Undercurrents

The top forces of the central section of the Heavenly Sun World were all gathered here. Many forces had legacies from ancient times or were secretly supported by ancient experts.

At this moment, on a certain mountain peak where traces of the great battle were still present, more than ten Transcendent Dao realm experts were gathered.

A few of these were the ones who had chased after Chu Xuan.

“Is that man really dead?”

“I don’t know.”

While they were chasing Chu Xuan down, it appeared that he had self-destructed.

They felt that something was wrong, but could not find any traces of Chu Xuan no matter where they looked.

“Have you asked your seniors?”

The people here were tasked with guarding the entrance to the forbidden zone, and each of them hailed from forces that possessed at least a Dao Creation realm expert.

One of them, whose face and figure were blurry, said, “A hundred years ago, a Dao Creation realm expert tried to enter the chaos to investigate. In the end, his Dao was damaged, and his cultivation level almost dropped a realm.”

Hearing this, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.

They were guarding the entrance of the forbidden zone, so they were naturally very curious about the legendary chaos.

Moreover, they also knew that there might be great opportunities hidden in the forbidden zone, including perhaps the opportunity for them to reach the Dao Creation realm.

Dao Creation realm experts were highly-regarded in the Heavenly Sun World, so it was the dream of every single cultivator to become one.

However, they were unable to pass through the void region, as they would be contaminated by a mysterious force that would cause their cultivation to gradually dissipate.

This old man had once taken the risk to enter, but he was contaminated by the mysterious force, which was why he looked so old.

They were very interested in Chu Xuan because he was also a Transcendent Dao realm cultivator, yet could pass through the void region safely.

Furthermore, he had emerged from the forbidden zone, so it was clear that he knew some of its secrets.

Was he someone from the forbidden zone, or had he left the Heavenly Sun World and returned after obtaining a great opportunity in the forbidden zone?

No matter what the situation was, it was a great opportunity for them to learn the secrets of the forbidden zone.

However, now it seemed that even Dao Creation realm experts could not pass through the void region.

“There’s an order from a Dao Supreme realm expert,” the blurry figure continued, “Don’t even think about entering the forbidden zone. Even Dao Creation realm experts can’t leave the Heavenly Sun World.”

“Also, the Dao Supreme realm experts can’t divine who that person is. They’ve already sent out a warning to stop searching.”

The rest of the people present were all silent.

It seemed that this matter was not something they could participate in.

Furthermore, who would dare to disobey the words of a Dao Supreme realm existence?

After a short discussion, they all went their separate ways.

The blurry figure disappeared and entered a section that was in ruins thanks to the great battle back then.

There was an extremely powerful remnant power here that occasionally wreaked havoc on the surroundings.

After the blurry figure entered this section, he headed toward a certain mountain, on which there was a stone house.

An invisible force enveloped the stone house, keeping any foreign powers out.

The blurry figure arrived in front of the stone house.

“Sir, are you certain that he came from the chaos?” he bowed and asked.

After a long while, an ethereal voice came from the stone house. It was impossible to tell if its owner was male or female.

“The Heavenly Sun World is in a unique state at the moment. One can enter it, but cannot leave. With the obstruction of the transcendent laws in place, even Dao Creation realm experts cannot leave.”

“Since he came in from the outside, he naturally came from the chaos.”

“If that’s the case, the other party must be hiding in the Heavenly Sun World, right? Since he can’t return to the chaos now,” the blurry figure continued to ask.

“The same restrictions may not apply to those from the chaos.”

After a long silence, the ethereal voice spoke again, “No matter what, since he came from the chaos, this matter is not something you can interfere with. Just sit back and watch. The time is not right.”

The blurry figure was silent for a long time before he finally asked, “What are you guys planning?”

The stone house remained silent.

The blurry figure waited for a moment, sighed in his heart, and turned to leave.

This time, the other party would not answer either.

In the end, a voice came from the stone house.

“We don’t know either. It’s just that there seems to be someone manipulating this whole situation, so we have to be careful.”

For the first time, there was a hint of helplessness in his voice.

The blurry figure froze, and only recovered after a long time.

Then, he took a deep breath and left quickly.

His heart was unable to calm down for a long time.

Even Dao Supreme realm experts were affected and manipulated by others?

How terrifying was the mastermind behind all of this then?

At the same time, he felt a sense of powerlessness.

If even Dao Supreme realm cultivators could not escape, how could he escape this fate as a mere Dao Creation realm expert?
