Chapter 1198: What Happened to Valuing Harmony?
Talent Garden's exterior.
Two teams that had passed the application were preparing to set out.
One team, led by Yu Hang, boasted members like Zuo Qinqin and Sun Yu, both among the top ten of Talent Garden, plus Yu Feng and Mo Awa, who ranked within the top twenty, making their team's combat prowess unparalleled in Talent Garden.
The other team was a bit less uniform.
A Chaos God, a peak strongest expert, a top strongest expert, an ordinary strongest expert, plus one——
Sovereign Venerate.
"Hi." Wang Ye greeted Zuo Qinqin with a smile.
Regardless of the outcome, this girl's durability and patience were indeed commendable.
But they were misapplied.
If she had used them to bring down himself, she might have succeeded.
"Hmph!" Zuo Qinqin turned her head away, not wanting to deal with Wang Ye.
How infuriating!
Repeated invitations, all rejected.
Who would have thought that he would turn around, form his own team, and head to Earthly Branch Chaos Realm.
And even got the application approved!
"Let's cooperate if there's a chance," Yu Hang still maintained his grace, nodded politely to Qionghua Divine, and extended his hand to Wang Ye.
"Sure." Wang Ye reached out and shook hands with Zuo Qinqin, who was standing beside Yu Hang.
Yu Hang: ?
Zuo Qinqin: ?
"Everyone is here." Zhuo Hua God came out smiling, accompanied by Qin Se Emperor, who was responsible for managing Talent Garden.
"Let me say a few words to everyone."
Zhuo Hua God said, "You should have already gone through the data and information about Earthly Branch Chaos Realm; the last failure was a significant loss for our Talent Garden."
Crack! Yu Hang clenched his fists tightly, a flash of killing intent in his eyes.
East Divine Alliance!
"But without carving, no stone becomes a tool," Zhuo Hua God's tone shifted: "You are the elite of the Human Great Clan Alliance and must shoulder the responsibility, face difficulties head-on without fear!"
"Whether or not you can obtain a Divine Core or Rare Divine Core is secondary."
"The key is this spirit, the pride of the Human Great Clan Alliance, must not be lost!"
"Yes, sir!" everyone responded.
Zhuo Hua God nodded in satisfaction, his gaze turning to Qin Se Emperor: "Anything else to instruct?"
Qin Se Emperor, expressionless, lightly said, "If you can't win, run, don't force a fight."
Zhuo Hua God: "…"
Wang Ye smiled knowingly.
The two leaders truly had completely different personalities.
"Well, that's it then," Zhuo Hua God said somewhat awkwardly, his eyes sweeping over Yu Hang and Wang Ye: "I've set up a sensor for your Light Jade; you are competitors on this mission, but also teammates, if there's danger you must help each other, understand?"
"Yes, sir." Both men responded.
Soon after, the mobilization was completed.
Both teams boarded the Chaos Spacetime Shuttle and flew away.
They vanished in an instant.
"Do you think they can succeed this time?" Zhuo Hua God asked, hands behind his back, watching the direction they had left in.
"Unlikely." Qin Se Emperor was very calm.
Zhuo Hua God agreed with a smile: "But for young people, more training and tempering isn't a bad thing, even the best materials need refining and hammering to become true treasures."
"Is that so for Qionghua Divine as well?" asked Qin Se Emperor.
Zhuo Hua God: "… She just wants to repay a favor."
"Really?" asked Qin Se Emperor.
"What else?" Zhuo Hua God said: "Would it be because she's taken a liking to that young one from the high-dimensional races?"
"You should ask your big brother," Qin Se Emperor answered indifferently, turning to leave with her lyre in tow.
Zhuo Hua God grumbled to himself internally.
He had always advised his sister that with such good experience, it would be a pity not to return to the Earthly Branch Chaos Realm for another attempt.
But she had gracefully declined each time.
And yet!
When Wang Ye applied, he saw his sister's name on the application list!
It's tough to retain a grown woman!
Now the sister had grown up, and a stranger's words weighed more than her own brother's!
But to be fair,
Qin Se Emperor was right; the mission to Earthly Branch Chaos Realm this time was extremely difficult, with virtually no chance of success.
Mainly for tempering.
"Do come back safely, little sister," Zhuo Hua God thought to himself.

Chaos Spacetime Shuttle.
Wang Ye and his group of five sat together.
"You all must have gone through the data about Earthly Branch Chaos Realm," Wang Ye's gaze swept over them, Lan Diewu and Lan Yingti, two sisters, nodded slightly, while Slaughter Emperor had a cold demeanor and said nothing.
Well, he definitely hadn't read it.
"It doesn't matter," Wang Ye said to himself, "Let Sister Qiong first share some experiences with everyone."
The two women's gaze instantly turned towards Qionghua Divine, filled with admiration and reverence.
This was a true Chaos God!
And from the Jade Beauty Divine Race no less!
Qionghua Divine smiled slightly, "Actually, it has been quite a while since I came back from Earthly Branch Chaos Realm. I missed the second and third occurrences of the Rare Divine Core."
"But to talk about experiences, I still have some..."
Immediately, Qionghua Divine began to eloquently share what she knew.
The two women listened very attentively, even Slaughter Emperor perked up his ears.
Wang Ye had already done some investigation and understanding earlier.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have applied for this mission.
Earthly Branch Chaos Realm was like a big roulette, divided into twelve pieces.
It would turn once every twelve cosmic years,
One round equates to 144 cosmic years.
With each rotation, only the Earthly Branch Chaos Realm changes, while the position of individuals remains unchanged.
For instance, previously in the Rat Realm, after the spinning of the chaos disc, it transitioned into the Chou Niu Realm.
In another twelve years, it would shift to the Tiger Realm.
"So far, three Earthly Branch Realms have revealed opportunities, namely the You Chicken Realm, the Chen Long Realm, and the Chou Niu Realm," Qionghua Divine said, "The You Chicken Rare Divine Core was acquired by me, but whether the Chen Long and Chou Niu Rare Divine Cores have appeared, I am not sure."
"Chou Niu did appear," Wang Ye said. "I asked Zuo Qinqin, during their last Earthly Branch Chaos Realm mission, they witnessed the emergence of the Chou Niu Rare Divine Core."
"Then the Chen Long Rare Divine Core has likely already appeared as well," Qionghua Divine added. "It's just been taken into possession by some powerful figure."
"Which one will be next?" Slaughter Emperor inquired.
Wang Ye responded with a smile.
Although Brother Slaughter didn't favor reviewing detailed data, he captured the essence and reacted swiftly.
"It's uncertain; everyone is speculating," Wang Ye explained. "But there doesn't seem to be much pattern to the three Earthly Branch Realms; the only known factor is that opportunity bursts happen in the moment of the chaos disc's rotation."
"And that each opportunity burst happens after more than one full round."
"That means beyond 144 years."
Lan Diewu caught on, "So, whenever we enter the Earthly Branch Chaos Realm, opportunity could burst at any moment?"
"Correct," Wang Ye nodded. "But it might also take hundreds of years, yielding nothing."
"Because of the uncertainty of timing, all the strong ones and troops in the Earthly Branch Chaos Realm are now scattered all around exploring, making advance preparations."
"Waiting for the moment of opportunity burst to seize the initiative."
Slaughter Emperor understood, "It's all about betting on a judgment call."
Lan Diewu asked, "Which of the remaining nine Earthly Branch Realms is our target?"
"The You Chicken Realm," Wang Ye stated.
The four, including Qionghua Divine, exhibited puzzled expressions.
"Why?" Lan Diewu didn't understand, "Wasn't the You Chicken Realm the first to have a Rare Divine Core appear? How could another Divine Core possibly appear there?"
"What Wang Ye means is the Xu Dog Realm," Lan Yingti whispered. "When the opportunity burst occurs, we'll be transported from the You Chicken Realm to the Xu Dog Realm."
The three had a sudden realization.
"Why the Xu Dog Realm?" Slaughter Emperor asked, puzzled.
"It's just a wild guess," Wang Ye chuckled dryly. "After all, there's a one in nine chance, and don't you think the three Earthly Branch Realms that have been explored will definitely have the fewest people?"
The crowd nodded in agreement.
Realms that had been explored, with treasures and opportunities mostly taken, naturally wouldn't attract many looking for chances. Your next read awaits at empire
"So if the opportunity truly bursts in the Xu Dog Realm, there will be the least competition," Wang Ye explained. "Exploring now doesn't make much sense, at best familiarizing ourselves with the terrain; if we're extremely lucky, we might obtain a Divine Core."
"The reason for choosing the You Chicken Realm is also that Sister Qiong is familiar with it."
"She knows every inch of the territory and can help us adapt safely and swiftly to the environment of the Earthly Branch Chaos Realm."
"The twelve Earthly Branch Realms are all the same size and shape."
"As for the rest, since the You Chicken Realm was the first to experience the burst of opportunity, although the Rare Divine Core was taken by Sister Qiong, there might still be Ordinary Divine Cores left unclaimed."
"With Sister Qiong leading us expertly through familiar routes, who knows if we might stumble upon some luck?"
Lan Diewu and Lan Yingti, moved, nodded their heads, completely convinced.
This is the true genius of the Talent Garden!
In such a short time, he'd already clarified his thoughts and arranged everything; one couldn't help but be impressed.
With Wang Ye as their captain, they felt fully confident.
Qionghua Divine also smiled and nodded.
She actually didn't want to return to this perilous place.
But faced with Wang Ye's firm request, she couldn't refuse and joined him.
After all, when Wang Ye had seen her life in danger before, he had risked his own life to assist her.
Now, she couldn't just watch Wang Ye take risks without lifting a finger.
She wasn't expecting to obtain a Rare Divine Core.
She only hoped to bring Wang Ye and the other three safely back to the encampment.
Then, her mission would be accomplished.
...
They had reached the Earthly Branch Chaos Realm!
The rich chaos energy cloaked this innate chaos realm.
This is one of the three outstanding innate chaos realms exclusive to the Great Bliss Divine Domain.
One with the Heavenly Cycle Fortune Divine Realm.
Owing to its unique environment and the presence of Divine Cores.
It has always attracted a substantial number of cultivators to hone their skills and seek treasure.
Now, with continual bursts of opportunity, it had become the hottest region in the Great Bliss Divine Domain.
There were a considerable number of Chaos Gods, not to mention the strongest in the cosmic, visible everywhere!
Evolution points!
Loads of evolution points!
Wang Ye was thrilled, his blood boiling!
"Harmony is precious, avoid combat if possible, preserve strength," Qionghua Divine gently advised Wang Ye.
"Okay," Wang Ye casually responded.
As if!
This opportunity was not to be missed.
In other high-dimensional cosmic realms, not to mention whether there would be retribution for indiscriminate killing, just confronting each high-dimensional race alone wouldn't be easy.
Especially when they have the advantage of terrain, conquering one was not easy.
But now, numerous Cosmic Strongest Experts, caught isolated, rendered him eager to engage!
However, before he could even find a target,
Not far away, combat had already erupted loudly!
The power of Qionghua Divine Light Jade energy burst forth, fiercely battling with a Chaos God.
Wang Ye: ???
What happened to advocating peace?
Sister Qiong really...
Deeply knows my mind!
Come!
Let's have a grand fight!
