Chapter 12559 The Root Cause Has Never Been Eradicated
Ling Song Zhenjun truly gave him a great gift. The quality of these million demon corpses was extremely high. Ye Chen suddenly possessed an army of one million and a million scapegoats.

Seeing that Ye Chen's face was slightly pale, obviously due to a huge depletion of spiritual energy, Xi Yue said, "Father, you look a little pale, as if you are really tired. Let's rest for the night and set off to seize the treasure tomorrow."

Ye Chen did need to rest, so he said, "Okay."

That night, the father and daughter rested in the mountains. Ye Chen summoned the Heavenly Emperor Dragon Bed and slept with Xi Yue.

This Heavenly Emperor Dragon Bed was a Dao artifact born from his and Xi Yue's intense desires, which touched the Great Dao. Now, it is also shrouded in the black mist of the abyss.

Under the shroud of the abyss's black mist, this Heavenly Emperor's Dragon Bed could no longer nourish the body and mind, but it was perfectly fine to use it as an ordinary bed for two people to sleep in.

This bed is so meaningful; it's the culmination of Ye Chen and Xi Yue's wishes and efforts.

"Father, how wonderful it would be if we could all sleep in the same bed after we find Mother!"

Xi Yue leaned against Ye Chen's chest as she slept, whispering that she missed her mother.

What she wanted was for her whole family to sleep in one bed, together in harmony.

"Your mother should still be in Shiqiuxu, right? We'll go find her later."

Ye Chen said.

Xi Yue gently shook her head and said, "She's gone. I can feel that Mother is no longer in the ruins, but I don't know where she went."

"She and Sister Ni Chang passed by the gate of the temple earlier, but Master wouldn't let me out."

Ye Chen said, "Your master is a big bastard, an old scoundrel!"

"Well, never mind, he's already dead, so let's not talk about him."

"We'll set off tomorrow to seize the treasure, and then we'll go find your mother later."

Xi Yue said, "Okay!"

The father and daughter fell asleep peacefully in each other's arms. When they woke up the next day, Ye Chen's energy and spirit had been fully restored. He and Xi Yue then left the Wushi Nirvana Dojo and set off to seize the Chaos Wushi Bell.

Ye Chen had looted all the resources in the dojo, including pills, herbs, minerals, and Dao crystals, totaling about two million Dao crystals, which was quite a windfall.

As for the Beginningless Annihilation Technique, Xi Yue showed it to Ye Chen. After Ye Chen saw it, he felt that this technique, with its Beginningless Law and Annihilation Law, was too domineering and fierce. If he forced himself to cultivate it, he might injure himself.

Therefore, Ye Chen only accepted the cultivation manual of the Beginningless Annihilation Method and did not rashly begin cultivating it.

With his current strength, he is capable of handling most dangers, and with Xi Yue by his side, he is even safer.

“Father, the Chaos Beginning Bell is in a place called ‘Starry Void’.”

"I heard from my master that there are many powerful demons in that starry void. You must stick close to Xiyue, and Xiyue will protect you!"

Xi Yue gazed at Ye Chen and said.

"it is good."

Ye Chen nodded, quickened his pace, and headed towards the Starry Void with Xi Yue.

The original purpose of the Chaos Bell, like that of the Demon-Suppressing Pine, was to suppress demons.

This means that there are also many suppressed demons in the void of stars, and their numbers are absolutely terrifying.

Even if only a small portion of these suppressed, killed, and buried demons break free of their seals or resurrect as zombies, their numbers are still terrifying.

Ordinary martial artists would find it extremely difficult to even approach the Chaos Beginning Bell, let alone deal with these demons.

About half a day later, Ye Chen and Xi Yue arrived at the edge of the starry void.

Ye Chen looked at the starry sky. This was a desolate area, a special space suspended on the ground.

The barren land was full of craters and traces of meteorite impacts, while the sky was dark and hazy, dotted with many stars.

Today, with the world bathed in light, the sight of a dark night sky is rarely seen, but the image of the starry sky is still preserved in the vast expanse of stars.

It is evident how powerful the laws are in this place, that they have managed to block the erosion of light and retain the underlying chaotic darkness.

Ye Chen looked out and saw that there were many demons walking on the desolate and vast land, and a dangerous aura was coming towards him.

"Oh dear, Father, Mother is inside!"

Xi Yue pointed to the starry sky and suddenly shouted.

Ye Chen asked, "What?"

Xi Yue exclaimed excitedly and with delight, "My mother is in this void of stars! She must also want to seize the Chaos Beginning Bell!"

"No wonder, no wonder I couldn't sense my mother's presence, so she came here!"

The starry void is isolated from the world, and even Xi Yue cannot sense Feng Qingxue's presence in the outside world.

At this moment, she personally came to the void of stars and stood at the edge, only then did she catch a familiar aura within.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen's heart stirred, and his mind fluttered slightly. He asked, "I wonder if your mother still remembers me?"

The world has forgotten him, and Feng Qingxue has most likely forgotten him as well.

Xi Yue said, "We will remember. Even if Mother has lost her memory, we can help her regain it!"

She was full of confidence, only thinking about her family reunion.

Seeing Xi Yue's energetic appearance, Ye Chen felt a warmth in his heart and smiled, "Okay, let's go in and find your mother first."

At that moment, Ye Chen took Xi Yue's hand and officially stepped into the void of stars.

To be on the safe side, after entering the starry void, Ye Chen summoned True Monarch Lingsong and had him follow behind.

At this moment, True Monarch Lingsong had become a completely puppet-like being, without any self-awareness, only knowing how to obey Ye Chen's orders.

Entering the void of stars and standing on the barren, gray earth, Ye Chen looked into the distance and could see a huge mountain peak on the distant land.

The mountain peak was shaped like a golden bell. He could tell at a glance that it was the mountain peak transformed from the Primordial Chaos Bell!

Wisps of black, demonic energy rose from the mountain peaks, creating a magnificent sight.

This overwhelming demonic energy was terrifying; no wonder Ancestor Tianwen, Ancestor Tingyou, and Lord Liye all withdrew from the competition.

The stronger a person is, the more entangled their Dao heart with karma, and the more easily they are triggered by inner demons, falling into demonic possession.

Conversely, those with lower cultivation levels have less severe inner demons and are less likely to be corrupted by them.

If it is a young child, with a pure heart, then there is even less fear of being corrupted by demons.

"Father, Mother is over here!"

Xi Yue pointed in a direction, her expression excited and expectant. She could sense that Feng Qingxue was in that direction.

"Mother, it's me, Xiyue. Are you there?"

Xi Yue cupped her hands to her mouth and shouted loudly, trying to contact Feng Qingxue.

Her voice carried out and echoed across the desolate land, but it also drew the roars of many demons.

Ye Chen quickly covered her mouth and said, "Are you out of your mind? Do you want to summon all the demons?"

Xi Yue was startled, and then saw that from all directions, there were indeed dark figures flashing by like ghosts.

In an instant, dozens of demonic monsters surrounded her and Ye Chen.

These demons were swift and agile. As soon as they saw the two, they roared and pounced on them as if they had seen prey.

Xi Yue was about to draw her sword, but before she and Ye Chen could make a move, Ling Song Zhenjun strode forward from behind.

Lingsong Zhenjun made a hand seal, and several large pine trees rose from the ground, seemingly trying to support the sky, forcing back the charging demons. Then, the pine branches and roots twisted like pythons and dragons, binding and entangling the many demons.

Finally, Ling Song Zhenjun devoured all these demons to nourish and strengthen his own spiritual energy.

He is now Ye Chen's puppet, loyal to his master. So whenever he sees a demon approaching, he automatically protects his master and starts killing without Ye Chen having to lift a finger.

The seed of evil within him has been transferred to the future by Xiyue, and his current combat power even surpasses that of the past.

Furthermore, by utilizing the unique demon-suppressing power of the Demon-Suppressing Pine, suppressing and annihilating demons would be an incredibly easy task.

"Master is amazing!"

When Xi Yue saw that Ling Song Zhenjun had suppressed and devoured all the demons in an instant, she couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

“This old man is indeed quite skilled. Now that he has become my puppet, he is completely at our beck and call.”

Ye Chen smiled.

Looking at Ling Song Zhenjun's numb and empty face, Xi Yue felt a little sorry for him and said, "Father, I feel that Master seems a little pitiful."

Ye Chen said, "Xi Yue, you can't be too kind."

"That old bastard is trying to kill us."

Being too kind becomes a sign of weakness.

Xi Yue's heart skipped a beat, and she said, "Yes, Father, I was too cowardly..."

Ye Chen put his arm around her shoulder and comforted her, "It's alright, let's go, we'll go find your mother."

Although he had given Xiyue special training at the Wentian Chess Game before, Xiyue had not experienced much of the world and was unaware of the wickedness of people's hearts. She was still very naive.

Ye Chen didn't blame her. The most important thing now was to find Feng Qingxue.

The two continued their journey, encountering several demons along the way, all of which were suppressed and killed by True Lord Lingsong.

"This is ours!"

"You're talking nonsense! This is a mineral vein that my Lu Dao Sect discovered first!"

"What did you say? Your Lu Dao Sect wants to steal it?"

……

After traveling for a while, Ye Chen heard a quarrel. He went forward to see what was happening and found that the disciples of the Dao Asking Sect and the Dao Slaughtering Sect were fighting over a Dao Crystal mine.

The Chaos Bell is shrouded in demonic energy; anyone who gets too close risks being corrupted by it. Currently, no one can seize the Chaos Bell.

Many martial artists then began to compete for other resources.

In the vast void of stars, there are many special Dao Crystal veins that produce primordial Dao Crystals.

These primordial Dao crystals were born from the spiritual energy of the Chaos Beginning Bell and further fused with spiritual energy from outside the world. Their spiritual essence is much deeper than that of ordinary Dao crystals, which has led to much competition for them.

"Father, these people are arguing."

Xi Yue tugged at Ye Chen's sleeve and said.

"Let's ignore them and go."

Ye Chen didn't cause any further trouble. He took Xi Yue and left. As they continued on their journey, they encountered many martial artists fighting over resources, resulting in heavy bloodshed.

The Primordial Chaos Bell now stands clearly in the distance, but no one can get close to it. Those who have entered the void of stars are now vying for other resources.

As for the Chaos Beginning Bell, it was something that left everyone helpless, and no one wanted to leave, so they waited for an opportunity.

About two hours later, Ye Chen and Xi Yue arrived at the place where Feng Qingxue was. The place was filled with ghostly mist and many demons were lurking in the ghostly mist. Feng Qingxue could not be seen.

Ye Chen and Xi Yue's arrival alarmed the patrolling demons, who immediately roared and tried to pounce on them.

Ling Song Zhenjun, who was behind, was about to make his move.

Xi Yue cried out loudly, "Mother, it's me! Xi Yue!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the demons that were about to pounce on her froze as if petrified.

As the ghostly mist dissipated, a small black pool was revealed. A beautiful woman dressed in a black gauze dress sat cross-legged on the pool, seemingly engaged in cultivation.

It was a clear, snowy day.

Feng Qingxue had long inherited the divine way of Guidaoji, and the ghostly mist here was clearly released by her using the laws of the ghostly way.

The demons responsible for patrolling were also controlled by her using demonic magic.

Upon seeing Xi Yue, Feng Qingxue was stunned, seemingly unable to believe her eyes, and said:
“Xi Yue, it’s you.”

Upon seeing Ye Chen and Ling Song Zhenjun beside Xi Yue, she became wary again and asked, "Who are these two?"

Seeing that Ye Chen and Ling Song Zhenjun both possessed extraordinary auras, she became wary.

Ye Chen felt a pang of pain in his heart when he saw that Feng Qingxue had indeed forgotten him.

Xi Yue grabbed Ye Chen's hand and quickly said to Feng Qingxue, "Mother, he's Father! Have you forgotten him?"

"Father?" Feng Qingxue was taken aback. She looked at Ye Chen again, sizing him up and down. Then her heart started pounding faster, and a strange emotion was brewing within her.

"Qingxue, have you forgotten me?"

"Look at this."

Ye Chen raised his finger, and a single strand of hair appeared on it.

That was the strand of hair that Feng Qingxue tied to his finger when he left Qiuxu. It was also a thread of affection, a beacon and a mark.

This strand of hair embodies the law of pure love; as long as the law of pure love remains, the thread of affection will never die.

So even if Ye Chen died and was reborn, this strand of hair would still exist.

Upon seeing the strands of affection, Feng Qingxue's pupils dilated sharply, and her expression changed, as if some important memory was about to resurface, but it was blocked by a layer of dark mist and could not be revealed.

"This is...I..."

She gently bit her red lips, clutching her head as a sharp headache struck.

She had actually discovered long ago that she had amnesia, lost some of her most unforgettable memories, and forgotten something very important.

But she didn't know what she had lost, nor could she get it back.

All she knew was that her lost memories were related to Xiyue's father!
She couldn't remember who Xiyue's father was. At this moment, she saw Ye Chen and the strands of love on Ye Chen's fingers. They were strands of her hair. Her past memories were gradually returning, but the dark fog of the abyss was surging, and she was in great pain.

The abyss annihilated Ye Chen, erasing all traces of him in the world. Anyone who tries to remember Ye Chen will suffer the dark curse of the abyss!

Xi Yue's Dao heart is pure and simple, and darkness cannot corrupt her, so she can easily regain her memories.

But Feng Qingxue is different. If she wants to regain her memories, she must first break through the dark curse of the abyss!
Dark mists churned in her mind, and the curses of the abyss assaulted her violently, as if chanting a lament:
"Give up, give up, don't touch the unknown taboo."

"Forgetting is a good thing; knowing too much is a kind of pain."

The voice was incredibly detailed, like a nightmare.

"No!"

Feng Qingxue gritted her teeth and endured the torment of the dark curse of the abyss, forcibly reviving her memories.

Then, countless images flashed through her mind, and the scenes she experienced with Ye Chen surged up like a tide, especially the time when they were deeply in love, which was truly unforgettable.

She remembered! She remembered everything!

Seeing Feng Qingxue's body swaying violently and her breath fluctuating, about to fall into the black pool, Ye Chen reacted quickly, flying over to pick her up and carrying her back to the shore.

Feng Qingxue was held in Ye Chen's arms. Feeling Ye Chen's presence, her heart was in turmoil. Her cheeks flushed, and she stared blankly at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen smiled and gazed at her, saying, "You remember everything now, right?"

Feng Qingxue was almost completely exhausted, collapsing limply into Ye Chen's arms, holding him tightly, tears streaming down her face, and said:

"sorry Sorry……"

"I...I had completely forgotten you..."

She never imagined that she would forget Ye Chen.

She has forgotten such an important person and such an unforgettable memory.

If Ye Chen hadn't appeared and returned to her, she might never have remembered him.

"It's okay, it's not your fault."

Ye Chen gently embraced Feng Qingxue and softly comforted her, while sighing inwardly. The power of the abyss was indeed terrifying; it had actually erased all traces of his existence.

Only a supreme being like the Abyss could pull off such a heaven-defying feat.

Fortunately, the traces of his existence are like a towering tree; the abyss only severed the trunk, but the roots remain.

As long as the foundation remains and the roots are not erased, the world will not truly forget Ye Chen completely.
