Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Inside the golden space.

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

Especially after the golden figure finished saying "with just a slight effort," the atmosphere grew even eerily stranger.

Chu Yuan suddenly stood stiffly in place, his gaze firmly fixed on the golden figure.

"You… Do you have any questions?"

The golden figure paused, seemingly baffled by Chu Yuan's reaction as well.

"So, the reason my realm was deducted, it was because of you?"

Chu Yuan's somewhat blurry eyes stared at the golden figure, and one couldn't make out joy, anger, sorrow, or pleasure in his tone.

But it wasn't hard to hear that his voice sounded odd.

"What realm deduction? You have always been a top-notch powerhouse, possessing the majority of the Heavenly Dao Origin, always able to wield the Power of the Heavenly Dao. The Old Heavenly Dao's method simply sealed this power of yours, is all, even giving you a guise of a realm."

The golden figure patiently explained to Chu Yuan.

"So, did you devour my realm?"

Chu Yuan, regardless of anything else, still kept his gaze tightly on the golden figure.

"You can't understand it that way..."

The golden figure wanted to explain something else.

A roar burst forth.

"I understand you, my foot!"

Chu Yuan exploded into action, his entire body seemingly carrying the weight of heaven and earth as he fiercely charged toward the golden figure.

Oh, he was fierce.

He had reached the end of his patience.

Turns out, the decline of his realm has been caused by this troublemaker!

He knew it; how could his followers make a mistake.

It was all this troublemaker's fault.

The enraged Chu Yuan couldn't care less about anything else; he approached and threw a punch directly at the golden figure.

His punch, as if embodying the will of the entire heavens and earth, unleashed a force that made the phantom figures of all beings manifest behind him, as if he intended to bulldoze everything in existence.

The golden figure was completely caught off guard and was blown to pieces by Chu Yuan's punch.

But it was only for a moment.

Once again, countless glimmers of gold appeared.

The golden figure reassembled itself once more.

"Respected one, please quell your anger. You and I are one and the same, how could you possibly kill me?"

"If the respected one is angry about the realm, there's no need. You will soon be the one controlling the entire Heavenly Dao, and the realm, to you, will be utterly useless."

The golden figure continued to explain to Chu Yuan, showing no sign of anger whatsoever.

"So, this is your reason for devouring my realm?"

Although Chu Yuan had calmed down slightly, there was still anger burning within him.

"Respected one, the realm isn't the crucial point..."

The golden figure wanted to say more.

But before it could finish,

the next moment, Chu Yuan struck again.

Boom!

The entire golden space trembled.

Chu Yuan unleashed punch after punch, each blow shaking the whole golden space with terrifying force.

The golden figure was torn apart again and again, only to reassemble each time.

This lasted for quite a while before Chu Yuan finally stopped.

"Respected one, have you vented enough?"

The voice of the golden figure was calm, unaffected by its continuous bombardment.

"Speak then. So now, what's going on?"

Having vented the rage in his heart, Chu Yuan felt much better, but his tone was still quite unfriendly as he coldly glanced at the golden figure.

"Respected one, you are now needed to take your place, to merge with the Heavenly Dao, to complete the New Heavenly Dao. The Old Heavenly Dao seeks to incite the Catastrophic Tribulation to return to this world, and we must stop it. But I have grown for too short a time to contend with it, hence requiring the respected one to take your place."

The golden figure faced Chu Yuan and spoke.

"Take my place? This thing can still take a place? So, you mean I'm to merge into you? Wouldn't I then cease to exist?"

Chu Yuan frowned.

Have him complete the Heavenly Dao? Isn't that suicidal?

"Not at all, the Heavenly Dao originally lacks consciousness, but you, Your Honor, are an exception. You possess most of the Heavenly Dao Origin and should naturally merge with the Heavenly Dao. However, you have consciousness, and after merging, Your Honor will be able to become a conscious Heavenly Dao."

The figure shrouded in golden light spoke faintly.

"So, you're saying that I don't have to pay any price? I can just become what you called that Heavenly Dao? Is there really such a good deal?"

Chu Yuan found it hard to believe that such a piece of pie would fall from the sky.

And drop precisely onto his head, no less.

"Your Honor, as I said, you are the Heavenly Dao!!!"

The figure in golden light seemed somewhat anxious.

"Do you have any proof? What if you're trying to possess me? Then wouldn't I be wronged."

Chu Yuan remained skeptical.

The golden figure: "..."

Why is it that when you usually teach the followers, your brain isn't this sharp, but when it comes to things like this, suddenly your brain works?

Still wanting proof...

Where am I supposed to find proof?

And besides, what's the point of possessing you when you're just a sliver of will left?

The golden figure fell silent, not knowing what to say.

In the end, the golden figure could only speak again with resignation.

"Your Honor, with your current state, you should be able to feel it. You can easily control the power of the entire world. This cannot be faked, you are intrinsically the Heavenly Dao," said the figure in golden light, shaking its head.

"Then why are you able to talk to me? According to what you said, you are the Heavenly Dao, but isn't the Heavenly Dao unconscious?" Chu Yuan raised his eyebrow and asked.

"Being unconscious doesn't mean having no brain... Besides, Your Honor, both you and I are the Heavenly Dao. Isn't it normal that the Heavenly Dao can communicate with each other?"

The figure in golden light said with some exasperation.

Upon hearing this.

Chu Yuan began to believe a little.

But he didn't fully trust the figure.

He was no longer the Chu Yuan from before.

Having been a Demon Saint for a time.

The current Chu Yuan had a much more mature mind than before.

In the end, he agreed to what the golden figure had described.

To merge with the Heavenly Dao and become the Heavenly Dao.

However, Chu Yuan craftily ejected a sliver of his consciousness from his own being, tossing it aside, just in case.

The golden figure saw all this but said nothing further.

It began to utilize the power of the Heavenly Dao to merge with Chu Yuan.

As the power of the Heavenly Dao enveloped Chu Yuan,

His eyes abruptly widened.

Streams of memories surfaced from the depths of his heart.

These memories chronicled everything he wanted to know.

In an instant, he understood everything.

He really was the Heavenly Dao.

To be precise, both yes and no.

His original form was a streak of Divine Light, whose task was to travel through countless worlds, but it was hijacked while passing through this realm and even got split in two.

His creation was due to merging with the Heavenly Dao Origin, which led to the birth of a conscious entity.

Everything was as this Heavenly Dao had said.

Chu Yuan was momentarily stunned.

Then, layer upon layer of golden light surged around him, wrapping him up to form a cocoon. The next moment, he fell into a deep sleep.

His slumber caused the entire Heavenly Dao Space to dim.

Chu Yuan's sleep was the New Heavenly Dao's slumber...

From this moment on, Chu Yuan represented the New Heavenly Dao.

But he was different, for the New Heavenly Dao was Chu Yuan, yet Chu Yuan wasn't entirely the New Heavenly Dao...
