"Then..."
Suddenly, Lu Sheng thought back to the matter discussed by his companions on their way to the Pure and Muddy Gate.
A Golden Core elder of the Pure and Muddy Gate apparently was possessed by a Heart Demon while breaking his Core, and now he is nowhere to be found.
"Could it be… that the Golden Core elder discovered the secrets of this world while breaking his Core, rebelled, and was ultimately consumed by that Nascent Soul Insect Immortal, causing his disappearance?"
Thoughts raced through Lu Sheng's mind.
"If that's the case… doesn't the Void Insect Race control all sources of strength in this world, leaving those enslaved by them without any chance of rising?"
"The hope of this world… has been suffocated by the Void Insect Race from the very beginning!"
Upon realizing this, Lu Sheng's expression grew complicated, and he could only let out a faint sigh in his heart.
