1128: Eight hundred Heavenly Dao without compassion 1128: Eight hundred Heavenly Dao without compassion Underworld River’s Ancestor was truly envious, envious of Sanqing’s deep fortune and being the designated Saints by the heavens.
If it were soone else, losing the Evil Corpse would likely an they would never have the chance to beco a Primordial Daluo Jinxian, but the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign was different, using the Innate rit within his body, he forcefully attained Dao through rit and beca a Saint.
Such Pangu Heritage truly turns one green with envy.
Whoever obtains it can beco a Saint with it.
“So that’s how it is, that’s how it is!”
Having listened to Underworld River’s Ancestor explain the reasons behind it all, Jiang Chen understood everything—why the origins of the Primordial Heavenly Demon Lord were inscrutable, why his strength was so formidable, why the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign was constantly targeting him.
Now he understood it all.
The origins of the Primordial Heavenly Demon Lord were mysterious because he was the Evil Corpse of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, related to the Saint, and naturally no one could discern his origins.
His formidable strength was also naturally linked to his origins.
The strength of the three corpses is tied to the original body; the stronger the original body, the stronger the three corpses.
Of course, this strength cannot surpass the original body and cannot reach the realm of the Primordial Daluo Jinxian.
However, the three corpses of a Saint, influenced by the original body, can reach a strength infinitely close to that of a Primordial Daluo Jinxian, truly the pinnacle of Heaven and Earth.
Only top-level Innate Saints like Fuxi, Jade Emperor, and Zhen Yuanzi could rival the three corpses of a Saint.
Why the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign targets the Primordial Heavenly Demon Lord is even simpler; the Primordial Daluo Jinxian seek perfection, but with the loss of the Evil Corpse, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign’s perfection was marred, leaving a flaw in his Dao.
This flaw, thanks to the rit of opening the heavens, was temporarily imperceptible, but once the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign aspired to a higher realm, this flaw would erupt, becoming the greatest obstacle on his path to ascent.
Therefore, if the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign didn’t want to remain at the level of Saint forever, he definitely had to find a way to refine the Primordial Heavenly Demon Lord and regain his perfection.
However, from Jiang Chen’s perspective, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign’s desire to refine the Primordial Heavenly Demon Lord was probably not so simple.
The contingency left by the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, especially wasn’t so easy to deal with.
One wrong move could potentially cause even the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign to follow in the footsteps of the Demon Ancestor, ending in utter disgrace.
This point, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign saw even more clearly than Jiang Chen.
It was evident, since he had sealed the Primordial Heavenly Demon Lord but had never taken action to refine him.
If not for his concern of the Demon Ancestor, would he not have refined the Primordial Heavenly Demon Lord long ago?
Why else would he have let him remain until today?
…
……
“It truly is a secret of Heaven and Earth!”
Having heard all this, Jiang Chen no longer intended to keep listening.
He had heard enough of the gossip; now it was ti to discuss the real issues.
“What is it, Heavenly Demon Lord Friend, why have you stopped speaking?
Have I hit the nail on the head, leaving you with nothing to say?”
Over there, seeing Jiang Chen’s silence, Underworld River’s Ancestor’s tone grew increasingly more smug.
Spilling the deepest secret buried in his heart made him feel truly relieved from the inside out, so his forrly deadened heart began to liven up gradually.
Yet, in an instant, Jiang Chen’s response caused the freshly invigorated heart of Underworld River’s Ancestor to plumt into an ice cave.
“Splendid, truly splendid.”
“If not for Ancestor, I wouldn’t be privy to such secrets of Heaven and Earth.”
Jiang Chen’s voice arose from within Underworld River’s Ancestor’s very soul, giving him quite the scare.
“You are…”
Hearing this familiar voice, Underworld River’s Ancestor’s face changed dramatically, with an expression of disbelief.
“Impossible…”
“It can’t be him, why would he, with his current status, co here to see ?”
With that, Underworld River’s Ancestor gradually cald down and said with an icy tone:
“Heavenly Demon Lord, what an impressive trick, to use a Divine Ability that exploits the weaknesses within one’s heart, it’s truly hard to guard against.
If not for my awareness of that person’s present identity, there’s no way he would appear here.
You almost had fooled with your ploy.”
Underworld River’s Ancestor sneered, believing he had seen through the Primordial Heavenly Demon Lord’s ruse, not thinking that Jiang Chen would co to see him, assuming that it was the Primordial Heavenly Demon Lord pretending to be Jiang Chen.
“…”
Jiang Chen internally rolled his eyes, not expecting that revealing his identity would not only fail to earn Underworld River’s Ancestor’s trust but even cause him to beco suspicious.
“Humph humph…”
“Heavenly Demon Lord, even if you pretend to be soone else, you should at least choose soone believable.
Only then would it appear credible.
To impersonate soone who would never co here—do you really think I’m fooled?”
Underworld River’s Ancestor laughed coldly again and again.
Initially, after hearing Jiang Chen’s voice, he was genuinely startled.
After all, although what he had said earlier was the truth, it involved the private matters of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign.
If word got out, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign would surely seek retribution from him.
But on reflection, he thought it impossible.
How could Jiang Chen co here in his current position?
Previously, Underworld River’s Ancestor chose to cooperate with Jiang Chen based on the assumption that Jiang Chen would absolutely beco an enemy of the Two Saints of the West.
But now, things have changed, Jiang Chen’s future has shifted, and it’s no longer certain he would be an enemy of the Two Saints.
With this, the foundation for their cooperation was gone; naturally, Jiang Chen wouldn’t co to visit him anymore.
After all, Underworld River’s Ancestor was a sworn enemy of the Two Saints of the West.
If Jiang Chen’s future was indeed destined to clash with the Two Saints, then to counter them, he would never overlook such an advantage, and would try everything to rescue him.
But if Jiang Chen wasn’t going to be an enemy of the Two Saints, then there was no need to risk offending the Two Saints to save him—it just wasn’t worth it.
