Behind the Endless Abyss Land, there is no world.

Zhou Yan saw the end of that world, a place of annihilation, a land of desolation.

The end of the Heavenly Road is such a sorrowful place.

The end of Eternal Life Beings might also be such a sorrowful place.

Zhou Yan remembered some of Zhou Wangchen’s words, silently bearing the changes of the singularity and the birth and death of the small invisible world around him, constantly traversing this land of heaven and earth’s sharpness.

The end of annihilation is rebirth.

This is an ultimate rule between heaven and earth, where extremes reverse and then cycle back and forth.

Within this cycle, Zhou Yan experienced an unforeseen transformation.

His Perfect Realm fell silent, and his last layer of the realm was activated, manifesting a unique and complete state.

The realm wasn’t complete, but it seemed to be extracted from within him, forming a whole independently deep in the endless singularity.

At that moment, Zhou Yan almost instinctively thought of his missing life soul—could it be that this life soul is the same as the current situation?

Is it the same in that it abandoned endless perfection and extracted an imperfect existence?

Or it is that after the extraction of endless perfection, it exists independently, leaving behind an incomplete fragment?

As Zhou Yan pondered, he was enveloped by the endless singularity, his soul body and part of the Origin of the Eternal Half-Saint Spirit were directly separated into two parts.

One part, the Eight Eternal Rules Nine Great Perfections, along with the corresponding Origin King’s Mark of Perfection.

The other part had only a single realm, which is the Ninth Rule of Eternal Nine Rules—the realm of True Void Immortal King Rule.

This realm was at the early stage of the Ninth Rule’s Ninth Layer.

The singularity kept changing, and the endless small worlds kept being born and destroyed.

In this situation, Zhou Yan seemed to have automatically completed a true Soul Slash process, forming these two parts without any danger.

One part stabilized in a small world, quietly dormant, like entering a fetal breathing state, with no perception of any changes.

The other part continued traveling forward, continuing to pass through the end of that unknown ancient land of annihilation.

Zhou Yan didn’t know the future, nor did he think about it. After being separated, what he thought about most was whether this isolated realm could be perfected at Buzhou Mountain.

And whether Zhou Wangchen’s requirements could be met.

In such a state, Zhou Yan continued his journey.

But, when this transformation reached its peak, Zhou Yan found himself undergoing unimaginable changes.

This change seemed to form a state of a blood fetus, as if time were flowing backward.

Blood Cocoon.

Blood Fetus.

During this moment, Zhou Yan felt there should be some unknown connection.

As he pondered, a terrifying light wheel appeared ahead.

The light wheel was multicolored.

The multicolored light wheel, like a world-destroying vortex, continually devoured everything that drifted here.

Zhou Yan could not control his drift because he already knew that he was bound to the path to Buzhou Mountain.

Therefore, Zhou Yan plunged into it, instantly devoured by the massive vortex.

...

Long after, the hazy world seemed to gain luster.

And Zhou Yan also awoke along with it.

However, his mind was a mixture of confusion and vagueness.

All his strength was lost.

At this time, he vaguely heard voices conversing, the words being purely Tai Chu Runes.

"Three-Life Soul Nourishment, Immortal Evil Soul, should be almost ready."

"Then let Jiang Tianxin extract this cultivated soul. Just right, we can play along with Lee Ran’s proposal." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"Thus, this genius of Three-Life Soul Nourishment would be wasted, right?"

"This person, kill it if needed, or pretend to kill him and discard him to the Lee family of the Soul Path family—then destroy the talent roots, make him a fool like the Lee family ancestor."

"I heard that when the Lee family rose, the Lee Family Ancestor was an idiot, only because his soul talent was too powerful for the body to bear."

"Now another fool is emerging in the Lee family, wonder if they will still cultivate properly? Heh heh."

"Let’s see what fate has in store."

...

The inexplicable conversation made Zhou Yan’s heart beat inexplicably a few times.

However, at this time, all his potential was exhausted, as if all his origins were hollowed out, all his abilities drained, and all his talents sucked dry.

This was an indescribable state of weakness, a strange sense of powerlessness that Zhou Yan had never experienced before.

But, the only fortunate thing, perhaps, was that Zhou Yan remembered the truth and reason for his arrival.

"Lee Sha? Extraction of talents?"

"The Jiang family? Lee Ran’s plan?"

"Could it be, I have returned to the past, reliving the life of Lee Sha?"

"No, this isn’t the past, this is..."

"The singularity’s projection of the past, making me experience a past or future that cannot be changed again?"

"Or, is it to let me uncover the true elements of True Void within this, thereby achieving transformation?"

"Or perhaps time is reversed, black and white are confused, and in reality, Jiang Tianling and Jiang Tianxin, who refined my origin, become my prey and accessories, allowing me to achieve an ultimate breakthrough and transformation on this foundation?"

Zhou Yan’s analysis has already touched upon some truths from various aspects.

However, without real understanding, some matters can only be grasped through subtle hints.

Throughout this, Zhou Yan endured an inexplicable intense discomfort, analyzing some matters.

Soon, the voice from the exchange faded away, and another voice emerged.

"Grandfather, since Lee Ran has agreed with us, isn’t what you’re doing going too far? How can you do this?!"

A beautiful and pleasant female voice carried a clear tone of reproach.

"Yu Ning, the difficulty of growth, you know it too. Moreover, this breakthrough has a deeper meaning. You should know who I, Jiang Xing, am, Ning’er. As for this child, I have promised not to harm his life, but he must be cast into the prison land of our Buzhou Mountain’s divine plane, the Soul Burying Starfield."

"Within there, there’s a Heavenly Soul Mountain of the Lee family that can serve as his place of growth. Only then can his residual soul state ensure a sliver of life."

"This way, we are being as generous as possible toward Lee Ran!"

The old voice responded.

"But... but he is second uncle’s son! Second uncle Jiang Shang has done great deeds for our Jiang family, and his mother Lee Sunyu has an extraordinary background. How can we do this!"

The woman spoke mournfully.

"I absolutely disagree! He is still so young, so pitiable, having the extreme soul of the Immortal Evil Soul extracted, how will he survive in the future!"

"Jiang Yuning, you’re becoming more and more presumptuous! What? You won’t even listen to your grandfather? Let me tell you, this is Jiang He’s opinion. If you have objections, take it up with the Ancestor!"

The old voice snorted coldly, filled with obvious displeasure and warning.

With that, the woman’s voice finally ceased to appear.

But soon, the old figure had already arrived in front of Zhou Yan.

With a casual wave of his hand, a vast force of soul power swept across, causing Zhou Yan to fly upward, suspended in midair.

Zhou Yan noticed that at this moment, he was in the form of an infant covered in blood, exceedingly tragic.

And that old figure, with eyes as poisonous as a viper, was extremely sinister and heartless.

Zhou Yan had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, a sensation he couldn’t quite describe.

If this isn’t Buzhou Mountain, then what were those experiences on the Sword Burial Ancestor Star?

Why, in the second life, did it happen after the third life?

Zhou Yan had many doubts in his heart.

He suspected this was the True Void World, an illusion formed by the memory of the second life, manifesting as the True Void Heavenly Prohibition.

But Zhou Yan couldn’t determine if there was any structural inconsistency, or where the core of the True Void Heavenly Prohibition lay.

Zhou Yan, for the True Void Heavenly Prohibition now in the state of Nine Rules and Nine Layers, found it nearly impossible to determine if it existed, how could he not recognize the existence of the True Void Heavenly Prohibition?

Yet at this moment, Zhou Yan couldn’t figure it out.

So, according to Zhou Wangchen’s explanation, Zhou Yan could only approach it this way.

He awaited the development and changes of the situation.

And the development and changes were similar to the life of Lee Sha.

After much consideration, Jiang Xing didn’t directly annihilate Zhou Yan, but instead took him away to the abyssal part of the Big Rift of Buzhou Mountain.

At that moment, Jiang Yuning followed along.

The current Jiang Yuning was very young and immature, like a graceful and elegant sixteen-year-old, not yet a king able to control the Elf Domain.

After handling a series of things, Jiang Xing locked onto the place of the Lee family in the Heavenly Soul Mountain, directly casting Zhou Yan through this Big Rift into it.

Jiang Yuning also followed, ignoring Jiang Xing’s objections, descending into the depths of the Heavenly Soul Mountain.

Thus, when Zhou Yan awoke again, he became an imbecile, an idiot with an inherent self-will but unable to dictate his life, like an observer.

Moreover, anyone who named Zhou Yan was often met with a backlash from the King’s Mark, leading to severe misfortune, almost all suffering from calamities.

Therefore, Zhou Yan no longer had a name, only the moniker ’Lee Sha.’

Zhou Yan’s Eternal Half-Saint Spirit, carrying the Nine Rules and Nine Layers of the Eternal Realm, seemed bound within the depths of Lee Sha’s brow, unable to escape, yet able to observe the fool Lee Sha growing and continuously interacting with Jiang Yuning and other women.

Perhaps due to his bloodline, Lee Sha had no feelings for Jiang Yuning, yet was incredibly infatuated with Lee Lianqing from the Lee family.

This infatuation bordered on insanity, even becoming perverse.

As a result, in Zhou Yan’s eyes, the imbecile Lee Sha even willingly served Lee Lianqing, being driven like an ox or horse, without complaint, but rather joyful at being commanded.

The fool, indeed, seemed to find joy in his foolishness.

Zhou Yan viewed all of this very detachedly.

But he still quietly watched Lee Sha grow bit by bit.

Until one day, in front of Lee Sha, Lee Lianqing made him kneel and kowtow while gazing with immense admiration and affection at Xiao Tianlun, a top genius in the Heavenly Soul Mountain.

That was a scene devoid of dignity, yet deeply stimulating due to Lee Lianqing’s look of admiration and love for Xiao Tianlun.

Under such stimulation, Lee Sha’s brow split open, and Zhou Yan’s soul power began to seep out bit by bit.

Thus, Lee Sha became silent.

Afterward, under Zhou Yan’s will, Lee Sha headed toward Thunder Flame Breaking Path Mountain.

It was the greatest Secret Realm of the Heavenly Soul Mountain, and also the place of opportunity that Zhou Wangchen instructed Zhou Yan to enter after going to Buzhou Mountain.

In that place, Lee Sha became the Lei Yan King.

Once, that was the truth.

And now, Lee Sha was actually replaced by Zhou Yan, so how did he achieve becoming the Lei Yan King?

Zhou Yan also had such thoughts in his heart, wanting to search and understand what the truth or illusion of this world was, and what the secrets within it were.
