“Kid, I can feel all the commotion outside.”
Earth Fire Ancestor opened his eyes, a glimmer of appreciation flashing in his golden, flame-like pupils. “One sword kills three enemies, not bad, not bad.”
David sat cross-legged before his ancestor: “Those three deputy hall masters are nothing. Even if the Evil Path hall master comes in person, I still have a chance to fight.”
His tone was calm, but conveyed absolute confidence.
Earth Fire Ancestor shook his head: “It’s good that young people are confident, but we must not underestimate the Evil Path Palace.”
He paused, his expression turning serious: “Do you think eliminating the three vice hall masters has significantly damaged the Evil Path Hall? You’re too naive.”
David frowned slightly: “What does Ancestor mean?”
“The Evil Path Palace’s true horror lies not in how many peak level nine Heavenly Immortals it has.”
Earth Fire Ancestor slowly said, “The reason is that they control the supreme treasure of the Reincarnation Gate.”
“Reincarnation Gate?” This was the first time David heard this name.
“That is the gate to the land of reincarnation.”
Earth Fire Ancestor spoke in a deep voice, “According to legend, the Land of Reincarnation is the final destination of all things after death, and the souls of all living beings will eventually be reincarnated again. And the Gate of Reincarnation can forcibly open the path to the Land of Reincarnation.”
David was surprised: “This thing can open the Reincarnation Realm? Doesn’t that mean it can resurrect the dead?”
“In a sense, yes.”
Earth Fire Ancestor nodded, “But it will come at a huge price. And the person who is resurrected may not be the same person as before.”
He looked at David with deep eyes: “Do you know why the Evil Path Hall has been slaughtering living beings and collecting souls everywhere for these years?”
Some clues flashed through David’s mind, and his expression changed slightly: “Did they use the souls of the dead to maintain the Gate of Reincarnation?”
“Good.”
Earth Fire Ancestor sneered, “For every 100,000 souls lost, the Gate of Reincarnation can be opened once, summoning back the dead from the Reincarnation Realm. The person summoned back will become a puppet of the Gate of Reincarnation, controlled by it for all eternity.”
“So……”
David said in a deep voice, “Those three deputy hall masters, could they have been dead from the start? Resurrected by the Evil Path Hall through the Gate of Reincarnation?”
“Very likely.”
Earth Fire Ancestor nodded, “That’s why the powerful figures of the Evil Path Hall seem endless. You eliminated their three vice hall masters today, and as long as Zhan E is willing to pay the price, they can be resurrected through the Reincarnation Gate in a very short time.”
David gasped.
If so, then the Evil Path Palace was practically invincible!
The most terrifying enemy is the enemy that cannot be killed.
“And……”
Earth Fire Ancestor’s voice became increasingly serious, “I suspect that the Evil Path Palace itself is just a puppet.”
“What?” David’s pupils narrowed sharply.
“The world that the Gate of Reincarnation leads to is said to be inhabited by some ancient and mighty beings.”
Earth Fire Ancestor slowly said, “They may have died, or they may exist in another form. But they don’t want to stay in the cycle of reincarnation forever, so they need puppets, they need someone to collect the souls of the dead for them, to maintain the gate of reincarnation, and to maintain their existence.”
“The Hall of Evil is most likely a puppet of these creatures. And Zhan E is just a slightly more advanced tool.”
David was silent.
The news was very surprising, far exceeding his expectations.
He initially thought that the Evil Path Hall was just a powerful evil organization.
Unexpectedly, such an astonishing secret was hidden behind it.
