The Outside.
The chaotic void was pitch-black as far as the eye could see. Far off in the distance, they could just barely make out a single white dot.
Pilar said it was the sun, but due to the chaotic space's special properties, light couldn't reach their location.
Gou Yuzhan and Yin Shang walked beside them.
They'd come here on Ye Zichen's orders. Even with Pilar here, the Outside God Race was still full of unknowns.
Furthermore!
Pilar had made it very clear. The Outside God Race was strong, so strong that even a demon king like him couldn't help but pale at the mention of their name.
No one knew for sure whether or not the contents of the letter were a trap.
No matter who it was, no one could be sure what would happen once they arrived there, so the only thing they could do was to prepare for the worst in advance.
As for Su Yiyun …..
The Sea Emperor's clone told them that Su Yiyun had left in a hurry three days ago.
If nothing unexpected happened, they'd most likely meet again in the God Race.
"How does it feel to reunite with the God Race so soon?"
As they strolled through the Outer Realms, Ye Zichen smiled at Pilar, who was leading the way.
Pilar told him everything.
Pilar had lost all of his demonic power, gone into hiding in the Time Corridor, and his entire clan had been annihilated.
Of course, he couldn't rule out the possibility that some of his fellow demons might have survived. However, given his current situation, it would be difficult to meet them again.
All of this was because of the Outside God Race.
Or rather, it was because of one person …..
Ye Zichen etched that person's name deeply into his heart. The God King of Destruction: Yale.
Was he in a good mood?
Pilar stopped in his tracks, and an unnatural expression flashed across his face.
The Demon Race had thirteen Demon Kings in total. The previous twelve had protected the Demon Race, but Pilar was the only exception. When the Outside God Race attacked the Demon Race, his incompetence had led to the Demon Race's destruction.
Needless to say, Pilar's resentment towards Yale went without saying.
However, compared to that, he resented his own incompetence even more.
"Hah ….."
With a stiff smile, Pilar diverted the topic.
"I should be asking you that. Our Fiend Race and the God Race have known each other for billions of years. It's not the time for the Foreign God Race to invade the Third Era yet. What's your mood for meeting the Foreign God Race so early? "
"Mixed feelings!" said Ye Zichen.
Pilar's lips curled into a smile. Ye Zichen's answer clearly intrigued her.
"Why do you say that?"
"The Outer-Realm God Race has always been unknown to us. It can be said that we only know of their existence, but we don't know what they are. Their existence only exists in our fantasies."
Pilar quietly listened to Ye Zichen, but didn't interrupt. Ye Zichen continued.
"Being able to see them in advance will at least allow me to have an intuitive understanding of them. Regardless of whether they are strong or weak, it will give me a sense of certainty in my heart, and I won't have to live in fear of the unknown."
"You know, the unknown is always the scariest. If we don't know what it is, the fear in our hearts will continue to grow. "
"I understand."
Pilar smiled and nodded. It wasn't just humans; when any race encountered an unknown situation, they'd take the problem more and more seriously.
It was like covering someone's eyes and asking them to pet an adorable white rabbit. The blindfolded person wouldn't know what was in front of them. They'd become fearful and start imagining all sorts of terrifying things, which only served to increase their fear.
In truth, at the end of the day, this was a lack of confidence in oneself.
If one's heart was strong enough to disregard everything else, then even if there was a lion in front of them, they'd still pet it without the slightest scruple.
"I hope you won't show any signs of fear when you see the God Race."
"I definitely won't," said Ye Zichen. The worry on his face suddenly vanished, and Ye Zichen laughed. "I'm a person who cares a lot about face. When I was young, even if someone older than me tried to hit me and my legs went numb, I'd still glare at them. I care about face!"
"Not bad at all." Pilar smiled and nodded.
Ye Zichen was telling the truth, but there was a hint of a joke in his words.
He wanted to use this method to calm his heart. I didn't want to be so scared that I couldn't move my legs before entering the Outerealm God Race.
Ye Zichen glanced at Gou Yuzhan and Yin Shang. Their mental fortitude seemed a bit better than Ye Zichen's. Before coming, Ye Zichen had already explained everything that might happen to them in the future.
Yet even now, the two of them looked completely relaxed.
Gou Yuzhan, in particular, looked left and right, as if he couldn't stay still.
When he saw their expressions, Ye Zichen looked away, looked at Pilar, and asked the question he'd been wanting to ask for a long time.
"Pilar, did you just say that it's not time to attack the Third Era yet? It seems like you know some inside information? "
The Third Era was coming to an end. That was common knowledge.
However, no one knew when or how it would end. Not even the Three Emperors knew.
From what Pilar had just said, it was obvious he knew when the God Race would attack the Third Era.
"You want to know?" Pilar laughed.
"How could I possibly not want to know?"
"In truth, the Outsiders can't just attack on a whim. We need the Third Era to send them a signal!"
"Whether it's the Demon Race or the God Race, we're both first-level races. We can't proactively declare war on lower-level races, but you can! When you send us a signal, we can attack you. Of course, you can do the same. If we destroy you, everything will naturally be over.
But if you destroy us, you'll be able to take away our race's rank and become a new first-level race. "
"Take away?"
Ye Zichen's eyes widened. He never would've guessed that the clash between the God Race and the First Era would be a competition between races.
The God Race was the protector, while the First Era was the challenger.
However, this signal was definitely not an ordinary declaration of war. Ye Zichen refused to believe that anyone would be so bored as to initiate a war with the God Race.
The only possibility was ….
Pilar chuckled, but before he or Ye Zichen could say anything, three men with burning godheads appeared in the primal chaos around them.
