Grandpa, times have changed.

Chapter 686 Neither rejects nor agrees
The 'true name' or 'honorary title' is the manifestation of the 'Tao' of an enlightened person, and in a sense, it can be considered a part of the enlightened person's own existence.

The same applies to Xu Xing and Bie Xuening's titles such as 'Sword Ancestor' and 'Sword Venerable'.

Of course, whether or not one uses an 'honorary title' or a 'real name' depends more on the individual who practices the Dao.

Those who reach this level cannot have their 'true name' imposed upon them, even by the myriad realms of the heavens, unless they themselves wish it to be.

For example, Huo, although the world calls him the 'Demon Ancestor', he himself does not really agree with this title, so other enlightened beings cannot anchor themselves to him based on the title of 'Demon Ancestor'.

The same applies to the supreme being.

The reason he deliberately concealed his real name was to avoid revealing unnecessary information and to prevent the Thirteen True Immortals of Tai Xuan and the Second Ancestor of the Cang Clan from tracking him down.

He truly did not want to get involved in the conflict between the human race and the Cang race in the Tai Xuan Realm.

However, it's not that there's no way to locate the world of the supreme being.

As long as Xu Xing takes her to the outside of the Tai Xuan Realm, using her as an anchor point, there is a certain probability that he can locate the world of that supreme being through the connection on her body.

Whether it will actually happen...

We also need to see if the Dao of the Supreme Being has any 'hidden' characteristics.

If it exists, then finding Him is not necessarily an option.

After all, those who can reach the level of 'enlightened beings' are not simple.

This is a truly great being that transcends all beings and spirits in all realms, completely beyond the comprehension of ordinary beings.

Inside the prison.

Xu stood in the center of the magic circle, his lips tightly pressed together.

Xu Xing's words just now made her realize what was going on.

Yes.

For an unparalleled being like the Sword Ancestor, how could he possibly need my answer to what he wants to know?
All the resolutions one makes, and even the thoughts deep in one's heart, are meaningless.

What will you do with me?

"Well..."

Xu Xing pondered for a moment, looking at the ruins in front of him.

This is the first being from an outer world to have reached a level above the Dao Integration stage.

As the highest point in the 'ritual' transcendent system, her immeasurable 'True Runes of the Ruins' constantly change and flow, forming her true divine body.

This is a state that is completely different from that of a Dongzhen cultivator, yet possesses the same status.

Ba Zun had previously speculated that after Xu was sent to the Tai Xuan Realm, he would be suppressed by the Tai Xuan Realm due to the difference in their own systems.

But the current situation is clearly not what he predicted. The Tai Xuan Realm is far more 'inclusive' than the Overlord had anticipated, even...

What race do you consider yourself to belong to?

Ok?
This is a very familiar problem.

After only a slight hesitation, she gave her answer.

"Of course people."

Same answer as before.

After answering, she looked at Xu Xing nervously.

She didn't know if her answer would satisfy the great being before her, but lying was pointless in the face of such a being...

Just as she was filled with fear and unease, Xu Xing's gaze passed over her, piercing through the 'Hidden Prison' to observe the changes in the Tai Xuan Realm.

Unfortunately, the changes he hoped for did not happen.

"pity……"

He had originally thought that since the Tai Xuan Realm did not reject Xu, would it accept her?
That's why he suddenly had the idea to ask that question, wanting to confirm some of his guesses.

Even though Xu himself said that he was human, the 'weight' of the human race in the Tai Xuan Realm still did not increase at all.

I neither reject nor agree with it...

This is the attitude of the Tai Xuan Realm towards beings above the Dao Integration level in the outer world, or more accurately, towards beings at the 'Dong Zhen' level.

pity?

Xu didn't quite understand the meaning of those words, but he didn't dare to interrupt the great being in front of him.

After a long while, Xu Xing looked at her again. "Stay here for now. I understand everything you've done, but our world doesn't currently have any laws to judge you."

Ok?
Law?

Trial?

Does someone as great as you need to abide by these rules?
Sword Ancestor...

Your title doesn't seem like that of a great being who holds 'laws' and 'order'.
“Yes, it is necessary.” Xu Xing seemed to see right through her. “Let’s not even mention that you have a method left behind by another fellow Daoist.”

Ok? !

Xu's heart tightened.

Could this be referring to that 'Demon Ancestor'?

"Secondly, you are the first 'non-ascended' to come to our world after the 'Ascension Plan' was implemented, and how we deal with you will affect our subsequent arrangements to some extent."

"So I will think it over carefully and consult with other people before deciding on your fate."

Is this 'ruin' in front of me a good person?
Of course not!
Just as she introduced herself—'a witness to the end of the world'.

She was severely injured in her previous battle with Yuan, and in order to recover, she personally guided several worlds toward annihilation.

And all of this has absolutely nothing to do with the word 'good'.

However, it is foreseeable that as the 'Ascension Plan' unfolds and the Immortal Network encompasses more and more realms, similar incidents will inevitably become more and more frequent.

For such creatures, there must be a specific method for evaluation and a procedure for handling them.

Therefore, Xu Xing planned to take this opportunity to have the sect leaders of various sects and some Dongzhen discuss and reach a conclusion.

Until then, just keep her locked up here.

Ruins: "..."

What is this all about?

"Thank you for your answer, great Sword Ancestor."

Despite these explanations, she still couldn't quite grasp the meaning behind the great being's words.

But this did not prevent her from displaying a humble attitude, increasing her chances of survival.

Will I survive?

Xu still asked the question that concerned him most.

"As compensation, I will guide those worlds that are heading towards destruction to revive and sort out the timeline within those worlds, so that they can return to the moment before I influenced them."

She didn't get much information from the conversation just now.

But one thing is certain: the Sword Ancestor before us is a being who leans towards 'lawful'.

Fortunately, the worlds she led to annihilation will not completely disappear like those worlds that perish on their own, but will remain until the last moment she 'witnessed' them.

There is still a chance to salvage the situation.

“I know the pain I have caused them is irreparable, so I am willing to accept any punishment except death.”

She made no attempt to hide her will to survive.

As I said before, all concealment is meaningless in the face of a great being.

"Do you know what this means?"

"Yes."

The biggest difference between the 'ritual' transcendental system and the cultivation system is that they influence themselves through external changes.

Therefore, they are also easily affected by external changes.

Of course, the higher the level of existence, the more difficult it is to be affected, but only those who have attained enlightenment can truly ignore this limitation.

Even a superhuman like Xu, who has reached the level of a true god, could have very little influence on her changes.

But this absolutely does not include acts like 'reviving the world,' which are self-destructive!

　Second update.

　　I lay down to rest in bed halfway through writing, and ended up falling asleep.

　　There will still be two updates today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow; I'll catch up gradually.
