Chapter 591: Oasis Project!
"Contact with the Flying Stars? Bear Chief, you're playing with fire! β
With a "boom", Yan Zhengdong, the patriarch of the scorching sun, slammed the ebony table, leaving a clear fist mark in the hard ebony, Huo Ran got up and glared angrily at Xiong Wuji.
The Giant Axe Patriarch and the Feathered Serpent Patriarch beside him, as well as the clan elders of various tribes, also frowned deeply.
Behind them, sat the masters of the younger generation of the three major tribes, who had also been invited to participate in the deliberations because of their outstanding performance in the Battle of the Heavenly Tribulation.
These young generations don't have so many rules, some people are afraid of Xiong Wuji's bravery, and they only dare to take a round, but there are also some ruthless characters who don't hesitate, and they directly shouted in their throats: "Xiong Wuji is crazy!" β
This was a scene in the next afternoon, one of the six ministries of the alliance.
After Xiong Wuji proposed to contact the Flying Star People, he was met with fierce opposition from the Scorching Sun Tribe.
Even on Xiong Wuji's side, the three tribes of Crazy Bear, Silver Moon, and Sky Wolf, not all of them knew about this in advance.
Some of the young qi refiners had obviously heard about it for the first time, and they were all taken aback, and there was a "buzzing" sound in the crowd, as if 10,000 mosquitoes were flying around.
Li Yao made a feats second only to Xiong Wuji in the Battle of the Heavenly Tribulation, so he was qualified to sit at the front of the back row, and Xiong Wuji's face could be seen from the side.
Xiong Wuji's nerves were like steel forged repeatedly, and he had long expected strong opposition, but he was not moved in the slightest.
Patriarch Yan Zhengdong gritted his teeth and said, "Patriarch Xiong, what you call contact and trade with the Flying Star people is to leak all the secrets of our Tieyuan Star and let the Flying Star people know?" Disagree! We, the Scorching Sun Tribe, absolutely disagree! β
Xiong Wuji said in a deep voice: "Throughout the ages, there has never been a good result!" There is no one kind of supernatural power. Able to be blocked forever! Only through continuous communication, absorption, and evolution will the supernatural powers become more and more powerful! β
"Of course, we won't put all the core supernatural powers into people, but we want to exchange a lot of supernatural powers and resources from the flying stars! When the time comes, if Patriarch Yan feels that a certain transaction is not suitable, he can oppose it! β
Yan Zhengdong laughed: "The idea is very good. But who can guarantee that those flying stars have other purposes? Maybe they are scheming and have already set their sights on Tieyuan Star! β
Xiong Wuji said with a straight face: "That's why we have to make contact with each other to know what the Flying Star people are thinking and how far their cultivation level has developed!" As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is a hundred battles! We don't know anything about the Flying Star now, and if they are really malicious, we don't even know how to defend ourselves, then how can we do it! β
Yan Zheng is red-eared to the east. His neck was full of green tendons, and he shouted: "How about the flying stars, the old man doesn't know!" But how about the people of Tieyuan, the old man knows it clearly! If the Flying Star people really dare to do anything about Tieyuan Star, we will definitely let them die without a place to be buried! β
Xiong Wuji also raised his voice: "What do you use to make them die without a place to be buried?" Everyone knows the situation of the six divisions of Tieyuan, just to fight against the Heavenly Tribulation and Demon Beasts, almost all resources have been exhausted! β
"Just now, the wolf and the giant axe were two. Bullstaking for an hour, just for a vein with an annual output of 3,000 tons of purple mist stone! Three thousand tons! Put it three hundred years ago. It's just a vein that can't be smaller, and the elders of the two tribes can meet and have a drink to solve the problem, but now it has to be solved by the Six Ministries Alliance! Why? It's not because we have fewer and fewer resources! The resources buried in the shallow layers of the earth are about to be hollowed out! β
"I know. Many people are against contact with the Flying Star People, and everyone can't let go of the knot that squeezes five thousand years! However, resource depletion is the most real problem! Don't contact with the Flying Star and don't purchase more resources. In the next few decades, we people are old and dead, and the qi refiners sitting behind you and me will carry stone axes and wooden sticks to fight against the Heavenly Tribulation Beasts? β
"Patriarch Yan, you oppose my proposal, so let's talk about what plans you have for the problem of resource depletion!"
Yan Zhengdong sneered and said, "Of course there is a plan!" β
"Today, let me take the opportunity of the Six Ministries Alliance to introduce the 'Oasis Project' in front of all the tribes!"
"Project Oasis?"
The hall once again resounded with the sound of "buzzing" discussions, and many Qi Refiners of the Wild Bear Third Division looked at each other, and everyone was confused in their eyes.
The scorching sun is three, but there are many qi refiners with mysterious smiles on their faces, and they seem to have the chance to win.
Xiong Wuji's iron-like face showed a hint of astonishment for the first time, obviously even he had heard of the "Oasis Project" for the first time.
Li Yao straightened his waist and narrowed his eyes.
Yan Zhengdong cleared his throat and said, "As we all know, the land occupied by our Tieyuan Six Divisions is only a small part of the entire land on the Tieyuan Star, and most of the other lands are the 'Dark Continent' that was hit by the first wave of Heavenly Tribulation back then!" β
"In the Dark Continent, demon beasts are rampant, full of savages, and the frequency of the outbreak of the Heavenly Tribulation Egg is much higher than that of our area, but because the lifespan of the Heavenly Tribulation Beasts is generally not long, only a few days at most, so it has not been able to spread to the range of our Tieyuan Six Division."
"For thousands of years, we have sent countless expeditions to the Dark Continent, but we have never found any traces of civilization, and in the last few hundred years, we have completely abandoned the exploration of the Dark Continent because of lack of resources!"
"However, a year ago, our Scorching Sun Tribe received a signal from the Dark Continent!"
"What!"
This time, even Xiong Wuji's face changed.
The qi refiners of the three tribes behind him were even more in an uproar.
Yan Zhengdong looked at everyone's reaction coldly, his expression was even more proud, and said: "We, the Scorching Sun Tribe, organized a new expedition, followed the source of the signal, went deep into the Dark Continent, and finally found a brand new tribe in a valley!" β
Xiong Wuji was dumbfounded, and the discussion of everyone behind him became even more noisy, and many people stood up involuntarily.
Li Yao frowned and fell into deep thought.
Yan Zhengdong continued: "This tribe, calling itself the 'Oasis Tribe', their ancestors have struggled in the Dark Continent for thousands of years, and their living environment is even more sinister than ours, so a large number of inheritances have been lost, and the civilization is thousands of years behind us, except for a very small number of magical powers and magic weapons, it has almost become a real savage tribe. β
"However, we have found extremely rich ore veins in the area where the Oasis tribe is located, because it has not been mined on a large scale for thousands of years, and the resources here are enough for us to use for hundreds of years until we survive the difficulties and develop our own deep resource gathering technology!"
"Moreover, according to our communication with the inhabitants of the oasis tribes, we know that they are nomadic herders who have no fixed residence, and in the dozens of areas where they once lived, all of them have found exposed ore, and it is very likely that there are still a lot of resources that have not yet been explored!"
"In short, the Oasis tribe is the best guide in the Dark Continent, with them to guide the way, they will definitely be able to discover all the resources of the Dark Continent!"
"Therefore, we, the Scorching Sun Tribe, together with the Giant Axe Tribe and the Feathered Serpent Tribe, have launched the Oasis Project!"
"We are going to send a large-scale caravan to the Oasis Tribe, first to help the Oasis Tribe stabilize in the Dark Continent, and then use the Oasis Tribe as a base to exploit the resources of the Dark Continent on a large scale!"
"This is our way to solve the resource problem, I don't know what the Bear Patriarch thinks?"
Xiong Wuji was stunned for a long time and said: "The Dark Continent, the environment is complicated, this matter must be considered in the long run!" β
Yan Zhengdong smiled and said, "There is no need to think about it in the long run, before the battle of the Heavenly Tribulation, our three departments had already withdrawn a group of forces, formed the first caravan, and rushed to the Oasis Tribe." β
"What!"
Xiong Wuji was furious, Huo Ran got up, and said in a deep voice: "Patriarch Yan, such a big matter, why don't you wait for the Six Ministries Alliance, everyone decides together!" β
Yan Zhengdong sneered: "Who doesn't know that Patriarch Xiong, over the years, you have been confused by a woman from the starry sky, and you want to contact the flying star people?" β
"Those secret agreements that you reached in private in the Western Third Division don't seem to have been approved by our Eastern Third Division, right?"
"Anyway, now that the wood is complete, the first batch of caravans has penetrated deep into the Dark Continent, and it is impossible to gather them back!"
The "buzzing" sound in the main hall became louder, and the clan elders of the Wild Bear, Silver Moon, and Sky Wolf tribes all frowned deeply and pondered.
Xiong Wuji held back his anger and said, "I always feel that this matter is strange!" Our predecessors have searched the Dark Continent for thousands of years, but they have not found any trace of civilization, why is it that at this moment, a tribe has appeared strangely? β
"Patriarch Bearβ"
An old voice came from behind Yan Zhengdong, "The Oasis Project is under my full control, the first time I went to explore, I also followed it, and saw the existence of the Oasis tribe with my own eyes, as well as the surrounding ore veins, this matter is absolutely true, I guarantee with my life." β
"Teacher Yan!"
Xiong Wuji's arrogance dissipated instantly, and he said respectfully.
A slender figure slowly rose from behind Yan Zhengdong, but it was an old man in his last years, with white hair and skinny hair, his legs amputated at the knees, sitting in a special jet wheelchair, relying on his true qi to shoot out from below, allowing him to float freely.
This old man seems to have great prestige in the six tribes, and his appearance has silenced the Qi refiners of the three tribes, including Crazy Bear.
Li Yao was puzzled, stepped back slightly, and quietly asked Shi Meng behind him: "Who is this old man?" β
Shi Meng's expression was full of admiration, and he whispered: "He is the eldest brother of the Yan Zhengdong Patriarch of the Scorching Sun Tribe, Yan Xixi, and he is also the first warrior of the Tieyuan Six Divisions before our Bear Patriarch!" is also a peerless powerhouse who has cultivated to the ninety-nine levels of the Qi Refining Period! In a battle of the Heavenly Tribulation thirty years ago, he forcibly withstood the impact of dozens of dragon-level alien beasts, and then fought with the natural catastrophe-level alien beasts for 300 rounds, almost single-handedly, turning the tide! Yes, although he was seriously injured and his strength plummeted, he was still extremely prestigious among the six divisions of Tieyuan! β
Li Yao frowned: "Is it possible for him to lie?" (To be continued......)
