Chapter 885: Chapter 534: All Pawns? _2
At their level, there’s no need for them to act rashly.
Besides, a major force has yet to reveal itself.
Prehistoric times!!!
A few of them stood above the chaos, their thoughts unknown to others.
Every one of them had their own purpose.
The Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning wanted to devour the corpse of the Great Dao to achieve the position of the Great Dao, while Hen Dao wanted to release the heart demon of the Great Dao.
Only the purpose of the Supreme of the Dao Realm, the Ancestor of Early Dawn, was the most concealed.
Right now, neither Hen Dao nor the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning knew what the Supreme of the Dao Realm intended.
It looked unlikely that he wanted to achieve the Great Dao.
At this moment, the entire Land of the Forsaken Husk had turned into a battlefield, with life constantly slaughtering each other and the supremes colliding within the chaos.
After a while, they found that the venerable beings of the prehistoric times had still not revealed themselves.
Hen Dao made the first move, gathering his power and charging towards Hen Dao.
The Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning directly attacked the Supreme of the Dao Realm.
Hen Dao fought barehanded, while Hen Dao wielded a longsword.
The two clashed, causing the chaos to tremble violently.
However, the might that burst forth from Hen Dao was even more powerful than Hen Dao.
"Damn it, that heart demon of the Great Dao must have given Hen Dao quite a boost in power!" Hen Dao thought quietly to himself.
Actually, there was something very puzzling, being one of the few who knew.
He knew the Great Dao came to this chaos to find a way home, not for seclusion. Where exactly did this heart demon of the Great Dao come from?
And what exactly was that sealed master?
Hen Dao couldn’t quite understand.
He had been investigating these matters all along.
But he had never found the answers.
Though Hen Dao held an upper hand, Hen Dao was not an easy foe.
If Hen Dao’s power was around 2,940 Dao Divine Patterns, then Hen Dao had 2,930.
Ten Dao Divine Patterns made a significant difference.
Yet, the sword in Hen Dao’s hand emitted a strange power, giving him the ability to contend with Hen Dao.
"That’s Senior Brother’s Scholar Sword!" the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning said, looking at the sword, then at the Supreme of the Dao Realm: "Do you suspect that Hen Dao might be Senior Brother?"
"The Scholar Sword wasn’t Senior Brother’s lifebound spiritual treasure, but it was a frequently used weapon by him. This sword isn’t something an ordinary person can wield."
"Senior Brother cultivated the Confucian Dao, but Hen Dao did not. Hen Dao’s ability to wield the Scholar Sword likely means he received Senior Brother’s favor. Actually, I suspect that Senior Brother is already dead!" the Supreme of the Dao Realm chuckled softly.
The Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning suddenly raised his head.
Goodness gracious, this guy actually dared to think that!
He actually thought Senior Brother was dead.
Senior Brother was just one step away from the Great Dao; how could he die so easily?
Unless Master took Senior Brother along back then, it wouldn’t be easy for him to die.
"It’s not without reason for me to think this way. Given the situation in the Land of the Forsaken Husk, Senior Brother should have appeared by now, don’t you think?" the Supreme of the Dao Realm said.
"Actually, compared to Senior Brother, I’m more afraid of Fifth Junior Brother," the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning suddenly spoke.
The smile on the Supreme of the Dao Realm’s face froze.
Fifth Junior Brother.
There were five of them, but the four of them were all taken on by Master from different places and times, having spent extremely long years together.
However, Fifth Junior Brother.
Was taken on by Master from this chaos.
To be honest, Fifth Junior Brother was very mysterious. They had only met him a few times and exchanged a few words with him.
Even Senior Brother had little contact with Fifth Junior Brother.
They didn’t know his origins, what he practiced, or what race he belonged to.
All they knew was that his strength was quite weak, only at the Dominance realm, not even touching the Supreme realm.
They couldn’t even understand why Master took him as the fifth disciple!
As disciples of the Great Dao, they understood well.
Though Master seemed casual in accepting disciples, every one of them was exceptionally talented, right?
None of the four disciples had less than 2,990 Dao Divine Patterns in strength.
The first disciple was just one Divine Pattern away from reaching the legendary realm of the Great Dao.
In fact, the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning was the only one with significantly lesser strength. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Two thousand nine hundred and ninety-five Dao Divine Patterns.
The lowest among the four disciples.
Of course, this ’lowest’ was only relative.
He was proficient in the Path of Void Devouring and skilled in combat.
When the Great Way took in the fifth disciple, they were puzzled.
And then, shortly after the fifth junior disciple entered, he disappeared. At that time, their curiosity grew even more.
"I have a premonition that the fifth junior disciple has always been in the Land of the Forsaken Husk. Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning, I know that your body completed the Land of the Forsaken Husk, so you believed you could control the entire place. However, have you ever thought that the true player of this game is the fifth junior disciple, and you are merely a pawn?" The Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning laughed.
"Among the four of us senior and junior disciples, I’ve always been the last. I once confessed my feelings to Blood Robe, but Blood Robe rejected me, saying I was not as good as the senior brother. Since then, all I wanted was to become stronger! Stronger and to achieve the Great Way!"
"So, I acted against the remains of our master. What about you?"
"Among us, you have the most peaceful temperament and the kindest heart. What are you scheming?"
"I have no other way out. Whether it’s the fifth junior disciple, the senior brother, or the awakening of Gray Old Su, there is no way out for me."
"Actually, there’s always been one thing that puzzled me. That is, back then, why did I have such thoughts towards the remains of our master?"
In front of people, the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning always put on the appearance of a hero.
But now, he was pouring out his heart to the World Supreme.
His words even carried a hint of melancholy.
In particular, when he spoke the last sentence, the voice of the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning trembled.
It really trembled.
Indeed!
Despite his determination to become stronger, the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning was actually someone who respected his master and valued the teachings.
Back then, he wandered about, suffered humiliation, and it was his master who took him in, taught him the ways, and made him one of the absolute powerhouses.
He had always been grateful to his master, but...back then...he surprisingly had evil thoughts towards the remains of his master.
He couldn’t understand why!
It was with that thought that the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning became someone who betrayed and destroyed his master.
And the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning did not explain himself.
After all, it was already done. What use was there in explaining?
His desire to become stronger was genuine.
Since that was the case, the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning truly intended to devour the corpse of the Great Way.
But over the years, the more he thought about it, the more it seemed off.
In fact, he always found it hard to accept these thoughts and assumptions.
Could it be...he really was just a pawn?
The World Supreme across from him did not speak, or perhaps dared not speak.
"No one can control my fate!! No one!!" said the World Supreme coldly.
At that moment, two extremely powerful forces suddenly descended from an unknown direction.
They fell upon both the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning and the World Supreme.
The faces of the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning and the World Supreme both changed, warding off and dispelling those forces.
But their eyes were full of suspicion and amazement.
Soon after, they saw someone walking out from the chaos.
Seeing the newcomer, both the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning and the World Supreme took a step back.
"Third senior sister!!" said the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning.
The newcomer was Qing Lan.
But now, Qing Lan’s frail appearance from that time was gone; she was full of spirit and vigor.
Her own strength and presence seemed to possess around two thousand eight hundred Dao Divine Patterns.
However, neither the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning nor Hen Dao dared to underestimate her in the slightest.
Behind Qing Lan, five treasures shone with immeasurable divine light.
Under the divine light, Qing Lan’s momentum even seemed to overshadow everyone present.
At that moment, the Supreme of Darkness left his opponent, the Lord of Silence, and swiftly made his way to Qing Lan’s side.
Seeing the arrival of the Supreme of Darkness, a hint of an unusual expression flashed in Qing Lan’s eyes, but it quickly dissipated, as if it had never appeared.
There was even a deliberate trace of disgust that swept across her face.
However, the Supreme of Darkness didn’t mind. To him, perhaps just being able to stay beside Qing Lan was the greatest satisfaction.
Qing Lan’s sudden appearance even made Hen Dao and He Yuan, who were fighting, pause their actions.
He Yuan was also stunned by Qing Lan’s arrival.
He didn’t expect Qing Lan to appear all of a sudden either.
