And so, Richard took Xiao Yao on a journey through various ordinary gathering places.
If you see a Ruler you like, take them with you first, then try to reason with them in the original world. If reasoning fails, you can resort to physical force.
Of course, most of the rule-makers would love for Richard to take them away.
Because the end times are coming, these lone wolves will have little hope of survival.
Richard, on the contrary, gave them hope of survival.
Those few with ulterior motives who want to take over will be taught a lesson by Richard's many powerful subordinates.
Let these masters of rules integrate their own way into his original world.
Richard then reassigned them the corresponding authority.
In this way, Richard's understanding of the path they were taking would reach the level of these masters of rules.
From then on, the progress of these rule masters was equivalent to Richard's progress. People were comprehending the laws 24 hours a day, realizing the ultimate dream of improving their strength simply by sitting still.
This is the unique advantage that belongs to the creators.
The Creator's method of devouring these Rule Masters is simple: as long as they can stomach it, they can simply swallow it.
This is also why Su Yu was able to improve so quickly in the later stages.
Richard was naturally a special being who combined heavens; his original world was the gate he created.
He stopped after collecting about a dozen Rule Masters.
After all, we have to leave some for Su Yu; we can't take everything.
The senior colleague, Li Hao, has already paid.
Richard then left Tianmen.
During this process, he also discovered traces of King Wen and King Wu, and passed by the Immortal Mountain where the Time Master was imprisoned.
However, adhering to the idea of not interfering with the plot, he did not actively interfere.
So let's wait until Su Yu has grown up before we come to save them.
As he had previously told Su Yu, this was Su Yu's karma, not his.
The Earth Gate corresponds to the Chaos Era, sealing away the ancient Chaos Beasts and the lineage of the Prison King. Forget it, I won't go to the Earth Gate. It's useless to him.
The Human Gate was forged by the Ancestor of Humanity and Ji Tian and others using the origin of the River of Time. The powerful beings inside mainly focus on the seven emotions and six desires, as well as the principles of cause and effect and destiny.
He was actually quite interested in those powerful individuals who followed the path of the seven emotions and six desires, but as he said before, in order not to affect Su Yu's development, he reluctantly gave up.
Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. We have powerful beings here who follow the path of the seven emotions and six desires, aren't the Seven Deadly Sins Gods, the God of Emotions, and the God of Love from Douluo Continent all examples of this?
No need to be envious.
Forget it, I won't think about it anymore.
Let's go see the pandas.
They brought Xiao Yao to the Ancient Realm of the Iron-Eating Beasts.
Because they did not conceal their whereabouts, they were quickly discovered by the iron-eating beasts in the ancient realm.
"Humans? My Iron-Eating Beast Clan and your human race have never interfered with each other. May I ask what brings you to my Iron-Eating Beast Clan?" A giant Iron-Eating Beast stood up and asked Richard.
The loud noise caused the surrounding bamboo leaves to sway slightly.
"It's nothing. What's your name, sir?" Richard then asked.
"July." The giant iron-eating beast reluctantly uttered this name.
Ever since the Ninth Tide Era when the Hundred-Battle King sent his allies to their deaths, they no longer enjoy interacting with humans.
"Are you in charge of the Iron-Eating Beasts in the lower realm?" Richard asked again.
"You know quite a lot? What brings you here? Speak up. If you don't, I'll have to see you out," July snorted.
"Alright, I have one more question. Are you Iron-Eating Beasts confident that you can withstand this final tide? Are you confident that you won't be wiped out?" Richard asked bluntly.
"Hmph, you don't need to worry about that. The strength of my Iron-Eating Beast clan is beyond your imagination. Anyone who wants to destroy my Iron-Eating Beast clan should be prepared to fight to the death," July said proudly.
"I know, I know. You have a few Dao Integration experts in the Upper Realm. For example, March, April, May, and even a peak Dao Integration expert like the Giant Bamboo Marquis, right?" Richard casually flaunted the fighting strength of the Iron-Eating Beast Clan.
"Who are you?" July's pupils contracted slightly; this person knew far too much. He had revealed almost all of the remaining fighting force of the Iron-Eating Beast clan.
If it weren't for the fact that it couldn't see through the strength of the person in front of it, it would have been prepared to lead its men to surround and kill this guy.
"Don't worry, I mean no harm. I just wanted to ask if you want me to leave a seed for your tribe? I like iron-eating beasts and want to raise a few. Do you think we should leave one as a safety net? At least I can guarantee that no one can harm you while I'm with you." Richard then revealed his true intentions.
"How dare you insult our clan like this? August, September, attack, take him down!" July was furious before she even finished listening.
What do you take them, the Iron-Eating Beasts?
Do they want to enslave their people? This human has some nerve.
"Look, you're in such a hurry. I haven't even finished speaking."
I can show you the future living conditions for your people if you come with me.
Richard calmly subdued the three iron-eating beasts.
Amidst the horrified gazes of the three iron-eating beasts, he led them into his own primordial world.
He then pointed to a bamboo forest in front of them and said to the three iron-eating beasts, "Look, this is the territory I have prepared for you. As long as any of your tribesmen are willing to come with me, this area can become your territory for your tribe to survive."
As long as I live, your race can continue forever.
"How about it? Think about it. I wouldn't bother if I didn't really like your kind."
"Well..."
"Where am I?" August felt dizzy.
"Dad, Grandpa, look over there, what a huge tree!" September pointed to the Tree of Life in the distance and shouted.
Because the Tree of Life is so enormous, it can be seen almost anywhere in this world.
"This is my world, the world I created. I can guarantee its absolute safety. What you see is the World Tree of this world, and also one of the outer defense lines of this world." Richard thought he was being very sincere.
If these guys still don't agree, he'll have to consider secretly kidnapping the two little iron-eating beasts.
"How can you guarantee your survival in this tide, senior? After all, the human race is in a terrible situation right now," July asked calmly. Even though she knew that Richard's strength far surpassed her own, she couldn't possibly put her people in danger.
"I am not a human from your world, and I am about to leave. At that time, the grudges of your world will have nothing to do with me."
"So you should also be prepared, the iron-eating beasts sent to me may never be seen again in your lifetime." Richard replied calmly.
"What do you mean by 'not the human race of our world'?" September asked.
Listen carefully in July and August.
"That means I'm not a human from your realm. I come from far beyond the Chaos, from a place even the Lord of Rules cannot reach, and I'm about to return. Do you want to leave a seed for your race?" Richard explained.
"Please wait a moment, senior, let us discuss this." July immediately changed her attitude.
He had realized that this must be an unimaginably strong person.
How could such a powerful being possibly be interested in the meager combat strength of the Iron-Eating Beast?
Perhaps they simply like the appearance of their race.
It also knew that the cubs of its own kind were actually quite popular with many races, including humans, especially female creatures.
In that case, it's not impossible to consider leaving a branch clan with the predecessors.
After all, this place is truly safe.
They weren't really sure if their population could survive the tide.
Since the first tide, countless ancient races have vanished into the annals of history.
Currently, the Iron-Eating Beast race maintains neutrality between the human race and all other races, but will both sides continue to allow the Iron-Eating Beast race to remain neutral?
Ultimately, one side must be chosen to join, otherwise the Iron-Eating Beast clan may face annihilation by being besieged by both sides.
When two major forces clash, how can a fence-sitter be tolerated?
Even if you join, how can you guarantee you'll survive to the end? Throughout history, countless groups have perished this way.
The three iron-eating beasts quickly reached an agreement to leave one branch here to ensure the continuation of their clan.
"Then we'll have to trouble the little ones in our clan with your help, senior," July said respectfully.
"No problem, no problem." Richard smiled happily.
His original world now has dozens more iron-eating beasts.
As a branch, several dozen is already quite a lot.
There are only a few hundred of them in the entire Iron-Eating Beast clan.
This group already makes up almost one-tenth of the population.
Of course, as a branch that continues the species, there are definitely not only cubs, but also other iron-eating beasts of various ages.
There was even an Eternal Realm Iron-Eating Beast and two Sun and Moon Realm Iron-Eating Beasts leading the way.
For the Iron-Eating Beast clan, whose high-level combat power is not much, this is already considered a heavy investment.
Richard smiled, waved to July, and turned to leave.
He wasn't stingy either, leaving July a trump card, containing his power. Although it was just something he left behind casually, its power was not to be underestimated. Even the supreme ruler of this world would die instantly if hit by it.
That power can be used three times. If the Iron-Eating Beast clan still perishes after three uses, then it means that this is their fate.
He even told the July Humans that there was someone named Su Yu, and that they should pay more attention to him. If they still couldn't grasp this, then there was nothing more they could do.
His actions already demonstrate a clear bias towards the Iron-Eating Beasts. He can't very well personally become their babysitter, can he?
As for the Iron-Eating Beasts of the Origin World, he also opened the Path of Devouring and the Path of the Physical Body to them.
It even helped their eternal being, named "Hana-getsu," to attain enlightenment.
After leaving the Ancient Realm of the Iron-Eating Beasts, he returned to the Origin World and casually petted a few small Iron-Eating Beasts. Dozens of black and white little dumplings were truly a blessing for those who love rare and precious creatures.
These iron-eating beasts look exactly like pandas, but their strength far surpasses that of ordinary magical beasts and soul beasts in his world.
Furthermore, with its thick skin and strong physique, it was an excellent pet for Richard, unlikely to die.
These little dumplings weren't afraid of him; they would climb all over him whenever they saw him.
Xiao Yao picked up a small black and white dumpling from the side and observed it curiously. She didn't understand why her father liked these little creatures so much.
However, since it's something her father likes, she'll pay more attention to it in the future.
