Afterward, Taiqing entered the world of the Chaos Pearl, and Li Er followed him in. This world within the Chaos Pearl was currently only known to Li Er; no one else had ever been invited by Taiqing.
Within the Chaos Pearl's world at this moment, an old man's primordial spirit was being restrained. Instead of being anxious, he was looking around with interest, continuously observing his surroundings. The demonic energy emanating from him was also being purified and absorbed by the Chaos Pearl.
"Origin of Space!?" The old man's eyes widened upon seeing Li Er. It wasn't because Li Er was particularly powerful, but because the Origin of Space within Li Er was too formidable. Such an origin was sufficient to forge an Ancestral Saint.
For countless years, he had been searching for the Origin of Space but had never found it!
"Senior, it seems you are also a master of the Origin of Space!" Li Er said calmly. He could also sense the Origin of Space within the old man, especially since the old man was currently only a primordial spirit and very weak.
"Indeed, this old man is called Hao Yu, an Ancestral Saint of Space!" the old man stated.
Li Er and Taiqing exchanged glances. 'Damn, an Ancestral Saint of Space, and we actually captured him. How are we supposed to search his memories now? Won't he reverse search us?'
As for letting him go? Hah, ridiculous. This was an Ancestral Saint of Space. If they let him go, he would seek revenge later, and they would be doomed!
It could be said that for a moment, both of them understood what it meant to be in a predicament.
After a long pause, Li Er asked, "Senior, as an Ancestral Saint of Space, how did you end up like this? And the demonic energy on you, is it from the Ancestral Demon?"
Hao Yu chuckled and said, "I didn't expect you to know about the Ancestral Demon. Not many people know about him now. Indeed, the Ancestral Demon was about to break free. I and dozens of Ancestral Saints, including Di Shitian of the Sacred Heaven Realm, went to stop him. Unfortunately, the Ancestral Demon was too powerful. Even all of us combined were no match for him. We could only manage to reseal him as he had just broken free, but it wouldn't last long!"
Li Er hadn't expected these Ancestral Saint powerhouses to have already gone into action; no wonder the rifts had disappeared.
"Senior, would you mind telling us? And senior, about you, is there anything we can help with?" Taiqing asked directly.
"Give me a recording jade slip, and I will record these things," Hao Yu said directly.
Li Er quickly tossed the jade slip over, and at the same time, awkwardly added, "Senior, we cannot currently verify the truth of what you've said, so we cannot release you for now. Please bear with us!"
Hao Yu nodded and smiled, "Whether you release me or not is no longer important. The reason I came out was to bring out the Origin of Space. My primordial spirit has already been corrupted by demonic energy, and there is no cure."
Li Er took a look. Indeed, his primordial spirit was covered in black spots. This was likely the power of the Primordial Demonic Qi!
"This is my origin and the scenes of battle, along with my understanding of space. Young friend, whether the Ancestral Demon can be defeated in the future depends on you!" Hao Yu said with great forthrightness.
At the same time, he separated his own origin. Looking at the origin floating in the air and the two jade slips, Li Er waved his hand. The origin didn't move, but the jade slips flew into his hand. He said to Taiqing, "I have enough Origin of Space to cultivate to the Ancestral Saint level, but to break through, it might not be enough. Let the Chaos Pearl absorb this; perhaps we'll need your help in the future!"
Taiqing also nodded and immediately had the Chaos Pearl refine the origin!
After looking at the jade slips, Li Er asked, "Senior, is there really no way to help you break free?"
"Probably not, unless there is a treasure that can suppress demonic energy. Unfortunately, there are very few such treasures in all the myriad worlds. Although your world can suppress it, it can only restrain, and the speed of absorbing demonic energy is too slow!" Hao Yu said directly.
Li Er sighed. He didn't want such an Ancestral Saint-level expert to perish like this, not even to be reborn and cultivate anew.
Afterward, Li Er's Thirty-Six-Petaled Primordial Creation Green Lotus flew out, suppressing itself above the old man's head, intending to purify the demonic energy. However, it could only offset some of the demonic energy and could not purify it.
"This lotus is extraordinary, but it's not complete. Perhaps if all the pieces are gathered, it will have some effect!" Hao Yu said in surprise. He didn't expect these two young fellows to have so many treasures, and all of them were excellent ones.
"Gathered? Senior, wait!" Li Er said, then directly called out in the group chat, "Minghe, give me your World-Destroying Black Lotus. Zhun Ti, give me your Golden Lotus of Merit! Third Brother, give me your Karma Red Lotus! Quickly!"
Everyone in the group space, waiting for messages, looked at each other. Tongtian immediately sent the Karma Red Lotus to Li Er!
Minghe and Zhun Ti were reluctant and grumbled a bit. After all, they didn't have many spiritual treasures, and now you're asking for them!
"Hurry up, can't you hear my eldest brother?" Tongtian immediately took out the Immortal Slaying Sword!
Minghe curled his lips. He couldn't defeat the Three Pure Ones now. He had no choice but to reluctantly send the World-Destroying Black Lotus.
Zhun Ti also unwillingly sent over the Golden Lotus of Merit.
Upon receiving the red packets, Li Er took out the three lotuses and then used the Primordial Creation Green Lotus to devour them. Slowly, the Thirty-Six-Petaled Primordial Creation Green Lotus transformed into the petals of a green Chaos Green Lotus, still thirty-six petals!
"Senior, what about now?" Li Er asked.
Hao Yu nodded and said, "We can try. We'll treat it as a dead horse and try to bring it back to life."
Then, Li Er used the Thirty-Six-Petaled Chaos Green Lotus to suppress Hao Yu. The demonic energy on Hao Yu surged, but it was quickly absorbed by the Chaos Green Lotus. Hao Yu was overjoyed and quickly broke free from his primordial spirit, his soul emerging. Now, Hao Yu had no cultivation and was in a soul state, but with no demonic energy on his soul, he could reincarnate and cultivate again.
"Senior, in which world would you like to reincarnate and cultivate?" Li Er asked. Since he had benefited, he had to do things well for the other party.
"Just find a stable world. Thank you for the trouble, young friend," Hao Yu said. Who would want to die if they could live?
Li Er took out a gourd and collected Hao Yu in it. He then thought for a moment and felt that Li Yang's world seemed quite good. He directly went to Li Yang's world and initiated the reincarnation process.
After finishing everything, Li Er returned to the Heavenly Dao group space. Everyone was looking at him, as Taiqing had gone and not returned.
Li Er knew that Taiqing was cultivating. He said in the group chat, "Fellow Daoist Fengyun, you can come back now."
Fengyun appeared in the group space the next second. Li Er took out a jade slip and said, "This is what happened. I've uploaded everything. You can all look at it yourselves."
The others began to check. The battle scenes of the Ancestral Saints within it astonished everyone. They hadn't expected so many Ancestral Saints to have gone to suppress the Ancestral Demon, nor had they expected that so many Ancestral Saints would basically die, and Hao Yu was also seriously injured!
"So, that senior is Hao Yu, the Ancestral Saint of Space? The actual number one expert in all the myriad worlds?" Chen Chichi exclaimed. The group leader was too formidable; he actually suppressed the number one expert!"
