Chapter 12789 Reverse Star Beast
The moon represents purity, nobility, wishes, beauty, and other powers; it is also a beacon of light.
Even if the sun falls, as long as the moon still exists in the world, there will still be light, and it will not be completely extinguished in chaos.
Soon, Ye Chen brought Xia Ruoxue to Jinxin City.
The people of Jinxin City were surprised and puzzled when they saw the remaining aura of disaster dissipate. Then, when they saw Xia Ruoxue arrive, a commotion broke out among the crowd.
"This is... the Great Moon Goddess!"
"Is he the progenitor of the lunar pathway, the legendary Great Moon God?"
"Didn't she perish? Could she have been resurrected today?"
"How come she's with the Lord of Reincarnation?"
……
Countless exclamations rang out; Xia Ruoxue's arrival brought a tremendous shock to everyone.
The people of the former Moon District had migrated to Golden Heart City after the disaster. When they saw Xia Ruoxue arrive in person, they were even more excited and rushed forward, shouting "Great Moon Goddess!"
Looking at the people in the Moonlight District, Xia Ruoxue felt a strong sense of familiarity.
Even though it was the first time she had met them, she felt as if these people were her subjects.
These are remnants of the Great Moon God's memories. Xia Ruoxue inherited the Great Moon God's lineage and its karma.
As Xia Ruoxue and Ye Chen landed, the people of the Moon District, led by Leng Yuexi and Leng Yueyao, held hands and surrounded the two, laughing loudly.
Before long, Granny Xinduan, Venerable Bailian, and other high-ranking individuals sensed the divine secret and rushed over, followed by Ren Feifan and Venerable Panwu.
Ren Feifan still had faint injuries on his body, obviously left from the fierce battle with the First Tyrant.
Panwu Tianzun was a burly man, surrounded by a rich earth energy, and had a calm expression.
Upon seeing Ye Chen and Xia Ruoxue, a hint of joy flashed in Ren Feifan's eyes. Then, his gaze fell on Xia Ruoxue, his pupils contracted, and a deep shock appeared on his face.
"This...this is the aura of the lunar pathway?"
As a Heavenly Pillar Realm expert, he was extremely sensitive to the primordial power of heaven and earth. The lunar power on Xia Ruoxue's body was vast and pure, carrying ancient Daoist charm. It was clearly the power of the Moon Path Ancestor level, which shocked him greatly.
Ye Chen said, "Senior Ren, Ruoxue is actually the reincarnation of the Great Moon Goddess, and has inherited all of the Great Moon Goddess's power."
"The reincarnation of the Great Moon Goddess?"
Ren Feifan paused, seemingly lost in thought.
Ye Chen then asked, "How did your battle with the First Tyrant end? It's wonderful that you've returned safely."
Ren Feifan said, "I used the power of the Destruction God and the Great Heavenly Emperor's path to fight to the death with that First Tyrant, but that guy, who wields the Yin Chapter, is also extremely powerful."
"I fought him for several days, and we were evenly matched until Panwu Tianzun came to my aid, and I was able to defeat him."
"I'm slightly injured, but it's nothing serious."
Ye Chen breathed a slight sigh of relief, then asked, "What about the Myriad Transformations Golden Mother and the Crescent Moon?"
He thought of the crescent moon, which was resisting the Myriad Transformations Golden Mother, but he didn't know what the outcome would be.
Ren Feifan's expression darkened slightly as he said, "That Arc Moon Fairy has been suppressed by the Myriad Transformations Golden Mother. The Myriad Transformations Golden Mother said she would hold some kind of ceremony to refine her."
"Now the Myriad Transformations Golden Mother has torn up the contract with the Great Sun Lapis Lazuli Pure Land and is launching a large-scale invasion of the Pure Land, aiming to become the new blazing sun. The situation there is extremely serious."
Ye Chen said, "Is that so?"
He immediately became worried, never expecting that Arc Moon had been suppressed and captured by the Myriad Transformations Golden Mother, and was even about to be refined.
Ren Feifan shook his head and said, "We can't worry about things over there for now."
"The Split Wolf on your body is the real danger."
“I’ve heard Panwu Tianzun say that going to the Shayao District to seek a way to suppress human evil with heavenly evil is a viable option.”
"I've decided to personally take you to the Sha Yao District."
The cause and effect of the Split Wolf is no small matter. Ren Feifan plans to personally take Ye Chen to the Shayao District to seek a way to break the deadlock.
Xia Ruoxue said, "Senior Ren, I'll go too."
Ren Feifan glanced at Xia Ruoxue and nodded slightly, humming in agreement.
Xia Ruoxue now controls the Moon Path, is the Great Moon Goddess, and possesses powerful combat abilities, which can assist her in battle.
Ye Chen said, "What about the Myriad Transformations Golden Mother..."
He was still worried about Arc Moon, and also somewhat worried about Chief Xindan.
Ren Feifan said, "After we resolve the current matter, we'll return to the Great Sun Glazed Pure Land."
They have already incurred the enmity of the Golden Mother of Myriad Transformations and cannot stand idly by while her power grows.
At that moment, everyone returned to the council hall of Golden Heart City to discuss the next steps.
In the hall, Venerable Bailian took out a scroll and handed it to Ye Chen, saying, "Lord of Reincarnation, I have compiled the intelligence on the Shayao District, and it is all here."
Ye Chen took the scroll, unfolded it, and saw countless densely packed characters that detailed the situation in the Shayao District.
Ren Feifan and Panwu Tianzun sat quietly; they had clearly read the intelligence.
Venerable Bailian said, "This Shayao District is located below the Nine Luminaries Burning Star Sea. It can be said to be the land beneath the abyss, the original area of the Nine Luminaries Burning Star Sea, and an ancient land through which the Devourers passed."
"Legend has it that the sacred relic of the Devourer Path—the Reverse Hatchery Egg—is located there."
"The Reverse Hatching Egg?" Ye Chen frowned as he looked at the records on the scroll. "Is this Reverse Hatching Egg also the progenitor of the Devourer Path?"
He saw that the information on the scroll contained many bizarre and terrifying details.
The Devourer Path is one of the twelve Ancient God Paths.
The Fiend Zone is an ancient site along the Devourer Path, and even the sacred artifact of that path, known as the "Reverse Hatching Egg," is located there.
Even this reverse-hatched egg devoured the progenitor himself!
Ren Feifan, who was standing to the side, said, "That's right. I went to the Shayao District to test my sword before and also glimpsed many mysterious causes and effects."
"The so-called Devourer Path is essentially about constantly devouring all things in heaven and earth, and the flesh and blood of all living beings, to strengthen one's own power and ultimately achieve the grand ambition of creation."
"The name of the ancestor of this path has long been lost in the river of time. No one knows his origin. All that is known is that his strength back then was extremely terrifying, almost touching the realm of creation."
"However, the Devouring Ancestor ultimately failed to create the world, possibly because he was touched by the 'Curse of Chaos,' and finally hid inside an egg."
All those who dream of creating the world will encounter the "Curse of Chaos" when their power grows to a certain level, generating strong thoughts of self-destruction.
This is a curse set by the progenitor of chaos to prevent anyone from surpassing him.
Ren Feifan speculated that the Devouring Ancestor might have triggered the Chaos Curse, and he continued:
"...That egg was a reverse-hatched egg."
"At that time, the Devouring Ancestor had already foreseen that his path of creation would eventually fail, and even triggered the Chaos Curse, which led him to have thoughts of self-destruction."
"In order to preserve his original nature, he hid himself inside the egg and fell into a deep sleep, waiting for the day when he could be revived."
“Normally, incubation requires the nourishment of pure spiritual energy, but this Devouring Ancestor does the opposite. It needs to absorb all the darkness, chaos, and malevolent energy in the world in order to slowly incubate. Therefore, this egg is called the Reverse Incubation Egg.”
"The reason he gave up creation back then was because he realized that the power of chaos was too great to be defeated."
"All the laws and order in this world are just illusions, just a few waves that occasionally splash up in the sea of ignorance."
"Therefore, he wanted to give up creation and instead transform himself into the Chaos Demon Emperor, prophesying that once he absorbed enough dark chaotic energy and broke out of his shell, he would become the true Lord of Chaos and control all things in heaven and earth."
Ren Feifan's words subtly touched upon the essence of the workings of heaven and earth, and everyone listened with solemnity.
Ren Feifan paused for a moment, then continued:
"Later, Tai Chu discovered the existence of the reverse-hatched egg. Knowing that once this egg hatched, it would bring annihilation to the world, he wanted to destroy it."
"But at that time, the Primordial One was engaged in a fierce battle with the Abyss and was unable to spare enough power, so the Reverse Hatching Egg was not destroyed."
"However, the ancient land where the Reverse Hatchery Egg was located was sunk by the Primordial Strike. The cultivators in the ancient land suffered heavy casualties, and the evil energy and essence blood condensed to form the current Fiend Zone."
"The current Shayao District is located below the Nine Luminaries Burning Star Sea, which was once the territory of the Primordial Era and still retains the Primordial Spiritual Light. The Holy Light Covenant Hall is also located here."
"Nowadays, the sky above the Shayao District is shrouded in a layer of 'vengeful shroud,' a spectacle left over from that great battle years ago."
"That sky can corrupt the minds of living beings and distort their souls. Ordinary cultivators, once they step in, will soon be corrupted by the baleful aura and become monsters who only know how to kill. Only those with special magical artifacts or those with profound cultivation can stay there for a long time."
"Moreover, the Sha Yao Zone is extremely dangerous, involving many complex causes and effects such as the Devourer Path, the Reverse Hatched Egg, and the Primordial Afterglow."
"As far as I know, there are four powerful forces over there: Starbone Island, Curse Burning Island, Fiend Sword Island, and Soul Burial Island. None of these four forces are simple."
Ye Chen listened to Ren Feifan's words and looked at the scroll of information in his hand, then fell into deep thought.
Without a doubt, the Sha Yao zone is very dangerous, with complex and intertwined causes and effects.
Stepping into such a place is unpredictable, with the outcome uncertain.
Ren Feifan asked, "So, Ye Chen, have you decided to go?"
After thinking for a moment, Ye Chen said, "It wouldn't hurt to try my luck."
He can no longer find the White Tiger Emperor and the Yellow Dragon Emperor, and even if he were to excavate the remains of the Goddess of Wishes and use the power of wishes to heal the wounds of the Split Wolf, he might not succeed.
Ye Chen used the method of the gate to deduce on his own and found that although the Sha Yao area was dangerous, it was a way out, so he had no choice but to take the risk.
Ren Feifan said, "Alright, let's rest for a day and set off tomorrow."
“I will personally take you there. Our main purpose on this trip is to use the Heavenly Fiend to suppress the Human Fiend. We should try to avoid conflicts with the local forces and, more importantly, not to easily touch the Reverse Hatching Egg, lest we bring trouble upon ourselves.”
The next morning, as the first rays of dawn pierced through the clouds over Jinxin City, Ye Chen, Ren Feifan, and Xia Ruoxue were already fully prepared to depart.
Ren Feifan glanced at the two of them, his brows furrowing slightly, and said, "Ye Chen, the murderous aura of the Split Wolf on you is too glaring."
"The fluctuations of my destructive divine authority are also very easy to attract attention. If the local forces notice me when I go to the Shayao District, it will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble."
Ye Chen nodded. He could also sense the violent aura emanating from his own body. Even if he tried to suppress it, he could not hide the fierceness that had penetrated to the very core of his being.
Ren Feifan then looked at Xia Ruoxue: "Fortunately, Miss Ruoxue is here. Relying on her lunar pathway aura, we might be able to conceal the aura on our bodies."
"Huh? Me?"
Xia Ruoxue felt a little awkward after hearing this, but then her experience as the Great Moon Goddess in her previous life gave her confidence.
She composed herself and said, "It is possible, but even with my full power, I can only conceal it for seven days at most."
"Seven days is enough." Ren Feifan nodded slightly.
"Okay, I'll give it a try." Xia Ruoxue no longer hesitated, formed a hand seal, and released the bright moonlight, enveloping Ye Chen and Ren Feifan.
Soon, the murderous aura emanating from Ye Chen and Ren Feifan was concealed by an invisible moonlight, making them appear completely normal from the outside.
Even if someone with ulterior motives were to investigate, they would only be able to tell that they are descendants of the Great Moon God and citizens of the Moon District.
After concealing themselves, the three bid farewell to the people of Jin Yao District, their figures flashing as they transformed into three streaks of light and left Jin Yao District.
Meanwhile, Panwu Tianzun, Xinduan Popo, Bailian Zunzhe, and others stayed behind in the Jinyao District.
After leaving the Golden District, the three did not take a flying boat, but went straight into the Nine Luminaries Burning Star Sea in their physical bodies.
Now that Xia Ruoxue is here, her moonlight is the ultimate protection, and there is no need to rely on the flying boat for protection anymore.
As they ventured deeper, the three passed through the surface of the Nine Luminaries Burning Star Sea and arrived at the world beneath the Abyss Sea.
That's the territory of the Shayao District, the land beneath the abyss, the ancient land through which the Devourers pass.
As they traveled through the world beneath the abyss, the atmosphere between heaven and earth grew increasingly cold and gloomy, and spiritual energy was gradually replaced by dense malevolent energy. After the three of them passed through a layer of hazy sky, they had completely entered the territory of the Fiend Zone.
The scene before me was terrifying.
The entire world was shrouded in a thick, malevolent sky curtain. Beneath the curtain, not a ray of sunlight could be seen, and only dark red malevolent energy flowed between heaven and earth.
The distant mountains were barren and devoid of any vegetation, and from time to time, mournful howls echoed from the depths of the mountain valleys, sending chills down one's spine.
On the ground, there were dried bones everywhere, some belonging to cultivators and some to ferocious beasts. The air was filled with a pungent smell of decay, blood, and malevolence.
Ye Chen frowned, sensing the dense aura of celestial calamity surrounding him, and turned to Ren Feifan to ask:
"Senior Ren, the method you mentioned for Heavenly Fiends to suppress Human Fiends, do you mean I should directly absorb the calamities of heaven and earth here?"
Ren Feifan waved his hand and said, "No, there's no need for that, and we don't have enough time anyway."
"The Great Dao Origin within you is reviving. In a month at most, your corpse will regain its vitality. At that time, the Splitting Wolf will definitely seize the opportunity to possess you. You will not have time to slowly devour the Heavenly Fiend."
He paused, then continued, "When I came to the Shayao District to test my sword before, I discovered a ferocious beast called the Reverse Star Beast."
"This beast was born from the convergence of the evil energy of heaven and earth, and it is extremely powerful. More importantly, it also devoured the Creation Reverse Star Lamp of the Devourer Path."
"If you can kill this beast and devour it, you will accumulate enough Heavenly Fiend to suppress the Human Fiend within you."
"Moreover, that Reverse Star Lamp also contains some power to reverse cause and effect, which will greatly benefit your Taoist cultivation."
"The Reverse Star Beast?" A glint of light flashed in Ye Chen's eyes as he asked, "Where is this ferocious beast?"
He dared to fight any beast, no matter how ferocious, as long as the threat of the Splitting Wolves could be eliminated.
"It's on Burial Soul Island, one of the four major powers."
Ren Feifan raised his hand and pointed to an island shrouded in malevolent energy in the distance: "I have seen traces of it on Burial Soul Island before, and it must still be there now. Let's set off for Burial Soul Island now."
“Okay!” Ye Chen nodded. Since Ren Feifan was leading the operation, he was naturally happy to have some free time and let Ren Feifan lead the way.
The three of them moved and immediately flew towards Burial Soul Island.
The closer one gets to Burial Soul Island, the denser the malevolent aura in the air becomes, and the clearer the mournful roar grows.
As the three arrived at the outer perimeter of Burial Soul Island, they felt a powerful and terrifying aura of malevolence rushing towards them; it was the aura of the Reverse Star Beast.
That aura was violent and chilling, carrying a destructive power that made one tremble.
What's even more surprising is that on Burial Soul Island, every household hangs white banners, and everyone is dressed in mourning clothes. The cultivators on the island all have sorrowful faces and wear mourning bands on their heads, and the air is filled with a heavy atmosphere of grief.
"Huh? What's going on?"
Ren Feifan was taken aback when he saw this.
Ye Chen and Xia Ruoxue were also quite puzzled, not knowing what had happened on Burial Soul Island, that every household was dressed in mourning clothes.
Ren Feifan quickly calculated with his fingers, secretly deducing the situation, and then his expression changed drastically. He said:
"It seems that the Reverse Star Beast suddenly went berserk yesterday, broke through the restrictions of Burial Soul Island, and devoured the island's lord, the Bone-Eating Demon Lord. Most of the island's elites were also killed in the process of trying to stop it. Now the entire island is observing mourning for the Bone-Eating Demon Lord."
Ye Chen and Xia Ruoxue were shocked upon hearing this.
Ren Feifan's expression also darkened: "I have fought against the Bone-Eating Demon Lord before. His strength is extremely powerful. I never expected that he would be devoured by the Reverse Star Beast."
"It seems that the terror of this Reverse Star Beast far exceeds my expectations."
Xia Ruoxue asked softly, "Senior Ren, should we still go and fight the Reverse Star Beast? It can even devour the Bone-Eating Demon Lord. Even if the three of us join forces, we might not be its match."
Ren Feifan pondered for a moment and said, "Go, we must go!"
"Since we're already here, we can't leave empty-handed."
He paused, then added, "However, we don't need to rush into action. I vaguely sense that besides the three of us, there are outsiders who have broken into Burial Soul Island."
"For now, let's wait and see what happens, see what their intentions are, and then find an opportunity to strike. Perhaps we can reap the benefits without lifting a finger."
