438: Evolution of ambition

Instead, it involved something on a deeper level.

For example, luck!

When fortune smiles, heaven and earth lend their strength; when luck falters, even heroes are constrained.

Wang Dong’s rise must have been backed by some secret treasure, which in itself was a manifestation of luck.

Or perhaps it was a foregone conclusion that Wang Dong was destined to be unrivaled in this epoch.

Even if these people harbored dissatisfaction, they couldn't change it.

After a brief period of sighing, the Life Forbidden Zone chose silence immediately.

No one dared to harbor any further thoughts about the world.

In fact, they had already prepared for a protracted war with Wang Dong.

For ten thousand years, while Wang Dong reigned over the world, they obediently retreated into the Forbidden Zone.

Only when their Source of Life was insufficient would they consider going out to hunt, but if Wang Dong discovered them, it would likely lead to another dead end.

However, they had no way to resolve this.

At the same time.

Inside the Bronze Ancient Ship.

Bronze Divine Hall.

Wang Dong released the Divine Souls of three people from the treasure vase.

He had previously set a Seal, simultaneously stripping the three of their Soul Power.

This ensured they couldn't commit suicide and prevented them from escaping.

Now, it was finally time to use them.

As soon as the Lord of Reincarnation emerged, he roared at Wang Dong.

"Wang Dong, what do you intend to do to us? Why didn't you cut the weeds and dig up the roots?"

Considering their experiences in reaching this stage, cutting the weeds and digging up the roots was undoubtedly the best course of action.

After all, these ancient monsters who had lived for so long, who among them didn't possess some astonishing means?

Leaving them alive made it too easy for variables to arise; in fact, there was a high probability they could escape.

Given Wang Dong's usual style, it was impossible for him to do something so irrational.

Yet, the truth was that Wang Dong not only did it but also imprisoned all three of them in the treasure vase.

Now, he released them again.

Wang Dong spoke indifferently upon hearing this.

"You pose no danger to me. Even if you escaped, what could you do? Moreover, you cannot escape."

At these words, the three were enraged.

But they had no reason to refute him.

What Wang Dong said was the truth.

The three of them indeed could not threaten Wang Dong.

The strength Wang Dong now displayed was vastly different from theirs; it was no longer something they could catch up to by unleashing their full power.

It was a leap in the level of life and a fundamental difference.

Perhaps they would only have a glimmer of a chance to catch up if they had lived four inverse lives in the past.

Of course, that was all in the past.

They had long since severed a part of themselves, having stayed in the Life Forbidden Zone for too long, and the path to ascension had been blocked by their own hands.

It was no longer possible for them to make further progress.

Upon hearing this, they initially felt humiliated.

But after calming down, they also felt a sense of discouragement.

If they had known Wang Dong was such a Prodigy, they would never have done such a thing.

However, what was done was done, and regret was useless.

For them, the most curious thing at this moment was why Wang Dong kept them alive.

Was there some unknown secret, or did he intend to do something astonishing to them?

All three looked at Wang Dong.

Waiting for an answer.

And Wang Dong naturally had no intention of hiding anything.

He spoke softly at once.

"I want your Dao."

At these words, the Divine Bull Suppressing Prison Emperor immediately spoke.

"You wouldn't be trying to deduce the complete Netherworld Reincarnation using the Dao of us three, would you? Even the Emperor Zun couldn't achieve it; even if you want to, the possibility isn't very high, is it?"

Wang Dong's eyes grew cold.

An astonishing aura revived in this place.

He grabbed the Divine Bull Suppressing Prison Emperor, "Have you forgotten what I said before? What others cannot do does not mean I cannot."

"How can you old relics of the old era understand?"

"Just hand over your Dao and scriptures; I have my own reasons."

At these words, the Divine Bull Suppressing Prison Emperor and the other two felt somewhat humiliated.

But at the same time, they were somewhat alarmed.

Wang Dong's move was too astonishing.

He was actually attempting to re-evolve the Netherworld Reincarnation, and a complete Netherworld Reincarnation at that.

One must know that over countless ages, the current Netherworld had long ceased to be a complete Reincarnation.

A part of 'life' was missing from it.

It could only accommodate the deceased.

Allowing countless dead souls and heroic spirits to wander between the living and the Netherworld.

They relied on the Wheel of Reincarnation and the River Styx to maintain peace in the world.

It could be said to be the aggregation of the dark side of the world.

Logically speaking, one day the River Styx would be full, and the Wheel of Reincarnation would also be filled with Yin spirits.

They could only consume these things through means of battle.

However, compared to the number of deaths, this consumption rate was far from enough.

It could be said that over countless epochs, they had spent a lot of effort on this matter.

Although they achieved some results, it was only a temporary solution.

To completely solve this matter, they had to start from the Origin, just like Wang Dong.

Re-evolve the Netherworld Reincarnation to complete the path of 'life'.

But this was too difficult.

The three of them had tried it over their long years.

But ultimately, they failed.

However, even in the ancient Tian Zun Era, someone had attempted this.

At that time, the Lord of Heaven and Earth, who dominated all beings in the Three Realms, was the Emperor Zun.

Faced with such a matter, he naturally couldn't stand idly by.

He privately attempted to re-evolve the Netherworld Reincarnation.

The authority of the Netherworld Reincarnation at that time was far greater than it is now.

But the ultimate result was still failure.

The Netherworld Reincarnation was too broken, the authority of Reincarnation was lost, and the Path of Reincarnation was severed.

It was simply beyond human capability to complete.

The Emperor Zun also found it extremely thorny, and this matter was eventually abandoned.

Now, Wang Dong wanted to re-evolve it.

What gave him the right?

He wouldn't think that by mastering all three of their Dao, he could accomplish this, would he?

Ridiculous.

The three sneered inwardly, but their expressions showed no unusual changes.

If they could use such an unimportant matter to waste Wang Dong's time, it would be a good thing for them.

At least, it could prevent Wang Dong from further strengthening his cultivation.

Of course, this was not without its drawbacks.

If Wang Dong could truly achieve it, then as Wang Dong had said before, by constantly Reincarnating in the Netherworld Reincarnation, he could find a ritual that could perfectly lead him to the end of the cultivation path.

This would definitely be an astonishing feat.

Of course, the difficulty involved was no different from impossible for the three of them.

After a brief exchange of glances, the three unanimously reached an agreement.

"We can hand over our Dao and scriptures. As for how much you can comprehend and evolve, it's all up to you."

"However, if you can truly re-enact the Netherworld Reincarnation, you might be the first person in history."
