Tan Yun furrowed his brows and replied, "Senior, don't you know? The universe you were in before has already faced great cosmic destruction."
As Tan Yun inquired, he felt that the dragon-snake with purple eyes beast was not simple at all.
Tan Yun suspected that the dragon-snake with purple eyes beast had once been a powerful being; otherwise, it wouldn't so confidently refer to itself in the first person, considering it was only a ninth-class great sage beast.
"What do you mean the universe has been destroyed?" The dragon-snake with purple eyes beast trembled, unable to believe it, and said, "Is this true?"
"Yes, senior, it's absolutely true!" Tan Yun replied.
"How could this happen?" The dragon-snake with purple eyes beast muttered to itself, "With the master around, how could the universe possibly be destroyed? Could it be that the master has met with misfortune?"
Suddenly, the dragon-snake with purple eyes beast raised its head, staring intently at Tan Yun, and asked, "Tell me quickly, is the eternal ancestral god still alive?"
Tan Yun shuddered, "The eternal ancestral god passed away to save his son."
Upon hearing this, the dragon-snake with purple eyes beast's body trembled violently, and tears slid down its wrinkled cheeks, crying like a child:
"Master! Wuwu... How could you die! Wuwu... You are the eternal undying ancestral god... How could you die... Wuwu..."
Looking at the dragon-snake with purple eyes beast in tears, a deep sorrow appeared in Tan Yun's starry eyes, and he comforted, "The deceased have passed, senior, please do not be too sad..."
In its crying, the dragon-snake with purple eyes beast roared at Tan Yun, "You child, you are talking nonsense! My master is not dead!"
"My master is a peerless expert in the divine path origin realm; back then, only my master and Zhang Sun Ancestral God cultivated to the divine path origin realm!"
"My master said that a strong expert in the divine path origin realm has a 90% chance of surviving the cosmic destruction; how could my master possibly die!"
"It can't be... You must be lying to me!"
Upon hearing this, Tan Yun's starry eyes filled with tears, "I also wish my father had not died, but my father truly has fallen."
"Father?" The dragon-snake with purple eyes beast stared at Tan Yun fiercely, an aura of killing intent surging forth, "Nonsense! You human dare to impersonate Young Master Xiao, dare to impersonate my master's child!"
"I would rather stay in this cage than let you live!"
After saying this, the dragon-snake with purple eyes beast abruptly lunged at Tan Yun, extending its bony right palm to strike at Tan Yun's chest.
With a single strike, the space above the lake collapsed with a loud bang!
The speed was so fast that Tan Yun couldn't dodge at all!
Feeling the aura emanating from the strike, Tan Yun's heart sank in fear.
"Ancient Divine Armor!"
In an instant, with a thought, the divine ring shimmered with silver light, and a set of ancient armor radiating an ancient aura materialized from Tan Yun's body.
"Ha!"
Tan Yun clenched his right fist, primordial great sage power surging within him, and thrust his right fist forward!
"Bang!"
"Rumble—"
At the moment their palms collided, a storm of energy erupted violently, the overwhelming aftermath devoured the void, causing the void to collapse!
"Poof!"
In the dark spatial cavity, Tan Yun, wearing the Ancient Divine Armor, spat out blood and was blasted away thousands of feet like a cannonball!
"Kid, you have some skill, and you didn't die!"
With a cold voice, the dragon-snake with purple eyes beast floated through the void and appeared in front of Tan Yun in the blink of an eye, its bony right hand transforming into claws, gripping Tan Yun's neck.
At this moment, Tan Yun's face turned pale; from the outside, he appeared uninjured, but his entire right arm within the Ancient Divine Armor was already a bloody mess.
Tan Yun had no doubt that if not for the protection of the Ancient Divine Armor, his right arm would have been crushed under the dragon-snake with purple eyes beast's palm!
