Chapter 1540: Who Is That Person?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The sighs in the Summer Immortal Palace echoed in the lonely pa.s.sage of time.

Only the little b.u.t.terfly could hear it.

However, at that moment, she didn’t understand the meaning behind this sigh.

She was still fixated on her master, wondering why she always called her stupid and why she would help the person she despised.

She didn’t notice that there was a hint of determination in her master’s eyes.

Xu Qing also didn’t hear this sigh.

At that moment, in Nether Flame’s seclusion site, he stared at the dandelions floating in his sea of consciousness. After a few breaths of silence, he made up his mind.

“Eight Extremities…”

Xu Qing mumbled. His divine sense suddenly spread out and fused into those dandelions.

In an instant, Xu Qing’s mind roared, as if the primordial sound of creation exploded within his soul.

This sound shattered the fabric of time, creating a guiding force that led Xu Qing’s soul into the Profound Earth Immortal Source he had once visited.

It was an endless void filled with b.l.o.o.d.y flesh.

Above the minced flesh, what grew was still the huge dandelion.

Its stem was imprinted with countless runic marks, and every one of them emitted a terrifying and astonis.h.i.+ng might. When gathered together, these marks made the dandelion extraordinarily divine and unique.

The meat paste below that provided nutrients for it was made up of corpses of countless G.o.ds.

It provided eternal power to the dandelion.

The divine souls of these G.o.ds were also restricted here. They were forced to kneel and scream. Their divine sounds could better promote the operation of the dandelion.

This was the land of Immortal Source.

It was the Immortal Source created by the nine Summer Immortals, formed by burying a divine world!

Even though he had been here once before and this was his second time here, his heart still stirred as he set his eyes on the dandelion.

It was blooming, emitting countless furry seeds that continued to drift further and further away.

At the same time, some seeds were returning from the void, integrating into the dandelion, being absorbed, transformed, and then dispersing once again.

It formed a cycle.

Xu Qing’s divine sense fused into them at the next instant.

There, his countless divine thoughts exploded outward, splitting into hundreds of thousands, millions, and even tens of millions of threads, following all the seeds, covering the void, the starry sky, and all the inheritances.

Countless Dao arts appeared before his eyes, and innumerable blurred figures emerged in his perception.

They were practicing and cultivating.

Time seemed to have lost its effect here and s.p.a.ce also lost its mark.

The only thing that existed was the endless inheritance records.

It was like a vast library.

After staring at these and sensing everything, Xu Qing silently chanted the words ‘Eight Extremities’ in his soul.

Almost at the instant this divine sense was transmitted, the endless inheritances in the Immortal Source Land suddenly blurred. Only three seeds slowly appeared at an extremely deep location.

“This is the inheritance scene of three of the Eight Extremities Dao.”

“Your time is only enough to comprehend two.”

“I can’t help you with your choice.”

The moment Xu Qing looked at the three seeds, the ancient voice of the Summer Immortal Palace’s Palace Master echoed in the Immortal Source.

Xu Qing fell silent and his gaze landed.

In the first seed sphere, he could vaguely see a figure meditating and comprehending.

In the second seed sphere, there were two figures staring at each other but their appearances were blurry.

As for the third seed sphere, there were three figures who seemed to be pa.s.sing down their inheritance.

He only had two chances.

Choices…

After Xu Qing swept his gaze across all of them, his gaze first locked onto the second seed sphere with a decisive expression.

The reason why he chose the second seed was because he could faintly sense that although the two figures in the sphere were blurry, they seemed to come from the same source.

“An avatar and the main body?”

Xu Qing fell into deep thought. With a step, he gushed his divine sense into the second dandelion seed.

At the next instant, the world rumbled.

A scene recorded in the history of the Profound Earth was reflected in Xu Qing’s eyes.

In the scene, there was an unfamiliar continent. In Xu Qing’s eyes, this continent couldn’t be compared to w.a.n.ggu but it had some distinct features of its own.

Underneath, many ferocious beasts were sealed.

It was as though these ferocious beasts were being used to become the driving force for the operation of this continent.

What drew Xu Qing’s attention the most was a particular palace on this continent.

The sky there seemed to be cut off from the surroundings and was independent.

Night and day were alternating!

When Xu Qing looked down, a soft cry rang out from the palace.

This sound wasn’t ordinary. It shattered the world, causing flickering runes to be born.

Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed. He could tell that those runes contained origin power.

“It’s a restriction.”

Xu Qing mumbled and his interest was piqued. He wanted to take a look at the cultivators in the palace but he was stopped.

What stopped him wasn’t the restriction but the power of the dandelion.

Xu Qing fell into deep thought. He understood that he was only a spectator and could only see the scene reflected in his eyes.

Just like that, time slowly pa.s.sed. More and more restriction runes appeared in the sky above the palace, but they showed signs of instability and began to dissipate.

At this moment, a heaven-shattering long cry rang out from the palace. Immediately after, five streams of light rushed into the palace.

Although Xu Qing’s vision was still blurry, the moment these five figures appeared, he immediately sensed… the power of the five elements contained in them.

“That’s metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.”

Xu Qing couldn’t take his eyes off them and continued to watch.

He saw the five lights in the sky each emitting the ultimate intent of the five elements. After that… the five lights fused into one and condensed into a true body of the five elements.

This true body stood between heaven and earth. With a deep breath, its body suddenly swelled up and transformed into a ten-thousand-foot-tall giant!

It began to stabilize the unstable restriction origin runes in the surroundings.

Under its action, the countless runes slowly calmed down. However, at this moment, a cruel roar rang out from the depths of the ground.

A malevolent soul body manifested along with the roar.

It was a round meatbail with only one huge eye on it, revealing cruelty and madness.

The moment he saw this beast, Xu Qing’s eyes flashed.

This beast looked very similar to Ming Fei.

What was most similar was the earth-shattering ferocity.

After it appeared, it stared fixedly at the true body of the five elements in the sky above the palace. A hint of greed flashed in its huge eye.

It then rushed over.

As it got closer, the roars became increasingly sharp.

However, the instant it got close, a calm voice echoed through the world.

“Freeze!”

As the word rang out, everything fell silent and motionless.

The illusory body of the ferocious soul that was charging over stopped moving and was frozen between heaven and earth. There was still cruelty in its eye but that cruelty was also frozen.

When Xu Qing saw this, a strange glint appeared in his eyes as he continued to observe.

After the evil soul froze, all the restriction origin runes in the surroundings rushed over crazily as though they had been hungry for countless years and had finally seen food.

They charged into the evil soul.

This evil soul trembled and its body emitted a dim light as it was devoured, started dissipating.

The cruelty in its eyes disappeared and was replaced by an illusory figure.

It took a step out of the eye and stood between the heavens and the earth. Its entire body contained majestic origin power of restrictions.

This scene caused Xu Qing’s heart to stir.

“Is this to mold the origin true body of restrictions? Using the true body of the five elements to lure the evil soul over and borrow its body as special nutrients to complete the molding!”

While Xu Qing was pondering, the molding continued.

In the alternating black and white sky, daylight transformed into the rising sun, becoming a stream of light that instantly merged into the evil soul’s body, which had been suspended there.

As the evil soul trembled, its body shrunk a little more, and a second figure walked out of its eye.

This figure’s entire body emitted a bright light like the sun. After it walked out of the eye, it stood beside the origin true body of the restriction.

After that, the remaining night swept up the darkness between heaven and earth and also fused into the body of the evil soul.

The evil soul trembled and its eye collapsed as a third origin true body walked out!

The instant this body appeared, extreme killing intent erupted from within.

It shook everything.

Xu Qing’s heart fluctuated intensely as he stared at the third origin body.

At the next instant, the true body of the five elements also absorbed the power of the evil soul.

Xu Qing immediately realized what was happening.

“After the soul is torn apart, there is an innate desire for it to become whole again. This instinct transforms into a force of attraction. The fiercer the soul, the stronger this instinctive pull becomes. Using this instinct as a medium, all true bodies can merge through this bridge!”

At the same time that Xu Qing sensed all of this, a black bolt of lightning suddenly rose from the palace.

Accompanying it was a cold voice.

“Return to One!”

Almost at the instant the voice rang out, a huge divine sense rumbled out, enveloping the world.

All bodies became one!

It formed a black-haired fiendish body!

An extreme aura spread out from his body. It was the origin power of slaughter that wanted to destroy all living beings and destroy the world!

“From now on, you will act as the instrument of punishment, spreading the will of destruction and slaying malevolent souls!

You shall be named Slaughter and your Dao name is Punishment!”

A mighty voice rang out from the palace.

At the same time, the scene ended.

The world directly collapsed in front of Xu Qing. His divine sense also returned to the Immortal Source the moment the world was destroyed.

The second dandelion seed in front of him dissipated.

“This is a precious record of the Eight Extremities Dao, the fusion and unity.”

“Whether you can grasp it will depend on your luck.”

The voice of the Palace Master of the Summer Immortal Palace echoed in the Immortal Source.

Xu Qing fell silent as the scenes he had seen earlier surfaced in his mind. After a long time, he suddenly spoke.

“Senior, that person… who is he?”

The Palace Master didn’t answer Xu Qing’s question immediately. She fell silent for a while before speaking in a low voice.

“Perhaps, you can meet him in the pa.s.sage of time.”

“You guys are the same type of people.”

Xu Qing’s gaze landed on the location where the second dandelion had dissipated earlier. A long time later, he looked at the first dandelion seed and his divine sense surged in.

At the next instant, an even more ancient scene appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes.

On the scene was a dignified-looking middle-aged cultivator. He wore an imperial robe and looked like the ancestor of a race. He was wors.h.i.+ped by countless clansmen and was called the Immortal Ancestor.

At this moment, he was kneeling in front of a fragment of a stone, which was engraved with a blurred totem.

The totem depicted a crystal shattered into ten pieces. Among these pieces, five contained elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth; one contained s.p.a.ce, one contained time, and the remaining three pieces were unknown.

Surrounding the crystal were infants and stars, seemingly representing the creation of the world.

As the Immortal Ancestor wors.h.i.+ped the stone, he seemed to have comprehended some cultivation art from the shattered crystal fragments.

After that, the totem completely blurred and ceased to exist.

When Xu Qing saw all of this, an even greater commotion stirred in his heart. He didn’t know if that Immortal Ancestor realized it but when he stared at it just now, he seemed to have seen the birth of a star ring.

As for the power contained in the crystal that had shattered into ten pieces, it was clearly… the Eight Extremities Dao.

“The source…”

Xu Qing mumbled.

He returned to the Immortal Source.

He fell silent for a long time and closed his eyes. His divine sense spread out and he began to a.n.a.lyze and comprehend everything he had seen on this trip.

Time flowed by.

It was unknown how many years had pa.s.sed in this land of the dandelion.

It felt like a thousand years had pa.s.sed, but in reality, it was only 30 breaths of time.

“It’s time.”

The voice of the Summer Immortal Palace’s Palace Master rang out.

Xu Qing opened his eyes.

There were five elements in his eyes.

He stood up and bowed..
