The true Taiyi and Taisu Dao Ancestors, attained their path even before the creation of the world, are the true ancient gods!

To say they were defeated by Time's Ouroboros and Master of the Gate, Zhong Shenxiu can barely believe it.

But to be replaced silently is almost an impossible feat.

Without saying more, Tai Shi Mountain itself is the best example; upon the day of the Dao Ancestors' transmutation, cultivators across the mountain fell into the Demon Path together, never to recover!

How could the Fang and Zhengyi paths have been preserved?

"Usurpation? No... why would we, such beings, need to? Nor is it necessary..."

Time's Ouroboros chuckled lightly: "Before Mysterious Lord and Deceitful Master's transmutation, They divided some of Their symbols and authority, entrusting them to us. For beings like us, this is not particularly difficult... And after receiving this part of the gift, we could perfectly play the roles of Taiyi and Taisu, and protect and maintain the lineage of these two..."

"As expected, the two have a deep connection with this world... No, isn't it rather unbelievable that a world could give birth to five ancient gods?"

A flash of light appeared in Zhong Shenxiu's eyes.

"Haven't you traveled through this world already, haven't you guessed?"

The Master of the Gate asked with a smile that was not quite a smile.

"Yes, I have indeed guessed... This world... was created by some powerful transmigrator? Thus it contains so many supernatural phenomena? Even the landscapes, the progression of history, the mountains and rivers... all seem so familiar to me?"

Zhong Shenxiu took a deep breath.

He had long felt this world was too familiar.

However, if a transmigrator used their own world as a blueprint, it would not be surprising, much like his childhood games in the Seven Luminaries Heaven, which left transmigrator Liu Ji completely awestruck.

"Correct... This is a world created by a powerful being, even connected to their 'Dao Fruit'... Otherwise, we wouldn't have come here in such a hurry to protect this realm."

Time's Ouroboros sighed.

'Indeed, a fellow countryman... To be able to create such a grand world, even with origins so profound as to birth numerous unique deities, forming the five Innate Great Primes as ancient gods... This countryman's level is certainly a major tier higher than mine!'

Zhong Shenxiu's eyes lit up brightly: "The next realm for beings like us is to merge three unique divinities and possess the power to create worlds? Even... could true gods also be nurtured in the worlds we create?"

"After True God, the paths are for each to explore on their own, we cannot be sure, but this is indeed a direction... This is how that great being broke through, but also left a flaw..."

The voice of the Master of the Gate contained a slight ripple.

"Dao Fruit, world, great being..."

Zhong Shenxiu, hearing many secrets, his mind was racing, asked the most crucial question: "Then... why did the five Innate Great Primes, the five ancient gods, collectively undergo transmutation? And where is that great being?"

"That great being is naturally on the Ancient Battlefield, contending with formidable opponents, a realm beyond our comprehension..."

Time's Ouroboros replied: "And as for why the five Innate Great Primes collectively underwent transmutation? Do you think... what does this world mean to those great beings?"

"Didn't you say it before? Dao Fruit?" Zhong Shenxiu was suddenly startled.

"It seems you have realized, indeed... This world can also be seen as the inner heaven and earth of that great being... Why did the five Innate Great Primes undergo transmutation? Naturally, it was because that great being was injured, unable to suppress their own transmutation power... Under the pull of the Dao Fruit, manifested in this world, it led to the collective descent into the demonic path of the five Innate Great Primes!" The Master of the Gate hissed in response.

"So the five Innate Great Primes transformed into five Supreme Demons, continuously eroding this world, is because the situation of that great being is deteriorating?" Zhong Shenxiu suddenly realized: "I wondered why these beings would be so superficial, fixated on a world, turns out there is such a secret behind it!"

"Although we are True Gods, we cannot enter the true Ancient Battlefield, but we can maneuver, like this time, by protecting this world, it counts as contributing to the frontline battlefield..." Time's Ouroboros added.

"In this sense, the three of us are like a dose of Spiritual Medicine; if we can safeguard this world, we can maintain the rationality of that great being, thus sustaining the situation on the Ancient Battlefield..."

Zhong Shenxiu understood very clearly.

Such a powerful being, the world they created, must contain infinite mysteries.

Just being able to support the birth of five ancient gods is enough to leave others in awe.

At this moment, what needs to be done by our side is to stabilize the other side's injuries!

If this world is really the other's inner heaven and earth, then maintaining the security of this realm will certainly greatly aid in stabilizing their state.

Even, if those transmuted ancient gods could be slain and bring about a bright and clear world, perhaps the other party's injuries would significantly improve.

"Precisely!"

With a wave of his hand, Time's Ouroboros conjured a large amount of spirituality, flickering with light, forming a model of a world.

"Our mission is to prevent the Heavenly Demons from annihilating the world... Although these mortals are like ants, they represent that one's rationality beyond the heavens, if the world fully descends into the demonic path, that one might completely undergo transmutation too..."

"The layer of world defense was set up by that great being, and reinforced by us over the years, and apart from a few breaches, the rest is quite secure." The Master of the Gate continued, "We have repelled the invasion of the opponents several times, but now, another intrusion is about to begin..."

Through the model, Zhong Shenxiu seemed to see a vast world.

And on the membranes of the world's womb or the crystal wall system, several hideous wounds existed.

Five terrifying old gods were greedily watching those pathways, attempting to erode and contaminate...

"So, everything is clear."

Zhong Shenxiu nodded.

"The two of us, we are ultimately no match for the five ancient gods, hence we brought you along..."

Time's Ouroboros glanced at Fang Lang, eyes seemingly piercing through the flesh and blood puppet, directly seeing Zhong Shenxiu's true form: "You have already refined two unique divinities, your combat power is quite decent among ancient gods, just short of digesting the last unique divinity, then you can stand on the threshold of the 'Supreme' level with us..."

The road beyond True God requires individual exploration.

For instance, the 'creator' who created this world found a path suitable for themselves.

But whether it suits Zhong Shenxiu, no one knows.

"'Supreme'? Is this the name you give for the next level?"

Zhong Shenxiu laughed silently, knowing that this serpent had found its path.

"I understand, I choose to join."

After thinking for a while, he finally made up his mind.

"Very good, though abruptly revealing a Dao Ancestor may cause too much turmoil, we actually suggest you can choose to be like us and play one of the Innate Five Great Primes, re-establish the Dao lineage, such as the Taishi Dao Ancestor of Tai Shi Mountain does quite well... Apart from these three True Inheritances, there are actually two hidden inheritances within the Dao sect, quite influential as well in this realm." The Master of the Gate suggested.

Originally, before the transmutation of the five Innate Great Primes, they were also frantically trying to save themselves, such as dividing some symbols and authority to Time's Ouroboros and the Master of the Gate, the two outsiders.

"No need, pretending to be Them always feels a bit strange..."

Zhong Shenxiu waved it off, not wanting to take on this cosmic karma.

At the same time, he also thought of a ridiculous problem.

'If I were to be a Dao Ancestor, what would I be called? Taixiu?! Taixiu Dao Ancestor?!'
