# Chapter 2025: Colorless Arcane Firmament
"What did you see?"
When Yun Che's consciousness withdrew from the soul shadow, Li Suo's voice sounded.
That was a residual memory impression left directly in Yun Che's soul sea by the Evil God Ni Xuan. Li Suo could not peer into it.
"It's a memory fragment deliberately left behind by Senior Ni Xuan." Yun Che's tone carried the weight that had yet to dissipate.
Mo Su...
This was not the first time he had encountered this name.
Although the impression was very shallow, the surname "Mo" was far too unique. In all of Yun Che's life, he only knew of two people.
One was Mo E, the head of the Four Creation Gods. The other... was "Mo Su" recorded in the Dragon God ancient texts.
[The Heaven-Slaying Crown Prince Mo Su, with a divine bearing that stood unmatched, no divine son in the world could surpass him. The Heaven-Slaying God Emperor loved him deeply, yet because he committed an unforgivable taboo, he was personally buried by his own hand into the Abyss of Nothingness.]
[His righteousness, his strictness, his absoluteness, shook the heavens. All the world praised and submitted to him.]
"..." Recalling the brief record of the name "Mo Su" in the Dragon God ancient texts, Yun Che sank into a long contemplation.
In the memory fragment, Ni Xuan's divine power, his status, his appearance, his temperament and spirit—all were the pinnacle of what a man in this world could be. Yet such an existence was also so free and unrestrained, treating all beings as equals.
If a man could be like him, he would surpass all ages.
But the Ni Xuan Yun Che saw was so aged and gloomy...
No matter who saw him at first glance, it would be absolutely impossible to believe they were the same person.
From what Yun Che saw and felt, the main reason for the Evil God Ni Xuan's appearance before his divine fall was not the erosion of Myriad Tribulations of Oblivion, but extreme despondency, decay, and self-torment.
And Mo Su...
He was the "Heaven-Slaying Crown Prince" recorded in the Dragon God ancient texts, undoubtedly the most important son of the Heaven-Slaying God Emperor Mo E. In the memory fragment, Mo E, who disagreed with Ni Xuan, still chose to push Mo Su to Ni Xuan's side for the sake of Mo Su's progress. With a little thought, one could tell this was a huge concession Mo E made for Mo Su—because this act not only made him swallow his pride but also forced him to owe Ni Xuan a favor.
This showed the deep, hidden importance and love he had for Mo Su.
But why did the Dragon God ancient texts record... that Mo Su's end was personally buried in the Abyss of Nothingness by Mo E?
In the memory fragment, the youth was noble yet carried a hint of ignorance... or perhaps dullness. He followed the rules, respected his elders and father, was untouched by worldly desires, and even chose every word in his speech with extreme caution, afraid of being rude.
A person like this, who clearly grew up under strict restraint and found even the "transgression" personally demanded by Ni Xuan extremely difficult—what kind of taboo crime did he commit that made a father willing to personally bury and destroy his own most beloved son?
Wait...
Why did Ni Xuan deliberately leave this memory for me?
Mo Su... buried in the Abyss...
Could it be...
"Your soul fluctuations suddenly became so intense." Li Suo's voice sounded. "It seems the memory fragment Ni Xuan left you is extraordinary."
Yun Che slowly exhaled and said, "He told me some things he originally didn't want to reveal. Perhaps... it was to thank me for taking care of Hong'er and You'er."
Within his soul sea, there were five memory fragments left by Ni Xuan.
What he had seen were only two of them.
The other three were self-sealed. The divine soul sealing them was extremely weak, but if Yun Che forcibly read them, they would surely collapse directly.
He could only wait for them to appear on their own in his soul sea at some unknown moment. Perhaps when Ni Xuan dissipated, he still didn't know whether he should leave these things, which should have been eternally buried, to future generations.
But these two revealed memory scenes had already given Yun Che too clear a hint.
After barely calming Hong'er and You'er, Yun Che opened his eyes.
The surroundings were still dead silent, but the scene had changed dramatically.
The place where he stood was now a massive pit.
The pit was so huge it extended dozens of miles outward.
He was at the center of the pit. As far as his eyes could see, the destroyed mist sea ground was as flat as a mirror.
He had no idea that when his profound veins fused and were reborn, they had triggered a terrifying disaster at his location.
"Such a big commotion is likely to attract others... or Abyss Beasts. It's better to leave immediately."
Muttering softly, Yun Che had already leaped into the air... but in an instant, he stopped there and slowly raised his palm.
Because the moment he activated his profound energy, its circulation was faster and more powerful than before, beyond any comparison.
Staring at his five fingers, he slowly murmured, "Divine Lord Realm..."
Back then, Yun Che had tried countless times to break through to the Divine Lord Realm, but his cultivation, which had never encountered a bottleneck, hit a wall he couldn't cross when he reached the peak of the Divine Sovereign Realm. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't advance an inch.
It wasn't until he was in the Zhou Tian Divine Realm that he began to suspect this might be due to the incompleteness of the Evil God's Mysterious Vein. Later, after obtaining the Evil God inscriptions, he learned that this was a restriction deliberately left by the Evil God Ni Xuan. Now, having crossed into the abyss and obtained the final Evil God Seed, the moment his Evil God's Mysterious Vein was restored to completeness, the power that had been piled at the limit of the Divine Sovereign Realm for years burst forth like a breached dam. As Yun Che's profound veins transformed into a star-flowing universe, they eagerly completed the breakthrough.
The entire process was so smooth that Yun Che didn't even notice it.
"Fi... nally..." Staring at his five fingers, he murmured somewhat absentmindedly.
For Yun Che, this was not just a breakthrough in a major realm, but the true first step he had taken in this abyssal world.
He spread his five fingers, and in the same instant, fire, ice, wind whirls, and lightning appeared, each occupying one finger.
Then, a yellow profound light flashed, covering his little finger with a rock-like light as hard as ten thousand layered boulders.
The power of five elements was released simultaneously, existing together without any obstruction or difficulty.
He closed his five fingers, the profound light extinguished, and the released profound energy stirred clear and visible ripples in space.
This is my... Divine Lord power!
With my current strength, I might only need to open the Yama King Realm Gate to fight those eleven Half-step Divine Destruction cultivators from Linyuan Realm alone!
But what amazed Yun Che the most was not the explosive increase in profound energy, but the drastic change in his perception.
Previously, he could sense the existence and movement of Abyss Dust, but this perception was relatively vague.
Now, in the surrounding space... almost every wisp, even every particle of Abyss Dust, he could perceive with crystal clarity.
When he narrowed his spiritual sense and focused his perception, the movement trajectory of each Abyss Dust particle was incredibly clear.
Yun Che, who had planned to leave this place, stood there, his eyes closed, unmoving for a long time. His tightly focused spirit was almost akin to a strange state of enlightenment, causing Li Suo to not dare make a sound.
At that moment, a tearing sound rang out. A gray shadow shot out from the gray mist, accompanied by a strange roar, lunging straight at Yun Che's back.
Yun Che remained completely still, as if he hadn't noticed at all.
Just when the gray shadow was less than a foot from his back, a palm suddenly grabbed its head.
The hand moved so fast that it seemed to appear out of thin air.
Beneath the tightly clenched five fingers, the gray shadow froze in midair, motionless as if sealed, with only the chilling gray mist rising from its body.
Yun Che's body slowly turned with his arm.
So this is an Abyss Beast?
This was a wolf-shaped Abyss Beast, only about half a zhang long. Gray mist completely covered its body, like a ghost wolf burning with purgatorial gray fire.
The only recognizable features were its original outline... and perhaps the wolf eyes flickering with terrifying gray light.
The destructive aura released by this Abyss Beast was roughly at the mid-stage Divine Sovereign Realm. Under Yun Che's current power, it posed absolutely no threat.
He kept his grip locked on the beast's head, and his profound energy and soul power poured through his fingers directly into its entire body.
Gradually, his eyes, filled with a strange light, slowly narrowed.
Boom!
With a soft sound, the Abyss Beast was shattered into pieces between his fingers... Besides broken bones and limbs, a large amount of bloody gore splattered out, accompanied by the madly dispersing mist-like Abyss Dust.
The bones and blood of the Abyss Beast were still there, just mutated under erosion.
But the bones and blood of humans, under Abyss Dust, would gradually be devoured into nothingness.
This was the difference in erosion between Abyss Dust affecting humans and beasts.
And the core that caused beasts to become Abyss Beasts...
As the beast's body exploded, a black round bead was pinched between Yun Che's five fingers.
That should have been the Xuan Dan of a Xuan Beast, equivalent to a human's profound veins. But this "Xuan Dan" in Yun Che's hand had every bit of its existence completely eroded and tightly bound by Abyss Dust.
The dust mist rising from it was so thick it was almost pitch black.
Yun Che's brow suddenly twitched violently... This thing should be the Abyss Core.
The first time he heard the term "Abyss Core" was from Yun Xi.
She had used the dense Abyss Dust released by an Abyss Core to destroy her own face.
Once again, Yun Che stood still, holding the Abyss Core in his hand for a long time without moving. Even Li Suo didn't know what he was perceiving.
Sssshhh!!
Another black shadow shot out, lunging straight at Yun Che.
This time, Yun Che reacted very early, but he didn't strike. He simply turned his gaze toward it.
This was an Abyss Beast very similar in form to the previous one, surrounded by gray mist, its eyes like ghostly flames. However, its destructive aura was much weaker, only at the Divine King Realm.
Even when it was less than ten zhang away, Yun Che still didn't strike. He just stared intently at the rapidly approaching gray shadow, his desperately released divine sense clearly touching the Abyss Core within it... and then every wisp of Abyss Dust inside.
The gray shadow's forward speed suddenly slowed. Then the "ghostly flames" in its eyes began to churn abnormally, and the gray mist around its body swayed chaotically as if blown by a wild wind.
Its speed grew slower and slower, and even its biting movements became visibly distorted... Gradually, when it was still three feet away from Yun Che, it stopped there.
Abyss Beasts have no consciousness, only the instinct to destroy. This was a basic understanding known to all beings in the abyss.
"You actually..."
Li Suo's voice was soft and faint, but clearly carried deep astonishment.
The essence of Abyss Dust was a power of annihilation at a level so high it was beyond common laws and principles.
Yet this Abyss Beast had stopped its instinct to destroy in front of Yun Che.
At this moment, Yun Che extended his arm—but the movement of extending his arm was extremely stiff and slow, and his features tightened sharply, as if he was resisting some enormous resistance or pain.
Almost all of his soul power was intensely focused on the Abyss Core of the beast before him, like a madman, trying to touch the densely packed... seemingly infinite Abyss Dust within.
And his slowly raised arm was the completely subconscious guiding movement of his body as he desperately exerted his soul power.
The moment his arm was fully raised, the Abyss Beast that had been about to pounce on Yun Che suddenly turned around and bolted in the opposite direction until it completely disappeared into the gray mist.
Plop!
Yun Che's vision went black, and he fell straight from the air, crashing heavily to the ground.
His face was pale, his forehead instantly covered in cold sweat. But he just propped himself up on the ground and let out a strange laugh.
"Heh... hehehe... hahahaha..."
"Are you... alright?" Li Suo's voice carried a hint of unease.
"I'm fine." Yun Che stood up, the corner of his mouth still holding a lingering smile. "I just discovered something... incredible."
"What you're talking about... could it be controlling Abyss Beasts?" Her elegant, ethereal fairy voice uttered words that tore apart the most basic understanding of the abyss.
"Not yet." Yun Che shook his head, but his words were not a complete denial. "But it won't be long."
Li Suo remained silent for a long time.
"Hoo... take it slow." Yun Che gazed into the distance. At this moment, the look in his eyes toward this mist sea had completely changed. "First, find a new place to refine the Divine Origin, Origin Blood, and Origin Marrow given by the Qilin God."
"Also, the Great Dao Pagoda Art... finally shows signs of change. My body has indeed reached the time for transformation."
According to the records of the Great Dao Pagoda Art, the first six realms were those of the mortal body, but from the seventh realm onward... only a divine body could bear it!
"It seems I'll be staying in the mist sea for a long time to come."
He had originally only chosen to hide temporarily in the mist sea, planning to leave after fusing the Evil God Seed. But now, he suddenly didn't want to leave.
After resting his spirit for a while, before leaving, Yun Che suddenly glanced at his left arm.
In his vague feeling, some power within his bloodline... seemed to have changed.
He raised his left arm and urged the Arcane Firmament to shoot out.
But in the next instant, he froze completely.
The Arcane Firmament of the Yun clan was weakest at red and strongest at purple. His Arcane Firmament had always been the most special, growing along with him, from its initial red to purple.
And according to Yun clan records, above purple there was an extremely special golden Arcane Firmament, capable of carrying 100% of the main body's power!
But even the person who left that record had noted it was merely a legend, never actually seen by anyone.
He had summoned his Arcane Firmament, clearly perceiving its existence... but the world in front of him showed no trace of any Arcane Firmament shadow.
Because it was...
A colorless Arcane Firmament!?
