Ye Chenfeng received a final gift from the Chaos Demon Emperor, gaining insights that brought him to the brink of the Peak of the Divine Emperor Realm. He then activated a Teleportation Array to leave the Chaos Demon Emperor's tomb. Meanwhile, those waiting outside, including the Lin, Kong, and Hes clans, watched as Lifebound Tokens shattered, indicating the deaths of many inside. The Hes clan was particularly dismayed by the loss of their elders, while the Lin and Kong clans found relief in their juniors' survival.

In a certain valley in the Upper World.

The figure of Ye Chenfeng suddenly appeared out of thin air. Through the teleportation array opened by the Chaos Demon Emperor, he successfully left the Chaos Demon Emperor’s tomb.

After leaving the Chaos Demon Emperor’s tomb, Ye Chenfeng brought Old Bai, Old Hei, Feng Deyuan, Lin Yurou, and others out of the small world inside the Chaos Ring. He casually said, “We’ve already left the tomb.”

Feeling the familiar world, Feng Deyuan and the others all experienced a sense of surviving a disaster. If it hadn’t been for Ye Chenfeng, they would’ve undoubtedly died, incapable of walking out of the Chaos Demon Emperor’s tomb.

This valley should not be far from the entrance of the Chaos Demon Emperor’s tomb. Old Bai immediately used the Messaging Jade Token to transmit information to Lin Wentian.

At the entrance of the Demon Emperor’s tomb, Lin Wentian’s Messaging Jade Token at his waist suddenly began to flicker. After sensing the content of the message, the expression on his face didn’t change much. He said to He Renbai, “He family boy, I won’t waste time here. I’ll go ahead first.”

Kong Nanzhi silently followed Lin Wentian in leaving, causing He Renbai, who was in anger, to twitch his face.

The rest of the Peak Divine Emperor Realm experts in the Upper World, after greeting He Renbai, also left one by one. This time, most sects suffered heavy losses, as they had late-stage Divine Emperor Realm experts die in the tomb.

Watching the experts of the Upper World leave one after another, soon only He Renbai was left alone. The expression in his eyes grew extremely dark, and words filled with a dense killing intent escaped through his gritted teeth: “Lin Wentian, Kong Nanzhi, you two old bastards, just wait for me. Soon, let’s see how arrogant you both can be. Once the patriarch crosses into the Eternal Life Realm, this entire world will belong to the Hes.”

Receiving Old Bai’s message, Lin Wentian and Kong Nanzhi hurried towards that valley together.

Indeed, the valley was not too far from the Chaos Demon Emperor’s tomb but not too close either. With Lin Wentian and Kong Nanzhi’s speed, they needed to fly through the air for about ten minutes.

At this moment, in the valley.

Feng Deyuan, Lu Chengying, Gao Huapeng, and Hu Tianwu thanked Ye Chenfeng profusely.

Ye Chenfeng nodded in response. Although he believed that the first owner of the Chaos Ring was definitely dead, when he thought carefully about every word the Chaos Demon Emperor said, along with the person able to create the Chaos Ring, would someone with such ability really be dead?

Originally certain that the first owner of the Chaos Ring was dead, Ye Chenfeng felt a vague and indescribable sensation. Assuming the first owner wasn’t dead, what level would their realm reach? Surely, it’s the Eternal Life Realm?

But this is just a hypothesis. Despite having some doubts in his heart, he was more inclined to believe the first owner of the Chaos Ring was gone.

After Feng Deyuan, Lu Chengying, Gao Huapeng, and Hu Tianwu finished expressing gratitude, they all opened their mouths to bid farewell. After interacting with Ye Chenfeng, they also understood his character better and started to truly believe in the He family’s shocking conspiracy Ye Chenfeng mentioned.

If He Kongsheng’s conspiracy succeeds, they will all become stepping stones for him to cross into eternal life. They must urgently return to the sect to report this.

After Feng Deyuan and the others left.

Old Hei, Jiang Yuntian, smiled at Ye Chenfeng and said, “Kid, keep a low profile with your aura. Those two guys will be here soon. I assume they think our disciples aren’t worth much. Just wait to see their remarkable expressions.”

Beside him, Lin Yurou and Lin Anhao were already mourning silently for their patriarch. As juniors, they naturally didn’t dare say much.

Earlier, Feng Deyuan and the others didn’t ask Ye Chenfeng why he could leave the tomb, but Old Bai and Old Hei had no such reservations.

“Little guy, could it be the Chaos Demon Emperor actually has a connection to the Chaos Ring?” Old Bai, Wu Fengxian, asked.

Ye Chenfeng directly revealed the relationship between the Chaos Demon Emperor and the first owner of the Chaos Ring.

Old Hei, Jiang Yuntian, remarked, “No wonder, now I understand why the Chaos Demon Emperor let us go. After all, you’re the legitimate heir to the Chaos Ring.”

Ye Chenfeng nodded and said, “But the Chaos Demon Emperor spoke so confidently. Do you think the first owner of the Chaos Ring might still be alive?”

Old Bai, Wu Fengxian, shook his head and said, “The first owner of the Chaos Ring was a formidable figure at the beginning of the Chaos Era. If they were still alive now, they would undoubtedly have crossed into the Eternal Life Realm. Do you think that’s possible?”

Old Hei, Jiang Yuntian, also stated, “Indeed, do you think there are any eternal beings in this world?”

Ye Chenfeng sighed.

But suddenly, Ye Chenfeng, Old Bai, and Old Hei’s eyes all widened, and the expressions on their faces turned unsure. They exchanged glances, seemingly realizing something.

Ye Chenfeng asked, “Is it possible?”

Old Bai, Wu Fengxian, nodded and said, “We shouldn’t rule out such a possibility.”

Old Hei was also amazed, “If that’s really the case, then it would be quite interesting.”

Beside them, Skyhawk, Lin Yurou, and Lin Anhao were utterly puzzled, unable to understand the conversation between Ye Chenfeng and the others. This dialogue seemed like a cryptic riddle.

There really is an Eternal Life Realm in this world, isn’t there? Ye Chenfeng has already witnessed this realm twice.

Once one reaches eternal life, they can control this world, becoming this world.

Previously, the Chaos Demon Emperor also mentioned that since their last parting, they haven’t seen the first owner of the Chaos Ring again, nor found any information, revealing much oddity.

If the first owner of the Chaos Ring is alive, only this could explain it. The first owner of the Chaos Ring is this world.

But is that really possible?

Of course, this is merely a guess, a bold guess at that. For this guess to hold true, the first owner of the Chaos Ring must still be alive.

Ye Chenfeng unconsciously glanced at the azure sky. If the first owner of the Chaos Ring is indeed this world, how will Ye Chenfeng face everything in the future?

After all, he is the heir to the Chaos Ring. In a sense, he is akin to a descendant of the first owner of the Chaos Ring.

But he then dismissed these distracting thoughts. Now is not the time to think about them, as it’s still just a conjecture.

Preventing He Kongsheng from crossing into the Eternal Life Realm is now the most important thing.
