"You are saying Jia Fei died the moment she stepped in the void, then how could she..."
Before Ye Xiao could complete his question, Void God replied: "That's exactly the mystery I always wanted to solve. I have no idea how she returned to life!"
Taking a deep breath, Void God continued: "You should know where that I witnessed her death with my own eyes. I never expected her to be so rushed and step into the Void while chasing after me. She died so quickly because of the invasion of berserk Chaos Energy into her body that I was unable to react in time and save her."
Ye Xiao was puzzled and surprised at the same time. Now, this was really a mystery.
As far as Ye Xiao knew, a person might reincarnate or return to life in some other way. However, the only condition is for their soul to be fine. As long as one's soul is not destroyed, one could return to life.
However, this is not true for Jia Fei.
According to Void God, even her soul was corroded and completely disintegrated. N(o)vᴇl(F)ire.net
"How can you and others move in the void without getting affected by the berserk Chaos Energy, but Jia Fei can't!" Ye Xiao asked an important question.
The limit of Heavens is Ancient God Realm and it is very likely that he would step into chaos while being an Ancient God. He needed this question to be answered, for it'll soon be related to his survival.
"That's because even the weakest of us is a Divine God." Void God continued: "The Divine God Realm is not just a cultivation realm transcending the Ancient God Realm, it is also a huge change. As long as a person becomes a Divine God Realm martial artist, they would go through a special kind of transformation. This transformation gave birth to a special energy that is very similar to that of a Source Universe's Cosmic Membrane."
"Cosmic Membrane easily protects a Source Universe from berserk Chaos Energy in the void for as long as the Source of a Universe exists. And being the similar energy, when using it as a barrier around our body, we could protect ourselves from berserk Chaos Energy's invasion. But this is not a long-term solution."

"That's how we Divine Gods survive in the Void!"
Ye Xiao nodded his head in understanding. He understood now. He understood everything, as to why Jia Fei wanted to kill Void God so much.
He now understood that Void God is not the villain he was thinking him to be all this while!
The only puzzling thing was how Jia Fei is still alive and how did she end up inside the Heavens.
There is another question though; how did Heavenly Demons end up birthing into Heavens?
Ye Xiao didn't hesitate to ask his questions.
Void God replied: "Let's forget about how Jia Fei came back to life. Let's talk about how she... No, we... How we end up in Heavens!"
"After I failed to save her in time, I left the scene and went to look for some other opportunities. That's when I came across the wooden box that I found inside a ruin floating in the void. Even though countless years have passed and berserk Chaos Energy could corrode and disintegrate anything in the Void, that ruin's main hall still survived. And there was only one thing left in the main hall, and that was the wooden box!"
"I wanted to open the wooden box many times, but the moment I approach closer to the wooden box, I sense a great danger. It is as if a monster is waiting for me to help him open his mouth. The moment the mouth will open, that monster will swallow me whole!"
Ye Xiao nodded upon hearing this. This was exactly how he felt when he got closer to the wooden box. That's why he became more alert and cautious and retreated immediately. He had never felt that kind of danger before.
The Void God continued to speak: "Since I couldn't open the wooden box, I stored the main hall inside my own vault where I used to store my treasures. The Ancient Temple you saw earlier and went inside was actually the main hall that I just talked about. After storing it inside my vault, I repaired it and carved a formation using my own blood, making an absolute connection with the main hall. Everything inside is in my control. And after that, I once again started wandering in the endless void."
"And one day, Jia Fei appeared in front of me once again, with her cultivation rising to the Fake God Realm. The moment we saw each other, she attacked me and started fighting me with all her strength. Her only ambition was to kill me."
"I never wanted to be her enemy, but she never gave me a chance to explain. After constantly being put up in a difficult situations, I also gave up on explaining things. And that was when we had our last fight, a great battle."
Saying this, Void God stopped and waved his hand, causing ripples to appear in the air. He floated in the air and his body started glowing golden. Then strangely, golden fire surrounded his body, and very soon, a huge tower of fire appeared in the sky where Void God was floating.
This scene was magnificent.
Void God's voice rang out then: "During our last fight, we crossed over an unknown length of distance and coincidentally appeared in front of your universe, the Heavens. Your universe seemed to be going through a period of great chaos at that time, causing a tiny crack to appear in its Cosmic Membrane."
"Jia Fei was heavily injured, thus she decided to escape. During her escape, she even stole my vault and entered the Heavens through that crack."
"How could I let her steal my vault?"
Void God waved his hand and along with golden fire, a humongous golden screen with a fiery border appeared. A scene appeared on the fiery screen and Ye Xiao started seeing the event of the past.
After looking at the complete event, Ye Xiao finally understood everything.
It turned out that Void God had also entered the Heavens, chasing after Jia Fei. It led them to have another intense battle, and during that battle, the Void God's Vault fell into a certain world.
Void God defeated Jia Fei but did not have the heart to kill her. So he found a perfect place where no one could find her and sealed her there. As long as no one break the formation, Jia Fei would have remained sealed.
It was a pity that Ye Xiao broke that formation and even got enchanted by Jia Fei.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWell, after sealing Jia Fei, Void God could have taken back his vault, but he decided the opposite. He decided to wait for people to find his vault and enter. At that time, he would make sure to lead them inside the Ancient Temple and make them open the wooden box.
So, he left the Heavens and entered Chaos.
The flow of time is very different in Chaos as compared to Heavens.
Although many eras have passed since then, to the Void God, only tens of thousands of years have passed. This wait was not long.
During this period of time, a group of people did enter the Abandoned Divine World, but they never came near the Void God's vault, thus no one entered.
Ye Xiao and Queen were the first two people to enter the Void God's vault, and so, Void God didn't want to lose this opportunity. He wanted to use either Ye Xiao's hand or Queen's hand to open the wooden box and obtain whatever is stored inside.
He also wanted to find out what kind of weapon is stored inside that was giving him such kind of dangerous feeling just by coming closer to the wooden box.
What will happen when the wooden box is opened?
Ye Xiao now understood everything.
The only thing he was unable to obtain the answer to was how Jia Fei came back to life.
As long as he could solve this puzzle, he would no longer have any questions left in his mind.
He also asked why Jia Fei could communicate with him inside the Void God's vault but did not enter herself.
Void God told him it is because as long as she enter his vault, she would be trapped.
"What about the Heavenly Demon you sealed inside your vault?" Ye Xiao asked the vital question.
"When the Void God's vault fell, the seal was broken somehow and the Heavenly Demon managed to escape. However, I had taken a precaution before sealing him. Even though he managed to escape, he would not have lived long. He must have died a few hundred years later without any way to escape back to the void!" Void God answered.
