In the silent forest, nothing happened.
"At least... the Master of Black Blood didn't come down and annihilate me directly, which is the best possible outcome."
"But I am even more certain that when I ascend, He will definitely appear... and devour me."
"Even now, am I also being watched by Him, or should I say... being cooked to some extent?"
Zhong Shenxiu looked at his arm, the black veins, though faint, were startling.
Even though he had transformed into divine dark power within him, he could not expel it.
"If I go by Yan Han's evaluation, my Primordial Pill was also made through external forces; my foundation is mixed, and my future achievements will be limited, right?"
Zhong Shenxiu gave a bitter smile, then took a deep breath, "But it doesn't matter, that blind sage even said I couldn't break through the Primordial Pill!"
"Is this... reality? It seems I've fallen quite thoroughly."
He stood up, looked around, and couldn't help but sigh.
