Chapter 162 Ch 162: The Truth Of Infinity Symbol
Ye Xiao once thought that as a treasure that came from beyond the Heavens, it is very normal for Domineering God Crystal to sense valuable treasures or people who possess valuable treasures.
It was only now he understood that that was not the case.
The Lotus of Chaos asked him what it had told Ye Xiao back then about the Infinity Symbol and how it came into being.
Ye Xiao remembered everything very well.
He remembered that the Domineering God Crystal at that time told him that the Infinity Symbol was a treasure created by Infinity Emperor who came from Spiritas Race.
Infinity Symbol is a treasure closely related to souls and Martial Spirits. And the reason Domineering God Crystal gave Ye Xiao was because its creator came from the Spiritas Race which in another world was also called Soul Race.
Now that Ye Xiao thinks about it, he became aware of two Overlord forces of Chaos when he was still living in a Source Universe. One is the Calamity Family and the other one is the Spiritas Race.
Although Calamity Family is called a family, it was actually also a different race.
Ye Xiao come to know about the Calamity Family after the Domineering God Crystal provided him with the Bloodline of Calamity. Ye Xiao also obtained a skill called <Casual Punishment> from this bloodline, which also became the reason for his death and rebirth.
As for the Spiritas Race, it is a very powerful yet very pure race. The people of this race don't have physical bodies, they are more like souls. Spiritas Race is also very special because, unlike all other races present in Chaos, this race cultivates Soul Essence instead of Chaos Energy.
Well, Abyssals are also special because they also do not cultivate chaos energy but Abyssal Energy.
Anyway, as far as the current Ye Xiao knows, there are seven overlord forces in Chaos. Calamity Clan is one of those seven forces. These seven forces also oversee seven forbidden lands.
Aside from the six overlord forces including the Calamity Family that control six Forbidden Lands, the Spiritas Race is the seventh overlord force of chaos that controls a Sacred Forbidden Land of Chaos.
It is widely known matter that there are Six Forbidden Lands controlled by six overlord families. Then there is the Sacred Forbidden Land controlled by the Spiritas Race. And aside from these seven, there are two Unique Forbidden Lands.
These two unique forbidden lands are the Land of Nine Hells and the Land of No Return.
These two forbidden lands are unique because both of these lands are void of even a single strand of chaos energy.
The Land of Nine Hells is where Abyssals lives and is filled with Abyssal Energy. As for the Land of No Return, the First King of Chaos did something that completely made it void of chaos energy. It is also because of this reason this land could become a perfect prison to seal Yu Tian, his first disciple.
As a controller of the only Sacred Forbidden Land of Chaos, the Spiritas Race is much stronger than the other six overlord forces. This is also why no one wants to be an enemy of Spiritas Race.
When Ye Xiao was inside the second universe, the Domineering God Crystal told Ye Xiao that Spiritas Race is a race of very pure beings, completely unrelated to Chaos itself. Their origins are very mysterious and even it did not know about them.
According to the Domineering God Crystal (Seed of Lotus of Chaos), the Spiritas Race cultivates Soul Essence and they are the only race who were able to do this. Aside from them, no other race could cultivate Soul Essence. Even if it is a person born from the combination of two different races, one spiritas race and the other one from a different race, even the child born from them would not be able to cultivate Soul Essence.
Because of this, the Spiritas Race is very unique and different.
Infinity Emperor of the Spiritas Race decided to create a treasure that could make cultivating Soul Essence possible for people from other races. He wanted to create this type of treasure to let those half-blooded people born from the love between a person of Spiritas Race and another person from a different race cultivate Soul Essence.
In the end, he created the Inifinty-shaped Treasure. Although they succeeded, this treasure somehow ended up being only an Empyrean-ranked Treasure.
How could the Spiritas Race, as one of the Overlord Forces that has the strength to dominate the entire chaos, look up to an Empyrean-ranked Treasure?
Thus, the Spiritas Race chose to throw the Infinity Symbol into the Void of Chaos which somehow ended up entering the Second Source Universe and fused with Qin Feng.
This was what the Domineering God Crystal told Ye Xiao at that time. It told Ye Xiao that while it was traveling in the void of chaos, it encountered the Infinity Symbol. Then it started bringing this treasure along, but when it was entering the Heavens, the Infinity Symbol fell into the Second Universe because the Heavens were at war against the Second Universe at that time and there were simply too much chaos and riot in both universes.
According to the Domineering God Crystal, there were two drops of Soul Essence hidden deep inside the Mysterious Space of the Infinity Symbol. It wanted Ye Xiao to take those two drops of Soul Essence.
In the end, the Infinity Symbol belonged to Qin Feng. Thus Ye Xiao had to give Qin Feng a drop of Soul Essence.
Well, this was the entire story of Ye Xiao's journey in the second universe.
Before Ye Xiao left the second universe, Qin Feng told Ye Xiao four words. Those words were 'Let's meet in Chaos'.
The Lotus of Chaos asked Ye Xiao two questions. Does he still remember what it told Ye Xiao about the Infinity Symbol? How does the Infinity Symbol come into being?
And Ye Xiao's answer was to explain everything he remembered.
The Lotus of Chaos was satisfied with Ye Xiao's answer. Obviously, it liked the fact that Ye Xiao still remembered every word it told Ye Xiao at that time.
Then it explained, "Actually, I lied when I told Infinity Emperor created the Infinity Symbol and Infinity Symbol is an Empyrean-ranked Treasure. I lied because you were too weak at that time to truly understand how vast Chaos is and how incredible of a treasure the Infinity Symbol is."
"It is not because Infinity Emperor created the Infinity Symbol that it is shaped like Infinity Sign and has the word "Infinity" in its name. In fact, it is because of Infinity Symbol a little boy grew in strength and became the Emperor of Spiritas Race. He called himself Infinity Emperor because of the Infinity Symbol."
"Infinity Symbol is a treasure that is closely related to souls."
"When I and Infinity Symbol were separated, we both were in our initial phase and could not control our strength and abilities well. I was later obtained by a person of Calamity Clan while the Infinity Symbol was obtained by a little boy of Spiritas Clan."
"This is also the reason why I was able to steal the Bloodline of Calamity that I later fused into your body. And it is also the reason why Infinity Symbol managed to steal two drops of Soul Essence from Infinity Emperor and hid them inside its mysterious space."
"This is all for our one ultimate plan that my mother, the First Lotus of Chaos left for us to complete."
"And you, Ye Xiao, have now become a part of that plan."
Ye Xiao, not knowing what to say, took a deep breath, so deep that he almost forgot to exhale for a long time.
It was only when he came back to his senses that he exhaled and again inhaled air.
His body was trembling now. This gave a big fright to the people guarding him outside. But Ye Xiao was in no mood to pay attention to those people.
He wanted to ask what exactly that plan is, but before he could ask, the Lotus of Chaos again said, "If you want to ask about that plan, then forget it. I'm not gonna tell you anything now. If you want to know, then first complete my requirement. Raise your cultivation base to at least at the level of Mystic Sovereign Realm and gather at least 100 Rule Source Crystals. You only have one Rule Source Crystal in your possession, there are 99 more to go."
Since asking anything was useless, Ye Xiao did not bother to ask. He started thinking of everything he gained from this exchange of information with the Lotus of Chaos.
Well, calling it an exchange of information is really a shameless thing. But let us call it that way for now.
Ye Xiao thought over and over again and then, he once again let out a bitter sigh. He could only laugh helplessly in his heart.
