"Simply restore all his memories!" The Fox Person waved a hand, and a yellow gem materialized in it. "Take this back through the doorway you came from; that door is his heart's door."

"Why are you helping me?" Yexiu knew he faced a tough battle ahead, yet the solution was handed to him so easily. "Simply because I am also from the Fox Palace?"

"Fate is something no one can clearly explain. My fate is just to give this gem to someone, that's all there is to it!" The fox woman ceased speaking, transforming into a cute little fox that bolted toward the setting sun's afterglow.

"Hoo..." A chilling wind swept down from the peak. The three-colored jeweled gate unexpectedly appeared behind the two figures.

"Let's go, brother. Our next step is to seek out your memories." Yexiu clapped Jun Bugu on the shoulder and pulled him behind him. "I never realized you were connected to the Fox Palace too."

Jun Bugu let out a wry smile and shook his head. "Who knows? I only have vague impressions; I truly can't recall any deep connection with these beautiful foxes."

Yexiu approached the door and fitted the yellow gem into the socket. A violent gale erupted from within the portal, sweeping both men inside again.

"Clack!" In the pitch-dark corridor, the two humanoid silhouettes raised twin swords, poised to cleave down upon them.

"Spin the door quickly!" Yexiu shoved Jun Bugu, narrowly preventing a direct blow to the head. "We're back again! Hurry and find the next door to enter."

"Blue, blue!" In his panic, Jun Bugu spun the dial until it matched the blue gem socket. Suddenly, a rush of water sounded from behind, and the two were inexplicably washed into the passageway.

Beneath the Nine Heavens, a spherical blue orb stood proudly in the world. All currents of water seemed to surge toward the Profound Heaven, as if a massive power was gathering within the sphere.

"What is this thing now? Is this another one of your dreams?" Yexiu looked upon the scene: a vast ocean where a blue sphere spun, while he and the other stood precariously on a cliff edge. "Hoo... truly miraculous."

Jun Bugu shook his head, uncertain. "I have absolutely no memory of this thing. Heaven knows what that sphere is."

"Swish..." Suddenly, a streak of sword light burst forth from the blue sphere, moving with unparalleled dominance toward the two figures.

"Go!" Yexiu leaped quickly to another spot. Looking back, he saw that section of the cliff had been pulverized into dust by the aura of light. "Scary. That power is immense."

"Indeed!" A deep, resonant voice echoed, and the blue sphere swayed slowly. "There should be that power present; has it truly vanished?"

Jun Bugu, following Yexiu, clung to the edge of the cliff and asked curiously, "This thing can speak? What does it mean?"

"Heavenly Scrutiny Divine Sense!" Yexiu summoned his sword, launching an equally dominant beam of sword light toward the sphere. A blue light instantly flashed around the sphere, neutralizing the attack into nothingness. "This thing is deeply mysterious."

"Futile effort! Childish." The sphere flashed and darted directly above the heads of the two, spinning as if looking down upon them. "This body is slowly gaining the power of the Demon Realm Primordial Fetus, but why has it all been extracted?"

"Demon Realm Primordial Fetus..." Yexiu staggered back several steps in shock. Wasn't the Demon Realm Primordial Fetus the true form of Jun Tianxia in the Demon Realm? What did this sphere mean? Could it sense the power of the Demon Realm Primordial Fetus, or perhaps...

The blue sphere radiated light, its voice echoing with power that shook the surroundings. "I recall that none of your Demon Realm Primordial Fetus power could be drawn out. Have you undergone some other strange transformation?"

Jun Bugu, hounded by the sphere's questioning, was pushed to his limit. He demanded, "What exactly are you? Where is this? You do not exist in my memory."

"Oh? You don't even recognize my Demon Realm Primordial Fetus?" The sphere uttered a sound of surprise, startling the river water behind it into turbulence. "Where is this? The Demon Realm Primordial Fetus is about to take control; this is the entrance to the Boundless Realm! Hahaha!"

Yexiu studied the blue sphere closely. It appeared to be composed entirely of water, making it hard to believe this was the true body of the Demon Realm Primordial Fetus. "You are the Demon Realm Primordial Fetus? What is your relationship with this guy?"

"I faintly sense the power of the God of Death. Why can the God of Death's power merge with the Demon Realm Primordial Fetus's power?" The blue sphere showed confusion, ignoring Yexiu and circling repeatedly around Jun Bugu. "Demon Realm power enters the Boundless Realm; only the Primordial Fetus power is worthy of ruling all realms. What standing does the God of Death have?"

Jun Bugu was utterly bewildered, cautiously whispering to Yexiu, "This thing keeps saying the power extracted from my body comes from the Demon Realm Primordial Fetus. Does that mean the other Jun Bugu is from the Demon Realm?"

"This... is highly probable!" Yexiu also began to realize this point. Consider that Jun Bugu was composed of two different beings—a composite entity formed from multiple powers, and one connected to the God of Death, the Fox Clan, and the Demon Realm.

"Heh heh, the Demon Realm power is here. Everyone submit!" The blue sphere muttered to itself, then leaped and vanished into the sky. A blue gem dropped from its form, identical to the yellow one before it. "Hahaha!"

"I never realized that the people of the Demon Realm began their campaign in the Boundless Realm since antiquity, even predating the King of the Dead Kingdom!" Yexiu sighed. The scenes he witnessed along this path were clearly tied closely to Jun Bugu. "I think once we enter the next door, we will be able to fully unlock your memories. I am quite curious to see what kind of being you are."

"Not just me, but that other Jun Bugu too!" Jun Bugu spoke seriously for the first time, a trace of worry in his tone. People tend to grow more anxious the closer they get to the truth. "I'm starting to think the merging of my two personalities wasn't some kind of affliction, but perhaps a coincidence? A necessity for survival!"

Yexiu summarized the preceding events, pondering. "In ancient times, the Demon Realm Primordial Fetus was merely a source of power. When it invaded the Boundless Realm, the other Jun Bugu was likely an embodiment of that power, but..."

"But the invasion failed that time, and the Demon Realm Primordial Fetus retreated, yet that Jun Bugu was forced to remain in the Boundless Realm," Jun Bugu deduced, following Yexiu's line of reasoning about his past and present lives. "For some reason, that Jun Bugu had to seek out the power of the Fox Clan to survive within the Boundless Realm."

Yexiu, with half-lidded eyes, could already envision the rest of the story. He walked toward the main gate and smiled. "There is one last door; I imagine it concerns the invasion of the Boundless Realm by the God of Death."

"What are we waiting for? Let's go." Jun Bugu was equally resolute, though he couldn't resist a joke. "Be careful on the way out; those two humanoid figures might have their blades ready for us."

At the Thousand Cave Insect Palace, under Canan's command, the Bone Sect members relentlessly unleashed extreme techniques, bombarding the palace gates. The entire Karma Forest swayed under the barrage of attacks.

Canan was growing impatient. He had intended to annihilate the Demon Insect Sect in one blow, but the terrain of the insect gate was too treacherous, and the Bone Sect couldn't breach it. "Left Marshal Hou, do you have any other method to conquer the Demon Insect Gate?"

Marshal Hou's eyes flickered toward the Serpent Controller holding the spirit snake. "Only the Scarlet Snake can enter beneath the earth, but the Demon Insects also have serpents; the Scarlet Snake's attacks won't be very effective."

"Damn that Drought Fiend Insect Emperor! Give it everything! I refuse to believe it can rest easy beneath the ground!" Canan, exasperated, sent out a streak of sword light that shattered the entire cavern entrance. "Vermin, come out and face your death! The Bone Sect shall stand supreme over the Boundless Realm; you little rats!"

Left Marshal Hou, watching Canan's outburst, advised, "The army has been outside the Barren Bone City for several days. Perhaps we should return to the city first and then devise a plan for the Demon Insect Gate?"

"Nonsense! There is no reason to retreat without a fight!" Canan thrust his sword into the ground. The resulting shockwave caused the earth itself to erupt. "Dig three feet deep for me! I refuse to believe those tiny Demon Insects can hide that far down."

The Bone Sect soldiers, fueled by Canan's rage, followed suit, using extreme force to dismantle everything on the surface. Their goal was clear: slay every member of the Demon Insect Sect and avenge their Great Sect Master and fallen kin!

Beneath the Thousand Cave Insect Palace, chaos reigned. The Drought Fiend Insect Emperor, gravely weakened due to his Evil Eye, repeatedly suppressed his anger, wanting to rush out and fight. "Damn the Bone Sect! Do they truly believe the Demon Insects have no one left?"

The Demon Ant Strategist, his face perpetually smiling, reassured him, "Why must the Insect Emperor be so anxious? In a little while, the poison mist reserve of the Myriad Poison Pearl will be ready. By then, these Bone Sect fools won't dare act so wildly."

"Hurry and prepare! I wish I could go out and slaughter every last one of them! Ah..." The Drought Fiend Insect Emperor thrashed in agitation. The stabbing pain in his eye returned. "Ah, the backlash from the Evil Eye is too obvious; I cannot control it at all. I must quickly find the other two parts of the Evil Body."

The Demon Ant Strategist nodded, placating the Emperor. "Your subordinate has heard that the three fierce entities of the Evil Body are intrinsically linked. Your Majesty doesn't need to search for them; they will come to you. We only need to scheme how to kill the owners of the other two pieces."

"Has Yexiu not returned? He has been gone for several days now." Although the Insect Emperor didn't fully trust Yexiu, he had placed nearly all his hopes on that individual. "My Evil Eye is useless now; otherwise, I could check on that fellow's situation."

The Demon Ant Strategist agreed with the Emperor's sentiment, nodding. "For now, we only need to neutralize the Bone Sect. The Insect Emperor must focus on recovery. When Jun Tianxia breaks the ice, I believe the three fierce entities of the Evil Body will gather at Mount Sumeru. With the numerical advantage of the Demon Insect Sect then, how could our great undertaking fail!"
