Have I already been surpassed by the Heavenly Dao?
Ever since Gu An had said those words, the Great Profound Yin Sovereign had been pondering this question.
He knew the Heavenly Emperor represented the Heavenly Dao. The stronger the Heavenly Dao, the stronger it proved the Heavenly Emperor to be. Could this new Heavenly Emperor have already become a Saint?
He could not accept that. He could only think that perhaps the Heavenly Dao's creation was inherently superior to him; otherwise, he would not have come to the Heavenly Dao to seek reincarnation.
Compared with him, Old Ancestor Honggan did not think so much. After all, Saints were far beyond reach to him; what he cared about more was how to become a Saint.
He fixed his attention on that young fiend who had inherited the Great Profound Yin Sovereign's power. After they left, the young fiend's life remained rough and full of setbacks, and did not undergo any great change because of his words.
Even after learning his own origins, his temperament had long since decided his fate.
The true point of change came a hundred years later. The young fiend was being hunted down and was on the verge of death. As he fell into a ten-thousand-zhang abyss, his consciousness encountered the Great Profound Yin Sovereign. After making his choice, he inherited the Great Profound Yin Sovereign's power. From that moment on, his life ushered in a transformation.
The young fiend cultivated in the abyss for a hundred years, shedding his old self and being reborn. The first thing he did after emerging into the world was take revenge.
But in the Mortal World, hatred never died. When old grudges dispersed, new grudges were bound to be added, and his life would step into even more twisting circumstances.
