1367 Lin Feng’s Condition!
“That’s right, it’s the strategy of instigating an internecine competition! There’s only three Two-star Boundary Stones, and we have the nine Supremacy elders. How should we divide them?”
A murderous expression appeared on Supremacy Magnum’s face as he continued, “But even though we know that they’re instigating an internecine competition, some people from the First Light were unwilling to give up just like that. They had even deviated from the original intention of establishing the First Light back then, and only considered their own benefits. For example, Supremacy First Light and Supremacy Prime Glory, whom Dark Domain Supremacy met previously, were both co-founders. Yet now, they’re willing to give the First Light to the Opulent Lodge for the sake of a Two-star Boundary Stone. The two of them can obtain Two-star Boundary Stones and have a chance of becoming Two-star Supremacies, but what about us? They are sacrificing the interests of the other Supremacy elders!”
At this point, Supremacy Magnum even had a murderous look on his face.
Lin Feng understood now. The First Light had already completely divided. The nine Supremacy elders had become completely divided over three mere Two-star Boundary Stones, and were even at odds with each other.
Lin Feng did not have a bottleneck, but he knew very well the feeling of being eager to break through after encountering a bottleneck. Supremacy Autumn, Supremacy Winter, and Supremacy Fura could not become One-star Supremacies now precisely because they did not have any One-star Boundary Stones.
Even though they were still some distance away from becoming One-star Supremacies, they were still very eager to obtain a One-star Boundary Stone.
This was already the case for Supremacy Autumn and Supremacy Winter, let alone those peak One-star Supremacies who were eager to become Two-star Supremacies. Two-star Boundary Stones were very rare.
At the very least, Lin Feng had almost never come across one. He had also obtained many chiliocosm domains. He had even plundered the Indefinite Sect, but he had never encountered a Two-star Boundary Stone.
On the other hand, he had come across some One-star Boundary Stones.
Two-star Boundary Stones were rather rare even in small chiliocosms. Even the First Light, with such a deep foundation and such a long history, could not obtain a Two-star Boundary Stone. This was enough to show how difficult it was to obtain a Two-star Boundary Stone.
However, the Opulent Lodge could casually offer three Two-star Boundary Stones. This was not a matter of foundation, but because the Opulent Lodge Headquarters was in the medium chiliocosm.
Lin Feng did not know how the medium chiliocosm was stronger than the small chiliocosm, but the fact that the Opulent Lodge could easily offer three Two-star Boundary Stones was enough to prove that the Opulent Lodge had the ability to offer more Two-star Boundary Stones.
However, they only offered three of them. Their goal was naturally self-evident.
Despite knowing that it was the Opulent Lodge’s ploy, Supremacy First Light and the other Supremacies could not refuse.
That was the temptation of immediately becoming a Two-star Supremacy. Who could resist it?
“In that case, it’s the six Supremacies, including Supremacy Magnum, contending against the other three Supremacies, including Supremacy First Light?” Lin Feng asked curiously.
“No, if the six of us can work together, it will be easy. The key is that Supremacy First Light has always been the strongest expert of the First Light. His influence in the First Light is very strong. Just Supremacy First Light alone has roped in three Supremacy elders. Including the other two Supremacy elders, Supremacy First Light has a total of five Supremacy elders on his side. On our side that’s opposing them, there are only four Supremacy elders…” Supremacy Magnum said helplessly.
It turned out that the number of people on Supremacy Magnum’s side was even fewer than those on Supremacy First Light’s.
However, there was only a difference of one person. Lin Feng vaguely understood Supremacy Magnum’s purpose of roping him in now.
“You want me to become one of the Supremacy elders, and thus become one of you, so that five Supremacy elders can contend against the five Supremacy elders on Supremacy First Light’s side?”
“That’s right, that’s right! Once we have five Supremacy elders on our side, Supremacy First Light’s side won’t be able to form an advantage in the Elder Council. As long as the five Supremacy elders oppose the motion, they can forget about integrating the entire First Light into the Opulent Lodge.”
Lin Feng felt that this was a little too careless. Could the Elder Council alone stop them from joining the Opulent Lodge, just because the number of assenters didn’t allow it?
“Supremacy Magnum, please forgive me for being blunt. So what if I join, and five Supremacy elders object to it? Wouldn’t Supremacy First Light directly lead the factions of the other four Supremacies to leave the First Light? What’s the difference between that and incorporating the First Light into the Opulent Lodge?”
If Lin Feng were Supremacy First Light, he would definitely do this.
“Heh, Dark Domain Supremacy still doesn’t quite understand the system of our First Light. Our First Light established the system of the Elder Council, and encouraged the elders to develop their own direct faction. However, in reality, the Elder Council firmly controls the forces of the entire First Light. Once an order is passed by the Elder Council, the subordinate factions will obey it.
“Therefore, even if Supremacy First Light insists on doing things his own way, and leads the five Supremacy elders to leave the First Light, they can take away only a very, very small portion of the forces under their command. The reason behind this is very complicated, and there are many interests entangled, but this is the characteristic of our First Light. The Opulent Lodge also knows very well. It is why they used three Two-star Boundary Stones to divide us, and even turn us against each other, to ultimately achieve their goal. If only five Supremacies like Supremacy First Light join them, and cannot even bring their forces away, the Opulent Lodge will not give them Two-star Boundary Stones. The Opulent Lodge wants the forces of the entire First Light, not just a few One-star Supremacies.”
“I see. The system of the First Light is so unique. Then, once my Domain Alliance is integrated into the First Light, will it also become like this in the future? Will I be unable to take away my direct forces of the Domain Alliance with me?”
Lin Feng also thought of this.
“Uh… This won’t happen within a short period of time. The Dark Domain Supremacy has absolute authority in the Domain Alliance. However, if it goes on for a long time, I’m afraid that’s indeed the case. As time passes, the Domain Alliance will also completely integrate into the system of the First Light. At that time, if the Dark Domain Supremacy wants to leave, you can only take a very small fraction of people with you.”
Lin Feng frowned. Supremacy Magnum would not lie to him about such a thing. However, if that was really the case, things wouldn’t be worth joining the First Light.
In the end, he would not even have the Domain Alliance that he had single-handedly established.
As if he knew Lin Feng’s concerns, Supremacy Magnum smiled mysteriously and said, “Dark Domain Supremacy, what was your goal in establishing the Domain Alliance back then? Wasn’t it to serve yourself better and collect resources like Boundary Stones? Once the Domain Alliance joins the First Light, your gains will not be reduced. On the contrary, it will increase greatly. The various resources of the First Light will be open to you. Moreover, the development bottleneck of the Domain Alliance will disappear from now on. This is killing two birds with one stone. It won’t affect the interests of the many Controllers and the Dark Domain Supremacy in the Domain Alliance.”
Lin Feng pondered for a long time. Finally, he slowly raised his head.
“I agree! But on one condition.”
“What condition? Go ahead.”
“After I joined the First Light, I couldn’t interfere with the other Supremacies, but the four Supremacy elders on your side must give me all your Boundary Stones.”
This was Lin Feng’s condition. He only had one goal from the beginning, and that was Boundary Stones!
Lin Feng already knew how deep the foundation of the First Light was, and how wealthy the nine Supremacy elders were. Even if he just obtained the Boundary Stones of the four Supremacy elders, it would definitely be beyond his imagination.
However, Lin Feng still had to get Supremacy Magnum to agree to his condition. Lin Feng did not know if Supremacy Magnum could agree to it. However, he also knew that Supremacy Magnum no longer had a way out.
