Worldwide Simulation Era

"Lord Temple Master, this is what happened. The king ordered all of these. We were forced! It was all forced by that Lord Deity. Please spare us!"

The two guards knelt on the ground in fear and trepidation. They kept kowtowing, hoping Lin Qiye would spare their lives.

However, Wan Meng's expression changed drastically when she heard this. She was extremely shocked.

"How dare you lie to my master!? Are you tired of living?"

Wan Meng glared at the two trembling guards, and the aura in her body became restless as if she was about to kill them at any moment.

"Miss, please spare our life! I'm telling the truth! I didn't lie at all. If I'm lying, I'll be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!"

"Ah! Yes! This is Lord Deity's idea. He was the one who told us that the Holy Infant had died in battle! Moreover, he oppressed and threatened us. We had no choice but to submit. In fact, we will always be loyal believers of the Holy Infant."

Facing the terrifying pressure of Wan Meng's aura, tears streamed down the two guards' faces as they bowed their heads repeatedly. They kept pushing the blame on the Lord Deity and the so-called king.

Their reactions made Lin Qiye and Wan Meng's hearts grow heavier.

"Master, they don't look like they're lying, but how is that possible? Master, you've clearly..."

Wan Meng stopped talking.

Lin Qiye frowned and pondered silently.

Without a doubt, there was a strange possibility in front of Lin Qiye— The Heavenly Star Daoist is not dead!

But how could that be?

He had clearly been killed. Moreover, Lin Qiye killed him personally.

However!

From the two guards, Lin Qiye learned that a month ago, the Heavenly Star Daoist had held Lonemoon and the others hostage and intercepted the fleeing troops of the four empires.

At that time, he seemed to have said something to the four rulers. Then, he left Lonemoon and the others behind and disappeared.

After the Heavenly Star Daoist left, the king of Country Man was attacked by the other three rulers.

The king scolded them for not caring about morals, ganging on him three-to-one.

He was enraged.

However, he was no match for the other three and could only flee in a sorry state.

The other three rulers went to chase after him, while Lonemoon took advantage of the chaos to escape.

Without the rulers, the higher-ups fled in all directions. The refugees of the four empires were in chaos.

Of course, the chaotic situation did not last long. Soon, the Heavenly Star Daoist appeared again.

Along with him was the king of Country Man, who had escaped.

As for the whereabouts of the other rulers, no one knew.

This time, the Heavenly Star Daoist dismissed all the refugees who had gone to Tata Village.

Then, he gathered some Immortal Realm cultivators to Tata Village to integrate them.

During this period, the Heavenly Star Daoist told the residents of Tata Village that Lin Qiye and his subordinates had all died in battle outside the realm.

Later on, Tata Village was invaded by many demons, but they were all resolved by the Heavenly Star Daoist.

With the constant brainwashing and the push of some Celestial Realm cultivators, the Holy Infant City God Temple was slowly changed to the Heavenly God Temple.

That was how it happened.

The only thing that confused Lin Qiye was that he had killed the Heavenly Star Daoist a month ago.

However, he could not recall the situation and could not confirm if the Heavenly Star Daoist was really dead.

The two people in front of him didn't look like they were lying either.

Could it be that the Heavenly Star Daoist had two lives?

At the thought of this, Lin Qiye suddenly had a hunch. He turned around and gently pressed Wan Meng's head.

"Girl, you said that two of the three High Gods of the Heavenly God Palace are the incarnations of the Heavenly Star Daoist, right?"

Wan Meng was still in shock and subconsciously nodded. "That's right. He hasn't been able to break through in the past hundred thousand years, so..."

At this point, Wan Meng immediately covered her mouth in fear.

Both of them thought of a possibility.

The incarnations that the Heavenly Star Daoist had cultivated were not condensed by ordinary means. Instead, it was a Dharma Body created by the power of virtue.

Back then, Lin Qiye had heard from the fat monk about the details of the Outer Dao Dharma Body.

Strictly speaking, the clone condensed by the Outer Dao Dharma could no longer be called a clone. Instead, it was an almost independent lifeform.

It shared a soul with its main body but could cultivate independently.

As long as his divine sense was not destroyed, any clone could become the main body.

Lin Qiye's expression was ugly. He believed Wan Meng's words. At that time, the Heavenly Star Daoist had been killed by him.

However, the crux of the problem was that his consciousness was not clear at that time, so he could not know if the Heavenly Star Daoist's divine sense had escaped.

"Oh no!"

Just as Lin Qiye was thinking of a countermeasure, Wan Meng suddenly exclaimed.

Lin Qiye turned to look at Wan Meng, who looked flustered and hurriedly said, "Shit, Master. The small world we were in was probably not left behind by those seniors!"

Lin Qiye frowned slightly. "Do you mean…"

It was a bad guess. So much so that Wan Meng had a trace of fear on her face.

"There… Could it be the Heavenly Star Daoist's God Realm?"

Lin Qiye's heart skipped a beat. The appearance of that small world was indeed too bizarre.

If it was really the Heaven Star Daoist's God Realm, then the battle-robed man left inside…

Lin Qiye's eyes flickered. He was a little uncertain. They had been staying in that small world all this time.

If that world was the Heavenly Star Daoist's God Realm, their existence would have been discovered long ago.

However, they had been there for more than a month, and the Heavenly Star Daoist had not appeared. Lin Qiye could not understand.

Could the Heavenly Star Daoist have given up on devouring Lin Qiye?

It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"No, it can't be. It must be a coincidence."

Lin Qiye shook his head silently. However, he did not dare to confirm it.

He could only hope that the battle-robed man had already left the small world.

"Master, no matter what, let's leave this place quickly! We have to make other plans."

The possibility that the Heavenly Star Daoist was still alive made Wan Meng panic.

If Lin Qiye was discovered by the Heavenly Star Daoist, they would have had no chance of survival. The current situation was grave.

Lin Qiye understood as well. He was short of time.

And now, he did not have enough time to rise. He could not fight against the Heavenly Star Daoist head-on.

Before he had enough strength, he could only find a way around it. He must silently search for the Heavenly Star Daoist's weakness and kill him in one strike.

As he thought of this, Lin Qiye nodded. Their figures turned ethereal and soon disappeared from the temple without a trace.
