    "Star Master? Our has never had a Star Lord, and for tens of thousands of years, no one was able to establish a connection with our star soul. In the past, our purple cloud was very safe, and no major disasters urred. That was until ten years ago, when the remains of a star crashed into The Purple Cloud Neb, and countless giant ves invaded our home. "Countless cities were destroyed, and we''re the only ones left alive." Recalling what had happened back then, a trace of sadness shed in Ziyan''s eyes, and his tone was a little heavy. Everything that happened at that time was unbearable to look back on.


    "How many of you survived?"


    "I don''t know. There are about 200000 people in this area. I don''t know if there are any other survivors in other parts of the." Zi Yan shook his head sadly. The number of giant ves was simply too astonishing, and they had tightly guarded the surface of the, making it impossible for them to contact people from other regions.


    With the size of the city on the surface, it could amodate at least tens of millions of people. Now, there were only about 200000 people left. One could imagine how tragic a catastrophe it was. The entire purple cloud only had one old servant and three war emperors. No wonder it was in such a miserable state.


    "Have you guys seen a woman? Her name is ruoyun, and she''s from the heaven''s origin just like me. " Ye chen asked, not sure if ruoyun had managed to escape.


    "A woman named ruoyun?" Zi Yan carefully recalled, then shook his head.  there''s no one called ruoyun among the people we''ve brought in.


    Ye chen sighed in his heart. Whether ruoyun could survive or not would depend on her luck.


    we''ve received two war emperors. One is called the me Emperor and the other is the primitive Emperor. They''re both from your Tianyuan.


    "Only two battle emperors?" Ye chen frowned slightly.


    I''ve heard that a total of 13 war emperors havee to the heaven''s origin, but we''ve only received two of them. The two war emperors didn''t dare to use their psyches to search for the traces of the other war emperors. It would be troublesome if the giant ves were to be lured here.  Zi Yan said.


    "The me Emperor? Take me to them." Ye chen said. Two members of the ye n and a disciple of the star temple had acknowledged the me Emperor as their master, so ye chen could still talk to the me Emperor.


    Ye chen was somewhat puzzled. Since the me Emperor and the others were still alive, why did they not think of a way to leave? The teleportation channel on the spirit Fire was always open. As long as they found thending point of the teleportation channel here, they could set up a teleportation array and leave. This should not be a difficult task for the me Emperor and the others.


    Could it be that they were also swept away by the space-time undercurrent and didn''t know where the dimensional gateway wouldnd?


    "You know the me Emperor? That''s great, I''ll take you to see him immediately." Zi Yan said happily. When they heard ye chen say that he knew the me Emperor, the other members of the purple eye n showed some respect to ye chen. It could be seen how respected a battle Emperor on the Ziyun was.


    Those who were able to reach thebat Emperor realm on Zi Yun were the war gods who protected the. When the giant ves invaded the, the threebat emperors had made great contributions and saved countless people. At the same time, they also held great respect for thebat emperors from the Tian Yuan.


    He didn''t know when the giant ves wouldunch a crazy attack on the survivors hiding underground. The few battle-emperors might be able to protect them. Besides, if the Ziyun and the Tianyuan formed an alliance, the chances of survival would increase by a lot.


    After all, the heaven''s origin had ten God servants and more than a hundred battle emperors. Its strength far exceeded that of The Purple Cloud.


    Ye chen could not help but smile wryly. The Tianyuan had thought of every possible way to send people to the Ziyun, thinking that there were many powerful people on the Ziyun who could help them fight against the ancestral fiend. On the other hand, the Ziyun had ced all their hopes on the Tianyuan.


    Under the guidance of Zi Yan and the others, ye chen passed through a deep and narrow tunnel and went deep underground.


    In order to avoid the gargantuan ve and ancestral fiend, they had dug tens of thousands of meters deep and set upyers of defense. It was clear how much they feared the gargantuan ve and the ancestral fiend.


    Half an hourter, they finally entered an open space. There were many low houses built here, like a vige. It was even worse than the shanty town in Yanyun sacred city, and it was very crowded.


    The Purple Cloud was dominated by humans. There were all kinds of races with different appearances. Some had extremely big ears, some had blue hair, and some had long limbs. The purple eye n only made up a small portion of them.


    "The meeting hall is up ahead." Zi Yan pointed to a slightlyrger house not far away and led ye chen forward.


    There were many people standing on both sides of the street. These people who had survived the catastrophe were at least experts of the divine or Dao profound level. They all looked at ye chen curiously. In their eyes, ye chen was clearly an anomaly, just like the war Emperor from the Tianyuan.


    Ye chen followed Zi Yan and the others into the meeting hall and saw a familiar face. It was the me Emperor. Other than the me Emperor, there was another primitive Emperor. He had seen so many strange-looking people outside and finally saw two normal ones. He immediately felt a sense of familiarity.


    The me Emperor and the primitive Emperor looked like ordinary, handsome young men. The me Emperor was more straightforward, while the primitive Emperor looked more reserved.


    "Ye chen, it''s you?" When the me Emperor saw ye chen, he was somewhat surprised. He clearly did not expect ye chen to appear here.


    "Ye chen pays his respects to the two battle emperors." Ye chen cupped his hands.


    "Ye chen, you don''t have to be so polite with us." The me Emperor smiled and waved his hand, " why are you here? "


    "I have a deity realm clone." Ye chen exined, " I wanted toe in and see what the purple ring is like. I wanted to see if I could send out some information.


    "Godly state clone? You''re so young and you''ve already cultivated the Tian Yuan secret technique of God Realm clone!" The me Emperor asked in surprise.


    The primitive Emperor also looked at ye chen in surprise. A Tianyuan secret technique at the level of the deity avatar would take years or even decades to cultivate, even for the most talented person. Moreover, many people with physiques were not suitable to cultivate the deity avatar and might never be able to cultivate it. Most people would rarely choose to cultivate such a difficult Tianyuan secret technique.


    Normally, battle-emperors would only focus on one Tian Yuan secret technique, and they would only choose the ones with high damage potential. Very few people would spend so much effort on a support-type secret technique like the deity avatar. The battle-emperors would also cultivate other life-saving secret techniques. Of course, they would usually choose the ones that were less difficult to cultivate.


    after the battle emperors entered the dimensional gateway, there has been no news from them for a long time. The people of the heaven''s origin said that all thirteen battle emperors died here. Since the two of you are still alive, why didn''t you send someone to send a message to the heaven''s origin? " Ye chen asked, puzzled.


    The me Emperor and the primitive Emperor looked at each other, sighed and smiled bitterly, " "It''s not that we don''t want to send a message, but we''re trapped here."


    "We''re trapped here?" Ye chen was puzzled.


    "When you first entered The Purple Cloud Star, did you encounter a space-time undercurrent?" The me Emperor asked.


    "Not bad." Ye chen nodded. Thinking of the situation back then, ye chen still had lingering fears.


    "The surroundings of The Purple Cloud Star are filled with the spacetime Dao patterns left behind by the twelve star masters, forming the purple ring Neb. The transmission channel was distorted when it passed through the purple ring Neb, and the surroundings were filled with spacetime undercurrents. We can teleport in from the outside, but we can''t use the teleportation channel to teleport out. If they were to encounter spacetime undercurrents while teleporting in from the outside, they would at most deviate from their course and stillnd on The Purple Cloud Star. However, if they were to encounter spacetime undercurrents while teleporting out, they would end up in an endless starry sky! Even a war Emperor would die in the boundless starry sky!" The me Emperorughed bitterly.  so, we can forget about getting out of the purple ring!


    So that''s how it is, you can only enter The Purple Cloud, but you can''t leave?


    "What about the other war emperors?" Ye chen asked. There were thirteen battle-emperors.


    "There were fivebat emperors who were surrounded and killed. We don''t know where the rest of them are. We were separated, but we didn''t dare to search for their location." The primitive Emperor''s voice was hoarse, and his eyes shed with a touch of sadness.


    "There''s a deity servant here. If it wasn''t for the deity servant using a secret technique to help us escape, we would probably be dead by now." The me Emperor sighed.


    Ye chen had heard from Zi Yan that they had a servant, but that servant was already old.


    Even the God-servant powerhouses, after breaking through the limit of human lifespan, would start to decline after living for two or three thousand years. By five thousand years old, they would be very old, and by six thousand years old, they would reach the end of their life.


    Apart from some races with special bloodlines, there were some inherited secret techniques that could survive for a longer time. However, unless they entered a state of hibernation for a long time, the souls of the strong would eventually slowly erode over the long years.


    This was an irreversible process. Every living being had a limit, and they would never be able to reach the true undying realm.


    the battle emperors encountered an ancestral fiend? "


    "No, it''s a group of high-grade giant ves. Each one of them is no weaker than abat Emperor, and there are more than a hundred of them. ording to the Lord servant, all the giant ves on Ziyun obey a leader, and only that leader is an ancestral fiend. No one on The Purple Cloud has ever seen that ancestral fiend, but that Lord servant can sense his existence." The me Emperor said. Speaking of ancestral fiends, the me Emperor''s expression turned serious.


    The ancestral fiend was a dark cloud in everyone''s hearts that could not be dispelled!


    "What kind of existence is an ancestral fiend?" Ye chen asked. So far, he had only seen a few giant ves. The legendary ancestral fiend was still shrouded in a mysterious veil.


    The me Emperor seemed to be considering his words, and after a moment of silence, he said,  ancestral fiends can be divided into three forms. The first form is a youngling. It''s like a ghost that is shapeless and invisible. It floats in the universe. At that time, it''s very fragile and can be easily killed. However, there were many infant ancestral fiends. There was almost an endless number of them, so there were bound to be some who survived. The second type was a parasite. It lived in the host''s body. The host could be an Astral Soul, a human, a mystical beast, or a celestial beast. At this time, they could control the host''s thoughts and constantly learn and cultivate the ancestral fiend''s inherited secret technique, allowing themselves to slowly be stronger. The third is the adult form. They break through the host''s shell and be an extremely terrifying existence in the universe. Adult ancestral fiends are very powerful and have at least the cultivation of a deity servant. They will form groups and devour star souls. After Devouring Star souls, the ancestral fiends will be extremely terrifying and can reach the cultivation of a Star Lord, and some even surpass Star Lords!"
