Chapter 1239: Chapter 924: 12 Primordial Beasts

Feng Ya, though comatose and severely injured, had no fear for her life, but Ao Lei had burned his own soul, and his lost lower half could not heal on its own, appearing to have no life left, almost without any possibility of coming back to life. However, it was only that faint, barely discernible breath that hung there, as if some obsession prevented him from truly dying.

Lei Leian silently watched Ao Lei and Feng Ya. Since her birth, she had been sent to the "Black Iron World" and had grown up under the guardianship of her great-grandfather and aunt. Her impression of her parents, Ao Lei and Feng Ya, was not profound.

Later, when she found out that Ao Lei and Feng Ya had sold her to the Master of Rules, her heart was completely filled with sorrow and despair toward them.

However, at this moment, as she looked at the tragic state of Feng Ya and Ao Lei, Lei Leian still felt unspeakable sadness welling up inside her, a breath stuck in her chest, unable to release.

Su Yu could vaguely understand Lei Leian’s feelings but did not know how to comfort her. Ada looked at Su Yu and said, "Su Yu, to what realm have you reached now?"

Although Su Yu had once fought with the Fiery Demon Bull King, the Bull King was too fearsome, suppressing Su Yu, preventing him from unleashing his strongest combat power. Even Ada couldn’t see through Su Yu’s current level.

Hearing Ada’s inquiry, Su Yu replied somewhat startled, "Still not enough. Though I’ve tried to imitate that will’s power, the effect is far inferior; I can now borrow at most one-two-thousandths or three-thousandths of the energy of the Thunder and Lightning Sun... You said that Tlorlok of the Aztec Clan can already borrow one percent of the sun’s energy, compared to that, I’m still far too lacking."

Ada shook her head, "Not so, it’s already quite impressive. To reach such a level in such a short time is remarkable, but... what we’re most lacking now is time..."

In terms of time, Su Yu’s attainment of such a realm in such a short period was indeed beyond imagination. But compared to the increasingly dangerous situation now, this speed was just too slow.

Seeing Lei Leian still silently watching her parents, Su Yu whispered to Ada, "Ada, I know about the Primordial Beasts, but what is this ’Primordial Beast?’ That Fiery Demon Bull King, being ten thousand meters long, is so terrifying, I’m afraid it’s even three parts more formidable than Tlorlok. Such a huge creature... could only be matched by the Ten Thousand Meter Skeleton in the Divine Pit World, and that colossal bone we saw on the Ancient Life Continent... Could it be, those ten-thousand-meter-long skeletons are the remains left by the death of a Primordial Beast?"

Ada shook her head, "That’s unlikely. There are many legends about the Primordial Beasts. The most widespread belief is that the starry universe is guarded by twelve great beasts, with the universe having twelve zodiacal signs, and these twelve beasts are evolved from these twelve signs, known as the Primordial Beasts. These twelve Primordial Beasts and the starry universe are two sides of the same entity. Hence, as long as the starry universe does not perish, these twelve Primordial Beasts will not die."

"Conversely, if the twelve Primordial Beasts were to fall and die, it would also mean that the starry universe is stepping toward doom and destruction."

Su Yu, hearing Ada’s explanation, paused in shock. Twelve Primordial Beasts, which are two sides of the same existence as the starry universe? So those robe-clad men and women believed the Primordial Beasts were indestructible, beyond resistance, which is why they fled?

"But that blue Spear of Orthodoxy managed to injure the Fiery Demon Bull King," Su Yu said, frowning slightly.

Ada explained, "That Spear of Orthodoxy, I guess, must embody the universe’s most substantial orthodox rules. The starry universe operates under these rules, so it’s not surprising that the Spear of Orthodoxy can hurt the Fiery Demon Bull King."

Su Yu thought of something and asked, "The color and material of the Spear of Orthodoxy resemble the true Chaos Staff. I wonder if the Chaos Staff has that kind of power."

Ada smiled, "The real Chaos Staff, its power, even if it doesn’t match the Spear of Orthodoxy, shouldn’t be too far off. The Spear of Orthodoxy represents the universe’s greatest orthodox rules, while the Chaos Staff... I think it must be related to chaos. There is a theory that the universe was chaos before its formation. You could even say that this ’chaos,’ is considered the origin of the universe. So my guess is, even if there is a disparity in their strengths... it can’t be too great."

Hearing this, Su Yu exclaimed, "With such power contained in the Chaos Staff, and this staff once belonged to Teacher Tezcatlipoca, was Teacher Tezcatlipoca once extremely powerful?"

Now carefully considering it, Su Yu realized the extent of Tezcatlipoca’s former might, which was probably unimaginable.

The Fiery Demon Bull King had surpassed ordinary Peak Immortality, but it fled from the Spear of Orthodoxy. Tezcatlipoca once possessed the Chaos Staff, whose power was comparable to the Spear of Orthodoxy. By inference, the power and realm Tezcatlipoca once held were indeed fearsome.

The Master of Rules could summon the Spear of Orthodoxy but obviously found it difficult to truly wield it, whereas Tezcatlipoca could freely use the Chaos Core. Even with only a remnant of his soul left, he could condense more than ninety percent of the Chaos Core’s energy into a Chaos Core. The gulf in their strengths and levels was clear.

Seeing Su Yu’s startled expression, Ada laughed, "What’s so surprising? Tezcatlipoca could become the progenitor of the three great civilizations precisely because he had such skill."

Su Yu thought indeed it was so; Tezcatlipoca was the progenitor of the "Aztec civilization," "Inca civilization," and "Maya civilization." Even the Immortal Tlorlok of the Aztec civilization possessed peak immortality strength. As the progenitor of these three great civilizations, Tezcatlipoca’s immense power was beyond doubt.

Lei Leian, who had been silent, suddenly said, "Su Yu, Ada, let’s leave." At the same time, she gently waved her hand, and a gentle force enveloped Feng Ya and Ao Lei.

Su Yu hmmmed and asked, "Lei Leian, where have you all been these years? Ada and I have searched all the way from Black Iron World to here and not found the slightest clue about you."

Lei Leian’s pretty face struggled to show a slight smile as she replied, "At that time, the ’Divine Pit’ incident occurred in the Element Space of the Black Iron World. You disappeared suddenly, and those Children of Destiny got a big boost in strength because of the ’Divine Pit’ and began causing destruction everywhere. The situation in Black Iron World became increasingly perilous. We had no choice, so later I sought help from the Master of Rules and, with her power, took everyone from Black Iron City out of ’Black Iron World’ and entered this world."

Su Yu was surprised and said, "Is it possible to leave Black Iron World?" He remembered that leaving Black Iron World without surpassing Black Iron Realm was almost impossible, given the forces endured when traversing between those two worlds, which could destroy those with lower strength.

Ada interjected, "Idiot, even the starry universe is under these rules. If it were indeed the Master of Rules who acted, she certainly would have the ability. For her rules, those limitations are invalid."

Su Yu pondered and nodded slightly, "Right, why didn’t I think of it at the time? If the Master of Rules took action, she could certainly have taken all the people from Black Iron City out of Black Iron World and Upper Realm. Then... right, you haven’t been staying in that ’Master of Rules’ world all along, have you?"

He suddenly remembered when he had gone to rescue Lei Leian years ago, he had entered a strange space with Ao Lei and his wife. At that time, Su Yu didn’t know that leaving "Upper Realm" meant entering the starry universe. Now, come to think of it, that strange space must be some special world within this starry universe.

Lei Leian shook her head and replied, "No, the Master of Rules has abandoned that place to avoid some people. She took us and hid in a place that no one would guess."

Su Yu immediately thought of those men and women in white robes; the people the Master of Rules was obviously trying to avoid were indeed them. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Those people said the Master of Rules betrayed them... So, are they some kind of Guardians of the rules? If the Master of Rules betrayed them, it must have been after the ’Divine Pit’ incident."

Lei Leian hmmmed and said, "After that, she also stole something, the ’Spear of Orthodoxy’, belonging to ’that one’... saying if she wanted to transcend, she would rely on it."

"So, who is ’that one’ those men and women in white robes were talking about, is there a leader above the Master of Rules?"

Lei Leian shook her head and said, "She didn’t tell me in detail, and I’m not very clear about it."

Ada took over the conversation, "It should be that guy, I heard about him ten thousand years ago but never had real contact. However, from what those guys say, ’he’ should still be asleep now."

Lei Leian, carrying the unconscious Ao Lei couple, and accompanied by Su Yu and Ada, left that space. Lei Leian gave the exact coordinates to Ada, who summoned the "Divine Pit" for teleportation, taking Su Yu, Lei Leian, and the Ao Lei couple away from there.

After they disappeared into the void, suddenly, in a very distant place, a figure in a white robe appeared, a man with white hair.

His figure flickered, and he quickly arrived where Ada and the others had just disappeared. He reached out his hand, and the space continuously shattered, quickly revealing a dark fissure. He stretched his arm into it, then breathed in deeply, as if identifying something.

After a while, he coldly chuckled, "Beth Finley, quite cunning, originally hiding there."

Leaving those words behind, his figure flashed and he left the place.

Ada, using the coordinates provided by Lei Leian, harnessed the teleportation power of the Divine Pit and reappeared, bringing Su Yu and Lei Leian along, in a space engulfed by a fiery red glow.

"Hmm?" Su Yu slightly furrowed his eyebrows.

In the void in front of them appeared a huge, heaven-like fireball that tumbled and released an endless amount of scorching energy. Its diameter reached millions of kilometers, clearly a star.
