"But on the Shengshen Continent, has anyone touched the Path of Return to Zero and actively sought an audience with the Nuozu?"Zi Chong looked grave, as if analyzing the pros and cons.
Finally, her brows furrowed again, pondering elsewhere.
At the moment she was captivated by the intent of Nu, it was then the Medicine Ancestor mentioned the appointment of a new Ancestral God.
But is this new ancestor truly new?
Zi Chong raised her eyes to gaze afar, sweeping across the five regions and the Four Seas, taking in the entire continent at a glance.
Nu, and those who meet Nu, let them be for now.
The manifestation of the "birth of an Ancestral God" was far more complex than a mere statement by the Medicine Ancestor.
At this moment in the five regions, there were numerous devout followers, hands raised high, knees on the ground, fervently chanting something:
"Welcome the birth of the Dao Ancestor!"
Most notably in the Southern Region, where around seventy to eighty percent of Spiritual Cultivators simultaneously knelt and worshiped.
It seemed as if they were born to receive the enlightenment of the Dao Ancestor, and the influence of this Ancestral God in the Southern Region surpassed even the Cursed Yin.
The Eastern Region followed next.
Less so in the Western and Northern Regions.
Yet combined, it accounted for no less than sixty percent of the people kneeling.
An intriguing phenomenon was that not a single ancient swordsman knelt, why was this?
Were they avoiding the authority of the Sword Ancestor?
No, the authority of the Sword Ancestor had long since fallen into the hands of the Demon Ancestor, becoming part of the Demon Ancestor.
If they were avoiding the authority of the Demon Ancestor, they would avoid both "sword" and "spirit," meaning not a single Refining Spiritual Cultivator from the five regions would kneel.
The reality, however, was entirely different.
Thus, what they were avoiding was not themselves.
But in the Path of the "Sword," they had already transcended the Eight Ancestors of the Sword Ancestor, which means...
"Bazhun’an!"
They do not avoid themselves but instead evade a figure who had long departed the realm of time and could no longer influence the five regions’ situation.
Either they were certain Bazhun’an would return.
Or they stood on the side of Bazhun’an.
In short, to sum up, the person who has come is not friendly, they are here for the ultimate goal of seizing the way of spiritual cultivation, and inevitably they will collide with me head-on!
"Intriguing."
"Truly intriguing."
Just such a small deviation in choice, and Zi Chong had already discerned the stance of this newly-appointed Ancestral God.
As for whether they are "newly-appointed," it depends on the power this Ancestral God wields.
"Dao Ancestor..."
The Five Domains Refining Spirit Master, all under the control of the Holy Demon.
In a single thought, Zi Chong had scoured the souls of almost all the kneeling Refining Spirit Masters, only to find that all their memories had shown deviations.
"Holy Demon Medicine Ghost Technique, Sword Dragon Battle Heaven..."
"Among these people, the traces of the ’Time Ancestor’ among the Five Domains and Ten Ancestors had entirely vanished. What they are seizing is the way of the Time Ancestor?"
Not at all!
For ordinary people, they might have been deceived.
Zi Chong saw through this eye-blocking technique at a glance, and then uncovered a deeper intention:
"Seizing the authority of the Time Ancestor is just a guise."
"With the power of the Time Ancestor, even if lost, if I wished to seize his path, I would have to think thrice and prepare thoroughly to approach gradually."
"They absolutely dare not!"
But on the surface, wearing the guise of "seizing the name of the Time Ancestor," they had actually intruded the root of the Holy Path, silently winning over the beliefs of nearly half the Refining Spirit Masters in the five regions.
Does it mean they would dare to flip the table with me, dare to engage with me?
Not so!
"Such elaborate precautions to obfuscate their true intentions, this person is deep in scheming, thus appearances cannot be relied upon."
"And setting aside the process, tracing the results, what now can catch the eye of the Ancestral God in the five regions is either the Holy Demon Path, the Medicine Ghost Path, or the New Heavenly Realm."
The answer seems to be apparent.
Since that "newly-appointed Ancestral God," both the "sword" and the "spirit," both pointed to what I control.
Then what they seek to seize can only be the way of the Medicine Ancestor.
Just so happens, the Medicine Ancestor is undergoing possession by the Cursed Yin.
Is there a connection here?
"Coincidence?"
Zi Chong’s small face turned serious, unwilling to believe this was purely coincidental.
If there is no connection, the matter could still be minimized and resolved.
But if there is, the trouble the Medicine Ancestor is about to face could be much greater than I imagined?
"Beware of ’memory’!"
She sent a thought back towards the Medicine Ancestor.
With that said, Zi Chong could not offer further support.
After all, her initial intention was for the Divine Farmer Hundred Grass to have a battle with the Cursed Yin, resulting in mutual injury.
Now with a newly-appointed Ancestral God eyeing them, it’s even better; the best result would be if the three parties fought it out, and I ended up collecting Shennong too in the end—better yet.
But since allowing the Medicine Ancestor to return to zero, that seems a bit too idealistic.
Settling for the next best thing, with the Medicine Ancestor fighting Cursed Yin, and the newly-appointed Ancestral God, there would be only two people left to deal with next.
"The meaning of seeing Nu..."
Who was it, who could do it?
Very strangely, try as she might, Zi Chong couldn’t think of anyone who could voluntarily meet Nu.
If it was to meet the famous, Zi Chong had a candidate in mind, it should only be the Saint Servant, Xu Xiaoshou, who possessed such a possibility.
Regarding Nu, there seemed to be little connection with Xu Xiaoshou?
"Somewhat peculiar..."
Her brows furrowed deeper, and Zi Chong felt she had overlooked something, but her attention was inevitably drawn to the North Region’s The Divine.
This was the real deal!
This was the great enemy!
Or rather, The Divine himself wasn’t fearful, nor were the Three Realms of The Divine, what was terrifying was the golden Shariputra he held.
"The destined one..."
A lifetime with fate, fortune concentrated in one!
This understanding, from the Holy Ancestor becoming a Holy Demon, after experiencing the vicissitudes of life, was naturally understood.
Among the Ten Ancestors, who wasn’t the destined one of that era?
In this Spiritual Cultivation Era, propelled solely by the Holy Demon, with luck accumulated and detonated, it is natural to produce a destined one destined to be appointed the Ancestral God of Return to Zero.
