"Pff, as if we can't find a successor ourselves!" A supreme being sneered.
"Go ahead and find one, then!" The elderly ancestor of the Heavenly Scripture Dao sneered back.
They're always bickering here, but in reality, countless creatures have entered the ruins over the years, none of them worthy in their eyes.
They're all a bunch of masters with incredibly high standards!
Think about it, back when they were alive, they reigned unbeaten between Heaven and Earth!
Who could possibly catch their eye?
Since the ruins fell into the Mortal Realm, things have quieted down somewhat. Back in the Heavenly Realm, there were many talented young Heavenly Geniuses capable of entering the ruins.
Yet, almost none were watched favorably by these individuals.
Only those below the supreme beings were desperately selecting successors, fearful their legacy would vanish from this world.
Such individuals were the ones these supreme beings looked down upon the most. When it comes to succession, they preferred quality over quantity!
Even if it means breaking the chain of inheritance, they would not allow their supreme Dao to be disgraced. If necessary, they would even deny their own offspring. Surprisingly, many among these supreme beings did not pass their Dao on to their descendants.
In reality, these supreme beings in the ruins don't care at all about the strength of the person they choose to be their successor.
If they take a fancy to someone, even if that person is a common mortal without a shred of cultivation, they don't care. If they don't fancy someone, even if you are an eighteen-year-old Heavenly Immortal, they'd just spit and roll their eyes: A mere Heavenly Immortal! They're not nearly as impressive as we supremes!
Such a group indeed, no wonder the ancestor of the Heavenly Scripture Dao was flaunting his superiority unabashedly.
However, the ancestor of the Heavenly Scripture Dao had apparently forgotten something.
Because in these ruins, there are individuals they find worthy!
There's one person that almost everyone, including the most potent consciousness, hails as a demon.
Who would dare claim they don't find him worthy?
Chu Mo!
That innate realm individual who has managed to take a step never taken before in his realm!
More importantly, he's someone who, through bone refining and blood refining, advanced from a nine-tier body constitution to the innate and then the Daoist Realm, until finally reaching the ancestral realm!
It seems an understatement to describe such a person as a genius.
Even the term 'demon' seems somewhat inappropriate.
So, when the ancestor of the Heavenly Scripture Dao sarcastically responded with "you go find one", almost all of the supreme beings in the ruins fell silent instantaneously.
At that moment, a dominant consciousness emerged without suppressing others, but the other consciousnesses instinctively retracted when they sensed his emergence.
It wasn't out of fear, but respect.
Because this dominant consciousness belongs to one of the eldest beings in the ruins.
The elder being resides on the plains where the giant skeleton is located.
Didn't you see the Beiming Supreme Venerable stop pursuing when he reached there? Because on that plain, there's an unbelievably supreme being.
His supremacy is true and unmatched!
In the entire ruins, there are no beings older than him, and none have ever seen him. Yet, all beings in the ruins are aware of his existence.
The being has only expressed his consciousness once throughout countless years. During the Battle of the Gods in the Heavenly Realm that spread to the ruins, this being seemed displeased and merely huffed.
Immediately, two supremes closest to him exploded, leaving only their divine souls, which skedaddled in fear.
They all understood that he had shown mercy!
Otherwise, they would have undoubtedly perished!
A single huff capable of killing a supreme, what kind of power is that?
Following that, the ruins, originally within the Heavenly Realm, suddenly fell and landed all the way in the Mortal Realm.
The common belief is that the Battle of the Gods shattered a corner of Heavenly Realm, causing the ruins to fall into the Mortal Realm.
However, in the eyes of the supreme beings in the ruins, the ruins itself... had merely been relocated by that dominant being who was tired of the commotion caused by the Battle of the Gods in the Heavenly Realm!
Of course, only a small group of supremes in the ruins share this belief.
The other beings in the ruins or the Heavenly Realm are unaware of it. The two supremes who had their bodies shattered wouldn't disclose this, as they couldn't bear the humiliation.
Therefore, many supreme beings suspect that the being in there is an emperor!
But these are mere speculations, as nobody has ever seen his true form.
Typically, that being doesn't express any opinions. Like today, when the giant skeleton threatened to tear down the whole ruins, that being didn't make a peep.
As a result, the supremes of the ruins tend to ignore that being's existence.
The dominant consciousness emerged, saying, "What do you say we play a big game?"
The other supremes were instantly startled with all sorts of consciousnesses flying about.
"How do we play big?"
"A big game? I love it!"
"Are we going to storm out and stir up the Heavenly Realm?"
"Hahaha, that would be best. I still have enemies in the Heavenly Realm. I've been holding back, are we finally going to destroy them..."
"Stop arguing, let the elder speak!"
Fed up with the bickering, the giant skeleton used a bit of its strength to fling Chu Mo off, spread its hands implying it didn't want to fight anymore.
It's not that it didn't want to spar with Chu Mo, but rather that it was thoroughly annoyed by the chaotic consciousnesses in the void.
It had been blocking these consciousnesses so that Chu Mo wouldn't hear them, otherwise, he would surely be terrified.
Moreover, this sort of conversation is unbefitting of supremes!
Who in the world has seen a gang of supremes squabbling like a bunch of old gossips?
If those Heavenly Immortals or True Immortals in the Heavenly Realm are likely to maintain an aloof stance as per usual, right?
The dominant consciousness pondered for a moment and said, "How about all of us give him our greatest techniques?"
Once these words were out, there was a sudden and absolute silence in the sky.
The ancestor of the Heavenly Scripture Dao was stunned, it took him a while to mumble, "Isn't this a bit excessive? I was merely sharing my joy of finding a successor... Was that really necessary?"
The giant skeleton was utterly stunned and muttered to itself: Have you all gone mad?
"I presume you all can guess this kid's background by now. So, even if we pass on all our techniques to him, it actually... doesn't matter. Although that race suppressed this world, preventing us from taking that step, this actually... can't be blamed on the kid. In fact, if we were in their position, we might have made the same choice, right?" The dominant consciousness chuckled, "I think if we really do this, it's going to be fun watching this kid's future, haha." (To be continued. If you like this novel, please vote for it on qidian.com.
