"Discussing the Dao with the Dao itself, it seems Fellow Daoist Ming's Azure Lotus Shadow has already reached such a level."
Someone spoke slowly.
Though the scene had not frozen solid, it was not much better.
Another chessboard suddenly condensed into existence.
"Now that Heaven and Earth have fallen into Variable Fate, Fellow Daoist, do not delay matters on the road ahead."
Someone else offered a reminder.
Since they had entered a link in Heaven and Earth's Variable Fate, whether the Supreme Treasure would still return to the Divine Path was worth pondering deeply.
After all, they had not claimed it for themselves.
With the Divine Path's current Providence, trying to contend against Heaven and Earth, against the Great Dao's fortune flowing unseen through the dark, was no different from striking a stone with an egg. The loss would outweigh the gain.
Not to mention that once it became a Variable Fate, even the Demon Land of the Ancient Demon Sect had changed in such a way. Such a transformation in a Divine Path Supreme Treasure was unexpected, yet also perfectly reasonable.
This God-Man projection understood that as well.
After withdrawing the Great Dao, the scene returned to calm.
"Beyond each gate lies something different. With such differences, they should likewise spur a Providence Transformation."
"Let us proceed as agreed before. Let the disciples and inheritors beneath our seats act according to their own abilities."
"There are dangers behind the gates. Several auras are profoundly hidden; relying on them alone, I fear they may fall short."
"That may not necessarily be so, Fellow Daoist. Though they are deeply hidden, it is merely Heavenly Secrets obscuring them. I have divined a hexagram of reversal after extremity. It will depend on their Fortune Dao."
When misfortune reached its limit, fortune would return.
