Chapter 1031 The Culprit – Shi Daoren
“You’re actually still alive…”
The True Person Mingde’s expression was shaken, and his usually calm demeanor now had a hint of voice cracking.
He recognized the other person’s voice and knew their identity!
Time Daoist!
One of the human Dao sect’s giants, who was once a member of the Boundary Keeper organization!
However, after the ancient catastrophe, this person actually attempted to seize the power of the Yellow Mountain dragon vein.
The former Governor of Yangzhou—Nine Absolute Elder—was killed by his treachery!
Back then, just after the ancient catastrophe ended, the world was damaged, and the Age of Decline began. Many cultivators fled to the Spirit Realm, and everything was in chaos. Just as the nine governors were exhausted mentally and physically,
Time Daoist, for his own selfish desires, attempted to seize the dragon vein!
Nine Absolute Elder desperately tried to stop him but was no match and was killed. In his final moments, he used all his origin power to seal the Yangzhou dragon vein, preventing Time Daoist from succeeding.
Shortly after,
The human leadership was shocked,
Many experts surrounded and attacked Time Daoist, eventually severely wounding him, leaving only a wisp of his soul to escape into a time-space fracture, disappearing without a trace.
After so many years, everyone thought he was dead, but unexpectedly, he hadn’t died and had returned today after ten thousand years!
“Fellow Daoist Mingde, if we count the time, it’s been over ten thousand years since we last met, right?”
Time Daoist removed the black mask from his face, revealing an extremely pale yet youthful face.
His voice was weathered, but his physical form was actually that of a young man, and there wasn’t the slightest fluctuation of energy around his body, as if he were just an ordinary, severely anemic mortal suffering from a serious illness.
“Your soul secretly recovered and you possessed someone else’s body?”
True Person Mingde’s expression was very solemn.
Time Daoist’s strength was unfathomable. Back then, to kill him, four governors had to take action, and even then he escaped, with a wisp of his soul entering a time-space fracture!
Now that Time Daoist had returned, he must have absolute confidence in victory, otherwise he wouldn’t dare to appear before him!
“What do you mean by possession? This body is the result of a thousand years of effort, finding a hundred talented individuals, removing their organs and tissues one by one, and then refining them!”
“Currently, it’s the most suitable body to contain my soul!”
Time Daoist smiled slightly.
With his pale complexion, his smile appeared quite eerie, causing everyone around to suddenly feel a chill.
Even Sea Jiao, Old Ba Ga, and Murong Zhiyuan felt somewhat terrified.
Cutting out tissues from a hundred talented individuals to piece together a true body?
This sounded shocking.
“Swoosh…”
True Person Mingde secretly pointed a finger,
Intending to send out the news that Time Daoist was still alive.
He wasn’t confident in dealing with this person, so he wanted to call for help!
But unexpectedly,
That streak of information light flew from his fingertip but soon hit a transparent barrier and dissipated.
“This is…”
True Person Mingde’s pupils contracted slightly.
“Don’t bother struggling. This area has been concealed by me using the Nine Absolute Book. Even the Heavenly Dao would find it difficult to peer in. If you want to send a message outside, there’s only one way!”
“That is to defeat me!”
Time Daoist still wore that creepy smile on his face.
He was too calm; every move he made appeared amiable, but often, this kind of demeanor made people’s spines chill.
“Hum!”
The true form of the Nine Absolute Book appeared,
Its wide pages covered the sky, even blocking the blazing sun, causing the depths of the Yellow Mountain range to suddenly darken.
This was the function of the Nine Absolute Book!
It could isolate all paths of heaven and earth, create time-space fractures, and form its own space. Its function was similar to the Ice and Snow Clan’s sacred object, the Heart of Ice and Snow, but it was much more precious!
The treasured possession of Nine Absolute Elder had fallen into Time Daoist’s hands.
At this moment,
True Person Mingde’s heart sank to the bottom,
Because without absolute certainty, Time Daoist wouldn’t act this way.
Wu Wencheng, Wu Yangshuo, and others didn’t yet know how terrifying Time Daoist was, and immediately carefully inquired. After learning about Time Daoist from True Person Mingde, they all couldn’t help but gasp in shock!
Not to mention anything else,
Just the fact that he had killed the Yangzhou Governor in a one-on-one battle was enough to shock everyone.
“A true hero doesn’t boast about past achievements!”
“Though I was strong back then, wasn’t I still defeated by you all?”
“It’s just that a stronger version of me has returned now…”
Time Daoist wasn’t in a hurry to make a move; instead, he chatted with True Person Mingde as if meeting an old friend he hadn’t seen in a long time.
He had been lonely for too long!
Over ten thousand years, like a stinking rat in a sewer, hiding everywhere, never seeing the light of day!
But from today onwards,
He, Time Daoist, would return once more. After killing everyone present and refining the Yangzhou dragon vein, he would become even stronger, perhaps even having the hope of stepping into the sixth class.
“I’m really happy! Over ten thousand years, Fellow Daoist Mingde, do you know how I survived?”
“After I refine the dragon vein here and break through to the sixth class, I will officially emerge and walk the world. No one under heaven will be able to do anything to me! The era of Time Daoist is coming!”
Time Daoist was so excited that his body trembled.
“Dream on!”
True Person Mingde’s expression was ice-cold.
The Nine States dragon veins were tied to the fate of humanity and absolutely could not be damaged.
“Fellow Daoist Mingde, I’ve always considered you my best friend. Back then, you didn’t participate in the siege against me! Now I’m giving you a chance. As long as you don’t stand in my way today, I’ll still consider you a friend. From now on, you’ll be second only to me, above all others!”
Time Daoist spoke very sincerely.
“You should know, I don’t want to be too extreme. After all, if I want to lead the entire human race in the future, I still need the support of a few trustworthy people. Of course, the four governors who attacked me back then must die!!! I hope you understand.”
Time Daoist was very talkative,
As if wanting to say all the words he hadn’t spoken in over ten thousand years at once.
“Time Daoist, why waste so many words with him? Wouldn’t it be better to kill these people and directly seize the dragon vein?”
Sea Jiao, seeing the situation reverse, couldn’t help but show a bloodthirsty expression.
Very excited!
He hadn’t expected this mysterious old man to be the legendary Time Daoist!
This person could briefly control the flow of time, and during the ancient catastrophe, he was a headache for many divine races.
“Pfft!”
Time Daoist suddenly made his move, his sickly white arm easily piercing through Sea Jiao’s heart from behind, spraying a stream of blood.
Then,
Another pfft sound.
Time Daoist withdrew his hand, and in his pale palm was Sea Jiao’s still-beating heart.
He put the heart into his mouth, as if savoring some earthly delicacy, chewing minutely, with lines of fresh blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, leaving everyone present in a state of shock.
