The lone cultivator Zi Zai couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation, thinking that perhaps his disciple had uncovered something truly significant, a hidden weakness that could alter their current predicament.
Meanwhile, Master Heavenly Fate and Master Heavenly Luck did not impede Liang Sheng's actions. Their minds were still occupied with devising a strategy to counter "Zhou Shen," but no viable solution presented itself. Allowing Liang Sheng to purchase time seemed like a reasonable, if temporary, measure.
"I shall address you as Zhou Shen for now. There's a matter I've long wished to inquire about. The way your Demon Clan engages in battle, seemingly indifferent to their own lives, bears a striking resemblance to a practice I've observed among human cultivators. We refer to it as the Seeking Truth Lineage. I wonder if there's any connection between this and your Demon Clan?"
Master Heavenly Fate was taken aback by the question and couldn't help but furrow his brow. The Seeking Truth Lineage was a result of his and Master Heavenly Luck's experiments concerning the interplay of fate and fortune. How could it possibly relate to the Demon Clan?
However, in the very next instant, Master Heavenly Fate's expression shifted to one of disbelief, his eyes widening in astonishment at Zhou Shen's utterly unexpected response.
“Indeed, the enigmatic Elder Liang possesses remarkable foresight. Among the human race, perhaps no one other than yourself has discerned this connection.”
Master Heavenly Fate and Master Heavenly Luck were both dumbfounded, and Zi Zai, the lone cultivator, wore a similar look of surprise, never having anticipated his disciple would unravel such a profound secret so quickly.
Perhaps sensing that the ultimate outcome was already predetermined, "Zhou Shen" now felt inclined to divulge these secrets to Liang Sheng without reservation.
It might have stemmed from a sense of mutual respect; Liang Sheng had undeniably been his greatest rival, commanding both admiration and a degree of apprehension.
“In truth, upon my initial awakening, it coincided with the conclusion of your human race’s Ancient Cultivation Era.
At that time, I possessed the body of an individual akin to a member of the 'Zhou Family Young Members' and subsequently integrated myself within the human populace. My objective was to subtly influence and corrupt your cultivation system with my own level of understanding, seeking out kindred spirits along the way.
This grand design spanned an entire epoch, yet regrettably, it ultimately proved unsuccessful. While the ancient techniques of the human race fractured, their inherent fortune did not wane.
In fact, my excessive haste provoked the displeasure of Heaven and Earth, inflicting a devastating blow upon myself and compelling me into a prolonged slumber once more.
I had initially formulated alternative strategies to rectify the situation, but the forces of Heaven and Earth denied me the opportunity. Reflecting on it now fills me with immense regret.”
