After listening to the recording, Ling Chen's face was washed blank with confusion, like his brain cogs couldn't turn fast enough to process the shocking information he just received.

He just stood there frozen in place with his mouth wide opened from shock, an expression which had seemed to not be part of his repertoire.

He was at loss for words and his mind was sent reeling as he was unable to think straight. Everything was outside of his imagination and he wasn't prepared for any of it.

It took him a long time before he regained his composure and started to go over everything. Though he wasn't able to get the answers to all of his questions, he still got some important information about his past and origin.

For example, the woman who he thought to be his mother turned out to be his subordinates as well. Furthermore, this life seemed to be his second as he had another one before that.

He also seemed to have been a big shot in his previous life and was also betrayed by some of his people.

She also mentioned something about Myriad Realms Tree Seed which caught Ling Chen's attention the most.

From what he could tell, the Myriad Realms Tree Seed seemed to be the Dark Godly Tree within his sea of consciousness and lower-dantian.

Though Ling Chen didn't know anything about the so-called past life and why he was betrayed, he had the feeling that the Myriad Realms Tree Seed had something to do with it.

Even with his limited knowledge, he could tell that the Myriad Realms Tree was something priceless and heaven-defying. Not to mention he had personally experienced its power as it had fused with his nascent soul.

Aside from that, Ling Chen also knew that the people that have betrayed him in his past life seemed to be aware that he was still alive. As such, they were still looking for him along with the Myriad Realms Tree Seed which had fused with himself.

Nonetheless, even though Ling Chen had a glimpse into his past life and origin, he still had a ton of unanswered questions.

For instance, how was he able to be reborn, and how his strand of soul was able to fuse with the Myriad Realms Tree Seed?

Who were those people that were after him? How powerful were they? Were they in the Nine Ring of the Chaos Universe or a different place etc?

These were questions that were plaguing Ling Chen's mind among a ton of others.

"It seems like I'll have to speed up everything and increase my strength as soon as possible." Ling Chen murmured to himself.

Now Ling Chen knew that there's an even more powerful enemy looking for him, he was in a rush. He wanted to quickly get stronger to protect himself as well as his new family.

Even though he didn't know that what he had lost in his previous life, he knew what he would lose if he were to slack off.

At the same time, he was also eager to discover the whole truth about his past life and his origin as well as how he came to be.

"Ohh shit! What I am gonna tell father?"As Ling Chen was thinking about his next move after listening to the visual recording of his mother, he suddenly remembered that his father was waiting for him in the Akasha Spiritual World.

At this moment, he found himself in quite a dilemma and didn't know what to do. Though Ling Tian was his father, he didn't want to tell him the truth.

Everything was simply too confusing and shocking. Even Ling Chen didn't know to address the woman if he ever met her. She was both the woman who gave birth to him and also his subordinate.

From the recording, the woman didn't even address him as her son and simply addressed him as his majesty. Furthermore, she didn't even ask for Ling Tian or his well being.

"It seems like I am going to lie to him until I resolve everything." He murmured to himself after making his decision.

He didn't want to break his father's heart and gave him false hope. As such, he decided to hide everything for now.

However, as soon as Ling Chen made his decision and was about to enter the Akasha Spiritual World to talk to his father, the Fire Monarch's suddenly rang out:" Senior Chen, I am here to inform you that we have arrived in the capital city of the Neapetria Star where the Lester Family's headquarters is located."

Upon hearing the Fire Monarch's voice, Ling Chen suddenly tilted his head next to the window to look.

Looking down, Ling Chen saw a humungous city. The entire city was surrounded by behemoth city gates and colossal walls

Whether it was the Imperial Capital of the Kagon Empire or the Verid Empire, and all the major cities in the 8th Ring of the Chaos Universe, they were nothing to compare to this city below him.

Comparing them was similar to comparing a small mud-brick house seated next to a palace. Even though it was considered a city, one could still see numerous huge mountains and pavilions that reached into the sky.

Giant and tall buildings could be seen everywhere in this place, and divine bridges that spanned across thousands of miles.

The people walking next to the building and the city walls were akin to ants that were crawling on the ground. Yes, ants that crawled on the floor.

Looking at the giant city below, even Ling Chen felt very small.

"Not bad." He murmured himself.

As Ling Chen was admiring the giant and prosperous city below, the Fire Monarch's voice rang out again, informing him that they have arrived at the headquarters of the Lester Family.

At the same time, Ling Chen also sent a message to the Dark Primordial Shura Gods through spiritual transmission, telling them to get ready.
