I Truly Am The Villian Chapter 2415 - 2414: The Holy Ancestor's Greed, Unsealing the Ancient Demon Cave
The moment Holy Ancestor saw the figure in the blue robe, he was exceedingly vigilant.
After all, the ring had been thrown down by Xu Zimei.
He didn't know what kind of conspiracy lay within.
"Who are you?" Holy Ancestor frowned and asked.
He didn't engage, because he could sense that the figure in the blue robe was merely a projection.
Even destroying it would be meaningless.
"You must be the Holy Ancestor," the blue-robed man looked at him, scrutinizing with great interest.
This kind of gaze made Holy Ancestor extremely displeased.
After all, it was the gaze of a superior examining an inferior.
And Holy Ancestor, who had been above others for countless years, couldn't possibly accept this.
Only to hear his cold sneer: "Pretending to be mysterious, who exactly are you?"
"I am from beyond the domain," the blue-robed man said casually.
"To put it simply, from a world outside the Nine Domains World."
As soon as these words were spoken, Holy Ancestor's expression changed slightly.
He said, "Impossible, the Nine Domains World has been completely sealed, how can Heavenly Dao allow outsiders to enter."
The blue-robed man merely chuckled, remaining silent.
"To you natives, Heavenly Dao is invincible."
"But for those outside, it's not that lethal."
"After all, the Nine Domains World is just a large world, but the world I hail from is a Yellow-class world."
"Its Origin Power is far stronger than that of the Nine Domains, finding a way to enter is not a formidable task."
Although Holy Ancestor still had doubts about the blue-robed man's words, deep down he already believed most of it.
The only hesitation was how this blue-robed man was involved with Xu Zimei.
Holy Ancestor voiced his confusion.
"We merely struck a deal," the blue-robed man explained.
"He refused to be my spokesperson."
"So the lord helped me find new spokesmen, and the primary target is you."
"What do you want from me?" Holy Ancestor was instantly alert.
"Don't you want to leave this world?" the blue-robed man asked.
"No, I'm doing well here, why leave?" Holy Ancestor shook his head straightforwardly.
"No, you desire to leave; you must listen to your inner self," the blue-robed man coaxed persuasively.
"Actually, at your level, you should have noticed that your progress has stagnated."
"No matter how hard you try, you can't advance any further because you've reached the limit. Heavenly Dao won't permit you to get stronger."
At this, the blue-robed man watched Holy Ancestor.
He calmly asked, "Do you desire strength?"
"Escape the Nine Domains World, the sea is vast beyond, the sky is high for birds to fly freely — wouldn't that be a brighter future?"
"You want me to challenge heaven?" Holy Ancestor sneered.
"Are you sent by the Demon Lord to persuade me?"
"Unfortunately, you've miscalculated. I am content with the status quo and uninterested in the future you depict."
"I have no relation to the Demon Lord, you need not be hostile," the blue-robed man continued.
"I can see your inner desire for strength."
"And I'm not asking you to challenge heaven."
"If you're willing, I can assist you like Great Emperor Tianqi did, helping you leave the Nine Domains World."
"You know, the Nine Domains World is like a lake, its waters are already full.
To progress further, you must leap from the lake to the sea, where the future lies."
This time, Holy Ancestor fell into rare silence.
Perhaps the flames of a strong desire in him were ignited for a moment.
He was tempted.
But in the next instant, Holy Ancestor forcefully suppressed his desires.
He took a deep breath.
Muttering calming words to silence his mind.
Human mortality comes from too much desire, too much greed.
Human desire is infinite.
Like those Heaven Challengers.
Their strength already peaked in the Nine Domains.
They lived the life countless people dreamt of.
Yet they refused to stop, wanting to challenge heaven, eventually shattered soul and all.
This is greed.
Holy Ancestor realized his greed had stirred just now.
Yet he had strong self-control.
He glanced at the blue-robed man, saying, "You needn't tempt me; too much greed yields nothing in the end."
"I am the best in the Nine Domains World, nothing wrong with it."
After saying this, Holy Ancestor waved his hand broadly.
Completely erasing everything in front of him.
He didn't want to hear any more from the blue-robed man.
Because the other's voice carried a kind of allure that was hard to resist.
Returning his gaze to the Holy Court, Holy Ancestor looked at the ring in his hand.
He originally intended to discard it, but ultimately, unknowingly, he kept it.
The blue-robed man did not become angry.
Instead, a voice sounded from the ring.
"Think it over, my offer remains valid."
......
At that moment, Holy Ancestor's mind was no longer on the blue-robed man.
He knew Xu Zimei took the Space Ancient God's legacy.
Thus, the seal of the Ancient Demon Cave surely couldn't last much longer.
Next would be the life and death battle with the Demon Lord.
Whoever wins will be the new master of the Nine Domains World.
Either the Holy Court continues ruling this world or Demon's Advent brings apocalypse once more.
It was an exceedingly critical affair.
Holy Ancestor began to issue commands.
All members of the Holy Court, including the loose cultivators wishing to join, were instructed to gather in the Holy Court.
The numbers were extraordinarily vast.
Even the Holy Court's strongest formation, the Annihilation Disc Formation, was activated.
Holy Ancestor sat high atop the Holy Court, awaiting the Demon Lord's arrival.
Moreover, he knew it wasn't just the Demon Lord this time.
Even the masters of other domains might join in.
Such as the Lord of the Dead Spirits, the Thousand Calamities Doomsday, and others.
This was their best chance.
Miss this opportunity, and they may never rise again, so they won't miss it.
Holy Ancestor acted like a mastermind, directing the vast machine of the Holy Court into motion.
The Holy Court began preparation for the upcoming battle.
......
Meanwhile, in Xu Zimei's case.
Having used the Space Ancient God and Time Ancient God's legacies.
His traveling speed had become exceedingly fast.
This time, he prepared to head to the Land at World's End.
There, where the seal of the Ancient Demon Cave was weakest.
Also the best place to penetrate the seal using Ancient God's legacy.
The Demon Race had always been unavoidable for Xu Zimei.
It was as if he bore the Demon Lord's mark.
Though the Demon Lord was immortal, each generation could resurrect.
Yet between himself and the last Demon Lord, ultimately are not the same person.
If he died, even if a new Demon Lord resurrected, it wouldn't be his consciousness.
Thus, Xu Zimei never regarded rebirth as his ultimate card.
Now, he headed toward the Ancient Demon Cave.
In the unseen, as if summoned, he felt a surge of excitement.
