Another week has passed. Ling Yun and his group immediately rushed to the 44th floor without resting, especially since their journey to the top was still too long.

Zhou Yu, who was floating in the air with Ling Xi, suddenly raised her eyebrows. She then stretched her hand forward to grab the item that suddenly shot out of the void, but her expression instantly turned serious when she realized the item’s function.

“Does that item contain the memories of your predecessor?” Ling Xi inquired as she examined the item.

Zhou Yu nodded in response. “I don’t know how this item suddenly appeared here, but it contains the memories of the previous void spirit. I hesitate to use it, especially since the current me has not reached her level yet, and I don’t know what will happen to me if I absorb her memories.”

“Why are you suddenly doubting yourself?” Zhou Yu turned to Ling Xi. “Among our race, you are the one with the highest self-confidence because of your ability in the void element, and you always feel capable of doing anything without thinking about the consequences.

Despite his status as our Emperor, Zhu Ling’s self-confidence is not even as high as yours, and he relies too much on Jing Shen to make decisions.”

Zhou Yu let out a sigh and looked up at the sky. “Back then, I lived freely without being tied to anyone, and I didn’t care much about anything else except for myself. However, so many things have changed now, and those changes somehow scare me.”

“You mean the hidden danger because of the chaos, right?

“The danger is one of them.” Zhou Yu then looked at Ling Yun, who continued to fly around while attacking the beasts below them. “The chaos is completely different from the void, especially since it is the core of our universe. At first, I was confident that I could help him, but it brought doubt to me, and I increasingly doubted my own abilities.

Besides these two, there are still some other changes that have always bothered me, but I still don’t have the answers to those things. The three prophecies also give me fear, especially since we don’t yet know the outcome.”

“Honestly, I also have fear in my heart.” Ling Xi said that with a heavy sigh. “I have long fused my soul with Ling Yun, but I fear I won’t be able to stop him if the outcome of the three prophecies causes him to go berserk. Moreover, he has a tendency to choose the devil’s path, and I fear what might happen if he chooses it in the future.

His character might change completely if he chooses that path; he might become a cold-blooded and emotionless killer, and his changes will make the people around him suffer.”

Zhou Yu once again turned to Ling Xi and asked. “What would you do if he became like that? The current him is completely different, as he already possesses the true immortal energy within his body. Even though he hasn’t completely become an immortal, I’m not sure we can stop him, let alone kill him.

Even if we had the ability to kill him, we would never be able to kill the man we love with our own hands.”

“Being born as an immortal is my worst curse.” Zhou Yu laughed after Ling Xi said that. “I can kill the current Ling Yun if I sacrifice myself, but I will eventually be reborn because there are so many lustful living beings in this universe, so I will never do it. Otherwise, I will suffer much more than when my first love died, especially since I love him too much now.” freёwebnovel.com

“Haha.” Zhou Yu laughed again. “If you hadn’t contacted me back then, I would never have met Ling Yun, and I would never have been entangled in these feelings. However, I don’t regret it, as his presence has significantly changed my life, making it no longer dull.”

After saying that, Zhou Yu immediately closed her eyes and absorbed the item in her hand, leaving Ling Xi shocked and anxious. Instantly, the memories of the previous spirit of void flooded her mind, and her expression became completely serious as she watched them one by one.

“What do you get from those memories?” Ling Xi inquired immediately after Zhou Yu opened her eyes.

“I’m still incomplete, Big Sis.” Zhou Yu’s answer made Ling Xi frown. The first spirit of void is the only complete one, and her successors continually weaken due to their deaths. The current me is the weakest spirit of void, and my successor will be even weaker after my death.”

“How to perfect yourself?”

Zhou Yu sighed heavily before revealing the information to Ling Xi. “Based on the memories of my predecessor, I must retrieve the memories of all the previous spirits of void, and there were a hundred spirits of void before me.”

“Hmm?” Ling Xi appeared perplexed by this, prompting her to question Zhou Yu once more. “If your predecessor already knew that, then why didn’t she take their memories? If she had done so, she would have been as perfect as the first one, right?”

“Big Sis, retrieving their memories isn’t a simple task, especially since those memories are hidden deep within the void itself.” Zhou Yu looked at Ling Xi with an amused smile, especially since the spirit of lust knew nothing about the void. “To tell you the truth, the void has three layers: the void core, the middle void, and the outer void.

Not even my predecessor could go too deep into the middle void, let alone enter the void core. That’s why she was unable to retrieve their memories, especially since the only person who could assist her in doing so was deceased a long time ago. However, his successor has returned, so I have the opportunity to retrieve them.

Unfortunately, he is not yet perfect and is still weak, so I must wait for him to become stronger and perfect himself first.”

“Who is the person you are referring to?”

Zhou Yu shrugged her shoulders slightly before pointing at Ling Yun. “Our husband is the one.”

“Eh?” Ling Xi immediately turned to Ling Yun. “How can he help you to retrieve those memories?”

“Why do I feel like you’ve become stupid now, Big Sis? Usually, you can immediately grasp the meaning of other people’s words, but you’re confused by it instead.” Ling Xi returned her gaze to Zhou Yu and frowned. “Big Sis, Ling Yun is the successor of the primordial chaos dragon, and the chaos is superior to the void, so you should already understand, right?”

Ling Xi finally understood after Zhou Yu said that. “Your predecessors couldn’t retrieve their memories because the primordial chaos dragon didn’t exist in their era.”

“That’s right.” Zhou Yu replied with a nod. “The primordial chaos dragon and the first spirit of void lived in the same era, and he died before her. After she died, his successor never appeared until this era, so the other spirits of void can’t enter the void core, especially with our strength continuing to decline with each death.”

“Is the difference in strength between the first and second spirit of void so big? Why can’t the second spirit of void enter the void core?”

Zhao Yu shook her head at Ling Xi. “The previous spirit of void doesn’t have that much information, so I don’t understand why the second spirit of void can’t enter that place. In order to become the next primordial chaos dragon, Ling Yun still has to obtain the other four body parts of the old dragon: his dragon bone marrow, his dragon eyes, his dragon core, and his dragon heart.”

“His dragon heart is clearly in Huang Lingzhu’s hands.” Both spirit women then looked up at the sky. “One of his body parts is at the top of this tower, but we don’t have any information about which one is there.

I hope that body part is his dragon core because half of his power is stored in it, and Ling Yun’s strength will increase greatly if he manages to obtain it, so we will be more prepared to face the supreme realm.”

“I agree with you.” Zhou Yu said it with a nod. “However, I think that the main key in order for Ling Yun to become the next primordial chaos dragon is the old dragon’s bone marrow, especially since it will strengthen his bloodline and skeleton.

Although his body has become extremely strong after the old dragon’s skeleton merged with him, I believe his body is still insufficient to accommodate his dragon core and heart. Therefore, he requires a stronger body to accommodate both. If he gets his core now, I’m afraid his body will explode because of his excessive strength, and this universe will lose its hope.”

Ling Xi nodded in agreement. “Forget it; we just need to wait for Ling Yun to reach the peak, and we will know the result then.”

Day after day passed quickly, and after spending one and a half months in the void, Ling Yun’s clone finally arrived at the Sky Cloud Realm. He immediately returned to Yunlong Zhuzhai to meet the four pregnant women.

“Yun’er!” Yi Mingxia immediately called out to him as soon as she arrived there, but she did not dare to run to him, especially since her stomach had grown bigger because of her pregnancy of almost five months.

Ling Yun’s clone immediately went to Yi Mingxia and helped her walk. “You look even sexier when you’re pregnant like this, Mom.”

“Haha.” Yi Mingxia laughed softly and hugged his arm. “Even though this is just your clone, I’m glad you’re back here, Yun’er. This way you won’t miss the birth of our son and also the birth of your other children with your grandmother, Sister Xiaoyi, and Sister Ning.”

Ling Yun’s clone nodded to his mother. “At first, I thought my clone wouldn’t be able to cross the void alone, so I didn’t dare to send one back. However, my cultivation has reached the peak venerate realm now, and Zhou Yu said it was okay, so I immediately sent one back. This way, I can witness the birth of my children, and I can accompany them until my real body returns.”

“Yeah.” Yi Mingxia then rubbed her bulging belly. “If you wait until you finish the mysterious tower to come back, your children will probably be quite old by then, and they won’t recognize you.”

“Haha.” Ling Yun’s clone laughed at that. “If my kids can’t recognize their father, I’ll spank their asses.”

“Humph!” Yi Mingxia snorted at that. “We won’t let you do that! I haven’t even hit you since you were little, remember?”

“Well, that’s true.” Ling Yun’s clone replied with a nod. “Honestly, I don’t know when my real body can come back here, and it will probably take me a year or two to finish the tower. Every time we go to the next floor, the beasts there get stronger, and their numbers also continue to increase.

It’s been a month and a half since this clone left the tower, but we’re still stuck on the 48th floor, so there are still 52 floors left.”

Yi Mingxia nodded in understanding. “It’s okay; you don’t have to push yourself too hard, and your real body should continue to be careful in the tower. At least your clone is here now, so you can focus on accompanying us, especially your children. Let’s go; we have to meet your grandma, Sister Xiaoyi, and Sister Ning.”
