When they saw this, even the nine Dynasts on Su Ming's lotus platform took a few steps back and looked towards the person who had returned from the Barren Lands of Divine Essence. If this person's words could stir up a huge storm in Profound Sky Dao, then to the nine of them, it would naturally be for the best.
If that was the case, they might be able to remove Dao Kong's right to be a Dynast. From then on, in the future, they would have one less Dynast who could threaten them with equal status.
After all, the path from a Dynast to the master of True Morning Dao World was filled with twists and turns. The nine of them might be Dynasts, but in truth, there were three Hidden Dynasts behind them.
The three Hidden Dynasts had unfathomable levels of cultivation. It was said that each of them was a Master of Fate, Lives, and Death. It was a pity that no one knew who they were, but based on Morning Dao Sect's rules, when the ten Great Dynasts appeared, the three Hidden Dynasts would definitely submit to them.
However, there were also restrictions in the Hidden Dynasts. They could not open their palaces and gather power. Because of it, a relative balance was formed. At that moment, the nine Dynasts had treated Su Ming as a great threat because he had the right to be a Dynast, but he also had the power of the Hidden Dynasts. This sort of existence was an incredibly great threat to them.
That was why they believed that as long as they removed Su Ming's right to be a Dynast, then it would be useless even if he had great power. As a Dynast, he did not need power to begin with. What he needed was a large group of powerful warriors by his side. He needed more people to surround him and form a force of power!
As long as this force of power rose to power, then no matter how strong a powerful warrior was, they would have to submit to it. This was something the nine of them firmly believed in.
Under their expectant gazes, the ten million cultivators in the area gathered their divine senses on Su Ming, the old Bei Bang also had great interest rise in him, the tanned old man was slightly uncertain in his heart, but most of it was because he believed in his own judgment. At that moment, the expression of the person who had returned from the Barren Lands of Divine Essence immediately changed. He felt as if he was riding a tiger and could not get off. Instinctively, he did not look at the tanned old man, neither did he look at Bei Bang, who seemed to have the highest level of cultivation in the area. Instead … he looked at Su Ming.
When he looked at Su Ming, his gaze was filled with respect and great anxiety. Su Ming's expressionless face made the man's heart tremble. He gritted his teeth. He had a strong feeling that he would rather offend the tanned Sect Master than offend Su Ming.
Perhaps the ten million people in the area did not see this gaze, but the nine Dynasts on Su Ming's lotus platform saw it clearly. Bei Bang saw it as well, and the one who saw it the most clearly was the tanned old man. At the instant he saw the respect and anxiety in that person's eyes, his heart let out a loud thump, and the feeling that something bad was about to happen became incredibly strong.
"Wait …" This Bang, "he said without any hesitation.
However, almost as soon as he spoke, the person who had returned from the Source of God revealed a determined look. He had already thought it through. Since the black-faced Sect Elder wanted him to say it, then he might as well say it.
"A few days ago, I was sent to the Barren Lands of Divine Essence by a Sect Master …" He completely ignored the tanned old man's words. When he spoke, he instantly attracted all the cultivators' attention.
"I was sent to the Barren Lands of Divine Essence to investigate all of Dynast Dao Kong's past experiences so that I can find the source of your sudden increase in power. This is the mission I was given. I have no right to refuse, I can only obey your orders. I hope that you will not punish me, Your Highness." As he spoke, he wrapped his fist in his palm and bowed deeply towards Su Ming. His expression was filled with respect, and there was even fear.
This scene instantly stirred up an uproar in the hearts of the people in the area. They immediately began to listen even more attentively. Great curiosity had already been stirred up in their hearts.
"Once I went to the Barren Lands of Divine Essence, I did not head to the forces of power stationed in True Morning Dao World to investigate. Instead, I went to some of my good friends from the other True Worlds I got to know when I was a True Guard in the past. In fact, I even coincidentally ran into some of my fellow Daoists from Black Ink Planet who were good friends with me in the past.
"Once I investigated many places, I might not have been able to find out all of Dynast Dao Kong's experiences in the Barren Lands of Divine Essence, but I managed to find out about thirty to forty percent of it.
"When Dynast Dao Kong first entered the Barren Lands of Divine Essence, he kept a low profile and did not shine too brilliantly. His legend came from a grand auction held in Black Ink Planet.
"During that auction, Dynast Dao Kong bought a Sacred Constellation Robe, and after that, his affairs became a grand feast that still shocks me to this day!
"His Highness went to Divine Essence Star Ocean and went through many dangerous trials. All of you might not have a great understanding of Divine Essence Star Ocean, but I can tell all of you that Divine Essence Star Ocean is a place filled with serendipity. There are ancient Ancestral Spirits sleeping there, and there are even living Ancestral Spirits, Antecedental Spirits, and many ancient and primitive tribes there.
"Everything is possible in Divine Essence Star Ocean, a place filled with legends. Forget about His Highness's level of cultivation increasing by leaps and bounds, it is not impossible for him to reach the heavens in one step.
"Only in that sort of environment can a person truly grow and turn a normal piece of metal into a sharp sword!
"I don't know what His Highness went through in Divine Essence Star Ocean. Only His Highness himself knows all of this, but I am certain that it is definitely not a place an ordinary person can walk through. Even a sect master might die there!
"I also know that Dynast Dao Kong participated … in the activation of the fifth kiln. The fifth kiln is one of the most mysterious places in Divine Essence Star Ocean. Every single time it is activated, a sea of fire will stir up, and that sea of fire will sweep through the entire Divine Essence Star Ocean! "Perhaps there are quite a number of you who don't know just how powerful the fifth kiln is, but I can tell all of you that the fire from the fifth kiln can instantly burn all cultivators below Mastery Realm!
"In fact, even those in Mastery Realm will find it difficult to last for long in that sea of fire if they don't have enough Enchanted Treasures that can repel fire!" There was respect in the old man's words. At the instant they reverberated in all directions, his words stirred up a huge commotion in the area.
The ten million cultivators burst into an uproar. All of them were shocked by the old man's words, and all of them showed their expressions at that moment. Some of them had heard of Divine Essence Star Ocean before, so they naturally knew just how terrifying it was. They had heard of the fifth kiln and completely understood just how terrifying it was.
In fact, there were some who had been True Guards for generations. The old man's words caused them to fall silent. They came to understand more, but the more they understood, the more their respect towards Su Ming reached an unprecedented level.
There were even more people who heard of this for the first time, but they knew the old man and knew that he would not lie. Besides, there were few fools among the people here, so they could naturally judge whether the old man's words were true or false.
"Dynast Dao Kong participated in the activation of the fifth kiln, and even the weakest among those who participated were in Mastery Realm. Among them, amid the numerous dangers in the fifth kiln, Dynast Dao Kong obtained a great serendipity that had never been seen before. His follower was also subdued there …"
While his words were still echoing in the air, the uproar in the area instantly grew stronger. The cries of disbelief were filled with shock that no matter what, no matter what, they would find inconceivable.
Bei Bang's pupils shrank. He looked towards Su Ming, and what he saw was Su Ming's indifferent expression.
The tanned old man's face was already devoid of expression. He stood there and glared at the old man who had returned from the Barren Lands of Divine Essence. Powerful killing intent rose in his heart.
The expressions of the nine Dynasts on Su Ming's lotus platform changed at that moment, and they took a few steps back simultaneously.
"That's nothing. Right now, there is a rumor that has spread like wildfire in the Barren Lands of Divine Essence. He does not belong to any True World, but is a guest of the forces of power from the four Great True Worlds in Divine Essence Star Ocean … Sir Tian Wu. This person is an Almighty in Mastery Realm, and he also participated in the activation of the fifth kiln, but it is rumored that he did not return because he snatched a treasure from Dynast Dao Kong and was personally killed by Dynast Dao Kong. His physical body then became the body of his follower, Flame Fiends' Progenitor!"
Bei Bang's eyes sparkled. He did not speak, but the tanned old man behind him let out a cold harrumph. His voice was like thunder, and it instantly suppressed the waves of sound in the area.
"Nonsense. I've heard of Sir Tian Wu before. His blood is strange, and when he transforms, he will become incredibly powerful. How could he have been killed so easily? Who did you hear this from? It's just a rumor, so how can you treat it as truth?!
"If you bring up this rumor again, then don't blame me for punishing you!" the tanned old man said darkly. There was a grim, murderous tone in his voice.
"What if Progenitor Long Hai personally told me these words?!" the old man who had returned from the Barren Lands of Divine Essence immediately said without any hesitation. He had already decided to throw caution to the wind.
Once he said these words, the uproar that had been suppressed in the area instantly became so loud that it was boundless. The tanned old man's expression changed, but he did not say a single word.
"Progenitor Long Hai, the Almighty from Morning Dao Sect who has been missing for many years!"
"I've heard of this Progenitor before. It's said that he has long since become an Almighty and is famous in True Morning Dao World. I didn't expect that he would be in the Barren Lands of Divine Essence."
"Progenitor Long Hai … if he personally said it, then his words will be believable!"
As the waves of sound rumbled in the area, the old man who had returned from the Barren Lands of Divine Essence spoke again and said the most shocking thing he had heard up to that point.
"After Dynast Dao Kong left the fifth kiln, he went to the fifth ocean. Over there … His Highness was surrounded and attacked by numerous tribes and ferocious beasts from Divine Essence Star Ocean." The old man shuddered. As he did so, fear appeared in his eyes.
"One of His Highness's followers only executed one divine ability over there, and he killed tens of thousands of cultivators. Among them were Almighties in Mastery Realm …
"It's said that His Highness's follower … is an Almighty in Life Realm who is about to step into Death Realm!"
When the old man's words echoed in the air, the area instantly fell into dead silence, but soon, booming sounds erupted violently. They were countless cries of surprise fused together to form a wave of sound that surged into the sky. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me.
