Everyone was surprised again. As people who had experienced many resets here, they clearly knew the process after each reset. Especially the Dao Ancestor. There would not be much change.
Even though the Dao Ancestor was a powerful and special mighty figure in the Beginner Martial Era, he could not retain his memories every time he reset. Therefore, after every reset, the Dao Ancestor would basically say the same thing to them.
There were only two situations where it made the Dao Ancestor’s words different.
One was that someone among them controlled the Dao. Then, the Dao Ancestor would guide them according to their situation to advance to the Heavenly Dao. The others could also understand some information related to the Heavenly Dao from this. After all, the Dao Ancestor’s guidance was public guidance that everyone could hear.
The other was that when newcomers arrived, the Dao Ancestor would guide and evaluate the situation of the newcomers. However, the Dao Ancestor would not feel that it was sudden because of another person. This was because in the Dao Ancestor’s understanding, he had nine disciples to begin with.
Even if not all nine disciples had arrived, and only six disciples came, the Dao Ancestor would also imagine it himself. He felt that the other three disciples did not come for some reason. There would not be any cognitive confusion because of the decrease in the number of people.
Unless the number of people from other eras exceeded nine, perhaps some changes would happen to the Dao Ancestor. However, such a situation had never happened before. After all, ever since the Beginner Martial Era was exiled from the Tianwu Continent to another space-time era, less than nine people had entered the Beginner Martial Era from other eras.
No one knew what would happen when more than nine people appeared. What was certain was that as long as there were less than nine people, there would not be any abnormality in the Dao Ancestor’s understanding.
But even so, there had never been a situation where the Dao Ancestor asked one of them to stay alone after instructing them. Especially after thinking of the Dao Ancestor’s evaluation of Xiao Shi, everyone was even more envious of this.
All along, they had many thoughts of obtaining greater opportunities from the Dao Ancestor. After all, the Dao Ancestor was the founder of Dao! If they could obtain some additional guidance or other help from the Dao Ancestor, it would definitely make it easier for them to control the Dao.
They had all tried this before. However, the Dao Ancestor treated them all the same every time. There would not be any special care.
Xiao Shi’s arrival this time caused the Dao Ancestor to treat him differently from before. This made them feel indignant and envious. However, no matter how uncomfortable they were, they were helpless against the Dao Ancestor’s arrangements. They could only leave first.
In an instant, only Xiao Shi and the Dao Ancestor were left here. Xiao Shi was also surprised that the Dao Ancestor had specially left him behind. He knew very well that the other party had definitely not asked him to stay because of his previous evaluation. Instead, there was a deeper reason.
“Could it be…? Is this related to the time when 1 met him in the Tianwu Continent?” Xiao Shi had a guess.
The Dao Ancestor stared at Xiao Shi seriously and said, “Old Seventh, 1 can sense my External Dao from you.”
“External Dao?” Xiao Shi was puzzled. Even though he had previously used the Record of the Upper Three Realms of the Martial Dao to understand the entire Daolord Realm in detail, he had never heard of such a Dao in the records of the Daolord Realm.
“This Dao is my unique Dao. Only 1 can control this Dao in the world. Even in the endless years in the future, there won’t be another person who can control this Dao. And the use of this Dao was to leave a Dao mark on the bodies of everyone who comes into contact with my incarnation, who is in any spacetime. Now, 1 can see the Dao mark left behind by my External Dao!”
The Dao Ancestor explained to Xiao Shi.
Xiao Shi was shocked. As expected! The mysterious old man he had encountered back then was the Dao Ancestor! However, it was not the Dao Ancestor himself. It was an incarnation formed by the External Dao.
This made Xiao Shi’s heart tighten. Now that the Dao Ancestor had sensed this, would he see through that he was not from the Beginner Martial Era?
They could not reveal to the people of the Beginner Martial Era that they were from the future era. They could not let the people of the Beginner Martial Era discover this. Otherwise, it would cause some kind of chaos. They would also be treated as heretics and not tolerated by the will of the Beginner Martial Era.
Fortunately, the Dao Ancestor automatically imagined that.
“It seems that you’ve had the opportunity to enter other space-time in the past. Not bad! I want to know if the incarnation you encountered at that time brought you good fortune or bad fortune?”
The Dao Ancestor’s words made Xiao Shi heave a sigh of relief. He realized that it was not so easy to expose their identities in the Beginner Martial Era. Even a mighty figure like the Dao Ancestor, when he discovered that there was something strange about them, he would also imagine it and not directly associate it with the future era.
Then, as long as they did not take the initiative to tell the people of the Beginner Martial Era that they were from the future era, even if some unreasonable behavior appeared here, as long as it was not too ridiculous, the people of the Beginner Martial Era would automatically imagine and rationalize it..
