Chapter 6 Six Hours Later

Jiang Chen was very upset. He was a child of destiny, and theoretically, his future should be smooth sailing. However, he didn't expect reality to slap him hard in the face.

He waited outside the Demon Lock Palace for a full eight hours, but the ferocious beasts inside seemed to be dead, refusing to say a word, leaving Jiang Chen feeling utterly hopeless.

Even at this point, Daoist Zihua couldn't help but speak up.

"Everyone, you have been imprisoned in the Demon Lock Palace for countless days and nights. Do you truly not wish to come out?"

"My young master is a child of destiny, blessed by fate. In the future, he will surely unify the Great Thousand Worlds. If you follow my young master, you can all attain enlightenment in the heavens."

Daoist Zihua said, feeling somewhat depressed. Theoretically, these ferocious beasts should be eagerly waiting to come out.

Even if they didn't want to follow someone else, they shouldn't remain silent, right?

This didn't make sense.

The Demon Lock Palace remained silent, causing Daoist Zihua and Jiang Chen to feel a headache.

In the end, Daoist Zihua coldly snorted.

"Since you all refuse to accept a toast, then when the time comes for my young master to rule the world, this debt will be settled sooner or later."

Daoist Zihua was truly angry. Jiang Chen was a child of destiny, and he was once the master of creation. Although he was the former master of creation, he still had his pride.

However, even after saying this, there was still no sound from within the Demon Lock Palace.

At this point, Daoist Zihua couldn't help but frown. He looked at Jiang Chen and said.

"Young Master, do you think these ferocious beasts might have already left the Demon Lock Palace?"

Daoist Zihua asked suspiciously, because this was too unreasonable. If these ferocious beasts had been trapped here for so long, they should theoretically be very eager for freedom.

Yet, no matter what the two of them said, they didn't give any response, seemingly fearless, which made him feel puzzled.

Hearing Daoist Zihua's voice, Jiang Chen directly and firmly denied it.

"Impossible. The seal within the Demon Lock Palace can only be undone by me. There is no one else in the world who can unlock it. They absolutely cannot leave."

Jiang Chen said with great confidence.

He knew very well what sealed the Demon Lock Palace. There was no one else in the world who could undo it except for him.

Daoist Zihua believed what Jiang Chen said, but the problem was that the ferocious beasts inside the Demon Lock Palace just wouldn't show themselves, which made him feel inexplicably frustrated.

"There is only one possibility now: these ferocious beasts still don't believe in me. I haven't shown them my true talent."

Jiang Chen said, stating his opinion.

In his eyes, these ferocious beasts were still inside the Demon Lock Palace. The reason they weren't answering him was because they didn't think he was a child of destiny.

That was Jiang Chen's thought.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Daoist Zihua couldn't help but nod, because there was no other reason to be found.

"Everyone, in that case, I will prove to you that I am a child of destiny."

Jiang Chen said calmly, his eyes full of confidence, and then he looked at Daoist Zihua.

"Senior Zihua, let's go to the Ancient Supreme Hall. The Supreme Ancient Talisman is there. If I obtain the ancient talisman, these ferocious beasts will understand who I really am."

Jiang Chen said.

Daoist Zihua nodded. Although Jiang Chen seemed calm, Daoist Zihua knew very well that Jiang Chen was already angry.

These ferocious beasts had treated him so slowly, and in the future, he would definitely settle this debt. It was just that Jiang Chen really needed the help of these ferocious beasts right now, so he seemed very calm.

And just like that, Daoist Zihua and Jiang Chen's figures disappeared from here.

A gust of breeze blew, making the Demon Lock Palace seem desolate.

And just five hours ago.

As the black hole appeared, Lu Changsheng, Arhat Hongye, and all the ferocious beasts were all sucked into it.

This was the entrance to a small world.

And at this moment.

Inside the Ancient Supreme Hall small world.

Two masters of creation sat facing each other.

They guarded the Ancient Supreme Hall. When the Palm Heaven Sect overthrew the Daoist orthodoxy, the two of them hid in this small world, sealing everything off. At the same time, they destroyed their own foundations. Although they possessed the strength of creation, their realms were no longer at the level of creation.

Just like Daoist Zihua, except Daoist Zihua was injured, while they destroyed their own foundations, so their strength was slightly stronger than Daoist Zihua's.

At this moment, the two sat facing each other. In front of them was a mirror, and some figures appeared on the mirror.

There was Lu Changsheng's figure, and there was also Jiang Chen's figure.

"Tai Wu of Creation, the child of destiny has arrived, but this person..."

The old man spoke, pointing to Lu Changsheng in the mirror, his tone somewhat curious.

They had been guarding this place, waiting for who knows how many years, just to wait for the child of destiny to descend.

But what they didn't expect was that the child of destiny had arrived, but someone had arrived here even earlier than the child of destiny. Not only had he arrived, but he had also undone the seal on the Demon Lock Palace.

How could this not make the two of them curious?

"Xu Wu of Creation, I also don't know what happened. Theoretically, the Demon Lock Palace must be unlocked by the child of destiny, but this Lu Changsheng did it one step ahead. It's really full of changes."

Tai Wu of Creation frowned, not knowing what to say.

"Yes, then what should we do? Who should we give the Supreme Ancient Talisman to?"

Xu Wu of Creation followed suit, frowning as he said.

"Back then, the Supreme told us to stay here and wait for the child of destiny to descend, and then hand the Supreme Ancient Talisman over to the child of destiny. But do you remember one thing the Supreme said?"

Tai Wu of Creation said in a deep voice.

"What thing?"

The latter asked.

Immediately, Tai Wu of Creation continued to speak.

"The Supreme once said that above the Great Dao is the Saint Dao, and above the Saint Dao is the Hongmeng. It is said that those who control the Hongmeng control fifty Saint Daos, controlling heaven and earth. And among them, there is a Dao of Escape, called a glimmer of hope."

"The Supreme once dared to make a great vow, hoping that we could find the escaped one. If we find him, everything will be incredible and can be accomplished."

"I suspect this person may be the escaped one."

Tai Wu of Creation said seriously.

Upon hearing this, Xu Wu of Creation's expression couldn't help but change.

The escaped one!

He had heard of this legend.

However, after a short while, he couldn't help but say.

"Then what should we do now? Should we give the Supreme Ancient Talisman to the child of destiny, or to this person?"

Xu Wu of Creation asked.

Upon hearing this, Tai Wu of Creation immediately said.

"Is there even a question? Of course, we have to give it to the escaped one! What is the child of destiny?"

Tai Wu of Creation said seriously.

"But what about the child of destiny?"

Xu Wu of Creation asked curiously.

"What can we do? We can only blame him for his bad luck for meeting Lu Changsheng. Moreover, this Jiang Chen has impure motives. Don't look at how polite he is to this Daoist Zihua now."

"But once he takes power and truly becomes the child of destiny, I think..."

At this point, Tai Wu of Creation stopped speaking.

Upon hearing this, Xu Wu of Creation couldn't help but fall silent.

Because it was indeed evident that this Jiang Chen was very opportunistic; it was just that his performance made him difficult to see through.

Daoist Zihua was in the midst of it all, so he was blinded by his own involvement, while they were clear-headed observers.

"Alright, whether it's the child of destiny or the escaped one, first come, first served. We are just following the rules."

Tai Wu of Creation said.

And the latter finally nodded, agreeing with this point of view.

And just like that.

Within the chaotic mist.

Two figures slowly appeared in front of Lu Changsheng.

Immediately afterward, a voice rang out.

"We have met the Master of Destiny."
