This was the truth that Ming Kunzi hadn’t told Wang Baole!

Ming Kunzi’s physical body didn’t exist in this place. In reality, Ming Kunzi had already fallen during the war that year. However, there was a connection between him and the dark emperor that no one else knew about, that was why he had been revived here.

That was why he had started the dark dream and accepted Wang Baole as his disciple. However, there was a price to pay for everything. Ming Kunzi, who had been revived here, was only a soul. His mission was no longer the dark sect’s reincarnation to replace the Heavenly Dao, his mission… was to protect the tomb of the Dark Emperor.

No one was allowed to disturb the tomb of the Dark Emperor, not even the disciples of the dark sect. It would be disrespectful to come here!

Therefore… if one wanted to take away the remains of the Dark Emperor, one had to make sure that Ming Kunzi was truly dead. Once he was completely dead, the coffin of the Dark Emperor would open on its own.

If it had been anyone else who had come, they wouldn’t have been able to obtain the remains of the Dark Emperor. Even though Ming Kunzi was a soul body, he had once been one of the nine elders of the dark sect. His cultivation level was sky-high, and his abilities were unfathomable. The dark sect was nothing compared to what it was today, even the many divine emperors of the Weiyang clan were helpless against him.

Even though Chen Qingzi was his disciple, he couldn’t take him away. That was because… that was Ming Kunzi’s principle and mission. He wouldn’t give up, and he wouldn’t agree to it. Only… Wang Baole was his weakness!

He regretted accepting Wang Baole as his disciple. He had seen Wang Baole’s suffering, and he had seen the pressure he was under. His heart ached, and he felt gratified at Wang Baole’s words. He felt gratified that his original intentions hadn’t changed.

However, in the end… he still felt guilty. Only Wang Baole could make him sigh. He couldn’t bear to reject him, and he chose to go against his own dao. He chose… to fulfill his own disciple’s wish.

Chen Qingzi knew all of this. If it had been before he had integrated with the Heavenly Dao, Chen Qingzi might not have been able to do such a thing. However, after he had integrated with the Heavenly Dao… he had first been the Heavenly Dao, then Chen Qingzi.

Hence, Wang Baole arrived.

This was a ploy, a ploy that Ming Kunzi didn’t want to tell him about, and Chen Qingzi chose to remain silent.

Wang Baole’s body trembled. The wishing bottle had not only given him a look that could see through the truth, it had also given him a thought that could see through the ploy. Therefore, within a short period of time, all the answers appeared in his heart.

As soon as the answers appeared, his eyes turned bloodshot. He raised his head abruptly to look at the sky. This was the first time… he had looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure that was there!

He had never been like this, not even when he had been ostracized in the dark sect or when he had been targeted outside the Dark River. But now… his bottom line had been completely touched. His eyes were filled with anger and disbelief, he struggled as he let out a low growl.

“Senior brother, is this real?”

Chen Qingzi fell silent.

Wang Baole let out a bitter laugh and retreated abruptly. However, at that moment, Ming Kunzi’s aged voice reverberated in all directions.

“Baole!”

Wang Baole stopped in his tracks and looked at his master. His heart was filled with bitterness and a sense of loss that he was unable to vent.

“You asked me earlier why I said that your dao is incomplete. Now, I will give you an answer,”Ming Kunzi said slowly. His expression was gentle, and the love in his eyes grew deeper.

“Your initial Dao Enlightenment may have been complete, but your dao heart is unstable. All the souls here are illusory and not real… therefore, if you want your dao to be truly established, you need to… convert a true soul

“And I am this soul that was prepared for you. Convert me. You and I, master and Disciple, came from a great dream and have finally entered this tomb.”

Wang Baole’s body trembled. His eyes turned redder and redder. He staggered backward and looked at his master. Determination appeared in his eyes as he shook his head slowly.

Enlighten. That was what the dark sect called it. In reality, it was death. Even though he had redrawn the corpse’s face, determined his fate, and entered the cycle of reincarnation once again… the person after the cycle of reincarnation was no longer his master.

Outsiders might think that wasn’t the case, but as a dark child, how could Wang Baole not know that even though the origins were the same after the cycle of reincarnation, he was still not his original body.

There were no flowers that were exactly the same in this world.

He could draw corpse’s faces for others and send them through the cycle of reincarnation without any emotional fluctuations, but he couldn’t personally enlighten his master! His master could have lived for countless years. The so-called enlightening… was no different from killing his master!

“Master, I’m not taking the remains of the Dark Emperor!”Veins bulged on Wang Baole’s forehead. He roared and retreated once more. However, as he retreated, dozens of dark sect cultivators who were watching from afar immediately appeared, their figures exploded and charged towards them.

The weakest among them was at the perfected star realm. Three of them were even higher-ups in the galaxy. They were moving at high speed. Their target wasn’t Wang Baole, but… the coffin!

They wanted to extinguish the invisible soul lamps on the coffin. Even though they didn’t know how to do it, they could tell that once the coffin was opened, the dark lamps would extinguish themselves. Under other circumstances, if Ming Kunzi was unwilling, they wouldn’t have been able to do it, however, at that moment… Ming Kunzi chose to acquiesce.

In that instant, the figures approached with a loud bang. The murderous intent in Wang Baole’s eyes erupted for the first time in the nine serene galaxy. His cultivation was activated instantly. The physical strength of the galaxy was even more violent. The soul of a perfected star.., they seemed to let out roars as well. Their bodies formed dozens of afterimages. The moment the dark sect cultivators arrived, they charged forward to stop them.

A loud boom rang out. The two of them collided directly on top of the coffin. This was the first time Wang Baole had erupted in this place. His aura surged into the sky. The dozens of dark sect cultivators.., almost ninety percent of them spat out blood when they came into contact with Wang Baole’s afterimages. They were sent tumbling backward, their faces filled with shock.

Even though the three higher-beings from the galaxy didn’t spit out blood, their bodies were still trembling violently. Wang Baole had used his physical body and the power of his soul to force them back seventy to eighty feet.

“Don’t force me to kill!”Wang Baole’s hair fluttered in the wind, and blood trickled out of the corners of his mouth. After all, he had faced so many people in an instant. Even if he was extraordinary, he had still been injured. However, the killing intent in his eyes grew even stronger at that moment.

From the time he had wanted to obtain the remains of the dark emperor for his senior brother to the time he had prevented the dark sect from obtaining it, the former was an obsession, and the latter… was an obsession!

Only with an obsession could one cultivate. Without an obsession, even if he was with the galaxy, what could he do!

Wang Baole’s cultivation erupted once again. He raised his right hand and waved it. Immediately, the constellation diagram behind him materialized. Countless Dharmic treasures appeared around it. They shone with a dazzling light. Ming Kunzi sighed softly, he raised his head and looked at the figure of his other disciple in the sky.

“What… Are You Thinking?”

The dark sect cultivators who had been forced to retreat all around had complicated expressions on their faces.

“Dark child, why do you have to do this…”one of the galactic domains finally acknowledged Wang Baole’s identity and spoke bitterly.

“We know how difficult it is for you, but this is all for the sake of the dark sect’s rise. The ninth elder has also agreed…”

“Dark child, please allow us to help you perfect your Great Dao. After this, we will be led by the Dark Child!”The three Galactic Domain Almighties said.

“No!”Wang Baole raised his right hand and formed a hand seal. Immediately, the star Atlas behind him rumbled. The image of the divine bull materialized, and its aura erupted once again. It shook the surroundings, and a cold snort came from afar.

Two people spoke. It was the woman who had hidden her strength, and the man who didn’t seem to exist. The two of them flew over from not too far away. They turned into two long arcs and approached each other in the blink of an eye, they began to merge.

The long arcs were merging, and their bodies were merging as well. The merging didn’t last for long. In the span of three to five breaths, the long arcs merged into one, and the Yin and Yang merged into one. What appeared before Wang Baole was a gender-neutral cultivator, it was impossible to tell if it was a male or female cultivator. In that instant, their cultivation broke through the perfected stellar realm and reached the celestial domain realm. Their auras were even more terrifying than those of the three mighty figures from the celestial domain.

After appearing, the person didn’t pause for even a moment. He pointed at Wang Baole.

“The dark sect’s rise can not be allowed to fail. Wang Baole… you are a dark child in vain. If that’s the case… I will replace you as the source of the Dark Sect’s Rise!”
