Alex hadnât wanted Yuno to know about the few beads he had since the beginning. Who knew what
ghostly incarnation Yuno was?
What if she turned out to be some vicious woman?
Judging from the tone of her speech, she was an old monster that was older than his grandparents.
However, what could he do when the beads had jumped out all on their own?
The matter was divided into two ends now. Yuno insisted that the bead was Mother Chaos and not the
Chaos Bead. However, she had also said that the mysterious bead and the Celestial Oceanic Bead
were broken Chaos beads. Adding on the fact that the three beads had now become one, what she
had made some sense.
âWhat is Mother Chaos?â Alex asked.
âHave you heard of the Chaos Bead? According to legends, the Chaos Bead is the most precious
treasure that appeared when the world was in chaos during ancient times and when the heavens and
earth were separated. Itâs called one of the Four Great Chaotic Treasures. Itâs infinitely powerful, but for
some reason, this Chaos Bead was broken into twenty four Chaos Beads and one Mother Chaos. Itâs
already a great opportunity to get just one of them. I didnât expect you to have three.â
âWhen the world was in chaos during ancient times? The heavens and earth separated?â Alex was
stunned. He was a modern man, and he had naturally received modern education. The legend about
the heavens and earth splitting open, he had heard it many times when he was younger. That was just
myths. How could it be taken seriously?â
Even if he had received an inheritance from his ancestors that made him embark on the path of
cultivation, wasnât this just too exaggerated?
âDid Phanes, the primordial being, who separated heaven and earth, really existed?â
Yuno shrugged. âYouâre asking me that? I donât know. Itâs just a legend.â
âThen, this Chaos Bead, isnât it just a legend too?â Alex pointed out.
Yuno replied, âItâs true that Iâve only heard of the origin of the Chaos Bead. Who could have lived long
enough from that ancient period till now? However, even if itâs a legend, I know the power of the Chaos
Bead. Iâve seen it used before, and it was a boundless power that is formidable.â

At the same time, in the palace hall of Leviathan Gateâs headquarters.
The men and women who were bathing in the spiritual rain suddenly realized that the liquid had
stopped pouring, and no more spiritual rain was forthcoming. Even the ancient formation around the
hall seemed to have lost its power, and all the runes that flowed beneath their feet had also stopped.
âWhatâs going on? Why did the holy water bath stop?â One of the younger disciples from Leviathan
Gate asked aloud.
They had described the spiritual rain as holy water.
âYeah, Holy Maiden, I heard that the annual bath day for Leviathan Gate lasts for at least one hour, but
itâs only been five minutes at most right now. Why did it suddenly stop?â Snow asked, an unsatisfied
expression on her face.
Snow had gone through the trouble of traveling such a long distance to come here for the sole purpose
to bathe in the holy water. She was different from the others. Even her junior sister, Sister Flora, was an
actual cultivator, and Snowâs cultivation was only stronger than hers, so naturally, Snow was also an
actual cultivator.
The people from Leviathan Gate didnât know how to absorb the essence from the spiritual rain properly,
but she did.
When the spiritual rain had rained down upon her body, she didnât need words to describe how happy
she was. Even in the Holy Church, such benefits were rarely seen and even more rare to obtain.
If it could last for an hour, she believed that she could absorb 80% of the essence from the spiritual
rain, which would help her break through her current rank. However, she didnât expect it to be gone just
after five minutes, which was such a short period.
Could she be happy with just that?
Nier replied, âI donât know either!â
Snow frowned and said, âHas something gone wrong with the formation here? Or, the mechanism for
the spiritual rain has been broken? Could you get someone to fix it quickly?â
Nier smiled bitterly. âHoly Emissary, to be honest, even our sect master canât figure out the source of
the spiritual rain, so we have no way of knowing! As for why the spiritual rain only lasted for five
minutes, and nothing else is coming out now, we canât fix it because, in the depths of the palace, there
are restriction formations everywhere, and we are not able to go in at all.â
After that, they waited another five minutes.
Still, nothing came out.
Everyone on the scene was extremely disappointed. Snow was not willing to let it go just like this.
This was a rare, once in a lifetime opportunity. It had taken her a long time to get permission from the
Holy Church to come here and participate in the bath. As for the formations, she happened to have
some knowledge about them as she had researched a little before.
She immediately said, âIâve studied formations and arrays before. I will try and see. Perhaps there
really has been a problem.â
In her mind, if she could find the source of the spiritual rain, then why would she still need to take a
bath with them? Wouldnât it be better if she just soaked in it? Right now, she had to look at all these
people in front of her, who were as foolish as pigs, and even take off her clothes alongside them, it
really made her speechless.
