The Sound Demon, Chakali, was very experienced and had broad knowledge. He sampled the delicacies offered by Yang Ling and continued explaining various Dimensions’ situations to the crowd. He talked about everything, including astronomy and geography. He ranged from the mysterious Death Dimension to the fascinating Half-Dimension, and from the lofty Creator to various Dimensions’ peerless powerhouses.

A long time ago, it wasn’t forbidden for outsiders to enter the Death Dimensions, and many experts that practiced the Slaughter Law or Death Law would travel into the death Dimension to train in it or even summon some powerful Undead Beings. But later, the worldly rules changed greatly for some unknown reason, and none could enter the Death Dimension other than the souls released by people after their death. Even the strongest wanderers couldn’t enter it.

Some said that the worldly laws changed because the number of souls in the Death Dimension was too high, while others said that the previous Death Core Deity had been provoked by the lofty Creator. This Core Deity was killed, his soul extinguished, and his Death Dimension sealed by the infuriated Creator.

“Mr. Chakali. Could it really be that there isn’t any way to enter the Death Dimension?” The Corpse Wizard King wore a sad look. He wasn’t willing to accept this, so he questioned the experienced Sound Demon.

“It isn’t really completely impossible, but it’s very difficult, and it’s nearly impossible.” The Sound Demon, Chakali, muttered to himself for a moment before saying, “If you can seek the Creator or the Heavenly Nun in charge of the God Prison and ask for their help, you may get to use the Space-Time Wheel to create a spatial fissure in the Death Dimension, and you may even create a special Dimensional Channel leading to it. But it’s nearly impossible for ordinary people to see the Creator or the Heavenly Nun, let alone persuade them to provide help.”

As the Sound Demon spoke, he shook his head repeatedly. Even though he could go back to the God Prison, it would still be difficult for him to see the Heavenly Nun. In the past, the Heavenly Nun had given him a way out and helped him just for the sake of their friendship.

“Brother Chakali, who is the Heavenly Nun, and how can we see her and ask for her help?” Yang Ling looked at the Corpse Wizard King, who closed his bloodshot eyes in despair, and let out a sigh. He questioned the Sound Demon further to see whether there was any feasible way.

“The Heavenly Nun is a special envoy, respected greatly by numerous peerless powerhouses, and most of the people that escaped from God Prison did so with her help. In addition, her power has reached an astounding level, and her comprehension of Soul Laws is beyond your imagination. Her touching zither music is laden with grief, and it has entranced many peerless powerhouses. It traps them in an illusion, and they shed tears out of quiet grief.” Chakal took a sip of cold rum and let out a sigh before he said, “The Heavenly Nun is a great being, but she’s also a pitiful woman.”

The Sound Demon recounted this to them in a deep voice.

A long time ago, there had been a flourishing period where many Wandering Battle Teams ran amok in various Dimensions. The strong Dimensional Wanderers formed teams and adventured together. They traveled freely in dangerous spatial turbulence, and they toured every Dimension. At that time, the most famous group was the Flowing Cloud Battle Team. It was said that this team was swifter than a shooting star. It was an invincible top-notch Wandering Battle Team.

Some people said that this Wandering Battle Team toured all Dimensions under the leadership of their captain, and some people said that the Flowing Cloud Battle Team’s Star Indicators created a vast starry map that included every Dimension. It was also said that the Flowing Cloud Battle Team had once traveled to the Unending Ocean’s edge and come in contact with the legendary Crystal Wall. Others said that after the Flowing Cloud Battle Team’s nine members joined hands, their power surpassed the lofty Creator, and none could rival them.

The Flowing Cloud Battle Team had once created many legends.

Many Wandering Battle Teams had appeared at that time, and they developed to the apex. Then, a disaster suddenly befell them. The lofty Creator commanded the people to disband all battle teams for an unknown reason and killed anyone who violated the order. Many people were killed by the envoys and factions affiliated to the strong Creator and he used a never-before-seen carnage to demonstrate his great power and authority.

When many Wandering Battle Teams that had fought back bravely were being slaughtered, the Flowing Cloud Battle Team, who had been traveling in the Unending Ocean, showed themselves suddenly and slaughtered one of the best factions loyal to the Creator, the Bahrain Divine Branch. They raised the Bahrain Core Deity’s head on a pole and carried out a slaughter in the Graveyard of Gods and Devils. The struggling battle teams finally saw a glimmer of hope.

The Flowing Cloud Battle Team had stepped forward and fought bravely to bring hope to the people. But they’d also brought a real disaster to the people.

The unfathomable Creator, who never showed his face, finally attacked. None of the Flowing Cloud Battle Team’s members, widely known for their speed, retreated, and they were all defeated by the Creator’s unfathomable powers. All nine members sustained serious injuries, even the captain. Some of them even died on the spot, their souls extinguished. A certain female teammate called Norris willingly became a special envoy that couldn’t betray the Creator, in order to rescue a heavily injured teammate. She sacrificed her freedom to give her teammate a chance to survive, and she changed her name to the Heavenly Nun that day. She worked day and night helping the Creator guard the dangerous God Prison.

The impressive Flowing Cloud Battle Team collapsed then, and it became a part of history.

“The Wandering Sword Venerable, Heavenly Nun, and Lightning Explosion Star Lord. They were all experts standing at the summit in the past. Unfortunately, they were all defeated by the supreme Creator.” The Sound Demon sighed and said, “After Lightning Explosion Star Lord sustained serious injuries, he retreated into the depths of the Graveyard of Gods and Devils and never showed himself in front of people again. The Wandering Sword Venerable, known as a devoted lover, traveled everywhere with his wife’s corpse looking for a way to revive her. The captain, who’d awed everybody for a period, went missing, and no one had any idea of his whereabouts. The most pitiful out of them is the Heavenly Nun, who can’t ever betray the Creator; she has to guard God Prison alone. She’s accompanied all year long only by a wooden zither. A piece of grief-laden zither music would show the way to the experts lost in the Unending Ocean, and it would also make them shed tears of sorrow.”

“Brother Yang Ling, it isn’t impossible to get the Heavenly Nun’s help. If you find her sweetheart, the heartless Flowing Cloud Battle Team’s captain from the legends, she would surely take any risks. She wouldn’t even mind enraging the Creator by helping you open the Death Dimension’s seal.” As the Sound Demon recalled the zither music that reverberated in the Unending Ocean, a sad look appeared on his face.

“Brother Chakali, you have just said many peerless powerhouses were looking for the Flowing Cloud Battle Team’s captain back then, and you said that they had done so to repay the favor bestowed upon them by the Heavenly Nun. Even those people couldn’t find him. So, where could I find this old fellow?” Yang Ling chuckled bitterly and gave up on entering the Death Dimension. He really wanted to help the Corpse Wizard King, but he didn’t have enough power. If he became a powerful Wizard God one day, he would probably have enough power then, and he would see whether he could break the Death Dimension’s seal by force.

The crowd led by Yang Ling stayed in Corolla Valley for a while and asked the Sound Demon about other matters. They also studied the way to craft and decipher Star Indicators while they waited calmly for the Golden Roc’s report.

The Sound Demon, Chakali, focused on the Soul Law’s practice, but he still had a deep comprehension of the Ice-Sealing Law, Earth Law, Fire Law, and other aspects. Yang Ling managed to learn quite a lot in just a few days with this man. Unfortunately, even though Chakali had broad experience, he had never ventured into the Nine Phantom Mountain Range or explored Skyreach Tower. He just knew that the tower existed there; he couldn’t provide any help to Yang Ling in this regard.

Yang Ling wanted to find the way back to Earth, so he asked Chakali all about various Dimensions. He also focused his energy on studying the mysteries of Star Indicators, even taking out the Star Indicator he’d gotten in the Church’s treasury. He gave it to Chakali and asked him to appraise it. But even after Chakali spent hours with it, he couldn’t find any useful clues. This strange Star Indicator attracted the attention and interest of Chakali, but he couldn’t get anything from it, even after studying it for several days. He couldn’t discern what regions were recorded on the Star Map on the Star Indicator.

Roar!

One day, Yang Ling, directed and guided by the Sound Demon Chakali, was trying to craft a Star Indicator when the Golden Roc suddenly swooped down from a high altitude. It instantly appeared atop the crowd’s heads. “Lord, hurry up. The Titans affiliated with the Power King have discovered the Mother Nest’s location! It’s in the surroundings of the Nine Phantom Mountain Range. Hurry up! Let’s head over there promptly to take a look.”

The Nine Phantom Mountain Range?

Yang Ling’s eyes lit up, and he collected the half-finished Star Indicator he’d been crafting without a moment’s pause. The Corpse Wizard King, the old Dragon Turtle, Kaleisa, and the others were scattered along the valley, training. Yang Ling summoned them urgently, then looked at Chakali and said, “Brother Chakali, it’s said that the legendary Mother Nest can produce Wandering Divine Beasts. Let’s go. Why don’t we take a look at it together?”

Over their time together, the Sound Demon’s power had recovered further. He still hadn’t made a full recovery, but his power was already much greater than before. His Soul Energy had become much stronger, and it was at least ten times stronger than it had been when they met. If Yang Ling could invite Chakali to explore the Nine Phantom Mountain Range with him, he would be even more confident about this operation.

“Brother Yang Ling, the Mother Nest is very powerful, and it can’t be owned by anybody. You shouldn’t insist too much on some matters. If it’s ordained by fate that something is yours, then it won’t escape from you. But, if it’s ordained by fate that it isn’t yours, then all effort will be futile. Now, you have learned how to craft Star Indicators, and it’s time for me to leave the Chaos Dimension. If it’s possible, we may still meet again. But you must bear this in mind: you should be very careful in the Nine Phantom Mountain Range. Don’t ever be careless.” The Sound Demon, Chakali, tactfully refused Yang Ling’s invitation. After he’d recovered most of his power, his mind had become preoccupied with the Unending Ocean. If he didn’t have to teach Yang Ling, he would have left the Chaos Dimension long ago.

“Brother Chakali, you must also be careful on your journey.” Yang Ling discerned that the Sound Demon had his own hidden trouble, so he didn’t press him. He got on the Golden Roc’s back with the Corpse Wizard King, the Blood Angel Ophelia, and everyone else, and then he waved his hand and bid farewell to the Sound Demon, Chakali. Then they took off for the distant Nine Phantom Mountain Range.
