Chapter 502: Striving for Benefits

Feeling the mid-stage Da Luo divine sense pressure from Yan Qingling, the faces of all the Da Luo from the Immortal Tribes immediately changed.

In an instant, countless questions surged in their minds.

“How is this possible? How can the Human Race have a mid-stage Da Luo powerhouse?”

“Could she really be someone who just broke through to the Da Luo Golden Immortal?”

At first, all the Da Luo from the Immortal Tribes thought that Yan Qingling was a hidden genius of the Human Race, perhaps someone who had just reached the Da Luo Golden Immortal level.

Such speculation was acceptable to all beings.

However, now that Yan Qingling was revealed to be mid-stage Da Luo, it went beyond the understanding of simply being a hidden talent.

Thus, many Da Luo from the Immortal Tribes were filled with confusion about Yan Qingling’s existence.

If they could explain the early-stage Da Luo as recent breakthroughs, mid-stage Da Luo clearly indicated that she had long surpassed that level.

Under normal circumstances, without tens of millions or even billions of years of accumulation, it would be nearly impossible to progress from early-stage Da Luo to mid-stage Da Luo.

At least, this was what all beings in the Kunlun Realm believed.

Because every being in the Kunlun Realm had come up through such a gradual process.

Since it was impossible to achieve mid-stage Da Luo in one leap, Yan Qingling’s existence became very difficult to comprehend.

If Yan Qingling had been a Da Luo being for a long time, why did she only appear now? If she had emerged sooner, the Human Race could have ranked among the top in the Immortal Tribes.

Additionally, where had Yan Qingling been hiding before her appearance?

No one considered that Yan Qingling had suddenly broken through to mid-stage Da Luo, as this contradicted their common knowledge.

Nor did anyone think that Yan Qingling came from outside the Kunlun Realm, as this also contradicted their beliefs; they thought there could be no Da Luo Golden Immortal outside the Kunlun Realm.

Thus, the sudden appearance of Yan Qingling left many Da Luo from the Immortal Tribes confused.

However, Yan Qingling paid no mind to the Da Luo’s doubts.

She lightly addressed everyone, saying, “We need to reclaim the interests of the Human Race. Additionally, as a mid-stage Da Luo cultivator, I must strive for the same treatment as the Dragon and Phoenix Tribes…”

“That’s impossible.”

Just as Yan Qingling was speaking, she was directly interrupted by the Dragon Tribe Da Luo.

“The reason the Dragon and Phoenix Tribes enjoy our current treatment is that we have made significant contributions to the entire Immortal Tribes. Without my friend Yuan Shan from the Wind Tribe and me, the demon tribe would have already conquered the entire Kunlun Realm,” the Dragon Tribe Da Luo said to Yan Qingling.

Hearing the Dragon Tribe Da Luo’s words, Yan Qingling calmly replied, “I do not deny that the Dragon and Phoenix Tribes contributed to the Immortal Tribes, but the Human Race has also made contributions to the alliance.”

“To combat the demon tribe, one of our Da Luo powerhouses has already fallen.”

“If your Dragon Tribe believes the Human Race does not deserve the same rights as you, then I can lead the Human Race to leave the Immortal Tribes,” Yan Qingling stated to all the Da Luo from the Immortal Tribes.

This statement was made after consulting with Li Xiaojun.

For Li Xiaojun, binding the Human Race to the Immortal Tribes brought little benefit; instead, during the war between the Immortal and demon tribes, the Human Race was treated as cannon fodder.

The current situation is such that even if the Human Race separates from the Immortal Tribes, the demon tribe would not dare to act aggressively against them.

Furthermore, after separating from the Immortal Tribes, Li Xiaojun could have Yan Qingling reclaim the interests previously lost by the Human Race and even seize additional benefits.

If the Immortal Tribes were unwilling to comply, they could simply destroy the Human Race. However, Yan Qingling would secretly assassinate all the members below the Da Luo level from the Immortal Tribes.

Unless the Immortal Tribes protected all their members above the immortal level and never let them come out.

If the Immortal Tribes dared to do that, the demon tribe would laugh madly and take over most of the Immortal Tribes’ territory.

Upon hearing that Yan Qingling wanted to lead the Human Race away from the Immortal Tribes, a group of Da Luo from the Immortal Tribes were instantly dumbfounded.

It was absolutely impossible to agree to let the Human Race separate from the Immortal Tribes.

If the Human Race were to leave, the Other Races could potentially be divided and destroyed by the demon tribe.

The Immortal Tribes were already not very united; if the Human Race left, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After thinking for a moment, Dragon Tribe Da Luo said to Yan Qingling, “This… Yan Qingling friend, since you want the Human Race to have the same rights as my Dragon and Phoenix Tribes, how about this: Let’s have a match. If you can defeat me or draw with me, we will agree that the Human Race enjoys the same rights as the Dragon and Phoenix Tribes. What do you think?”

Hearing Dragon Tribe Da Luo’s words, Yan Qingling hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.

“Alright, let’s have a match then.”

Earlier, Yan Qingling had consulted with Li Xiaojun, who suggested that she should face Dragon Tribe Da Luo in battle.

Yan Qingling’s principle was space, which was the second most powerful rule after the rule of time and the rule of force.

There is a saying in the ancient times: time is supreme, space is king, destiny is not to be trifled with, and causality reigns.

This illustrates the power of the rule of time.

With her space rule, Yan Qingling can contend against a mid-stage Da Luo of the demon tribe, and with the support of three early-stage Da Luo, she remains undefeated.

This further showcases the strength of the space rule.

Moreover, this was achieved when Yan Qingling had just quickly broken through to Da Luo and was not very skilled with her attack methods at that level.

Now, since Dragon Tribe Da Luo wanted to test Yan Qingling’s strength, she naturally would not shy away from the battle.

“Let’s go to a higher altitude,” Yan Qingling said lightly to Dragon Tribe Da Luo.

After saying this, she quickly dashed into the sky.

“Sure.”

Dragon Tribe Da Luo nodded and followed behind Yan Qingling.

Seeing this, the other Da Luo from the Immortal Tribes also followed both of them, eager to see the outcome of this battle.

In the sky, once Yan Qingling reached a sufficient height, she stopped and quietly waited for Dragon Tribe Da Luo to arrive.

With the assistance of the space rule, her flying speed was clearly much faster than that of Dragon Tribe Da Luo.

This made Dragon Tribe Da Luo have to take Yan Qingling seriously.

When someone runs faster than you, even if they are weaker, they can hit you and quickly escape.

If you chase, you can’t catch them; if you don’t chase, they hit you. In such a scenario, you could easily be worn down by the other party.

If Yan Qingling’s speed were just somewhat faster, that would be one thing, but it was obvious that her speed was much greater.

If Yan Qingling wanted to use a kite-flying tactic against him, he would only be on the receiving end of the attacks.

Of course, Yan Qingling wouldn’t fight Dragon Tribe Da Luo in such a way, for even if she won, Dragon Tribe Da Luo wouldn’t be convinced.

If she wanted to fight, she had to convince Dragon Tribe Da Luo.

"Let’s begin."

In the sky, seeing that Dragon Tribe Da Luo was ready, Yan Qingling said lightly to him.

“Then let’s get started,” Dragon Tribe Da Luo nodded.

In an instant, both of them moved almost simultaneously.

On the Dragon Tribe side, a series of attacks infused with the power of the Water Rule rushed toward Yan Qingling. Under the guidance of Dragon Tribe Da Luo’s divine sense, the attacks relentlessly pursued the enemy until they hit.

On the other side, Yan Qingling also launched an attack towards Dragon Tribe Da Luo.

Her attack was a powerful strike imbued with the rule of space.

As soon as this attack was launched, it appeared right in front of Dragon Tribe Da Luo in the next moment.

Boom!

A tremendous roar erupted, and Dragon Tribe Da Luo staggered backwards.

The tens of thousands of protective shields surrounding him were shattered in large part.

"The Rule of Space…"

At the same time, Dragon Tribe Da Luo realized that the primary rule Yan Qingling had comprehended was the space rule.

This revelation truly shocked him.

“There’s no need to continue, I concede…”

For the mid-stage Da Luo of the Human Race, Yan Qingling, to comprehend the primary rule of space was overwhelming.

Faced with Yan Qingling, who had mastered the space rule, Dragon Tribe Da Luo did not want to lose badly or be seriously injured, so he chose to admit defeat.

In front of the power of the space rule, conceding would not bring him shame.

After all, it was the space rule.

During the Primordial Period, only a few beings could comprehend the space rule.

All those who comprehended the space rule and grew stronger were undoubtedly powerful individuals.

Thus, conceding to someone who primarily focused on the space rule was nothing to be ashamed of.

However, what Dragon Tribe Da Luo did not know was that Yan Qingling had just broken through to become a Da Luo Golden Immortal and her grasp of the space rule was not that formidable yet.

If he had chosen to fight Yan Qingling, they might have ended up at a stalemate.

This way, he could boast about defeating an opponent who understood the space rule at the same realm.

Of course, if they fought longer, allowing Yan Qingling to adapt to mid-stage Da Luo combat, she would undoubtedly defeat Dragon Tribe Da Luo.

What Yan Qingling did not expect was that Dragon Tribe Da Luo would back down so easily, conceding upon witnessing her use the space rule.

So, should this battle continue?

Around the battlefield, other beings from the Immortal Tribes also saw Yan Qingling wielding the space rule.

Upon realizing that Yan Qingling primarily focused on the space rule, everyone drew in a sharp breath.

In that moment, many secretly resolved not to provoke the Da Luo of the Human Race before them.

A mid-stage Da Luo who primarily focused on the space rule was likely unmatched across the entire Kunlun Realm, and even the strongest members of the demon tribe might not be a match for the Human Race.

For such a powerhouse, it was best to avoid provoking them.

“Since you’ve admitted defeat, the rights of my people…”

“The rights of the Human Race will be equal to those of my Dragon and Phoenix Tribes. Additionally, we will ensure that the interests previously taken from the Human Race are returned…”

“Furthermore, we will coordinate with the various tribes to make up for the benefits the Human Race should enjoy that are equivalent to those of the Dragon and Phoenix Tribes…”

Hearing Dragon Tribe Da Luo’s words, Yan Qingling nodded in satisfaction.

“Then it’s settled,” Yan Qingling agreed.

Whatever she could do to help the Human Race, she would naturally strive for it.

She believed that once the Human Race gained the rights and resources of the Dragon and Phoenix Tribes, they would surely develop even better.
