Ye Xuan's eyes grew abnormally deep as Aeon Shadow approached.
He could sense that Aeon Shadow wasn't lying to him. With his current cultivation and years of experience, Aeon Shadow couldn't possibly play any tricks on him. Aeon Shadow couldn't afford to pay such a price.
Of course, Ye Xuan had long since seen through Aeon Shadow's intentions. However, in the face of Ye Xuan's absolute power, Ye Xuan couldn't care less.
Ye Xuan was completely immersed in the Land of Genesis, the Yore-Wilds he was so familiar with.
After a good while, Ye Xuan snapped out of his reverie and looked at Aeon Shadow. "Your secret does interest me. I can agree to your request."
Ye Xuan's words put Aeon Shadow and Gai Tianyuan at ease.
"Remember, you must protect Sky-Burying Palace until the end of the Chaosverse. If you dare play tricks behind my back, I'll let you know what it means to wish you were dead."
Hum!
Ye Xuan vanished without a trace, as if he'd never been there in the first place. His ability to shift heaven and earth caused Aeon Shadow's heart to sink.
"Master, it's time to face reality."
Gai Tianyuan sighed, hoping that Aeon Shadow would pull himself together.
"Hah!"
Aeon Shadow chuckled self-deprecatingly. "I should've guessed that he's the ultimate. If I'd known, I wouldn't have schemed against him in the first place. Now I'm in this state.
"But Tianyuan, if it weren't for you, I'd be dead by now. If you're willing, we'll no longer be master and servant. I'd like to accept you as my personal disciple. What do you think?"
"Esteemed master, disciple Gai Tianyuan kowtows to you."
Gai Tianyuan knelt down and kowtowed, causing Aeon Shadow to nod in agreement. However, the loneliness in his eyes didn't fade away.
In truth, he'd chosen to live mostly because of Gai Tianyuan. He'd lived long enough.
When he learned of the difference between him and Ye Xuan, he'd lost all hope. All he wanted to do was pass on his combat arts to Gai Tianyuan.
… …
The Primordial World!
Ye Xuan sat cross-legged on top of the dome, his eyes slightly closed as he calmly sensed everything in the Primeval World. Whether it was the changes in spiritual energy or the birth of laws, nothing could escape his detection.
Seven days later!
Ye Xuan slowly opened his eyes. A trace of doubt flashed through his eyes, because he did not sense any abnormalities in the Untainted World.
Apart from the fact that the spiritual energy here was slightly thinner than that of the Chaotic Universe, there was nothing special about it, let alone any so-called mysterious power.
"Did he lie to me?" Ye Xuan's eyes turned cold.
However, in the next moment, Ye Xuan overturned his thoughts. After all, Aeon Shadow wouldn't dare do such a thing. Aeon Shadow knew better than anyone the consequences of deceiving him.
However, Ye Xuan had sensed almost every inch of the Great Desolate World several times. He could not have missed even a single grain of sand.
To put it bluntly, with Ye Xuan's current cultivation base and state, he could find out everything in this tiny primitive world with only one thought.
No!
There had to be something wrong!
Ye Xuan's eyes were deep. His intuition told him that he had missed something, or that he was searching in the wrong direction.
In terms of cultivation, Aeon Shadow was no match for him, but he was a taboo character. Given his cultivation base, he could explore the Great Desolate World in the blink of an eye.
Even he had searched for countless years without discovering the source of this mysterious power. This proved that this mysterious power was hidden extremely deeply.
If the Great Desolate World could exist even after the Great Destruction of the Chaotic Universe, how could this mysterious power be so easily discovered?
Ye Xuan no longer sensed the Great Desolate World. Instead, he frowned in thought. Even if he continued to sense the Great Desolate World, he would only be wasting time.
"To be able to exist for so long after the Great Samsara of the Primeval Chaos means that this power does not fear the Great Samsara of the Chaotic Universe. Then this power is …?"
"Mm?"
Ye Xuan was muttering to himself. When he said that, his eyes suddenly froze because he'd finally thought of a possibility.
"Someone who can shock the heavens and destroy the earth?"
Ye Xuan murmured in shock as his train of thought suddenly became clear.
If there were people that even the Great Samsara of the Chaotic Universe couldn't destroy, then it had to be a small group of people who could shock the heavens and destroy the earth.
Since the Great Desolate World could exist for so long, could it be that there were people who could shock the heavens and destroy the earth?
And this was the so-called mysterious power!
When Ye Xuan thought of this, all the hairs on his body stood on end. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was a possibility.
It was also at this moment that Ye Xuan thought of something extremely astonishing.
He and Liu Baiyi!
That's right! It was him and Liu Baiyi.
Ye Xuan had been born in the mortal world, and so had Liu Baiyi. The two of them had met in the mortal world, and it was only later that they had come to the Great Desolate World and then the Chaotic Universe.
In his previous life, he had been 'Famine', known as the number one expert of the primordial era.
In his previous life, Liu Baiyi had been Gu Taichu, known as the number one expert of the Primeval Era.
These two people were a small group of people who could shock the heavens and destroy the earth, but why did they appear in the mortal world when they were born?
Neither Ye Xuan nor Liu Baiyi had been born in the Great Desolate World, nor anywhere in the Chaotic Universe. Why were they born in the mortal world?
"The mortal world? It's actually the mortal world? "
Suddenly, when Ye Xuan thought of this, he was horrified. He had actually forgotten his homeland!
But a guess that made his heart tremble also appeared!
If there was a person who could shock the heavens and destroy the earth hidden in the mortal world, then had he been known by this person all along the way?
Hiss!
Ye Xuan was terrified when he thought about it. He even sucked in a breath of cold air, and beads of sweat faintly appeared on his forehead.
When he was a teenager, he suffered from a terminal illness and met Yuan Ling on Heartbreak Mountain. Step by step, he had come to where he was today.
There was a person who could shock the heavens and destroy the earth watching him, but he did not know who this person was.
Ye Xuan's scalp went numb, and all the hair on his body stood on end. He had risen from the mortal world and stepped onto the peak of the universe step by step, but the true terror was actually hidden in the mortal world?
The firmament froze, and the void came to a standstill!
Ye Xuan's expression was extremely heavy. He could already conclude that the mysterious power that the eternal shadow spoke of was definitely a person who could shock the heavens and destroy the earth.
And this person was definitely hiding in the mortal world!
Whoosh!
Ye Xuan slowly exhaled a turbid breath. He quickly calmed himself down. He could not let this matter affect his temperament.
A person who could shock the heavens and destroy the earth!
The eternal universe had only produced eight people. Now, three of them were known. As for the remaining five, Ye Xuan knew two of them according to Desolation's inherited memories.
Even he did not know the details of the other three because he had only inherited one memory from Desolation, and Desolation had left behind three memories. Ye Xuan's memories were not complete, only one-third of them. As for who these three people were, Ye Xuan had no idea.
