You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?

"Since Duanmu Yan is still alive, I'm afraid there could be some trouble."

Lin Yue pondered for a moment and said, "Master and Second Brother, do you think the living Duanmu Yan is the true body or the second primordial spirit?"

"What do you think?" The Second Prince smiled and asked him in return.

The Main Hall Master also looked at him.

"From the perspective of the human heart, it should be the second primordial spirit that died."

Lin Yue said, "If I were to carry out a mission that might lead to my death, I would try to send the second primordial spirit, even if that is still me. In my view, that is not really me."

The Second Prince nodded slightly and said, "Logically, that's true, but I believe it should be the true body that died."

The Main Hall Master also smiled and said, "If it were Duanmu Yan, it should indeed be the true body that died this time."

"Oh?" Lin Yue raised his eyebrows slightly and couldn't help but ask, "Why do you think so?"

"You approached it from a personal standpoint, a normal person's point of view, which isn't wrong."

The Second Prince said, "But Duanmu Yan is also someone whose Dao heart has entered the Saint realm. Given that his goal is to destroy the Human Clan, what do you think he values more?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yue suddenly understood the Second Prince's meaning.

"To him, life and death are not important."

The Main Hall Master said, "Therefore, whichever has a greater chance to destroy the Human Clan, the true body or the second primordial spirit, that's the one he would leave behind."

"In that case, it should indeed be the true body that died this time..." Lin Yue said softly, "The true body can choose which memories to leave to the second primordial spirit, discarding unnecessary memories, emotions, and ambitions that might affect revenge, thus creating a second primordial spirit solely focused on destroying the Human Clan."

A person's character is determined by their experiences, in other words, memories shape the human heart.

Eliminating the memories of mortals and low-level cultivators might be possible, but once the primordial spirit is condensed, memories are etched into its depths, becoming a part of it, making them almost impossible to forget.

Therefore, only after condensing the primordial spirit can one awaken memories of past lives in the next life.

When forming the second primordial spirit, one can choose which memories to retain, shaping its character.

Lin Yue couldn't help but recall that the Crown Prince's past and present were completely different, perhaps for this very reason?

However, the Crown Prince's cold and merciless nature seemed different.

He gathered his thoughts and frowned, "If Duanmu Yan's second primordial spirit is still alive, he will surely return. Although he doesn't know it was me who killed the true body, even with the demon god's cooperation, his true body died, so he will probably become more cautious."

"A person whose intentions are hard to predict is indeed troublesome." The Second Prince nodded lightly.

If not for using Lin Yue to contact Duanmu Yan's true body, they wouldn't have been able to leave a mark on him.

Without seeing the true body, there was nothing they could do.

Whether the Crown Prince used the power of the Heavenly Dao to divine, or he used his heart to perceive, they couldn't locate a person whose intentions were hard to predict, and other methods were even more useless.

"However, with your current strength, there's no need to be overly fearful of that Duanmu Yan."

The Second Prince looked at Lin Yue and said, "But you should indeed be wary of the hidden demon god, not knowing exactly which demon god of the Demon Clan it is."

"Second Brother, even with your mastery in the heart phase, can't you find the other party?" Lin Yue couldn't help but ask.

"Transcending heaven and earth is not so easily broken." The Second Prince shook his head slightly, "If I had the ability to find that demon god, they wouldn't be acting in Great Yong."

"What about the Crown Prince?" Lin Yue asked.

The Second Prince said softly, "Although the Crown Prince can borrow the power of the Heavenly Dao, the demon god, having transcended heaven and earth, is like a person away from the sea; the storms at sea cannot reach them. Unless the Crown Prince does not hesitate to pay the price, like a tsunami engulfing the land, countless would surely die."

Lin Yue understood.

A proving strong person of the heart path could conceal all traces left in the world.

He hadn't expected that even the Second Prince couldn't do anything, not even knowing who the other party was.

A proving strong person, truly terrifying.

Lin Yue couldn't help but say, "The Demon Clan has twelve ancestors, along with numerous demon gods, but the Human Clan's proving strong seemed to be few, how could they resist?"

Before the founding of Great Yong, the proving strong of the Human Clan included the Human Ancestor, Human Emperor, Main Hall Master, and the ancestors of the Three Religions, as well as the State Preceptor of the previous dynasty.

Moreover, the Human Ancestor was in a dormant state, and the Human Emperor was missing.

Yet they still managed to withstand those many proving strong of the Demon Clan?

"Previously... the Three Religions Ancestors, especially your master, were far stronger than ordinary demon gods, even the Demon Clan's ancestors." The Second Prince smiled slightly.

"Even the strongest ability is useless, only self-imprisonment remains..." The Main Hall Master sighed helplessly.

Lin Yue knew his master had practiced the demonization cultivation method, and once tainted by the Source of Eternal Night, he would truly become part of the Demon Clan.

Thus, his master's true body had always hidden in the deepest part of the Human Clan's hall, self-imprisoned, so that even if the Demon Clan's plans succeeded in demonizing his master, his master would be confined within the hall, unable to go out and cause havoc.

In normal times, his master would only occasionally make a move with the Martial Arts True Body.

"Are the Human Clan's proving strong really stronger than the Demon Clan's?" Lin Yue asked in confusion.

The Second Prince nodded slightly and said, "For the Ancient Gods of Eternal Night, the Demon Clan is a more inferior race, and refining divine power is more difficult for them compared to the Human Clan. In the past, even most demon gods were unable to refine the ancient divine power, so they couldn't compare to the proving strong of the Human Clan."

Lin Yue finally understood.

"My disciple, you should strive to harmonize as soon as possible, to quickly obtain the memories of Xiahou Shou's Harmonization Stage."

The Main Hall Master sighed, "One thousand three hundred years ago, after Xiahou Shou defected to the Demon Clan, who knows what happened? Even the ancestors of the Demon Clan and demon gods began to refine divine power, greatly enhancing their strength, which almost led to the extinction of the Human Clan. This must be the great secret the Demon Clan desires from you so much."
