Chapter 1115 - 1021: Dog Head Master
Grey Mist Sea, The Land Near the Forbidden.
“What on earth is going on… we can no longer probe into the Ancestral Mist Realm…”
“It’s as if some unspeakable force has isolated everything…”
Many True Ancestors were whispering, their expressions extremely grave.
“The army from the Ancestral Mist Realm has already invaded the Grey Mist Sea… all of them are High Road Level powerhouses.”
A sovereign spoke gravely, saying:
“Now it seems, the powerhouses on the Forbidden Ancient Path did not succeed in stopping the Nine Laws Sacrifice.”
“They… succeeded.”
Other True Ancestors fell silent too.
Nine Laws Sacrifice, a world ascending.
“The Nine Laws have finally gained momentum, enough to threaten our Grey Mist Sea!”
They whispered.
“Brother Feng, it’s time for us to make a move, looking at the current world, the Ancestral Mist Realm… is hard to resist.”
A sovereign spoke.
They were of course also noticing the battles within the Grey Mist Sea.
“Wait!”
Feng Tiangu spoke, saying:
“Before Tranquil Sea Shrine makes a decision, we absolutely cannot act rashly!”
“After all, whether the thought at The End of Myriad Paths still exists, no one knows…”
Hearing this, the many restless True Ancestors also could only wait.
After all, even as True Ancestors, they dared not face The End of Myriad Paths.
…
At this moment.
Inside Tranquil Sea Shrine.
“The message has already been sent to the Hall of the King of Hell… but there’s been no reply.”
A ghostly being with emerald green ghostly eyes opened and whispered.
“Be patient, the ancient path can’t just watch the Grey Mist Sea being extinguished, after all, the Grey Mist Sea is the foundation for us becoming the Forbidden Realm!”
…
At this moment.
At the end of the Grey Mist Sea.
A mysterious ancient path, intermittently visible between the Chaos Fog and dense grey mist.
This ancient path, covered with bones, through ancient and modern times, many powerhouses from the Grey Mist Sea tried to tread this path seeking a chance, all died.
And mid-way along this path, there are numerous dangers.
There are broken world phantoms that can devour powerhouses.
There are robbery lights flashing from unknown spacetime, able to annihilate True Ancestors.
There are also bizarre foreign Source Qi that can drive one mad.
Only by enduring the long perilous path, can one see the world of the First Source Clan.
At this moment.
Within the Tenth Source Clan.
A grey sticky lake, within which stands a grand hall majestically.
Countless ghosts worship, bones respect.
At this moment.
Inside the Reincarnation Palace, the scene was grim.
On either side of the grand hall were various evil ghosts, serving as Reincarnation Ghosts, standing solemnly, and at the head sat a middle-aged man.
Half of this middle-aged man’s face had rotted away, leaving only chilling white bones, wearing a black robe embroidered with Reincarnation runes in gold threads, his left sleeve contained only bones, while his right hand was casually placed on the table, lightly tapping the table surface as if pondering something.
On the left side of the grand hall, a Dog-headed Taoist sat carelessly on a chair, with two elders standing behind him.
This Dog-headed Taoist possessed an extraordinary demeanor, appearing sage-like and profound!
“Great Sage, the several verses of the Reincarnation Poem that you recited, I have gained some understanding.”
“Which cycle of life and death is this turn, endless calamities never idle, this means reincarnation is eternal, great calamities are ceaseless!”
“A pond of universe filled with right and wrong, worlds of humanity with mountains of bones, this means to find reincarnation, one needs to unravel the rights and wrongs of the universe, experiencing the life and death of the human world.”
“And crucially, it should be the last two lines, no place to find hell in the palm, now follow evil to refine the great return… the profound meaning of these two lines, I really cannot see through, please enlighten me, Great Sage!”
Above, the middle-aged man thought for a long time before he spoke, looking towards the Dog-headed Taoist.
The Dog-headed Taoist was light as a feather, replying:
“The meaning of these two lines is very simple, if I need to spell it out, then you’re somewhat too foolish…”
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man’s face turned somewhat unsightly.
And the surrounding group of ghosts also showed displeasure!
This Dog Taoist, to dare speak to the Forbidden Master like this!
A few ghosts even looked towards the middle-aged man, seeking his opinion on whether to extinguish this Dog Taoist.
But, the Forbidden Master of the Tenth Source Clan shook his head and then looked towards the Dog-headed Taoist, suddenly saying:
“Indeed, these two lines are extremely profound; perhaps… you don’t know them yourself?”
As the Forbidden Master of the Tenth Source Clan, now walking the path of the Living Reincarnation, what kind of state of mind did he possess? The words of the Dog-headed Taoist made him instantly feel that perhaps he was being hoodwinked!
Upon hearing this, Yang Daomei and Jiang Yunsheng, standing behind the Dog-headed Taoist, immediately tensed up.
It seems that Big Black Dog is about to give away his true identity!
Their unease was unparalleled.
In particular, this place is truly the Dragon Pools and Tiger Dens. Not to mention how unfathomably profound the Forbidden Master is, even the surrounding Reincarnation Ghosts… are extremely terrifying supremacies.
If they really start a fight, the three of them… would definitely not be able to escape.
However, Big Black Dog remained calm and said:
“Hehe… Young man, I have roamed through countless eons with pride, you are the first to dare question me.”
“Even these two sentences you cannot comprehend, even if I were to explain them to you, what use would it be? You would still not fathom Samsara!”
“Enough, it seems your aptitude is too lacking, definitely not someone destined to be enlightened. My teachings would be of no use to you.”
Saying this, the Dog-headed Taoist stood up and was about to leave, but paused before walking away, and said:
“Out of respect for our meeting, I cannot bear to see you wander astray, remember well: endless suffrances fill the universe, and life and death always serve as the master of reincarnation.”
After that, he proceeded to walk away.
Instantly, the faces of the surrounding Reincarnation Ghosts turned angry, preparing to make a move. This Dog Taoist dared to belittle the Forbidden Master’s qualifications and dared to leave as he pleased?!
Yet the Forbidden Master of the Tenth Source Clan suddenly changed his expression and quickly rose to his feet, stepping forward to block the Dog-headed Taoist. His face filled with excitement, he said:
“Noble one, please stay!”
“It was my rudeness to question an elder, please do not take it to heart!”
“May I ask the noble one to stay here for a while longer? I am willing to serve as your disciple, what do you say?”
His eyes were filled with hopeful pleading.
Upon hearing this, the surrounding Reincarnation Ghosts were stunned.
What is this situation…
Despite such disrespect, the Forbidden Master wants to serve as a disciple?
Why does this Dog-headed Taoist deserve this?
“Master, please reconsider, this Dog Taoist could very likely be deceiving us…”
An old Ghost couldn’t help but speak up.
However, the Forbidden Master shouted:
“Silence, if anyone else dares to insult the noble one, I will kill you!”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed, the Forbidden Master… was seriously determined?
They dared not say anything more.
“Noble one… could you possibly give me a chance?”
The Forbidden Master looked at the Dog-headed Taoist with utter respect!
Because, he has been struggling to comprehend reincarnation for far too long.
The words just spoken by the Dog-headed Taoist, “endless suffrances fill the universe, and life and death always serve as the master of reincarnation,” were like a streak of light in the night sky, suddenly making him understand the true nature of reincarnation.
He felt that his own millennium of bitter meditation could not match a single word from this Dog Taoist.
The other side was definitely a true enlightened master, worthy of being called a grandmaster!
All his doubts vanished with the Dog-headed Taoist’s two lines.
The Dog-headed Taoist then pondered for a moment and said:
“Fine, although your aptitude is low and your perception is extremely poor, you do have sincere intentions, so I will stay a few more days… As for accepting you as a disciple, forget it, you truly do not have the capabilities to be my disciple yet.”
He seemed quite reluctant.
Seeing this, the Forbidden Master of the Tenth Source Clan finally breathed a sigh of relief and said:
“Noble one, rest assured, I will dedicate myself to learning!”
He was utterly grateful!
“Report!”
Just at that moment.
An old ghost suddenly floated in, and said:
“Reporting to the Master, there is urgent news…”
As the old ghost spoke, he glanced at the three people including the Dog-headed Taoist.
But the Forbidden Master waved his hand and said:
“This noble one is one of our own, just speak freely.”
He didn’t want to upset the Dog-headed Taoist.
After all, he was still hoping for the noble one’s guidance to soon master the authority of reincarnation.
Upon hearing this, the old ghost then said:
“Our forces sent to suppress the End of Myriad Paths… have all perished.”
“The Ancestral Mist Realm has risen above the world and even invaded the Grey Mist Sea.”
“The Grey Mist Sea is inquiring if they can act to help suppress the invasion from the Ancestral Mist Realm… after all, the Grey Mist Sea might not be able to withstand it.”
Upon hearing this, the Forbidden Master’s face turned grim!
“What?!”
“The End of Myriad Paths… failed to suppress?”
The Forbidden Master coldly commanded:
“Tell them to act without hesitation, we absolutely must not let the people from the Ancestral Mist Realm ruin the foundation of the Grey Mist Sea!”
“The lingering regret of the End of Myriad Paths cannot stir up a storm!”
