this infinite world

...Damn it, Fuxi is still chasing me.

Upon hearing Chu Xuan utter the name, even though Yang Yun had heard it countless times, he was still utterly speechless.

The reason is simple: as a being with a "deep connection" to Fuxi, this name seems to have permeated most of the time after Yang Yun entered the Main God Space... and even now, in a different multiverse, Fuxi still seems to be an insurmountable obstacle for him.

However, Yang Yun understood that this Fuxi was not the same Fuxi as the other Fuxi. At least in this "relatively young" multiverse, the "Fuxi" mentioned by the clone Chu Xuan was very different from the "Human Emperor Fuxi" that he knew and had even seen with his own eyes... At the very least, he shouldn't be so "corrupted".

"Alright, I won't ask you how you figured it out to this extent..."

Yang Yun was too lazy to ask what the clone Chu Xuan had gone through. Anyway, the Primordial Heavenly Court was an ancient behemoth with footprints all over the multiverse. It was not difficult to learn about the existence of this organization if one had a little thought: "However, the true name of a strong person has its own power. Anyone who recites the true name will feel something."

"This is especially true for beings like Fuxi who are at the pinnacle of the multiverse... I don't care, but even with the Investiture of the Gods as a cover, you should still be a little more careful."

The clone Chu Xuan nodded, not particularly surprised, clearly already aware of this. He then took the initiative to introduce the secrets he had discovered in various planes that were unknown to the reincarnators of the God Space: "In the multiverse, the name 'God Space' first appeared 18,000 years ago."

"In historical records, that era was also when the Reincarnation Team first appeared."

Eighteen thousand years ago...

At this point in time, Yang Yun naturally knew that, in fact, there was another person in his current Arctic team who had experienced the events of the past. That person was originally named Varosti, but now, due to an arrow wound to the knee, he was just a weak, pitiful, and helpless herb slime named Varosti.

Since Yang Yun's trip to the Celestial Team's God Space was only to allow Chu Hao and Ling Xin to meet, and the encounter with the clone Chu Xuan was just an accident, he didn't bring the herbal slime that mostly just "gurgled" along, thus making it impossible to verify the truth or details of what the clone Chu Xuan said... However, it's not a big problem; he can confirm it again when they return to the Arctic Continent Team's God Space.

"According to various records, 18,000 years ago, the first generation of reincarnation team encountered the Primordial Heavenly Court, and the two sides quickly clashed."

The clone Chu Xuan naturally had no idea of ​​Varo's existence. He simply recounted the intelligence he had gathered without any of his own speculation: "The specific reasons for the conflict are now unknown, but the friction between the two sides escalated rapidly. The first generation of the Reincarnation Team took the initiative to enter the Primordial Continent... and that battle was undoubtedly won by the Primordial Heavenly Court. From then on, the Main God Space and the Reincarnation Team disappeared without a trace, never to be seen again in the mortal world."

"But weren't you just talking about the Human Emperor Fuxi?" Yang Yun asked knowingly... well, not exactly knowingly, because he was genuinely curious about how Fuxi would react to this in another multiverse where he didn't exist.

Yang Yun understood that his experience of returning to 18,000 years ago through the time corridor to help Arthas and Xena escape was not entirely reliable; and that the specific course of historical events might differ after each restart of the multiverse.

After all, the "Human Emperor Fuxi" in his own multiverse, who had gone through more than eighty multiverse cycles and turned into embers, almost completely losing his human emotions, and even actively bringing the first generation of reincarnation teams into the prehistoric continent, was still too human... while the Fuxi in this multiverse, who did not go to plug the hole and still retained normal values ​​and emotions, was perhaps closer to the "Pei Xi" after the beginning of death.

Varosti's attitude towards Pei Xi, and the goodwill he had built up since "The Beginning of Death," were enough to make Yang Yun, even though he was an opponent with whom he was bound to fight, still have considerable expectations for Fu Xi in this multiverse.

"It was because of the subsequent actions of the Human Emperor that the entire multiverse came to know that the backer of that Reincarnation Team was none other than the Human Emperor Fuxi himself."

But to Yang Yun's surprise, the clone Chu Xuan gave a completely different answer: "Afterwards, the Human Emperor was furious and sealed the Primordial Continent with the Four Symbols, Five Elements, and Eight Trigrams for exactly 18,000 years. From then on, the Central Primordial Continent was isolated from the world and never appeared again..."

"...That's it?"

After waiting for a while, seeing that the clone Chu Xuan remained silent, Yang Yun couldn't help but ask, "Is that all? Is there any follow-up?"

"No, that's all. If eighteen thousand years hadn't passed, I wouldn't have known this information. In fact, the blockade of the Primordial Continent was lifted decades ago, and the Heavenly Court began to re-enter the outer planes..."

Before the clone Chu Xuan could finish speaking, he suddenly shut his mouth. Even Chu Hao and Ling Xin on the other side sensed something was wrong and looked up at the main god in mid-air... It was as if the "main god" light sphere, which had been a stable light source for countless years in the main god space belonging to the Celestial God Team, suddenly dimmed for a moment, like a light bulb with a faulty connection.

Of course, the "main god" wouldn't experience poor contact or malfunction due to circuit issues. The reason for all this was, of course, Yang Yun, whose expression remained unchanged at first glance, but whose heart was burning with anger.

To outsiders, Fuxi's attitude was quite clear. After all, it was common knowledge that all beings below the level of a sage were insignificant. In the eyes of a supreme emperor-level sage, even if the members of the Reincarnation Squad were important, they were at most just pawns in a multiverse game…

They're just pawns, why get so worked up? It's nothing more than the Human Emperor losing a move to the Primordial Heavenly Court's united government, and in his anger, he sealed off the Primordial World for 18,000 years. In the eyes of the entire multiverse, that's probably already a major event...

However, in Yang Yun's view, this Fuxi of the multiverse can only be described as "incompetent"!

Yes, it's "incompetent"!
Although Yang Yun understood that for Fuxi, the "Human Emperor," all humans were his subjects, their will was his will, and their continuation was his continuation. After all, they were all his flesh and blood, and even if the prehistoric humans did many things against his will, there was still very little he could do.

But isn't that too cowardly? Your brothers, your partners, your comrades were persecuted by the Primordial Heavenly Court… Okay, even if you, as the Human Emperor, had to consider the bigger picture and thus only sealed off the Primordial Heavenly Court for 18,000 years, halting their rampant expansion into other planes; even if you certainly have a backup plan, and resurrecting them in the future is just a matter of turning your hand, at most it's just "retribution is inevitable, the time just hasn't come yet," and you should just swallow your anger for now…

But, among those persecuted by the Primordial Heavenly Court are your wife and daughter! Fuxi, as a man, how can you tolerate such a thing? How can you be so indifferent to it?
Or is it that the personality of "Human Emperor Fuxi" is actually just an illusion, and that this is your true nature? And that personality of "Pei Jiao," who was flesh and blood, with love and hate, and who finally merged with you in "The Beginning of Death," did it cease to exist after that, leaving only a name belonging to "Pei Xi," which has more commemorative significance than practical significance?
"...This is all I know about the causal relationship between the Human Emperor and the Reincarnation Squad 18,000 years ago."

Although he was not using his own "original body" and his strength was far from his peak, as the saying goes, "a wise man does not stand under a dangerous wall." As a wise man, one of the most important things is the ability to perceive and avoid danger.

Sensing the uneasy atmosphere, the clone Chu Xuan decisively steered the conversation to the next stage: "After that, through various sources of information and with the assistance of the Investiture of the Gods, I finally confirmed that the Human Emperor did indeed possess the 'key' to control the main god."

"But correspondingly, he cannot use this 'key' as he pleases... In fact, according to my speculation, all of this is closely related to someone."

"Who? Chu Hao?"

When the clone Chu Xuan mentioned "a certain person," Yang Yun almost subconsciously thought of Chu Hao on the other side... After all, no matter how you look at it, this young man, who is still shrouded in mystery, has countless connections with the Human Emperor Fuxi.

Ilúvatar's attitude stemmed from inexplicable memories of her past life, from the fragments of the innate spiritual treasure Haotian Mirror that were transformed from illusion into reality through the "Dream World Technique," to her bizarre situation of having the status of a "protagonist" yet lacking any protagonist's luck. It was as if the words "something is wrong" were written all over her face. Not to mention, the Lord of the Rings mission world that the Arctic team experienced was very likely arranged for her by the Human Emperor Fuxi.

No, I'm talking about someone else.

Surprisingly, the clone Chu Xuan shook his head, denying Yang Yun's statement. Then the young man held up a finger and said a name that both of them were more familiar with: "Zheng Zha."

"...Zheng Zha?"

It must be said that the clone Chu Xuan was still able to keenly grasp the key points of the problem. At least the name he mentioned now effectively pulled Yang Yun away from his anger towards Fuxi. And he really didn't expect that the clone Chu Xuan would bring up that man at this time: "What happened to him?"

Well, although this Zheng Zha is not the same as that Zheng Zha, compared to Fuxi, who is an enemy rather than a friend, this name is obviously more important in Yang Yun's mind... But the problem is, if Zheng Zha is also in Fuxi's plan, wouldn't that mean that the other party had already started his own scheme back in the "Infinite Terror" era?
This doesn't quite match the plot that Yang Yun knew...

"The specific situation is still unclear, but the only thing that is certain is that Zheng Zha plays an exceptionally important role in the Human Emperor's scheme."

However, this time, the clone Chu Xuan surprisingly didn't make any definitive statements. Yang Yun even detected a hint of uncertainty in his tone... This was quite rare, coming from the most powerful strategist who dared to exaggerate his confidence when he was only 30% certain, and whose main method was gambling.

"...I'll just believe it for now."

However, despite his words, based on his trust in the intelligence of the clone Chu Xuan, and the somewhat ambiguous "relationship" between Zheng Zha and Fuxi, Yang Yun ultimately chose to trust one side: "The specific methods? And the plan?"

“My current plan is to find Zheng Zha through Chu Hao and then make contact with him,” the clone Chu Xuan replied.

"After finding Zheng Zha, what are your plans?" Yang Yun continued to press.

"Flip the table." The clone Chu Xuan pushed up his glasses and uttered the three words without hesitation, as if his previous uncertain tone was just an illusion... Sure enough, Chu Xuan was still the same Chu Xuan. Even if the arguments he gave were not entirely sufficient, when it came to making a decision, this young man would never hesitate for a moment.

Even though the clone Chu Xuan is now using the female body of "Heaven's Will," this familiar action still made Yang Yun see that familiar figure for a moment: "Since we don't know the other party's plan at the moment, then flipping the table is the fastest and most practical solution."

"In this way, we can not only disrupt the enemy's plans to the greatest extent, but also buy as much time as possible to completely disrupt their arrangements."

As he spoke, the clone Chu Xuan looked at Chu Hao on the other side, a glint of light seeming to flash behind his glasses: "Of course, I understand that even with the power of the Investiture of the Gods, it's impossible to compare with the Human Emperor who holds the 'Main God' in the Dao of Cause and Effect, not to mention that even the Investiture of the Gods in my possession might have been deliberately given to me by the other party..."

"But, the principle remains the same: if the other party wants something, we shouldn't let them have it; since Zheng Zha plays a very important role in their plan, then I should thwart their ideas, for example, by sending Zheng Zha into the spacetime turbulence, at the very least, keeping the most important 'protagonist' away from this treacherous 'stage'..."

"There's no need for that."

However, the next moment, Yang Yun's voice interrupted the clone Chu Xuan's words.

Under the gaze of the clone Chu Xuan, Yang Yun cracked his knuckles, slowly closed his eyes, and said, "If my previous battle with the Human Emperor was merely due to the karma I bore belonging to the 'Nine-Headed Clan'..."

"So now, we have to add another personal grudge to the mix."

After saying that, when Yang Yun opened his eyes again...

It was already a scene of utter desolation. (End of Chapter)
