World-saving Plan: The Only Savior

Chapter 1912: Chapter 31: The Road to Aigus (2)

"Wait... Earlier Makdo was captured by Extreme Star Lord, could it be that he was sent here?"

As they thought about what happened before, Makdo’s death, the situation before he was captured, and Mu Li Han in soul form, connecting all the clues naturally led to a shocking truth.

"This Extreme Star Lord can actually resurrect the souls of the dead!?"

Yao Wu and the others were all dumbfounded; this news was even more shocking than when they saw two Middle-level Gods.

In their original world, the concept of a soul consciousness body didn’t even exist.

While the idea of a soul existed, it was always in the realm of ’it might exist but is essentially useless.’

Because it was well-known that a soul body was nothing but a form of energy without consciousness, resembling its original owner, and extremely unstable, it could disperse at any time.

It was like a clay doll; no matter how much it resembled a person, it was fundamentally just a lifeless object.

But now, seeing what was happening in front of them was the first time they felt a collapse of their worldview, seeing their deceased companion standing before them, seemingly nodding to them, obviously retaining some pre-death consciousness.

In other words, in a certain sense, their companion was essentially resurrected.

The ability to revive souls believed non-existent since ancient times was earth-shattering news to them, immediately leaving them frozen in shock.

Zhang Xiaoman glanced at the dumbfounded group with some amusement; these beings at the Extraordinary Level usually called themselves True Gods, always appearing overly confident, yet now they were making a spectacle of themselves.

He glanced at the figures behind Yeluo, also very satisfied; thus, the Star Alliance’s strength was once again enhanced. Although these Apocalypse Knights couldn’t stay in the First Universe for long, they could provide temporary rescue in critical moments.

"Hmm, not bad, your progress is surprising. You can arrange these six knights yourself. Their help will make it more convenient for you to construct the Reincarnation System," Zhang Xiaoman said to Yeluo, making the latter very delighted.

Yao Wu and the others were somewhat numb at this point. Constructing a Reincarnation System? Is this how a god speaks?

In their place, they would be ridiculed by other gods, since there wasn’t even a proper soul, let alone a Reincarnation System. That was just a dream and a legend.

But what they were witnessing forced them to believe that this world might indeed be hiding something they didn’t know, and the secret was right before them, making them both excited and a bit anxious.

After dismissing Naphaya and Yeluo, Zhang Xiaoman refocused on Yao Wu and the others.

"Let’s go, return to your places, take a look at the Divine Hidden Palace, and visit the Observer you mentioned."

Seeing that Zhang Xiaoman didn’t seem to intend any trouble for them and skipped over what just happened, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, under the influence of Zhang Xiaoman, the Realm Master, they disappeared from the Original Realm and reappeared in the Dark Spirit Star Domain.

"Eh? Is this the Dark Spirit Star Domain? I think I’ve been here before."

The woman in red sensed the spiritual power fluctuations around and immediately identified their current location.

This surprised Zhang Xiaoman; he hadn’t expected her perception to be so keen. She could detect that they had arrived at the Dark Spirit Star Domain just from subtle changes in spiritual power fluctuations. It seemed these Extraordinary beings each possessed impressive skills.

"Take this and bring it to the Divine Hidden Palace; I’ll visit at an appropriate time."

Zhang Xiaoman handed a token to Yao Wu.

Yao Wu looked at the purple token in his palm, instantly recognizing it as the one they had seen before the Big Vortex.

"This is..."

"This is the Realm Lord Order, my token."

Yao Wu bowed low:

"I shall ensure the token reaches its destination. The entire Divine Hidden Palace will welcome the arrival of the two Lords!"

He said this and then left with the others. All of them being at the Extraordinary Level had their own ways to return to Aigus, so Zhang Xiaoman didn’t need to worry.

After sending them off, Zhang Xiaoman looked into the depths of the cosmos in the direction of Beller Star Domain, inhabited by countless Beller Clan drones. Now, these drones appeared to him as his destined underlings. Previously too busy, he now planned to take this opportunity to go to the Beller Star Domain to recruit his wild followers.

Meanwhile, Ni Yang seemed somewhat distracted since entering the Big Vortex, more so after encountering a sudden crisis.

Zhang Xiaoman looked at him and inquired about his condition.

"Ni Yang? Are you alright?"

He asked twice before the other finally snapped out of it and slowly shook his head.

Zhang Xiaoman could tell he had something on his mind, and his state seemed off, making him somewhat worried.

"I’m fine, just disappointed that behind the Big Vortex it’s only the Second Universe, which wasted my expectations."

Ni Yang spoke casually, but his demeanor indicated otherwise.

Zhang Xiaoman asked another question; he might not do so with others, but Ni Yang was both a friend and teacher, demanding cautious consideration.

"Actually, it’s nothing; I just felt a familiar aura when leaving..."

"A familiar aura...?"

Zhang Xiaoman was taken aback.

Ni Yang shook his head.

"Probably not, maybe I sensed wrong."

Seeing he didn’t want to talk more, Zhang Xiaoman didn’t press, though he had some speculations.

A familiar aura stronger than Ni Yang, within the Immortal Realm, who else could it be but the Primordial Heavenly Emperor?

"Could it be... the Demon Lord is the Primordial Heavenly Emperor?"

Zhang Xiaoman thought in shock.

Although he had similar suspicions before, they were just baseless conjectures, but now with more clues from Ni Yang, he further confirmed his previous deductions.

The Primordial Heavenly Emperor is the Demon Lord!

This news hit Zhang Xiaoman like a bomb.

"No, it’s still just a hypothesis, unverified. I need to investigate further."

Zhang Xiaoman began forming a plan for his next steps, when suddenly Ni Yang spoke:

"Kid, I just remembered something, need to leave for a while. You act solo for now; I’ll find you when I’m done."

Saying that, he swiftly turned and hurriedly left.

Zhang Xiaoman looked in the direction of Ni Yang’s disappearance, baffled by the sudden move.

Something happening? What could Ni Yang have going on?

More precisely, what could he have going on in the Second Universe?

It was his first time descending in body; previously, his presence was only in the Sect Leader Jade.

With Ni Yang leaving like this, Zhang Xiaoman was sure there was an unknown reason.

But since the other party was unwilling to explain, he couldn’t persistently pursue it. Thankfully, with Ni Yang’s strength and the Star Ring for teleportation, there shouldn’t be any danger.
