After severing his connection with the primordial chaos consciousness, Ye Ling began the process of entering the Primordial Realm and seeking the authority to control it.
Currently, the Primordial Realm lacked consciousness, and the authority to control it was like money dropped on the ground. Ye Ling gained control of the entire Primordial Realm with little effort.
Instantly, a vast amount of information related to the Primordial Realm flooded into Ye Ling's mind. At the same time, Ye Ling felt a profound and mysterious powerful force directly pouring into the Primordial Realm from the void.
"Is that the so-called Void Source Power?"
Sensing the strange power entering the Primordial Realm, Ye Ling immediately guided it to transform into the fundamental power that constituted the Primordial Realm – Primordial Source Power. Subsequently, Ye Ling injected the Primordial Source Power into Zhu's body, allowing Zhu to once again represent the consciousness of the Primordial Realm.
As Ye Ling completed this series of actions, Zhu awoke from her slumber, her eyes filled with confusion.
"Am I... still alive?"
Zhu sat up, looking at her intact body, and for a moment, she couldn't comprehend what had happened.
She only remembered that her missing sister had suddenly returned from the void, killed her with immense power, and the consciousness of the Primordial Realm had been taken away by a group of mysterious figures dressed in red.
The Primordial Realm should have been heading towards its demise.
However, Zhu, being the consciousness of the Primordial Realm, possessed considerable insight and composure. She quickly calmed down, observed her surroundings, and then her gaze fell upon Ye Ling. With surprise and joy, she exclaimed, "Brother Ye? Did you save me?"
Hearing Zhu call him "Brother" so suddenly, Ye Ling was taken aback. "You know me?"
Zhu quickly stood up and smiled at Ye Ling. "Of course, I know you. I heard about a legend from the primordial chaos long ago from the consciousness of the Primordial Realm. I even saw your portrait. I'm your little fan!"
"Moreover, not long ago, the consciousness of the Primordial Realm told me that you had become the Overlord of the Primordial Chaos and would come to our Primordial Realm to help us. I had been preparing for a considerable time for this. I just didn't expect... something unexpected to happen, making you laugh, Brother Ye."
As she spoke, Zhu's emotions turned somber.
After all, being betrayed by one's own sister was an unbearable experience.
Although Die had been targeted by those around her since childhood, Zhu had always done her best to help Die. However, the malice Die received was too great, and she couldn't see Zhu's help at all.
After Zhu became the representative consciousness of the Primordial Realm, she tried to help Die. But by then, Die had already disappeared, and even if Zhu wanted to do something, she couldn't find her.
Ye Ling had seen Zhu's memories and understood the reason for her current dejection. He smiled and said, "It's alright. This incident is not your fault, and there's still a chance for recovery."
"Brother Ye, have you thought of a way to rescue the consciousness of the Primordial Realm?" Hearing Ye Ling's words, Zhu quickly composed herself and asked.
"Yes... the Red Robe Cult that took the consciousness of the Primordial Realm, they are an organization in the void that specializes in hunting world consciousnesses. Your and Die's experiences were all orchestrated by them."
"Die's life was manipulated by the Red Robe Cult?" Upon hearing Ye Ling's words, anger clearly surfaced in Zhu's eyes.
After becoming the representative consciousness of the Primordial Realm, she had asked the consciousness of the Primordial Realm why it had always targeted Die. At that time, the consciousness of the Primordial Realm was completely unaware of Die's plight; it didn't even know of Die's existence!
In fact, from that moment on, Zhu knew that someone was working behind the scenes. However, those people acted in secrecy, and Zhu couldn't investigate anything.
Ye Ling continued, "I suspect that the Red Robe Cult hunts world consciousnesses for Void Source Power. As long as you continue to operate within the Primordial Realm and create the illusion that a part of the Primordial Realm's consciousness remains, they will likely send people back to investigate."
"When that happens, as long as the members of the Red Robe Cult appear, the rest will be up to me."
Hearing Ye Ling's words, Zhu nodded. "No problem, Brother Ye. I'll reveal myself in the Primordial Realm right away and make some significant moves."
Speaking of which, Zhu glanced at Die, who was now under Ye Ling's control, and asked Ye Ling, "Brother Ye, what about Die..."
Ye Ling smiled. "Don't worry, she's not primarily responsible for this. If you don't intend to pursue it, I won't take any action."
Zhu said happily, "Thank you, Brother Ye! I'll go to work now!"
With that, Zhu turned into a wisp of smoke and left the endless sea of clouds.
As Zhu departed, Bai Lan couldn't help but ask Ye Ling, "Master... is your plan really going to work? That Red Robe Cult has already captured the consciousness of the Primordial Realm. Even if Zhu is revived, they might not come back, right?"
Ye Ling smiled. "Just having Zhu act alone naturally won't guarantee the return of the Red Robe Cult members."
Bai Lan: "Then Master, you..."
Ye Ling made a slight gesture, and the controlled Die stood up like a puppet, frozen in place.
Ye Ling said, "Die is a pawn of the Red Robe Cult. Even though she's now a discarded piece by the Red Robe Cult, she still knows many of their secrets."
"The Red Robe Cult is an organization that operates in the shadows. Even the monitors' archives do not record the existence of the Red Robe Cult, which indicates they are extremely afraid of exposure."
"After all, if the consciousness of the Primordial Realm can communicate with the consciousness of the primordial chaos, it means that other orderly world consciousnesses with complete rules can also communicate with each other. Once organizations like the Red Robe Cult are exposed, other world consciousnesses will be on guard, and the Red Robe Cult's work will be impossible to carry out."
"Now, if the Red Robe Cult discovers that both Zhu and Die are still alive, they will have reason to suspect that Die has temporarily turned against them, suspecting betrayal."
"Even if they aren't seeking new Void Source Power from the Primordial Realm, they will return to the Primordial Realm to confirm whether their organization has been exposed!"
From Die's memories, Ye Ling had a rough understanding of the Red Robe Cult.
Although the Red Robe Cult hunts various world consciousnesses, their overall strength is not as great as behemoths like the Sky Walkers and Monitors.
With the strength of the Sky Walkers and Monitors, they can openly invade and occupy various orderly worlds. Therefore, the Sky Walkers and Monitors do not care if the world consciousnesses know of their existence.
After all, in the face of overwhelming power, even if the world consciousnesses are prepared, they will still be crushed by them.
However, with the strength of the Red Robe Cult, they cannot achieve this. Therefore, they can only plan slowly in the shadows.
Once the world consciousnesses become wary of the Red Robe Cult, it would be a devastating blow to them!
