Chapter 2389: The World Thousands of Years Ago

Was this a joke?! Wasn’t this the sas having a surveillance camera that followed him everywhere he went? They'd see everything Zu An did, even when he was passionate with his lovers...

Strong killing intent suddenly filled Zu An's eyes when he realized that.

The TScribe panicked a bit when he sensed the look in Zu An's eyes. He quickly explained, “Your distinguished self, please do not misunderstand! Even though I can hide and record events away from view, after being noticed by a powerful being, they will also sense my presence when I am near. It is not what your respected self is thinking!

“Really?” Zu An’s tone was still a bit dark.

“Of course it’s true!” The TScribe realized that he could end up in trouble if he didn’t explain clearly. “We TScribes record all kinds of things that happen in the world, but there are many worlds that are very special. For example, they might be extremely closed off and not permit anyone entering, or the world’s source may be special, not permitting any beings of flesh to enter. That is why we TScribes had no choice but to change our own morphology.” As he spoke, his entire body becintangible. “See? We are not physical entities, and only exist by borrowing sinvisible forces of the universe.”

“Invisible force?” Zu An was a bit puzzled.

“Explaining this is a bit complicated...” The TScribe thought to himself for a bit before saying, “If we want to continue existing, we need to fabricate a reasonable and fair character that can participate in this world. However, the issue with this is that someone particularly intelligent could realize that we should not exist. At that point, we would disappear.

“That is why we usually use an easier method, which is to take the place of someone who used to exist. That way, our existence becomes more harmonious with the world, just like when I impersonated the first miss’ subordinate.”

Salamay’s teeth ached as she listened.

Screw you!

Zu An thought to himself, No wonder his impersonation was so good and no one noticed anything strange.

But he suddenly realized something. “Doesn’t that mean you can replace whomever you want to?”

What if he ends up replacingor one of the women? No one would be able to tell at all.

He felt a chill when he realized that.

“It is naturally not that easy,” the TScribe said with a bitter smile. “As TScribes, our mission mandates us to impact world lines as little as possible, so that is why we cannot replace those with powerful destinies. Otherwise, the destinies would rebound and devour us instead, leading to our deaths.

“That is why we can only replace sordinary individuals. Of course, it would be best if they were ordinary people close to important figures, as that would make it easier for us to accomplish our goals.”

In a certain world, the soul of Salamay’s subordinate who had been mysteriously replaced thought, I have sdamn things to say about that!

When he heard that, Zu An felt at ease. He wanted to ask the TScribe for more of their secrets, but no matter how he asked, the other party didn’t give any more meaningful information. He only laughed insincerely in response, so Zu An could only let the matter rest at that.

He assigned speople from the Demon race to bring the others somewhere they could rest. At the stime, he ordered the Demon cultivators to monitor the monsters and the TScribe.

Salamay and Mojard were both seriously injured, and the True Demon elders had also been tormented badly by the Lifedeath Pill, so the Demon experts were already strong enough to oversee them.

As for the TScribe, he was too mysterious. Zu An didn’t have any high hopes that the Demon cultivator would be able to keep him in check.

...

Then, he arranged for Suolun Shi and Yun Yuqing to make an appearance. They summoned the women with the most outstanding talent among the Demon race and gathered their blood essence.

The blood sacrifice required a tremendous amount of blood essence power, which was why in the past, several saintesses with exceptional aptitude had needed to be sacrificed. However, if the number of participants was large enough and every woman only offered a bit of blood essence, the losses wouldn’t be too great.

Of course, that would lead to the blood being impure, but that wasn’t a problem for Zu An. Even Ji Xiaoxi had several ways of harmonizing bloodline power.

At first, Zu An offered sgenerous rewards in return, since even just a few drops of blood essence would lead to a great injury that would need several months to heal from. But when they heard that they could help the regent, the Demon race’s women were all eager to offer themselves up. They were even worried that they couldn't offer enough blood essence, and only hoped to be able to see the regent once from afar.

Their crazy and fanatical attitude made Suolun Shi and Yun Yuqing feel a powerful sense of danger. As such, they defended and counterattacked simultaneously, thus finally dispelling their fears of ‘overstepping of boundaries’.

Zu An gathered the women and discussed what they were going to do from then on. At the stime, he made all sorts of arrangements ahead of time.

...

By the next morning, they had gathered the blood essence of the Demon race women. Zu An’s party arrived in front of the Priest Temple.

When she saw Zu An recreate her blood sacrifice formation without any mistakes, Salamay couldn't help but feel admiration.

This man really is a talent and knows everything. Unfortunately, I have no chance left to obtain him.

Ahhhh!

She felt as if she was going to go mad from regret when she realized that.

Mojard, who had followed by her side all this time, could guess her thoughts. He patted her shoulder in consolation to comfort her, but he actually felt a mysterious bit of joy inside.

The first miss will eventually realize that even if everyone else betrays and leaves her, I will always remain at her side.

Zu An didn’t pay their plans any attention, as he was focused on extracting the power of the blood essence.

The Demon women's blood essence was stored in a small jade bottle. Zu An activated the formation, and streaks of blood-red light floated out from the jade bottle and appeared above them all to form a special diagram. The Nature Jade case at the very center seemed to have sensed something and began to vibrate with noise. The blood-red diagram in the air then cast itself onto the Nature Jade case, which slowly floated into the air. Rings of golden light appeared around it. Then, that golden light was released into the air one ring after another.

Everyone present was powerful in their own right. They quickly noticed that the space around them was starting to grow restless.

A while later, a burst of mist emanated from where the golden light had disappeared. Clouds of mist surged continuously.

The TScribe said happily, “The entrance to that world has been opened!”

Zu An sensed a familiar, yet unfamiliar feeling from behind the mist. Was that the Cultivation World from thousands of years ago?

He noticed that the mist wasn’t too stable, however. He said gravely, “This passage can't be maintained for too long and will disappear quickly. Everyone, get ready.” Then, he looked at the TScribe and said, “I’ll have to trouble your respected self to lead the way.”

The TScribe knew that Zu An still didn’t trust him completely, but didn’t seem to mind. With a chuckle, he was the first to jump into the mist.

When he sensed that there was nothing strange about the entrance, Zu An waved his sleeve, and a gentle force wrapped around everyone present. After that, he entered the portal with the precious case in hand.

Everyone felt the world around them blur. Once the mist cleared, they discovered that they were in a brand new world. Around them were trees that towered hundreds of meters into the air. Strange cries and roars cperiodically from the distance. Massive birds that blotted out the sun flew across the horizon.

When she sensed the rich natural ki around her, Pei Mianman couldn't help but becshocked. “Is this really our world from thousands of years ago?”

It was no wonder that she was amazed. The ki here was many times richer than their modern world. It was far richer than the present Cultivation World's, even after the Underworld was merged with it.
