Chapter 2188: Chapter 2187: Debate
Everyone was watching Su Han, waiting for him to speak.
There was still dark green blood on their clothes, the blood of the extraterrestrial demons.
It should have been dissipated with cultivation base, but they had not done so.
The blood had already dried up, losing its bloody odor, preserving over who knows how long.
They wanted to use this to remember their hatred towards the extraterrestrial demons!
Xiao Yuhui, Xiao Yuran, Yun Qianqian, and Nangong Yu sat on either side of Su Han.
Su Qing and Su Yao, after being baptized by such a long period of battle, had transformed from their somewhat immature faces to show a hint of maturity.
Actually, it could also be said to be fatigue.
Su Qing had never brought up Du Xi’s matter with Su Han again.
He knew that mentioning it was useless, for Su Han even with all his heart, had no power, could not possibly pass through so many extraterrestrial demons to enter the Divine Dream Sect.
And from the Divine Dream Sect, there was no more news.
Between him and Du Xi, separated by a middle-class planet region, yet it felt as though separated by a world.
Impossible to traverse.
...
After a long time, seeing everyone was in place, Su Han then spoke: "Elder Lian."
"At your service," Lian Yuze immediately stepped forward.
He was the Hell God King, also the Grand Elder of the Phoenix Sect, responsible for inside and outside affairs.
"How many Spirit Crystals does the Phoenix Sect have left in storage?" Su Han asked.
Lian Yuze pressed his lips together and whispered: "Less than a hundred million."
Hearing this, the originally silent hall became even more oppressive in atmosphere.
Less than a hundred million...
Phoenix Sect’s fifty million disciples, plus Heavenly Mountain Pavilion’s eight million, if distributed evenly, each person wouldn’t even get two Spirit Crystals.
"Alright."
Su Han nodded, glanced around, and said: "You all heard it as well, the consumption during this time has almost exhausted the Spirit Crystal reserves of the Phoenix Sect."
"Our sect knows, even if you have been given the Kunpeng Sacred Body and Blood Crystals, your aptitude still ultimately belongs to martial arts, belongs to magic, yet outside the extraterrestrial demons rampage, Spirit Crystals and Demon Crystal Stones are simply unobtainable."
"Therefore, our sect called you here today to discuss how to obtain these two things."
Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged glances, murmuring among themselves.
A moment later—
"Sect Master."
A middle-aged woman stood up, named ’Xue Yi,’ she was previously a Sect Master of a Subordinate Sect, later became part of the Phoenix Sect’s leadership.
"Speak," Su Han said.
"I believe we can exchange the Kunpeng Sacred Body for Spirit Crystals and Demon Crystal Stones."
Xue Yi said: "The lower-class Star Region is vast, with countless cultivators refining their physical bodies, not to mention those loose cultivators, just the forces I know exceed twenty, like the Giant Spirit Sect, Sect of the Divine Sun, Blood Spirit Sect among the Seventy-Two Sects, they all primarily cultivate the physical body."
"As being one of the Seventy-Two Sects, countless years of inheritance has left their reserves of Spirit Crystals essentially endless, piles of Demon Crystal Stones."
"But Spirit Crystals are not of much use to them, when they learn about the relationship between the Kunpeng Sacred Body and Blood Crystals, they will definitely gladly agree to exchange Spirit Crystals and Demon Crystal Stones."
"That’s indeed the case."
Another person stood up, a Golden Crystal God King of the Battle Clan, Xuanyuan Shengyi.
He clasped his hands and said: "Sect Master, Elder Xue is correct, in such a grand situation, their desire to enhance the physical body is extremely strong, and their disciples when recruited, prioritize physical aptitude, clearly they care more about physical enhancement."
"As long as we spread the word, even if those sects don’t believe, they will definitely give it a try."
Su Han nodded slightly, remained silent for a moment, then looked at the others: "What about you? Anyone with a different opinion?"
"Sect Master."
Ling Xiao stood up: "I feel that exchanging the Kunpeng Sacred Body is indeed a viable method, but everyone knows how strong the Kunpeng Sacred Body is, if everyone in the lower-class Star Region cultivates it, then for our Phoenix Sect... it won’t be a good omen!"
"I agree with God Slaying King’s viewpoint."
Shen Li stood up and said gravely: "Although there are many extraterrestrial demons, humanity’s disadvantage now, they will eventually be completely slain one day. With Wang Fuxing being hope for Phoenix Sect, it’s very likely to rise to the peak from this disaster! But if the Kunpeng Sacred Body is spread, it will be detrimental to Phoenix Sect’s future and the value of Blood Crystals will soar as well."
"As for sects like Three Teachings, Nine Schools, Seventy-Two Sects, they have been passed down for too long, with deep roots we cannot match."
"At this moment, Phoenix Sect should look for our advantage amidst the weaknesses of all forces, and the Kunpeng Sacred Body obviously is such an advantage!"
"Although others cultivating physical bodies experience slow initial enhancement, it’s merely a matter of time, with the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son, coupled with the Kunpeng Sacred Body and Blood Crystals, even without using Spirit Crystals, Phoenix Sect will still be strong in the future!"
Su Han nodded again, remained silent.
"I disagree with God Slaying King and Purple Demon Spirit Emperor."
Shangguan Mingxin stood up, first glancing at Ling Xiao and Shen Li, before saying: "I want to ask both of you, why did our Phoenix Sect disciples who died defend to the death instead of directly fleeing? Was it because they had nowhere to escape? Or because they were compelled by orders to defend?"
"No, not at all!"
"It was because of faith, because they wanted to protect Phoenix Sect, even the faith to defend the whole lower-class Star Region!"
"Now with extraterrestrial demons rampant, humanity’s grand trend temporarily gone, entirely suppressed, if other sects have no good method of defense, sooner or later they will be swept clean by extraterrestrial demons, then by relying on just Phoenix Sect, by relying on us fifty million people, can we wipe out all extraterrestrial demons?"
"That’s simply dreaming!"
"Kunpeng Sacred Body is indeed precious, we indeed need to consider future Phoenix Sect, but relatively speaking, if it could be inherited by those sects, it would make them strong, thereby slaying more extraterrestrial demons!"
"If other sects are annihilated, where does future Phoenix Sect come from?"
"Your two statements are purely selfish, considering only yourselves and not the bigger picture!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao and Shen Li both widened their eyes but couldn’t make a sound.
For Shangguan Mingxin’s words were spot-on, relying only on Phoenix Sect, no matter how strong the Kunpeng Sacred Body, there has to be a ’future.’
Given the current situation, perhaps no need to wait for ’future,’ the lower-class Star Region could be completely overrun.
