Chapter 752 - 752 A Storm Is Coming (2)
752 A Storm Is Coming (2)
As he spoke, he flipped his palm and took out two balls of light left behind by the Supreme God of Man. He said extremely sincerely, “Immortal Master, I have no way to repay your kindness. I’m willing to offer the power left behind by these two balls of light to you as a token of my sincerity.” These two balls of light were intertwined with endless power and contained the source of life and the ultimate mysteries of this world. They were treasures that anyone dreamed of.
Even to Cui Heng, it was extremely useful.
However, Cui Heng shook his head and said indifferently, “I only gave you the Heaven and Earth Fist Scripture casually back then. I can’t afford such a heavy thank-you gift.”
“This…” Zhou Xuan did not expect his gift of the power left behind by the Supreme God of Man to be rejected. On second thought, he said, “Then can Immortal Master let me stay by your side to cultivate?
At the same time, these two balls of light left behind by the Supreme God of Man can be temporarily placed in your Dao Hall. You can comprehend them at will. Consider it my payment for taking refuge with you, Immortal Master. How about that?”
“Refuge?” Cui Heng laughed when he heard that.
He understood what Zhou Xuan meant. He was saying that because he had two portions of the power left behind by the Supreme God of Man, he would definitely be targeted or even besieged by the Immortal Ancestors. Therefore, asking to cultivate by his side could be considered a form of refuge.
However, in reality, Cui Heng had long become enemies with the Immortal Ancestors. It was actually more dangerous to stay by his side. It was more likely that he would be besieged by the Immortal Ancestors.
The reason why Zhou Xuan said this was because he wanted to thank Cui Heng for his kindness.
Since he had already said this, Cui Heng did not refuse. He nodded slightly and said, “Forget it, cultivate by my side in the future.”
“Thank you, Immortal Master!” Zhou Xuan was overjoyed when he heard this. He knelt on the ground again and raised his hands high, handing the two balls of divine gifts to Cui Heng. “Please keep them for the time being.”
“Alright.” Cui Heng nodded and spread out his sleeve, putting away the two balls of divine power.
At this moment, the River of Time suddenly stirred up waves. A group of Heaven Earth Saints and five Immortal Ancestors also chased after him to this time point.
An extremely terrifying power erupted in the void, causing the Primordial World at this time to tremble violently. Countless living beings panicked and felt that the Great Chaos Calamity had arrived in advance.
When they arrived, they happened to see Cui Heng putting the two balls of divine power into his sleeve.
The expressions of the five Immortal Ancestors immediately became extremely ugly.
Especially when they saw Zhou Xuan, who had already reached the Immortal Ancestor realm, they were even more furious.
The Heaven Earth Saints were overjoyed. To them, as long as the Immortal Ancestors could not take back the legacy of the Supreme God of Man, it was a great thing.
Cui Heng sensed the terrifying fluctuations of power that filled the world. His gaze landed on the five Immortal Ancestors and he said indifferently, “At this point, why don’t you stop? Do you really want the Primordial World to be destroyed from this time point?”
This was not an exaggeration.
The Primordial World was naturally very stable and its essence was extremely high.
However, its foundation had long been damaged. When the Supreme God of Man joined forces with all sides to expel the two Supreme Gods of Heaven and Earth, the source of the Primordial World had suffered a huge blow.
Moreover, after the Supreme Gods of Heaven and Earth transformed into the endless universe of the Chaos Sea, it completely enveloped the Primordial World, restricting its development and expansion.
This caused the Primordial World to not recover for countless years.
Coupled with the disasters caused by the 19 Chaos Calamities, even the originally vast continent was split into nine pieces.
At this time, the Primordial World was already quite dilapidated.
If so many Immortal Ancestor-level experts and a Late-stage Return to Void cultivator like Cui Heng erupted into battle at this moment, it was very likely that they would really shatter the Primordial World.
Cui Heng’s words made the faces of the five Immortal Ancestors turn ashen, but they were helpless.
After a moment of silence, the five Immortal Ancestors could only snort coldly. Then, they transformed into streams of light and left, disappearing without a trace.
The group of Heaven Earth Saints bowed to Cui Heng to express their gratitude. This battle was a huge victory for them.
After all, an Immortal Ancestor had died!
At this moment, a Heaven Earth Saint walked forward and cupped his hands at Cui Heng. “I’m Yuan Ming. Greetings, Dao Brother Cui.”
Cui Heng cupped his hands and returned the greeting. He smiled and said, “Dao Brother Yuan.”
“Previously, at the meeting in the Chaos Heaven Assembly, I heard Wei Jiu talk about Dao Brother’s deeds.” Yuan Ming smiled and said, “Now that the storm has calmed down, I wonder if I’m lucky enough to visit Dao Brother’s Dao Hall?”
“Alright.” Cui Heng nodded slightly and said, “Dao Brother, if you’re willing to come, you can come at any time. I happen to have something to ask you.”
“Then it’s a deal.” Yuan Ming laughed.
… .
In this time point, as the battle between Cui Heng, the Heaven Earth Saints, and the Immortal Ancestors ended, everything returned to its previous state.
The living beings who had died in the battle between the three sides were all revived by the group of experts, changing the fact that they were dead.
This was not a resurrection.
That was because in the current timeline, they had never died.
Cui Heng also returned to the Immortal Land of the Silver Disc Star Sea.
He chose an overseas island here and built a simple and ancient Daoist temple as his Dao Hall. He named it “Pure Yang Palace”.
This did not have any special meaning. It was purely to commemorate his experience playing a large-scale martial arts online game on Earth.
However, the people in this land did not know the origins of Pure Yang Palace. Many people thought that this must contain some kind of profound truth that pointed to the ultimate mystery of the end of cultivation.
Even Juntian, who was beside Cui Heng, thought so.
Therefore, after the establishment of Pure Yang Palace, what he often did was to visualize the words “Pure Yang” written on the Daoist temple plaque, trying to comprehend some mysterious principles from it.
Zhou Xuan also checked into Pure Yang Palace and stayed in a wing of the Daoist temple.
He clearly possessed a deep sense of danger. After obtaining a stable environment to grow, he began to travel in time without stopping, wanting to truly possess the strength of an Immortal Ancestor as soon as possible.
However, before that, Zhou Xuan still chatted with Cui Heng about some things.
He told Cui Heng about his experiences over the years, as well as his relationship with the Immortal Ancestors of the Primordial World and the Heaven Earth Saints of the Chaos Sea. Not long after Zhou Xuan entered seclusion to cultivate, Yuan Ming sent Venerable Master Jiu to Pure Yang Palace to send a visitation card, saying that he would visit Cui Heng before a hundred years.
At this time period, both the Primordial World and the Boundless Chaos Sea had entered a very calm state. Even the River of Time had become calm.
However, everyone knew that this was only the calm before the storm.
A storm was brewing.
… .
Cui Heng sat on a meditation cushion in the Pure Yang Palace Hall. His eyes were slightly closed as he sat cross-legged. Beside him floated two bright balls of light.
It was the power left behind by the Supreme God of Man.
Now, he planned to investigate these two light balls in all aspects and strive to understand more about this secret information, so that he could achieve omnipotence.
After completing his investigation of the two light balls, Cui Heng planned to do something else.
This time, he’d successfully descended to the time when he was still in the Beginner’s Space, giving him a thought of occupying that timeline.
If he could really successfully occupy that period of time, Cui Heng could resolve a question he had always had.
Where did Jiang Qiqi go?
At that time, he should be able to get an answer.
