Ye Kong quickened his steps. As he approached the door, his heart began to beat faster. His hometown, the Azure Purple Planet, was on the other side of the door. His family and friends were there, and there were many people waiting for him to go back and save them. How could Ye Kong not want to go back?
Looking through the gap between the door and the door, he saw a vast starry sky that was filled with chaotic colors. Moreover, it was moving slowly. He could not tell what was going on.
It was obvious that the other side of the door was Cang Bei. Otherwise, there would not be so many goods here. Should he go back or not?
Although Ye Kong's plan was almost complete, his rationality was overwhelmed by his homesickness. Gradually, his thoughts became stronger and stronger.
"I'll go back and have a look before coming back!" Ye Kong said as he took a step forward.
"Hey, don't go in. I'm talking to you." Suddenly, a voice rang behind him. The person who spoke did not seem to be very old. However, his tone was very lazy.
Ye Kong was shocked. Logically speaking, he was invisible, so how could anyone see him?
Ye Kong did not say anything. He quickly turned around and saw that there was no one behind him.
"Stop looking. I'm talking to you, human. You're the first Celestial I've seen in 200,000 years. Not bad. You're brave to barge into the Saint Devil Clan's holy land even though you're just a low-grade Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial," the lazy voice said.
Ye Kong could tell that this person did not have any malicious intent toward him. He quickly said, "Senior, where are you? Please show yourself."
The lazy voice chuckled and said, "You're so unreasonable, little Celestial. You're invisible, but you're asking the senior to show himself. Do you think you're so important?"
Ye Kong smiled wryly and said, "Senior, I'm not showing myself because I'm powerful. It's because my cultivation base is too low. If I show myself, I'm afraid I'll be discovered by the Saint Devil Clan."
"I like the way you talk. Then let me tell you, the reason I don't show myself is not because I'm afraid of those three-headed trash, nor is it because I'm not handsome enough. It's because I don't have a physical body to begin with." The words spoken by the lazy voice were somewhat similar to Ye Kong's. They were both quite nonsensical.
"I like your tone as well. It feels like you're from my hometown." Ye Kong smiled and asked, "Are you a soul, old man?"
"No."
"An illusion?"
"Also not." The lazy voice sighed and said, "Back in those days, I, the Unfettered One, roamed the Upper and Lower Realms unhindered. Many people couldn't do anything to me. But now, I can't return to my hometown. Only a trace of my divine sense is wandering around, and it hasn't been extinguished yet!"
Ye Kong was surprised. He did not expect the person who spoke to him was just a strand of Divine consciousness. One had to know that Divine Consciousness relied on a person's body to survive. If the body was gone, Divine Consciousness would not survive either. Although there were many methods, such as placing the divine sense on the soul, in the primordial spirit, or in special treasures, these methods could preserve the divine sense for a long time. However, there were very few methods that could allow the divine sense to exist without the help of external objects and just float around by itself.
Then the voice said, "I stopped you not because you're handsome or because you have some special ability. I just wanted to remind you because we're both humans. The portal behind you is being affected by external forces. It's in an unstable state. It's easy to go in, but it's hard to say if you can come out. "
When Ye Kong heard this, he felt a chill down his spine. He did not expect this to be the case. No wonder no one came in or out of the portal.
Ye Kong quickly said, "Thank you for saving my life, senior … But may I ask, does this portal lead to the Azure Star? If it does, how can it be stable? "
"You know about the Azure Star?" The lazy voice seemed to be slightly shocked. But he sighed and said, "Seems like you came prepared. Let me tell you, this portal leads to the Azure Star. Every time there's a fight for the Great Light Ruler, the sacred artifact will release a strong force and affect the spatial portal. When the matter with the Great Light Ruler is settled, the portal will return to normal. "
"I see. Thank you, senior." Since the portal would only open until the fight for the Great Light Ruler ended, Ye Kong could stay in the Demon World with peace of mind.
At this moment, the lazy voice sounded even more sleepy. He yawned and said, "Alright, you'd better hurry out. When the Great Light Ruler returns, you'll have nowhere to run … I'm so tired. I'm going to sleep. If I don't take care of myself, this Divine Consciousness will vanish."
This lazy voice kept referring to the Great Light Ruler. Ye Kong could not help but ask, "Senior, one last question. Do you know the Five Elemental Wang Wei, also known as Yan Sigui …"
Before Ye Kong finished speaking, the lazy voice sounded like someone had stepped on its tail. It said in shock, "Who are you?"
Ye Kong thought to himself, It can't really be him, right? He quickly said, "I'm Ye Kong. I'm the successor of the Five Elemental Wanderer."
The lazy voice was no longer lazy. Instead, it fired off a barrage of questions. "Diviner? Earthling? What did you inherit? Was it a cultivation technique or an immortal mansion? Or something else? "
When Ye Kong heard this question, he knew it was the Five Elemental Wanderer. He was overjoyed and quickly bowed. "Greetings, Master. Ye Kong is indeed a Diviner. I come from the same place as the Five Elemental Wanderer. Not only did I inherit Senior's cultivation technique and immortal mansion, but Uncle Ji also gave me that item."
When Ye Kong heard this question, he was sure that this was the Five Elemental Wanderer's Divine Consciousness. Otherwise, if it was someone else, they would not know so much.
The Five Elemental Wanderer's Divine Consciousness was stunned for a while. Then, he laughed heartily and sighed. "It's really fate. I believe that everything has been arranged. I didn't expect that I, the Five Elemental Wanderer, would be able to see my successor. It seems like my ashes returning to my homeland is no longer a dream! Heaven's will, it's all heaven's will! "
When Ye Kong heard him admit it, he beamed with joy. "Master, you really calculated everything. You've been waiting for me here for a long time. Disciple really admires you. I really didn't expect to meet your Divine Consciousness."
The Five Elemental Wanderer sighed. "I didn't calculate it accurately. When I was surrounded and killed by the Demon Gods, I didn't die without a corpse. I still left behind a skeleton. However, those Demon Gods knew that my Divine Sense was amazing and were afraid that I wouldn't be able to recover even after I died. Thus, they brought my skeleton into the Demon Realm and used a spell to confine it. Needless to say, those Demon Gods really thought this through. Otherwise, even if I died, I would have caused them endless trouble. "
"However, since I was confined, I could only wait for my body to turn stiff and petrified. However, I still used my Divine Sense to escape the confinement with a strand of Divine Sense. I floated in this space, hoping that one day, I would meet a descendant who would take my ashes and bring them back to my homeland for a proper burial … Returning to my roots was my last wish. I thought that I would never be able to fulfill it, but I didn't expect that I would get another chance! How could I not be happy about this? "
Ye Kong said, "Don't worry. I don't know where Master's ashes are. I'll collect them now and bring them back to Purple Azure Star for a proper burial."
The Five Elemental Wanderer scolded, "Purple Azure Star isn't my homeland. I want to bury my real roots!"
This time, it was Ye Kong's turn to be shocked. "Master, you want to bury me … Can I still go back?"
"Yes, as long as you complete the Heaven's Will! En, when the time comes, just find a place in Babao Mountain and bury me. "
Ye Kong was stunned. "Master, you're a martyr too."
The Five Elemental Wanderer said angrily, "What? Can't I? Enjoy the treatment of a martyr. "
