Chapter 158: Chapter 158 : Reaction l
Primal Chaos Realm, One Month Later.
Boom
Pang
Boom
An entire month had passed, and during this time, explosive sounds echoed throughout the Primal Chaos Realm. However, no one could pinpoint their source, as the sounds seemed to come from everywhere. Many tried to identify the individuals fighting based on the aura emanating from the explosions, but only a handful managed to recognize them. Even fewer knew the location of the battle—it could be counted on one hand.
At first, panic spread across the Primal Chaos Realm due to the mysterious explosions. But now, after a full month, people had grown accustomed to them, especially since the Royal-Rank Star Realms had announced they were investigating the matter.
Since the discovery of the Crimson Crack, the Royal-Rank Star Realms had been on high alert, fearful of what the future might hold. The current events only heightened their fears and anxiety. Fortunately, there were some individuals with the knowledge to calm their worries—or at least, that's what they thought.

Eternal Heaven Realm.
"Zhou Xuzi pays his respects to the Great Ancestor," said an old man with a benevolent and loyal appearance. His ordinary look was the only thing notable about him, as no one would bother to remember him after seeing him in a crowd.
However, for those who knew the old man's identity, they wouldn't dare look directly at him, no matter how kind-hearted he appeared. This seemingly ordinary man was none other than Zhou Xuzi, the Realm King of Eternal Heaven Realm—a man who stood unchallenged at the pinnacle of the Primal Chaos Realm.
At this moment, Zhou Xuzi was kneeling respectfully before the shadowy image of an ethereal woman, who seemed like a spirit on the verge of disappearing at any moment.
This image was none other than the Eternal Heaven's Great Ancestor. But she wasn't just the Great Ancestor of Eternal Heaven—she was the one who had gained the recognition of the Eternal Heaven Pearl and founded the Eternal Heaven Realm millions of years ago.
"Zhou Xuzi..." the ethereal woman spoke in a heavy tone, staring at the kneeling old man. "You came a month ago to inquire about the tremors and force fluctuations spreading across the Primal Chaos Realm, didn't you?"
"That's correct. As the Eternal Heaven Realm's Realm King, I cannot ignore any issue that might threaten the Primal Chaos Realm, especially after the appearance of the Crimson Crack a few hundred years ago," Zhou Xuzi replied in a loyal and solemn voice. It seemed that safeguarding the Primal Chaos Realm was his life's mission. "But at that time, the Great Ancestor mentioned that the force waves felt familiar, though you couldn't recall exactly what they were. That's why you wanted to search the memories of the Eternal Heaven Pearl to confirm your suspicions."
"That's right. After repeatedly searching the memories of the Eternal Heaven Pearl, I have finally identified the source of the force waves spreading across the Primal Chaos Realm and the individuals behind them," the Great Ancestor said, her voice heavy with disbelief and uncertainty.
"Are there people in this era who can affect the entire Primal Chaos Realm with just... waves of their power?" Zhou Xuzi exclaimed in a low voice, his face reflecting utter disbelief and doubt. Even though these words came from the Eternal Heaven's Great Ancestor, Zhou Xuzi simply couldn't believe them. These few words were terrifying enough to instill despair in anyone who heard them.
"That's correct. But describing them as being from this era isn't entirely accurate," the Great Ancestor replied in the same heavy tone. However, her spiritual image flickered, clearly still in shock from the information she had uncovered.
"They're not from this era...? Do you mean that True Gods or True Devils survived the catastrophe millions of years ago?!" Zhou Xuzi couldn't control his reaction and shouted, his voice filled with disbelief and denial.
"No, no True Gods or True Devils survived that catastrophe..." the Great Ancestor shook her head with certainty. The memories of the Eternal Heaven Pearl clearly indicated that no True Gods or True Devils had survived the Myriad Tribulation Poison. "But unfortunately, the individuals causing these force waves are even more terrifying than any True God or True Devil."
"..." Upon hearing the Great Ancestor's words, Zhou Xuzi could only look at her with a grim expression, as if he were on the verge of crying. He opened and closed his mouth several times, but his mind couldn't form appropriate words at that moment.
"The individuals fighting are the Reincarnation of the Nirvana Devil Emperor and the Ancestral God..." the Great Ancestor spoke in a choked voice, clearly struggling to say the words without stuttering.
Boom
Upon hearing the Great Ancestor's words, Zhou Xuzi couldn't withstand the shock and collapsed to the ground. His eyes turned completely white, and foam spilled from his mouth. This information was beyond his brain's capacity to process.

Soul Stealing Realm.
A breathtakingly beautiful woman sat on her throne. Her crescent brows and phoenix eyes effortlessly released a boundless bewitching allure that threatened to yank a person's soul out of their body. Her exquisite lips were pink and dewy. A single small glance from her would penetrate a man's soul and topple his will, causing his body to burn up with boundless desire.
This woman was none other than Chi Wuyao, known as the Queen of the Northern Region. But now, she was staring into the distance with empty eyes, as if gazing at something nonexistent.
"I never expected to be fortunate enough to see you reincarnated," Chi Wuyao murmured. Soon, her empty gaze was replaced by dreamy, playful eyes. "But I didn't expect you to be right under my nose all this time. Yet, you suppressed your spiritual fluctuations so well that I couldn't even sense you."
While Zhou Xuzi was utterly shocked by the revelation of a battle between the Reincarnation of the Nirvana Devil Emperor and the Ancestral God, causing him to faint, Chi Wuyao was smiling playfully, thinking of mischievous things to do to Yu Tian once his battle with the Ancestral God was over.
As for the idea of Yu Tian losing to the Ancestral God? She didn't entertain such a thought. She possessed a fragment of the Nirvana Devil Emperor's soul, and although it was only a small piece, it contained an overwhelming amount of information. Because of this, she knew better than anyone else just how terrifying Yu Tian—or the Nirvana Devil Emperor—was, especially with his knowledge of realms beyond the Primal Chaos Realm.
For others in the Primal Chaos Realm, there was only the Primal Chaos Realm, with no traces of life outside it. But for Chi Wuyao, this wasn't the case. By inheriting a fragment of the Nirvana Devil Emperor's soul, she had accessed parts of his memories related to other realms beyond the Primal Chaos Realm. However, she kept this information to herself, knowing that the Nirvana Devil Emperor's soul had reincarnated repeatedly in the Primal Chaos Realm and even in other realms. Although the memories weren't entirely clear, they were undoubtedly real. There were many things in the Primal Chaos Realm that shouldn't have existed there, and the simplest example was the Woeful Poison Body. This was something that didn't originate in the Primal Chaos Realm but existed in another realm within the Nirvana Devil Emperor's memories. Yet, at some point, a person with the Woeful Poison Body suddenly appeared.
After researching records dating back hundreds of thousands of years, Chi Wuyao had identified a few individuals who were likely reincarnations of the Nirvana Devil Emperor. They could use the Nirvana Devil Emperor's abilities, as well as powers that existed in other realms unknown to anyone except the Nirvana Devil Emperor—who, in truth, wasn't originally from the Primal Chaos Realm.
This was why Chi Wuyao wasn't overly concerned about the battle between Yu Tian and the Ancestral God. Yu Tian had reincarnated countless times over millions of years and undoubtedly possessed numerous trump cards that would allow him to avoid defeat—or even achieve victory—against someone like the Ancestral God.
