The Anatta Grand Exalt and Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths had completely vanished from the Tower of Radiance. They had crossed a huge distance in a single instance and returned to the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng on the Prosper Plane.
At this moment, the Anatta Grand Exalt sat in the depths of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng. An invisible presence permeated his surroundings as he shone brightly. The sound of the ways lingered around him as if he was suppressing the laws of the world.
On the other side, the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths remained calm. However, he stared at the Anatta Grand Exalt with his aged eyes. His gaze was filled with mixed feelings.
A while later, the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths let out a long sigh and said, "Anatta, we've known each other for over a hundred million years, so Old Man understands how you do things extremely well. However, you actually made Old Man feel like he doesn't know you after everything you've done in the Tower of Radiance this time."
"Although you didn't show any emotions at all, as an old friend of many years, you were unable to hide your abnormal behaviour from Old Man. The reason why you killed the true Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance so decisively was not because the Artifact Spirit had offended you. The true reason was because you wanted the external Artifact Spirit to control the Tower of Radiance. "
"As a result, you know the identity and origins of the external Artifact Spirit in the Tower of Radiance."
The Anatta Grand Exalt remained seated in the air. Resplendent light enveloped him, making him seem like an old monk in meditation. He did not react at all.
The Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths continued, "In the past few years, Old Man's soul had split. One of his souls had turned into Chanlong. Although his soul has been reunited now, Old Man remembers everything that Chanlong has experienced in this life clearly. As a result, even if you don't say anything, even if all traces have been erased, Old Man will still be able to divine the answer to certain matters."
"The external Artifact Spirit in the Tower of Radiance actually belonged to Jianchen, right?" The Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths stared at the Anatta Grand Exalt with shining eyes.
The Anatta Grand Exalt did not respond at all.
The Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths let out a long sigh again. His emotions seemed to become rather complicated. He said, "Ever since the Old Man's soul was reunited, many of the mysteries he encountered have been resolved. There are very few things in the world that can be hidden from the Old Man."
"Back then, there was a woman called Caia who followed by Jianchen's side. She was actually your reincarnation. When you recovered your memories, you did not take your reincarnation with you. Instead, you fled with your soul, purposely leaving your reincarnation with Jianchen …"
"That reincarnated body was actually a strand of the power of your soul. You sealed all the memories of this strand of soul, only keeping the memories of this life of the reincarnated body, so that the reincarnated body does not know who its true identity is. But in reality, everything that the reincarnated body has experienced can be seen as your own experience … "
"Sigh, Anatta, you've already been affected by your reincarnation. What you've done this time is rather rash."
"He's my fruit of ways!" This time, the Anatta Grand Exalt finally spoke. His voice was just as cold and emotionless as before.
"The Old Man knows that he's your fruit of ways. You've used the fruit of ways to enter the Way of Emotions before comprehending the Way of Emotionlessness. However, there are many people targeting the fruit of ways. It'll be fine if you're in the Saints' World, but once you go to the chaotic space, the fruit of ways can be destroyed at any time. "
"Once the fruit of ways is destroyed at a time like this … you're taking far too great a risk," said the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths.
"No one can destroy my fruit of ways! He doesn't dare to do that. As for the Myriad Bone Guild, they're just two clowns. They don't have the ability to do that, "the Anatta Grand Exalt's voice became even colder.
"Even if everything is under your control and you've stopped anyone from destroying the fruit of ways, you've already entered the Way of Emotions. You've already been affected. When you need the fruit of ways to comprehend the Way of Emotionlessness, can you do it? "The Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths asked.
"I can!"
.....
In the Tower of Radiance on the Desolate Plane, the artifact spirit who had remained bowed the entire time before the two sovereigns finally stood up slowly. He closed his eyes and sensed carefully. All the regions of the Tower of Radiance immediately appeared under his control.
"My control over the Tower of Radiance has completely exceeded the past. Moreover, I've even absorbed all the imprints and memories left behind by the previous Artifact Spirit. This time, it's impossible for the previous Artifact Spirit to awaken. "
"That's because I've completely replaced him. I've become the unique Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance," the white-robed, middle-aged man could not help but smile.
"I can feel that the saint before saved me all because of master. This is because the Origin of Ways that the saint gave me is the same as the Origin of Ways that master gave me in the past."
"Master, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye. I wonder where you are now. I can already help you …" The Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance said softly. At the same time, he rapidly absorbed the old Artifact Spirit's memories. Very soon, he learnt about everything that had happened when the old Artifact Spirit was in charge of the Tower of Radiance. His face gradually became ugly.
In the next moment, he established a connection with Godslayer's sword through the special ability of the Tower of Radiance. He sent an order through the sword, "Gongsun Zhi, come quickly!"
At this moment, in the Radiant Saint Hall, the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall, Gongsun Zhi, sat on the leader's throne in high spirits with his legs crossed. The Godslayer's Sword hovered beside him, giving off a chilling pressure and pulses of energy.
Below, Donglin, Yan Xue, Han Xin, Bai Yu, and Xuan Zhan stood there silently.
In addition to the five Guardians, all of the Vice Temple Masters and the Temple Elders were also present.
At this moment, all the upper echelon of the Radiant Saint Hall had gathered.
Aside from the upper echelon of the Radiant Saint Hall, there were two outsiders who did not belong to the Radiant Saint Hall. Everyone present knew who they were.
Even many of the elders and vice-hall masters of the upper echelon looked at the two outsiders with undisguised respect and fear.
To no surprise, the two of them were the ancestor of the Xu family, Xu Zhiping, and Huangfu Guiyi of the Zhongtian clan. They were terrifying figures who could shake up the entire Desolate Plane with just a stomp of their feet.
"Your Xu family and the Zhongtian clan actually used so many years to find the exact location of the Martial Soul Mountain. Aren't you far too useless? How can you claim to be a peak organisation on the Desolate Plane like that?" Gongsun Zhi looked at Xu Zhiping and Huangfu Guiyi in disappointment.
Ever since he could mobilise the five other protectors, his status in the Radiant Saint Hall had truly skyrocketed. His control over authority had reached an unprecedented level.
