This scene deeply shocked Ye Chen and the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor, especially Ye Chen. Hadn't the Primordial Female Saint Lord's divine soul been extinguished? Why was she moving now?
At this moment, it was as if a mythical Emperor and Sovereign had appeared. As the Primordial Female Saint Lord's jade palm slowly pressed down, the entire vast world projection completely collapsed. It could not take form; everything turned to dust, nothing remained.
The nine towering, insurmountable demon mountains were directly severed in the middle, vast amounts of demon blood splattering, a scene of utter terror.
The demonic shadow was suppressed deep within the valley, unable to emerge, roaring in fury yet filled with even greater terror. For it sensed how terrifying the Primordial Female Saint Lord was at this moment, capable of making past, present, and future tremble. It couldn't help but exclaim in horror, "Is it a mythical Emperor and Sovereign!?"
No one answered it. The Primordial Female Saint Lord made only that one move before ceasing all further action. The boundless immortal radiance all retracted, vanishing completely, leaving only a faint dawn light swirling around her body, appearing sacred and extraordinary.
"Jingruo..."
Ye Chen shed tears, wanting to call out, but unfortunately, the Primordial Female Saint Lord made no further movements, still sitting there in meditation.
The phantom of the Battle Great Power also dissipated, transforming into a streak of golden light that shot into the deepest part of the valley before vanishing into dormancy.
Ye Chen had the intention to kill the last wisp of remnant soul of the alien race Demon Sovereign, but at this moment, the Human Sovereign Pagoda transformed into a stream of light and entered his chest. The Primordial Battle Body retracted all its golden light, reverting to its bronze color. Everything completely calmed down; nothing remained, everything had dissipated.
Ye Chen let out a soft sigh. He understood it would be difficult to slay the alien race Demon Sovereign now, for relying on his own strength alone, it would be hard to kill it. If that remnant soul fought with its life on the line, it could likely take him down as well. Thus, it simply wasn't worth the cost.
After thinking this through clearly, even Ye Chen could only sigh helplessly, feeling nothing but helplessness.
However, he approached the Primordial Female Saint Lord. For some unknown reason, he was no longer subjected to her immeasurable pressure and slowly came to a stop.
Arriving before the Female Saint Lord, he gazed silently at that peerless, flawless face, which looked no different from the present era. He stood there quietly, watching with sorrow.
But the only fortunate thing was that the events of the future had not yet occurred. The Primordial Female Saint Lord and a group of his friends were still alive. He still had time to grow, to become stronger.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Ye Chen was slightly startled, for he seemed to see a faint stream of light flash within the Primordial Female Saint Lord's brow.
This made his heart tremble. Within the Mud Pill Palace of the Primordial Female Saint Lord's brow, a dim light had actually flickered into existence, capturing his attention.
Could it be that the future Primordial Female Saint Lord had not completely perished, but still retained a sliver of vitality? Was it because she couldn't be saved in the future that she was sent back to this era?
Ye Chen couldn't help but entertain such thoughts, but he soon shook his head to dismiss them, for it was simply impossible.
The future him was truly supreme and invincible, with the entire world fallen silent. With such means, how could he have sent her back to this era?
Thinking this, his eyes dimmed as he sighed softly. Yet he looked again at the space between the Primordial Female Saint Lord's brows. Unable to resist, he sent out a wisp of Primordial Spirit consciousness, which surprisingly smoothly entered her Mud Pill Palace without any obstruction.
Indeed, it was empty inside. Although her jade body and treasure physique were supremely powerful and overflowing with immortal radiance, her divine soul had been extinguished. Without a Primordial Spirit, how could she be considered alive? Only a peerless fleshly shell remained.
However, within the Mud Pill Palace, a faint, dim light flickered, constantly rising and falling.
Ye Chen's Primordial Spirit consciousness approached, arriving before that light, and he was suddenly astonished.
For this ball of light was extraordinary, actually imbued with supreme law power, surpassing imagination. It was likely that his future self had used Supreme One Emperor laws to empower it.
Because this light came from the future, unlike the Primordial Female Saint Lord whose cultivation was supreme and invincible, and whose body could be considered a Supreme Emperor physique, difficult for heaven and earth to destroy, thus allowing it to endure in this era.
This was merely a remnant piece of information. It enveloped a sheet of black paper, but when Ye Chen looked closely, even he couldn't help but suck in a cold breath.
For the material of this black paper was none other than Abyssal Black Gold, a type of Chaos Immortal Gold. It was used to record crucial information and was further empowered with supreme Emperor laws, all to prevent the causality laws of this era from erasing it.
It was both indestructible Chaos Immortal Gold and empowered by Supreme One Emperor laws, and moreover, preserved within the Primordial Female Saint Lord's supremely powerful treasure body. One could imagine how cautious this was, with layer upon layer of protection.
Yet Ye Chen could not grasp this sheet of Abyssal Black Gold paper. It seemed illusory, difficult for the world to accommodate.
Furthermore, the Abyssal Black Gold paper was covered in cracks, still unable to fully withstand the grinding of this era's causality laws, which had erased half of it. The characters recorded on it were also only half present. Ye Chen could only make out a few words: "Two eras merge, great tribulation shatters, conspiracy begins to appear, the world falls silent, because I am the beginning—"
The characters that followed were missing, having been completely erased by this era's causality laws, leaving nothing behind.
That was the most crucial information. Unfortunately, Ye Chen could only discern that one character.
"Beginning?"
Ye Chen was very puzzled about what this meant, for previously on the River of Time, his future self had also spoken this single character to him. Clearly, it was an extremely key character, but unfortunately, with only one character, its meaning was unclear.
Moreover, the characters that followed were fundamentally impossible to utter. Even someone as powerful as his future self, an invincible Supreme One, peerless in the world, upon speaking them, was met with endless Taboo Immortal Lightning falling, blocking his voice transmission.
This crucial information sent to this era, despite all those protections, still had its most important part forcibly erased. It was clearly of unprecedented importance, which also made Ye Chen very puzzled and curious. What exactly did this represent?
Unfortunately, he truly had not even a single clue and could only sigh helplessly.
Boom—
The paper on the Abyssal Black Gold suddenly erupted with immeasurable black light. The Supreme One Emperor laws actually began to burn away the characters inscribed upon it. In the blink of an eye, they vanished, leaving only a sheet of black-gold divine paper that slowly drifted down into Ye Chen's hand. It was no longer illusory and could be grasped by him.
Without the taboo characters, and with the Supreme One Emperor laws empowering it having forcibly eliminated the causality laws of heaven and earth, the Abyssal Black Gold was allowed to remain.
The paper looked small, but when condensed, it was a fist-sized piece of Abyssal Black Gold.
He knew this was the Immortal Gold his future self had sent him, likely the main material for forging a supreme battle weapon.
