Chapter 615: No Help in Sight
Chapter 615: No Help in Sight
In a hidden secret realm of the void, scorching flames of rebirth coalesced into the figure of the Great Sage Nine Phoenix.
"Why did the Galaxy Great Sage only target me and Shadow Demon?" The Great Sage Nine Phoenix's thoughts were in turmoil. As a miraculous life form born from the chaotic void, she naturally possessed two main bodies. Normally, she would use her primary combat body to venture out. The one now hidden in this secret realm was her other main body. Additionally, she had set up life-saving measures in various corners of the chaotic void. Even if both main bodies were destroyed, she could still use these measures to 'esurrect.'
"Is it because of the battles between Shadow Demon and me that entire universes are prematurely collapsing?" The Great Sage Nine Phoenix mused to herself. Losing her primary combat body was a significant loss, but not one she couldn't accept. She had already prepared for the possibility of her primary combat body being destroyed while battling Shadow Demon.
Now that her primary combat body was indeed destroyed, but Shadow Demon’s primary combat body was also destroyed, it wasn't the worst outcome for her. In fact, she was quite satisfied with the result of taking out one of Shadow Demon's main bodies.
The chaotic power path she cultivated was primarily for life-saving measures. Under normal circumstances, she could only restrain Shadow Demon, and it would be very difficult for both to suffer mutual destruction.
What the Great Sage Nine Phoenix wanted to understand was why the Galaxy Great Sage treated her and Shadow Demon differently from the other Great Sages of the chaotic void.
"Whatever, the Galaxy Great Sage has a grudge against me and Shadow Demon. If I continue to battle Shadow Demon, the Galaxy Great Sage might show up again."
A Frenzied Radiance emerged in Nine Phoenix's eyes. She and Shadow Demon were deeply entwined in a causal connection, allowing her to sense the approximate location of his true self through their shared fate.
"There."
The Great Sage Nine Phoenix looked in a specific direction. Using the causal connection, she determined that the source of Shadow Demon's causal origin was in that position.
Whoosh!
The Great Sage Nine Phoenix's figure disappeared, immediately heading toward the area where Shadow Demon was located.
"Is the Galaxy Great Sage acting out of sympathy for the beings in the affected universes, which is why he attacked us?"
The Great Sage Shadow Demon's expression was grim. Through the last words Lin Yuan spoke, he deduced this conclusion. He found it increasingly hard to believe.
Such a powerful being, to still be so benevolent?
"Hmm?"
At that moment, the Great Sage Shadow Demon's expression changed. He suddenly looked up in a certain direction. The causal connection between him and the Great Sage Nine Phoenix was mutual. Just as she could sense him, he could also sense her. At this moment, he clearly felt that the Great Sage Nine Phoenix's main body was rapidly approaching him.
"Madwoman, Nine Phoenix, you madwoman."
The Great Sage Shadow Demon's scalp tingled. Normally, after losing a main combat body, one should hide in a corner and cultivate to recover. But for the Great Sage Nine Phoenix to unhesitantly mobilize her last main body was simply unbelievable.
"Is Nine Phoenix trying to attract the Galaxy Great Sage's attention and then take me down with her?"
The Great Sage Shadow Demon immediately understood the Great Sage Nine Phoenix's intention.
Even with her last main body, the Great Sage Nine Phoenix couldn't do much to him. However, if they continued to battle, when the Galaxy Great Sage emerged from the Mystic Yellow Universe, he would surely notice them first.
Given the Galaxy Great Sage's disdain for them earlier, he might even come to finish them off. The Great Sage Nine Phoenix couldn't do much to him, but the Galaxy Great Sage could.
But this way, the Great Sage Shadow Demon would die, and the Great Sage Nine Phoenix wouldn't escape either. The Great Sage Nine Phoenix was clearly determined to drag him down with her.
"Run."
The Great Sage Shadow Demon immediately fled into the void, heading to a more distant area. He dared not tangle with the Great Sage Nine Phoenix now.
In a distant void domain, before a vast secret realm, a towering figure coalesced, the avatar of the Great Sage Wild Savage.
After appearing, the Great Sage Wild Savage looked at the distant secret realm. The owner of this secret realm was another Great Sage of the chaotic void, even stronger than himself.
Soon, the Great Sage Wild Savage's avatar entered the secret realm.
"Brother Stone Light." The Great Sage Wild Savage saw a three-eyed man.
This three-eyed man was the Great Sage Stone Light, who had roamed many void domains hundreds of cosmic epochs ago, his combat power reaching the peak of a Great Sage of the chaotic void. However, in the last hundred cosmic epochs, the Great Sage Stone Light had hardly acted, focusing on cultivation to prepare for advancing to the 13th stage.
"Wild Savage, you've come."
The Great Sage Stone Light glanced at the Great Sage Wild Savage and spoke.
"Yes."
The Great Sage Wild Savage nodded. While he was extremely reckless outside, he was quite well-behaved in front of the Great Sage Stone Light.
"Brother Stone Light's strength is becoming even more unfathomable. From my perspective, you have a great chance of advancing to the 13th stage. When you become a Time Being in the future, I hope you remember me."
The Great Sage Wild Savage immediately flattered him.
"13th stage?" The Great Sage Stone Light's face showed a hint of a smile. No Great Sage of the chaotic void would refuse to hear such words, not even the peerless Great Sage.

"Let's get straight to the point."
Great Sage Stone Light looked at Great Sage Reckless.
"Brother Stone Light, you should know about my recent misfortune," Great Sage Reckless immediately said. "A Posterior Universe emerged, and I used the power of the Eye of Myriad Laws to arrive as quickly as possible. However, I was suppressed by an ancient Great Sage named Galaxy inside it."
"Yes, I've heard about it."
Great Sage Stone Light nodded.
"That Great Sage Galaxy demanded I hand over ten billion chaos stones to release my main combat avatar. As you know, I've always been poor. Where could I possibly find ten billion chaos stones?"
Great Sage Reckless sighed.
"Indeed."
Great Sage Stone Light nodded again.
"Hmm?"
Great Sage Reckless looked at Great Sage Stone Light, who only nodded.
"Brother Stone Light, I came to you because I need you to intervene with Great Sage Galaxy. With your power, Great Sage Galaxy will surely show you respect."
Great Sage Reckless continued, "I don't expect you to pay any chaos stones, but ten billion is too much. At the very least, I hope you can negotiate it down to five billion. I'll offer you one billion as a reward."
"Negotiate with Great Sage Galaxy?" Great Sage Stone Light looked at Great Sage Reckless. "What if I get suppressed by Great Sage Galaxy too?"
"Suppressed by him too?" Great Sage Reckless was taken aback. "With your power, that shouldn't happen, right?"
"Reckless, think about it again?" Great Sage Stone Light smiled. "Great Sage Galaxy suppressed eight of you and almost kept Dual Origin. I can't do that."
Great Sage Stone Light looked at Great Sage Reckless with a self-deprecating smile. "Reckless, I can't help you with this."
"Brother Stone Light!" Great Sage Reckless became anxious. "I can offer two billion chaos stones, no, three billion."
"I said, I can't help."
Great Sage Stone Light waved his hand, and Great Sage Reckless's avatar was instantly moved outside the secret realm.
Rumbling.
The entrance to the secret realm was quickly closing.
"Great Sage Stone Light."
Great Sage Reckless frowned, with no other options, he could only seek help from the next Chaos Great Sage.
"Black Obsidian, you want me to help you?"
In a special, mysterious place, surrounded by mist, a man with a blurred face sat on a throne, looking down at the avatar of Great Sage Black Obsidian.
"Yes."
"Back when we ventured, I saved you once, and you said you owed me a favor."
Great Sage Black Obsidian looked at the man on the throne. This Chaos Great Sage's power was already close to the level of a World-Transcending Great Sage. If his path of chaos evolution had been suitable, he would have already reached that level.
"Yes, I owe you a favor."
The man on the throne nodded. "But I can't help with this."
"Can't help?"
Great Sage Black Obsidian looked at him.
"Why don't you ask a World-Transcending Great Sage to intervene?" the man on the throne asked.
"Ask a World-Transcending Great Sage?"
Great Sage Black Obsidian shook his head. "That would be worse than just giving ten billion chaos stones."
The cost of asking a World-Transcending Great Sage to intervene would definitely exceed ten billion chaos stones.
Great Sage Black Obsidian wasn't stupid and wouldn't make a losing deal.
"Let's swap something else," the man on the throne looked down at Great Sage Black Obsidian. "Swap for something else."
"What can I swap now?" Great Sage Black Obsidian frowned. "My avatar is in Great Sage Galaxy's hands."
"You can still swap," the man on the throne said. "For example, I can lend you a few billion chaos stones."
The man on the throne added, "But it's just a loan. You'll have to pay it back."
"..."
Great Sage Black Obsidian fell silent.
In the Aurora Universe
Lin Yuan examined the Dark Sky Heart in his hand.
The Dark Sky Heart was a treasure at the level of a World-Transcending Great Sage. Once fully refined, it could form a Dark Sky Domain.
The power of the Dark Sky Domain far exceeded the Black Obsidian Domain of Great Sage Black Obsidian. Even an ordinary Chaos Great Sage, upon obtaining the Dark Sky Heart, could become a peak Great Sage. If a World-Transcending Great Sage refined the Dark Sky Heart, they could create a Dark Sky World, whose power would not be much weaker than Lin Yuan's external universe.
It was important to note that Lin Yuan's external universe originated from his internal universe. After merging and devouring the Blazing Sun Origin and refining the Infinite Void to its second level, his internal universe was already on par with the internal universes of World-Transcending Great Sages.
The Dark Sky World, formed from the Dark Sky Heart, served as a sort of compensation for World-Transcending Great Sages who lacked domain suppression techniques.
However, compared to Lin Yuan's internal universe, the Dark Sky World had a fixed upper limit. The power it possessed when formed would remain unchanged, while Lin Yuan's internal universe still had a vast potential for further enhancement.
"Now, in this Aurora Universe, only a few Chaos Venerables remain."
Lin Yuan's mind slightly moved, and he dispatched numerous avatars to various regions of the universe.
Having dealt with all the Chaos Great Sages, Lin Yuan was not about to let the numerous treasures and rarities within the Aurora Universe slip through his fingers. At the very least, he would secure the treasures and rarities recorded on the animal skin map.
Hundreds of avatars were sent to retrieve the scattered treasures and rarities throughout the universe.
Meanwhile, Lin Yuan's true self headed straight for the deepest part of the Aurora Universe, toward the tomb.
