Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation Chapter 1146 - 1139: Interrogating Shen Dai
Shang, who was always as shocked and contemplative as others, furrowed his brow.
The na Di Xin truly unnerved him.
It could be said that if it weren't for a few of them joining forces, the First Universe wouldn't have the Ten Great Realm Masters, although now there are only nine.
Even if there were Ten Great Realm Masters, there was soone who controlled them all, and that was Di Xin.
Mo Yuantian, on the condition of being on equal footing with all the realm masters of the First Universe, gained everyone's support.
Under Mo Yuantian's sches and assaults, Di Xin was severely wounded and had to leave the First Universe.
However, this guy didn't co out empty-handed; he occupied the Chaos Center during the Vast Beginning.
From the Vast Beginning, the Ten Directions Universe was derived.
But the Chaos Center of the Vast Beginning shouldn't strictly be considered one of the Ten Directions Universe.
It rely rged with the Chaos Center as one of the universes evolved over ti.
Di Xin's idea was to use his Great Divine Power and great perseverance, along with the Chaos Center, to establish a place that didn't belong to the First Universe but wasn't weaker than it.
Now that Di Xin has returned to the First Universe, it ans he failed.
Di Xin's return presents two possibilities.
First, Di Xin failed to open a new universe but returned with even greater strength to seek revenge.
Second, he returned not for revenge, but to seize the First Universe.
If Di Xin didn't return for revenge, he would inevitably try to win over so realm masters.
Having cultivated to such a level, the demand for resources is even greater.
They have made further progress because they dominated the First Universe.
Also, since the First Universe is their very foundation of survival, they do not want outsiders to enter it.
Di Xin's return implies that another great war could very likely comnce.
Last ti he sided with Mo Yuantian, this ti he doesn't want to choose sides too early.
At least, he wants to see Di Xin before deciding whom to side with.
What Mo Yuantian promised to do back then was handled chaotically.
The good things were kept to himself, while the bad were thrown to others.
Superficially, everyone was of equal status, but in fact, Mo Yuantian was still the sole authority.
Like the Ten Thousand Veins Lake before him, other than Mo Yuantian, no one else could enter.
Even the Dao Soul Plate of others could only be seen by Mo Yuantian.
If it weren't for his own capabilities, his Great Dao might not even have progressed; it might have regressed.
While all the realm masters in the main hall harbored their own thoughts, a transmission light flickered, and Mo Yuantian's red-clad boy, Du Yuan, appeared in the hall.
In his hand, he was holding a man who had just regained his physical body, whose Taoist Aura was unstable.
Everyone in the hall recognized him, the cowardly Realm Master Shen Dai.
Indeed, he was a cowardly realm master, for Mo Yuantian's Daoist child could capture him. It was utterly humiliating.
When Shen Dai regained his composure, he hurriedly bowed in salute, "Shen Dai greets the Mo Realm Master and all the realm master brothers."
After speaking, he even consciously retreated to his realm master seat.
Indeed, there was a spot for him.
"Realm Master Shen, long ti no see. Your skin has grown thicker, hasn't it? Do you even qualify to sit here?" Qu Ba sarcastically remarked.
To know that Shen Dai just got captured, even if he were a realm master, there was no seat for him.
Shen Dai could only curse his luck inwardly. Originally, he didn't want to restore his physical body in his cave mansion.
But his Primordial Pool was in the cave mansion.
The Primordial Pool was the best place to condense and restore a physical body.
If he restored his physical body elsewhere, his strength would decrease by at least one level, and his cultivation would also drop.
The Primordial Pool was different; not only was the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi abundant, but it was also specifically for restoring physical bodies.
He basically had no more Cosmic Origin Veins left, so he had to rely on the Primordial Pool.
With the Opening Heaven Nine Bamboo, restoring his body in the Primordial Pool might not be much worse than his second physical body.
Moreover, he needed at most ten years to restore his body.
Once his body was restored, he would imdiately leave.
In fact, that was exactly what he did.
However, he was still captured by Mo Yuantian's Daoist child.
Saying it was Mo Yuantian's Daoist child capturing him was akin to saying Mo Yuantian captured him.
Perhaps from the start, he never escaped Mo Yuantian's sight.
Shen Dai took a deep breath, having followed Ding Huan for so long.
Though his cultivation degraded and his strength waned, his survival skills improved.
"Realm Master Qu, I, Shen Dai, am the Ninth Realm Master of the First Universe and have my place here. I may have arrived a bit late, but why can't I sit down?
Am I to be bullied just because my cultivation is weaker? Back when Mo Realm Master led us to defend the First Universe, he said we were all equal.
How co according to you, Realm Master Qu, I have no right to sit down?"
Shen Dai's tone was neither overbearing nor servile, even speaking with justified confidence.
He had seen through it.
Even if he acted humbly, he might still et his end.
Rather than ingratiating others, he might as well please himself.
He doesn't have Ding Huan's kind of ability, but can he at least learn to speak like Ding Huan?
Shang was really a bit surprised in his heart after hearing Shen Dai's words.
Over the years, Shen Dai hasn't made no progress at all.
Maybe Shen Dai's cultivation has dropped significantly over the years, but his way of speaking and handling things seems to have beco more impressive.
"Shen Dai, why did you not only fail to return after I issued the ssage for Realm Lords to gather, but also moved further away from Ten Thousand Veins Lake?"
Mo Yuantian looked at Shen Dai, his tone remained the sa as before, without any fluctuation.
Obviously, Shen Dai's previous distancing didn't take him out of Mo Yuantian's sight range.
Shen Dai stood up and bowed: "Mo Realm Master, I indeed got a little scared, I wanted to escape.
Because I killed Dou Ling, and I was worried that this gathering of Realm Lords was intended to hold accountable. I confess here."
"You killed Dou Ling?" Qu Ba looked at Shen Dai incredulously.
Although he's known for his ruthless killings, accomplishing the silent assassination of Dou Ling is beyond him.
Is Shen Dai really capable of killing Dou Ling? He just can't believe it.
Shen Dai said angrily: "Dou Ling took advantage of my injury from defending the First Universe Boundary to forcibly occupy my cave mansion.
When I returned, Dou Ling threatened and scolded . I am also a Realm Lord, and couldn't stand it, so I attacked Dou Ling…"
When Shen Dai said these things, his heart was very calm.
Anyway, in Mo Yuantian's mind, he already believed that Dou Ling was killed by Shen Dai, and at that ti, Mo Yuantian even inquired before Shen Dai's cave mansion.
"I believe Shen Jie Master did well. If soone dares to occupy my cave mansion, I'd slay them just the sa," Shang said indignantly.
Shang stepping out and saying this confounded everyone.
For a long ti, both Shang and Huo Shi have been known as nice guys.
Huo Shi's niceness is fake; if you offend Huo Shi, he will absolutely seek revenge no matter what.
Shang is different, Shang is broad-minded, even if you offend Shang making him suffer a loss, he wouldn't care.
Likewise, in most matters, Shang remains neutral.
His biggest hobby is collecting various cultivation resources and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
To stand up and speak for Shen Dai like this, clearly stating that Shen Dai's killing of Dou Ling was justified, was a first.
No one rebutted Shang's words.
Although in their eyes, Shen Dai deserved it, even if his cave mansion was occupied.
But with soone standing up to speak for Shen Dai, it was a different story.
Mo Yuantian nodded, "Shen Dai, if Dou Ling was indeed killed by you because he forcibly occupied your cave mansion, then it was deserved.
This matter isn't your fault. Let ask you another thing, are you aware of the Cosmic Origin Vein in Douling Cave Mansion being extracted?"
Mo Yuantian only said this because Dou Ling is dead; if Dou Ling were alive, Mo Yuantian would never have brought this up.
Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze once again fell on Shen Dai.
Shen Dai's tone beca sowhat uneasy: "Dear Realm Master brothers, I do know about this, but it wasn't ."
Shen Dai's words were unexpected to everyone.
No one thought Shen Dai truly knew about this matter.
"Speak then." Mo Yuantian's tone softened a bit.
Shen Dai said sorrowfully, "Because my body was shattered, when I returned to my cave mansion, I didn't notice soone had followed , and he wasn't a cultivator from the First Universe..."
"An external cultivator has entered the First Universe?" The voice of Ku Bai Zhen, the Eighth Realm Master, was very concerned.
His status is much higher than Shen Dai, and his strength is much greater, but he was seriously injured.
Thinking of how even Huo Shi had his physical body destroyed in his own cave mansion, what if this person targeted him?
Shen Dai nodded, "Yes, I killed an external cultivator nad Li Zhuojian at the edge of the First Universe Boundary.
That Li Zhuojian was very strong, and in the backlash, I got injured as well. It was at that mont that the person entered the First Universe, of which I was completely unaware.
Later, that person followed into my cave mansion, and I was still oblivious, his understanding of the Cosmic Origin Principle must be no less than that of the Realm Masters here.
I used a Forbidden Technique to sneak attack Dou Ling, and after killing him, I was imdiately controlled by him.
Only then did he seize my cave mansion, cultivating within it, leaving in fear."
What Shen Dai ant by saying that the person's understanding of the Cosmic Origin Principle was not inferior to the Realm Masters, was actually indicating that this person's understanding might surpass all present.
"Who is this person?" Mo Yuantian asked the question everyone wanted to ask.
"Ding Huan."
"Where is he now?"
Upon hearing this inquiry, Shen Dai replied as if giving up: "Ding Huan secluded himself in my cave mansion for many years.
Until one day, Huo Shi ca to my cave mansion, forcibly demanded to take Vast Great Stone, and ultimately destroyed my physical body and Primordial Spirit.
Ding Huan always hid in my cave mansion, and even when Huo Shi destroyed my physical body, he didn't intervene.
After Huo Shi left, Ding Huan continued his cultivation in my cave mansion.
I hid within the Vast Great Stone, pleading for him to seek out treasures to restore my body, but he refused.
Until one day, when his own Cosmic Origin Vein was depleted, he demanded that I take him into Douling Cave Mansion, and forcefully extracted the Cosmic Origin Vein from it.
The events that followed, you should be aware of. Ding Huan continued his seclusion in my cave mansion, and not long ago, he wanted to leave.
Before leaving, he even wanted a mountain of Cosmic Yuan Vein, and so he made take him to Lord Huo's cave mansion..."
Zuo Yang's voice tily addressed, "Lord Huo has brought it."
(Good night, fellow Daoist! Future updates will be around 7 p.m. daily.)
