Chapter 108: Awakening

  Cang Ye opened his eyes and swept a glance over the entire grand hall, only to find that after he had walked out of that platform, he had directly arrived here.

  Looking at his companions with stable auras, a faint smile appeared on his face. Although he didn't obtain the inheritance of a sage who governed the world, what he gained in that illusory space was far more than any so-called inheritance.

  The shadow sat quietly on that rotten throne, until now, Cang Ye had not discovered his existence.

  The quiet feeling suddenly realized that this space seemed to be on the verge of collapse, thinking about the appearance of the giant shadow that pierced the sky before, and finally understood everything.

  It was that eternal giant shadow that extracted all the power of this divine country to provide power for the illusion that the youth he guarded had experienced.

  I don't know what kind of illusion it is, but it has exhausted all the power of this strongest country left by the Three Calamity Saint to pass on.

  However, it's no use thinking about it anymore. The current shadow is waiting for the arrival of the final moment. In fact, fate had already been decided when he crushed his own life crystal. Such a person would never be willing to sacrifice himself, and with his proud nature, even if he fell, he would absolutely not allow himself to become an ordinary existence. However, being able to witness a magnificent rise before falling is also a compensation for his disappearance.

  "Hey young man, come over here..."

  He no longer has the strength to walk in front of Cang Ye, and for the last time, he hopes to have a conversation with him, which is also a compensation for his own life.

  As a strange sound arose, Cang Ye turned his head, and his pupils slightly contracted. Unexpectedly, after experiencing so many tribulations, he still missed it!

  "Are you really calling me?"

  No need to worry too much, having severed the three lives and understood the truth of destruction, he was already very sensitive to the breath of destruction. The shadow in front of him had already reached the edge of its final disappearance, and now, no matter how terrifying his existence was before, there wasn't much power left behind, right?

  "The only one who can wake up here is you. Although I don't know what kind of experience you've been through, I can feel that the current you already has the qualifications to compete for the true peak of the world. Before I fall, I hope to have a talk with you."

  She nodded slightly, but Cang Ye still maintained a sense of vigilance.

  Seeing Cang Ye's vigilance, this shadow didn't make any movement. It just remained still and quietly opened its mouth.

  "I am the Lord of the Demon Realm, a Holy Master of the Demon Clan. Hehe, you don't know what it means to be a Holy Master, do you?" Looking at Cang Ye's puzzled expression, Shadow also suddenly realized that in this world, it was probably impossible to know about the situation in the Main Realm.

  "The Sacred Ruler is an existence that transcends the National Master, while the National Master is a title for a strong divine ruler who can dominate the national borders!"

  "Among hundreds of gods, only a handful can become national masters, and only the strongest national master has the qualification to march towards the holy master! The holy master, as long as he takes one more step, passes through the calamity of the sage, can become that eternal and immortal, transcendent ruler of the world... Alas, alas, I was still defeated by this calamity of the sage..."

  Listening to that reluctant tone, Cang Ye's heart was also filled with regret. If only he had taken the last step, the person in front of him would have been able to transcend mortality and become an existence that even heaven and earth could not erase!

  "In those years, if it weren't for the greedy heart that inherited the ancient sacred secret realm, I wouldn't have ended up in a situation where even the Sage's tribulation couldn't be overcome. In the end, it was my own greed that ruined me!"

  "At first, when the inheritance realm of this ancient saint appeared in the main world, it caused a huge sensation. Although the inheritance of ordinary saints had already lost its effect on the existence of the national master level, but he was different, he was a three-tribulation saint! A three-tribulation saint, what a great existence, yet unexpectedly, he fell in the end..."

  As he listened to this being who was about to die quietly talk about the things in the main world, Cang Ye suddenly felt that this world was originally so vast!

  "In pursuit of this inheritance, we, along with several powerful saints from the Human, Demon, God, and Soul tribes, entered this secret realm together. However, in the end, we discovered that the inheritance of this Three-Calamity Saint was too terrifying. Even I, who am almost a Half-Step Saint, was unable to pass the test, and my physical body ultimately dispersed here. The countless gods and god-kings who entered with me also perished together in this space..."

  Upon hearing this, Cang Ye suddenly recalled the time he had entered, seeing those undying skeletons and terrifying rivers of blood; it turned out that these were actually formed from the deaths of countless powerful beings!

  "In this way, I, who have lost my physical body, will continue to wait here for the arrival of a batch of strong individuals, hoping that one of them can obtain the inheritance and survive, so that I can seize the opportunity to reincarnate and leave this place!"

  Upon hearing this, the reincarnation appeared on his palm. Soul Snatching! That's something that can only be done by erasing a person's soul!

  Seeing Cang Ye's appearance, the shadow smiled lightly.

  "Don't worry, I won't do that to you. After all, you..."

  The sound came to this point and stopped abruptly. It was originally a gentle laugh, but at this time it had an added hint of panic!

  "What's wrong with me?"

  Seeing the shadow not making a sound, Cang Ye wanted to know the outcome. He opened his mouth for the first time to ask.

  "There's nothing much, some things you will eventually understand."

  Upon hearing this, Cang Ye gave up on the idea of continuing to ask questions. However, he had no idea about the terror in the heart of the Shadow! Just now when he wanted to mention the existence of Tong Tian Hei Ying, he felt an enormous sense of danger!

  Even he, who was no longer afraid of death, would be afraid to mention the existence of the dark shadow at this time! Thinking of this, the shadow became even more uneasy. It really didn't occur to him that the giant shadow that pierced the sky was actually an existence that could manipulate fate itself!

  "Ah, we're all going to die anyway. Let's not talk about those unimportant things anymore. Young man, I called you here for just one thing, and I hope you can help me achieve it."

  "What?" Hearing that he was going to help, Cang Ye didn't refute it. If there were things he could lend a hand with, he wouldn't go out of his way to decline.

  "I, the demon clan's descendant, was given the treasure of our clan to help me overcome the great calamity and become a wise ruler. However, I didn't expect that with my downfall, the treasure would also be left behind in this space. So, I hope you can help me return it to the demon clan in the main realm, and at that time, my clan will surely express our gratitude!"

  Upon hearing Shadow's words, Cang Ye nodded his head. Anyway, once he entered the main realm, he would have to travel around as well. At that time, he could help out a bit, and it wasn't a big deal. As for Shadow's thanks, Cang Ye thought they were unnecessary. After all, his cultivation method was different from others, and now, Cang Ye didn't need any external things to help himself.

  Weapons have reincarnation, as he continues to upgrade, the reincarnation will inevitably become stronger. Apart from reincarnation, he also has his past self, bringing ultimate equipment - Wudongtian Armor, from another world. However, after leaving the fantasy realm, he can no longer activate it. But once he is able to break through and ascend to the main interface, I believe that at that time, he will be able to reawaken this terrifying equipment!

  So, as for the so-called deep gratitude, Cang Ye just smiled slightly.

  "After I dissipate for the last time, a ancient stone will be left behind, that is the most precious heritage of my clan, but this treasure is only useful to my demon clan, others who obtain it will only see it as just a piece of stone."

  "I understand what you mean, I will return the things to your family and won't embezzle them."

  After hearing Cang Ye's explanation, Shadow knew he had misunderstood. However, he didn't go to explain and instead seemed a bit hypocritical.

  "Young man, your future, I see no bounds, no one can see. Hope that one day when standing at the pinnacle of this world, don't forget there's a shadow like me who once conversed with you, once introduced..."

  The sound has gradually disappeared, watching the figure that is slowly fading away, becoming nothingness. The dark night silently bows its head, this is a tribute to a strong person, respect.

  Walked to where the figure disappeared, picked up the stone slab on the ground. Without even looking at it, just as I was about to put it in my chest pocket, I hesitated for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.

  "Huh? How did I end up here?"

  Just as Cang Ye was stunned by his skill, a voice came over and turned around to find that those people had gradually woken up.

  "Junior Brother Cang, you're here too? What's going on, how did you suddenly appear here. Wasn't I being hunted by the Wild Beast?"

  Shaking his head, he still didn't understand why he was here. Just then, he saw Cang Ye smiling at him from afar, and only then did he open his mouth to ask.

  "Everything just now was an illusion. When we left the intact land, we came directly here. As for why I woke up...I really don't know."

  Cang Ye indeed didn't know, and the one who knew the reason was probably that black shadow who had disappeared. Apart from him, no one else should understand the reason behind it.

  Not long after, those who were still alive gradually came to.

  Those who escaped from the illusion, some wailed loudly, while others laughed heartily towards the sky. These were all expressions of survivors after a disaster. However, for those with deep emotions, seeing their companions die was also an endless sorrow.

  Looking at the people in front of him, looking at those dead fellow disciples, Cang Ye knew that they should not have died...

  "Liu Shidi, how come he still hasn't woken up? His breathing is stable, he should still be alive, but why hasn't he woken up yet!" Just then, a voice from the group of disciples drew everyone's attention over.

  He glanced at the direction of the transmission, and a mysterious smile appeared on Cang Ye's mouth. At this time, everyone's attention was focused on the "Liu Shidi" who was sitting cross-legged.

  Not much time had passed when Liu's eyebrows started to twitch slightly. Finally, with great difficulty, he opened his eyes.

  "Big brother, what's going on? How did I end up here?"

  Liu Shidi opened his eyes and saw so many people staring at him, he was startled. Then he asked in a timid tone.

  "Junior brother, it's all right. The past is already gone. Don't worry, what you've experienced were just illusions. Don't be afraid!" said the senior brother who had discovered that he wasn't dead earliest by his side.

  "Illusory realm? Senior brother, I haven't experienced any environment, just after leaving the inheritance land, I felt a wave of drowsiness coming, and when I woke up, I was here."

  Everyone looked at each other, and finally, a disciple of Pingtian Palace looked at the dazed Liu Shidi with some excitement and asked in a slightly trembling voice.

  "Junior brother, have you felt anything different about yourself?"

  "Is it different?" He pondered slightly, as if thinking hard about something. Suddenly, after a mournful cry, this Liu Shidi fainted again.

  After a long time, the younger brother finally slowly opened his eyes, but in the instant when his eyes were open, he revealed a terrifying light!

  Although the gaze was terrifying, the disciples of Pingtian who saw it fell into a state of frenzied excitement. Even Yue Wushang, the number one genius of Pingtian, appeared somewhat agitated at this moment.

  Looking at the expressions of these people, Qingxia disciple seemed to have understood something as well. For a moment, everyone's face sank slightly. Who would have thought that so many fellow disciples had died, and even among the younger generation of this generation of disciples in the sect, the strongest existence was sent out, but instead, it was robbed by an ordinary disciple of Pingtian! That kind of unwillingness is really hard to express.

  "Junior brother, it's good that we're alive. Not getting the inheritance can only be said to be our bad luck. Don't mind it too much." Xucen comforted Cangye who was standing on the side with a slightly gloomy expression.

  "It's nothing, senior brother, why would I mind?"

  Yes, why would Cang Ye mind? Compared to what he has gained, the legacy of a mere saint is nothing. Besides...

  "Liu Shidi, do you know how to leave this place?"

  Finally, someone in the crowd asked the key question. At this time, all eyes were focused on Liu Shidi.

  Maybe he felt a bit shy with so many people paying attention to him all at once. His eyes darted around for a moment before he finally spoke up and said

  "It seems like it is, in my mind, as if saying that as long as this space is broken through, I can easily return to the original world!"
