On the other side, as soon as Young Master Wang arrived in the main hall, he saw that the ferocious beast had long lost its previous composure and calmness.
Although he remained seated atop the statue, his brow was furrowed, and he kept muttering something to himself, his face somewhat distorted.
The ferocious beast remained hidden in the main hall, even though the roof was in ruins and the interior was damp from the rain.
But the drizzle that had an absolute suppressive effect on the demon king either didn't touch him or had no effect on him. In any case, apart from looking a little solemn, there were no other obvious injuries on this guy.
Wang Zheng suspected it was the latter; the rain probably had no effect on this guy.
After all, although this powerful figure's strength has declined significantly, and according to him, he has not fully recovered, if he could be killed with such meager abilities, then he would not deserve to be called an ancient divine beast.
As for the demon kings who had long since disappeared from the empty hall, Wang Zheng didn't even need to think about it; they must have been swallowed whole by this ferocious beast, leaving not even bones behind.
Before Wang Zheng could even speak, the ferocious beast, which had been meditating in place, seemed to sense his presence and instantly became energetic, transforming into a beam of red light and entering Wang Zheng's body.
The speed was so fast that Young Master Wang had no time to react. He could only watch helplessly as the ferocious beast merged with him and disappeared completely.
"You...how...can you just let it go..."
Faced with this situation, Wang Zheng was helpless and could only shake his head, hoping that this guy would settle down and become a backup plan in the future.
However, even though that's what they say, even though the ferocious beast has returned and the clone's ability has been dispelled, the data panel inside Wang Zheng's body still hasn't appeared.
Upon noticing this unusual phenomenon, Wang Zheng frowned and subconsciously asked:
"Now that the danger is over, can you explain to me what exactly happened here? You..."
Before Wang Zheng could finish speaking, he suddenly felt everything go black. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in the space of divine consciousness.
It was no different from when I entered during my previous cultivation sessions; it was still a desolate wasteland with no end in sight.
There was a black vortex above his head with a storage space slowly rotating, and the beast that had been lying down was originally behind him.
However, the exclusive position of that beast has now been taken by the humanoid King Zheng.
Dressed in a red robe with black patterns, he sat cross-legged in front of Young Master Wang, his beastly eyes gleaming with golden light as he stared intently at him.
At this moment, Wang Zheng suddenly realized that he seemed to be able to multitask. Unlike entering the spiritual space through visualization, now that his body could move normally, he was not affected at all, nor was it hindered from communicating with the ferocious beast.
"Tsk tsk tsk, what does this mean? The system has become a personal old man?"
Wang Zheng's inner complaints had barely begun to surface when the ferocious beast launched into a barrage of sarcastic remarks, though the underlying worry was impossible to conceal.
Although Wang Zheng knew that this special treatment was likely not for him alone...
"Hey, how impressive! You killed so many demon kings and extraordinary beings all by yourself. Do you think you're the best in the world?"
Why don't you go and arm wrestle with that stinky bald monk?
"You ignorant fool, do you know how dangerous that was? If those Western Buddhist Buddha and that old Taoist priest had found you, not even my true form could have saved you!"
Although Wang Zheng had many guesses in his mind, he was even more certain now that the old monster had answered them.
However, he wanted to extract more information, so he pretended to be nonchalant and replied:
"What's there to be afraid of? Nothing happened. Besides, the spring rain even helped me restore my spiritual energy."
Hearing that Wang Zheng showed no sense of crisis whatsoever, even the usually confident beast became anxious.
"You know nothing! You're not even from this world. If you... never mind, if you want to die, I can't help it, and it's none of my business. But don't drag me into this!"
If you continue to be so ungrateful, I'd rather kill you first than let you get yourself killed, and then we'll all go our separate ways!
Although he could tell from the beast's words that it was all bark and no bite, Wang Zheng, unable to gauge how much truth this guy was telling, quickly backed down and said ingratiatingly:
"Don't be angry, boss... Next time, just tell me what you need. How am I supposed to know if you don't tell me? If you tell me, I'll do it! And what's with all that talk about Buddha and Taoist priests?"
Having spent so much time with Young Master Wang, this ferocious beast knew exactly what kind of person he was. Seeing that Wang Zheng's attitude had changed, it simply snorted coldly, not wanting to pay any attention to this reckless fellow.
However, upon further reflection, he felt he should reveal some information to prevent the kid from becoming arrogant and reckless, which could lead to his own demise.
He would be wronged then, as he has other tasks to complete right now.
However, given this big shot's personality, it was impossible to get him to speak politely. He retorted with a question:
"Don't you already know this history? Do I need to explain the sects of the primordial world to you?"
Having received the answer he expected, Wang Zheng was shocked, but he suppressed his emotions and muttered to himself:
"Is it really the Western religion from the primordial world? And that last spring rain was a trick of the Chan and Jie sects?"
So, does that mean the Peacock Demon King is really related to Kong Xuan? And why can these people directly interfere with Blue Star? Could it be that ancient powerful beings have simply survived to the present day?
"No, no..."
Wang Zheng had just reached a conclusion when he immediately rejected it himself.
"If they can really influence Blue Star so easily, how come the cultivators in the cave can't withstand the Heavenly Demon? There must be something else going on."
Who knows, these guys were probably sealed away by some mysterious powerful being in the primordial world, and only recently broke free, waiting to make a comeback?
Regardless, this Peacock Demon King is definitely a pawn in their scheme. So, it seems we'll have to go check out Hongsawadi later.
As soon as the idea came to mind, Wang Zheng wanted to refuse.
"No, no, I need to find a reason to explain things to Old Li and let him make the arrangements. I can't get involved in this mess myself unless it's absolutely necessary..."
As he pondered, Wang Zheng noticed that the beast's expression was gradually becoming impatient. He realized that this big shot probably only knew the other party's background, but didn't understand the specific reasons behind it.
So instead of dwelling on the issue, she changed the subject and seized the opportunity to press further:
"By the way, boss, what's the origin of the human in the painting on that Yingyu statue? Judging from the timeline of him sealing the Yingyu in the Yellow Sea, you must have had dealings with him, right? Tell me about it..."
