The Origin Immortal Sword!
Wang Chong suddenly thought of the sword he was holding, and the realization left him stunned. The Origin Immortal Lord had said that he had been waiting for him all this time, but Wang Chong had never imagined that he would have even established the Origin Immortal Sect, the underground palace, and even found the Origin Immortal Sword…
All of this existed in preparation for his arrival!
This was simply too unbelievable!
Wang Chong found it impossible to calm down.
“…The mysteries of destiny had me wait more than one thousand years, but in the end, I truly did manage to meet you. Now, I can finally give you that object.”
The Origin Immortal Lord gave a long sigh of relief.
Wang Chong’s heart thumped and he raised his head in shock.
Object?
What object?!
As numerous thoughts flew through Wang Chong’s mind, the Origin Immortal Lord exploded with golden light, the almost tangible energy of the Subtle realm gathering at the tip of his finger.
Soon after, a tiny golden seed the size of a fingernail but brighter than the sun had gathered at the tip of the Origin Immortal Lord’s finger. If one looked carefully, one could see that this seed had several strange patterns on its surface.
These patterns had a life of their own, crawling across the surface of the seed like waves.
“!!!”
Wang Chong’s eyes flew open. Though there was nothing too impressive about the seed’s appearance, Wang Chong could sense boundless power within it. This was only a small portion of its power, but it was enough to leave Wang Chong stupefied.
“This is an extremely important ‘World Seed’, a seed that I have expended all my life’s efforts on and have guarded for more than one thousand years. From the moment I realized that an unprecedented disaster was lurking beneath the surface of this calm world, I thought of every method to find a way to save the world. In the end, I managed to condense this seed. This seed is the world’s sole hope.
“This seed is still incomplete. My attempts to glimpse the secrets of the heavens expended too much of my essence blood and soul for me to complete this seed. I can only leave that task to you. You have things that I do not, so perhaps you can complete what I could not!”
The Origin Immortal Lord slowly offered the golden seed to Wang Chong.
Wang Chong glanced at the Origin Immortal Lord and saw an unprecedented solemnity on his face. It was obvious that this seed occupied a position of paramount importance in the Origin Immortal Lord’s mind.
Sensing the weight of this seed, Wang Chong also turned solemn.
“Senior… in that danger you saw, just how much hope does the Central Plains have of surviving?”
Wang Chong did not immediately take the Origin Immortal Lord’s seed.
“The hope of the Central Plains does not rest on me, but on you. No one can be sure of the future. All I can do is struggle with all my strength!” the Origin Immortal Lord sternly said, his eyes brightly shining.
Wang Chong fell silent, a thoughtful look in his eyes. After a long while, he extended his hand and took the golden seed.
Buzz!
He immediately felt an icy sensation at his fingertips like he had been stabbed with a needle. But a moment later, Wang Chong realized that this had been no illusion. The golden seed really had stabbed his finger, extracting and absorbing a drop of blood.
The golden seed immediately became immaterial, transforming into a streak of light that vanished into Wang Chong’s body.
“This!”
Wang Chong’s face froze in shock.
The golden seed had seemed to completely vanish for a moment, but he soon felt a strange sensation. In a flash of light, the golden seed appeared in his mind, where it began to slowly turn.
Before Wang Chong could react, he felt a tide of information coming from the golden seed.
“This is… the Origin Immortal Art!”
Wang Chong was startled when he realized what was contained in this information. This was a difficult and abstruse mantra, the Origin Immortal Art that he and the Demonic Emperor Old Man had so desperately sought.
Even though Wang Chong and his master had expended a great deal of energy to overcome the first-generation successor and Bagushidu, they had still not obtained the Origin Immortal Art.
He had never imagined that this was how he would obtain the world’s number one art.
Wang Chong felt the blood rush to his head in excitement. This mantra was complete, even including the method for the Trayastrimsa Heaven. With this number one art, Wang Chong could solve the flaw of the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art once and for all.
“Notice: an unknown object has been discovered in user’s body! Inspecting…”
The familiar voice of the Stone of Destiny rang out in Wang Chong’s mind.
“An unknown energy has been discovered. This energy is related to user’s mission. Notice: user has unexpectedly received an important object. This object is an unknown variable that could lead to an alteration in the world’s progress and user’s ultimate mission.
“Special Event! User’s rewards and penalties unknown! Analyzing…
“Initial Analysis: Seed (Unknown Object). User has been rewarded with 300,000 points of Destiny Energy. Notice: the final judgment has not been determined. User could possibly suffer a massive penalty, resulting in a large deduction of Destiny Energy! Notice: because user has triggered a special event, the Stone of Destiny has begun to unlock a special ability. Time to unlock: unknown!”
A string of messages resounded in Wang Chong’s mind.
How could this be?
Wang Chong was stunned. This was the first time something like this had ever happened, the first time the Stone of Destiny had not been able to determine what an object was. Moreover, this seed had also been able to trigger a new ability of the Stone of Destiny, but at the same time, the time until this ability was available to him was unknown.
At this moment, the Origin Immortal Lord spoke, his voice now rather tired. “The Origin Immortal Art inside the seed can resolve the problems with your body. As for the seed itself… it will be the last hope for this world. I hope that it can assist you in saving the world from its destiny of destruction. This is all I can do to help you.”
The Origin Immortal Lord looked at Wang Chong, entrusting all his hopes with a single glance.
“Many thanks, Senior!”
Wang Chong deeply bowed to the Origin Immortal Lord. His harvest from this journey to the northwest had gone far beyond his expectations.
As for the Origin Immortal Lord’s hopes… this had always been what Wang Chong intended to do, and he would have done it even without the Origin Immortal Lord’s request.
“Disasters are lined with blessings and blessings conceal disasters. This seed is extremely important, and while it can provide you certain benefits, it will also bring disadvantages. Countless people desired this seed in the past, and though I managed to defeat them and push them back, the matter was far from settled. Remember, you cannot let anyone know that you have obtained this seed, not even those closest to you!” the Origin Immortal Lord sternly warned.

Buzz!
Wang Chong’s mind trembled and his face paled. The Origin Immortal Lord had clearly conveyed that the golden seed was also a great burden. However, Wang Chong was soon able to get a grip on his emotions.
“Senior, be at ease! This junior understands. No matter what the consequences are, this junior can bear the burden. This junior will also never allow this seed to fall into the hands of those who harbor ill intentions!”
An innocent man hiding jade in his walls could still bring disaster down on his head. Wang Chong was well aware of the principle behind this saying. But regardless of wh
at sort of danger this seed brought, the evaluation of it by the Stone of Destiny alone meant that Wang Chong could not refuse it.
Moreover, Wang Chong had already been through many dangerous events, and any crown that was worth wearing was certain to be heavy. As long as this seed could assist him against the calamity, Wang Chong could not let it go!
The Origin Immortal Lord almost imperceptibly nodded.
“My mission is now complete, but your trials have only just begun. I cannot see your future, and to see you here is already my limit. Everything past this point about you is bursting with endless variables and chaos. I can only vaguely sense that in your life, you will encounter three mortal crises!”
“Senior!”
Wang Chong’s heart thumped as he suddenly raised his head, a solemn look in his eyes.
The Origin Immortal Lord was a master of divination and could predict the future, while Wang Chong only knew of the dangers the world faced because he had been reborn.
This was an ability that only the gods could possess.
If the Origin Immortal Lord had predicted that he would face three crises in his life, then it was probably true, and Wang Chong did not dare to be careless.
“I will take care of the first crisis for you, but when I’m gone, you will have to rely on yourself. Starting from now, you must remember every word I speak.”
The Origin Immortal Lord’s voice was faint and profound, like it was penetrating through the depths of spacetime to resound in Wang Chong’s ear.
“On the third lunar eclipse, you will encounter the greatest trial in your entire life and lose that which is most precious to you. You will also sense the greatest isolation… Remember, when the time comes, no matter what the situation is, you must endure, and watch out for a person dressed in red!”
Buzz!
Wang Chong’s mind was shaken, but the Origin Immortal Lord was already continuing.
“As for the last danger, it will come when light and shadow intersect. When that time comes, open up this silk bag that I give you. This will be the last thing I can help you with.”
There was a flash of light in front of Wang Chong, and then a silk bag from the Spring and Autumn Era appeared, carrying the symbol of a black Xuan Bird.
“Many thanks, Senior!”
Wang Chong lowered his head and respectfully took the silk bag. The Origin Immortal Lord was a mythical figure who had lived for a thousand years and could see the secrets of the heavens. Ordinary people could go their entire lives without encountering such a being.
To have him divine the secrets of the heavens was a unique opportunity that others didn’t even have a chance to beg for. Wang Chong did not dare to take his instructions lightly.
“In addition, be careful of those men in black wearing masks! They will be your greatest obstacle!” the Origin Immortal Lord said.
Bang!
Wang Chong shivered in shock, a completely different expression on his face as he raised his head.
“Senior knows those men in black?”
Wang Chong’s mind was reeling. Those mysterious men in black had troubled him for a very long time, and he knew neither their origins nor their goals.
But these people were determined to chase him down.
Even the Origin Immortal Palace hidden deep underground contained their traces.
Moreover, from what he had seen, the men in black were intricately connected to the Origin Immortal lineage. If there was one person who could answer his questions, it was the master of divination who had lived for more than one thousand years, the Origin Immortal Lord.
The Origin Immortal Lord had always given off an unfathomable and transcendent aura, as if nothing in the world could ever perturb him. But when Wang Chong mentioned the men in black, he saw a complicated flicker of emotion in his eyes that he had never seen before.
They really did have some sort of connection!
Wang Chong’s heart thumped. And the Origin Immortal Lord finally exposed a corner of the iceberg that was the men in black.
“I and they should never have existed in this world.”
The Origin Immortal Lord’s words set off an earthquake in Wang Chong’s mind, and his eyes flew open.
“Senior, you…!”
The Origin Immortal Lord seemed to have guessed what Wang Chong was asking and revealed the stunning truth. “Your guess is correct. I and they come from the same origin. At the very beginning, we were comrades!”
Bang!
Wang Chong could not suppress the tremors in his body nor the disbelief on his face. That most absurd conjecture had finally been verified. Wang Chong had scarcely imagined that the transcendent legend of the martial arts world had actually been a former comrade of the men in black who doggedly pursued him.
How could that be?!
Wang Chong struggled to control his emotions.
This was truly too surprising!
If not for the fact that the Origin Immortal lineage and the men in black were so hostile to each other, the men in black even killing many of the Origin Immortal lineage, Wang Chong would have just up and left.
“Just who are they? And also, why do those masked men want to chase me down? What do they want? Senior says that you both come from the same origin, so why are they here? It can’t be for only the Origin Immortal Art, right?” Wang Chong questioned, doing his best to suppress his shock.
Wang Chong had far too many questions to ask, and he hoped to obtain their answers from the Origin Immortal Lord.
“I should be telling you everything, but you are simply too weak. Knowing more might only hurt you to no benefit and will also produce countless variables in the future. I can only tell you that they have existed since far before recorded history, and the establishment of every new dynasty has their shadow behind it. What you might have to deal with in the future is not just the coming calamity, but those enemies hidden in the shadows. Protect the seed I have given you. In the future, it will be far more useful than you might imagine.”
Wang Chong was deeply dissatisfied by the Origin Immortal Lord’s recalcitrance. He had finally found someone who could answer his questions, so how could he just let the matter go?
After a few moments of silence, Wang Chong took out the black beast statue from his bosom.
“If Senior is not willing to say, then this junior will not force things, but this junior has one more question. What is that beast emblem on the Origin Immortal Formation? What is its connection to that calamity?”
The Origin Immortal Lord showed no reaction when Wang Chong took out the statue, but when Wang Chong asked what its connection to the calamity was, his body trembled in shock.
Wang Chong could clearly see a sliver of stupefaction in the Origin Immortal Lord’s eyes.
Wang Chong himself was stunned beyond compare.
The black beast emblem was one of the seven key symbols that had appeared on the Doomsday Altar, one of the core pieces that had eventually led to the death of the world. While the Origin Immortal Lord could remain silent about the other questions, Wang Chong needed an answer for this one.
Bang!
Just when the Origin Immortal Lord was about to open his mouth and tell Wang Chong about the apocalyptic symbol, bzzzzz! The earth began to shake and then an immense wave of Psychic Energy surged into the palace.
Wang Chong himself possessed immense Psychic Energy that had reached the tangible level, but this Psychic Energy was completely his equal. In certain aspects, it was tougher and more powerful, and… older!
“Haha, Origin Immortal Lord, you really are still alive!” A cruel and domineering voice, bursting with aggression and force, resounded through the hall.
Rumble! As Wang Chong stared in shock, the entire palace began to shake, even the dimension that it resided in.
Wang Chong glanced at the Origin Immortal Lord and immediately saw that the Origin Immortal Lord had paled.
“What should come has come!”
The Orig
in Immortal Lord turned grim.
……
“What is going on here?”
“What’s happened? Is it an earthquake?”
“Everyone, be careful!”
“Ah!”
Outside, the appearance of that immense energy had caused the entire core area to quake, and the various martial artists were uneasily looking at their surroundings with shock on their faces.
This place had a very complicated geography. Such a large shift in the earth had a chance of burying them all in this place.
While many martial artists wondered if this was an earthquake, Vice Lord Xie Guangting frowned. He looked toward the Origin Immortal Palace shrouded in the fog.
“Yuanyi, something is wrong!”
For some reason, after Wang Chong entered the Origin Immortal Palace, he had completely vanished, and no one even saw the gate of the palace open. No one knew what had happened or what Wang Chong had encountered, but it was true that this ‘earthquake’ had only happened after Wang Chong went inside.

“You also sensed it?”
Amidst the chaos, Song Yuanyi’s voice resounded in Xie Guangting’s mind.
“Do you remember the words of that leader of the three masked men?”
Buzz!
Xie Guangting paled at these words.
In the earlier battle, Wang Chong had used the inconceivable Power of Lightning to slay the three powerful leaders of the men in black in a single blow. But a few of the martial artists clearly recalled the dying words of the Tiger Immortal! This was far from over!
“Yuanyi, what do you mean?!”
Xie Guangting looked at Song Yuanyi, his expression turning solemn.
“I hope I’m wrong, but pass on my order. Tell everyone to get ready.”
Song Yuanyi had left a sentence unspoken. If the situation really was what he imagined it to be, this newcomer would be someone even more powerful and frightening than the Tiger Immortal. If this was the case, then they didn’t even have a chance to escape.
