I Am Loaded with Passive Skills

Chapter 4288: Chapter 2002: Three Rivers

"Once again, the aura of the Great Dao River..."

In the sword tower, the Power of Divinity and the Diabolical Force transformed into a sea of power in black and white, spreading flat and wide.

Above it, the primordial coffin floated, and below it, the River of Inner Demons had completely dissolved, merging into the God Demon Sea, as if they were becoming one.

Through this Sea of Dao, the Holy Ancestor could easily draw power from the Heavenly Path of the Shengshen Continent.

The Holy Path encompasses everything.

Naturally, Saint Xin could grasp and control the five elements, and even comprehend attributes beyond the five elements.

"The God Demon Path is about to form..."

The Holy Path dispenses power equally, distributing it to cultivators in all five regions for cultivation.

The Divine Dao is superior to the Holy Path, ruling over the multitude of Holy Paths, and combined with the River of Inner Demons from the Devil Path.

The moment the God Demon Sea is fully formed, even if the Ten Ancestors were to be resurrected, Saint Xin believed they would be hard-pressed to withstand his power.

Yet he was still half a step short!

In the primordial coffin, the damage caused by The Divine was manifesting at this moment.

The Demon Ancestor’s body was missing a head, and despite spending five or six days and countless heavenly resources and earthly treasures, it had yet to recover.

Reluctantly, Saint Xin melted down Zi Chong’s body to form a head, barely pushing the newly refined God Demon Path Body one step further.

The body within the coffin had now turned crystalline, gathering all power into its eyes, bright like stars.

One eye of divinity, one eye of demonic nature, far superior to the God Devil Eyes of the Lei family, the highest grade of God Demon Dao Eyes.

"Yet, it still requires some time to reach final-stage..."

After all, the power was merely fused from Zi Chong, not the body head that had not been gestating in the primordial coffin for numerous epochs.

That missing part still needed improvement.

The path to Saint Xin’s final-stage was abruptly held back by the past deeds of The Divine, causing great hatred in his heart.

And just then, he sensed the power of the Great Dao River stealthily appearing.

"The Memory Path..."

"Is the other one the Will Path?"

The Will Path was previously speculated to be Nuozu.

But now, Nuozu shouldn’t be appearing.

Mulling it over, no one in the five regions matched, as Xu Xiaoshou, who was most likely to have inherited Nuozu’s Will Path, had also "died."

"Moreover, the power of the River of Will isn’t appearing on the continent, nor in the Apricot Realm, the Holy Emperor’s secret realm, Abyss Island, etc..."

In the primordial coffin, Saint Xin’s eyes opened, shining brightly, illuminating the darkness.

Better to avoid unnecessary matters, he subconsciously wanted to ignore this and focus on the Dao Ancestor and Medicine Ancestor, whose internal clash was about to resolve.

Yet he suddenly realized there might be guidance involved.

"Go!"

Without any hesitation, Saint Xin flicked, and a drop of blood essence flew from his fingertips.

The dual nature of divinity and devil in the blood essence quickly manifested as Zi Chong’s appearance, forming an avatar, pushing open the coffin and leaving the sword tower.

"Where could it be?"

The avatar Zi Chong frowned in contemplation.

The saint’s will bloomed, searching again and again through the five regions, the Holy Emperor’s secret realm, Abyss Island, and other planes.

Even some extradimensional space worlds connected to the Shengshen Continent were not overlooked, but no trace was found.

"That’s strange..."

"Could it be hidden within the time realm?"

The time realm indeed connects with the Shengshen Continent.

However, firstly, the time realm’s Dao Methods are chaotic, making it unsuitable for a prolonged stay, and secondly, since Bazhun’an has entered the time realm, no one else would want to go in there.

Even if there was a one in a billion chance, running into Bazhun’an and getting struck down severely injured would be a huge loss.

Thus, Saint Xin was certain that neither himself, Medicine Ancestor, Dao Ancestor, nor the desperate Cursed Yin would have thought of hiding in the time realm.

Yet, apart from the time realm, there really was no other hiding place!

"Even if it’s unlikely, I must see it with my own eyes."

The avatar Zi Chong received the message, hesitating for a moment, still reluctant.

But it couldn’t resist being just an avatar, and Saint Xin’s will urged it strongly, ignoring the life and death of the avatar.

"Then let’s take a look."

...

"Xu Xiaoshou."

In the Venerable Extreme Slash space, the Dharma Form of the War Ancestor clearly saw the return of Xu Xiaoshou’s soul, noticing his absent-mindedness, and promptly asked: "What’s wrong, did your Enlightenment go astray?"

"Wu Bao..."

Seeing the War Ancestor again, Xu Xiaoshou felt a wave of affection.

If everyone in the world were like The Divine and the War Ancestor, how wonderful, how peaceful it would be?

"There’s indeed a perplexing question..."

Xu Xiaoshou hesitated for a moment, then iterated, "If there’s a person, or rather two people, who are sometimes friends and sometimes foes, and you can’t really tell when they’ll harm you..."

Before he finished, the War Ancestor, being a man of experience, had already understood, shaking his head decisively, he said:

"Kill."

Ugh...

Alright!

No!

Alright, but that’s a bit too decisive.

"But, to carry the conversation forward," Xu Xiaoshou remembered the alliance with Dao Qiongcang and the support from the Dao Ancestor in the black wheel, "perhaps they have done you some favors..."

"Then you’ll have to discern."

"How do you discern?"

"Is it an unconditional favor or one given with expectations?" the War Ancestor stated firmly.

Xu Xiaoshou pondered a bit, asking one by one: "If it’s the former?"

"A drop of kindness, repay it with a spring."

"And if it’s the latter?"

"Kill."

Ugh...

So straightforward?

Xu Xiaoshou was indeed tempted because the path of The Divine and the War Ancestor was one he agreed with.

But he couldn’t help but ask:

"Why?"

He really wanted to know where his considerations differed from those of people like the War Ancestor and The Divine.
