Chapter 1018: Chapter 1016: the Ancestral Shaman, Hou Tu, and the Earthly Sovereign 3
Dream Dao Attainment: Opening Scheme Against Cultivators
Dream-Making Expert
It can’t be!
Just like the Dao-Fusion Realm powerhouses of the Myriad Realms, before they discovered that there were other cosmos beyond their own.
The Dao-Sacrifice Realm above the Dao-Fusion Realm did not exist.
Because you cannot be aware of a higher realm, a greater cosmos.
How then could you resolutely abandon everything, at the cost of destroying the cosmos and burying all things, to pursue that higher realm and greater cosmos whose existence you do not even know?
The Supremes are not gamblers.
They possess supreme wisdom and supreme power.
They can be eternally undying, eternally at ease, regarding all living beings of the cosmos as playthings and ants.
Such Supremes absolutely would not stake everything on a target that is ethereal and utterly uncertain.
Unless that target is not ethereal.
Unless They truly have some certainty.
And where does that certainty come from?
Of course, it is because They genuinely found Earth, from the memories of the Ancient Earthly Sovereign.
It is just that They cannot reach it.
So They chose to pursue a higher realm and greater power at any cost.
And how can one be certain that a place They cannot reach, but which must truly exist, really exists?
Of course, it is because They discovered a second lifeform from that place.
A single instance proves nothing.
But with a second instance to verify it.
Then no matter how absurd the truth is, there is still evidence that can be verified and accepted.
And if this second instance was personally verified by Them right under Their very noses.
Then it becomes even easier to accept.
After understanding this logic.
Lin Qi knew that he absolutely could not possibly be merely a reincarnation of a wisp of the Ancient Earthly Sovereign’s memory.
Because relying solely on the Ancient Earthly Sovereign — this one suspected transmigrator from Earth — it would absolutely be impossible to drive the Supremes of All Heavens so mad, to spare no cost.
So when the current Wu Ancestor claimed to have awakened a wisp of the Ancient Earthly Sovereign’s memory.
And even wanted to lead him down the wrong path of believing that he too was merely a reincarnation of a wisp of the Ancient Earthly Sovereign’s memory.
Lin Qi genuinely felt that his intelligence was being insulted.
Damn it.
Those damned Undying Wa Huang and the others — did They really look down on him this much?
Did They really think he would fall for such a trick?
Under the current crumbling situation where the Great Destruction had already completely swept across the Myriad Realms.
He would still invest massive amounts of energy and time into proving that he was not the Ancient Earthly Sovereign?
That was just too fucking insulting.
Lin Qi’s gaze turned cold. He wanted to act and suppress the Wu Ancestor.
The Ancestral Shaman Inheritance left behind by Houtu — he could gladly accept it.
But wanting him to acknowledge the Wu Ancestor before him as the Ancient Earthly Sovereign, and even believe that he himself was merely a reincarnation of a wisp of the Ancient Earthly Sovereign’s memory.
Then he could only respectfully decline.
No, this kind of insult — it was better to just beat him to death.
Sensing the killing intent that suddenly rose in Lin Qi, the Wu Ancestor frowned.
“I know this is hard for you to accept.”
“But I said I have a way to prove it.”
“As long as you come with me to the Ancestral Shaman Inheritance Grounds left behind by Junior Sister Houtu.”
“You will naturally understand everything…”
“What is your surname?”
Lin Qi forcibly suppressed the urge to beat the Wu Ancestor to death and waved his hand to cut him off.
The Wu Ancestor was first stunned, then displeased. “Of course my surname is Lin…”
“Hmph.”
“What tier are you!”
“To dare share a surname with This Venerable!”
“You deserve a beating!”
Lin Qi backhanded out the Empress Wa Banner and struck with overwhelming force.
The Empress Wa Banner swayed the heavens, the Emperor Weapon’s supreme power reviving to its extreme, possessing the supreme power to suppress all things.
The Wu Ancestor was sent flying on the spot, coughing blood in large mouthfuls, shocked and furious.
Lin Qi held the Empress Wa Banner, strong and domineering, looking down at the Wu Ancestor from above.
“Empty words prove nothing.”
“If you truly have a way to prove what you say.”
“Then go bring the evidence and prove it to This Venerable.”
“Otherwise.”
“If you dare spout nonsense again, This Venerable will kill you!”
The Wu Ancestor coughed blood in large mouthfuls, glaring at Lin Qi in shock and fury. “You bastard, I am at least your Senior, and you actually… pfft!”
Lin Qi backhanded waved the Empress Wa Banner, again beating the Wu Ancestor until he coughed blood.
“This Venerable will say it one more time.”
“If you have evidence, take it out.”
“If you don’t, then shut your mouth!”
The Wu Ancestor coughed blood in shock and fury, staring fixedly at Lin Qi, but ultimately forcibly suppressed his rage and spoke.
“I said it.”
“As long as you come with me to the Ancestral Shaman Inheritance Grounds left behind by Junior Sister Houtu, I will naturally have a way to prove it.”
“This Venerable does not have the time to accompany you to some Ancestral Shaman Inheritance Grounds.”
Lin Qi sneered.
“Go make the trip yourself. Bring back the Ancestral Shaman Inheritance left behind by Houtu, and your so-called evidence.”
“If it is truly as you say, This Venerable will naturally apologize to you.”
“But if there is none.”
“Then do not blame This Venerable for being merciless.”
“You!”
The Wu Ancestor was furious and flustered. “If I had a way to go alone and obtain the Ancestral Shaman Inheritance left behind by Junior Sister Houtu, wouldn’t I have just fucking brought it here already!”
“That is your problem.”
Lin Qi’s gaze was indifferent. He waved the Empress Wa Banner again, directly sending the Wu Ancestor flying out of the Demon Court.
“Figure it out yourself.”
“This Venerable gives you three months.”
“If you cannot solve it.”
“You, are dead!”
“Fuck your uncle!”
The Wu Ancestor panicked, so anxious that he stood outside the Heavenly Gate and erupted into a silent storm of profanity.
But Lin Qi no longer paid him any attention.
After using the Empress Wa Banner to once again seal the Demon Court’s Heavenly Gate, he descended from the clouds.
He saw Fang Yun and Wang Ling, who had been hiding just one wall away, pricking up their ears to eavesdrop.
He descended coldly, looking at his two foolish disciples.
Fang Yun wore a face full of unease, smiling awkwardly, trying to explain.
But Wang Ling immediately said.
“How can you be so rash with such an important matter!”
“Whether true or false, you should naturally go personally and verify it…”
The disciple he had chosen himself. Do not be angry. Do not be angry.
Lin Qi suppressed the urge to beat Wang Ling into a pig’s head.
Damn it.
Why had he never realized before that Wang Ling was this stupid?
“Junior Brother, stop talking.”
“Master has his own arrangements.”
Seeing Lin Qi’s expression turn unfriendly, Fang Yun hurriedly reached out to cover Wang Ling’s mouth, quickly changing the subject with a smile.
“By the way.”
“Master, do you still remember that Thunder Bird Bubu you once took as a spirit pet?”
Thunder Bird Bubu?
Lin Qi was slightly stunned. It had been a long time since anyone had mentioned that rebellious dead bird in front of him.
Hm.
Was that Thunder Bird Bubu still alive?
“Is Bubu coming back?”
Wang Ling could not help but ask.
Lin Qi only then understood that Wang Ling had not come alone to the Heaven Demon Macrocosm to find Fang Yun back then.
Thunder Bird Bubu had come along as well.
But later, Wang Ling was never able to break through to the Nascent Soul. His lifespan was nearing its end, and to prolong his life he could only lie in that Jade Coffin year-round, like a living dead man.
So after accompanying Wang Ling for many years.
Thunder Bird Bubu could no longer bear Wang Ling’s living-dead situation.
And decided to leave the Heaven Demon Macrocosm, traveling many times to other cosmos to find more life-extending spirit medicines for Wang Ling.
The last time it left was nearly a hundred years ago now.
“Mm.”
“According to the time agreed upon with Bubu before.”
“If nothing unexpected happens, it should return in a few days.”
