Chapter 928: Strike
In the Void of Chaos, some distance away from the universe, six figures roamed. Each of them radiated the aura of laws. Wherever their forms passed, existence was carved out from the void; wherever their gazes landed, the laws themselves shifted and changed.
At this moment, the six had gathered. Their inner spirits intertwined, allowing them to exchange thoughts.
"We're all finally here."
"The others... have they really gone into the depths of the Chaos? Are they truly not coming back?"
"So the decision is made?"
"No matter what, we have to try. It's either we get swallowed by the Void, or be erased by the power of Eternity. I've had enough of this aimless drifting, day after day, lost in confusion and haze."
"I agree with Miao Ya. Whatever the outcome, even if it means our end, we have to do something. Taking action is better than doing nothing at all."
Among them was none other than Creator Miao Ya, whose avatar had once fiercely clashed with Li Pin in the Astral World. That confrontation helped Li Pin grasp the power of reincarnation.
The fact that the other five spoke with Miao Ya as equals made it clear that they were the true forces behind the Astral Lord Council. They were ancient cultivators from the era of the Ancient Astral World, exiled by the mysterious power suspected to be Eternity.
One of the figures beside Miao Ya said, "I've looked into this universe. Its vitality still hasn't recovered from the great upheaval. Many have reached a level comparable to the Transcendent Realm, but only by taking shortcuts and merging with the universe's power. They are no match for us. With our strength, we can eliminate all resistance here."
Another, who identified himself as Yong Yao, echoed the sentiment. "I, along with Miao Ya, Tian Zhu, and Yun Ting, believe the time has come for us to return. After all these years, that terrifying presence has likely long since left. The fact that we're slowly awakening from our dazed state and no longer feel fear toward that universe is proof enough. This may be our best chance to come into contact with that power..."
While addressing the group, he turned to another among them. "Li, what about you?"
