un's avatar's role was simply Dao Zun himselfAnd, as it happens, he was right!Even the incarnations of this venerable one didn't expect to be acting as the main body!At this very moment, the Daoist Ve...Ginger Cloud's figure suddenly stopped, her eyes blinking not at all as she stared straight at Man Shang's face, wanting to see if she could judge whether Man Shang was telling the truth.
Granted, the Demon Clan and alchemists are indeed mortal enemies, but Man Shuang shouldn't really have such a "mortal enemy" evaluation for that alchemist, even if their eldest brother is Huang Yuan.
Man Shang naturally stopped as well, a look of confusion deepening on his face. He obviously didn't understand why Jiang Yun had suddenly come to a halt.
But he didn't want to ask, so he could only stare at Jiang Yun patiently waiting.
After a long silence, Gingercloud finally spoke again, "Have you ever come into contact with a demon cultivator"
"No!" Man Shuang shook her head, saying firmly, "I've been cultivating since I was young, and I've never met a demon refiner!"
Ginger continued to press, "What about your other brothers Like Black Devil, have they ever encountered a Demon Refiner"
Before we met, I don't know if they had ever encountered a demonic cultivator. But after we met, they haven't encountered a demonic cultivator either!
When did you meet
This time, it was Man Shang's turn to fall silent for a moment before speaking softly, "We met in a great battle!"
"Which battle"
Man Shang couldn't help but look at Jiang Yun again with surprise, very puzzled as to why Jiang Yun was so curious about matters between his own brothers.
Although he still answered as instructed: “That battle involved many people, but few know about it now. Since you are acquainted with Big Brother, you should know.”
Jiang Yun's voice was low and solemn: "That battle was the ultimate showdown between the Palace of Slaying Gods and the Nine Annihilating Clans!"
"Not bad!" Man Shang nodded. "In that great war, several of us brothers accepted the invitation from the Wilderness Clan to go and help them, but unfortunately, the Wilderness Clan was not a match for the God-Slaying Temple in the end."
"Almost the entire tribe was wiped out. My brothers and I barely managed to escape."
From then on, we became the targets of both the God Slayers' Temple and the Dao Zun. We never separated again, but were still captured by Dao Zun's men and imprisoned in the Dao Prison.
Then, the big brother appeared and saved us!
At this point, Man Shuang stopped talking and looked at Jiang Yun.
And at this moment, Ginger Cloud's two eyebrows were almost twisted together, her eyes filled with deep confusion.
As Muchang said, and what I experienced in the dream realm, they are completely different!
Although the ultimate outcome of the Illusory Realm was the victory of the Savage Clan and the defeat of the Temple of Slaughter, most events that occurred within it corresponded with real history.
For example, Xue Dongliu and the three major demon clans are said to be accomplices of the Slaying God Palace because their eldest brother is a demonic cultivator who stands on the same side as Dao Zun.
But now, Man Shang said they were hired by the Wild Clan, and they had never even seen a demon cultivator!
"What on earth is going on"
Jiang Yun couldn't help but murmur, "Could it be that when Huangtu set up the illusionary realm, he made a mistake"
But that shouldn't be the case! Perhaps he could forget other things, but someone as powerful as that Spirit Refiner... it's impossible for him to get such a crucial detail wrong. He wouldn't misremember whether the spirit master was on Daozun's side or the Savage Race's side!
Moments later, Jiang Yun came back to his senses.
The answers to these questions, standing here and imagining them out of thin air is forever impossible. Perhaps when we see the vastness of things, everything will have an answer.
How long until we get there
"Man Shang smiled bitterly and said, 'If all the teleportation arrays were available, we could get there within half a day. But now, I don't know which ones are still functional, so it's hard to say.' "
Within the void of the Ancient Realm, teleportation arrays were hidden everywhere. However, most of them had been activated instantly earlier to deal with the Ancestor of the Wind Clan, sending out patterns of wild lines. Therefore, Manshang could not give a specific time.
Jiang Yun naturally also knew, nodded and said: "Then let's go!"
Along the way, Jiang Yun didn't ask Man Shang any more questions. Instead, Man Shang began to proactively introduce Jiang Yun to the situation in this ancient realm.
How Kuangyuan opened up this ancient realm back then, Man Shang didn't know. Anyway, after Kuangyuan rescued him from the eighth level of Dao Prison, the Ancient Realm already existed. There were even quite a few cultivators inside, but there weren't any powerful ones.
From that point onwards, he teamed up with Huang Yuan and began secretly planting the wasteland patterns onto those cultivators. And Huang Yuan would also occasionally leave the Dao Gu Realm, going to other worlds in the Dao Prison to bring back some cultivators and beings.
Gradually, the number of creatures in the Ancient Dao Realm increased, and naturally, there emerged various forces such as sects and clans. However, none of these people knew that the true master behind the Ancient Dao Realm was Huang Yuan, and it was Man Shang and them.
Especially after Hei Lao Gui and the others were rescued, Huang Yuan completely withdrew from the public eye and entrusted them with the full responsibility of handling everything.
This is how the birth of the Jiuyi Sect came to be!
Similarly, in order to avoid being too high-profile, the Jiuyi Sect has remained within the ranks of second-rate forces from its founding until now.
But one after another disciples emerged from it, and within this ancient realm they branched out and established first-rate forces like the Ancient Heavenly Sect.
In short, although the overall strength within the Dao Ancient Realm is growing, at least half of all forces are secretly controlled by the Jiu Yi Zong.
And the other half, such as the Yaoshén Sect, exist freely.
However, this freedom is actually relative.
Because the individual independent spaces they lived in were provided by the Jiushi Zong.
Even if they had doubts and even refused to enter such a space, once most of the forces lived within that kind of space, they would eventually have to accept this way of survival.
Of course, their every move was also under the surveillance of the Jiuyi sect.
By this time, the Dao Ancient Realm had stabilized completely. Therefore, Huang Yuan, who had been in seclusion hundreds of years ago, announced that he would close his door and strive to reach a higher realm.
Before going into seclusion, he left a message saying that unless the Desolate Master appeared, nothing should disturb him.
While his cultivation realm was distant, according to Man Shang, he hadn't reached the true state of Human-Dao Convergence either. They were evenly matched.
Just like that, after walking for three days as described by Man Shang, a rather unremarkable mountain, though a thousand zhang tall, finally appeared before Jiang Yun.
"The Big Brother is meditating inside this mountain!"
Man Shang's words came as a surprise to Jiang Yun once again. He had originally thought that the remote place where he was in seclusion would inevitably be in an independent space, but it turned out not to be so.
Man Shang stood atop the mountain, his brow furrowed as a new arcane pattern surged forth from within him. It detached itself and plunged directly into the heart of the mountain.
And just a moment later, the mountain peak burst into light, countless fissures spreading from within its body, abruptly converging into a door.
Man Sang turned to face Jiang Yun and bowed, "Lord of the Wastes, please go ahead. My elder brother is inside. I won't go in!"
Looking at this door formed by the condensation of desolate patterns, a gleam appeared in Jiang Yun's eyes.
Because it seems that the remote area is indeed within this mountain, otherwise, it would be impossible for the desolate pattern on Man Shang to respond.
The very thought of meeting this person, who was both unfamiliar and familiar to him, even someone he could consider his "second disciple," filled Jiang Yun's heart with a surge of excitement at this moment.
With a slight nod, Jiang Yun finally took a step and walked through this weathered gate.
