There was a pause, and then Lin Yan spoke: "What changes occurred later?"
"The Supreme Heavenly Emperor, after all, is the most powerful existence in this universe."
Young Master Zi Yuan said: "He realized that he was being eroded by the bizarre, and cut out a part of the yet uncorrupted 'true self'..."
"And thus became you?"
Lin Yan's gaze slightly sharpened.
"And after He cut out the 'true self,' He realized something."
Young Master Zi Yuan continued: "The first being in this world to achieve enlightenment, above the Heavenly Emperor... Even the Heavenly Emperor can excise the 'true self,' why can't the Taoist Ancestor?"
He looked at Lin Yan and said: "But the Taoist Ancestor's 'true self' has remained hidden without a trace until later..."
"Was it the Ancient Immortal who sacrificed himself to unify the Ten Thousand Realms and signed a contract with All Gods?"
Lin Yan's pupils contracted as he immediately spoke.
