357: Xuanling!!
"Quick! Quickly!"
Chu Mo, in cooperation with his Clone's consciousness, used Mo Shi's body as a battlefield to annihilate the Lust Demoness's consciousness.
Although the Lust Demoness was temporarily suppressed by the Xuan Ling Coffin and the Great Cold Tablet, and had been knocked into the Immortal Source Pool.
However, Chu Mo couldn't guarantee that this would be enough to kill the Lust Demoness.
If it didn't work, he would have to be prepared.
Control of the Clone had to be reclaimed.
Otherwise, he would have to fight two opponents!
However, the progress of the annihilation was extremely difficult; the Lust Demoness's consciousness within Mo Shi's body was incredibly tenacious.
Although she was at a disadvantage, there was no way to erase her.
Boom—!
The Immortal Source Pool shook violently, and the misty Immortal Qi continuously surged, then ninety-nine beams of light shot up into the sky, colliding and combining to form ninety-nine giant light screens.
Inside the light screens.
There were fragmented and scattered images.
The images contained memories belonging to ninety-nine different people, and these memory images quickly shattered and then reassembled.
After countless memory images shattered and intertwined, a single light screen finally appeared above the Immortal Source Pool.
There were two figures, one black and one white; although their faces were unclear, Chu Mo could feel the traces of time left on them.
the two of them stood shoulder to shoulder.
Neither of them looked at the other.
The white-robed figure had a stern face and was the first to break the silent atmosphere.
"Li Wangnian, the two of us rose from obscurity, one following the Righteous Path and the other the Demonic Path, experiencing ten thousand years of trials and tribulations, standing at the pinnacle of the world. Now, you are the leader of the Righteous Path, and I am the leader of the Demonic Path! Is there anything in this world that can still be difficult for the two of us? Do you really have to betray the Human Race for Immortal Ascension, and even act as their obsequious dog?"
The black-robed figure exuded an aura of decay, and a hint of divine light flickered in his eyes. He said with great effort, "Betray the Human Race? Act as an obsequious dog? Is that what I want? Do you think that's what I want?"
"We have no path left!"
"The Human Race has no path left!"
"Qin Ze!"
"It took us three months for Qi Refining, one year for Foundation Establishment, five years for Golden Core, ten years for Nascent Soul, fifty years for Soul Transformation, one hundred twenty years for Void Refining, three hundred years for Body Integration, five hundred years for Mahayana, and a thousand years for Undergoing Tribulation!"
"But even now, thirty thousand years have passed, and Immortal Ascension is still nowhere in sight!"
"Is it because our Innate talent is insufficient? No, it's because they don't allow us to achieve Immortal Ascension; they don't allow anyone from the Human Race to achieve Immortal Ascension!"
"They are afraid that the era of 'everyone is like a Dragon' will descend again! Afraid that our Human Race will once again suppress all other races, leaving them no room to breathe!"
Qin Ze, in white, heard this and still responded coldly.
"Seeking the Dragon Clan's protection at the cost of the Human Race's Luck, isn't this severing the Human Race's Foundation? I dare to do anything, but I will never be a traitor!"
"Qin Ze!!" Li Wangnian, in black, turned around and placed his hands on Qin Ze's shoulders, his expression incredibly agitated.
"The Human Race originated in the Era of Tinder, and the first batch of Innate Human Race once flourished, but what happened after that! The Era of Tinder ended, and the Human Race was slaughtered, leaving no one!"
"And the current Human Race was re-evolved by the Human Dao, based on the former Human Race's deduction."
"Also known as the Acquired Human Race!"
"We consider ourselves not to be from this world, but in fact, we are in this world."
"The Earth we live on was evolved by the Human Dao, and our self-proclaimed special identity as Earth Transmigration individuals was also evolved and projected into the real world by the Human Dao, based on the Acquired Human Race!"
Li Wangnian's words made Qin Ze frown. "You mean, we aren't actually Transmigration individuals? But rather evolved by the Human Dao... But this..."
"I know you don't believe it," Li Wangnian continued. "But think about it carefully, doesn't the Earth we live on have many bugs! Why did human history undergo a leapfrog development in just a few short decades?"
"This... a coincidence?!" Qin Ze was no longer as aggressive as before; in fact, his previous demeanor was all an act.
Having known Li Wangnian for so long, how could he not know his character?!
Li Wangnian didn't mind Qin Ze's change in attitude. He continued, "The world we lived in before Transmigration was clearly a technological world, yet at some point, the country announced the Qi Refining chapter?"
"All of this was pushed by the Human Dao!"
"Rapidly developing technology was the Human Dao enveloping it with Luck, allowing people of a certain era to have Opportunities similar to Cultivating and comprehending the Dao, thereby achieving a technological explosion! But later, the Human Dao also discovered that relying solely on technology could not escape the fate of the Human Dao's demise, and thus allowed the Cultivation system to appear."
"Wait." Qin Ze looked at Li Wangnian in surprise: "You mean, the Human Dao's demise? What's going on?"
"The end of the Era of Tinder and the demise of the Innate Human Race are the most direct manifestations of the Human Dao losing its game with the Heavenly Dao! And now, the Heavenly Dao is devouring the Human Dao. The Human Dao, in order to save itself, evolved what we consider to be Earth!"
"Once the Heavenly Dao successfully devours the Human Dao, then the Human Race will never have another chance to rise! It will completely become food for all races."
"What about the evolved Earth? What about my parents!" Qin Ze anxiously pressed.
"They will perish along with the Human Dao and the evolved Earth!"
Li Wangnian said this with extreme conviction, yet his words carried an unparalleled resolve.
"Qin Ze!!"
"Do you believe me?!"
"Betting half of the Human Race's Luck?" Qin Ze's eyes also blazed with fire. "Betting, I've never been afraid! And I've never lost! However, you must promise me that the half of the Human Race's Luck given to the Dragon Clan, one day, they must return it all!"
"I have never been one to suffer losses! The Dragon Ancestor took my Human Race's Luck, I not only want him to die, but I also want his Dragon Clan's Luck to return to my Human Race!
Furthermore, our conversation this time! The Human Dao is helping us obscure the heavenly secrets; that's all It can do for now! Future conversations will have to be encrypted!"
"I understand!" Qin Ze extended his right fist. "As always! You white, I black, grow bigger and stronger!"
Li Wangnian smiled and raised his fist to meet it.
the two of them clashed their fists together heavily.
Then, facing the afterglow of the setting sun, they went their separate ways.
The scene ended there.
The light screen shattered.
Chu Mo finally came back to his senses.
He never expected things to be so complicated, and his own appearance, was it like Li Wangnian and Qin Ze in the scene, from the so-called evolved Earth they spoke of?
However, what was surprising was that the Lust Demoness, suppressed by two half-Immortal Artifacts, had not yet appeared.
"With her strength, that shouldn't be! Could it be that she was really purified by the Immortal Source Pool?!" Chu Mo wondered.
His gaze swept across the Immortal Pool.
The misty Qi within it seemed to have solidified, no, not just the misty Qi in the Immortal Pool, but everything around it seemed to have solidified.
Chu Mo called out to Long Aotian several times, but the other party did not respond.
Suddenly.
From within the Immortal Source Pool, a white-robed young man walked out.
Although Chu Mo didn't recognize him.
He still guessed his identity.
"Xuan Ling!!"
