As the Saintess spoke, Dugu Shanhe within the illusory realm of his skill heard it too.

But with how engrossed he was in memories, he simply ignored it continuing to scour them for more secrets.

“Truly a fool.” The Saintess shook her head. “Doesn’t even know this was a warning for his life… I might be forgiving, but he won’t be…” she muttered before withdrawing.

Dugu Shanhe was like an addict and was ignoring everything else that was happening. The memories and secrets of Lin Mu were astonishing and highly addicting for him.

‘He’s a Peak Master of a Celestial Sect? How is that even possible? And what are those snakes? Yin Yang Twin Serpents?’ as the man kept on looking through the memories, hundreds of question were forming in his mind.

On some level, he was similar to Lin Mu, having insatiable curiosity.

It had reached a point where he was deliberately ignoring everything else. After all, to Dugu Shanhe his skill combined with the isolation of the Spatial plane provided him with all the security he needed.

Lin Mu heard what Dugu Shanhe was muttering and knew that he was reaching the critical memories now.

And just as he realized that something changed.

The white ribbons of memories that were coming from Lin Mu’s head suddenly turned yellow.

“Huh?” Dugu Shanhe couldn’t miss this change, as it had suddenly interrupted his joy trip. “Why are they blurry?” he said, feeling stunned.

“How can this be?” Dugu Shanhe focused on the memories, but they simply didn’t clear up.

He looked at Lin Mu and saw that he was still stuck, but the memories coming from him had all turned yellow.

“You… what are these memories?” Dugu Shanhe questioned, anger appearing on his face.

He was like a child that had his favorite toy taken away in the middle of playing. Normally he wouldn’t react like this, but having learned astonishing information from Lin Mu, he couldn’t help but feel furious.

Dugu Shanhe felt like it was his own property that had been snatched from him!

Lin Mu didn’t answer him though. He was struggling to keep his mind in order and trying to actively resist it all. He had managed to grasp something that he had missed at first. 

“You’re doing this! Aren’t you!?” Dugu Shanhe shouted. “STOP IT!” he yelled.

But Lin Mu paid no heed to it, simply focusing on his thought flow. 

Dugu Shanhe tried to forcefully read the memories but found himself unable to. In fact, even the memories that he had read earlier started to turn blurry.

“No! How are you doing this?” Dugu Shanhe was at an impasse.

This was merely the start though, as the yellow-colored ribbons of memories started to change once more. From their plain yellow color, they changed to take on a golden yellow glow. This golden yellow color was something that Lin Mu was rather familiar with.

Once the memories changed into this, Dugu Shanhe was no longer able to read anything.

“What is this!? Why can’t these be read?” Dugu Shanhe shouted.

If the previous white memories were made from cotton, and the yellow memories were made from fine silk, the golden yellow memories were made from pure gold!

In fact, Dugu Shanhe only saw himself being reflected in the memories instead of actually what they contained.

“STOP THIS!” Now it was Dugu Shanhe repeating Lin Mu’s words.

Instead of Lin Mu replying though, another voice was heard.

“Oh? Now you want to stop?” a deep voice that chilled one’s very soul was heard.

Dugu Shanhe unconsciously shivered upon hearing it, not knowing where it was coming from.

“Who…?” He looked around but only saw Lin Mu there.

“Didn’t you want to see it all?” The voice spoke again.

“Who are you?” Dugu Shanhe questioned, his tone frantic.

“I’ll show you that too… but since you wanted to see secrets… LET ME SHOW YOU!” The voice said out loud, turning into an inhuman shout.

The golden yellow ribbons suddenly multiplied in number, covering every inch of Dugu Shanhe’s vision. They completely surrounded him, preventing him from seeing anything else. His form was reflected on the golden ribbons that seemed to have a mirror like finish.

But this was merely the start of the man’s dread. 

“Now… See!” The voice commanded as the scene on the golden ribbons changed.

~HUMM~

The reflection on the golden ribbons suddenly transformed into a vast expanse of darkness. It was strange as Dugu Shanhe couldn’t see the ribbons anymore and yet he could tell they were still there. 

“This…” A feeling of terror crept up Dugu Shanhe’s body, making him shiver nonstop.

The vast expanse of darkness that Dugu Shanhe saw suddenly started to expand even more. Then a moment later, he saw tens of objects appearing on them. They looked like tiny dots at first, but expanded into large spheres. They had various colors and patterns on them, with some glowing and burning with light.

~SHUA~

This lasted for a few seconds before the spheres started to multiply. Tens turned into hundreds, hundreds turned into thousands and thousands turned into tens of thousands!

Dugu Shanhe started to see numerous creatures in each of these spheres, making him think that these were worlds. 

A Million Worlds!

He saw the lives of the creature and their fates.

A Hundred Million Worlds!

Dugu Shanhe witnessed the deaths of all creatures as well as the destruction of the worlds.

A Billion Worlds!

He saw the cycle of life billions of times in just a few seconds. By this point, his eyes were bleeding and the blood had reached his neck.

“WHAT IS THIS? STOP IT! I DON’T WANT TO SEE!” Dugu Shanhe shouted.

He wanted to close his eyes, but simply could not.

He had lost control…

“Once you’ve trod upon untouchable karma, you have to bear the consequences.” The deep voice spoke again in a cold tone.

“Who… what are you?” Dugu Shanhe questioned helplessly, unable to come to terms with the situation. “WHOSE MEMORIES ARE THESE? HOW CAN SOMEONE HAVE SO MANY? THIS ISN’T A SINGLE BEING!”

“Who am I, you ask?”

“I… AM… XUKONG!!!!!”
