Chapter 241: Chapter 143: ssenger
After being scolded by the protagonist, the Sage of Ti instead cald down.
He was just a shred of a divine soul, unable to see the protagonist’s expression at this mont, but he could sense the protagonist’s intense emotional fluctuations.
The Sage of Ti was puzzled: "How strange! Although there are many unknown dangers within the River of Ti, you were rely peeking at a corner, not altering the course of ti. Why would that terrifying existence attack you?"
The protagonist was still shaken.
Hearing the Sage of Ti’s words, he retorted irritably, "If you ask , who am I supposed to ask?"
The Sage of Ti, unable to comprehend, could only temporarily set this matter aside and turn to asking about the main issue.
He asked the protagonist, "Did you see anything in the River of Ti? Did you see the Ancient Race?"
A flicker of sothing flashed through the protagonist’s eyes and then quickly disappeared.
He shook his head and said, "I think I saw them, but it also seed like I didn’t. The scenes in the River of Ti are bizarre and ever-changing, and I don’t recognize the Ancient Race. Even if I saw them, I wouldn’t recognize them. I can only verify what I’ve seen in the River of Ti when the Ancient Race appears."
The protagonist seed to have said a lot, but there was essentially no substantial content.
But the Sage of Ti believed every bit of it.
The Sage of Ti agreed: "The River of Ti is indeed vast and boundless. It’s already impressive that you’ve seen so much in such a short ti."
Then, he suddenly changed the topic: "You ntioned seeing soone in the River of Ti earlier. Who was that?"
Upon hearing this, the protagonist’s heart suddenly stirred.
Instinct told him that the previous words of the Sage of Ti were re cover. This was the real question he wanted to ask.
The protagonist’s expression remained unchanged as he calmly said, "I saw my cousin! I don’t have a good relationship with him, so I wanted to see if he might be unlucky in the future. But all I caught was a fleeting glimpse, and then the monster appeared!"
Hearing that the protagonist was looking at his cousin, the Sage of Ti imdiately beca disappointed.
He expressed dissatisfaction: "To use sothing as important as a ti fragnt to look at soone irrelevant is simply a waste of a precious resource!"
The protagonist ignored the Sage of Ti.
In his mind, the image of Zhao Yi from the River of Ti surfaced.
Zhao Yi remained lofty, sitting on an incredibly luxurious enormous throne.
On either side of the throne, beautiful won surrounded him, accompanied by celestial music and auspicious clouds.
This scene made the protagonist very displeased!
Zhao Yi was still sitting on the throne in the future, which ant he didn’t get unlucky.
Furthermore, the throne beneath him was even more luxurious than the previous dragon carriage.
Clearly, Zhao Yi not only didn’t fall into decline, but future days will be very carefree for him.
"Good people don’t live long, but misfortune lasts a thousand years!"
The protagonist felt extrely upset.
Suddenly, a thought struck the protagonist, and he asked the Sage of Ti, "Can the things seen in the River of Ti be changed?"
The Sage of Ti: "They can’t be changed!"
The protagonist was defiant: "Why can’t they be changed? Isn’t it said that destiny can be altered? In our Cultivation Realm, there’s a saying: ’I am the master of my fate, not the heavens!’"
The Sage of Ti stated firmly, "You said it yourself, that’s destiny! Destiny is unpredictable, ever-changing, and every choice could lead to countless transformations! But ti is different; the River of Ti flows forward unstoppably, impervious to anyone’s will. Whatever you see is bound to be what will happen in the future!"
Upon hearing this, the protagonist felt even more distraught.
The Sage of Ti asked, "You seem to be in low spirits. What did you see in the River of Ti?"
The protagonist maintained a blank expression: "I saw my cousin sitting on the throne, beauties by his side, celestial music and auspicious clouds surrounding him, practically enjoying all the riches and glory."
The Sage of Ti: "That does sound quite impressive, but you’re no less. You’ve been chosen as the ssenger, with a noble fate, destined for supre glory and safety in tis of peril."
The protagonist’s face was expressionless: "But I’ve been unlucky my whole life."
As a child, he was nearly killed by the Yao Race, then sent to the West Mountain Temple at a young age, and after growing up, he encountered that mad old emperor. Shortly after being promoted to Buddha’s Son, Su Qianqian appeared...
The more the protagonist thought, the more his resentnt grew, and his pupils gradually turned crimson gold.
This was a sign of the Dragon God Technique going berserk.
This frenzy was a subtle change, without any warning.
The protagonist himself hadn’t realized he was going crazier.
The Sage of Ti remained silent for a while before saying, "As I said earlier, destiny...can change..."
He might as well not have said it; as soon as he did, the protagonist’s resentnt surged even more.
Destiny changes when it cos to him?
But Zhao Yi is unstoppable?
Could Zhao Yi be heaven’s illegitimate child?
The protagonist’s eyes flickered with crimson-gold light as he coldly looked at the Sage of Ti: "Enough, let’s leave it at that, I’m leaving!"
With that said, he turned and walked toward the palace door.
"Wait a minute!" the Sage of Ti hastily said.
"The Divine Hall of Ti can only be opened once, and once you leave, I will completely disperse!"
"If you don’t have urgent matters, you could stay here and chat with . I know many of your Cultivation Realm’s secret techniques; I can tell you all of them, and I can teach you magic too!"
"I’m most proficient in Undead Magic; I’m the only Undead Magic God from our world. I can pass everything I have on to you, just for the company of a chat. I’ve been lonely for so long!"
The protagonist paused for a mont, not stopping but instead quickening his pace.
Sage of Ti: "Wait, young man, chat with
a bit more, and I can give you everything I have!"
The protagonist remained unmoved and said without turning his head, "You might not know, but I’ve always carried a Divine Soul with . Even the person I hated the most left a trace of their Divine Soul. The common point among them is that they can fuse and possess others!"
"You deliberately lured
into the River of Ti, intending to let my Divine Soul get lost in it, so you could possess and take over my body. But unexpectedly, a giant claw appeared and pushed
out at the critical mont, ruining your plan by sheer coincidence."
"You beings from Otherworlds sealed off our world, extinguishing countless brilliant Great Cultivators in the Cultivation Realm, and now you want
to believe you? Do you really take
for a three-year-old child?"
The Sage of Ti explained, "The matter of sealing the Cultivation Realm was proposed by your own people. We paid a huge price for it, and you can’t place the bla on us."
"So, the idea of possessing
is true then?" The protagonist sneered.
"Even though it’s a different Plane World, it seems the flaws of human nature are the sa."
"When faced with multiple accusations, people instinctively refute and argue against the accusations they find most serious."
"Your subconscious felt that sealing the Cultivation Realm was the greatest slander, and you defended against it, which ans possessing
was true!"
The Sage of Ti fell silent.
Soon, he regained his composure: "We can cooperate! I can give you all my lifelong knowledge, as long as you help
find a suitable body to possess! How about that cousin of yours? Don’t you have a feud with him? I can help you deal with him, it’s a win-win!"
This ti, the protagonist didn’t even pause his steps.
"Not of my race, surely different in heart!"
The protagonist said without turning back: "So, you might as well die!"
As if to confirm the Sage of Ti’s previous words, as the protagonist kept walking outward, the once brilliant rainbow colors gradually dimd.
The mont the protagonist stepped out of the Divine Hall’s gate, he glanced back, and the rainbow colors completely vanished.
"Should be dead, right?"
The protagonist frowned deeply, feeling extrely uneasy.
The protagonist’s cultivation level was far inferior to that of the Sage of Ti, making it impossible for him to understand the other’s Life Realm, nor could he determine if the other’s Divine Soul would truly dissipate.
"Little monk, you finally ca out!"
Just as the protagonist was thinking, he suddenly heard a weak, aged voice co through.
He turned his head to see the old monk’s Divine Soul had weakened to a re phantom, as if a slight breeze would scatter it!
"Ancestor, what’s happened to you?"
Seeing the old monk was about to die, a flicker of crimson gold shone in the protagonist’s eyes. Then, with a flick of his finger, a streak of crimson gold light entered the old monk’s Soul Body.
The old monk’s soul, originally so weak it was about to scatter, imdiately filled up and began to recover visibly.
This was the technique Prince Zhi had used before, leveraging the Dragon Domain’s properties from the Dragon God Technique to directly reverse the old monk’s Soul Body state.
The protagonist replicated the sa move, easily achieving Prince Zhi’s results.
Before entering the River of Ti, the protagonist couldn’t even perform a single Circulation of the Dragon God Technique. Now, he could effortlessly use the Dragon Domain.
If the Sage of Ti knew all this, he would realize that the protagonist wasn’t just peeking at Zhao Yi in the River of Ti, as he had claid.
Whoosh!
As the old monk’s Soul Body recovered, he let out a long breath.
He looked toward the direction of the palace, fear lingering in his heart: "Outside this palace’s gate, there’s a rainbow light Restriction. That Restriction can isolate Divine Souls. It just blocked
outside. If you’d co out a bit later, I would have dispersed by now!"
"There’s a Restriction in this Divine Hall?" The protagonist was slightly taken aback, then furrowed his brow even more, "The rainbow light Restriction, the Sage of Ti’s Divine Soul is also a mass of rainbow light! Was this palace’s Restriction set by him or used to restrict him?"
The old monk looked at the protagonist and asked, "Little monk, what are you thinking?"
The protagonist shook his head, suppressing the doubts in his heart.
The gap between him and the Sage of Ti was too vast.
Though the other had only a trace of Divine Soul, it wasn’t easy for the protagonist to deal with him.
If he couldn’t provoke, he should stay away.
With this in mind, the protagonist glanced around, determined the direction, and said to the old monk, "Ancestor, let’s go find the Arhat Fruit."
The old monk frowned, "But we don’t know where the Arhat Fruit is!"
"I already know!" The protagonist said calmly.
Hearing this, the old monk was slightly stunned, "You know?"
As he spoke, he puzzledly scrutinized the protagonist.
He wondered if it was his illusion, but the protagonist seed different from before!
The protagonist didn’t pay attention to the old monk’s changing expression.
After confirming the direction, he directly stepped out.
In a direction no one noticed, the protagonist’s eyes had an extra layer of red over the crimson gold glow.
If Zhao Yi were here, he would imdiately recognize that the red hue in the protagonist’s eyes was identical to the shadow of "Ancient" in his sea of consciousness.
After taking a hundred steps, the protagonist paused and looked back at the Divine Hall of Ti.
"Ancient Race... Otherworld... Sage?"
"ssenger!"
"Ha, am I selling out myself?"
