"I agree."

It was Nuwa who spoke.

With the support of the two great sages present, the Three Pure Ones, and the lack of opposition from the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan, Yi Shuihan smoothly entered the council and became a member of the seven-person council.

Chapter 1192, Wizard Teleportation Crystal

The Wu and Yao clans wanted more say, but with the Three Pure Ones backing down and Yi Shuihan joining, it was impossible. Not to mention Di Jun of the Yao clan, even Hou Tu of the Wu clan did not support them. Therefore, it was unlikely that the final council members would be changed.

From Yi Shuihan's perspective, he also did not want the number of council members to increase, as that would relatively weaken his influence.

"All the original saints of the prehistoric world except for Zhunti and his companion have joined the alliance. It is estimated that even if the invaders are repelled, the alliance can still exist. It's just unknown whether Zhunti and his companion will cause trouble after the news of the alliance gets out."

Zhunti and the others were certainly unwilling to accept the formation of the alliance, but they were ultimately outnumbered and powerless to resist the overwhelming force, unless they both became saints, in which case there would be some chance.

The alliance quickly spread throughout the entire prehistoric world. Under the call of the powerful figures, more and more people joined. In just a few days, the alliance, which initially had only a few dozen people, now had thousands of official members and hundreds of thousands of peripheral members.

To become a full member, one must reach the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, while even peripheral members must be at least a Heavenly Immortal.

The Alliance has become the undisputed number one power in the prehistoric world, and the core of this power, the seven-member council, has become even more famous in the prehistoric world. Of course, each of them already had a great reputation in the prehistoric world before, and now their reputation is just even greater.

“Senior brother, they’ve gone too far. They didn’t even inform us when they formed the Anti-Invasion Alliance. We’re destined to become saints, and now we don’t even have the qualifications to be a councilor? Nuwa and Houtu are one thing, but in what way are we not better than Zhen Yuanzi? He can become a councilor, so why can’t we?”

Zhunti was furious. He and Jieyin eventually joined the alliance, but because the council members were already fixed, they could only become ordinary official members, which was a huge blow to their reputation.

As disciples of Hongjun, they are all powerful beings destined to become saints in the future. They are just ordinary members. Even though Laozi is the only councilor of the Three Pure Ones, the outside world does not look down on them because they are considered as one. But the two of them are different. Now, the outside world is looking at them with strange eyes.

The thought that many of the guys who used to look at him with fear now look at him with equality or even contempt fueled Zhunti's rage, and he wished he could kill them all.

"What's the use of saying all this now? As long as we become saints, nothing will be a problem."

Jieyin spoke calmly, and this composed attitude calmed Zhunti's heart. He knew all too well that everything would be different once he became a saint, but becoming a saint was too difficult and he didn't have a single clue yet, which was why he was so agitated.

"So what should we do next? Focus all our efforts on how to become a saint, or go on a mission?"

Compared to Jieyin, Zhunti actually prefers to do tasks to gain merit points. As long as he has enough merit points, he can become a saint without comprehending the Primordial Purple Qi. Moreover, if he can surpass other powerful beings on the Heavenly Dao Merit Ranking, it will be very beneficial to their future development. At that time, no one will bring up the fact that they are not members of the council.

"Go and complete your mission. I will continue to comprehend the Primordial Purple Qi. Come find me again if you have any tricky tasks."

Jieyin knew his junior brother's temperament and knew that it was unrealistic to force Zhunti to comprehend the Primordial Purple Qi at this time. Moreover, it would be a shame for them to cower and not participate in the fight against the invaders. Based on this, Jieyin made the decision to split the forces into two groups.

"Yes, that's what I think too. Senior brother, you should focus on comprehending the Primordial Purple Qi. I will definitely make a name for our West."

Zhunti was quite satisfied with his senior brother's arrangements and quickly expressed his agreement.

Zhunti's dissatisfaction at not being able to become a member of parliament was transformed into motivation when he thought about the mission of the Heavenly Merit Ranking. Next, Zhunti planned to make his presence felt in the prehistoric world.

......

"That's a bit awkward."

Yi Shuihan watched as the wizards right under his noses spread their culture with impunity, attempting to turn the human race against the tide and turn them into a spy in the prehistoric world.

"I must say, that was a brilliant move! It's a pity you've misjudged the situation. The human race is still in its most innocent and simple period, and it's too difficult to turn them against their will. If it were during a time when both the witch and demon races were targeting the human race, during a time of great calamity for the human race, there might have been a sliver of a chance. But now that I'm here, I certainly won't let that happen."

After instructing Kunpeng to deal with the outsiders mixed in with the human race, Yi Shuihan turned his attention to other tasks.

"Damage to the wizard teleportation crystal? There are 7 teleportation crystals in total, each guarded by a wizard with the strength of a quasi-saint. It is recommended to go in a team."

The task that Yi Shuihan was interested in was naturally not a simple one. Simple tasks would not earn enough merit points and would not demonstrate Yi Shuihan's strength. Because of the system task, Yi Shuihan needed to make a good impression on the prehistoric world and increase his reputation so that it would be easier to take control in the future.

Without hesitation, Yi Shuihan immediately accepted this most difficult task at present, without exception.

Having a wizard comparable to a quasi-saint to guard the area is already a huge problem. There are only a few dozen saints in the primordial world, and they are on the defensive. Fighting on their territory, we don't know what arrangements they have made, so we lose our advantage of terrain. Ordinary quasi-saints are unable to complete the mission.

Most importantly, the locations of these 7 teleportation crystals are not specified in the quest description. This means that the person who accepts the quest must find them themselves, which is simply outrageous. Even the Heavenly Dao cannot discern the location, only knowing the exact number. Others can only use the most cumbersome method of searching the entire area or relying on luck. If Yi Shuihan can complete such a quest, it will undoubtedly bring him a large amount of reputation.

"Hopefully, the teleportation crystal detector that the company bought won't malfunction, otherwise we'll suffer a huge loss."

Even the Heavenly Dao couldn't find it, so naturally Yi Shuihan couldn't either. However, he had powerful connections and directly exchanged suitable equipment from the company.

Chapter 1193, First Encounter with People of the Wizarding World

"A Crystal Detector costs 1000 contribution points, which is comparable to the price of an ordinary system. It is equipment specifically produced to deal with this situation, and it is said to be very popular in all the worlds."

They took out the so-called crystal detector, which was a magnifying glass-like device. It would automatically alert them if there was a wizard teleportation crystal within a million miles, and then they could use it to quickly find the location of the teleportation crystal.

Although the prehistoric continent is vast, the range of the crystal detector is also considerable. While it cannot find the crystal immediately, it is at least not as difficult as searching for a needle in a haystack.

After a week, Yi Shuihan finally located the seven wizard teleportation crystals using the crystal detector. Now he could start planning how to complete the mission.

"Destroying all the wizard crystals would greatly slow down the wizarding world's invasion of the prehistoric world. However, doing so would likely be seen as a thorn in the side by the wizarding world, which is not advisable. Destroying a single crystal might be seen as not being lucky enough. Half of them must be destroyed. Whether it is four or five depends on the attitude of the people in the wizarding world."

Yi Shuihan's plan was to destroy the crystal without killing the powerful wizard guarding it. This way, the wizarding world wouldn't hate him too much. A wizard comparable to a quasi-saint must hold an important position in the wizarding world, and there's a high possibility that a sage is standing behind him. Yi Shuihan would try his best not to offend the sage.

It wasn't that Yi Shuihan was afraid of the sage; he was a businessman who naturally wanted to make money through harmony. Offending a sage, no matter how good the system was, would have a certain impact on sales. The sage could simply buy it secretly and then order others not to buy it!

Without bringing a group of people, Yi Shuihan and his mount Kunpeng arrived at the hidden location of the first teleportation crystal.

It looks like an ordinary lake, with many creatures coming to drink at any time, creating a peaceful and serene scene.

Such a place is easily overlooked even by Yi Shuihan, who might not explore it carefully lest he disturb its tranquility.

Does anyone know that dozens of miles below the lake, there is a huge cavern where the wizard's teleportation crystal is located?

“One quasi-saint, or rather, a holy spirit wizard, followed by seven sun wizards. Even if two quasi-saints came, we might not be able to defeat them.”

The Sun Wizard is a 7th-tier wizard, on par with World King-level mecha pilots and Great Luo Golden Immortals of the Primordial World.

"Sir, what are we doing here?"

Kunpeng asked, completely unable to discern Yi Shuihan's purpose.

"Do the task."

"Do the task?"

"Indeed, the Destruction Wizard Teleportation Crystal."

Yi Shuihan's answer startled Kunpeng. If Yi Shuihan wasn't joking, it meant that Yi Shuihan had found the location of the wizard's teleportation crystal, and if nothing unexpected happened, the location was right here.

Kunpeng had also seen this mission before. After all, he also had a avatar on the Heavenly Dao Merit Ranking, and that most difficult mission had long attracted the attention of all the great powers in the prehistoric world, including him.

The mission rewards are generous. Anyone who can destroy a single crystal will receive a top-grade innate spiritual treasure. If they can destroy all of them, they can exchange their merit points for a supreme innate treasure.

Many powerful beings are very interested in this task, but the task is too difficult. Even the Heavenly Dao does not know the exact location of the crystal. They can only rely on luck, and so far no one has found a single crystal.

Seeing Yi Shuihan walk towards the lake, Kunpeng looked thoughtful.

"Minute."

With a soft shout, the lake water split to the left and right, creating a channel several meters wide through which the bottom of the lake could be seen.

Yi Shuihan walked into the passage, followed closely by Kunpeng. When they reached the center of the lake, Yi Shuihan stopped and looked down at the bottom of the lake.

"Is it down there?"

Kunpeng didn't find anything below. As a quasi-saint, his detection range was extremely large. He didn't find anything unusual even tens of thousands of miles below the lake.

“If they were so easy to find, they would have been found long ago.”

Noticing the confusion in Kunpeng's eyes, Yi Shuihan said.

When Yi Shuihan arrived at the bottom of the lake, the people below also discovered him, since Yi Shuihan did not try to hide himself.

"Reporting to Lord Jay, two quasi-saints have arrived."

"Oh? So you've discovered us here?"

"do not know."

"Gather everyone, get on alert, and attack as soon as they come down."

"Ok."

Those below were on high alert, ready to face a fierce storm if Yi Shuihan were to actually descend.

Even Yi Shuihan himself was unaware of this. He was able to discover the crystal using a detector, but the detector could only indicate the existence of the crystal and the level of the powerful life forms near it. It could not show what these life forms were doing.

Of course, Yi Shuihan was also prepared for the attack he might face if he went down there, because if it were him, he certainly wouldn't let such an opportunity pass him by.

"Wait a minute, be careful, try to stay behind me."

After giving Kunpeng these instructions, Yi Shuihan's body slowly merged into the ground.

The journey of dozens of miles took Yi Shuihan only a few seconds. The moment he entered the space containing the crystal, he was met with a barrage of attacks of all kinds: fireballs, ice spikes, venom...

Each attack may not seem flashy, but it is actually extremely powerful and poses a certain threat to even a Quasi-Saint. The strongest one is fatal to a Quasi-Saint.

"Wow! The friends in the wizarding world are really quite enthusiastic!"

Yi Shuihan, who was well-prepared, was unharmed, while Kunpeng, who was following behind him, was somewhat disheveled.

"Continue the attack."

Another barrage of attacks came crashing down. In addition to the energy spells from before, there were many other things this time. A swarm of spiders rapidly approached Yi Shuihan from the ground, exploding as soon as they reached him. A group of ugly little monsters roared and charged forward, opening their mouths to bite at Yi Shuihan.

Frowning, Yi Shuihan's body crackled with lightning, easily neutralizing all attacks, leaving a large pile of charred monster corpses on the ground.

"Since you refuse to communicate, let's have a fight first."

As he spoke, his figure vanished from the spot, rushing towards the wizard's camp. He encountered something resembling a barrier on the way, but it did not even have the effect of stopping Yi Shuihan for a moment.

Chapter 1194, Destroying the Crystal

The wizards were astonished that the magic array had no effect on Yi Shuihan, but they were quick to react and launched another series of attacks.

"Soul-stealing Technique"

"weak"

Lightning Storm

"Phytophagy"

"..."

This round of attacks was even more powerful than the previous ones, but it was useless. Yi Shuihan, who was already moving very fast, suddenly accelerated and perfectly dodged all the attacks.

He arrived before a Sun Wizard, and to the Wizard's horrified gaze, his hand transformed into a lightning blade, slicing the Wizard in two with a single strike, annihilating even the Wizard's soul.

After killing a wizard comparable to a Great Immortal, Yi Shuihan showed no emotion and moved on to the next target.

Repeat the lightning blade, one, two, three, but not a fourth, because he had already pierced through it, and the other wizards were on the other side.

"This is the teleportation crystal?"

Ten meters in front of Yi Shuihan, a blue crystal stone the size of several people floated in the void, and in front of the crystal stone was a vortex resembling a wormhole.

"Oh no, stop him! His target is the teleportation crystal!"

The wizards realized what was happening, but it was too late. Yi Shuihan stepped forward to the crystal and silently threw a punch.

With a single punch, a ripple spread through space, obliterating everything in its path, even the crystal itself.

"Thankfully, crystal isn't that easily damaged. Quickly, protect the water..."

Jay, the only Holy Spirit Wizard present and a Quasi-Saint level being, breathed a sigh of relief. Then he saw the teleportation crystal tremble violently. Two seconds later, a violent explosion rang out, and the teleportation crystal exploded, turning into beautiful dust stars that dissipated in front of him.

"That completes one of the tasks!"

The murmurs reached the wizards' ears, instantly igniting their emotions. Even though Yi Shuihan had just swiftly and decisively killed four Sun Wizards, it couldn't stop their anger.

The wizard teleportation crystals are a strategic asset in the wizarding world, extremely precious, even more valuable than the wizards who guard them. Over the years, the entire wizarding world has accumulated very few of them. The order from above is that as long as the crystal exists, the person lives; if the crystal is destroyed, the person dies.

Now that the crystal is destroyed, even if they survive, they will be held accountable, and their fate will be no better than death.

All the wizards present turned red-eyed, radiating an uncontrollable killing intent, and looked at Yi Shuihan as if he were their father's killer.

"What the hell? This hatred is unexpectedly strong!"

Seeing the wizards' eyes, Yi Shuihan thought of those suicide squads who would rather die together than let the enemy be harmed, and he was immediately stunned.

Are wizards all so united that they hate me so much just because I killed a few of their companions?

Ultimately, Yi Shuihan didn't know the specific value of the teleportation crystal, which is why he misunderstood the situation.

"Kill him at all costs."

Jay roared, his voice booming like thunder, as if a giant were roaring.

"Hey! Wait a minute, let's talk this out. I came here in a friendly manner, and what happened earlier was all a misunderstanding."

Yi Shuihan still wanted to save the situation, but the wizards were no longer listening to anything and were frantically trying to channel their magical power into Yi Shuihan.

"There's absolutely no way to communicate with them!"

At first, Yi Shuihan was just avoiding them, thinking he would talk to them when they were tired. However, when a wizard ran out of magic power and came to his side to carry out a suicide attack, Yi Shuihan finally realized that communication was no longer possible. His only option now was to kill them all as soon as possible.
