The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1581: Chapter 1581: Eight Slots

Luo Jiuhong was truly anxious.

Within the Six Great Clans, the Spirit Monster Clan was relatively weak. Even before their decline, the Human Clan far exceeded the Spirit Monster Clan in strength. Now, the Spirit Monster Clan finally had a chance to make a comeback, yet such an unacceptable change suddenly occurred.

It should be understood that if the Chaos Secret Realm opens this time and the Spirit Monster Clan fails to get a quota, the same could happen next time and the time after that, possibly even being replaced by some stronger middle-class clans.

This concerns the future of the entire clan, so Luo Jiuhong naturally couldn’t remain calm.

If it weren’t for the significance of the matter, with the character of the Spirit Monster Clan, they certainly wouldn’t dare to stand out—they were accustomed to being cowards.

Luo Jiuhong accused Jing Yan of being tyrannical, relying on the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix.

However, he didn’t consider his previous hostile attitude towards Jing Yan and the Human Clan. If it weren’t for his excessive behavior, how could Jing Yan treat the Spirit Monster Clan with such an attitude now?

That Spirit Monster Clan member, Jiao Getu, even volunteered to slay Jing Yan. If Jing Yan weren’t strong enough, he would have already been killed by Jiao Getu.

The predicament of the Spirit Monster Clan was entirely self-inflicted!

”Tyrannical?”

”So what if Brother Yan is tyrannical? The Spirit Monster Clan? A bunch of hideous creatures!” The Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix shifted its gaze, looking sideways at Luo Jiuhong.

Clearly, in the eyes of the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix, the Spirit Monster Clan was insignificant.

Indeed, in the vast Chaotic Universe, there are very few affairs and beings that demand the attention of top-tier Initial Creatures.

If not for the connection to Jing Yan, the Human Clan might also be seen as expendable in the eyes of the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix.

”Lord Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix, you... you...” Luo Jiuhong’s face alternated between red and white.

”What do you want to say? Utter another word of nonsense, and I’ll kill you first!” The Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix snapped coldly.

Luo Jiuhong fell silent!

”Ao Tian!” The Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix then turned to Chief Chairman Ao Tian and said, ”Did you hear? Brother Yan says that the Spirit Monster Clan shouldn’t get a quota into the Chaos Secret Realm.”

”Yes! The Spirit Monster Clan should not receive a fixed quota.” Ao Tian responded immediately.

”Babie, what do you think?” Ao Tian looked at Second Chair Babie.

”This...” Babie hesitated, glanced at Luo Jiuhong, and then said with flickering eyelids, ”I agree.”

There was no choice but to agree.

Who would dare oppose one of the most powerful Initial Creatures, the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix? Even though Babie was close to being Supreme, he was not there yet. Even if he reached the level of Chaos Supreme, he couldn’t compare to the level of the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix.

”Ao Tian, let your council redistribute the fixed quotas for the Chaos Secret Realm!” The Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix instructed Ao Tian again.

”Yes!” Ao Tian replied.

The new distribution plan came out quickly.

”Ancestor Lord, our council’s distribution of quotas for entering the Chaos Secret Realm this time is as follows!”

”The Beast Clan gets eight quotas, the Human Clan will receive seven, the Yin Yang Clan gets six, the Earth Clan five, the Netherworld Clan four, and the Spirit Monster Clan none.” Ao Tian reported respectfully to the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix.

The Human Clan’s quotas were increased directly from one to seven. The Yin Yang Clan’s quotas were reduced from seven to six. The quotas for the Earth Clan and the Netherworld Clan remained unchanged. As for the Spirit Monster Clan, it was pitiful.

Upon hearing that the Human Clan would receive seven quotas for the Chaos Secret Realm, Chunyu Venerable and others were so excited that their breath became heavier. They thought that, due to the relationship between Jing Yan and the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix, getting four or five quotas for the Human Clan was possible. They didn’t expect the Human Clan to directly receive seven fixed quotas.

This number exceeded their expectations.

This time, the Divine Emperor strong people from the Human Clan, including Jing Yan, numbered only nine. Now, with seven quotas, it meant that only two people ultimately couldn’t enter the Chaos Secret Realm.

Chunyu Venerable and the others were naturally very happy.

”Brother Yan, how do you find this distribution plan? Is the Human Clan’s quota sufficient?” The Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix didn’t ask Ao Tian whether the new plan was okay but instead sought Jing Yan’s opinion.

”The Human Clan receiving seven quotas is already quite a lot. However, the Yin Yang Clan has six quotas—isn’t that a bit too much?” Jing Yan pondered and said.

Jing Yan hadn’t forgotten that Second Chair Babie had wanted to kill him earlier, and the Yin Yang Clan wasn’t much better than the Spirit Monster Clan. Therefore, Jing Yan was reluctant to let the Yin Yang Clan have six quotas.

”Young friend Jing Yan!”

”Hehe, regarding what happened earlier, it was indeed my recklessness. Here, I apologize to young friend Jing Yan.” Before the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix could speak, Babie, hearing Jing Yan’s words, immediately put on a broad smile and apologized to Jing Yan.

Jing Yan furrowed his brows, his thoughts subtly shifting.

The strength of the Yin Yang Clan was indeed formidable. Within this clan, the number of strong people equivalent to the Heavenly Venerate Level in humans was over a hundred. Even before the Human Clan’s decline, they couldn’t compare to the Yin Yang Clan.

And now, Second Chair Babie was showing tact, apologizing before the powerful figures of the hundred clans, forcing Jing Yan to reconsider.

Jing Yan could ignore threats from the Yin Yang Clan, but he had to consider the entire Human Clan. Being completely opposed to the Yin Yang Clan was clearly not in the Human Clan’s best interest.

”Xiao Feng, let’s go with this!” Jing Yan eventually agreed to the distribution plan.

”Hmm!”

”Ao Tian, let the fixed quotas be distributed like this! Whatever follows should proceed as planned.” The Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix nodded slightly at Jing Yan and then looked at Ao Tian.

What followed was the lot drawing for the floating quotas. Hundreds of clans would draw lots one by one, and whether they could secure a quota in the Chaos Secret Realm depended entirely on luck, a one-in-five chance.

The Six Great Clans were also participating in the drawing.

This time, the Human Clan’s luck was exceptionally good. With a one-in-five chance, the Human Clan successfully drew a floating quota.

With one floating quota and seven fixed quotas, they had eight quotas. Among the nine Divine Emperors, only one couldn’t enter the Chaos Secret Realm to cultivate.

Other than the Human Clan, none of the other major clans drew a floating quota. This meant, ultimately, the Human Clan and the Beast Clan both secured eight quotas to enter the Chaos Secret Realm.

The Spirit Monster Clan was indeed miserable. They had no fixed quotas and didn’t draw a floating one. The group of Spirit Monsters was as disconsolate as if they had lost a parent, yet there was nothing they could do.

”Everyone!”

”According to our judgment, the Chaos Secret Realm is likely to open soon and could happen at any moment. So, it’s best for everyone to stay at Sky Creation City Square and wait for the Chaos Secret Realm to open, avoiding missing the entrance time.” Ao Tian’s gaze swept the audience as he spoke.
