Apocalypse: The Primordial Pearl Recognizes Its Master, Starting with Infinite Space

Divine Realm, Ancestral Star.

Eisen's message traveled up the encrypted channels of the Protoss business system, layer by layer, and finally reached the residence of the Poison Ancestor.

The Poison Ancestor's residence is located on a mountain peak deep within the Divine Realm, shrouded in poisonous fog year-round. Nothing grows around it, except for a pitch-black palace perched alone on the cliff face, never seeing the light of day.

He was in seclusion studying a new variant of the poison-based laws when he was interrupted by an urgent communication, and his expression was not good.

Poison Ancestor looked like an elegant middle-aged man in his early thirties, with regular features, fair skin, and long silver hair neatly tied behind his head. Only his golden eyes occasionally flashed with a hint of coldness.

His physique was more robust than most of the gods, yet he did not appear bulky; instead, he exuded a calm and restrained sense of oppression.

He wore a dark green robe draped over his body, the hem embroidered with intricate runes in gold thread. As he walked, a faint fragrance of grass and trees wafted from him, creating a strange contrast with the poisonous mist that surrounded him.

He unfolded the report in his hand, and his eyes narrowed sharply when they fell on the words "multiple laws", "heavenly demon race" and "strength far exceeding that of others of the same level".

"Multiple laws..." Poison Ancestor muttered to himself, recalling the time when Sky Ancestor had been furious.

"Is it the same person?" Poison Ancestor frowned and carefully read the report again.

Although Eisen's description points to the "Heavenly Demon Clan," the characteristics of multiple laws, the bizarre combat power, and the style of appearing and disappearing without a trace all seem to be the work of the Demon Clan.

Although there are geniuses among the demon race, no one has ever been known to be able to simultaneously master multiple laws such as time, space, lightning, and flesh.

Poison Ancestor stood up and paced back and forth in the cave a few times.

He didn't even glance at the figures for commercial losses in the report; a hundred billion crystal cores was nothing more than a drop in the ocean for the Protoss.

What he cares about is the information about the multiple laws. If this is indeed the person Kong Zu is looking for, his value far exceeds that of billions of crystal cores.

The multiple laws are of great importance. Without further hesitation, he put the report into his sleeve, left the cave, and transformed into a streak of emerald light, tearing through the void and disappearing into the horizon.

His departure was noticed by Kongzu, Guangzu and others. The ancestors were only slightly puzzled, but did not follow him.

Poison Ancestor traversed the sea of ​​stars alone, spending half a month before finally arriving at the outer edge of the Tianyuan Starfield.

The starlight was sparse in the void, and in the distance, one could vaguely see the dense nebulae and the light of life-bearing planets in the Tianyuan Starfield.

He slowed down, just as he was about to step into this star field, when a clear voice suddenly came from the void, unhurried and with a hint of a smile.

"Poison Ancestor, your presence is an honor. I apologize for not welcoming you properly."

A colossal, illusory figure hovered in the void, shrouded in deep purple demonic energy. Its face was obscured, except for a pair of crimson eyes that gleamed in the darkness. The overwhelming pressure emanating from it clearly indicated that it was also a tenth-tier being.

The Poison Ancestor stopped, his brow furrowing slightly, his tone tinged with displeasure: "Demon Ancestor, you're stopping me?"

The enormous, illusory figure slowly solidified, transforming into a tall, slender silhouette.

It was a face so beautiful it seemed unreal: eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like autumn water, and a pair of deep, cold, crimson eyes that seemed to see through all the illusions of the world.

Her long hair cascaded down to her waist, and her slender waist was accentuated by a dark black robe.

The Demon Ancestor still smiled charmingly: "Poison Ancestor, our two races made an agreement back then: tenth-tier Primordial Ancestor level experts are not allowed to set foot in the Heavenly Origin Starfield without an invitation. Have you forgotten?"

Poison Ancestor's lips twitched; of course he hadn't forgotten.

That was an agreement reached hundreds of millions of years ago between the gods, dragons, and demons: the progenitor of the gods would not enter the Heavenly Origin, and the dragon and demon ancestors would not be allowed to leave the Heavenly Origin Starfield.

Both sides compromised, maintaining a delicate balance.

After a long silence, the Poison Ancestor said in a deep voice, "I have come here on important business, not to cause trouble."

The Demon Ancestor showed no sign of backing down: "Rules are rules. If they can be broken with any excuse, then what's the point of having rules?"

"That's right, rules are rules! If we let you pass, what's the point of my and the Demon Ancestor's hundreds of millions of years of perseverance?"

A rough voice boomed, and another enormous dragon phantom appeared behind the Demon Ancestor. The Dragon Ancestor had arrived.

The standoff in the void lasted for a long time.

The Demon Ancestor and the Dragon Ancestor stood one in front and one behind, sandwiching the Poison Ancestor in the middle.

The Poison Ancestor's face darkened completely. He had come alone, without telling any of the other progenitors.

If they really went to fight, he wouldn't gain anything. Besides, his purpose in coming here was to uncover the secrets of the multiple laws, not to break ties with the dragons and demons.

"Fine." Poison Ancestor gritted his teeth, forcing the words out of his throat, "I won't go in. But recently, a thief appeared in the Tianyuan Starfield, robbing dozens of my Divine Race strongholds and stealing tens of billions of crystal cores. You can't be unaware of this, can you?"

The Demon Ancestor's smile remained unchanged, but a barely perceptible flicker of emotion flashed in his crimson eyes: "I've heard. But so what? Your subordinates are useless, unable to capture anyone, and you're going to blame us?"

"I don't care who that person is," the Poison Ancestor said coldly, "but since he's disguised as a member of the Heavenly Demon Clan, your Demon Clan is a suspect. I will send my men into the territories of both the Demon and Dragon Clans to search, and you are not allowed to stop me. Otherwise, I don't mind starting another war between the God, Demon, and Dragon Clans!"

The Demon Ancestor and the Dragon Ancestor exchanged a glance. The Dragon Ancestor's gruff voice rang out: "A search is permissible, but it must not disturb the people, damage the planet, or provoke conflict with our two races. You must have a number of people you send in; it cannot exceed three thousand."

"Three thousand?" Poison Ancestor frowned. "The Tianyuan Starfield is so vast, what can three thousand people do? At least thirty thousand!"

"Absolutely impossible, at most five thousand!" the Demon Ancestor said with dissatisfaction.

"Twenty thousand."

"Five thousand."

"Ten thousand."

"Deal!" the Demon Ancestor replied slyly.

Poison Ancestor was immediately frustrated, realizing he had been tricked by Demon Ancestor, and could only nod: "Fine, ten thousand it is. But I have one condition—if my men find that thief, you must not interfere."

The Demon Ancestor thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay."

The Poison Ancestor said no more, turned around and transformed into a green streak of light, disappearing into the void outside the Tianyuan Starfield and flying towards the Divine Race garrison in the Qinglan Starfield.

The Demon Ancestor and the Dragon Ancestor watched him leave. Only after the streak of light completely disappeared did the Dragon Ancestor retract his illusory form, his voice tinged with solemnity: "The younger generation of my clan has been stirring up trouble lately, saying that the God Race would take action against the Tianyuan Star Region. I didn't expect it to be true?"

The Demon Ancestor frowned: "Some of my clan's juniors have been lobbying on this matter, which is why I paid special attention to the movements in the Divine Realm and stopped the Poison Ancestor at the first opportunity."

Upon hearing this, the Dragon Ancestor frowned: "Is that so? Do these juniors know something?"

The Demon Ancestor shook his head: "I don't know. I asked them, but they didn't give me any answers."

Then, their figures slowly faded and disappeared from the spot.
