Chapter 2975: Chapter 2973: It's actually you, Ball Sky Path!
Perhaps sometimes, the most dangerous place is actually the safest — under the principle of "darkness beneath the light."
However, when facing Senior White, this principle is certainly inapplicable.
If one is related to Senior White, and moreover stands in opposition to him... then the most dangerous place truly becomes the most perilous, devoid of any sense of security.
"It's the Dream Realm, hidden right here," Song Shuhang conveyed the clue to Daozi.
At the same time, a thought emerged in his heart.
Previously, Senior White was in a hurry to perfect the 'God Creation Plan,' forming the 'World Tree' in the Dream Realm and taking control of the Dream Realm's sector lord authority... could it be because Senior White was instinctively preparing for this scenario?
At the end of last year, it was the only time since Song Shuhang had met Senior White that he noticed Senior White urgently wanted to accomplish something.
At that time, Senior White's pace of life suddenly became hurried, as if summer vacation was about to end and homework was due soon.
It must be right!
The urgency of Senior White's 'God Creation Plan,' with the timing set just before this critical moment, must mean that Senior White was instinctively preparing for this event and incidentally suppressing the entity pulling the strings.
Perhaps when 'Daozi' directly confronts the mastermind later, Senior White's arrangements in the Dream Realm could also come into play!
This wave is steady —
This is Senior White's home ground, and he stands on his side. There's no reason to lose!
["Go on, Senior Daozi!"] Song Shuhang was brimming with boldness, as though he had already seen victory.
Daozi's demeanor, influenced by the 'Heavenly Will' and thus calmed, seemed at this moment to be affected by Song Shuhang's spirit, stirring a sense of valor.
["Let's see who you really are,"] Daozi said solemnly.
In the state where the Heavenly Dao blocks the Heavenly Mechanism of the Myriad Realms, even one's 'Crisis Intuition' can be affected.
Daozi exercised the Heavenly Dao Authority, and the intent of the Heavenly Dao descended directly to a coordinate in the Dream Realm.
That location was a connected area between the Dream Realm and the 'Chaos Heavenly World.'
The Chaos Heavenly World is one of the myriad realms' planes and is a rare world still retaining many ancient ruins from ancient times.
And that mastermind behind the scenes was, at this moment, residing within an interspatial pocket where the Dream Realm and the Chaos Heavenly World intersect.
The interspatial pocket belongs to the range of the Dream Realm, with a separate world within.
Daozi's 'Will of the Heavenly Dao' broke directly into this pocket.
["There's a protective barrier with an effect similar to the 'small black room.'"] During the incursion, Daozi's intent perceived that special kind of barrier.
"Dissipate," the intent of Daozi commanded.
As soon as these words were spoken, the barrier simulating the effects of the 'small black room' was directly erased.
At the same time, the camouflaged mastermind hidden in the interspatial layer also became aware of Daozi's arrival — in fact, as soon as Daozi began to eliminate the stellar viruses in the myriad practitioners in the universe, the mastermind was already prepared.
It just didn't expect Daozi to find it so quickly!
Daozi's intent entered this 'interspatial world,' surveying the surroundings — his intent was the vanguard, and at the same time, Daozi's 'Body of Eternity' was also ready, prepared to step into the main world at any moment.
The vision of Song Shuhang's dreamland skill attached itself to Daozi's intent, allowing him to see the interspatial world.
It was a world akin to a desert.
In this world, aside from small mounds of earth scattered about, there was nothing else.
Upon closer inspection, it could be seen that those black mounds were actually comprised of particles resembling 'Black Iron Sand,' piled up on top of one another.
Daozi's intent focused his gaze.
Each and every one of those small mounds of dark earth were composed of 'pseudo-eternal parts'.
At the core of each little mound, there was a grain of genuine 'Immortal Iron Sand'—objects that carry the aura of eternity, which not even the Heavenly Dao Authority could erase.
Daozi's gaze finally settled on the center of the interspatial pocket.
There, a Dark Sun was slowly rising.
It was the target that Song Shuhang and Daozi were searching for.
The Dark Sun appeared insubstantial, more like an illusion—an entity with a state similar to the 'Void Sun Guardians' outside.
And within the core of this Dark Sun, the scent of immortal information was similarly wafting out.
When confronted with Daozi's unyielding intent, the Dark Sun on the opposite side showed no signs of fear.
It calmly 'gazed' back at Daozi's intent, standing opposite Daozi with an attitude of equality.
Daozi's intent let out a silent sigh—indeed, the other party possessed an 'eternity' that Daozi least wanted to encounter.
[Apart from the aura of eternity... it bears the scent of the 'ruler of the Netherworld.'] Song Shuhang, who was delving into the dreamland skill, noticed this fact.
The Dark Sun bore a scent belonging to the Netherworld's ruler.
A scent too familiar to Song Shuhang.
After all, he might be the creature with the best relationship to the 'ruler of the Netherworld' throughout ancient and modern times among the myriad practitioners in the universe. He was also the man who had come into contact with the 'ruler of the Netherworld' the most.
Even Daozi, the 8.5 Wielder of the Will, did not understand the ruler of the Netherworld as clearly as Song Shuhang did—after all, Daozi hadn't condensed his own 'ruler of the Netherworld'.
While Song Shuhang, he had a manifestation, 'Dark Song.'
Therefore, Song Shuhang detected the presence of the 'ruler of the Netherworld' on the other party before 'Daozi' did.
[Ruler of the Netherworld? As expected, it involves eternity and also the ruler of the Netherworld... This guy is surely a past incarnation of the Heavenly Way.] Daozi responded.
But which incarnation of the Heavenly Way is the opponent?
[The liquefied metal ball represents the Eighth, above that is Wielder of the Will White, above him is the Immortal Daoist Virtue... and then I'm unclear about the Fifth and Fourth. The Third is Heavenly Dao Goudan's father, and the Second is Heavenly Dao's Three Eyes, with no information remaining on the First. If not for Senior Three Eyes being clear about being the Second, maybe even the very concept of a First Heavenly Dao would have been forgotten.] Song Shuhang replied.
Does that mean this Dark Sun Opposite us is either the Fifth or the Fourth Heavenly Dao?
The chance that it is the First Heavenly Dao is very slim since it seems there is no corresponding 'ruler of the Netherworld.'
But we can't rule out the contingency plans of other Heavenly Daos—perhaps one of them, like Wielder of the Will White, once severed a part of his Netherworld's ruler flesh for research, leaving behind this Dark Sun as his backup?
The three-eyed young senior corresponding to the Heavenly Dao's Three Eyes doesn't seem to be someone benevolent. The three-eyed young senior is deeply cautious about his own Heavenly Dao.
[One of the Fifth or Fourth Heavenly Daos?] Daozi's intent calmly faced the other: [I'm about to pull over my fleshly body.]
In face of eternity, he had to bring over his Immortal Body.
Mere 'intuitive manifestation' was insufficient to deal with the opponent.
With a thought, the space behind Daozi's intent waved slightly.
Then, Daozi's Immortal Body quietly emerged.
An aura of Indestructible settled into the air.
The moment the Heavenly Dao Body appeared, all 'undying components' throughout the interspatial pocket scattered!
"You... are not the Ninth Wielder of the Will... Are you Ball Heavenly Dao?" At this moment, the Dark Sun opposite suddenly spoke with a tone of surprise.
