Wang Baole's mind roared, and waves of shock surged through his mind. Given his level of cultivation and experience, it should have been impossible for him to be so shaken.
However, the scene before his eyes was completely beyond his expectations. It caused Wang Baole's mind to be thrown into confusion at that moment.
The king spirit's appearance was exactly the same as his.
The answer that this represented made Wang Baole's breathing quicken as he pondered for a moment.
There wasn't enough time for him to think too much about it. He looked deeply at the emperor spirit's face, which was now nothing more than a paper mask. Then, as he retreated, Wang Baole slammed into the golden net behind him.
An earth-shattering boom rang out, and Wang Baole tore a hole in the net. Then, like a bolt of lightning, he shot out of the net.
Wang Baole's speed reached its peak in an instant, and he disappeared into the red mist outside. As he flew out, Wang Baole retracted his cultivation, and his aura was completely concealed. The monarch spirits that had chased him out of the net lost track of Wang Baole after a short distance.
It was as if they couldn't lock onto him. After searching for a while, they gradually calmed down and disappeared into the red mist.
As for Wang Baole, after concealing his aura, he sped through the red mist. It was as if he had a precise target in mind. In reality, though, he couldn't erase any of the faces of the emperor spirit from his mind.
"Something's very wrong!"
"First of all … according to my previous analysis, the emperor spirit is an incomplete fourth step cultivator. More accurately, the emperor spirit is something like a puppet, and its source … is the emperor himself.
"Then we can infer that the spirit is a part of the emperor."
"This also explains why there are so many fourth step cultivators here. After all, as an Imperial Emperor, if he can split 100,000 Divine Consciousnesses into 100,000 Vast Expanse Dao Domains, then … it's not surprising that so many puppets would appear here."
"As for why he looks exactly like me … there are two possibilities." Wang Baole narrowed his eyes, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
"The first possibility is that in order to resist the Wood Tribulation of the Five Elements, the Emperor spread out a hundred thousand Dao Domains. Other than the Stone Tablet Realm that I am in, the other ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Dao Domains all became his Dao Fruits because of his success."
"Each and every one of these Dao Fruits is an emperor spirit. The reason why they look like me is because … unless something unexpected happened, I would be a part of them. They are me, and I am them …."
Wang Baole was silent. He thought that this deduction was reasonable, but for some reason, he couldn't help but think of a second possibility.
"What does the Celestial Emperor's true form look like …? Could it be that he looks exactly like me …?" Wang Baole was unwilling and did not dare to think too deeply about this possibility. Thus, after a long period of silence, he took a deep breath.
"The second possibility is just me imagining things. It can't be true …. It can't be true!" Wang Baole closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them. Burying his thoughts deep in his heart, he waved his right hand to release the young man who had been hiding in his sleeve.
At first, the young man looked confused, but then he thought back to what had just happened. His face fell, and he looked around. When he realized that there were no emperor spirits around, his jaw dropped, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Then he realized that Wang Baole was completely unharmed.
"Senior …."
Wang Baole looked at the young man and calmly said, "Tell me, what is this ancient you were talking about? Also, tell me how to get into your world!"
Wang Baole's calm words put a lot of pressure on the young man. By now, he knew that this person in front of him was not an ancient person who had awakened. He was from the outside world, and was terrifyingly powerful.
Most likely, a single glance from him would be enough to kill him.
The young man didn't dare to hide anything from someone like this, nor did he dare to harbor any distracting thoughts. He did his best to appear obedient and obedient, and then proceeded to explain everything he knew.
The young man didn't know about Origin Universe Dao Kong, nor did he know what world he was in. From the outside world, there were 108 universes, but as far as he knew, there was only one continent.
The continent was boundless, and according to legend, very few people had ever reached the end of the world.
However, this world, which few people had ever reached, wasn't actually a single level. According to what the young man had learned, the world was divided into three levels.
The first level was called the Sleeping World.
The second level was called the World.
The third level was called the Burial World.
The young man lived in the second level. As for the first level, it was a legend to him, and he had never been there. However, according to the young man, it was a world where emperor spirits lived.
As for where they were now, according to the young man, they were in between the second and third levels. Below them was the Burial Realm, and the ancient people came from the Burial Realm.
There were many legends about the Burial World. One of the most popular was that it had once been different from what it was now. It was a place filled with countless Daos, and powerful experts were as common as the clouds.
However, in an unknown catastrophe, everything of the past was buried, and the Burial World was formed. Not only were civilizations buried there, but the cultivators of the past were buried as well.
Although most of the cultivators were transformed into withered bones, there were still some who remained in a state of hibernation. One by one, they awoke, left the Burial World, and wandered to the world of the second level.
These people were known as the Ancients, and each and every one of them was incredibly powerful.
"Therefore, the Ancients formed the third major power in the world of the second level. We call their power … the Ancient Epoch City.
"As for the other two main forces, they are the Seven Main Branches formed by the seven emotions of joy, anger, worry, thought, sorrow, fear, and shock. The other is the Six Great Desires City, which cultivates the Six Desires."
"Senior, I am a cultivator from the Dao of Joy, one of the Seven Emotions.
"As for the singer from before, he is a cultivator from the Six Desires Cities, one of the Six Desires Cities!
"Because the Lord of the Dao of Joy was suppressed by the Lord of the Desire Cities, the Dao of Joy declined, and the various branches could only go into hiding and barely survive.
"As for how to leave this place and enter the world of the second level, it is very simple for us. All we need to do is stimulate the natural laws of the Dao we cultivate, and then the natural laws will guide us in." With that, the young man stole a glance at Wang Baole, and then hesitated.
Wang Baole was lost in thought. He had tried many methods in the past, but had been unable to leave the misty area. Now, it seemed that the natural laws were different, and he couldn't be guided in.
Even as Wang Baole was lost in thought, the young man seemed to be weighing the pros and cons. Then, he clenched his teeth and spoke.
"Senior, if you wish to enter the world of the second level, you must cultivate the natural laws required. Junior is willing to split a strand of my Dao of Joy and turn it into a seed, which can be given to senior for cultivation enlightenment."
