You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?-Chapter 846 - 226: Preparations II

...

Prince Mansion.

The Third Prince stood atop a towering structure, silently perceiving the winds swirling through heaven and earth, quietly gazing at the chains locking down Jingzhou.

Suddenly, a figure seated in a wheelchair appeared behind him.

"All these years, Third Brother has been watching from outside Jingzhou, yearning to leave, am I right?" the Second Prince softly spoke.

The Third Prince chuckled, not bothering to turn his head, he replied, "Second Brother knows I am the Great Free Heavenly Demon, naturally I abhor being imprisoned like this."

The Second Prince nodded gently, saying, "To you, indeed freedom is more precious than life."

"Second Brother might as well speak frankly," the Third Prince said casually, "I have already heard; Xiahou Shou plans to welcome the ancient ruler, the Human Clan might face extinction because of it, is it not so?"

"Indeed." The Second Prince nodded.

"Second Brother wants to ask for my help?" the Third Prince calmly asked, "Then you may have chosen the wrong person, I do not care whether the Human Clan perishes."

"Whether to help or not, it is your freedom."

The Second Prince said, "You indeed do not care if the Human Clan perishes, but you probably do not like how the Human Clan is today either? You decide for yourself, it's your freedom, but I think you will help, so I have come."

The Third Prince was silent for a moment, then turned to look at the Second Prince.

He had a somewhat peculiar expression in his eyes, silently gazing at the Second Prince for a long time before speaking, "Second Brother is indeed the strongest in the line of Spiritual Understanding, you truly understand me."

The Second Prince softly said, "The Free Spirit, though not as constrained by rules, acts freely according to their own heart, that is your heart."

The Third Prince didn't say much, he just said, "My strength is not much greater than that of a typical Divine Son, I fear I won't be of much use."

He had proven and transcended through two Heavenly Reversal Paths and condensed his Divine Heart, naturally stronger than the ordinary Divine Son.

Yet still far from being as strong as the Son of God, even less able to resist Xiahou Shou.

The Second Prince pondered for a while, then said, "Both Elder Brother and I believe, among the Princes and Princesses, besides Seventeenth Brother, it is you who holds the greatest potential, had it not been for your innate defect, maybe you would have been capable of grasping portions of the Ultimate Path."

"Defect?" the Third Prince raised a brow slightly.

"You were separated by the Buddha Ancestor with the method of Two Minds of Good and Evil."

The Second Prince explained, "Though through reincarnation and rebirth you completed the Divine Soul, the inner essence of a person is not limited to the Divine Soul alone, there are some more unique aspects, such as... Fate."

"The Buddha Ancestor lives purely for all beings, bound by extreme restraints, while you live purely freely, remarkably opposed, which is the defect."

The Second Prince sighed, "If you were one complete being, though the path is perilous, laden with hardships, you might have hopes of glimpsing parts of the Ultimate Path."

The Third Prince said lightly, "I understand what Second Brother means, but this is something unavoidable, I also detest those like the Buddha Ancestor bound in such ways."

He paused for a moment, then said, "Besides, the method of Two Minds of Good and Evil is not the Second Primordial Spirit Cultivation Method, once achieved, they stand completely separate, even unable to transfer memories, it is irreversible."

The Second Prince pondered for a moment, then said, "The Buddha Ancestor transcended proof using two Heavenly Reversal Paths, and you did the same, both paths starkly opposing like the absolute juxtaposition of Yin Yang Life Death, but if these four paths could be integrated, then perhaps you could truly grasp parts of the Ultimate Path?"

"Irreversible." the Third Prince shook his head.

"Not necessarily."

The Second Prince smiled, suddenly flipped his hand, revealing an extraordinary mercury round mirror in his hand, swirling subtly with light.

"This is a wondrous treasure named 'True Self.' acquired by Seventeenth Brother according to your situation, from the Dominator of Yanfu."

The Second Prince explained, "Even if the Second Primordial Spirit completely rebels to gain selfhood, with the help of this treasure they can reunite, if you are willing to restore as one with the Buddha Ancestor, fuse the Divine Soul, clash memories, perhaps you might achieve great breakthroughs."

"Restore as one?"

The Third Prince glanced over the mirror as if made of mercury, lifting a slight smile, saying, "I care not even for death, naturally I won't refuse, but..."

He smiled, "The Buddha Ancestor went to great lengths to separate me back then, would he be willing?"

The Second Prince gently shook his head, saying, "You should be the one who understands him best in this world, do you still not know if he is willing?"

Hearing this, the Third Prince was silent for a moment, then scoffed, "Indeed, who but him would descend into hell?"

"Since this is the case..." He reached out to take the mercury-like mirror, "I agree."

The Second Prince nodded slightly, then flipped his hand to produce a drop of extraordinary dew, saying, "This is a drop of Heavenly Craft Creation Dew, which can nurture a Lifebound Divine Artifact, as you and Buddha Ancestor restore as one, achieve breakthroughs, then use it to nurture your Lifebound Divine Artifact."

Should the Third Prince and Buddha Ancestor restore as one, fusing parts of the Ultimate Path, they would reach the Divine Son Level.

The Lifebound Divine Artifact can completely evolve into the Lifebound Sovereign Artifact!

Then, it could play a significant role.

...

Many days passed again.

Ancestor Hall.

In the deepest palace, the Main Hall Master dressed in a green shirt sat here in silence, bound by a chain.

"Main Hall Master."

The Second Prince appeared opposite the Main Hall Master.

"Second Prince." The Main Hall Master smiled, "I heard you've been preparing in recent days, even seeking the Third Prince and the Eldest Princess, I didn't expect you'd come to find me too, can I still be of importance?"

Under such circumstances, ordinary Proving Realm is simply unable to play a role.

Even the Divine Son Level is of little use, only the strength of the Divine Son Level holds meaning.

Among the Princes and Princesses, the Eldest Princess and Third Prince are more special, hence they are useful.

As for other Human Clan experts, they cannot be of use.

Even this Main Hall Master of the Ancestor Hall for tens of thousands of years is the same.

Divine Son Level strength, plus the Inheritance Divine Artifact of the Ancestor Hall, still quite strong, but in the present situation, it is not enough.

"Certainly useful."

The Second Prince nodded gently, saying, "The Inheritance Divine Artifact of the Ancestor Hall is linked to the fortunes of the Human Clan, although unlike the Eye of Heaven it cannot leverage the power of the Heavenly Dao, it can still communicate with the Heavenly Dao." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"But it cannot leave the Ancestor Hall." The Main Hall Master shook his head, "And the power of this Inheritance Divine Artifact is at most enough for me to defeat an ordinary Divine Son."

"In the past, that was indeed the case."

The Second Prince smiled, saying, "But your apprentice has brought a treasure from the Yanfu World, combined with the cooperation between me and the Crown Prince, it should allow the Heavenly Dao's power to be channeled through the Ancestor Hall's Inheritance Divine Artifact, extending beyond the realm of Great Yong, though it might not extend too far, it should suffice."

He paused, then added, "Besides, the Demon Clan has some detection methods specifically targeting the Human Clan, if we try to approach, we will likely be noticed."

The Main Hall Master understood the Second Prince's intention.

He was silent for a moment, then said, "I understand, I should have become part of the Demon Clan tens of thousands of years ago, but then it was my Master and the Human Emperor who saved me, so let it be me to undergo Demon Transformation."

The Second Prince sighed slightly, saying, "Among the Human Clan, those I trust are you and the Human Ancestor, if it were others undergoing Demon Transformation, I couldn't trust them."

Once transformed into a Demon Clan member, influenced by the inherent nature of the Demon Clan, coupled with the aura of Eternal Night, will naturally oppose the Human Clan.

Those who do not value the Human Clan highly will easily become antagonistic after Demon Transformation.

Those who already loathe the Human Clan will become staunch enemies.

Only relying purely on Dao Heart could possibly resist the inherent nature of the Demon Clan and the influence of Eternal Night.

The Main Hall Master laughed, saying, "It matters not, Mistress became a Twilight Demon Ancestor yet managed to hold back from acting against the Human Clan, I believe I can too."

"I trust you, of course." The Second Prince nodded slowly.

"What about my apprentice?" The Main Hall Master asked, "How is he now?"

The Second Prince was silent for a moment, then sighed softly, saying, "Rest assured, he has never disappointed you before, and now he is striving hard."
