Even among Han Xuanji's many disciples at the Mystic Heaven Dao Palace, it was speculated that their master was finally about to bare his fangs.

The most excited among them were naturally Lu Fan and Jiang Hao.

One was the Human Emperor, ambitious and determined to develop the human race in the Immortal Realm into a top-tier race in the Chaos Realm; the other followed the path of invincible combat, so naturally they wanted to fight.

Su Ming then chuckled and teased Jiang Hao:

"With your Tongtian cultivation, if your senior brother truly intends to unify the Chaos, would you even need to intervene?"

"Too..."

Jiang Hao also realized this, and his face immediately fell, speechless.

Being Han Xuanji's disciple has a million advantages, the only downside is that there aren't many opportunities to fight. Now that others know his identity, they don't dare to attack him for fear of offending him. Even if they agree to spar with him, they will hold back in every way.

Su Ming knew Jiang Hao's thoughts and said:

"Then why don't you hide your identity and try your luck? If you really encounter danger, you can always reveal your identity later..."

"What if... what if others don't believe it?"

Jiang Hao rolled his eyes at Su Ming. Although he was warlike, he didn't want to die.

Seeing that Jiang Hao wasn't fooled, Su Ming chuckled.

While the two were joking around, they both saw a message.

" The Soul Ancestor is coming to visit Master?"

Jiang Hao exclaimed:

"I remember she was allied with Merchant Venerable Juntian before. I wonder how sincere she was."

This was a powerful being at the Hunyuan Wuji Perfection, who also ruled over a powerful Chaos clan. I never expected him to submit so easily.

Su Ming frowned. Although he felt that the Soul Ancestor was not a good person, after all, they had previously joined forces to attack Han Xuanji, he still spoke up:

"Given your senior brother's abilities, she wouldn't dare harbor any ulterior motives. She's probably just afraid and wants to emulate the Dragon Ancestor and Star Ancestor..."

"That's true, maybe she's taken a liking to Master..."

Jiang Hao smiled.

These words made Su Ming shake his head, and he said calmly:

"I'll tell that to my senior brother next time, let's see what you do then!"

"Ah? No!"

Jiang Hao panicked instantly and begged for mercy, which made Su Ming burst into laughter.

Meanwhile, Mystic Heaven Hall.

Han Xuanji also learned that the Soul Ancestor was going to visit him.

Upon hearing the news, Han Xuanji's lips curled into a slight smile, undoubtedly a friendly signal from the Soul Ancestor.

"As expected, the Soul Ancestor finally couldn't hold back any longer."

He knew that the Soul Ancestor's move was both a gesture of goodwill and a way to secure his own future.

The Soul Ancestor knew that he was not a character like the Devil Ancestor, who would not act without a righteous cause, so he took the initiative to show goodwill and make his stance clear.

To avoid ending up like the Devil Ancestor and the Merchant Venerable Juntian,

A few days later, the Soul Ancestor arrived in the Immortal Realm as scheduled and headed straight for the Mystic Heaven Dao Palace in the Thirty-Three Layers of Heaven.

She was dressed in black, with a cold expression. Her aura seemed weak, but in reality, it contained terrifying power. She was Hunyuan Wuji Perfection expert of the same level as the Devil Ancestor and the Dragon Ancestor.

The Soul Ancestor had made an appointment, and Han Xuanji had told everyone not to stop them, so the journey to the Mystic Heaven Hall was peaceful.

Upon seeing Han Xuanji, the Soul Ancestor felt little awe, but rather a degree of probing.

She had always been curious about Han Xuanji's rapid rise to power and what her background was.

Are they both from the Eternal Continent, just like her?

She truly couldn't believe that someone like Han Xuanji could be born from this Primal Chaos.

"Greetings, Fellow Heavenly Dao."

The Soul Ancestor was lost in thought, but outwardly remained respectful and did not reveal his true feelings.

After all, Han Xuanji's strength was undeniable. Although she looked down on "native" powerhouses like the Dragon Ancestor, Star Ancestor, and Devil Ancestor from the bottom of her heart, she knew in her heart that she didn't have Han Xuanji's ability to easily fight against multiple opponents and suppress powerhouses of the same level.

"No need for formalities. What brings you here, Soul Ancestor?"

Han Xuanji had already seen through her thoughts, and was somewhat surprised.

This Soul Ancestor is quite bold, actually coming in his true form; it seems he's showing considerable sincerity.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the Soul Ancestor subtly began to probe Han Xuanji's background, subtly inquiring about his past and origins.

Han Xuanji told her the truth.

He's really just an ordinary "native" person. He's been able to cultivate to where he is today entirely through his own hard work and sweat, as well as a little bit of help from the system.

Seeing that Han Xuanji had not revealed any useful information, the Soul Ancestor sighed inwardly and asked directly:

"Fellow Daoist, do you know how vast the world beyond Chaos is?"

Han Xuanji nodded, neither confirming nor denying:

" Chaos is but a green leaf in the endless Primordial Sea. Although we have reached the pinnacle of Chaos, we are in reality nothing more than ants."

"Fellow Daoist, you have come from afar. It would be better to speak frankly. I already know your purpose and origin."

"The origins of Mystic Heaven Dao Venerable are indeed extraordinary..."

The Soul Ancestor sighed softly, knowing that further probing would be futile and might even provoke the other party's anger. He decided to stop beating around the bush, his expression becoming serious as he slowly spoke:

" Heavenly Dao, to be honest, I am not a being from this Primal Chaos. I come from the Eternal Continent beyond the Chaos, which is what you call the Other Shore."

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere within the Mystic Heaven Hall momentarily froze.

A hint of surprise flashed in Han Xuanji's eyes. Although he already knew the other party's identity, the Soul Ancestor's straightforward revelation of his identity was still somewhat unexpected.

The so-called Eternal Continent, also known as the Other Shore, is a place dreamed of by many powerful beings in the Chaos. Before leaving, the Dao Ancestor told the Heavenly Emperor that he was going to find the way to the Other Shore.

Specifically, it likely refers to a continent located outside the Chaos, the significance of which is self-evident. It certainly contains a large number of powerful beings above the Hunyuan Wuji, as well as a much wider world.

"Yes, I already knew."

Han Xuanji said calmly.

"As expected, I couldn't hide it from you, fellow Daoist. You are probably not a being from this Primal Chaos, are you?"

Seeing that Han Xuanji wasn't too shocked, the Soul Ancestor smiled and asked.

"Hmm... I'd say that's a fair assessment, but I don't know much about the Eternal Continent."

Han Xuanji thought for a moment and nodded.

Strictly speaking, he was also a time traveler.

According to his observations, the world he lived in in his previous life was not this Chaos world.

Could it be that the system brought him here?

Hearing Han Xuanji's answer, the Soul Ancestor was somewhat puzzled, but quickly filled in the blanks with many thoughts.

It's possible that Han Xuanji comes from a force in the Primordial Sea. It's worth noting that there are also terrifyingly powerful beings in the Primordial Sea who have established their own sea kingdoms, achieving eternal Immortal. Perhaps Han Xuanji is a being from one of those eternal kingdoms, so it's normal that he doesn't know much about the Eternal Continent.

In that case, Han Xuanji would be even more easily won over by her.

In her view, Han Xuanji's current predicament must have been due to some unfortunate circumstances.

The Soul Ancestor paused for a moment, then continued:

"My father is a Sage Realm expert on the Eternal Continent. He has come to visit you, fellow Daoist, to earnestly request that you allow us to return to the Eternal Continent together."

Her tone was somewhat sincere. In this Primal Chaos, although she possessed the strength of the Hunyuan Wuji Perfection, she was limited by the Chaos and found it difficult to break through. Only by returning to the Eternal Continent could she have the opportunity to advance further. Perhaps she could also use Han Xuanji's talent to gain a foothold in front of her father and even obtain more resources.

In just a few words, Han Xuanji gleaned a considerable amount of information from the Soul Ancestor.

Firstly, realms like Chaos are called Primal Chaos, representing worlds born from the Tree of Eternity.

Secondly, there are definitely many realms above the Hunyuan Wuji Realm. For example, the Soul Ancestor was at the Dao Master level in his previous life, and the so-called Sage Realm Stage might be even higher...
