I am Xiao Sheng

Chapter 1454 Doubt

Chapter 1434 Suspicion

"I understand. When that moment truly arrives, I will sacrifice myself to fulfill the true self. And as long as my soul remains, the true self can resurrect me. At most, I will only lose this essence, this fortune. As long as we live, there is hope. If we die, the true self still has the ability to resurrect us. But if the true self dies in battle, I fear he will not have the chance to be resurrected at all. The karma he carries is too heavy. That is the karma of the one destined for tribulation!" The Dark King sighed as he spoke. The true self, as the one destined for tribulation, bore all the pressure himself, never letting them share any of the burden!

"I'm relieved that you think that way. I was worried that you would be tricked and affected by the Heavenly Tribulation, falling into confusion and missing opportunities. After all, this is an immeasurable tribulation, and we've been tricked again." As for his own situation, Daoist Shifang wasn't really without a solution. As long as he made a firm decision to cut off the problematic origin and primordial spirit, or even directly abandon his own spatial Dao, everything could start over.

Not only did the Ten Directions Daoist know this, but the Dark King also knew it. However, they couldn't reveal it, fearing their unusual power might connect with Yang Mei and Shi Chen, making it easy for these two to detect. Their discussion of this operation had an even more important purpose: to test Yang Mei and Shi Chen's abilities to understand their thoughts and actions. If Yang Mei and Shi Chen could do this, they would definitely try to stop them, and even if they were hiding in the chaos, they might still have a chance to sense their presence!
"We can only say that we underestimated the abilities of the three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons, and even more so the treacherous and cunning Time Gods and Demons and Space Gods and Demons who once stood at the pinnacle. Their status and position were not only due to their strength, but also to their wisdom. Unfortunately, we were blinded by greed and influenced by the previous great battle. The power of the Chaos Gods and Demons far exceeded our imagination, especially those at the pinnacle. No one knew what trump cards they had. While we were scheming against them, we were also schemed against. If it weren't for my awakening this time and seeing through the hidden dangers of the Dao struggle, we would all be in dire straits."

"Alright, we all understand how dangerous all this is. I'll take my leave first, hoping the journey through Chaos will be peaceful. Otherwise, we'll face even greater trouble and more dangers. The immeasurable calamity is far more perilous than we imagine. With countless years of accumulation and scheming, every Chaos God and Demon possesses unimaginable methods. Once I'm out of danger, tell him my decision. I hope we can meet again someday!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Daoist Shifang did not hesitate. He immediately used the power of the Great Dao of Space to tear open the void and disappear from the Primordial World, heading directly towards Chaos. He dared not fly from the Primordial World to Chaos alone; the massive army of Chaos beasts was the greatest threat. A slight mistake could result in his death and annihilation. This was why Daoist Shifang chose to go to Chaos himself, leaving the King of Darkness behind—at least in terms of self-preservation, he had a more flexible option!

"I wish you a safe journey, and I hope things won't turn out as we suspect." Sensing the fleeting spatial fluctuations, the Dark King sighed softly, a hint of worry in his eyes, for this journey through chaos held too many unknown dangers.

When the immeasurable eons had reached this stage, the King of Darkness understood that even the slightest carelessness could cost him his life. The immediate crisis was nothing compared to the hidden dangers lurking in the shadows. He could find a way to resolve the immediate crisis, but he was unlikely to even be aware of the hidden dangers.

Shaking his head, the Dark King cast aside his agitation and calmly muttered to himself, "I hope things don't turn out the worst, but it seems that's the case. The situation on my side is somewhat dangerous. The deaths of those chaotic beasts are beginning to emit a terrifying aura, as if their deaths have touched something even more terrifying. This is a change that has never occurred before!"

Watching the changes within the chaos, the Dark King's heart grew heavy once more. Why were these changes occurring? Was it due to a change in his own form, or had an ancient transformation triggered the ultimate trump card of these chaotic beasts? Where did this power come from? Was it the resentment of their dead, or was it preordained by their creator? Who was carrying out such a sinister and insane scheme? What secrets lay hidden behind this chaos?

Although the Dark King wanted to warn his true self, he swallowed his words. He dared not act rashly. Even if he sensed danger, his true self, who was in the midst of a great battle, probably had no mind to pay attention to anything else. If he rashly offered a warning, it would not only be ineffective but might even harm him!

Distraction during a major battle is a major taboo, especially since Xiao Sheng's ancient power in the battle is constantly increasing. After the power of his bloodline imprint was activated, it was as if he had inexhaustible power. He didn't need to worry about the consumption of his own source at all. Every strike was a full-force attack, and he completely unleashed a wild and unrestrained momentum. Gradually, he turned the tide and gained the upper hand, forcing Xiao Sheng to retreat to defense. He no longer had much ability to slaughter those chaotic beasts.

Clearly, the death of that chaotic beast army would release a terrifying aura that would put Xiao Sheng at a disadvantage. So why did Heng Gu attack Xiao Sheng so frantically, unleashing such a powerful and sweeping attack to stop Xiao Sheng's massacre? Could there be some secret behind this, or perhaps he didn't want to see that mysterious power descend?
Despite his many doubts, the Dark King was helpless. After all, he couldn't find anyone to ask. In the entire primordial world, apart from the Chaos Beast Kings who evolved into Primordial Golden Immortals, perhaps no one else knew this secret. Even the three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons and Pangu probably wouldn't know. This might be a secret unique to the Chaos Beasts!

"You want to stop me from hunting these guys? What are you afraid of? Are you worried about your own power being weakened, or are you worried that the wisp of mysterious aura will bring danger?" Although he was already at a disadvantage, Xiao Sheng still saw Heng Gu's changes and sensed the changes in the chaotic beasts after their deaths. "Xiao Sheng, stop these meaningless probes. You should know that no matter how eloquently you speak, you won't get any information from me. This battle is a fight to the death; neither of us has a way out. You don't want to devour my origin, but I want to devour yours. I want to go further." Heng Gu responded disdainfully to Xiao Sheng, his attack continuing to erupt. With a single punch, the chaotic void trembled, as if this punch would destroy the chaos itself. It must be admitted that after regaining his senses and unleashing his potential, this guy had gradually grasped a trace of the power of termination. This was not only the power he had comprehended from Xiao Sheng, but also due to his own origins; after all, the instinct of chaotic beasts is destruction!

"Alright, then let's have a battle to the death! Open! The rules of life descend, boundless vitality, open the domain of life!" With a deep shout, Xiao Sheng disregarded his own consumption, summoning the rules of the Great Dao of Life, activating his own life divine power, and opening the domain of life. As soon as the domain appeared, Xiao Sheng's understanding of the Great Dao of Life was stimulated. Although he did not transform into a black hole, the power of life devouring was triggered, frantically absorbing the vitality of all living beings around him, frantically replenishing his own depleted essence.

"What a fine domain of life! It seems your understanding of the Great Dao of Life is far superior to mine. Unfortunately, it's impossible for you to devour my life force. Life descends, life force locked, lock!" Heng Gu didn't dare hesitate. With a deep shout, he activated the power of his own Great Dao of Life rules, unleashing his divine power to lock his own life force. He also spread this divine power to the army of chaotic beasts. This was the power of bloodline imprint, capable of locking in one's life force without the need for a domain!
"Indeed, our paths are opposite, or rather, our insights can be combined. Is this a supernatural power you possess, or your understanding of the Great Dao of Life?" Upon seeing that his power in the realm of life was restricted, Xiao Sheng was not surprised, but calmly asked Heng Gu.

"Whatever you think is what you want to say, I won't tell you. If you have the mind to talk to me about these things, you might as well unleash all your power and fight me. What you're doing is disrespectful to me!" Heng Gu roared fiercely at Xiao Sheng. Even though he clearly had the upper hand, Xiao Sheng was still in such a good mood to talk to him about these things, which made him suspect that Xiao Sheng was still hiding his true strength and hadn't unleashed his full power!

It wasn't just Heng Gu who had this thought; those who were paying attention to this battle also had the same idea. They had all already lent a helping hand to Heng Gu, but Xiao Sheng was still not in dire straits, and even had the mood to communicate with Heng Gu. This made them all frown, and their hearts were extremely heavy.

"Everyone, what should we do now? Henggu clearly doesn't intend to accept our goodwill and is unwilling to let the army of chaotic beasts connected to him by blood suffer heavy casualties. Moreover, Xiao Sheng is still hiding his power!"

"What do you mean, what to do? Do you think we can still make a move under these circumstances? Do you think we're the only ones watching this battle? The three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons, and even Pangu, are all watching everything on the battlefield. We succeeded before because they didn't expect us to help Henggu, catching them off guard. If we make another move, we'll directly expose our coordinates. You want to die, but we don't."

"That's right, it's better to stay still than to act. We have already done everything we could for Henggu. It was his own fault for not accepting our goodwill and for not wanting to summon that ultimate power. So if he dies and his soul dissipates, it is his own doing and has nothing to do with us. We have done everything we could! If he doesn't want to die, he will use that ultimate power and make a choice!"

As expected, the army of chaotic beasts had a problem, a serious one. However, this secret was unique to these chaotic beast kings, and for them, it was their trump card. But even this trump card had its drawbacks; otherwise, these guys wouldn't be so concerned!
"Alright, since no one is making a move, let's just observe from the shadows and stop having any ulterior motives. Don't treat everyone like fools and try to use others to do your dirty work. Such petty tricks are beneath us and won't work." Sure enough, these Chaos Beast Kings who had evolved into Primordial Golden Immortals were also calculating against each other; they weren't a united front. However, what secrets they held remained a mystery, as everything seemed rather unusual.

"Hmph!" A deep snort rang out. The guy who had his little scheme exposed was a little unhappy, but he didn't dare to make any move. They could still communicate, but it was impossible to expect this guy to be provoked and retaliate. He wasn't stupid and naturally understood the sinister intentions of the guy who exposed him!

Everyone was scheming against each other, just using different methods and making different choices. What right did this bastard have to talk about himself like that? Of course, it wasn't just one or two Grand Luo Golden Immortals who felt this way; there were many, because the conversation between these two directly disrupted many people's plans, naturally earning them resentment!
No one felt they were at fault; they all blamed others, making the two people conversing their common enemy. Unfortunately, these individuals were all extremely cautious, using the power of chaotic beast instincts rather than their own true nature in their communication. Therefore, no one knew their identities, and consequently, no one knew who was sabotaging their plans.

They harbored hostility towards their fellow kings of chaotic beasts. Their past peace was suppressed by rules that prevented them from attacking each other. However, with the arrival of the immeasurable calamity, these rules had vanished, allowing them to attack each other freely. Therefore, they were now antagonistic. However, until the danger posed by the three thousand chaotic gods and demons was resolved, they would not easily attack each other unless they were absolutely certain they could eliminate the other and devour their essence.
