Zhou Shen revealed that after his second awakening, he shifted his focus from destroying the Human Clan's cultivation system to manipulating them into challenging the heavens directly. He cultivated in secret, influencing cultivators and establishing the Seeking Truth Sect. His ultimate goal was to provoke the heavens and earth into abandoning the Human Clan, which he ultimately achieved by sacrificing himself and encouraging others to question the natural order, leading to the abandonment of the Seeking Truth Sect.

Zi Zai, the independent cultivator, remained somewhat perplexed by the unfolding events. Despite the Demon Ancestor's formidable display, the trajectory for the Human Clan's Heaven and Earth protagonists seemed unaltered, leaving him to question the sudden shift in outcome.

However, Liang Sheng harbored his own understanding. Many of his lingering doubts were now dispelled. Reflecting on the defaced murals discovered within the underground realm of the Beast Marshland, he surmised that the Demon Clan was likely responsible for their damage.

This act, as he deduced, was a precaution against the Human Clan's Seeking the Truth lineage being identified. To ensure their secrets remained hidden, the Demon Clan had to actively prevent such records from falling into Human Clan hands.

Still, Liang Sheng felt compelled to verify one last detail. While his current hypothesis seemed remarkably close to the truth, a final query wouldn't hurt.

“How have you managed to persist until this day? Even the greatest predecessors of the Human Clan succumbed to the erosion of time. How is it possible for you to be resurrected after death?”

This was, in essence, Liang Sheng's most pressing question. Upon hearing this, both Master Heavenly Fate and Zhou Shen turned their expectant gazes towards "Zhou Shen," sharing the same profound curiosity.

"Zhou Shen" let out a soft chuckle in response to the inquiry. He had previously alluded to the secret of resurrection, yet he had never directly addressed this specific question.

While Zhou Shen seemed content to let Liang Sheng and the others ponder the reason, Liang Sheng, sensing Zhou Shen's unwillingness to elaborate, chose not to press further.

It dawned on Liang Sheng that perhaps the Demon Ancestor's so-called resurrection wasn't a true return from death. It was more probable that only a consciousness had been preserved.

Much like Huang Yifan's puppet body, which operated through consciousness, Zhou Shen likely employed alternative means to facilitate the revival of the Demon Ancestor's awareness.

Though the intricacies of this situation were undoubtedly complex, it did not preclude them from discovering the truth, even if the other party remained reticent.

Thus, upon confirming Zhou Shen's refusal to provide an answer, Liang Sheng made a sudden move, catching Master Heavenly Fate and Zhou Shen off guard.

This immediate resort to action, a characteristic trait of the Free Gate, was a clear testament to a disciple embodying the spirit of their master.

The independent cultivator, Zi Zai, observed Master Heavenly Fate's reaction but offered no comment. Master Heavenly Fate, in turn, watched quietly, making no attempt to intervene in Liang Sheng's actions.
