"This is..." Qu Chen was utterly horrified.
All the powerful entities felt the same, somewhat scared.
Could it be that the Desolate Ancestor wishes to merge with Liu Ying?
Although what's left of the Desolate Ancestor now is only a bit of his True Spirit, a fragment of his soul, this sliver of True Spirit carries all of the Desolate Ancestor's memories, all his insights into the Great Path, and it also harbors his emotions and true intentions.
If this sliver of True Spirit could be preserved, it's not an exaggeration to say that its value would absolutely surpass any Chaotic Supreme Treasure.
Moreover, generally speaking, existences like the Desolate Ancestor either cannot preserve their True Spirit or pass it on.
But such powerful beings all have their dignity, all have their pride; they would rather let their True Spirit vanish than become the foundation for someone else's path to enlightenment or a stepping stone for others.
