"You don't have to call me senior, I'm your senior!"
The green-robed man smiled warmly and said to Du Shaofu.
Du Shaofu was even more shocked when he heard this. His mind was filled with confusion.
He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
"Senior …"
Du Shaofu was confused, but it wasn't hard to figure out where this title came from!
Ever since he started cultivating, there were only a few masters he had worshipped, and they were none other than Gu Qingyang of Shen Wu World's Ancient Heaven Sect, Xiahou Fenglei and Duanmu Qiongtian of Seven Stars Hall, and finally, Yu Qing Divine Country's Imperial Ancestor, Yu Yuqian!
Du Shaofu already knew that Yu Yuqian came from the same sect as the master of the Three Thousand Boundless Worlds in front of him. The other party also said that he was his senior, so other than Yu Yuqian, who else could his master be?
After knowing this, Du Shaofu was speechless.
It was no wonder that when he had just become Yu Yuqian's disciple, that old man had always nagged him about wanting him to learn from his Senior Martial Brother, to strive to become a great figure, to stand at the top, and to make the old man proud!
At that time, Du Shaofu was very puzzled. Just who was that Senior Brother of his? Could it be that he was a powerful Meditative Realm expert?
However, he didn't think too much about it. After all, Yu Yuqian and the others hid it well. They only told him that they had a terrifying senior, so he didn't think too much about it.
Today, Du Shaofu was really shocked!
The master of the Three Thousand Boundless Worlds, that was a terrifying master who controlled the entire Three Thousand Boundless Worlds!
Du Shaofu learned from Qu Dao Jue and the others that the Three Thousand Boundless Worlds were very powerful. Lu Shaofu's strength was unquestionable!
"Don't be surprised, there are many things you should know now! But now is not the time to talk, I'll tell you slowly in the future! "
The green-robed man, Lu Shaoyou, smiled as he spoke to Du Shaofu. At the same time, he waved his hand, sending out a wave of light, which transformed into a gentle rain of light that fell upon Du Shaofu's body.
This rain of light contained an incomparably dense mystic energy and had an extremely strong healing effect.
In an instant, Du Shaofu felt as if he was bathing in the warm sunlight. His whole body was indescribably comfortable, and the injuries on his body were rapidly recovering. The recovery speed was a thousand times faster than the recovery speed of the Immortal Xuan Body!
He was shocked for no reason. The Master of the Three Thousand Great Worlds, what kind of realm was his Senior Brother in?
This was too terrifying. With just a casual movement of his hand, half of his injuries were instantly healed!
However, Lu Shaoyou didn't look at Du Shaofu. Instead, he turned to look in Jiangchen's direction.
"You wanted to see me, so here I am!"
Lu Shaoyou spoke softly. His gaze was calm and peaceful.
He simply stood there, but he gave off an ethereal and mysterious feeling. It was as if his real body was there, but also as if he was merely a projection of an illusory figure. It was like a dream, unfathomable!
Even so, his imposing manner was incomparably valiant. Even in the face of Jiangchen, who'd recovered his meditative state, Lu Shaoyou's aura was still far, far more imposing than before!
"Master of the Three Thousand Great Worlds, Lu Shaoyou!"
Jiangchen had also recovered his previous calm. His handsome face was expressionless as he said, "I didn't expect that after the ancient war, another world would be created! Apart from the one who created it, there's also a rising star like you. How astonishing! "
He gazed at Lu Shaoyou. Although his expression was calm, there were ripples in his eyes. Obviously, he was amazed by Lu Shaoyou.
"Did you have me appear here just to say this?"
Lu Shaoyou's lips were still curved in a smile. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiangchen.
"I knew long ago that I couldn't kill Du Shaofu. You definitely wouldn't allow me to touch him! Attacking him was just to force you to show yourself! "
Jiangchen took a step forward and continued, "I want to see exactly what kind of enemy I'll be facing in the future. If I have the chance, I'd like to take a trip to the Three Thousand Great Worlds!"
When he finished speaking, Jiangchen's gaze hardened and contained traces of murderous intent.
These words were tantamount to a declaration of war against Lu Shaoyou!
If the demons wanted to go to the Three Thousand Great Worlds, they naturally wouldn't be guests. They'd definitely lead a large number of experts there and start a bloody massacre!
"Heh heh ….."
Lu Shaoyou suddenly laughed coldly. "I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. I don't think you'll have the chance to go to the Three Thousand Great Worlds!"
"Is that so?"
Jiangchen's pupils constricted as he countered.
His entire body surged with the power of the Great Dao, transforming into a complete set of universal laws. They shook violently, shaking the heavens above and the earth below!
Lu Shaoyou simply stood there, unmoving. In the face of the terrifying power, his body was like a ten-thousand-year-old pine tree. He stood tall and proud, allowing the storm to batter him without the slightest tremor!
"What a powerful cultivation!"
Du Shaofu was speechless. As he watched the two silently collide, his heart was filled with indescribable shock!
As a cultivator of the Illusory Dao, of course he could tell how terrifying Jiangchen's aura was. If he stood there, he'd probably be instantly obliterated by the power of the Great Dao and die a violent death!
However, Lu Shaoyou didn't even make a move. The boundless waves brushed past him like a gentle breeze. They didn't affect him in the slightest. Even Du Shaofu, who stood behind him, didn't feel the slightest bit of impact.
His bearing alone was enough to surpass Jiangchen's current strength!
"You and I will fight one day, but not now!"
At this moment, Lu Shaoyou spoke again.
As soon as he spoke, Jiangchen naturally retracted his aura.
Then, he heard the ruler of the 3,000 Sectors continue, "You need time to recover to your peak strength, and I need to plan how to fight against you. Now is not the time to truly fight! But if you really want to fight, I don't mind suppressing you for an eternity! "
Lu Shaoyou's words were very calm. Even when he said the last sentence, there wasn't the slightest ripple of emotion. It was as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
However, when Du Shaofu heard this, it had a different meaning.
He could tell that the ruler of the 3,000 Sectors was extremely powerful. At the very least, he was far stronger than Jiangchen. Otherwise, how could he suppress him?
Jiangchen didn't immediately respond to Lu Shaoyou. Instead, he looked deeply at Du Shaofu, then said to Lu Shaoyou, "You're just gambling. If you lose, then whether it's the 33 Heavens or the 3,000 Sectors, they'll all become the demon race's territory!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly turned and waved his hand at Dongli Chihuang, Chen Yan, and a dozen or so high-level immortal experts. "Let's go!"
Under Jiangchen's lead, a blood-red light soared into the sky, then quickly disappeared without a trace.
Only Lu Shaoyou and Du Shaofu remained, along with the Bloodthirsty Saber, which floated in the air and emanated a murderous aura!
"Se … Senior Brother Lu!"
When he saw Jiangchen leave, Du Shaofu walked up to Lu Shaoyou and bowed respectfully.
Regardless of whether or not Jiangchen's seniority was the same as his, Lu Shaoyou still respected him from the depths of his heart.
If it weren't for the green-robed man in front of him, Du Shaofu wouldn't have been able to achieve what he did today!
"Little guy, you've done well. You've grown very quickly these past few years!"
Lu Shaoyou looked back at Du Shaofu and smiled. "Let's leave this place first. There are some things I should tell you!"
He reached out and tapped lightly in the air. A speck of starlight slowly appeared. It was incomparably bright and spun continuously.
The speck of starlight grew larger and larger until it finally formed a vortex that sucked him and Du Shaofu in at the same time.
"This is … the starry sky from before!"
A moment later, Du Shaofu appeared in another place. It was the boundless starry sky they'd entered through the black hole. Everywhere was deathly still, like a vast graveyard, completely devoid of life!
"Do you know where that place was?"
Lu Shaoyou asked as he hovered in the air, leading Du Shaofu forward.
"I don't know!"
Du Shaofu shook his head and said bluntly.
Lu Shaoyou was referring to the space where Jiangchen was.
When Du Shaofu arrived in this Star Region, he, Su Mo Yan, Chi Yuanlin, and the others had speculated that this place might have something to do with the Eighteen Layers of Hell, but they couldn't be sure.
Now that Lu Shaoyou mentioned it, he would definitely tell him the truth.
"Perhaps you've also speculated about it?"
Lu Shaoyou smiled as he looked at Du Shaofu. "That's where the first layer of the Eighteen Layers of Hell is located. The Demon God escaped from there!"
"The Demon God escaped from there …"
Du Shaofu finally understood. So that was the first layer of the Eighteen Layers of Hell. No wonder he'd felt a murderous aura when he'd first entered.
Moreover, there weren't many powerful existences in that space. Most likely, many experts had been taken away by the Demon God, such as the Five Elements Demon Emperor, the Nine Great Demon Emperors, and so on. Later, during the Archean War, the Masters of the Three Thousand Great Worlds, the Dragon God, and the others killed them all.
"The Demon God was formed by a wisp of the Demon Ancestor's Primordial Spirit. He broke through the first layer of the Eighteen Layers of Hell and went to the outside world to wreak havoc! The Celestial Demon Battlefield you went to was at the edge of the first layer of the Eighteen Layers of Hell. The Demon God tore open the space there and led to the supreme Chang Rong Heaven! "
Lu Shaoyou continued to speak to Du Shaofu.
"Senior Brother, if the Demon God was formed by a wisp of the Demon Ancestor's Primordial Spirit, doesn't that mean that the Demon Ancestor has other Primordial Spirits?"
Du Shaofu didn't know much about the ancient past. Now that the Masters of the Three Thousand Great Worlds were by his side, he took advantage of this opportunity to ask, "Senior Brother, can you tell me more about it?"
"Don't be impatient. Listen to me slowly!"
Lu Shaoyou said with a smile. Then, he tirelessly explained the ancient past.
"Before the heavens and earth were created, there was chaos. Three thousand Celestial Demons were born from the chaos. They fought each other and died! Perhaps you've heard of this before! "
As Lu Shaoyou spoke, he glanced at Du Shaofu. When he saw him nod, he continued, "In the end, there were only a few Celestial Demons who broke through the chaos. Pangu, who created the Thirty-Three Heavens, and the Demon Ancestor were among them!
"Because of past grievances, the Demon Ancestor and Pangu were irreconcilable enemies. The Demon Ancestor wanted to subvert the Thirty-Three Heavens through slaughter! It was under these circumstances that the curtains to the great war that occurred after the heavens and earth were created! I won't go into the details of this process. In fact, I've never experienced it. At that time, the Three Thousand Great Worlds didn't exist, and I didn't exist either! However, we can all imagine how tragic it was back then!
"Later, almost all of the powerhouses of the Thirty-Three Heavens perished. Even the strongest, Pangu, had to pay such a heavy price to suppress the Demon Ancestor. His Primordial Spirit was divided and sealed in the Eighteen Layers of Hell. His physical body was sealed in the Divine Martial World by Empyrean Daluo's lifetime of power! This is Jiangchen's origin. He's the Demon Ancestor's physical body that gave birth to a new spirit and intelligence! "
Lu Shaoyou paused for a moment, allowing Du Shaofu to comprehend a few things on his own.
"The Demon Ancestor's Primordial Spirit was divided into eighteen parts and sealed in the Eighteen Layers of Hell. His physical body was sealed in the Divine Martial World by Empyrean Daluo …. Pangu and Empyrean Daluo, these two peak existences, have both perished?"
Du Shaofu was indescribably shocked. Lu Shaoyou was clearly telling him that Pangu and Empyrean Daluo had long since ceased to exist. Now, however, the Demon Ancestor had returned once more.
Now that Jiangchen had arrived in the Eighteen Layers of Hell, he'd definitely find a way to break through each layer and gather the power of his Primordial Spirit!
Once he succeeded, he'd reach the peak of the Demon Ancestor's strength. Without Pangu and Empyrean Daluo, who else in the world would be able to subdue the demons?
Once the demons launched a bloodbath, the Thirty-Three Heavens would no longer have a pure land. No one would be able to remain uninvolved!
"Although the situation is grave, there's no need to worry too early! The Eighteen Layers of Hell aren't that easy to break through. The Demon Ancestor doesn't have the strength to quickly break through Pangu's arrangements. He needs time! "
When he saw Du Shaofu's worried expression, Lu Shaoyou patted him on the shoulder. "Given my strength, I could've continued to suppress him for eons, but that would've been pointless! If we can't kill the Demon Ancestor for good, the Thirty-Three Heavens will eventually face his bloodbath! That's why we need time to arrange a few things so that we can face the final battle and put an end to everything! "
"Is the Demon Ancestor immortal?"
Du Shaofu looked up and asked. Lu Shaoyou nodded.
He understood. Back in the Divine Martial World, the Demon God possessed an immortal body. Even when he'd gone all out, he hadn't been able to kill him. Only Jiangchen, who'd turned the Demon Ancestor's physical body into his own, had been able to do so.
One could imagine that the Demon Ancestor himself was an existence that couldn't be killed. In ancient times, Pangu, Lord Daluo, and the others could only separate his physical body and primordial spirit. Then, they divided his primordial spirit into 18 parts and suppressed them separately!
However, Du Shaofu noticed something important. Lu Shaoyou wanted to put an end to everything and kill the Demon Ancestor. That made him more alert.
As if he knew what he was thinking, Lu Shaoyou smiled and said, "Hurry up and increase your strength. Killing the Demon Ancestor is very difficult. You'll need to contribute greatly. If you can't grow quickly, all the arrangements we've made will be for naught!"
"Me?"
Du Shaofu was stunned. He didn't understand.
His strength had indeed increased quickly, but if he wanted to kill the Demon Ancestor, would Du Shaofu be able to play a decisive role?
This made him feel somewhat incredulous. He couldn't understand it at all.
However, the Lord of the Three Thousand Upper Worlds didn't say much about it. Instead, he changed the topic.
He pointed at the vast space of the Star Zone and said, "This Star Zone wasn't originally a dead land. It was a world that could give birth to life!"
"This isn't a dead land?"
Du Shaofu's mouth was wide open. He was shocked once again.
Such a vast area was actually once a world. But why had it become completely withered and desolate? It had become a land of death, like a graveyard?
"If you feel it carefully, it shouldn't be difficult to find that every star has a specific trajectory in its rotation! These trajectories gather a vast amount of energy and head towards an unknown place! "
Lu Shaoyou glanced around and said to Du Shaofu.
Du Shaofu nodded. He had already noticed this when he first arrived.
Countless stars drew innumerable trajectories, as if they were drawing some kind of mysterious traces of Dharma and Logos. However, these traces were very deep and obscure, unfathomable. With his current cultivation, it was impossible for him to see through them!
"The 18 levels of hell rely on these powers to suppress, and the power in this Star Zone has been consumed over the years. It's almost gone! It won't be easy for the Demon Ancestor to break through here. However, if we don't plan well, the day he breaks through all 18 levels of hell will be the beginning of a new round of calamity! We're competing with the Demon Ancestor. Whoever can reach their goal first will have the absolute upper hand! "
Young Master Lu tried to persuade her, but he couldn't help but have a serious expression on his face.
The sealing power of the 18 levels of hell was being greatly consumed. It was about to reach its end. That was why the Demon Ancestor had the confidence to break through each level.
Therefore, both sides needed time to complete their plans.
"Is the key still me?"
Du Shaofu mumbled with a heavy heart.
"Like I said, you don't need to worry too early. There are many things you don't need to worry about yet. There are experts who will make the necessary arrangements! What you need to do is work hard to improve yourself! "
Lu Shaoyou reined in his emotions and said.
"I understand!"
Du Shaofu nodded solemnly.
He believed that if Jiangchen broke through the 18 levels of hell and merged all of his primordial spirits, his strength would surpass the Meditative Realm!
He didn't know which of the nine great realms he'd reach — Dao Carrier or Avatar!
As a Void Dao Realm cultivator, Lu Shaoyou was far too weak. If he worried too much, he'd be possessed.
"Don't think too much. I'll take you somewhere!"
Lu Shaoyou interrupted Du Shaofu's train of thought.
"Where are we going?" Du Shaofu was puzzled.
"A world called Earth!"
