Chapter 1157: Chapter 1156: Ariel Higgins, Ariel Higgins

"No, no, no!" Yusuf Zuck repeated, meticulously, flipping and searching over and over again, but he couldn’t find Ariel Higgins, and he couldn’t even find Earth.

He was not ready to give up, so he started searching carefully again from the beginning.

He searched over and over for more than a dozen times, but in the end, he couldn’t find Earth.

And as for time, a full day had passed.

He stood silently in front of the screen, also closing his eyes to carefully recall, then suddenly opened his eyes, grabbed the Nether Emperor, and walked out: "Let’s go."

He re-entered the light screen of the World Stele, once again seeing one World Stele after another.

If Earth was not in the Land of the Origin of the Gods, then it must be in some other world. This time he came to The Nether World, he had to find Earth, had to find out what happened to Ariel Higgins.

Of course, this time Yusuf Zuck didn’t rush to search but turned to look at the Nether Emperor and casually asked, "What’s your name?"

"In response to your question, my name is Faith Miller!" the Nether Emperor nodded continuously.

"Faith Miller?" Yusuf Zuck rolled his eyes; such an imposing name indeed!

"Faith Miller, do you know the Mortal Realm well?"

"Quite well, quite well. I’ve been to many Mortal Worlds, and as you know, our Nether World has many exits, each corresponding to a Mortal World, and moreover, our Nether World governs life and death in the Mortal World, so I am quite familiar with it."

"Do you know of... the Origin of the Gods?" Yusuf Zuck wanted to say Earth but feared he wouldn’t understand, so he instead mentioned the Origin of the Gods because everyone said that Earth was the Land of the Origin of the Gods, so it must be the Origin of the Gods then.

"Ah... yes, I know of it, I do. The Land of the Origin of the Gods is a supreme divine place. I heard that Porter Burch, Black Yan Daojun, even Reincarnation Daojun, Lady Meng Po and others have used the Reincarnation Technique to enter into the world of the Origin of the Gods for cultivation. Because if one is born from cultivation in the Origin of the Gods, then their talent is limitless, achievements extraordinary, but they also must have entered the cycle of reincarnation secretly."

"Don’t talk about them!" Yusuf Zuck was deeply moved; so Porter Burch really was the Porter Burch from Earth before, and they had purposefully exploited the resources of The Nether World, used the advantages of The Nether World, cheated their way into the Land of the Origin of the Gods.

"In which world is the Origin of the Gods? Help me find it," Yusuf Zuck pointed at one World Stele on the screen after another.

"It’s not here, not in these!" Faith Miller shook his head vigorously: "Although the Land of the Origin of the Gods is also part of the Mortal Realm and belongs to it, it’s not within the framework of the Mortal Worlds."

"Then where is the Origin of the Gods?" Yusuf Zuck demanded, widening his eyes.

"It’s within the Earth Stele."

"Then let’s go," Yusuf Zuck couldn’t wait any longer and pulled Faith Miller along, also annoyed at himself for not having asked Faith Miller earlier. If he had asked sooner, he would have found it by now.

Soon, the two entered the Earth Stele, and inside there were six other steles, each inscribed with the characters for Immortal, Demon, Spirit, Buddha, Ancient, and Element!

"The Earth Realm actually has six realms? What are the Ancient World and Element World?" Yusuf Zuck asked, curious.

"These are two mysterious realms that have disappeared. Since the Ancient World and Element World disappeared, the Heavenly Book Stele also became inaccessible; no one knows where they are. No one has been there, and no one knows anything about them."

"But since they are recorded in the Heavenly Book, they must exist; it’s just that we cannot find them," Faith Miller replied.

"Right now, I just want to find the Origin of the Gods. There’s no need to talk about the rest!" Yusuf Zuck waved his hand dismissively.

"Yes, yes, yes," Faith Miller nodded continuously: "It’s in the Immortal Stele!"

"What? The Origin of the Gods belongs to the Immortal Realm?" Yusuf Zuck was shocked; how could that be? He had grown up as a mortal, after all.

"Yes, this is also an unsolved mystery. The Origin of the Gods is indeed within the Immortal Stele, but as for why, perhaps only the Heavenly Dao knows!"

"Let’s go!" Without another thought, Yusuf Zuck stepped in!

"Huh..." The moment Yusuf Zuck entered the Immortal Stele, he was bewildered, for within it, there lay a dense cluster of steles — a cursory glance revealed at least a few thousand!

"The Immortal Realm... The Immortal Realm actually has so many planes of existence?" Yusuf Zuck said in disbelief.

"Three thousand and one," Faith Miller nodded, "Three thousand planes of the Immortal Realm, and one Origin of the Gods."

"Wait, wait, you mean to say there are three thousand Immortal Realms?" Yusuf Zuck asked, confused.

"Yes, but although there are three thousand Immortal Realms here, only one stele can be entered and consulted. The other two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine realms cannot be accessed. I’ve heard that these Immortal Realms indeed exist, but for some unknown reason, we can’t find or consult them. However, it’s said that the immortals who ascend from those realms will also enter the Heavenly Realm!" said Faith Miller.

"Incredible!" Yusuf Zuck was truly astounded, his eyes opened to a reality he had never imagined. There were not just one Immortal Realm, but a total of three thousand. Steles don’t lie, and neither does the Heavenly Dao jest. It’s just that the other Immortal Realms and the Nether World here had no connection whatsoever, only with the Heavenly Realm!

"Three thousand and one steles; Origin of the Gods is the extra one." Yusuf Zuck saw the Stele of Origin of the Gods, which bore only two characters: ’Tomb of Gods’!

That character, ’tomb’, implied a gravesite. The Origin of the Gods was also the Tomb of the Gods!

"Go in," Yusuf Zuck rushed into the Stele of the Tomb of Gods!

"Whoosh—" As he entered the Stele of the Tomb of Gods, a screen of light reappeared, with names flickering one after another.

Yusuf Zuck pointed at it, the light ceased its motion, and with a gentle swipe, the specific names and inscriptions appeared.

Land of the Birth and Burial of the Origin of the Gods.

The Water God, Fire God, Metal God, Wood God, Earth God, Wen Wang, Huang Di... a long list of names appeared on this page, each introduced in subtitles!

"My lord, please do not touch these names recklessly; touching these deities’ names is not permitted!" Faith Miller warned from the side.

"Why?" Yusuf Zuck asked curiously.

"Some deities have died, and touching their names wouldn’t matter, but some Gods are still alive. If you touch them, they will sense it, and then they’d instantly strike you dead," Faith Miller explained. "There have been immortals who perished this way, and even Divine Envoys that descended to the Lower Realm to investigate met the same fate. In short, not one has survived, so please don’t touch this page!"

"Oh," Yusuf Zuck nodded; he had no interest in gods or spirits.

He turned another page, and then rows of surnames appeared.

Ariel Higgins’s surname was Craig; Ariel was just her nickname. Yusuf Zuck had spent a considerable time with Ariel, and after their intimate moments, they had talked about each other’s pasts, so he knew about her background.

He found the Craig surname and, quickly flipping through, saw a name that recurred over three hundred times.

From ancient times to the present, more than three hundred people shared Ariel’s name.

Yusuf Zuck flipped to the last entry, the one at the bottom, and with closed eyes, he took a deep breath before pointing to open it!

"Gia Craig, also known as Ariel..."

"It’s her!" A jolt went through Yusuf Zuck’s body, and then he read on, one word at a time.

Birthdate the same, parents the same, life events mirrored each other’s, even a pregnancy was recorded, but the father of the child was just a series of ellipses, as was the single man in Ariel’s life recorded on the screen.

Lines of frustration appeared on Yusuf Zuck’s forehead—had he himself been omitted by the Heavenly Book?

Finally, Yusuf Zuck saw the cause of Ariel’s death, the time of death, and then the last entry, which read: Subject to reincarnation, transferred to the Nether World for seven years and then reincarnated into the Immortal Realm of the East Sacred.

The Immortal Realm of the East Sacred was indeed the one Yusuf Zuck resided in.

Yusuf Zuck continued to read, reincarnated into the Immortal Realm of the East Sacred...

"Ah..." When Yusuf Zuck saw those final few words, including the name after reincarnation, his mouth hung open, his body staggered, and he was on the verge of spitting out a mouthful of blood!
