After reading Fen Xiao’s mory, Lu Chen’s whole deanor beca serious, with his brows tightly knitted.
Seeing Lu Chen like this, Xiyue Immortal Venerate cautiously asked, "Are you still Lu Chen?"
When refining another’s Divine Soul, if one’s own Divine Soul isn’t stronger, and the other’s still has consciousness, it’s possible to be counter-refined.
Seeing Lu Chen standing dumbfounded, Xiyue Immortal Venerate felt a trace of doubt inside.
Although it was just a residual soul, it was a Great Power’s residual soul, not weak in Divine Soul Power, and if careless, could indeed be counter-refined.
Upon hearing Xiyue Immortal Venerate’s words, Lu Chen snapped back to reality, turned his head to look at Xiyue Immortal Venerate, and saw her watching him warily.
Lu Chen understood what Xiyue Immortal Venerate was worried about, so he said, "I’m fine, I just read so of his mories and find them sowhat unbelievable."
Hearing Lu Chen’s response, Xiyue Immortal Venerate relaxed a bit and curiously asked, "What is the world outside the Tianyan Immortal Domain like?"
Xiyue Immortal Venerate had always believed that her ancestors ca from Outer Heaven, not from the Tianyan Immortal Domain, for her cultivation thods were different from typical Immortals. If she could break through to beco a Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, she could directly beco an Immortal Emperor, which piqued her interest in the world beyond.
Lu Chen didn’t respond verbally; instead, he condensed the mories he had just refined into a mory Pearl and handed it to Xiyue Immortal Venerate, saying, "See for yourself."
Xiyue Immortal Venerate imdiately beca vigilant, staring directly into Lu Chen’s eyes, and said, "Why don’t you just tell yourself?"
Lu Chen chuckled lightly, "You’re really quite timid."
Clearly, Xiyue Immortal Venerate was still worried about Lu Chen being counter-refined, suspecting the current him wasn’t Lu Chen.
With a blank expression, Xiyue Immortal Venerate said, "Better safe than sorry."
Lu Chen said, "Alright, I’ll just tell you."
"Outside the Tianyan Immortal Domain, there are two worlds: the Deceit Realm and the Spirit Realm."
"Back then, when the Deceit Realm invaded the Spirit Realm, due to certain reasons, both sides were drawn into this world."
"At that ti, this world hadn’t yet beco the Tianyan Immortal Domain; it was a void of chaos, and the entire space was filled with Chaos Qi, constantly eroding their bodies."
"Later, a God Realm Great Power from the Spirit Realm killed so Spirit Realm experts, using their physical bodies and power to create the Tianyan Immortal Domain, and imprisoned so Spirit Realm people beneath it. Whenever a Spirit Realm person fell, their inner power would transform into Immortal Aura."
Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Xiyue Immortal Venerate was also astounded, realizing that the Tianyan Immortal Domain was created by soone, and the Immortal Aura they absorbed was actually the transford energy of Spirit Realm beings.
After regaining her composure, Xiyue Immortal Venerate said, "So, does this an that we are descendants of the Deceit Realm or the Spirit Realm people?"
Lu Chen replied, "He was just a residual soul, many mories are lost. Whether we are descendants of Spirit Realm or Deceit Realm people, it’s hard to say."
"However, we’re most likely descendants of Spirit Realm people. From the mories I’ve seen, the Deceit Realm is inhabited by eerie creatures. They invaded the Spirit Realm to harvest its vitality and Qi Fortune."
"Additionally, eerie creatures are imperishable, and we don’t possess their characteristics, so we should be descendants of Spirit Realm people."
Xiyue Immortal Venerate fell into deep thought. After an unknown period, she suddenly rembered the opportunity in the Small World and hurriedly asked, "By the way, since you refined his Divine Soul and read his mories, you should know what opportunities exist within the Small World, right?"
They entered this Small World for the opportunities, and now that this Small World’s owner’s residual soul has been refined, finding the opportunities would be much easier.
Generally, a Great Power’s residual soul is left to guard their legacy or opportunities they left behind, so a residual soul often knows all the opportunities within a Small World and how to obtain them.
Lu Chen said sowhat helplessly, "According to the mories I gleaned, when that person fell, he had no treasures, nor left any legacy."
"He left this residual soul here to see if he could find soone reincarnated from the Spirit Realm and deliver a ssage back to his original Sect."
"However, after his fall, a part of his obsession rged with this residual soul, leading it to refuse to simply perish. Thus, it used the Heavenly Ladder to absorb the Divine Soul Power of Immortals, weakening their Divine Souls, and nurturing its own residual soul by consuming Spirit Realm Divine Souls, in a vain attempt to resurrect."
Xiyue Immortal Venerate’s face turned extrely stiff, "Does that an we all made this trip for nothing?"
Lu Chen said, "It appears that way now."
Xiyue Immortal Venerate fell silent once more, though she still believed in her instincts. Since she foresaw sothing she needed inside this Small World, it implied there might be sothing attracting her here.
However, she didn’t doubt Lu Chen, perhaps the mories he accessed did not indeed contain any opportunities.
There must be sothing Lu Chen didn’t perceive as an opportunity, but for her, it could be.
Opportunities are subjective; what is an opportunity for oneself isn’t necessarily one for others.
Just then, a thought struck Xiyue Immortal Venerate, and she abruptly rembered sothing.
Then she looked into Lu Chen’s eyes and asked, "Were there any mories about a Beast Core in that residual soul’s mory?"
Hearing the question, Lu Chen confusedly asked, "A Beast Core?"
Xiyue Immortal Venerate said, "If he could transform into a Phoenix, that proves he was from the Demon Race, and all Demon Race beings have a Beast Core."
Lu Chen reevaluated Fen Xiao’s mories and found that they did not contain any references to a Beast Core.
"There was no mory of a Beast Core in his mories."
Hearing this, Xiyue Immortal Venerate breathed a sigh of relief, believing she hadn’t co for nothing.
Lu Chen asked, "Do you want his Beast Core?"
Xiyue Immortal Venerate replied, "If I could absorb the power of his Beast Core, my strength could significantly enhance."
After all, he was a Great Power from Outer Heaven, and his Beast Core must be rich in demonic power, an incredible nourishnt for any Demon Race mber. Absorbing the power within his Beast Core might allow her to directly break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm.
Of course, she didn’t ntion that breaking through to the Immortal Emperor Realm directly in front of Lu Chen, for she was still concerned that if Lu Chen knew she might beco an Immortal Emperor after absorbing the Beast Core, he might try to stop her.
This guy had designs on her body, and if she beca an Immortal Emperor, he’d be out of luck. Hence, he might find ways to prevent her breakthrough.
