Kui Yao, ranked below the Dark Night Saint Venerable.

Before the Dark Night Saint Venerable returned to the Wufu Divine Palace, he was always the first Saint Venerable of the Wufu Divine Palace, unshakable by anyone.

But after the Dark Night Saint Venerable's return, this title no longer belonged to Kui Yao; all the glory and spotlight were stolen by the Dark Night Saint Venerable.

Since then, Kui Yao held some resentment towards the Dark Night Saint Venerable. Strong-minded, he wanted to surpass the Dark Night Saint Venerable through cultivation, to tell everyone that he, Kui Yao, is the strongest!

Kui Yao glanced at the Dark Night Saint Venerable, the latter merely cast an indifferent glance at him, that disdainful look made Kui Yao's fist involuntarily clench.

"Kui Yao, calm your mind, and eliminate all distractions. Ahead of you is reincarnation; remember, regardless of any interference, you must hold firm to your belief and walk all the way to the other side of reincarnation, understand?" Emperor Shu Zi admonished.

"I understand, Master!" Kui Yao replied confidently with a nod.

I'm the former first Saint Venerable of Wufu Divine Palace, so what if the Dark Night Saint Venerable is stronger than me now?

Soon enough, the title of the first Saint Venerable will return to my hands!

"Go, enter the Core of Chaos."

With a wave of Emperor Shu Zi's hand, Kui Yao's body rose uncontrollably into the air, approaching the Core of Chaos.

The five other Great Emperor Realm individuals joined forces to perform several luminous hand seals to unravel the grand array, allowing Kui Yao's body to touch the illusory flame, his whole being immersed in the Core of Chaos like a clay ox in the sea.

"Crossing reincarnation will take some time; it could be as short as a hundred years, or as long as ten thousand years. You remaining individuals should not be idle either. This place, being near the Core of Chaos, houses all the resources needed for cultivation. You should seize the time to cultivate well!"

"Yes!"

There was no need for Emperor Shu Zi to say more; they had long been eager to start cultivating.

The power of laws here surged like waves. If the outside world was a small stream, the laws here were an ocean! And they were immersed in this boundless ocean of laws, how could they not seize such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

Wang Xu sat cross-legged in cultivation.

His law realm had already reached perfection; his realm power and soul power, almost unable to advance further.

But he discovered that within the power emanating from the Core of Chaos, there was actually the constant force he most desired!

Constant force, unlike any other power.

It is like a fusion of realm power, law power, and soul power.

Whether Saint Venerable, Ancestor, or Great Emperor, constant force can heavily wound them, making even those with the sacred body, ancestral body, or emperor body unable to quickly recover in a short time.

"Constant force... It seems the Core of Chaos is indeed the origin of everything." Wang Xu recalled many things.

The first time encountering the massive constant force was during a celestial tribulation.

The celestial tribulation, born from chaos, emerged from the Core of Chaos and could seriously wound or even kill any cultivator.

The second time was the heaven-shocking secret collection of ancient people.

The right hand, the left foot, the body, all parts obtained from gulping silence, Wang Xu acquired a large amount of constant force from it.

"Ancient people have always used constant force for cultivation. This signifies that during ancient times, the world of chaos was filled with constant force, unlike the thinness it displays today," Wang Xu thought to himself, "And the rumor that 'Chaos originates from the Ganges River' is also proven; the Core of Chaos contains this special power of constant force, indeed greatly associated with the Ganges River."

"Perhaps... there might actually be living beings in the Ganges River."

Wang Xu remembered what You Ji had mentioned before: the ancient people served beside the Ganges River and listened to the ancient secret technique.

At the same time, he remembered earlier, when Master Desolate Fury Ancestor led his soul out of his body to witness the grand existence of the Ganges River.

During the resurrection of his family, a massive azure hand with four fingers obstructed them, forcing Desolate Fury Ancestor to choose to burn his soul in exchange for greater power.

Recalling past events, Wang Xu became even more convinced that on the other side of the Ganges River, there surely exists a form of life, just that they had never encountered it.

"Forget it, now is not the time to ponder whether there is life in the Ganges River. I should seize the time to absorb this constant force!" Wang Xu dismissed the distracting thoughts, vigorously absorbing the constant force spilling from the Core of Chaos to nurture his right hand, left foot, and body.

"Gu Luo... Gu Luo... why can't I remember this name?"

While Wang Xu was cultivating, on the other side, Emperor Shu Zi was engrossed in contemplation.

Emperor Shu Zi rarely paid such attention to a junior.

But this matter was too bizarre.

A person he had never met brought him such a strong sense of causation.

This is by no means what the Rebellion Great Emperor described: a faint causal connection that everyone experiences.

"Wait a minute! Could it be possible that he is the thirteenth person I've been searching for?!" Emperor Shu Zi suddenly had this thought flash through his mind.

However, he quickly denied it.

"No, I have already deduced it before; if it were really him, how could I not have any sense of it at all?" Emperor Shu Zi shook his head.

He might not have utmost faith in his own strength.

But in the art of deduction, he has unparalleled confidence.

Even compared to Mi Yin, the only one who has integrated the Time Origin, he holds confidence.

This illustrates the profoundness of Emperor Shu Zi's acumen in the art of deduction.

"Forget it, causation ever remains unclear and cannot be thoroughly understood. Perhaps some fortuitous encounter with Gu Luo left a causal impression, in which case, after completing Ancestral Transformation, I shall provide him with an opportunity."

Treating a little fellow who has fate with himself, the Great Emperor does not mind giving him some opportunity.

...

Wang Xu had no idea that unknowingly, he had escaped a disaster.

He focused entirely, continuously absorbing the Constant Force, letting the three Heaven-Shocking Secret Collections become more integrated with his flesh body.

The benefit this brought him was a significant reduction in the cost when he used these three Heaven-Shocking Secret Collections.

The more they merged with his flesh body, the more they became a part of Wang Xu.

Once any one of the Heaven-Shocking Secret Collections completely becomes a part of Wang Xu's flesh body, he will no longer need to consume Life Force, vast Power of Laws, Sacred Qi, and so on, effortlessly wielding its power with a wave of his hand.

By then, possessing an Ancient Flesh Body, Wang Xu's power would increase not just onefold but perhaps tenfold, a hundredfold!

Time whisked by like this.

Twelve thousand years later.

Rumble~~

A gigantic sound erupted from within the Core of Chaos, awakening all the peak geniuses who were cultivating.

All the Great Emperors from Kedan also looked up towards the Core of Chaos.

Emperor Shu Zi smiled: "He succeeded."

Above the void, an unadorned and simple stone stele descended from the sky, landing within the Core of Chaos.

This is the Ancestor Stele.

A flash of fervor swept through the eyes of all the peak geniuses.

The phenomenon of achieving the Ancestor Realm is the descent of the Ancestor Stele. Once the Ancestor Stele descends, it signifies the birth of a person of the Ancestor Realm in this Chaotic Cosmos.

"The first one to go in succeeded?" Wang Xu was filled with anticipation.

Soon, from within the illusory flames, stepped out a person emitting an extremely immense ancestral aura.

It was Kui Yao.

Kui Yao's face at this moment was filled with vigor, sensing the transformation of his power, completely different from his previous Saint Venerable Realm self.

Now, he could easily defeat any of the Saint Venerable Realm geniuses present!

This is one of the great benefits of becoming the Ancestor Realm.

"Kui Yao thanks the Great Emperors for their nurturing grace!" Kui Yao sincerely saluted the six Great Emperors.

If it weren't for this opportunity, granted by the Emperors' opening of the Core of Chaos, allowing him to cross Reincarnation within it, he could not imagine how many Eras of Law he would have to spend to gain the confidence for the risky Reincarnation crossing.

Having now successfully stepped into the Ancestor Realm, Kui Yao's excitement was palpable, and his gratitude to the Great Emperors came from the bottom of his heart.

"Being able to cross Reincarnation, it all boils down to yourself, but don't rejoice too early, soon you'll be headed for the battlefield of the chaotic war, where your power remains relatively low, and you could easily face life-threatening dangers, you must be extremely cautious!" said Emperor Shu Zi.

"Kui Yao remembers!" Hearing he is about to go to battle, Kui Yao's eyes didn't hold a trace of fear. Instead, they were filled with surging battle intent.

Soon, he would showcase his strength by slaying enemies, letting everyone witness the might of Kui Yao!

"Good, next, War Dragon Race, War Dragon Wind Decay."

A young man dressed as a wizard stepped forward. Looking at his frail appearance, it was difficult to believe that this man was from the War Dragon Race, known for its brute strength, or that he was the strongest "War Dragon Wind Decay" among the Saint Venerable Realm of the War Dragon Race!

"War Dragon Wind Decay, paying respects to Emperor Shu Zi." War Dragon Wind Decay resembled a genteel man, with a modest demeanor, completely lacking the domineering arrogance of the War Dragon Race.

"Cast aside distractions and enter the Core of Chaos."

With a wave of his hand, Emperor Shu Zi sent War Dragon Wind Decay into the Core of Chaos second.

The long wait began again.

Wang Xu and others did not rush, for this was Ancestral Transformation and had to be approached with extreme caution. One mistake could severely impact future prospects!

The surroundings returned to silence, and Wang Xu re-entered his cultivation state.

However, before resuming cultivation, he noticed Emperor Shu Zi seemed to give him a friendly glance, smiling at him.

"Is Emperor Shu Zi showing goodwill to me?" Wang Xu was puzzled and unsure.

This time, it was only eight thousand years.

Emperor Shu Zi suddenly opened his eyes wide, waving a hand to extract War Dragon Wind Decay's extremely weak body, nearly depleted of life energy, from the Core of Chaos.

He had failed.

"War Dragon, take him to the pavilion to recuperate."

The War Dragon Emperor nodded, accepting the enfeebled War Dragon Wind Decay, sighed, and left this space.

Failing to cross Reincarnation not only brings long periods of sleep and weakness but also weakens one's power. Restoring strength and preparing for a second Reincarnation will require immense time and energy.

"Next, Golden Divine Palace, Qu Kun."

As one genius after another from the Saint Venerable Realm was sent into the Core of Chaos, Wang Xu couldn't help but feel a bit tense in his heart. (To be continued.
