Now, the Monkey Masters saw the legend unfold in the chaos, and it made them uneasy.
If the main world were compared to a huge world, the chaos would just be a small puddle.
So a human who came from the puddle inherited the ancestry-level bloodline?
It seemed like a joke.
Meanwhile, the Monkey Spirit King waited patiently for Zen to speak.
This was surprising, especially because among the four leaders of the Four Spirits Sect, he was the most impatient and innocent one.
When the Four Spirits Sect attacked their enemies on the edge of the main world, he fought hundreds of battles and took thousands of lives.
All of this was just to save a Monkey Master who was not even important to the Monkey Spirit Sect.
Being imprisoned in the dream for more than a thousand chaotic eras, he reflected on everything he had done.
If he were more cautious and less naive, would things have ended differently?
He did not know how many times he had this thought.
Was it a millions times? Or did it go over a hundred million times?
When he realized that Zen had the ancestry-level bloodline in his body, he was shocked but did his best to maintain a calm expression.
"I don't know.
The Eternal Divine Courtyard was already deserted by the time I arrived.
When I entered the sacred cup, the light columns lit up,"
Zen replied genuinely.
The Eternal Divine Courtyard was built by the Four Spirits Sect.
It seemed that the Monkey Spirit King knew more about the ancestry-level bloodline than Zen ever did.
Zen could no longer hide from him, so he decided it was best to answer honestly.
Moreover, it was a good step to get the Monkey Spirit King on his side.
"Light columns? How many would you say lit up?" the Monkey Spirit King asked patiently.
"If I recall correctly, it was all of them," replied Zen.
The jaws of Manuel, Hagar, Tearrag and Nereus dropped down in awe.
Though they wanted to react, all of them were speechless.
Meanwhile, the expression of the Monkey Spirit King was hard to read. He mastered the art of keeping still, and could probably do so even if the whole world collapsed right in front of him.
Even when the rest gasped, his expression never changed.
"Why all?" asked the Monkey Spirit King.
This didn't make any sense. Mere talent was not a reason, either.
Zen shook his head in confusion. "I... I don't know."
One hundred and eighty-seven light columns had risen. At that time, he was completely immersed in the ancestry-level bloodline, so he paid no attention to the outside world.
The moment he woke up, he saw that the light columns below the sacred cup were all lit up.
The Monkey Spirit King saw Zen's sincere eyes and felt a little dubious.
However, it was meaningless to dwell on it now.
"This is incredible!"
The Monkey Spirit King raised his hands in the air. "How should I repay you for waking me up?"
In this world, returning a favor was a high honor.
Even if Manuel and the others didn't point it out, the Monkey Spirit King could tell that Zen had intentions to be fulfilled.
"Well..."
Zen shrugged his shoulders and turned towards the Primeval Lord of Heaven. "It was actually the Primeval Lord of Heaven who helped you wake up, so..."
"But I am asking you." The Monkey Spirit King didn't let him finish.
Because the Primeval Lord of Heaven was the leader of the human heroes, Zen naturally asked him for opinions.
Now that Zen had to make his own decision, he grew uneasy.
