Zhou Wen quietly watched the humanoid monster's demonstration. Although the humanoid monster's Ancient Sovereign Sutra wasn't the same as his, the other party's realm and level were much higher than his. He could still obtain some experience.
However, after watching for a while, Zhou Wen felt that something was amiss. Although the humanoid monster's Ancient Sovereign Sutra was indeed very powerful and high-level, it was too different from Zhou Wen's Ancient Sovereign Sutra. There wasn't much point in using it as a reference.
"That …" Zhou Wen wanted to ask the question on his mind.
"Don't speak. Engrave every word I say into your soul. This is the result of generations of human sages sacrificing themselves. You have to pass it down. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it. Just remember it …" The humanoid monster's expression was solemn as it continued demonstrating the Ancient Sovereign Sutra.
Zhou Wen had no choice but to continue listening as he thought to himself, Even if it's useless to me, I can find a human to inherit this Essence Energy Art in the future.
Towards the end of the Ancient Sovereign Sutra's demonstration, the humanoid creature's aura was so strong that it nearly tore through the sky.
Thankfully, this was a dimensional zone. If it were outside, it would probably cause a tremor that spanned thousands of kilometers.
However, Zhou Wen vaguely felt that with the Ancient Sovereign Sutra's demonstration, the humanoid creature's aura gradually began to turn amiss. If it was pure Ancient Sovereign aura in the beginning, it was almost impossible to tell if he was a human or a dimensional creature. Later on, the dimensional creature aura on his body became more and more obvious.
Finally, after the Ancient Sovereign Sutra demonstration was over, the humanoid creature stopped. However, the aura on his body continued surging like a raging wave.
"Have you memorized it? There's not much time left. If there's anything you can't remember, quickly ask. "The humanoid creature seemed to be enduring some kind of pain as his voice trembled.
"I've memorized it, but I have an important question to ask." As Zhou Wen spoke, he switched his Essence Energy Art to the Ancient Sovereign Sutra to prevent the humanoid creature from interrupting him again.
The sun-like Ancient Sovereign appeared in front of Zhou Wen and asked, "I've also cultivated the Ancient Sovereign Sutra on the stone monument, but the path I took later on was somewhat different from what you just demonstrated. It was even the complete opposite. Can you tell me why?"
When the humanoid monster heard the first half of the sentence, it wanted to interrupt him and tell him everything that needed to be said as soon as possible.
However, when he saw the Human Emperor projection that Zhou Wen had summoned, his eyes widened as he lost control of his emotions and cried out, "How is this possible? You raised the Ancient Sovereign Sutra to the Terror grade? But I can't sense any dimensional energy from you. This is impossible! "
This was because Zhou Wen's Ancient Sovereign Sutra was actually a simulation in the beginning. As long as he didn't switch to the Ancient Sovereign Sutra, he wouldn't have the aura of the Ancient Sovereign Sutra. Although the humanoid monster had cultivated the Ancient Sovereign Sutra to an extremely high realm, it was unable to sense it.
When he suddenly saw Zhou Wen summon Human Emperor's shadow, he couldn't believe it.
"Yes, it hasn't been long since my Ancient Sovereign Sutra advanced to the Terror grade, but my Ancient Sovereign Sutra has a problem. Any injury inflicted by the Ancient Sovereign Sutra's power will rapidly heal. Even an ant can't be killed. Is there any way to resolve this problem?" Zhou Wen had always been depressed about this characteristic of the Ancient Sovereign Sutra. The Ancient Sovereign Sutra augmented his strength greatly, but it was useless if he couldn't kill.
The humanoid monster looked at Zhou Wen with a complicated gaze. He was clearly a monster, but now, he looked like he was looking at a monster.
"Are humans nowadays all like you? How many people have mastered the Ancient Sovereign Sutra? How many have relied on the Ancient Sovereign Sutra to break through the limits of the Heavenly Man? "the humanoid monster asked with a complicated expression.
"I've never heard of it. Perhaps there might be, but I don't know." Zhou Wen wasn't sure if there were others who had cultivated the Ancient Sovereign Sutra.
After all, the stone monument was placed there. Anyone could come and take a look. Who knew, someone might have mastered it.
"In other words, your Ancient Sovereign Sutra was completely self-comprehended. No one guided you?" the humanoid monster asked again.
"No." Zhou Wen thought for a moment and said, "Is there a problem? Could it be that my Ancient Sovereign Sutra can't injure others because I cultivated it wrongly? "
The humanoid monster said with a strange expression, "The ancient human emperors were emperors among humans. Every generation of emperors was an emperor who was respected by the masses. They were willing to sacrifice everything for humanity. Every generation of emperors had the determination to sacrifice themselves to achieve righteousness. What they wanted was never to kill, but to let humanity live on. "
With that said, the humanoid monster sighed. "However, this path can't be taken. Even human emperors like Suirenshi and Shinno, who bet everything for humanity, were unable to break through the limits of the Heavenly Man. In the end, they had no choice but to sacrifice themselves to become demons and seek other paths. Only then did I cultivate the Ancient Sovereign Sutra."
The humanoid monster looked deeply at Zhou Wen and Human Emperor before sighing. "If I had known that someone could master the Ancient Sovereign Sutra with a pure human body, there would have been no need to take so many detours."
That's not right, right? Since I'm the emperor of humanity, I have to lead humanity to fight against external enemies. If I can't kill the enemy, wouldn't half of the Ancient Sovereign Sutra be useless? Zhou Wen still felt that there were some problems with the Ancient Sovereign Sutra he cultivated.
Emperors are different from Thearchs. Thearchs kill, but Emperors subdue the enemy without fighting. Killing is just an expedient measure, the worst possible strategy. If I can really tame my opponent and use him for myself, wouldn't that be twice the result with half the effort? Rearing livestock and planting food are all ways to turn enemies into friends. It's many times better than that person who only knows how to kill. How can they be compared?
"Wrong … It's all wrong … I can't believe that generations of blood, sweat, and tears, and even sacrificing themselves to become demons, went down the wrong path …" The humanoid monster's voice gradually became strange, as if it had lost all emotion, becoming cold and emotionless.
"Go … Live on with your Ancient Sovereign Sutra … I'm about to lose control of this body … Remember the three things I said … If you can't do it … Then don't ever return to Ancient Sovereign City … Find a suitable person to pass down the Ancient Sovereign Sutra … Until someone can do it … Then let him return to Ancient Sovereign City …" The humanoid monster's eyes turned fiercer as though it had changed into a different person.
Although Zhou Wen still had many questions to ask, he was about to lose control. The isolation ability of the Heaven Shrouding Bell could no longer help the humanoid monster resist the control of some power.
"Farewell!" Zhou Wen didn't dare hesitate. He wasn't the humanoid monster's match, so all he could do was flee.
At the instant Zhou Wen retracted Demonic Neonate and the Soul Reflection Mirror, the humanoid monster had completely lost control. Its body vanished violently. Thankfully, Zhou Wen had already used the Spatial Theft Kill to teleport. As he retracted his Companion Beasts, he had already rushed out of Guide City.
The area outside and inside the city were almost two different worlds. Large numbers of skeleton creatures constantly crawled out of the moat outside the city. There was no lack of Mythical existences among them.
"Come out!" Zhou Wen suddenly shouted after clearing the nearby skeleton creatures with the Minor Heavenly Cycle Annihilation Array and arriving at an empty spot in the city.
