The old man's voice wasn't just heard by Ji Zining; everyone present heard it.
Mo Shang and Xiao Jing watched as all the wronged spirits disappeared, then suddenly came to their senses.
They exchanged a glance, both seeing disbelief and deep confusion in each other's eyes.
He? Her? It?
What is He?
Who exactly is this "He," and what kind of being is he?
He actually dared to utter such a bold statement, willing to have all living beings in the Chaos perish with him!
Thinking of this, Mo Shang and the others focused their attention on Ji Zining.
Everyone's face was filled with a strong sense of inquiry.
They knew that Ji Zining was definitely aware of this matter, and they desperately wanted to know what that "He" was!
They had just come up with connections to other things related to the secret realm.
Devour, imprison!
The broken figure that represented Him last time deliberately let Mo Shang others go.
The purpose was to have Mo Shang others bring more living beings so that He could devour and recover!
To utter such words as "Let the entire Chaos perish with Him," if He were to recover...
This is a tremendous disaster for the entire True Martial Dao Domain, and even for the entire Chaos!
After all, only a strong person or someone with two arms can say such a thing.
The latter is clearly not what was done to keep those wronged souls imprisoned and unable to escape.
Ji Zining noticed their expressions, pondered for a moment, and then began to explain the cause and course of these events to them.
Now that everyone's here, there's no need to hide anything from them.
Moreover, their combat power is now approaching that of Quasi-Emperor, so they should indeed know some important things.
Although the inability to break through to the Great Emperor was incredibly cruel, Ji Zining felt it was necessary for them to know.
In the past Ji Zining couldn't bear it, fearing that their Dao hearts would be compromised.
Now Ji Zining understands them better and knows that they are not the kind of people who give up easily.
Knowing these things might be of more help to them.
After a long while.
Mo Shang and the others knew everything, and remained silent with their heads down.
Ji Zining watched this scene without disturbing them.
They need to accept, process, and overcome these things on their own!
He invaded the chaos, and the Great Emperor and powerful beings of All Heavens and Myriad Realms rushed to besiege and kill him.
Ultimately, all the Great Emperor fought to no avail, in order to protect their homeland.
All the powerful Great Emperor unanimously decided to end His life by self-destructing!
The self-destruction was earth-shattering, shaking the entire chaos and causing the complete laws to become incomplete, making it impossible for a Great Emperor to be born again.
Fortunately, thanks to the sacrifice of countless powerful Great Emperor and the damage to the Complete Law, He was slain!
Peace and tranquility were restored to All Heavens and Myriad Realms.
The only regret is that after the great war ended, no new Great Emperor or powerful figure was born in the All Heavens and Myriad Realms.
No matter how exceptionally talented or comparable to ancient or primordial geniuses,
His greatest achievement in life was only reaching the Peak Quasi-Emperor.
This is unfair to the prodigies, yet it seems to be an equal opportunity for all living beings.
Because no one, no living being, can become Great Emperor!
The one who was destroyed and killed was the same one that the old man with the wronged spirit had just sworn to make the entire Chaos pay with its life!
Mo Shang, Xiao Jing, and the others exchanged glances, seemingly sensing something, and each saw extremely complex emotions in the other's eyes.
Shock, horror, doubt, fear, worry, confusion...
All their emotions were now strangely intertwined, leaving them unsure of what to do.
After making eye contact, he subconsciously looked at Ji Zining again.
They were eager to know if their Divine Son Hall felt the same way they did when he first learned of this.
Have you ever experienced such complex and incomprehensible emotions?
Ji Zining did not respond to them, because at that moment she was searching for a way to enter the next place.
After they entered the main hall, there was no way forward.
At least the obvious path is gone.
Having arrived at this secret realm, Ji Zining naturally couldn't just leave empty-handed and without any gains.
Releasing those wronged souls was merely a side task, and we could inquire about the situation while we were at it.
Ji Zining stopped in front of a wall and smiled slightly.
"Got it!"
This section of the wall looked no different from the others, but Ji Zining could sense that...
Within this wall, there was a familiar yet utterly repulsive aura.
His breath!
Although this aura also exists in the main hall, it is not as strong as that inside this wall.
If all goes as expected, the next location is behind this wall.
Ji Zining enveloped her palm in spiritual energy and reached out to touch the wall.
A miraculous thing happened: when Ji Zining's palm touched the wall, she only felt a slight resistance.
Immediately afterwards, Ji Zining's hand disappeared into the wall.
Seeing this, Ji Zining withdrew her hand and shook her head.
"It's so unoriginal, just like that Yardang landform outside, using illusions."
"The only difference is that there's no teleportation power anymore."
"It seems this time the location is a little closer."
At this moment, Xiao Jing and Mo Shang came to their senses and, upon hearing Ji Zining's voice, quickly moved closer.
Ji Zining noticed their arrival, turned around, and smiled slightly at them.
"So, did it dampen your resolve?"
"But even if we manage to strike, it's probably too late. I've already said that, so I'll just have to ask you to bear with it."
Lin Shan pounded his chest loudly, then shook his head repeatedly.
"No, no, what His Divine Son Hall said actually made me realize something."
Hearing this, Ji Zining became curious and asked a question.
"Oh? What have you figured out?"
Lin Shan scratched his head and spoke up.
"This is just my own thought; Your Divine Son Hall, you mustn't laugh at me."
"In my current view, those powerful Great Emperor of the past are not as distant as we imagined."
"It seemed so distant before, because I didn't know such a factor existed that prevented all living beings from breaking through to the Great Emperor."
"Now we know, those Great Emperor simply had better conditions than us."
"If we had the same cultivation conditions as them, we might not be any worse than them!"
After glancing at everyone, Lin Shan said in a deep voice.
"On the contrary, I think it would be great if I could become emperor under these circumstances."
"Doesn't that directly surpass those legendary Great Emperor?"
"Just thinking about it is exciting!"
After speaking, Lin Shan's face showed the same excitement as his words.
After he finished speaking, the hall fell silent, and everyone nodded slightly.
Indeed, if they had been born in the same era as those Great Emperor, and possessed a cultivation environment that allowed them to break through to the level of Great Emperor,
They are not necessarily inferior to those Great Emperor!
A hint of admiration appeared in Li Chang'an's eyes, and he patted Lin Shan on the shoulder.
I didn't expect you to have this perspective. My previous understanding of you was one-sided, and I apologize.
Lin Shan waved his hand dismissively.
"I'm prepared to follow His Divine Son Hall, so there's nothing to apologize for."
Ji Zining herself and nodded approvingly at Lin Shan.
"Very good, then from now on, you shall all strive to break through to the Great Emperor!"
"As for us now... let's keep moving forward!"
