Chapter 2300: Only to be understood intuitively

Two of the world's most powerful beings have personally arrived in this realm, causing the divine race to feel as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

On the dark sea, the water rippled.

"I'll go over and talk to you first. You wait here for a while."

Chen Qingyuan said to An Xiruo.

An Xiruo had no objection: "Okay."

Snap!

After taking a few steps forward, Chen Qingyuan stopped, waiting for the people from the Divine Race to arrive so they could talk face to face.

Things haven't escalated to the point where war is inevitable, so it's best to avoid a lose-lose situation.

Whoosh!

As always, Chu Mo, dressed in a dark robe, strode out from the seabed, exuding unparalleled elegance and extraordinary presence.

"Why are you here again?"

Chu Mo spoke his mind directly, his tone somewhat disdainful.

Judging from your tone, it seems you're not very welcoming to me!

Chen Qingyuan feigned displeasure.

"Speak directly if you have something to say."

Chu Mo's expression was cold, and he was on high alert.

"I've already read through the ancient books you gave me last time. Based on my understanding of the gods, it's impossible that they only have these unimportant historical records. Could you bring out some of your best treasures?"

Chen Qingyuan got straight to the point and stated his purpose.

"The remaining texts concern clan secrets and are not convenient to disclose to outsiders."

Although Chu Mo considered Chen Qingyuan a friend deep down, he was, after all, a member of the Divine Race and had to prioritize the interests of the Divine Race.

"We can make a deal."

Before coming, Chen Qingyuan had already thought of a solution.

The mention of the word "transaction" clearly amplifies the emphasis.

"A trade? What do you want to exchange it for?"

Chu Mo narrowed his eyes, showing some interest.

"A secret."

Chen Qingyuan took the matter seriously.

"A secret?" Chu Mo was surprised for a moment, then said solemnly, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the higher-ups in the clan."

"Secrets about the gods."

Chen Qingyuan's expression was solemn, and he did not seem to be faking it.

Upon hearing this, Chu Mo's expression changed drastically, his heart tightened, and he could no longer ignore it: "Oh?"

After giving Chen Qingyuan a deep look, sensing that he wasn't just spouting nonsense, Chu Mo pondered for a moment before continuing the conversation, asking, "What secret?"

"Although I don't know if your clan knows this secret, it is absolutely related to the very foundation of your clan."

Previously, in the Zangheng Forbidden Zone, Chen Qingyuan had a conversation with Emperor Qiheng and deduced a taboo matter concerning the Primordial God Clan, which involved extremely profound causal rules.

"Is this true?"

This matter concerns the fundamental secrets of the gods, and Chu Mo's expression turned solemn.

On the seabed, the high-ranking members of the Protoss heard these words and were surprised and took them very seriously.

Judging from Chen Qingyuan's confident demeanor, he might actually know something.

After a brief discussion, the high-ranking members of the Divine Race immediately sent a telepathic message to Chu Mo, instructing him to uncover this secret.

Chen Qingyuan solemnly replied, "Of course."

Chu Mo's expression turned serious: "What do you want?"

Chen Qingyuan bluntly stated: "Don't try to fool me with some unimportant historical events; these are the true foundational texts of the Divine Race."

The ancient books that Chen Qingyuan recently obtained contained rather ordinary and crude records, clearly obscuring a lot of important information.

"If what you say is true, I promise to grant your request."

Compared to the fundamental secrets of the gods, nothing else matters.

“Alright, let us swear an oath with our hearts, and if we break it, we will stop here for the rest of our lives.”

Chen Qingyuan truly knew a secret and hadn't lied. He swore an oath, shocking everyone.

Now that Chen Qingyuan had gone this far, Chu Mo had no more doubts and swore an oath to guarantee a fair trade and to bring out the true foundational texts of the Divine Race.

Both sides made vows, and the atmosphere was quite heavy.

Swish!

With a wave of his hand, Chen Qingyuan created a barrier that isolated the world from the heavens and earth.

Set out an elegant seat and pour two cups of tea.

Chen Qingyuan pointed to the empty seat in front of him: "Sit down."

This spot is spacious, just right for Chu Mo.

After taking his seat, Chu Mo couldn't calm down and urged, "Speak!"

"No rush, have a cup of tea first."

"No rush," Chen Qingyuan said with a smile.

Chu Mo picked up the large teacup on the table and brought it to his lips. He gazed at Chen Qingyuan in front of him, remaining silent and waiting patiently.

"I've finished the Jade Dew from the River of Oblivion you gave me last time. Do you have any left?"

Before discussing important matters, Chen Qingyuan planned to get some good wine.

Aside from the celestial wine concocted by the Medicine Maiden, the Jade Dew of the Forgotten River of the Divine Race can be considered the finest in the world. If ordinary cultivators drink it appropriately, it will surely improve their cultivation level, solidify their foundation, and leave no hidden dangers.

"You really are..."

Chu Mo was speechless at Chen Qingyuan's behavior.

Although he felt helpless, Chu Mo still took out two jars of Forgetful River Jade Dew from his Qiankun bag and handed them to Chen Qingyuan: "There's not much left, so drink it sparingly."

"You said the same thing last time."

Chen Qingyuan didn't believe that such a vast divine race would lack precious wines. He happily pocketed the Jade Dew of the Forgotten River, his face beaming with joy.

Chu Mo sat upright and dignified, cold and silent.

"I'll treat you to tea, and you'll treat me to wine. Isn't that great?"

This is a fact, and it cannot be denied.

Chu Mo was too lazy to argue about such a trivial matter.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Having obtained two jugs of the divine race's precious brew, Chen Qingyuan no longer delayed.

Instantly, the smile vanished from his lips, replaced by an extremely solemn expression, as if he were a completely different person.

With two crisp "tap" sounds, Chen Qingyuan took out two glass cups and placed them in front of him, not far apart.

"This is your clan's ancestor."

Chen Qingyuan pointed to the cup on the left and gave an example.

Then, he pointed to the cup on the right: "This is a celestial bone that fell to the land of China a thousand years ago."

After saying these two sentences, Chen Qingyuan flicked his right index finger, and a soft white light emerged from his fingertip, connecting the two cups.

Chen Qingyuan didn't speak again, but met Chu Mo's gaze with a meaningful look.

This is no longer a hint, but an explicit statement.

At first, Chu Mo was slightly puzzled when he saw Chen Qingyuan take out the cup to make a comparison.

Upon seeing the two cups connected, Chu Mo immediately understood. His burly body trembled slightly, and his deep eyes widened suddenly, flashing with an undisguised glint of light. His cold and arrogant expression was instantly replaced by shock.

A powerful aura erupted from his body, clearly a sign of his loss of control.

Chu Mo was unsettled, his breathing erratic, his fingers trembling slightly, and his voice shaking noticeably: "You mean...?"

"It can only be understood intuitively, not explained in words."

For safety reasons, Chen Qingyuan interrupted.

If we explain things too clearly, we might incur very terrible karmic consequences.

Cause and effect are invisible and intangible, and once you're caught on them, they're very difficult to deal with. One wrong move, and it can even endanger your life.

It took Chu Mo quite a while to calm himself down. His chest was still heaving, and his eyes remained fixed on the two glass cups on the table.

He wasn't looking at the cup itself, but at the deeper meaning it contained.
