Chapter 619: Chapter 371: Dojo Revelation! Saint Master Falls!

Lin Yan, in a daze, finally understood.

From the Saint Master’s first words to this moment, he seems more and more like an old man.

At first, he referred to himself as "this seat."

Later, he called himself "the old man."

Now, he refers to himself as "I."

Initially, Lin Yan felt that as they conversed, the relationship between the two seemed increasingly close.

But now it seems, it’s simply because the Saint Master is getting weaker.

This contemporary Saint Master wishes to meet the Master of All Generations in the most dignified manner possible!

However, he is gradually unable to maintain the majesty of the Saint Master, and further on, he cannot even maintain the dignity of an elder.

Until now, he is completely lying on the sickbed, about to take his last breath.

"That scum consumed my Primordial Spirit."

The old man muttered: "After I recovered, my control over the Holy Land surpassed that of the previous Saint Master. If it weren’t for those three spiritual locks, it might not have come to this..."

"No, without those three locks, I would never be able to recover from my injuries."

"But recovering from injuries requires these three locks."

"These three locks prevent me from unleashing my true power."

"So, that arrow back then... was it to put these three locks on me?"

"With the locks on, one can surpass the previous Saint Master and further control the Holy Land."

"But with the locks on, one cannot demonstrate their due skills."

A hint of confusion was in the old man’s eyes, and he murmured: "Has that scum grown this powerful already?"

Listening to his ramblings, Lin Yan felt utmost heaviness in his heart.

Suddenly, the old man reached out, grabbed Lin Yan’s hand, and said in a trembling voice: "Be careful of him, you must be careful... When you touch the Sky Dome, he will come, he certainly will come..."

Lin Yan was about to speak.

But then he saw the old man release his hand and stagger forward, muttering: "That scum has long since not only used the top beings of the world as Great Medicine for prolonging life..."

"What he wants to consume is not the beings of the world, but the opportunity for ascension!"

"If it weren’t in this era, perhaps he would have already broken through the boundary of ascension..."

The old man paused and said, trembling: "He isn’t consuming me, he’s consuming the Dao Rhythm of this Holy Land..."

Lin Yan hurriedly followed him.

The old man continued forward, whispering: "Throughout all generations, we are united with the Holy Land; prosperities and losses are shared."

"Back then, I was struck by that arrow, breaking three ribs, so the three lineage heads had their essence intentions shattered, and they lost control."

"I had no choice but to kill them, and also the tainted elders and disciples under those three heads..."

Listening to these words, Lin Yan remained silent.

He recalled the news he learned in High Willow City.

At that time, he had speculated that perhaps those three lineage heads were the true culprits in the attack on the Saint Master.

But later, he vaguely guessed the truth of the matter.

Still, hearing it from the Saint Master’s mouth left a certain inexpressible sorrow in his heart.

The three lineage heads and their followers were ultimately a pitiful group.

"Whether it be the Holy Land, the Blessed Land, or even large Pure Lands..."

The old man quietly said: "When one fully masters the dojo, they’ve reached the peak."

He looked at Lin Yan and continued: "Yet this is not one’s own Inner Realm; as years pass, and one’s understanding of the dojo deepens, one might lose themselves."

"If one can walk out from being lost, they can comprehend this piece of heaven and earth, thereby obtaining a trace of spirituality. But I think it should be called Dao Rhythm."

"In legends, one who attains the Dao can become immortal, while those who enter the Dao can achieve ascension."

"I was struck by an arrow, and my Primordial Spirit became mixed, scattering ’good thoughts’, ’Evil Thought’, and the notion of ’self.’"

"The three locks respectively bind the good, the evil, and the self... What remains is the ’Saint Master’ refined by the Supreme Profound Dao to Saint!"

"Without good thoughts, without Evil Thoughts, without one’s own intention, the Saint Master can be indifferent and selfless."

"That scum, what he wants to consume, is the Saint Master possessing Dao Rhythm."

The old man panted: "What he truly wants to consume is purely the Dao Rhythm!"

The voice fell, the old man spread his hands, looking around, he said: "He doesn’t have enough skill, he is not the True God after all, so he cannot peel away and take only Dao Rhythm without consuming the Saint Master as well... Yet when he swallows, he also consumes good thoughts and Evil Thoughts."

Lin Yan followed beside him, speechless.

He could perceive that the old man’s condition was extremely poor.

But he couldn’t break the old man’s current state.

He understood, once he broke the old man’s last thoughts, the old man would vanish like smoke.

"If it were in the past, this scum’s accomplishments weren’t high enough, and he would likely consume me entirely, leaving not a trace."

"But now, he can separate my ’notion of self’ to avoid being affected by my own intentions."

"He found a way to ’separate,’ and soon... very soon he will be able to, just consume Dao Rhythm without consuming the Primordial Spirit..."

"At that time, even in this era, as long as he possesses enough Dao Rhythm, he can press part of his way into the threshold of being a ’True God.’

The old man spoke as such.

Lin Yan listened silently.

The old man seemed worried that Lin Yan didn’t quite understand, he continued: "The so-called new gods of future generations are fundamentally pseudo-gods, only the Ancient Old Gods are the True Gods of the world!"

"That scum, he long surpassed the ’pseudo-gods’... He even disdains consuming those ’pseudo-gods.’
