Subsequently, that figure continued to wander through the spiritual veins of various places, even touching the spiritual veins of the North and South Poles.
As memories gradually unfolded, Lin Qian slowly came to understand what this "Holy Lord" was plotting.
Until the strange sight of two suns and two moons appeared in the sky in the memory, the Holy Lord looked at the celestial phenomenon and chose to take action.
When the Western spiritual veins were refined into a vast power of heaven and earth, and the array set up by the Holy Lord drew upon this power, not only were the Western spiritual veins refined and sacrificed, but the North and South Pole spiritual veins were also damaged. The spiritual veins in other areas were also affected by the vast power of heaven and earth and lost their spiritual energy!
Cultivators and powerful figures from all over the world appeared to stabilize the spiritual veins, but the spiritual energy that had already been stirred up was extremely violent and could not be suppressed by human power. Terrifying cracks in the sky were pushed out by the powerful spiritual energy.
Even a tiny crack, as fine as a hair, drew the world that was approaching. The two worlds, sharing the same origin, naturally had an attraction. They should have naturally drawn closer and slowly merged, but this tiny crack accelerated the process.
The purpose of the Western Holy Lord is to bring another world closer and then integrate into it, so that he can become the Heavenly Dao of that other world!
Victory was within reach, the opportunity had been seized, and the Western Holy Lord was thrilled and excited. Amidst the upheaval of heaven and earth, an unparalleled consciousness awakened. Enraged, it unleashed a thunderbolt, and a destructive force swept across the heavens and earth, instantly killing countless lives.
This is truly the awakening of the Heavenly Dao!
The power of Heaven is based on the harmony of rules and has no consciousness. However, once a crisis is triggered in the world, it will attract the 'attention' of Heaven.
Thunder struck, instantly shattering the raging spiritual power. At that moment, the culprit who caused everything—the Western Holy Lord—actually threw himself into the cracks created by the spiritual power, thus avoiding annihilation!
The memory abruptly shattered, and Lin Qian instantly regained his senses.
The memory was long, but in reality, Lin Qian only stared blankly for less than three minutes, so the leopard didn't notice anything amiss.
"You've... finished reading..."
A hoarse whisper came, and Lin Qian, looking at the skeleton in front of him, suddenly realized, "Awooo!" The Western Holy Lord!
A faint black flame flew back into the skull's eye socket, "Holy Lord... distant memories..."
"Huh!?" What do you want to do?
Having confirmed the other party's identity, Lin Qian instantly became extremely vigilant. This was a ruthless person who was willing to sacrifice the entire West for his own transcendence, and even plotted to drag the entire world into the game! He must not be underestimated!
If it weren't for the Western Holy Lord causing a catastrophe and enraging the Heavenly Dao, the Tiger Saints wouldn't have suffered such heavy losses, leaving only a handful of their kind. Powerful saints even sacrificed their bodies to create a secret realm for hiding, and could only hide in the core of the secret realm to sleep and eke out a living.
The aftermath of this catastrophe was extremely severe. Even though countless cultivators sacrificed themselves to seal the spiritual veins of heaven and earth for their own restoration, the recovery of these spiritual veins was still incredibly slow. The Western spiritual veins, in particular, have not yet fully recovered!
And the culprit behind all of this is the skull before us! The Holy Lord of the West!
"I failed..."
Just as Lin Qian was in shock, the skeleton suddenly spoke.
"To merge with the Dao with the body of a living being... is wrong... The Dao of Heaven is vast, beyond the reach of the power of living beings... I thought that by splitting this world apart, I could gain a sliver of hope... but instead I ended up losing all my cultivation..."
Lin Qian ignored the skeleton's sentiments, but became somewhat angry after listening to them. How could such a being, who caused a catastrophe for his own transcendence and selfish desires, be called a Holy Lord?
The Western Holy Lord could see Lin Qian's dissatisfaction with him. Any living being would find it difficult to have a good impression of him after knowing these things, and he knew that.
"Whoosh—" Suddenly, a dark cloud of mist landed in front of Lin Qian and instantly turned into a piece of black cloth.
Lin Qian looked down and saw... a map?
"This world is vast, devoid of spirit yet bound by limit... The two worlds are united, the abode of Heaven... Holding this will make things easier..."
After saying this, the eerie flames in the skull's eyes dissipated, and the skull's figure fell silent again, as if nothing had ever happened.
Lin Qian glanced at the skeletal figure with a puzzled look. Although it was confused, it only memorized the map and did not take it away. It did not know what the other party was planning. It was always better to be careful. After all, a powerhouse at the level of the Holy Lord had extraordinary methods that it could not guard against.
Lin Qian quickly left with the leopard, which had no objections; it had wanted to leave for a long time.
Above the boulder, black mist still floated and swirled, and the skeletal figure stood silently on it, motionless.
