Chapter 4238: Meeting by Name
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
"Xu Xiaoshou, long time no see."He had just retreated back to the Apricot Realm, and God Worship Willow was summoning the Divine Relics in the Western Desert.
Xu Xiaoshou’s thoughts were jolted, as he sensed a forceful pull, attempting to drag him into the darkness.
The voice of the Demon Ancestor...
This was an attack on consciousness.
Now that the River of Intent was gathered, such attacks could be easily severed by Xu Xiaoshou.
However, he did not do so; instead, he split off a wisp of his consciousness, with the intention to completely abandon it if things went awry, and followed the guidance.
It was rare for his opponent, who hadn’t yet surfaced, to want to reveal some of their hand proactively, so how could he not meet them?
Buzz!
His thoughts trembled slightly, and his consciousness soared afar.
The last time the Medicine Ancestor forcibly guided him, Xu Xiaoshou’s consciousness defended his body and had yet to connect with the consciousness of the five regions.
Therefore, that time, it was only after entering the Valley of Floral Fragrance that he pondered for a long time to figure out where it was.
Today was different from the past; this time was entirely different.
After his main body stepped into the River of Intent, Xu Xiaoshou could clearly sense the twists and turns of the Demon Ancestor.
The split-off consciousness body was first led around chaotically within the Five Regions’ Way of the Heavens, seemingly to obscure one’s judgment and make one lose direction.
Not satisfied with that, it then took him on a stroll along the river of time, crossing countless spaces and visiting numerous places before quietly slipping back.
At this point, even an ordinary Ancestral God, if not adept in perception-type Great Paths, might be somewhat lost.
But Xu Xiaoshou was different.
Both the Will Path and the Time Dao, he had mastered them.
Further supported by the Great Dao River for self-identity undisturbed.
Thus, Demon Ancestor’s petty tricks seemed rather laughable now.
In the end, the split-off consciousness was ferried into the darkness through a spacetime fissure.
"This place is..."
Sitting in the Apricot Realm, Xu Xiaoshou’s main body, through the connection with his consciousness, instantly determined that the surrounding spacetime node still belonged to the Shengshen Continent.
Four-hill mountain, position of the Holy Palace?
But the "dark world" was different.
Inside, it formed its own rules, where nothing could be seen, like a white mist obscuring the consciousness’s view.
"Sizzle!"
A soft sound echoed in the dark world, a faint light appeared, illuminating chaos, revealing a gigantic phantom of the Demon Ancestor, as though the Demon Ancestor statue seen in the stone hall had awakened.
Not a real person...
Relying solely on the Will Path, Xu Xiaoshou determined that the Demon Ancestor used some means, allowing him to willingly coalesce the things he wanted and was expected to see.
And if he were to converse with the Demon Ancestor under such an illusory guise, it would be disadvantageous for the upcoming dialogue.
Apricot Realm, within the Crystal Palace.
Seated above the coral stage, Xu Xiaoshou unfolded the Technique Dao Disc at his feet and stealthily employed a technique.
"Confined · Outer Magic Eye!"
A vertical eye cracked open at his brow, yet it was not the Cursed Yin Eye, but rather an improved spiritual eye by Xu Xiaoshou.
Under the support of this technique, all illusions became meaningless.
The split-off consciousness also dispelled the white mist before its eyes, directly seeing through the reality.
Within was a self-contained world, a heaven and earth filled with Dao Methods.
Not large, yet brimming with "nurturing" and "Devil" forces, useful for healing wounds.
The consciousness remained unperturbed, but its peripheral vision caught sight of the exuberant powers beneath the flaw-ridden Demon Ancestor statue.
"Demon Ancestor’s body, Demon Ancestor’s spirit, Demon Ancestor’s will..."
"And this person... Holy Emperor Purple Pet? No, it should be Holy Ancestor Saint Xin, otherwise there wouldn’t be such pure Power of Divinity within..."
"Then there’s no mistake, has the Demon Ancestor truly reached a dead end, daring to guide my consciousness into the fetal origin coffin, or is he still underestimating me?"
How could Xu Xiaoshou be courteous with the Demon Ancestor?
After determining that the Demon Ancestor’s Will Path was not in the Extreme Realm—after all, this guy hadn’t even perceived the presence of Dao Qiongcang, or the Branding left on the Demon Ancestor statue by the previous three generations.
His first move was not to exchange pleasantries with the Demon Ancestor but rather to quietly mark the fetal origin coffin with a Branding of the Will Path.
"Who are you?"
"Demon Ancestor? Saint Xin?"
"Why did you guide me here, what are you aiming for?"
Xu Xiaoshou’s consciousness didn’t show panic, though there was more chatter than usual, as if suppressing the unease in his heart.
"Calm down."
Within the fetal origin coffin, the Demon Ancestor’s body, spirit, and intent, along with the Purple Pet, were bare before the eyes.
The phantom of the Demon Ancestor statue remained inscrutably profound, as if the Xu Xiaoshou before it was the same as the one seen along the river of time, easily manipulated:
"Meeting you this time is for two things."
"First, this Ancestor wants to know, regarding what I proposed last time, have you given it any thought?"
The Demon Ancestor statue’s expression was subtle, seemingly indifferent to Xu Xiaoshou’s response, as if all transformations were within its control.
What was discussed last time?
Nothing short of cooperation.
The Demon Ancestor had deduced the secret to his rapid growth, namely the "wheel," though he had no precise answer, only speculations.
These things, beyond the three gates, Xu Xiaoshou had already found the answers himself, meaning the Demon Ancestor could no longer offer him the stakes he desired.
Nonetheless, feigning tact and employing the old ruse once more was still a preferable choice...
"What is the second thing?"
Xu Xiaoshou seemed to have calmed, exhibiting the analytical prowess befitting a wise man, with a hint of evident greed.
