“The old woman once reminded me that there’s a limit to the abilities given by the divine patterns. Don’t try to analyze the blood of a terrifying creature that makes me palpitate. The palpitation is the feedback given by the divine patterns, proving that I can’t digest it.”

“But facing this drop of blood that contains terrifying power, I’m still tempted.”

“For this, I struggled for some time, but in the end, my desire for power overcame the fear in my heart. I chose to devour that drop of blood.”

“When the Pillar Gods’ blood entered my body, my blood seemed to be ignited by flames and became extremely hot… At that time, I even thought that I was going to die.”

“Throughout this period, an extensive amount of knowledge about the world’s rules was implanted into my mind. I couldn’t comprehend these distorted symbols and information at all. The influx continued to increase, and eventually, I lost consciousness.”

“When I woke up, I realized that my strength had increased greatly, and my perception of the outside world had become especially clear. I could even feel the subtle changes in the outside world when I breathed.”

“At that moment, I believed I had succeeded. It was only when I unexpectedly plunged into a frenzied state that I realized it wasn’t success but failure. The cost was falling into madness intermittently, becoming entirely uncontrollable.”

“Fortunately, I was the only one on Route 32 during that period. I didn’t have to worry about affecting my comrades.”

“Uncle Tian Shu, are you talking about losing control of your emotions or other symptoms?” Mu Qing asked curiously.

“I didn’t lose control of my emotions. I lost consciousness in an instant and my body entered an instinctive bloodthirsty state. Perhaps this is also related to my fusing with a large number of domain creature abilities. In short, I couldn’t control my actions at that time.”

Hearing this, Feng Qi couldn’t help but glance at Mu Qing.

In comparison, Mu Qing only lost control of her emotions. It was completely different from the unconscious state that Tian Shu said.

Tian Shu continued to explain.

“I’m sure you’re very curious why I, who was supposed to guard Route 32, returned to the human world.”

“Everything was an accident. During the years I guarded Route 32,1 never let any domain creature pass. All the domain creatures that entered Route 32 paved a path of bones in my slaughter.”

At this point, Tian Shu paused for a moment and continued.

“It wasn’t until I faced an exceptionally formidable domain race that things changed. They possessed immense power, and dealing with them proved to be incredibly challenging. After a grueling battle, I managed to eliminate the majority of the race’s members. However, a few domain creatures, taking advantage of the chaos, evaded my interception and dashed to the end of Route 32.”

“This was the first time I’ve made a mistake. I was so anxious that I decisively chased after them. I thought that if I couldn’t catch up in the end, it would be fine. I could only leave them to the warriors of the human world.”

“But at that time, I lost control and chased after the remaining domain creatures through the world barrier and returned to the human world.”

“They were all dead, but I couldn’t go back.”

“Shouldn’t you be looking for Mu Yao? She could have sent you back to the Path to Heaven and even helped you resolve the hidden danger in your body.”

Feng Qi immediately asked.

“I’ve searched for her, but I couldn’t find her at all. She never came to seek me out.”

“I’m undoubtedly a ticking time bomb if I remain in the human world, especially within a city. If I lose control, I would pose a threat that the humans of that time couldn’t possibly withstand.”

Hearing this, Feng Qi finally understood the detailed reason why Tian Shu chose to seal himself.

Just as Tian Shu had said at the beginning, he had no choice.

However, at this moment, he still had many questions that he needed Tian Shu to answer for him..
