Chapter 1407: Meet The Chaos
After they had cleared out all the remaining members of the ancient devil race, Long Tianhuo, Feng Huang, Tang Chen, Yue Mengyi, Wang Jinlong, Zhizun Buxiu, and several leaders of the beast races sat together in the main hall of the Long Clan, discussing the number of casualties on their side.
Although they had moved to clear out their enemies, the number of casualties on their side was still considerable. Despite this, they felt lucky because Huang Lingzhu and the other immortals helped them stop those fake immortals, and Long Hun helped them by controlling Ling Yun’s body to eliminate the two leaders of the ancient devil race and the devil’s baby; otherwise, the number of casualties on their side would have been much higher.
"What are our plans next?" Yue Mengyi asked.
Tang Chen shook his head slightly. "Even though we have been able to overcome the threat from the ancient devil race, I believe their number of members is still large. It is impossible for Xie Zuzhou to remain silent with the deaths of those two devil women, and he will probably plan a second attack against us."
"I think the same as you, Brother Tang." Long Tianhuo nodded in agreement. "The ancient demon race troops Xie Zuzhou sent earlier were only a fraction of his race’s members, and his race’s members are several times greater than that. Qi Wuhei and Zu Tian’er are indeed dead, but he still has several subordinates who are no less powerful than them, and he might release them to attack us someday."
"What if we attack them first?" They all turned to Feng Huang. "Xie Zuzhou is indeed strong, but I believe his subordinates haven’t reached his level yet. Moreover, he won’t be able to create another devil’s baby anytime soon, so we don’t need to worry about that, and we can focus on reducing their strength as much as possible."
Zhizun Buxiu immediately spoke. "You underestimate the ancient devil race too much, little girl. I can fight Xie Zuzhou, but I won’t be so crazy as to set foot in his domain. In fact, I once attacked him inside his domain, and I almost died at his hands if not for my void abilities."
"Is he really that strong in his domain?" Wang Jinlong asked.
"He is invincible as long as he is within his domain." Zhizun Buxiu’s answer caused them to gasp. "Even though his ancestors and past members of his race have long died, their corpses and strength remain there, and he can borrow their strength, which increases his strength several fold higher. Fortunately, he can only borrow their power while he’s within their domain; otherwise, this realm would have fallen into his hands long ago, as no one can stand against him, except for Huang Lingzhu. Those immortals are indeed powerful, but I doubt they could defeat him if he borrowed that power. Therefore, attacking him within his domain is the worst idea, and we will be throwing away our lives there for nothing. Instead of thinking about that, we should focus on our strength and strengthening our defense, as he won’t dare attack us anytime soon."
Wang Jinlong nodded in agreement before asking him. "How about you bring a few of us back to the upper realms? With your cultivation and void abilities, I believe we can get there much faster."
"Hmm?" Zhizun Buxiu looked at Wang Jinlong with raised eyebrows. "Are you thinking about bringing people from that realm here?"
"Yes." Wang Jinlong nodded at him. "The cultivation of the natural races there hasn’t yet broken through to the Three Immortal Realms, but their ability to communicate with nature will be invaluable to us. Therefore, I’m thinking of bringing them to this domain, and we will help them break through to that stage with the resources of this realm. Additionally, there are still many powerful beasts in the upper realms; I think we can bring them here too."
Zhizun Buxiu thought for some time before nodding in agreement with that. "Your idea is indeed good, but this realm will not be enough to accommodate them all, and we have to think of another solution before we bring them here."
"Is it possible to move their realm here?" Long Tianhuo asked.
"No." Zhizun Buxiu immediately shook his head. "I’ve heard of the Tianshan Realm before, but that planet is different from other planets. Moving a planet from the upper realms to this realm requires extraordinary strength, and none of us have it. I’m not sure we can do it, even with Huang Lingzhu and the immortals’ help."
Yue Mengyi then spoke. "Since that’s not possible, I think the only solution is to move them to a nearby realm. However, natural races aren’t used to humans around them, so we need to find a realm with a small human population."
"That’s not possible either." Zhizun Buxiu immediately told them. "This realm has an excessively large human population, and people inhabit every domain within it. The only solution is to build a separate dimension like mine for them, but it will take a long time to build one. Furthermore, I can’t do it alone, and I need the help of many void cultivators to build one."
"Who built your separate dimension in the past?"
"The void spirit of my era." Zhizun Buxiu answered with a soft sigh. "Zhou Yu is the void spirit of this era, but she still hasn’t regained the strength of her predecessors, so she won’t be able to build one."
Long Tianhuo thought for a moment before contacting Zao Nianjian to discuss the matter. A few minutes later, he informed Zhizun Buxiu and the others, "Old Zao is willing to accommodate them in his domain. The number of humans there isn’t as large as in other domains, so I think his domain will be suitable for the natural races. Once we successfully construct a separate dimension for them, we’ll move them there."
"I think that’s doable." Zhizun Buxiu then stood up. "The spirit emperor, the dwarf lord, and the former elf queen are in this realm, right? One of you should fetch them and bring them here, and we’ll go straight to the upper realms afterward."
"I’ll go there now." Feng Huang hurriedly left, followed by Yue Mengyi.
Sometime later, the two women returned with Zhu Ling, Xian Di, and Nu Wang. Wang Jinlong explained their plan to the three people, which they immediately agreed to.
After that, Zhizun Buxiu led them out and took them on board his flying artifact, and he took them away through the void.

At Yunlong Zhuzhai, Ling Yun had not yet dual-cultivated with all his wives; instead, he was daydreaming alone in the eastern garden, thinking about Long Hun and Huang Lingzhu.
"Why are you here, husband?" Mu Shu asked him, and several women stood behind her.
Ling Yun released a soft sigh. "I was just thinking about the old dragon’s situation, especially his request regarding Huang Lingzhu. That woman is really too much, and I hate her even more. She has the power to stop Xie Zuzhou, but she is a selfish bitch, and she deliberately let that old devil sacrifice countless living beings to create the devil’s baby."
"We—"
*Bam... Bam... Bam...*
Ling Yun immediately looked back, and he frowned after seeing them suddenly fall unconscious. He tried to check the area where he lived, and he found that everyone there had fallen unconscious.
Ling Yun immediately stood up and shouted. "Come out!"
"Haha." Ling Yun froze as soon as he saw the man who suddenly appeared before him, and he immediately recognized his identity from his face. "As expected, you’re not surprised by my appearance."
Ling Yun took a deep breath and asked. "Why did you suddenly decide to appear before me, Chaos?"
"No special reason." Chaos replied with a shake of his head. "I can understand your feelings for my daughter, Time. However, this is not the time for you to be thinking about her; do you know that?"
"Heh!" Ling Yun snorted at him. "Do you think you can understand my feelings? Like father, like daughter, and you’re both too selfish. You are the creator of this universe, but you are also the one who caused chaos in it. The law told me that the will influences the fate to transmit those worldly feelings to the primordials, and the will is your will, so you are the essence of all this chaos. If you hadn’t allowed it, this chaos would never have happened, and all the primordials would still be alive today."
"Hahaha." The Chaos laughed when he heard that, but his gaze turned sharp and stared at him with killing intent, yet Ling Yun remained unfazed. "I like you, kid. Even Long Hun always trembled whenever he stood before me in the past, but you’re not the slightest bit afraid of me."
"Why should I be afraid of you?" Ling Yun responded in a flat tone. "I fear death, but I’m not a coward. Moreover, you didn’t come to kill me; otherwise, I’d be dead before I could speak."
The Chaos nodded to him. "To tell you the truth, I couldn’t kill you even if I wanted to."
"Hmm?" Ling Yun frowned. "What do you mean by that? You are the creator and the omnipotent one, and you can erase Huang Lingzhu and the old dragon, let alone a mortal like me."
The Chaos smiled at that. "You’re right about that, but you haven’t realized the reason behind your existence."
