Chapter 535

The areas where the demon race lives are mainly in the Northern Desolate Domain belt of the Xuanling Star Domain, such as the Siyue Desolate Domain belt developed by the Red Star Empire.

There is also a portion that borders the Heavenly Demon Kingdom and the Wanhe Demon Kingdom; the section adjacent to the Empire is only thirty million star sectors long.

Venerable Bo Meng comes from the Ke Bo Domain of the Heavenly Demon Kingdom. Observing from the Dao-Manifestation layer, one would find that it is a dense, disc-shaped region composed of world-stars, star-lands,

void rivers, and cloud-mists.

When the Empire develops the Siyue Desolate Domain, every ancient road is inevitably equipped with a Frontier-Expanding Army, mainly to defend against the demon race. Back then, the Great Zhou's Wang Liang Star Sector on the Wolf Demon Road had clashed with the demon race.

If following the human race's general standards, a place like the Star-Hail Pass of the Great Ye Dynasty, with a spiritual energy index below 10, would already be considered the edge of the Desolate Domain belt.

However, the demon race's physique is generally more adaptable to harsh environments, and their criteria for judging the Desolate Domain are significantly different from those of the human race.

Outside the Star-Hail Pass, it is still considered a spiritual energy region, belonging to a place where one can survive. Theoretically speaking, the demon race's territory is much larger than the human race's.

However, the demon race is distributed quite loosely. Looking at it as a whole, the demon race's territory forms a line that surrounds the entire Xuanling Star Domain.

Even in the Chaotic Sea, there are demon races present.

However, the main forces of the demon race are the Ten Great Demon Kingdoms, and the supreme governing body is the Demon God Palace, which receives ascending demon races from all directions.

Because Bo Meng's status among the demon race is not low, he can use special void passages, and it only takes half a year to travel back and forth from the Origin Heavenly Palace.

Zhao Xing accepted Venerable Bo Meng's invitation and arrived at the Heavenly Demon Kingdom, one of the Ten Great Demon Kingdoms.

Venerable Bo Meng's territory is on the first layer of the Dao-Ancient layer corresponding to the capital of the Heavenly Demon Kingdom; this is a piece of land that has been forged.

Venerable Bo Meng is also wealthy; his wealth and status in the Heavenly Demon Kingdom are equivalent to the former Carlos family of the Empire.

"Brother Zhao, my place is not as exquisitely arranged as yours in the human race; please don't mind." Venerable Bo Meng brought Zhao Xing down to land.

"Where would you get that idea? I didn't come here to indulge in luxury. Brother Bo Meng, your place is quite good, and your taste is very unique."

Zhao Xing said this, but in reality, he had no compliments left for Venerable Bo Meng's taste.

Bo Meng's territory, its architectural style, and the arrangement of its magic arrays—everything developed in the direction of "bigger is better" and "more is good."

He didn't know where he had dug up four spiritual mountains. The soil of these spiritual mountains was of an extremely high grade, and the mountain range grade was also very high,

almost approaching a Dao-Manifestation Pulse.

However, they were just piled up randomly, and there was no organization to the earth veins and mountains at all.

The spiritual lake was the same. The Bo Meng Linghu, named after himself, could be called a sea in Zhao Xing's eyes.

He told Zhao Xing that the spiritual energy materials he collected were all thrown into the spiritual lake, letting them slowly evolve into treasures on their own. The main idea was that a quantitative change would lead to a qualitative change. Every ten thousand years, a treasure at the level of a supreme reincarnation Dao-weapon would be born from the spiritual lake.

The Sun Star and Moon Star shining on the territory also had their orbital paths determined by his own interests.

If he wanted to cultivate, the Sun and Moon stars would rise; if he didn't want to cultivate? Then they would hide beneath the land.

Venerable Bo Meng also proudly said that this could avoid waste and was a reasonable arrangement.

Zhao Xing looked at the incomparably heavy cloud layer over Bo Meng Lake to the east and couldn't help but be speechless.

"All the cloud-mists are piled up in the east, condensing without dispersing; the spiritual energy doesn't flow, and the celestial cycle only performs a small cycle. How is this reasonable?"

"The Yin and Yang stars are forcibly driven by magic arrays, and the interaction between the six celestial mists is only ten percent. The spiritual mountain in the far west isn't illuminated at all. How is this reasonable?"

"Clearly possessing such a good material environment foundation, yet not even having a single decent plant-type soldier species. A large number of Emperor-level plants have been raised into bloated fat men—"

Zhao Xing's vision was completely different now. In the past, he might not have been able to see it, but now that he was proficient in all three schools—Heavenly Time, Earthly Advantage, and True Self—he only needed a few casual glances to see that Venerable Bo Meng's creation of his territory was incomparably crude.

It was true that he was wealthy and invested enough spiritual energy resources, but it didn't achieve the effect it should have had at all.

At first, Zhao Xing didn't want to say much, but he couldn't stand Venerable Bo Meng constantly and proudly introducing this and that.

Finally, Zhao Xing couldn't hold back anymore.

As an expert, he really couldn't help but correct Venerable Bo Meng's views.

"Brother Bo Meng, forgive my bluntness, but the arrangement of your territory has some inappropriate aspects."

"Oh? How so?" Venerable Bo Meng asked.

"Take this purple-green bamboo forest as an example. The proper planting method should be to expand the root-to-soil ratio to about 4. Then you should get four times the amount of purple-green bamboo, and the quality would also increase by one or two stages."

"Lower the ratio of Wood, Metal, and Water, then..." Zhao Xing was just about to speak, but when he saw Venerable Bo Meng's expression, he stopped: "Well, if you want convenience, you can buy three sets of Earth-Hidden Qianji Arrays."

"If that doesn't work, digging three rivers from Bo Meng Lake and framing them according to a nine-grid layout would also work."

Venerable Bo Meng didn't understand, but he also realized that Zhao Xing was saying his arrangement was inappropriate and a huge waste.

However, at this time, Bo Meng's expression was a bit strange: "Brother Zhao, then you should meet my steward."

"The arrangement of my territory was done by her for me."

"Peng Wu Yue, come here quickly!"

"..." A middle-aged woman wearing a gray coir raincoat and carrying bamboo joints drilled out of the ground quickly.

Zhao Xing sized up Bo Meng's steward and found that although this person looked like a human, she was a demon who had transformed and disguised herself. In essence, she was still a demon, a "Demon Race Minister."

Peng Wu Yue's strength was not weak; she was at the Eighth Tribulation Emperor Realm.

"Peng Wu Yue, look who has come."

Peng Wu Yue obediently raised her head, and after seeing Zhao Xing, she was visibly stunned for a moment.

"You, you are Minister Zhao?"

"Indeed, it is I."

"Peng Wu Yue of the Heavenly Demon Kingdom pays respects to the Dao Master." Peng Wu Yue performed the salute again; following human etiquette, she performed the disciple's salute to Zhao Xing.

Zhao Xing was quite surprised: "What is the meaning of this?"

Bo Meng smiled: "Peng Wu Yue is a demon minister. She has studied your two great legal treatises and, because of this, passed her seventh true spirit tribulation, so it is not excessive for her to call you Dao Master."

Zhao Xing was stunned.

"In the Heavenly Demon Kingdom, many human laws and treatises are forbidden from spreading, but your two great legal treatises are not among them. There are many demon ministers who study them."

"Peng Wu Yue, tell Minister Zhao, what is your other identity?"

Peng Wu Yue was still kneeling, but she straightened her body and said with some pride: "Dao Master, I am the Vice President of the Yanxing Society in the Heavenly Demon Kingdom, and also the Vice President of the Earth-Change Society."

"I have been studying your legal treatises for three thousand two hundred years. Among the demon ministers in the Heavenly Demon Kingdom who have joined these two major organizations, there are over three thousand at the Reincarnation Realm, and countless at the Dao-Domain and Origin Realms."

Zhao Xing was a bit dazed.

He hadn't expected that after several thousand years, his two great legal treatises would have spread so widely, even having an audience among the demon race, with some demon ministers even honoring him as their master.

He had never instructed them to do so, but the organizations established by those believers had spontaneously helped him promote his work, pushing the brilliance of his legal treatises to many remote parts of the Xuanling Star Domain.

There were actually three thousand Reincarnation Realm demons in the Heavenly Demon Kingdom who honored him as their Dao Master?

Bo Meng smiled: "Peng Wu Yue, the environment of my territory was modified after you understood the two great legal treatises. Didn't you say it couldn't be improved anymore?"

"Now Minister Zhao is here, and he says your methods have problems."

"..."

Peng Wu Yue said without hesitation: "Venerable, that must be because my understanding is flawed. It is not that the Master's legal treatises have problems."

After saying this, she kowtowed respectfully again: "Please instruct me, Master."

Zhao Xing had long heard that the Heavenly Demon Kingdom was the most open-minded among the Ten Great Demon Kingdoms, inclusive and willing to absorb human magic and martial arts for cultivation. Seeing it with his own eyes today, he couldn't help but feel some emotion.

There is a reason why the demon race has been able to coexist with the human race for countless years without being exterminated.

"Get up. There is no reason to listen to a lecture while kneeling. Let's start with this bamboo forest."

"Yes." Peng Wu Yue stood up obediently and stood respectfully by Zhao Xing's side.

"Heaven and Earth are six-fold; Yin and Yang blend. Earth vein rotation is not about the higher the soil quality, the better. Excessively high-quality soil will lead to the earth veins not opening, the earth's energy unable to rise, and the heaven's energy having nowhere to land—"

"Small imbalances, accumulated over time, will all cause terrifying natural disasters."

"Master, but Bo Meng's territory has never had natural disasters."

"That is because natural disasters are divided into tangible and intangible ones."

"Life in this world of yours has always been in a state of deformed bloating, and its life essence has already changed;

it's just that the problems haven't been thoroughly exposed yet."

"Look at this purple-green bamboo. You can use the Condensation Method to urge its growth; see if it can still give birth to offspring?"

"Master, it can't—"

"Of course it can't. It has already begun to mutate naturally. You are raising purple-green bamboo, but now you have obtained another type of plant. Although from a general perspective, the quality hasn't decreased, this has already violated the original intention of planting. If sold, it would certainly be discounted."

"So that's how it is. We haven't had any problems selling them before. I suppose it's because the requirements of the Heavenly Demon Kingdom's ministers aren't that high."

Zhao Xing led Peng Wu Yue, walking and stopping along the way in Venerable Bo Meng's territory. Peng Wu Yue had never shown so many expressions of "sudden realization" in her entire life.

She had originally thought she had learned the two great legal treatises very thoroughly and could be considered the number one person in the Heavenly Demon Kingdom, but now she felt she was very ignorant.

Three years passed.

Zhao Xing pointed things out and changed the world in Bo Meng's territory.

Three years later, Venerable Bo Meng woke up from a nap in his palace and found that the territory had changed its appearance.

"Hiss~" Bo Meng greedily absorbed the spiritual energy outside the palace. This change was not a change in appearance, but a change from the root of the energy.

A gentle breeze brushed his face, and a feeling of comfort arose spontaneously.

He even felt that his demon saint body had become stronger. In this environment, he could exert higher combat power than usual!

"This Minister Zhao is a genius; it's no exaggeration," Bo Meng looked at the figure by the lake and couldn't help but marvel secretly.

"If he becomes a god, the effect he exerts will definitely be worth more than other gods."

Thinking of this, Bo Meng felt lucky that he had made the decision to invite Zhao Xing.

"Whoosh~"

Venerable Bo Meng flashed and arrived in a secluded small pavilion in the palace.

"How much longer will it take to finish the task I gave you?" Several shadows flickered in the pavilion: "Venerable Lord, capturing Jin Yan is a bit troublesome. He has a split-body technique; we must lock onto all his split bodies with causality, figure out the location of all his split bodies, and then move simultaneously. There cannot be the slightest mistake."

"Stop talking nonsense, I only want the result!"

Venerable Bo Meng was impatient to see his subordinates only talking about the difficulties and not the progress.

"I know Jin Yan is hard to catch, of course. He has a protection order signed by three other Venerables of the God Palace, and he is very good at hiding—"

"But what do I keep you fate-masters for?"

"Financial resources, material resources, secret files, relationship mediation—you can mobilize whatever you want—I just want you to lock Jin Yan in that gift box."

Venerable Bo Meng pointed to a pitch-black, large box.

A turtle demon nodded slowly: "Venerable Lord, within seven world-star years, we will definitely capture him."

"Good, then I will wait."

Bo Meng nodded and walked out again.

Six years later, in the Wanhe Demon Kingdom, in a remote star system, Jinxing City.

Inside the city, Jin Yan's main body was a bit restless.

"Ever since three years ago, I have been hiding in this remote Jinxing City, but this uncomfortable feeling in my heart has yet to fade."

"What on earth is wrong with me?"

Jin Yan kept drinking fine wine and teasing the beauty in his arms, but there was still no relief.

He pushed the beauty away in annoyance and put down his wine glass.

In the blink of an eye, a shadow suddenly appeared in the brightly lit hall.

"Whoosh."

A streak of sword light was reflected in Jin Yan's eyeballs.

Fast, too fast!

Jin Yan didn't even react before the sword light reached his life palace.

The Primordial Split-Body's distance-less teleportation can be interrupted and suppressed. Assuming an attack of over forty thousand units of measure, Jin Yan would be unable to react and would be controlled.

Anyone capable of this level must be a demigod above the eleventh stage, or a demigod holding a divine artifact.

Because he also had a divine artifact, utilizing the characteristics of the Primordial Split-Body, it was normal for Jin Yan to accumulate one or two divine artifacts while adventuring in major secret realms.

However, he couldn't move now!

The soul bodies in his main body's life palace were all bound by thread-like sword energy.

"Don't move."

It wasn't until he had already been subdued that Jin Yan saw the shadow clearly.

"Venerable Qing Yao?!"

Jin Yan was shocked. This was a demon demigod of the Heavenly Demon Kingdom; why would he come to capture him?

"Venerable Qing Yao, I don't know where I have offended you. My Venerable Lord, Venerable 'Peng Bei', has even attended the Demon God Banquet with you."

Jin Yan knew he couldn't resist, so he could only bring out the most powerful of the three demon venerables he relied on to intimidate Venerable Qing Yao.

"You, a traitor to the human race, dare to use Venerable Peng Bei to pressure me?" The fur on Venerable Qing Yao's cheeks trembled, and his vertical eyes flashed with mockery. "Stop thinking about it; even if you call his name, he can't sense it now."

"Collect!"

When Venerable Qing Yao collected Pu Yan's main body, in the demon territory, all thirteen thousand plus of Pu Yan's split-soul bodies were also captured at the same time.

Jin Yan was locked into a black box, which possessed a vast space.

He saw his split-soul bodies and straw man shells being thrown in one after another, and couldn't help but be shocked.

Because this was already incomparably close to the number of all his split-soul bodies.

A month later, Jin Yan already felt the severity of the situation.

"Who on earth has such great energy to be able to capture all thirteen thousand plus of my split bodies in such a short time?"

"Now I only have three split bodies left, stored in the hands of the three Venerables."

The last three split bodies were Jin Yan's life-saving talismans.

As long as those three split bodies weren't captured, even if his so-called main body was destroyed, he could still be reborn from the memories of the split souls.

Back then, when he cultivated the Primordial Straw Man Technique, he had this one extra function compared to Zuo Zuo Qiyu, which was why Jin Yan thought he was stronger than Zuo Zuo Qiyu and had the heart to defect from the Empire.

"The three Venerables have sworn an oath; they will definitely protect me."

"Those three split bodies of mine absolutely cannot be captured."

Although Jin Yan was shocked, he wasn't panicked.

This was the reliance of the Primordial Straw Man Technique; even demigods couldn't thoroughly kill him.

And as long as he could live, Jin Yan could eventually cultivate his way back.

"I want to see who on earth dares to offend the three Venerables of the Demon God Palace at the same time—what?!"

Jin Yan suddenly froze.

Because he saw a streak of light flash through the darkness, as if the box was opening and closing rapidly.

Two more split bodies were thrown in; they were exactly two of the ones he had placed with the three Venerables in the Demon God Palace.

"My god, what, what is going on?"

Jin Yan began to feel a bit afraid.

The tenth year of Zhao Xing coming to the demon territory.

"Whoosh~"

On this day, Venerable Bo Meng suddenly appeared by the lake, followed by a large box.

"Brother, I want to give you a gift."

"Give me a gift? Brother Bo Meng, you don't have to be so polite—" Zhao Xing subconsciously wanted to refuse; he didn't want to accept favors easily. "You really don't want it? Inside is Jin Yan," Venerable Bo Meng patted the box.

"What?" Zhao Xing was stunned, "Jin Yan?"

"Yes, and it's all of Jin Yan," Venerable Bo Meng blinked, "You have been a guest in my territory for ten years,

and I haven't entertained you well—instead, you have been busy for me for ten years, changing the world."

"So, I simply spent some effort to help you capture Jin Yan."

"All of Jin Yan?" Zhao Xing was a bit dazed, "He was captured by you so easily?"

"It was a bit hard to catch," Bo Meng was also a bit emotional, "A tiny Emperor-level demon has three split souls hidden in the hands of three Venerables of the Demon God Palace."

"I also paid a price, asking my teacher to help lift the divine contract, only then did I get Jin Yan's split bodies from the last Venerable. Otherwise, this guy would have been resurrected again."

"Lifting the divine contract? Brother Bo Meng, the price you paid must not have been small." Zhao Xing was surprised.

"Hahaha, not big, not big, small matter." Venerable Bo Meng laughed on the surface, but inwardly he was wearing a mask of pain.

The price of capturing Jin Yan ended up being raised again and again, far exceeding his initial plan.

Because although Jin Yan was weak, he had obtained the protection of three Venerables of the Demon God Palace, and that was a protection signed with a divine contract!

To capture Jin Yan, one had to give face to the three Venerables, and one had to lift the divine contract.

Rob him by force? That would be slapping their faces, forcing them to break their contract, and the three Venerables would die to protect Jin Yan.

But if the contract was lifted, the three Venerables would have no reason not to give face to Bo Meng, the direct disciple of the Demon God.

Afterward, Bo Meng asked his teacher to intervene to lift the divine contract, and Bo Meng owed the three Venerables another favor, not to mention the treasures given to Venerable Qing Yao and others who were dispatched. This entire operation, calculated together, was no different from paying for two divine objects.

Just having his teacher intervene was enough to be worth one divine object!

But the bluff he had put on, he had to finish even if he had to grit his teeth.

Venerable Bo Meng was now pretending to be lighthearted, but in reality, his heart was aching.

"Many thanks, Brother Bo Meng, I will remember this favor." Zhao Xing bowed and saluted.

A causal line was generated, and he actively sensed it, discovering that the price Bo Meng paid was indeed very heavy.

If Zhao Xing had done it himself, could two divine objects have done it? Even if he doubled it, he would be lucky to succeed.

After all, this was the demon territory; how could he get a demon Venerable to give him face and release someone?

And then finding a god to lift it, that was even harder. Gods are different from gods; the contract of a demon god, going to find a human god to solve it, this involves the issue of ownership, which is too troublesome.

Zhao Xing staying here was actually trying to find a way to see if there was any way to lure Jin Yan into a life-and-death duel.

He hadn't expected Bo Meng to solve this worry for him directly.

"Hahaha, no problem, no problem." Bo Meng saw Zhao Xing accept the favor and immediately smiled.

If Zhao Xing could accept this causal favor, it would be worth it in the long run.

"He is handed over to you." Bo Meng patted the box and disappeared.

"Jin Yan."

Zhao Xing couldn't sense Pu Yan's existence at all, which showed that the box was also a treasure.

Whoosh~

He patted the box and drilled inside.

Entering the black box space, Zhao Xing's feeling was incomparably intense.

"Boom~~~"

The Primordial Straw Man Technique triggered the manifestation of the Great Dao, automatically pointing the way.

Zhao Xing found over ten thousand Jin Yans in the black box space.

"So it was you?!"

Jin Yan understood immediately after seeing Zhao Xing enter.

In fact, he had vaguely guessed it, but he wasn't sure if it was Zuo Zuo Qiyu or Zhao Xing who was taking action.

"It is I."

"Jin Yan, we finally meet."

A murderous intent surged in Zhao Xing's heart. This murderous intent was very strong; with his twelfth-stage demigod cultivation, he still couldn't completely suppress it. As for Jin Yan, he had long since rushed over with red eyes.

"Go to hell!"

Jin Yan's countless split-soul bodies rushed toward Zhao Xing like locusts, quickly submerging him.

However, a moment later, a strong black light erupted from the pile of Jin Yans.

Mental Will Technique, Great Dark Heaven!

With one thought, Zhao Xing controlled all the Jin Yans.

"Don't be in such a hurry to die." Zhao Xing's eyes were cold. "You still have value."

"Boom!!"

Jin Yan attempted to self-destruct, but soon he lost this ability.

The gap between Zhao Xing and him was too great. In the end, Jin Yan only managed to explode three relatively weak split bodies before all of them were frozen in place.

"Why, why were you able to become a demigod?" Jin Yan was a bit unwilling. He and Zuo Zuo Qiyu hadn't become demigods, yet Zhao Xing had.

"Logically, you cultivated the Primordial Straw Man Technique; this path would become your entire Dao. You couldn't have become a demigod through other means."

"That's because your vision is too low and you are too ignorant," Zhao Xing sneered.

No matter how strong the uniqueness of the Primordial Straw Man Technique is, can it be stronger than the blockade of the God King Gu Xiao?

Even the Heavenly Time Great Dao has ways to be thought of, let alone the Great Sun Sea, and even more so the Primordial Straw Man Technique?

Of course, Zhao Xing didn't find this glimmer of life on his own, but entered that unique secret realm of the Seal-Zen Land.

He speculated that Yuan's Bone Dao had a higher priority than the Straw Man Dao created by Gu Fu Tianyang. In that special place, it was possible to ignore this drawback.

"How is it possible, how could it be—" Jin Yan muttered to himself, but soon he fell into a deep sleep.

The Desire-Dream Technique descended unknowingly, and he entered a dream.

A year later, Zhao Xing walked out of the black box space. At this time, the box was already empty, and Jin Yan no longer existed.

The moment Zhao Xing walked out, he immediately sensed something.

A Great Dao appeared before his eyes. The phantom of Jin Yan, which had originally been on his left, began to slowly shatter.

【C】

"Hum~"

The phantom of Jin Yan's Great Dao shattered, flying toward Zhao Xing and Zuo Zuo Qiyu respectively.

At this moment, Zuo Zuo Qiyu turned around abruptly, looking at Zhao Xing and the shattering Jin Yan in shock.

"Senior Zuo, move aside!"

Zhao Xing let out a low roar, grew larger, and took a step.

After his figure grew larger, he began to receive the power after Jin Yan shattered.

Zhao Xing felt that he had surpassed Zuo Zuo Qiyu by half a step.

Just as he was about to implement a complete step, he paused.

There was no path ahead; it was a chaotic darkness.

Zhao Xing discovered that the half-step he had taken was composed of the shattered phantom of Jin Yan's Great Dao.

At the same time, Zuo Zuo Qiyu, who was half a body behind him, still stood firmly on this path, forming a powerful attractive force that pulled at him.

"Still not enough?"

Zhao Xing looked at the abyss shrouded in chaotic mist and withdrew his raised foot.

He was not sure if he could see clearly ahead, nor did he know if his leap of life and death could jump over the unknown chaos,

crossing the abyss.

"Zhao Xing, return to the Origin World." Zuo Zuo Qiyu's voice came from behind. "Having Jin Yan pave the way for you is not enough."

Zhao Xing turned his head and met Zuo Zuo Qiyu's firm gaze, but he quickly moved to Zhao Xing's feet.

"I said long ago that there would be such a day."

"Come, I challenge you to a Great Dao Dispute!"

【C】

"Please accept my challenge!"

Zhao Xing looked at Zuo Zuo Qiyu, not doubting that as long as he agreed, he could logically kill Zuo Zuo Qiyu.

Perhaps then he could truly let the Primordial Straw Man take a step further and become a god-level legal treatise.

"Senior Zuo, I refuse."

Zhao Xing shook his head gently.

Zuo Zuo Qiyu's eyes twitched, but then he shouted sternly: "Bastard, you look down on me?!"

"Yes."

Zuo Zuo Qiyu, who had prepared a set of rhetoric, was instantly speechless.

How could he have the same temperament as the Five Poisons?!

"You pity me? Coward!" Zuo Zuo Qiyu's eyes spat fire.

"Now I am much stronger than you." Zhao Xing turned around and continued to stare at the abyss shrouded in chaotic mist, leaving only a side profile for Zuo Zuo Qiyu.

"You..." Zuo Zuo Qiyu also calmed down slightly. He didn't understand why Zhao Xing didn't choose this easy method.

Clearly having seen hope, killing Pu Yan did indeed allow him to take half a step further; why not continue to kill himself?

"Killing the weak to achieve the Great Dao is perhaps Pu Yan's Dao, and Gu Fu Tianyang's Dao, but—it is not my Dao." Zhao Xing's voice came. "Besides—Senior Zuo, don't you think this method is very evil?"

Zuo Zuo Qiyu's expression became serious: "What on earth do you mean?"

"When you were the only one here, you felt no progress, so you cultivated a successor."

"After you cultivated a successor, you felt you could kill the successor to progress again." Zhao Xing looked down at his feet.

"With my true spirit observation, the phantom of Jin Yan's Great Dao shattered; two-tenths were absorbed by me, one-tenth became the road under my feet, and you, you gained almost nothing."

"Then, where did the remaining seven-tenths go?"

Zuo Zuo Qiyu's pupils shrank, but he didn't make a sound, because this possibility was somewhat unbelievable.

"I will return to the Origin World to see you, but it will never be to fight you."

"Please, Senior Zuo, do not do anything extreme."

After saying this, Zhao Xing ended this Great Dao communication.

"Brother Zhao, you've come out." Venerable Bo Meng appeared at the right time.

"Yes, many thanks, Brother Bo Meng, for settling a wish of mine," Zhao Xing thanked him.

"Didn't I say, no need to thank me? Besides, you've already thanked me," Bo Meng said politely.

"You have indeed done me a huge favor." Zhao Xing recalled the scene he had just seen.

"Hahaha, you are too polite, hahaha." Bo Meng laughed. He was even a bit embarrassed; did he really do the right thing this time? Zhao Xing was actually so satisfied.

Zhao Xing was of course satisfied!

Because after killing Pu Yan, he discovered that Wei Ling Tianchen's speculation was very likely correct.

"Gu Luohe said his father not only took away his brother Gu Fu Tianyang, but also took away the origin of the Heavenly Time Great Dao."

"How could Gu Fu Tianyang be mentioned in the same breath as the origin of the Heavenly Time Great Dao?"

Zhao Xing recalled a question he had once asked Gu Luohe: What is the ultimate goal of the Primordial Straw Man?

Gu Luohe's answer was: "Primordial Universe, True God without Tribulation."

Combined with what he saw today, he had a new speculation.

"Only those who attain the Dao through Heaven and Earth are True Gods without Tribulation, so the Primordial Straw Man is Gu Fu Tianyang's method of attaining the Dao through Heaven and Earth!"

"Assuming Gu Fu Tianyang is not dead, then every time a generation cultivates the Primordial Straw Man Technique, a force will be sacrificed to him."

"Those who can cultivate the Primordial Straw Man are the most talented people of their generation. Generation after generation, how much of their Dao has he absorbed? I don't know his specific method yet. However, no matter what the method is, there is a very important question here: If Gu Fu Tianyang doesn't live in the current generation, how can he receive the sacrificed power? How can the method of attaining the Dao through Heaven and Earth be effective?"

"Could it be that he lives in the current generation?"

Zhao Xing felt that Gu Fu Tianyang was still alive and living in the current generation. This news was something even Gu Luohe didn't know, and perhaps it could earn him some contribution points.

However, he still needed to return to the Origin World to figure out where Zuo Zuo Qiyu had learned the secret technique back then.

"Figuring this out is very important to me; otherwise, even if I drive the god-level straw man, I won't dare to use it with peace of mind." Thinking of this, Zhao Xing immediately stood up and said goodbye to Bo Meng.
