Su Yang looked calm and raised the corners of his lips slightly. "That's because Tiandao deliberately erased this name."
"Have you ever thought about why Primordial World is the number of the heavenly law of forty-nine, not the perfect fifty?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was silent. Both the quasi-sage and the two Heavenly Dao Sage, Sect Master Tongtian and Empress Nuwa, all listened attentively.
"The fixed number of heaven is four and nine. This is the common sense of the laws of heaven and earth."
"But if it is really an ironclad law, how can there be any doubt? Is there something hidden behind it?"
"Mister Su talks about Beast Emperor Shen Ni on the front foot, and mentions the number of heaven on the back foot. Is there a connection between the two? Four-nine is the ultimate, which is a universally recognized principle in the cultivation world. Why bother asking?"
Everyone kept talking, but Sect Master Tongtian looked deeply and finally said, "It's because 'the 'One' that Escaped' is missing."
"Legend has it that there are fifty great avenues, and Heaven has forty-nine of them. Primordial World was born from chaos, and originally inherited all the great avenues. However, due to the lack of that one, Tianji was incomplete, so there are only forty-nine left."
He paused and looked at Su Yang: "It is precisely because of this departure that the rules of heaven and earth cannot be perfected. The so-called extreme numbers are actually residual numbers."
Su Yang nodded slightly, with approval in his eyes. "Sage Tongtian, your insights are extraordinary."
Then, he looked around and said in a low and clear voice, "But there is another question. Do you know why the original complete number of fifty is missing that one?"
The air seemed to freeze. No one answered.
"There were originally fifty Heavenly Dao, but now there are only forty-nine left. One of them is missing. Why?"
After these words fell, all the great masters remained silent. Many eyes wandered in the void, seeming to be thinking, but also seeming not to dare to touch the deep secrets.
"Could it be... that's really the case?"
Sect Master Tongtian and Empress Nuwa were shocked at the same time. A vague shadow passed through their minds, as if they had touched some taboo truth. Their eyes met, and without words, they could see the shock and uneasiness in each other's eyes.
Their eyes slowly turned to Su Yang, their breathing was stagnant, and their hearts were filled with turmoil.
Su Yang looked around and saw that everyone was silent. Only Tongtian and Nuwa looked strange, so he smiled softly and stopped covering up.
"It seems that some people have realized something, while others are still confused."
He closed the folding fan in his hand and his expression turned solemn.
"In this case, I won't hide it anymore."
The world seemed to be silent as he spoke, and all eyes were focused on him.
"That the 'One' that Escaped did not dissipate naturally, but was taken away. Primordial World's transformation from fifty to forty-nine was caused by one person."
Everyone held their breath.
"That man is the source of the evil beast's catastrophe, Beast God Shen Ni."
The moment the words fell, the sky trembled, and countless powerful minds were shaken. Even Sect Master Tongtian and Empress Nuwa could not hide the shock on their faces.
Is there anything missing from the way of heaven that is related to this person?
The four words "Beast God Shen Ni" were like thunder, and many powerful people had never heard of this name. But when they felt the thunderclouds surging in the sky and Five Decays of Heaven and Man quietly emerged, no one dared to say that this was a lie.
" What is the truth about what Mister Su said? Is it because of this beast god that the way of heaven is incomplete?"
"Shen Ni can actually shake the foundation of heaven? What kind of existence does he have?"
"Although I don't know its name, the celestial phenomenon warns that a disaster is coming. Mister Su will never make such remarks without reason."
"So, Beast God Shen Ni did exist in Primordial World? And because of his actions, a link to the way of heaven was permanently missing?"
Sect Master Tongtian and Empress Nuwa breathed slightly, and there was an undercurrent between their eyes. Sect Master Tongtian's eyes trembled, as if seeing an unprecedented secret, and finally said, "Mister Su, is that Beast Emperor Shen Ni the person in charge of 'the 'One' that Escaped'?"
"Exactly."
Su Yang nodded lightly, with a sound like falling rocks in a cold pond, "Primordial World Since the beginning of the world, the theory of 'the 'One' that Escaped' has been circulated. Countless strong people have spent years chasing its traces, but to no avail."
He paused, glanced at everyone, and said in a calm but unquestionable tone, "Today I will bluntly say that 'the 'One' that Escaped' is indeed in the hands of Beast God Shen Ni."
"This person is Primordial World who was the first to set foot on the avenue. He is far older and more unfathomable than Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Qiankun Ancestor, and Yin-Yang Ancestor."
As soon as the four words "the 'One' that Escaped" came out, the void seemed to tremble.
According to rumors, whoever gets this opportunity can establish another holy position and break the decree of heaven.
In the past year, Zixiao Palace gave three sermons, and Hongjun first mentioned the Saint road. He once said that there are nine seats of saints in heaven and earth. Even if he occupies one of them, there are still eight seats left.
But since "the 'One' that Escaped" disappeared, the number of saints dropped sharply to seven. After Hongyun the Daoist fell, a streak of Primordial Violet Qi disappeared, and the number of Saint has since solidified.
From the time when the Six Saints stood side by side until now, there has been no increase or decrease. The pattern of the way of heaven is like an iron law.
But now, Su Yang has revealed the truth that the lost "one" has long fallen into the hands of Beast Emperor Shen Ni!
"Mister Su, if this is true, Beast Emperor Shen Ni has shaken Heavenly Dao Power, why is he missing? Where is he now?"
"Yes, since he once dominated the catastrophe of ferocious beasts and controlled 'the 'One' that Escaped', how could he remain silent? Please tell us where he is!"
All the powerful officials were waiting with their eyes fixed on Su Yang.
Su Yang raised the corner of his mouth slightly and smiled calmly, "You may have some guesses in your mind, and I don't need to cover it up."
"Beast God Shen Ni, who was born on the occasion of Chaos First Divided and caused the catastrophe of the beast, has not died."
"He is just hiding in Deep Chaos, perhaps looking down at Primordial World with cold eyes, waiting for the opportunity, just waiting to return to this world and overturn the old world."
"Beast Emperor Shen Ni is indeed an existence that can subvert the world."
"Who can deny this? Primordial World is vast and boundless, and there are countless powerful people. Those who can truly touch the secret of 'the 'One' that Escaped' may not even be able to catch up with the existence of Quasi-Sage Peak."
"Beast Emperor Shen Ni, who has mastered the chance of transcendence, is by no means an ordinary character. He is the core figure in the first Immeasurable Kalpa since World Creation, and he is the existence that caused a storm when the world was first in chaos."
"Who would have thought that Mister Su would actually reveal the news that the person was not really destroyed."
"Deep Chaos, there is such a terrifying existence lurking that can seize the power of heaven and take away the "one" that should not be controlled by humans. Beast Emperor Shen Ni, the name itself is like a taboo."
Many Great Divine Ability User's eyes were shocked and their expressions were solemn.
Before he finished speaking, thunderclouds surged high in the sky, layer upon layer converging into an endless expanse Sea of Lightning.
The thunder roared with the power of World-Destroying, as if a divine punishment was about to end all souls.
"Is the name Beast Emperor Shen Ni intolerable even to Heaven? If he hadn't caused the destruction of Heaven and there were only forty-nine left, how could the mention of his name trigger such a huge power of punishment?"
A powerful man murmured in a low voice, looking up at the sky, his eyes full of awe.
The strange thing is that the thunder in the sky did not fall down immediately. Instead, it continued to accumulate and roll in the air, as if waiting for some kind of opportunity.
By this time, many strong men in Primordial World already knew that the thunder of heaven was no real threat to Su Yang.
They no longer worry or sweat over Su Yang.
Because they know that even if Su Yang cannot resist, Sect Master Tongtian and Empress Nuwa will definitely protect each other.
A deeper situation has already emerged: Sect Master Tongtian, Empress Nuwa, and even Empress Houtu in the underworld have quietly sided with Su Yang.
Because of this, everyone is calm and has no fear.
Even if heaven's punishment comes, they feel that it is just a bluff and cannot make real waves.
Su Yang looked calm, raised his head and glanced at the thundercloud that was still brewing, and then slowly said, "You must have questions in your mind, what level has Beast Emperor Shen Ni reached?"
