Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 1680: Saint of Taiqing began to reveal his cards at one thousand and ninety.

When someday, Jiang Chen’s divine abilities can convince those Great Divine Transcendents that the Prehistoric World once truly saw the birth of an Emperor Ziwei, only then could he be considered truly invincible.

"The Human Race is truly about to overturn the heavens."

The upheaval within the Human Race was so great that the top experts of humanity could not remain unaware. Through this event, they had come to understand Jiang Chen’s stance.

No matter who it is, regardless of whether they have aided the Human Race before, as long as they dare to oppose the Human Race, they are considered enemies and must be defeated.

This is Jiang Chen’s will; it is also the Human Race’s will. Whoever dares to oppose it stands against the entirety of humanity and will likewise become a target to be overthrown.

At such a critical moment for the Human Race, unity within is imperative. All must rally tightly around Jiang Chen, for only then can all their power be concentrated to vanquish their foes.

Those who refuse to align themselves with Jiang Chen clearly exclude themselves from the Human Race. What may happen to them is anyone’s guess.

...

......

Having resolved the hidden threats to humanity, Jiang Chen did not halt his steps but instead headed to Mount Tai.

Mount Tai, the sacred site of imperial rites!

In mythology, this mountain connects to the heavens above and links to the earth below. Even in reality, it remains so. Beneath Mount Tai lies the Netherworld.

Before the Underworld came into being, its ruler was the Lord of Mount Tai, Taishan Fujun.

Even after Taishan Fujun’s demise, during the Investiture of the Gods era, his successor, the Yin Emperor, bore a divine title still related to Mount Tai—namely, the Heavenly Emperor of Great Benevolence, the sovereign of the Eastern Peak.

To assert dominion over the Netherworld, one must begin at Mount Tai. Though Taishan Fujun was associated with Fengdu Emperor, another ruler of the Netherworld, their authority differed somewhat in scope.

Taishan Fujun was primarily focused on governance—rewarding virtue, punishing evil, and determining humanity’s fortunes and misfortunes. Meanwhile, Fengdu Emperor was the master of the Ghost Dao, commanding billions of souls.

Only when the powers of both are unified can one attain supreme control over the Netherworld.

The position of Fengdu Emperor was already as good as in Jiang Chen’s grasp, and this time, his visit to Mount Tai was meant to bring Mount Tai into his domain as well.

Jiang Chen did not bother to veil his intentions; those observing him in secret saw his destination and instantly guessed his motives. Yet, though they speculated, none dared intervene. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

Jiang Chen’s record of victories was laid bare, his strength proven beyond doubt. Unless a Saint’s true form emerged, no one could be his match.

To obstruct him now would be tantamount to courting death. What difference would it make?

"How does the Star Lord’s mind work, to come up with so many grand schemes? He already controls the Boundless Starry Sky, governs most of the Mortal Realm, and now he sets his sights on the Netherworld."

"Should he succeed in incorporating the Netherworld into his dominion, bolstered by the Original Source of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity within the Three Realms, even a Saint’s true body might at best only match him in battle."

"Thankfully, the Dongsheng Divine Continent remains isolated and untouched by the Star Lord. Should it fall into his hands, he would indeed be invincible. Beyond the Taoist Ancestors, not even a Saint would be a match for him."

In the shadows, many Great Divine Transcendents simulated predictions about Jiang Chen’s trajectory, only to arrive at a despairing conclusion: his momentum was truly unstoppable.

Perhaps if a Saint’s true form acted now, there might still be a chance to suppress him. But if he were to claim the Netherworld as his own, even a Saint would be hard-pressed to do more than fight him to a draw.

And if he eventually seized control of the Dongsheng Divine Continent, even Saints would no longer last a single bout before him.

"It’s not that the Star Lord comes up with too many schemes, but that he possesses extraordinary drive. Whatever he envisions, he pays no mind to risks or overthinking. He simply acts and executes."

"I refuse to believe that none of you ever contemplated similar ambitions to his, or dreamt of doing what he now does. Surely, long ago, you had such thoughts."

"But because of endless concerns—an overemphasis on gains and losses—you hesitated, over-deliberated, and ultimately let countless opportunities slip by."

"The reason the Star Lord stands triumphant in his position today is not due to superior wisdom, but because he dared tread where you feared to step."

"What the Star Lord possesses, and you lack, is a profound audacity—a great courage. When decisive moments arrive, Jiang Chen dares to risk it all, while you falter."

At some unknown moment, the voice of the Saint of Taiqing suddenly echoed in the ears of the Great Divine Transcendents, analyzing the disparity between them and Jiang Chen.

It is neither a matter of talent nor intelligence—instead, it is their lack of action.

All the plans they devised forever remained mere plans. Jiang Chen, however, differed. When a plan formed in his mind, he did not dwell over the odds of success but immediately moved to enact it.

This is why Jiang Chen succeeded while they continued to languish in failure. Actions must be taken for success to be possible. Inaction guarantees failure.

"This..."

A gathering of Great Divine Transcendents felt a wave of embarrassment at the Saint of Taiqing’s words, incapable of refuting him.

For the Saint of Taiqing spoke the truth—they had worried too much, rendering themselves timid, endlessly theorizing yet refusing to act.

Take, for instance, the reconstruction of the Chaos World. Many Great Divine Transcendents had entertained this idea, but no one dared execute it for fear of others seizing the fruits of their labor.

In truth, such overthinking was futile; they should have acted directly. Before Jiang Chen reconstructed the Chaos World, his strength was inferior to theirs. Only after producing tangible results did his power soar, leaving them far behind.
