“Master, I’m off!”
Lu Xuan nodded faintly.
The Void Kun departed, sensing the Dark Void’s call. The Dark Void, too, possessed a faint consciousness.
After examining the River of Time, Lu Xuan had come to understand many things. The existence of the Dark Void had indeed posed numerous threats to this starfield, its Fallen Power constantly dragging all the stars in the Star Sea downwards. Yet, at the same time, it lay at the edge of the Primordial Realm, secretly guarding it. The Dark Void had once belonged to Sir! Under the guise of destruction, it protected the Primordial Realm! Guarding everything that belonged to Sir!
Now, the Dark Void held no danger for him. He could treat it like returning home. Furthermore, the Dark Void was one of Sir’s contingencies, containing terrifying Fallen Power. However, the most pressing matter now was to first absorb Ah Li’s cultivation feedback! Then, help Chen Changsheng and Ji Fuyao deal with their troubles. Only then would he go to the Dark Void.
Just then, the System’s voice echoed.
“Initiating synchronization of Sixth Disciple’s cultivation!”
Boom! An incredibly vast surge of spiritual energy poured into Lu Xuan’s body, impacting him like a mighty river. The tingling sensation was indescribable. A familiar feeling! His true cultivation began to skyrocket. Four-star Myriad Phase Realm! Five-star Myriad Phase Realm! ...Finally stopping at the early stage of Eight-star Myriad Phase Realm! Invincible! Truly invincible!
Lu Xuan grumbled, “System, I’ve noticed you’ve been slacking off lately. Many times, you haven’t even notified me about Ji Fuyao and Ye Chen’s cultivation feedback.”
The System, with the resentment of a tired worker, replied, “I’ve been working for so long, can’t I get a break? I’m not some beast of burden for a production team!”
Lu Xuan was speechless.
The System continued, “I really need to rest from now on. You’re free to do as you please. The Star Sea is vast, and you are already invincible.”
Lu Xuan chuckled, “Why the sudden melancholy?”
The System fell silent.
Lu Xuan had now refined Sir’s remnant Dao Rhyme, allowing him to perceive almost every blade of grass, every person, and every demon within the Star Sea. His eyes became incredibly enchanting. His Eyes of Insight had automatically upgraded! This was, in fact, merely one of Sir’s abilities! Back in the day, Sir could also take in everything within the entire Star Sea at a glance. However, with the remnant Dao Rhyme, some parts of the Star Sea remained shrouded in darkness. The Eerie Plateau, in particular, was a complete black hole, even darker than the Dark Void. It was filled with eerie power, like layers upon layers of mist, impenetrable even to Lu Xuan’s sight!
Lu Xuan continued to probe the Fallen Star Sea. He saw the Void Kun had already appeared before Chen Changsheng. The two were fighting and retreating. The Void Kun continuously attacked, its Fallen Power transforming into a colossal palm that instantly crushed an ordinary Ancient Ancestor. This left Shenwu Emperor Tianye and the others utterly stunned.
“What’s going on? How did this Void Kun step into the Ancient Ancestor Realm?”
“The last time the Void Kun appeared in the Third Star Ring, it was only in the Myriad Phase Realm!”
“Such a creature is far too terrifying!”
“...”
Lu Xuan then turned his gaze towards Ji Fuyao and Ye Chen’s location. The five of them—Ji Fuyao, Ye Chen, Fang Yan, Luo Lingkong, and Liu Xuan—had already met with the six Innate Ancient Ancestors: Ancient Ancestor Mei, Hansheng, Lie Yuan, Changjing, Red Lotus, and Roushan! The atmosphere was charged with tension! Battle was imminent. They were on a desolate star named Revelation Star.
Lu Xuan withdrew his gaze, then looked at Ah Li and Qingqiu, saying, “Next, let’s go find Fuyao and the others. They’re currently battling Ancient Ancestor Mei.”
“Ancient Ancestor Mei...”
Both Ah Li and Qingqiu’s faces turned icy cold, filled with killing intent. She was Sir’s traitor! They had betrayed the Innate Beings! And turned the Star Sea into its current state.
A moment later, Lu Xuan flicked his sleeve. A surge of spatial power enveloped the three of them. Boom! They vanished from their spot, shooting towards Revelation Star where Ji Fuyao was.
***
Revelation Star.
Ji Fuyao, clad in a fiery red dress, stood with an air of pride, like a stunning flame flower. Around her, a boundless sea of spiritual fire surged, intensely blazing. Beside her, Ye Chen had already summoned his Martial Dao Furnace, his Martial Dao Will immensely powerful, like a raging torrent. Luo Lingkong, Liu Xuan, and Fang Yan had all unleashed Ancient Ancestor-level combat power! Burning their remnant souls! Terrifying power filled the heavens and earth, shaking the firmament.
Not far away, stood Ancient Ancestor Mei, Hansheng, Lie Yuan, Roushan, Changjing, and Red Lotus—the six of them.
Ancient Ancestor Mei, in a long gown, slowly took a few steps, a seductive aura swirling around her. A mocking sneer played on her lips as she scoffed. “Ji Fuyao, Ye Chen, you both died once already. If Sir hadn’t burned himself to inject Reincarnation Power into you, do you truly believe you’d be standing before us now? And we are powerful Innate Ancient Ancestors!”
Ji Fuyao tilted her snow-white neck, shaking her head. “So what if you’re Innate Ancient Ancestors? This time, you’ll be annihilated forever.”
Ancient Ancestor Mei sneered, turning her gaze to Luo Lingkong, Liu Xuan, and Fang Yan. “As for you three, you’re even less worthy of standing before us. Even when Sir was alive, you listened to his teachings and still failed to step into the Ancient Ancestor Realm. It just shows how utterly lacking your talent is! If I recall correctly, during the Star Sea War, you were merely in the Myriad Phase Realm. I never imagined Sir would even inject Reincarnation Power into your bodies, allowing you to reach the Ancient Ancestor Realm in a later life!”
Hearing this, Fang Yan roared, “You stinking bitch! What right do you have to talk about us?!”
Ancient Ancestor Mei sneered, “Ant!”
Fang Yan retorted, “Stinking bitch!”
Ancient Ancestor Mei repeated, “Ant!”
Fang Yan again, “Stinking bitch!”
Ancient Ancestor Mei again, “Ant!”
A moment later, the other Innate Ancient Ancestors couldn’t stand it anymore. One said to Ancient Ancestor Mei, “Why bother arguing with such lowly Acquired Beings? Just kill them!”
Ancient Ancestor Mei chuckled, “You’re right. Go on, pick your opponents.”
Roushan pointed at Fang Yan. “Come here!” Boom! Roushan took a single step, instantly soaring tens of millions of feet away. “Let’s fight over here!”
Fang Yan snorted coldly. “I’ll kill you!”
Changjing chose Luo Lingkong. “Sword cultivator, let’s battle!”
Ancient Ancestor Mei looked at Liu Xuan. “You only possess half of the Illusion Dao. I suppose I’ll have to make an effort to kill you first.” As her voice fell, Liu Xuan, her jade feet treading on divine flower petals, charged directly at Ancient Ancestor Mei.
Ancient Ancestor Red Lotus looked at Ye Chen. “Ye Chen, back then, you ascended to the Ancient Ancestor Realm through the Martial Dao, while I wielded the Power of Time. That battle, we didn’t get to fight to our heart’s content! Come again! I want to see if you can still achieve Martial Dao Breaking Myriad Laws!” Boom! Ye Chen directly soared into the sky, charging towards Ancient Ancestor Red Lotus! “I am the Martial Ancestor! I shall suppress all enemies in this world!”
