When mentioning the Evil-eyed Lions, the Great Star Lord had a complicated expression on his face. Taking a deep breath, he said: "Evil-eyed Lions... They are monsters created by the five God Levelled Evil-eyed Lions. Only God Levelled Evil-eyed Lions are real, as for other lions, they are like the incarnations of the five God Levelled Evil-eyed Lions, as well as their vassals."
"The Evil-eyed Lions started appearing after the five God Levelled Evil-eyed Lions come back to life for some reason. None other than Gods and Ancient Gods know what the Evil-eyed Lions actually are and how did they appear. For some reason, no God or Ancient God come out of the unknown vast land. Maybe, they are protecting something and at the same time, stopping someone from doing something that can cause a disaster in our world. After coming back to life, Evil-eyed Lions also went to the unknown vast land. There must be something there that is attracting those five lions."
"I was fortunate enough to meet a God about five hundred years ago. He roughly told me something that made me more confused instead of making things clear. He said something like the world in which we live is not the real world. Instead, it is the Inner World of someone called Ancient Samsara God who made a contract with Ancient Devil."
"Sigh, I really don't understand these things. He told me many such things but because I can't understand, I forgot what he told me!"
Ye Xiao was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect this world to be the inner world of the Ancient Samsara God. However, when he thought about it, a few things that he didn't understand before started making sense. If this really is the inner world of Ancient Samsara God, then it is not that surprising why Ye Xiao felt like the Child of the World after he fell into this world.
After all, even though the Great Star Continent is Ancient Samsara God's Divine Domain and this world is Ancient Samsara God's inner world, they come from the same source. They follow the same rules. He had reincarnated into the Great Star Continent and then come to this world. As for other people inside this world, Ye Xiao doesn't know if they came from the outside world and started living here for eons. But what he is sure about is that none of these people are native to this world. After all, when he came to this world and tried to absorb the spirit energy, he could feel how excited the will of this world had become. This world provided him with a lot of help. If there were really natives inside this world, then this world wouldn't have treated him as a treasure.
But there are also some questions that appeared in his mind when he heard that this world is the Inner World of the Ancient Samsara God.
It has to be known that one's Inner Wolrd is one's source of power. If one is to abandon their Inner World and take it out from their bodies, they'll become crippled for their entire life. They won't be a match to even an ordinary Martial Saint Realm martial artist at that time.
What was the reason for Ancient Samsara God to not only abandoned his Divine Domain, but he also abandoned his Inner World?
The second question that appeared in Ye Xiao's mind was about the patriarch of the Sky Ghost Race.
According to the current Leader of the Sky Ghost Race inside the pocket dimension, the Patriarch of the Sky Ghost Race was heavily injured and fell into a deep slumber. To save the Patriarch, he brought him inside the Eighth Floor of the Tower, and using the Formation Plate given by the Red-haired Woman, he sealed the Patriarch inside.
'Wait a moment!'
Ye Xiao's eyes suddenly widened at this time, for he remembered another important thing.
When he entered the Ancient Ruin, he saw a few sentences written on the mountain wall.
"When golden light falls from the sky, the Underworld Fate will open. Enter the Underworld Gate and kill the five Evil-eyed Lions, you shall receive the inheritance of the strongest expert of Sky Ghost Race."
When Ye Xiao once again deeply thought about these words and decipher them, his eyes widened in shock.
After the Red Heaven Sword broke the Golden Pearl, a black hole-type vortex appeared and sucked him inside. As he was being sucked inside the black hole, he saw the shattered fragments of the Golden Pearl falling down along with him.
If the shattered fragments of the Golden Pearl were the golden light mentioned in the above sentences, then the black hole-type vortex must be the Underworld Gate.
Inside this world, there are also five Evil-eyed Lions. According to the sentences above, as long as he could kill those five Evil-eyed Lions, he could inherit the legacy of the strongest expert in the Sky Ghost Race.
Who was the strongest expert in the entire Sky Ghost Race?
It was the Patriarch, father of that Red-haired Lady, and the true ruler of the entire Sky Ghost Race.
That little girl he met inside the Ancient Ruin also told him that he needed to break the Five Direction Lion Seal to let her brother regain his freedom.
What is the Five Direction Lion Seal?
To create this seal, one needed five Evil-eyed Lions.
These are not all coincidences.
What if the little girl's brother is the Patriarch of the Sky Ghost Race.
If this really is true, then the identity of the little girl must be awesome as well. It is just that Ye Xiao doesn't know anything about her.
In the cultivation world, one can't judge a person's age by their appearance.
"There must be something wrong with the current Leader of the Sky Ghost Race!" After deeply thinking about many things and thoroughly reconsidering things, Ye Xiao finally concluded that the Leader of the Sky Ghost Race must be hiding something very strong. There must be something wrong with him. The thing about him sealing the Patriarch on the Eighth Floor using the Formation Plate given to him by the Red-haired Lady are all a lie.
Then again, the question was, why did the Leader of Sky Ghost Race lie?
Ye Xiao was jolted awake from his thoughts because of a cough from Great Star Lord.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Xiao took out the black crystal again and asked: "Great Star Lord, what is this thing?"
"This is the Crystal of Darkness. Crystal of Darkness is left behind by a fallen Evil-eyed Lion. This kind of Evil-eyed Lion is either an Exalted Ruler-level beast or they are someone who is about to evolve and become an Exalted Ruler Level Evil-eyed Lion. The Crystal of Darkness in your hand seems to be from an Evil-eyed Lion that was about to evolve and become an Exalted Ruler-level beast. If this crystal is to fall in the hands of any Evil-eyed Lion, that Evil-eyed Lion can become a Ruler-level Evil-eyed instantly. It is a very dangerous item. We must destroy the Crystal of Darkness as soon as possible after seeing it."
"Ye Xiao, it's better to destroy the Crystal of Darkness in your hand." The Great Star Lord explained everything with a solemn expression on his face. At the same time, he tried to make Ye Xiao destroy the Crystal of Darkness.
Ye Xiao seemed to be deep in thought. After some time, he said: "This Crystal of Darkness seems to contain a huge amount of energy and some kind of Law as well."
The Great Star Lord seemed to have realized something. He suddenly froze, then looked at Ye Xiao in shock and asked: "Don't tell me, you intend to absorb the energy and comprehend the law inside this Crystal of Darkness?"
At this point, Great Star Lord suddenly became anxious. He again said without waiting for Ye Xiao's reply: "Don't do this. In the past, there were many martial artists who wanted to absorb the energy of the Crystal of Darkness, but it wasn't that easy to absorb. Instead, their minds and heart were affected by the Crystal of Darkness and they soon turned into Evil-eyed Lions themselves. Even the Gods are unable to absorb the Crystal Of Darkness."
"I see... Thank you, Great Star Lord, for informing me." Ye Xiao cupped his hands but did not immediately throw away the Crystal Of Darkness.
He was different from other people. He had a feeling that he could make use of this Crystal Of Darkness very well unlike other people of this world.
"Perhaps, the one that can make my cultivation improve the most isn't the Impeccable Energy Stone, but this Crystal Of Darkness!" Ye Xiao's eyes lit up when he thought of this.
After chatting for a while, the rest of the conversation was mainly about how Ye Xiao should change his identity. In the end, Great Star Lord decided to let Ye Xiao replace the Eight Star Lord until the Eighth Star Lord was fully healed.
After all, the position of Star Lod can not be left empty.
