Chapter 85

When Zhou Yu was fighting the three great Dao Ancestors of the Avici Gate.

At the same time, the outside world fell into utter chaos; originally, the experts of Nüwa's camp had come to rescue people, but they were obstructed by the experts of the Avici camp.

But at this moment, it turned into the Avici camp wanting to rescue people, while the experts of Nüwa's camp began to obstruct.

Boom!

This great world suddenly shuddered violently, and a green-haired, red-robed figure appeared there.

It was precisely the Wind Demon who had not shown himself before.

"Wind Demon? You dare come out of your lair? Aren't you afraid we'll destroy your nest?" Sui Ren and the others stared at the Wind Demon, speaking in a low voice.

"All the True Gods and True Immortals of the Myriad Demon Realm are currently inside my Cave Heaven Treasure; if you want a decisive battle, we'll accompany you." The Wind Demon then swooped toward the direction of the Kuafu Army Camp.

"Are we afraid of you?" Sui Ren sneered.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Numerous methods of the Nüwa camp bombarded the Wind Demon, but his speed was too great; nothing could really stop him.

Whoosh!

The Wind Demon swiftly reached the vicinity of Zhou Yu's laid formation, the Spacetime Pool, without the slightest hesitation, and swooped straight in.

Seeing this, Sui Ren furrowed his brow.

The Wind Demon is indeed very troublesome; even if he chose to reveal his full strength, it would probably still be impossible to stop him.

In this Great Tribulation, he fears none of the other methods of the Avici Gate, but only the Wind Demon gives people a headache.

On the other side of the Spacetime Pool.

Huh?

Zhou Yu naturally detected immediately that someone had entered the Spacetime Pool.

"Is this the Wind Demon?" Zhou Yu observed the opponent, whose aura was extraordinarily vast and mighty, far surpassing any True God or Dao Ancestor.

The Wind Demon is actually the sole Ancestor God openly acknowledged in the Three Realms at present.

Although there are still several Ancestor Gods hidden in the shadows, the one openly acknowledged is indeed just this one.

"How is it, Demon Hand?" the Wind Demon gazed toward the distant Demon Hand Dao Ancestor.

"I'm fine," the Demon Hand Dao Ancestor shook his head.

Zhou Yu's true self and second divine soul were only slightly stronger than her; if it were a prolonged siege, they could indeed hope to kill her, but the Wind Demon arrived too quickly, and in this brief span she would not yet be unable to hold out.

"Wind Demon, if you want to rescue the Demon Hand Dao Ancestor, you must first break my formation," Zhou Yu said.

"Let's try," the Wind Demon said without further words, his body moving as he flew straight toward the Demon Hand Dao Ancestor.

"Change!"

At this moment, a thought moved Zhou Yu, and he began to control the space and time here, causing them to change.

However, as the Wind Demon erupted, the distance between him and the Demon Hand Dao Ancestor was indeed rapidly shrinking.

"What incredible speed." Zhou Yu secretly marveled.

He relies on the combination of time and space; within this formation, space is infinitely stretched and the flow of time constantly changes, whereas the Wind Demon combines space with wind, making him pure speed.

No matter how Zhou Yu stretches space or alters time, the Wind Demon relies on his speed to swiftly close in on the Demon Hand Dao Ancestor.

"The Wind Demon is indeed heaven-defying; relying only on my two avatars, I cannot stop him." Zhou Yu quickly realized this in his heart.

"Forget it, today's gains are enough; let's stop here." Zhou Yu understood clearly that unless he exposed more avatars, it would indeed be difficult today to kill the Demon Hand Dao Ancestor.

But Zhou Yu understood that now was not the time to expose his avatars.

In the Great Tribulation of the Three Realms, the Demon Hand Dao Ancestor is not important; what matters are the Source Old Man and the Lord of Heart Demons, for they are the true masterminds.

The Lord of Heart Demons, in order to break free from the Celestial Dao, plotted to have the two major camps slaughter each other.

The Source Old Man is even more terrifying; not only is his own strength extremely great, but he also relies on mental techniques to control a multitude of True Gods and Dao Ancestors in the Three Realms, and such a presence lurking in the shadows makes one have to be on guard.

"Moreover, even if not for the Great Tribulation, but just for myself, now is not the time to expose my avatars," Zhou Yu thought.

He still hopes that the two major camps will eventually engage in a decisive battle, so that he can reap the maximum amount of primordial energy.

Expose his avatars now?

Whether the Dao Ancestors of the Avici camp still have the courage for a decisive battle is hard to say.

Once they decide to flee, with the Wind Demon's speed, who could catch up?

After Zhou Yu lifted the formation's obstruction, the Wind Demon soon swooped to appear beside the Demon Hand Dao Ancestor, whose face had turned somewhat pale.

"Demon Hand, go first into my Cave Heaven Treasure," the Wind Demon said, waving his hand and taking the Demon Hand Dao Ancestor inside.

At this moment, the surrounding Spacetime Pool was rapidly disintegrating.

Splash! Splash! Splash!

Numerous dark-silver "Void Abyss Chaos Water" fell down, collected by Zhou Yu, and that purple crescent moon also revealed its true form, landing in Zhou Yu's hand.

It was a deep purple jade stone in the shape of a crescent moon, named the "Moon Sundial Strange Stone," a treasure Zhou Yu had scavenged from the World Prison.

Without these two marvels, Zhou Yu could still form the Spacetime Pool formation with pure magical power, but its power would be much diminished.

"Qian Yu Tian Shen, no, you should now be called Qian Yu Dao Ancestor," the Wind Demon stared at Zhou Yu and said:

"With your strength and realm, you actually slaughtered True Gods and True Immortals in the inter-realm war—don't you feel ashamed?"

"I wasn't a Dao Ancestor from the start; I only broke through later. Moreover, I never used Dao Ancestor power on the battlefield, so what difference does it make whether I became one or not?" Zhou Yu said calmly.

"On the contrary, you sent the Dark Light Sword Master, the Shadowless Dao Ancestor, and the Demon Hand Dao Ancestor three to assassinate me—isn't that also aimed at killing a True God or True Immortal? Don't you feel ashamed?"

"But the Dark Light and the Shadowless instead died at your hands," the Wind Demon said coldly.

"They came to kill me, so I naturally had to kill them!" Zhou Yu said calmly: "If you hadn't come, the Demon Hand Dao Ancestor would have died just the same!"

"Alright, then let me test your abilities." A black long spear instantly appeared in the Wind Demon's hand.

Pfft!

The long spear tore through the air, and Zhou Yu's true self and second divine soul simultaneously controlled their treasures to meet it.

Feng Mo, Qian Yu, Zhou Yu, the second primordial spirit, and the Ancestor God, including the top-tier Ancestor God.

It says "Feng Mo."

At this moment, a furious roar suddenly came.

It mentions Sui Ren Shi and a wooden staff.

It says "Feng Mo, do as you will."

It mentions the Tathagata Buddha.

It says "Kill!"

It mentions a Sanqing Daoist.

It mentions the three great leaders, the Master of Huanmu, and three people, noting that the Master of Huanmu is ultimately only one and, without revealing himself, is already an Ancestor God.

Previously, Zhou Yu actively dispelled the Spacetime Pool, not to weaken himself, but to meet with the strong ones of the Nüwa camp outside.

It mentions Zhou Yu's true form, the second primordial spirit, the five great leaders, and Feng Mo.

He no longer lingered, but chose to swoosh and swiftly retreat.

It mentions Wind Demon, the Master of Huanmu, the True God Dao Ancestors of the Avici Sect, the True God, the Dao Ancestor, and notes the Avici Sect.

It mentions both sides.

It mentions Sui Ren Shi, the Three Purities, the Tathagata, and Feng Mo.

It mentions the Dao Ancestor and the Qi Luck Contention.

It mentions Feng Mo, Qian Yu, and Sui Ren Shi.

Moreover, you indeed sent a Dao Ancestor to assassinate Qian Yu; could it be that you already knew his true strength beforehand?

It mentions Suiren, the Master of Huanmu, the Envoy of All Things, Shadowless, Dark Light, and treasure.

It says "That's impossible."

It says "Stop the nonsense, fight if you want."

It mentions the Nüwa Camp and the Envoy of All Things.

It mentions the Nüwa Camp, Zhou Yu, and the leader tier.

If they were to really battle now, their odds of winning would undoubtedly surge greatly.

It mentions the Nüwa Camp, Chaos, Shen Nong Shi, Fu Xi Shi, and Gong Gong, noting they are mythological figures.

For example, Shennong, Fuxi, Gonggong, etc.

It mentions the Qi Luck Contention, the Nüwa Camp, and Heaven and Earth power.

It mentions the Avici Camp and the ancient ruins world.

It mentions the Three Realms and neutral forces.

It mentions the Four Ancestors of the Source River.

It mentions the two great camps.

Otherwise, if they ended up both losing, they might instead be taken advantage of by a third party, which nobody would want to see.

However, overall, at this moment the Nameless Gate still lacks confidence more.

It mentions state and strength.

Thus, the Nameless camp not only suffered heavy losses, but negotiations at this moment are also suppressed.

It mentions the Dao Ancestors of the Avici Sect.

"If you're not benevolent, then don't blame us for being unrighteous; let's meet again on the battlefield." Wind Demon and the Owner of Huanmu, etc., quickly stopped lingering, knowing further lingering was pointless.

It mentions the True God Dao Ancestors of the Avici Camp.

I don't know what other tricks they have?" Many strong ones on the Nüwa side are worried.

When soldiers come, we block them; when water comes, we earth it." Sui Ren Shi calmly spoke.

The Nameless camp will definitely bring out whatever tricks they have, regardless of whether this incident happened; they simply counter each move.

。。。(ellipsis) none.

It mentions the Realm of Chasing the Sun.

It mentions the Nüwa Camp and Zhou Yu.

If Zhou Yu is simply strong enough, or even if he has become a True God, that could have many possible causes.

It mentions the Dao Ancestor.

It mentions the Celestial Dao.

It mentions Celestial Dao induction.

It mentions the Celestial Dao.

It mentions the Three Realms and the Chaos foreign tribe.

It mentions Zhou Yu.

It mentions the Three Realms and the Celestial Dao.

It mentions Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu's silence made the interior of the Nüwa camp feel rather solemn; normally it would be fine, but in such a Great Tribulation, an unclear identity is indeed a major problem.

However, the Nüwa camp at this moment, while having some doubts about Zhou Yu's identity, hasn't reached the point where they must get to the bottom of it.

One thing is certain: Zhou Yu is definitely on the opposing side of the Nameless camp.

It mentions the Avici Sect, Heavenly Immortals, Loose Immortals, and Heavenly God True Immortals.

It mentions Zhou Yu, the Dark Light Sword Master, the Wuying Dao Ancestor, and the Avici Sect.

It mentions Zhou Yu and the Avici Camp.

If one were to say Zhou Yu is the chaotic alien race that caused this Great Tribulation, then no one would believe it.

If Zhou Yu really is a Chaos alien race, why is he so eager to reveal his strength? Wouldn't it be better to hide and wait for the two major factions to fight each other to mutual destruction?

Choosing to reveal himself this early makes no sense at all.

So, although Zhou Yu ultimately said nothing, the powerful ones of Nüwa's faction still trust him.

But everyone speculates that Zhou Yu's true identity may involve some secret that cannot be spoken, just as Jue Ming never mentions the Moon Under Pool.

Of course, the most crucial point is still Zhou Yu's strength; at this moment he doesn't want to answer, and no one can make him answer.

This is actually also the biggest reason Zhou Yu chose to erupt again.

His true form and second primordial spirit in the Three Realms are merely two inconspicuous avatars of his; he has many other avatars, all possessing such strength.

With strength comes confidence; he need not answer anyone about anything.

Fangcun Mountain.

Whoosh!

A spacetime vortex appeared, and Patriarch Bodhi returned here.

"Bodhi dao friend, I already told you, you don't need to rush to go." Zhou Yu's You Cang avatar's divine power incarnation was still here; seeing Patriarch Bodhi return, he spoke directly.

"Dao Ancestor Qian Yu's strength, You Cang, you indeed already knew it. His identity—can you really not leak it?" Patriarch Bodhi asked.

"I can't say; even when Sui Ren's people asked me, I didn't say." Zhou Yu shook his head.

"You already knew his strength, then what's your relationship with him

"In name only, master and disciple." Zhou Yu said.

"I see." Patriarch Bodhi understood, just like his relationship with Hou Yi, which was also only nominal master-disciple; he had never taught Hou Yi.

Patriarch Bodhi knew Zhou Yu didn't want to speak, so he didn't ask further.

In fact, although Zhou Yu's true form and second primordial spirit's identities are somewhat unclear, his You Cang avatar has truly never been suspected.

After all, this avatar of his truly rose in ancient times, with a complete growth trajectory.

As a member of the ancient human race, he counts as a core member of Nüwa's faction.

"This Dao Ancestor Qian Yu is probably nine out of ten from Chaos."

In a small world of the Three Realms that has not yet been drawn into the war, an old man who looked like Yuan Lao Ren was fishing.

Although he appeared leisurely, his network of informants spread throughout the Three Realms, making him fully aware of anything happening within the Three Realms.

Zhou Yu displayed strength of a leader level, which surprised Yuan Lao Ren, but he still didn't take it seriously.

On the contrary, Yuan Lao Ren guessed Zhou Yu's identity, thinking he, like himself, came from Chaos.

Given Yuan Lao Ren's experience, he naturally knows that many gods and demons, after their home worlds suffer great destruction, wander outward; sometimes they encounter another Chaos world where they settle, and then regard this source world as a second homeland.

That's because the Three Realms are relatively remote, making such a situation rare; placed in some open Chaos worlds of the Great Mo Domain, this is actually completely normal—an open Chaos world could not possibly consist entirely of native powerhouses.

This also perfectly explains why he would so wholeheartedly devote himself to Nüwa's faction.

"Foolish, too foolish!" Yuan Lao Ren couldn't help shaking his head:

"To become a second‑grade Ancestral Immortal, one must have seen some of the world; yet he sincerely throws in his lot with a bunch of natives."

…

"However, with this Dao Ancestor Qian Yu, the Wu Jian faction will be even less able to compete with the Nüwa faction; it seems I'll ultimately have to join them." This thought flashed again in Yuan Lao Ren's mind.

What he most wants to see is both sides suffering mutual destruction; he has always remained neutral precisely to balance the two sides' strength.

If the Nüwa faction is strong, he joins the Wu Jian faction; if the Wu Jian faction is strong, he joins the Nüwa faction; if the two sides are evenly matched, he temporarily leaves the Three Realms, waiting for them to fight to the bitter end before returning.

"No rush, let's wait and see." Yuan Lao Ren thought.

The issue of Zhou Yu's identity is something the True God Dao Ancestors consider; as for those below the True God Dao Ancestors, with the various details of the Sun‑chasing Realm War spreading out, everyone just feels it's absurd and unbelievable.

The heavenly gods who were still fighting on the realm war battlefield the day before became beings comparable to the leaders of the Buddhist and Daoist sects the next day—simply absurd.

Especially many heavenly gods and true immortals who had once fought side by side with Zhou Yu felt even more unbelievable.

Although Zhou Yu had previously shown extremely strong strength, his status comparable to that of True God Dao Ancestors, the gap to the leader level was still too great!

Ji Ning, who was traveling the Three Realms honing his swordsmanship, was among the later to hear this news; upon hearing other heavenly gods and true immortals mention it, he too was stunned.

"My master is a being comparable to the leaders of the Buddhist and Daoist sects? No mistake, right?"

"Haha, Bei Ming dao friend, definitely no mistake." The heavenly god and true immortal who brought the news laughed.

"The Wu Jian Sect's Wuying Dao Ancestor and An'guang Sword Master—what great reputations they had! Both were slain by Dao Ancestor Qian Yu; now this is common knowledge, you'll know it with just a little inquiry."

And Ji Ning, after a little inquiry, also quickly learned that this matter was indeed true.

At this point Ji Ning also became an object of envy for many heavenly gods and true immortals of the Three Realms, after all his two teachers: one, Patriarch Bodhi, is a renowned master who taught numerous disciples of great fame; the other teacher is even a leader‑level powerful being.

Such an opportunity rivals that of Lü Dongbin back then.

"The Chaos Essence Liquid needed to cultivate the Tao Wu Eighteen Demons and Gods is probably also lent to me by my master himself borrowing the name of the You Cang True God." Ji Ning fully understood.

Meanwhile, as the Three Realms buzzed with commotion, Zhou Yu's true form and second primordial spirit were alone wandering about in the Three Realms.

He had never properly taken a look at the Three Realms.

Now that he finally had some free time, he also prepared to go around and have a look.

Of course, it's just that these two avatars of his are somewhat idle, while his other avatars are still striving to improve; after all, although his strength has secured a place in the Great Tribulation, facing the true mastermind behind the scenes still requires greater caution.

Time flowed on, and before he knew it, another hundred years had passed.

During those hundred years, all of Zhou Yu's true form avatars and all of his second primordial spirit avatars became True Gods; the difficulty from Heavenly God to True God is relatively small, Zhou Yu has multiple talent bonuses, and also possesses the incomparably perfect method of the Withered World God; as long as he wishes to break through, it comes naturally.

Zhou Yu also had one of his true form avatars enter the Heaven‑Observing Taihao Tower, within which he sought the opportunity to become an Ancestor God.

On this day a hundred years later.

Within the World Prison, one of Zhou Yu's avatars who had been contemplating the mysteries of the spacetime Dao opened his eyes.

"The third method of the spacetime Dao is also nearing completion." Zhou Yu thought.

Over the past hundred years, he has both studied the spacetime Dao and contemplated the formation Dao; the formation Dao has steady progress thanks to referencing the formations in that mysterious space, while the spacetime Dao progressed quickly at first and then slowed.

At first his progress was rapid because Zhou Yu, after comprehending the opposition of time and space to the Celestial Dao, had the exquisite time‑space combination of top‑tier Ancestor God level as a reference.

Based on this, his method "Tan Ying" quickly improved considerably, and his realm also swiftly reached the top‑tier Ancestor God level; in terms of time‑space traversal ability, Zhou Yu had already surpassed Patriarch Bodhi.

Furthermore, Zhou Yu also created his second method on the Time‑Space Dao, "Realm of Time and Space", which is similar to his earlier "Time‑Space Pool" used against the Wujian Gate; however, the Time‑Space Pool combined time and space and was executed via array techniques, whereas the "Realm of Time and Space" is executed solely through the mysteries of time and space.

And once activated, even without the aid of the Chaos Artifacts "Void‑Ming Chaos Water" and "Moon‑Sundial Strange Stone", its power is already great; of course, with a treasure to assist, the power becomes even stronger.

However, after creating "Realm of Time and Space", Zhou Yu's subsequent progress slowed.

Thus Zhou Yu simply began to create a third method.

In his conception, it is an extremely potent killing method, the primary means of slaying enemies.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Zhou Yu, who had been pondering, froze for a moment.

In a place extremely distant from the Three Realms.

More than four hundred years ago, Zhou Yu's second primordial spirit duplicate, who had left the Three Realms to seek destiny, arrived near an immensely vast Chaos Thunder Sea.

"Th-this place is…"

Zhou Yu stared at the thunderous ocean ahead, his mind full of astonishment as a memory involuntarily surged within him.

It was a memory from the first simulation in the Wild Desolation Era world, when he simulated in another Chaos world, the "Mixed Heaven World".

In the simulation, he, after hearing of the death of the Nine‑Spirit Ancestor God, left his hometown to seek destiny, and by chance discovered a thunder sea; that sea attracted him because of a copper mirror containing a heart‑energy inheritance he had obtained.

In the simulation he delved into the thunder sea, but was ultimately annihilated by a heart‑energy attack, causing both his true self and second primordial spirit to be destroyed, and the simulation failed outright.

Now, this thunder sea before his eyes felt familiar to Zhou Yu.

"This is it, it must be here." Zhou Yu circled the thunder sea once, quickly confirming this in his mind.

In the simulation he arrived here because of the "Child of Fortune", and in reality he again came here because of the Child of Fortune.

Of course, it must be because this thunder ocean itself lies near the Three Realms, allowing Zhou Yu to reach it.

"Makes sense; since the Nine Directions Chaos Stele can drift into the Three Realms, perhaps the original Nine Directions Chaos Nation wasn't far from here," Zhou Yu thought.

However, whether the truth is so is actually unimportant.

What matters is that since this thunder ocean is here, deep within it should lie a black stone stele, which can trigger the copper mirror's heart‑energy inheritance response.

"But that black stone stele is clearly not something ordinary beings can touch; in the simulation my true self and second primordial spirit were instantly annihilated," Zhou Yu weighed for a moment and decided to refrain from contacting the black stone stele for now.

Although he is now a Second‑rank Ancestor Immortal, a True God, with a spirit tens of thousands of times stronger than his simulated self, that heart‑energy attack is no joke.

Although the many duplicates he obtained from the simulation automatically sever their links when encountering mental attacks, his true self and the numerous second primordial spirit duplicates lack this ability.

If an accident occurs, Zhou Yu's true self's 18 duplicates and the second primordial spirit's 18 duplicates would all die.

"Record this location; when I'm stronger, I'll return," Zhou Yu decided.

Swish!

Zhou Yu manipulated time and space, continuing farther away.

But at that moment, in the nearby thunder sea, a sudden light flared up.

Swish!

An invisible force instantly pierced the thunder sea and entered Zhou Yu's divine body.

"Not good."

Zhou Yu instantly felt an endless heaviness surge to his heart.

Suddenly—

Bang!

Zhou Yu fell down.

Within the Three Realms.

Inside an unremarkable tavern, a figure who had been drinking and chatting with a group of traveling merchants froze, then with a thud fell down.

"Brother Zhou?"

The people nearby were startled, and at that moment—

Whoa!

A time‑space vortex suddenly appeared here, and a slender Dao‑robe elder stepped out of it.

It was Patriarch Bodhi.

Patriarch Bodhi sensed slightly, and his heart sank a little.

"With Qian Yu Dao Ancestor's power, how could he suddenly fall into a coma?" Patriarch Bodhi could not believe it.

He is a great power at the leader level atop the Three Realms; who could cause him to suddenly lapse into a coma?

Without overthinking, Patriarch Bodhi waved his hand, temporarily sealing the comatose Zhou Yu inside a Cave‑Heaven treasure, then immediately traversed time and space away from here.

"Hmm? What just happened?" The mortals here merely froze, then continued drinking and chatting as if nothing, completely unaware that a person had inexplicably vanished.

Elsewhere—

Zhou Yu's azure duplicate also appeared somewhere in the Three Realms, retrieving his second primordial spirit duplicate.

"I was just passing the thunder sea and got caught?" Zhou Yu thought it absurd.

Fortunately, the many duplicates he obtained from the simulation automatically cut off memories when facing mental techniques; otherwise he would have had no chance to react.

"Fortunately, this time it was only a coma, not killed by heart‑energy," Zhou Yu felt somewhat relieved.

Soon—

Zhou Yu's azure duplicate and Patriarch Bodhi both arrived at the Hall of Ten Thousand Tribes.

The two extracted Zhou Yu's comatose true self and second primordial spirit, and the assembly of True God Dao Ancestors watched in silence.

That a leader‑level great power could fall into a coma was something no one could have imagined, let alone dared to think.

Each True God Dao Ancestor stepped forward to examine, seeking the cause of Zhou Yu's coma, but in the end they only confirmed that Zhou Yu was indeed comatose, his spirit showing no reaction to the external force.

But in the end, what's going on, nobody says it clearly.

Soon, the Divine Farmer in the chaos also returned; after checking, he also had no solution.

"Friends, overthinking is useless." the Fire Maker said in a deep voice: "This shouldn't be the work of the Interminable Camp; otherwise we wouldn't have lasted until now, we would have lost long ago."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded.

They all understood that Zhou Yu had a secret, to the extent that he refused to speak of his own identity; this coma might be related to it.

"What should we do now?" a Dao Ancestor asked.

Just wait; we can only wait for him to wake up.

Hope that Dao Ancestor Qian Yu will wake up before the final battle.

All the True Gods and Dao Ancestors sighed; originally they had gained two powerful combatants on their side, and their confidence in this Great Tribulation had greatly increased, but who could have imagined such an accident would happen?

The news of Zhou Yu's coma also couldn't be hidden from the Interminable Sect.

In fact, since Zhou Yu revealed his strength, the Interminable Sect has been watching him; even if he walks low-key through the Three Realms, their gaze has always been on him.

At the moment Zhou Yu fell into a coma, the Interminable Sect already knew.

Only Patriarch Bodhi and Zhou Yu's Azure Clone left too quickly for them to react.

Of course, they also never dared to imagine that a leader-level powerhouse would actually fall into a coma.

But later, after repeated verification, the Interminable Sect also confirmed the truth of this news.

To the Interminable Sect, this was like a shot of adrenaline.

"Hahaha, how satisfying, how satisfying—Dao Ancestor Qian Yu's actions are too unscrupulous; he's getting his comeuppance."

"I never expected, I never expected it to be like this."

Every strong one of the Interminable Sect is overjoyed; there are True Gods and True Immortals whose kin were killed by Zhou Yu, as well as True God Dao Ancestors.

In short, his coma makes everyone happy.

In fact, Zhou Yu's true form and second primordial spirit are not in a coma.

At this moment his consciousness is trapped in a world.

Here too are the Three Realms, but the Three Realms of three million years ago, when Zhou Yu had just crossed over into this world, he was still an infant.

He is an observer, watching his own growth from three hundred million years ago.

The early growth was arduous; he went through countless efforts, and with decent luck, he gained the qualification to undergo tribulation, but the tribulation failed.

After failing, he spared no effort to stay alive.

He spent three million years like that, then came a rapid leap of a few hundred years; in just a few hundred years he grew from a loose immortal to the peak of the Three Realms, up to the moment before his coma.

Whoosh!

The world restarted, returning to the time when Zhou Yu first crossed over; everything replayed once again.

"Let me watch my own experience?"

"Who could know my own memories better than I?"

Zhou Yu felt bewildered; he already knew that this force at least meant him no harm, otherwise it would have simply destroyed him—why make him repeatedly watch his own growth?

But he is naturally extremely familiar with his own growth experience; why watch it again?

But this world clearly does not follow Zhou Yu's will; it merely replays his growth experience over and over, and Zhou Yu can do nothing but watch.

Again and again.

While watching, Zhou Yu initially didn't pay attention, but gradually he also noticed many things he had previously overlooked.

"The real me is actually like this." Zhou Yu gradually understood.

No matter how many simulated lives he goes through, the foundation that shapes him lies in this three-million-year experience.

Having failed his tribulation and unwilling to die, he spared no effort to increase his strength, wanting to live longer.

He longed to become an immortal, to share the lifespan of heaven and earth.

"Becoming a True God later was actually not that difficult, making me somewhat forget my former yearning." Zhou Yu thought in his heart.

But now he finally remembered.

Zhou Yu also understood that becoming an immortal is merely a facade; what he truly craves is great strength and unbounded longevity.

"So even if I become a True God, I have avatars in other worlds that can easily live through endless ages, yet I still repeatedly accumulate energy to simulate." Zhou Yu clearly realized.

Perhaps the driving force behind these actions has many apparent reasons, such as the Great Tribulation of the Three Realms.

But fundamentally, it is still based on his own desire.

"Finding one's true self is what return to truth means." Zhou Yu smiled.

At this moment, his soul is undergoing transformation, and his mind power naturally increases as well.

The fifth level of mind power — return to truth.

"Not bad, passable enough to cultivate; my supreme art, I shall pass on to you."

Suddenly a voice sounded in Zhou Yu's heart, and immediately a vast amount of information surged into his mind.

"Huh?"

Zhou Yu froze for a moment; he quickly realized that this huge amount of information is a mind power inheritance, an incredibly terrifying mind power inheritance, far more detailed than whatever he had obtained in the simulations—by who knows how many times.

"Thank you, senior." Zhou Yu expressed his thanks, but no one responded anymore.

(End of chapter)
