Chapter 576: Strongest Power 1
"Wait a minute!" Ye Xiao stopped the old man from saying anything, took a deep breath to calm his heart, and finally asked in a deep voice, "Are you telling me that you are talking with me from the Primordial Era?"
"Yes!" The old man answered with his usually smiling face.
"How is this possible? I don"t believe you!" Ye Xiao could not believe it. Not to mention, even if Divine Beings were here, even they would not have believed the old man.
How could one believe a person, whom one never even met, saying that in the current times, he is already dead for eons, and right now, he was talking from the past, eons ago, when it was still the Primordial Era?
Most importantly, it was as if Ye Xiao was standing right in front of the old man and was talking casually with him. How could he feel like this when this old man is from the Primordial Era and is dead for who knows how many eons?
The old man smiled and said, "I"m not telling you to believe me, I only said the truth. Believing it or not is totally up to you!"
"This... How can this be even possible?" Ye Xiao really could not believe it, but the truth was in front of him. At the same time, his instinctual feeling was also there which was telling him that although the old man looked to be present in front of him, he was actually not there but a place far far away from where Ye Xiao currently was, at the place where Ye Xiao could never even think of reaching.
The old man still had the same gentle smile. He said, "s.p.a.ce and Time, they are an extremely complicated law. And if you can comprehend its Profound Meaning, you can also do the same that I did. But..."
The old man stopped at this point, looked at Ye Xiao deeply, and again said, "But, it is an extremely difficult feat to achieve. Even I, who became an Ancient G.o.d, was only able to comprehend 25% of the Profound Meaning of s.p.a.ce and Time. I, who was born with the affinity of s.p.a.ce and Time, and could even manipulate s.p.a.ce at the age of eight, was only able to comprehend 25% of Profound Meaning. Think about it, how much you can comprehend even if you were given tens of millions of years of time?"
Ye Xiao took a deep breath when he heard this. He could understand how difficult it could be to comprehend even the Laws of s.p.a.ce and Time, let alone comprehend the Profound Meaning.
It has to know that, let alone comprehend the Law of s.p.a.ce and Time, Ye Xiao could not even sense it. He could only do it after forming the ancestral dragon that had control over s.p.a.ce and Time.
Ye Xiao knew the Laws of s.p.a.ce and Time was not something that he could come in contact with his current strength. There was still a long way to go. But before that...
Ye Xiao looked at the old man and asked, "Why did you decide to contact me. Has the trial already begun? Where am I right now? And... Who are you?"
The old man smiled and replied, "I could sense the aura of five ancestral dragons from your body the moment you stepped into my domain."
"Ehm! You might not know, the white s.p.a.ce that you were in a moment ago was actually my Divine Domain when I was still alive. Before dying, I used my Divine Domain as the base to take the trial of the future generation of other races. The moment you stepped into my Divine Domain, I sensed you and decided to talk to you for a while!"
"As for your next question, the answer is no. The trial has yet to begin. The trial will begin only after my disappearance."
"As for me, I"m Yuan Shi De of Primordial Race. I was also one of the five people alive after the end of the Great War between two Universes!"
"Yuan Shi De, one of the five people alive after the end of Great War? Two Universes?"
When Ye Xiao heard this, he immediately thought what his instinct told him was right. The destruction of the Primordial Race was really related to the Universe of Heavenly Pearl in some ways.
Moreover, he had heard key words from Yuan Shi De: "Great War between Two Universes!"
Ye Xiao had witnessed the birth of two universes. He knew which two universes Yuan Shi De was talking about.
Suddenly, as if Ye Xiao guessed something, he asked, "Wait a minute, you just said that you were one of the five people alive after the Great War. And you were also the one who used your domain as the base for the First Trail. Does it mean that there are a total of five trials and every trial"s base is one of the five Primordial Race"s people"s Divine Domain?"
The old man nodded and replied, "You guessed right. But now is not the time to talk about these things. You are from a time far away in the future and my control over s.p.a.ce and Time is not that profound to continue maintaining it for too long. There is not much time left."
"Listen kid, since you are chosen by the Second Universe, show me what you are capable of. Show me that my Primordial Race"s sacrifices were not for nothing. Show me that my Primordial Race"s destruction was worth it! Show me your true strength!"
Ye Xiao took a deep breath. He asked, "Are you telling me to fight you?"
"No, I"m telling you to attack me with all you got!" The old man replied.
Ye Xiao nodded his head. Although there were some points that he could not understand such as the Sacrifices and Destruction of Primordial Race, but he also knew asking would not bring him closer to the answer he was looking for, instead, it"ll bring him many more unanswered questions. So, letting the time reveal the secret was the best thing to do.
"Transform!"
Taking a deep breath, Ye Xiao instantly transformed into the World Exterminating Demon Dragon.
The old man told Ye Xiao to show him his true strength. It also meant that the old man from the Primordial Race was expecting something from him.
Ye Xiao knew he must show Yuan Shi De the strength that is impossible for anyone even from the Primordial Era to show with the cultivation at the Late Stage of Immortal Emperor Realm.
So, Ye Xiao chose to transform into the World Exterminating Demon Dragon. Although Ye Xiao did not know much about what happened in the Great War of Primordial Era that caused the Primordial Race to disappear from the surface of Heavens, he still wanted to let the old man know that it was worth Primordial Race to side with the Universe of Heavenly Pearl.
As for how Ye Xiao knew that the Primordial Race has sided with the Universe of Heavenly Pearl, Ye Xiao actually guessed it. After all, the old man asked him to show his strength and wanted to try if "it" was worth the destruction of Primordial Race or not.
Here, Ye guessed that "it" was meant for the Universe of Heavenly Pearl.
And since Ye Xiao was the inheritor of this Universe, he naturally wanted to let the old man experience his strongest power.
There was also a reason why Ye Xiao did not choose to transform into any of the other three Ancestral Dragons, and why did he choose the World Exterminating Demon Dragon.
Actually, the World Exterminating Demon Dragon represents the power of destruction. Ye Xiao also had another energy that contains the strongest destructive force. This energy was the energy that Ye Xiao devoured from the Eye of Heavenly Dao.
What Ye Xiao wanted to do was to use this destructive energy to execute the strongest attack in the form of the World Exterminating Demon Dragon that represents the power of Destruction itself!
Ye Xiao wanted to know what kind of power combining the Destructive Energy from the Eye of Heavenly Dao and the destructive energy of World Exterminating Demon Dragon would bring forth!
However, there was one thing Ye Xiao was sure about. The combination of these two destructive energies must bring the true meaning of "destruction" in front of Ye Xiao and would also let the old man witness that the decision made by Primordial Race was not wrong.
There was also one thing that Ye Xiao wanted to ask the old man, but he decided to ask it later.
First, he"ll let the old man experience his true strength.
Well, right now, even Ye Xiao himself doesn"t know what his true strength is.. All he knew was that he has become extremely powerful and even the Dao Body Stage cultivator would not able to do anything to him.
