Currently, Ye Xiao was 10 years old, but he was already the Third Cycle of Chaotic Transformation warrior. This was an outstanding cultivation speed that is almost impossible to be seen on every Land.
Yes, even though it is extremely rare, geniuses with such speed of cultivation could be seen at many places in different ages and times.
The First King was such a genius.
When he was just nine years old, he had already reached Ye Xiao’s level of cultivation. He was born in the Land of No Return, that is the current name. As for what the name of that Land was when the First King was just born, only his disciples might be aware of this truth.
It was not a secret that the top six forces of Chaos are in control of the top six Forbidden Lands. The Calamity Family was one of those six forces.
Aside from the top six families, the Spiritas Race was in control of the only Sacred Forbidden Land of Chaos. The Spiritas Race was a race that cultivates their soul instead of Chaos Energy. Every single person of the Spiritas Race is an incredibly beautiful existence, but at the same time, they are also horrifying.
When they are furious, they could take every single life on any Land within seconds, and that is without any physical injuries or destruction. Everything about the Spiritas Race is related to souls. And the only Sacred Forbidden Land under their watch and control is also related to souls.
Finally, there are two unique Forbidden Lands. One is the Forbidden Land of Nine Hell where Abyssals resides. No existence in Chaos dares to step in this Land, for even a tiny trace of Abyssal Energy could cause a very strong cultivator’s death.
And the second unique Forbidden Land is the Land of No Returns where the First King was born.
As for how that Land became a Forbidden Land was called the Land of No Return, it was also something that only First King’s disciples should know. Of course, there might be other existences knowing the truth.

╠ Forbidden Land of No Return ╣
There was a very special place in the Land of No Return. This was desert, a huge and endless desert without a single sign of vitality.
Surprisingly, the desert was just like any desert, however, the sky above the desert was not the same. The sky was completely dark, without any sign of light. Surprisingly, although the sky was void of any light, the desert was as hot as a river of magma. It was burning hot, as if it could easily incinerate people. At the same time, the sunless sky was actually lighting up the entire desert with sunlight.
And at a certain place in this desert, there were six sand pillars standing, forming a circle. And the empty space between these six pillars had a stone platform with carvings of unknown characters and strange lines that were shining with blue light.
And right underground this platform was a long dark tunnel. At the end of the tunnel, a huge underground cave was opened. As big as this underground cave was, exploring it even in a month is impossible.
Shockingly, the entire cave was also covered in the same characters and lines that were carved on the surface of the platform.
Many fork-like passages in the cave lead to countless sub-spaces.
In a certain room inside this huge cave, a middle-aged man’s soul was chained. These chains also had runes shining on them. The middle-aged man’s eyes were closed, but suddenly, he opened his eyes and the entire cave trembled.
A crazy expression appeared on the middle-aged man’s face as he tried to break the chains with a loud roar, causing the earth to tremble and the dark sky to flash with dark lightning that was impossible to see, but its rumble reverberated that let people know that the sky was thundering.
Gaining no result of his madness, the middle-aged man’s soul calm down but a creepy smile replaced his craziness. He said: “It has started. I can feel it… the presence of the destined one who will succeed you, master.”
“Hahahaha… But master, how long? If he will really succeed you, then he is destined to come here for the final trial. And when that time comes… Hahaha. For how long can you stop me from meeting him? How long do you think you can keep me chained here? I promise master, the day he comes here will be the day I will break free of your restriction. And when that will happen, hehehe…”
As he spoke, the runes on the walls of the entire cave lit up. Flashes of electricity ran through the walls and gathered on the runic chains as they gave a horrifying shock to the middle-aged man’s soul, causing him to let out a demonic howl that showed how great pain he was suffering.
However, after the painful scream, he started laughing maniacally once again. Although his soul suffered a terrifying attack, there was no damage to his soul at all. He only suffered pain. As for what kind of pain and how unbearable the pain was, it is not something that could be described in words.
…..
In a faraway place, there was a land fully covered in ice. Small and big trees, little grasses, stones and pebbles, mountains and rivers, everything about this place was completely buried under a thick layer of ice.
But even so, this icy plain was bustling with countless people.
There was a huge city on this icy plain somewhere. And at the center of this city, a huge golden pagoda stood tall. This Golden Pagoda looked exactly the same as the one Ye Xiao entered.
People could be seen entering and exiting this Golden Pagoda. Some had happy expressions while some were extremely sad and showed bitter smiles on their faces.
And somewhere deep inside this pagoda, in extreme darkness, Yu Feng was floating in the air with a posture of sitting cross-legged. A water screen was divided into many parts and every part was showing different scenes in front of him.
Yu Feng had his eyes closed, but he seems to have felt something as he opened his eyes.
He muttered: “That monster is causing trouble again. I just don’t know why master did not kill him instead of sealing him!”
“It is because even our master was unable to kill that monster. He successfully destroyed his body, but destroying his soul was impossible. In the end, this monster belongs to the Spirtas Race. In terms of soul, no one could be compared to them.”
It turns out that in this dark space, Yu Feng was not the only one present. Even Yu Han was lying on a mat not far away from him.
Yu Han lazily stood up and continued to say: “Anyway, master can take care of this monster. We just have to guide Ye Xiao and see if he could obtain all three keys or not. If he could, it means he is the destined one. And then, he could really walk on the path the First King once walked. And our mission will end there!” ｂｏ𝚟𝚕.
Yu Feng nodded in agreement. Then he showed a doubtful expression and said: “It is just that I can’t understand why master needs a successor to walk on his path. If he wants to complete what he was unable to do in the past, he could simply continue to cultivate. There will definitely come a day when he will surpass the limit and do that. Why does he need a successor?”
“Let’s not delve into master’s matter. We will only do what we are told!” Yu Hao said and Yu Feng nodded.
…..
Yu Rong also felt something, but she did not react too much.
Currently, she was sitting in front of Ye Xiao and talking with him.
“Can I return to my family now?” Ye Xiao asked.
“No!” Yu Rong shook her head and chuckled evilly: “Your training has not even begun, how could you return so quickly?”
“But you clearly told me before that…”
Before Ye Xiao could complete his sentence, he was interrupted. Yu Rong spoke coldly: “I know what I told you exactly. I clearly told you that you could only return to your family as long as you could achieve a certain level of strength. The current you… Although you did improve by two cycles of Chaotic Transformation, you are still far away from the desired goal. In fact, I also told you to make Chaos Spirit Realm your goal. Become a Chaos Spirit Realm warrior and you could go back to your family.”
“So, never ever ask this question again!”
Ye Xiao took a deep breath and nodded, asking: “Can you tell me about Time Force now?”
“You are not yet there to know. Become Chaos Spirit Realm warrior and I will tell you.” Yu Rong’s reply was still the same.
“This…”
Ye Xiao suppressed his anxiety with great difficulty and finally asked: “Then what is next?”
