After being mysteriously healed and revitalized, Li Chen converses with a mysterious young man who claims to be the Endless Dreamer. The young man reveals he is trapped in his own fantasy, unable to leave, and describes the innermost area as a solitary grave. Li Chen is deeply affected, vowing not to end up like the Dreamer and contemplates his next path. Meanwhile, a group from the Tree Realm Universe, led by the Origin Realm powerhouse Tai Chu, cautiously navigates the dangerous Cosmic Ruins on a critical mission.

The Cosmic Ruins is an extremely terrifying place.

Because even the top powerhouses face danger of death at any time here.

Regarding the Vast Nihility, many things, almost all substances, are not allowed to exist. Once they appear, they are directly ’negated’ by the established Law of the Vast Nihility.

Yet here, various wreckage and debris are everywhere to be seen.

From these ruins and remnants, one can vaguely see that a terrifying cosmic battle, which swept across multiple universes, had occurred here, ages ago.

These remnants were left behind after the universe was destroyed!

The Cosmic Ruins are dangerous not only because of the various threats from the Vast Nihility, but also due to the remnants left after the universe’s destruction.

Each of these things that can exist in the Vast Nihility is extremely terrifying!

For instance... Cosmic Rays!

These cosmic rays are not cosmic rays in the ordinary sense, but Chaos Rays formed by the universe’s final power after its destruction.

Such Chaos Rays cannot be ’negated’ by the established Law of the Vast Nihility.

And on Tai Chu’s path forward, a powerful Palm Source Realm powerhouse was grazed by a Chaos Ray, and his entire body began to fade.

"Five Desolates Dao Saint!"

In the team, someone looked at the Dao Saint struck by the Chaos Ray in horror and exclaimed.

In their eyes, they saw the Five Desolates Dao Saint’s body continuously fading, and in their perception, the Dao Saint’s presence became increasingly faint, to the point where some with lower Cultivation began to have blurred memories of him.

This is not just a killing ray; it seeks to completely erase the existence of this powerhouse from the root, in both the lines of karma and time.

"Don’t come over!" Despite being struck, the Five Desolates Dao Saint, a tough warrior, stopped everyone, preventing anyone from getting close to him.

Because he also felt his presence continually weakening, as if he were about to completely vanish, this feeling spread from his body to the deepest part of his Sea of Consciousness Divine Soul.

He didn’t know if this ray might infect others, so he kept them away.

"Alas!"

Tai Chu sighed, initially planning to venture alone into the Cosmic Ruins, as in being an Origin Realm Powerhouse with his own Minor Universe, self-preservation was assured.

But these people insisted on completing Prime Ancestor’s last wish together, so they followed along, and he brought them with him.

However, he didn’t anticipate the Cosmic Ruins to be this dangerous, to the point where even a Palm Source Realm Dao Saint might fall unexpectedly.

"Tai Chu’s Mark."

Waving his hand, Tai Chu’s True Form Universe suddenly unfolded, his hand seeming to sink into a certain space.

A few breaths ago, at the moment when the Chaos Ray was about to graze the Five Desolates Dao Saint, a hand suddenly appeared beside the Dao Saint, pulling him away.

The Chaos Ray flashed past the Five Desolates Dao Saint.

"Phew——"

Retracting his hand, Tai Chu’s complexion showed slight changes.

Even for him, rashly using such a high-grade power consumes greatly.

This is... the power of the Seventh Dimension!

Time-Causality Force!

Perhaps the Mechanical Civilization’s theories have some discrepancies, but they approximate this level of reality.

The Seventh Dimension is not only the Power of Time but also the Power of Karma.

This karma does not refer to the small karma of one universe but the power of karma that extends to all known life in the entire Vast Nihility!

Previously, Tai Chu reversed this karma, forcibly manipulated the Time Law, and let the premise of the Chaos Ray grazing the Five Desolates Dao Saint ’not exist’, so the Dao Saint would not die.

Turning back, Tai Chu saw the Dao Saint completely restored, though bemusedly looking at his own body, seemingly aware of what just transpired, so the Dao Saint looked at Tai Chu and bowed deeply.

"Thank you, Lord Tai Chu, for saving my life!"

At this point, others seemed to recall something. Though bewildered, they vaguely remembered, it seemed, Tai Chu’s intervention saved the Five Desolates Dao Saint.

"As expected of Tai Chu Prime Ancestor, the Origin Realm Powerhouse is indeed invincible."

"Lord Tai Chu is truly formidable!"

Hearing such praise, Tai Chu inwardly smiled bitterly, but his face showed little emotion as he shook his head saying, "Let’s move forward, but be cautious. The Cosmic Ruins are even more dangerous than we imagined; I don’t want to see anyone else get hurt."

Along their way, they indeed lost quite a few companions, some Tai Chu was unable to rescue, and others he couldn’t save.

After all, he was the sole Origin Realm Powerhouse, and if all his strength was spent rescuing, what would they do if faced with a severe crisis?

One must know that both in the Vast Nihility and among the debris in the Cosmic Ruins are crises capable of threatening the Origin Realm Powerhouse.

In such a place, even he cannot afford to be careless.

Yet, despite this, he still feels somewhat puzzled.

Why does a universe manage to exist in such a terrifying place?

Didn’t Prime Ancestor mention that during the ancient wars, hundreds and thousands of universes in the Sea of Realms were completely destroyed?

So how exactly does this universe survive?

What does its existence signify?

Tai Chu doesn’t know.

But he knows now the thing he must do is find the one Prime Ancestor spoke of—the person dubbed as the ’turning point’—then thoroughly discuss with them, and if possible, bring them to the Tree Realm Universe to face whatever might happen in the future.

Regarding Prime Ancestor’s words, Tai Chu holds deep faith.

After all, the current Sea of Realms was crafted by Prime Ancestor and legendary powerhouses joining forces to reach its present state!

Although Prime Ancestor often said during life, they were merely a group of homeless and destitute beings exiled from their homes, their final resting places denied.

Yet Tai Chu knows these mythical existences are truly great.

Without them, the current flourishing Sea of Realms wouldn’t exist.

Regrettably, those powerhouses have disappeared or fallen long ago.

Prime Ancestor mentioned, surviving that horrifying war, nearly all were seriously injured, most close to death, with Prime Ancestor’s condition being one of the better.

Among those who escaped, the weakest... was still an Origin Realm.

Tai Chu shook his head. With his Origin Realm Cultivation, even he couldn’t fathom how terrifying that war must have been.

Taking out a few garments, Tai Chu allowed them to float from his universe, then touch the Vast Nihility, transforming elegantly into the Nihility.

"Farewell on your journey." Tai Chu uttered softly, while a certain powerhouse behind him remained silent.

Now the Sea of Realms, Six Great Universes, is their homeland.

Prime Ancestor and his kind were indeed founders of the Six Great Universes.

Yet Prime Ancestor’s homeland is not theirs.

My homeland, not others’.

"Prime Ancestor, you are home now."
