someone entered the Song family's excavation site, they would find that not only was there no one, but the scale of excavation was much smaller than that of the other families.
If you really want to calculate, the Song family actually just built a two-story ice house here, and then dug a set of very comfortable houses for everyone in the not-so-deep area below, where they could practice quietly without being disturbed.
As for excavating the secrets of the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land, it seemed that the Song family had no intention of doing so at all. They sent experts in to cultivate using the aura of the inner circle of the Thousand Absolutes Land.
Even when the families jointly dealt with the Shi family, although the Song family contributed, they did not exert their full strength. They were not at the forefront of the charge, which led to the loss of manpower being basically from other families, while the Song family's experts only had a few injuries. Moreover, they all looked serious on the surface, but a few pills and ten days would be enough to solve the light injuries. Their overall strength remained at its peak.
All of this stemmed from a word Wang Sheng said to Song Yan back then, which was to tell her not to rush. Song Yan was so smart. If Wang Sheng said that, and she still filled people in, then she wouldn't be Song Yan.
Not only that, but all the people Song Yan sent in were her confidants, who were preparing to leave at any time besides practicing. The current situation was clearly at that point.
Although the families were negotiating, who knew if any family would be dissatisfied with the conditions and do something to the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land? Since the Xia family and Shi family had set that bad precedent, each family actually had a handle to hold against the other families. Any family that was dissatisfied had the ability to overturn the table.
Now that's good, all parties have the strength to overturn the table. This negotiation is destined to be difficult beyond imagination. The demands of the eight great families are definitely different. They have some wrangling.
"When are we going to do it?" The old Taoist and Wang Sheng were in the Thousand Absolutes Land, feeling the various auras around them, while asking Wang Sheng.
The two were still in the ice house under the Great Snow Ice Mountain, with enough living supplies, slowly cooking seafood porridge and enjoying it. The old Taoist also fiddled with the seemingly ordinary long sword from time to time, seemingly wondering why a peerless master would use such an ordinary weapon.
"Wait until someone else makes a move." Wang Sheng smiled and didn't say much, believing that the old Taoist could understand the meaning.
If the aura of a peerless master is really released, I am afraid that all the super demon beasts in the entire Thousand Absolutes Land will be stimulated to erupt. The previous outbreaks of super demon beasts have already caused small-scale earthquakes in the glacier basin. If all the demon beasts are unsealed, what may be faced is not only earthquakes, but even all the formations that bind super demon beasts may become ineffective.
Wang Sheng counted that there were ninety-nine and eighty-one super demon beasts sealed in the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land. The shape of the sealed formations could not be determined whether it was a large formation or not. Wang Sheng was not a formation expert, and neither was the old Taoist. Neither of them could determine whether this was a chain formation.
In fact, not only Wang Sheng and the old Taoist, but the people all over the world who bought the map of the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land frowned at the distribution of these formations, and couldn't see what was going on at all. The major families were not short of formation masters, but they didn't figure out what the relationship was between this distribution.
From the earliest unsealing to the recent consecutive ones, a total of twenty-five super demon beasts have been unsealed. It is believed that more cannot be unsealed, otherwise it will definitely cause a greater earthquake. Everyone guessed that if it exceeds half, it may trigger a chain reaction.
No family can bear the consequences, but every family can implement it. The headache for all parties is here. If it is really impossible to balance the relationship between all parties, I am afraid that the next thing will be extremely troublesome.
"Then when will we have to wait?" The old Taoist has always been dismissive of such intrigue and is not interested in understanding it, so he directly asked Wang Sheng.
"Actually, it will be soon." Wang Sheng smiled. The old Taoist just can't stand super masters, and even the aura of super masters, he can't help but want to see it sooner.
"Didn't you say that they will have to balance for a long time?" The old Taoist asked in confusion: "Could it be that someone will take action before they have reached an agreement?"
"They had to drag the Shi family down even though the Shi family was half a year early. Can they tolerate other families excavating inside for a long time?" Wang Sheng directly shook his head. It would be a miracle if the eight great families could have consistent interests. Unless a behemoth like the Lin family appears and everyone feels insecure, it is possible to fight against the enemy together, but even so, they are still harboring ulterior motives.
"Can't they dig while talking?" Of course, the old Taoist understood this principle, but he still felt that it was unlikely that the eight great families would destroy their own foundations. It would be better for everyone to dig while talking than to sit together and argue, right?

"Those who bought the map of the core area of the Thousand Absolutes Land are not just the royal family and the eight great families." Wang Sheng did not refute the old Taoist, but listed another reason: "Those small sects and small families who bought the map don't even have the qualifications to come in and take a look, will they be happy?"
As soon as he talked about these, the old Taoist immediately understood. Even if the interests of the eight great families are consistent, they can't stand someone wanting to squeeze in. In this world, people actually can't see the benefits. For the sake of benefits, let alone unsealing all the super demon beasts, even if the entire Thousand Absolutes Land is uprooted, so what?
