“Ah!”
“How could this be?! Is the Origin Immortal Lord still no match for him?!”
The martial artists instantly panicked. For this unsettled crowd, True Lord Yellow Dragon’s voice had a nightmarish tone to it, and they would not find the description of ‘monster’ for him to be an exaggeration.
But True Lord Yellow Dragon’s voice resounded for only a few monts before an even more powerful energy quashed it. The earth once more cald back down.
Wang Chong couldn’t see what was happening down below, but the ‘aftershocks’ alone left him flabbergasted.
“Senior, what’s your condition?” Wang Chong asked in concern.
“I’m fine. His resistance is extrely fierce, but I’ve prepared these formations for a thousand years for this very mont. Although I can’t seal him here forever, it should be for long enough.”
The Origin Immortal Lord’s voice ca in bits and pieces, but his words still managed to soothe Wang Chong’s mind.
“Back up a little. I will now help you get out of this place!”
Wang Chong had barely taken a few steps back when a boundless stream of destructive energy exploded out of the fissure.
Boom! Crack! The rock wall near the crowd suddenly collapsed in a great shower of stones.
The easily-frightened crowd instantly scattered upon witnessing this sudden attack.
“Look! What’s that?!” soone shouted.
“Not good! There’s a crack in the rock wall! Is this place going to collapse?!”
The martial artists were all panicked and fearful. This place was at least twenty thousand ters beneath the earth. If it suddenly collapsed, they would all be buried here and would only have death awaiting them.
“Wang Chong, what’s going on here?!”
Song Yuanyi strode over to Wang Chong’s side. While everyone else was in disarray, only Wang Chong continued to stand at his original spot, apparently extrely calm.
Moreover, the wall had cracked open far too abruptly. If there was one person who knew the truth of it all, it was probably Wang Chong.
Wang Chong had entered the Origin Immortal Palace, and he was the only one to have any connection with the Origin Immortal Lord.
“Everyone, don’t panic. This is a passage the Origin Immortal Lord opened for us. True Lord Yellow Dragon might co out at any ti, so we need to use this crack to return to the surface as quickly as possible.”
Wang Chong’s voice resounded through the pit, and the panicked crowd instantly cald back down.
“Lord Marquis saved us, so we’ll listen to your orders!”
The martial artists began to call out, their eyes gleaming with respect.
“This place won’t last long and might collapse at any ti.” Wang Chong suddenly turned to Song Yuanyi and asked, “Alliance Lord Song, please lead everyone out of here!”
Song Yuanyi rely gave Wang Chong a profound glance before turning back around.
“Guangting, Black Yin Ancestor, you lead the way. Bone Devil, the Demonic Emperor, and I will hold the rear.”
Under Song Yuanyi’s command, the group began to make their way past the rocks and bones, entering that pitch-black crack which was thirty-so ters tall and around five ters wide.
Song Yuanyi’s built-up prestige in the martial arts world ensured that the group departed in an orderly fashion, and it took only a few monts before they were all gone.
Once everyone was gone, the Demonic Emperor Old Man and Wushang Village Chief turned to look at the motionless Wang Chong and called out, “Chong-er, we’ll wait for you! Co as soon as you can!”
Seeing Wang Chong nod, the two of them entered the crack without hesitation.
Bang!
Not long after they left, a massive boulder ca from above and smashed into the ground not far from Wang Chong’s feet.
As more ti passed, the surrounding rocks began to tremble, and more and more rocks and dust ca down.
Buzz!
Wang Chong’s eyes flashed. Suddenly, the bones and rocks vanished, and Wang Chong erged in a vast white world.
Fog perated the place, and Wang Chong could see two straight chains in front of him that stretched to the other side. There, a familiar figure was silently watching him. He had apparently been waiting for so ti.
Origin Immortal Lord!
Wang Chong instantly recognized the elder.
This place was very similar to the white world he had traversed before entering the Origin Immortal Palace, but Wang Chong was aware that all of this rely an illusion.
The Origin Immortal Lord had pulled his mind into this place.
“Senior!”
Wang Chong began to walk over to the Origin Immortal Lord.
The Origin Immortal Lord who had appeared before him was dressed in a simple Daoist robe, and his face was ruddy and energetic. He appeared better than he had at any ti before, but this only made Wang Chong uneasy.
Through his Psychic Energy, he could sense a deep-rooted weakness in the Origin Immortal Lord’s body.
A soul echo!
A thought occurred to Wang Chong, but he did not dare to continue thinking about it.
“The ti for us to part has co!”
The Origin Immortal Lord gently smiled at Wang Chong. A gentle breeze blew past, caressing his hair and adding to his aura of otherworldly transcendence.
“I have finished my mission. This world will have to rely on you now.”
“Senior, can you really not suppress him? Can you not leave with us?” Wang Chong asked.
The Origin Immortal Lord shook his head.
“You know the answer!”
Wang Chong instantly fell silent.
“I have one more important thing to tell you that you must rember. Once you leave, in the part of the year when the scents of autumn are the strongest, you can go and find soone. He will help you in my place, but he will only appear on one day every year. You must display utmost respect to him, and he will answer many of the questions on your mind. There are so questions he can answer that even I cannot. He will tell you the truth that you so ardently wish to know!”
The Origin Immortal Lord smiled.
“The truth?”
Wang Chong’s heart thumped as he raised his head, but what welcod him was a rapidly approaching palm.
Before Wang Chong could react, the Origin Immortal Lord had placed his palm on Wang Chong’s shoulder.
“Senior, you...!”
The world began to spin around Wang Chong, and before he knew it, he had been forced out of the vast whiteness of the Origin Immortal Lord’s ntal world.
On his last glance, Wang Chong saw the Origin Immortal Lord’s gaze, bursting with hope and expectation.
Bang!
When his vision returned, Wang Chong realized that he had been pushed out of the abyss and into the pitch-black crack.
Rumble! A mont later, a large chunk of rock and tal ore ca down from the ceiling, closing off the crack that the Origin Immortal Lord had just made.
“Wang Chong, rember! You must find that man no matter what. I’m giving this to you, but rember, you can’t open it until the ti has co.”
The Origin Immortal Lord’s voice ca from deep underground. Wang Chong lowered his head and saw that there was a small wooden box in his hand. It appeared very unremarkable, but it felt heavy in his hand.
Wang Chong didn’t think too much before putting the box away. anwhile, the Origin Immortal Lord’s voice was getting weaker and more distant.
“Yellow Dragon, my ti has co. It’s ti for us to settle our accounts.”
There was one last shout, like a distant peal of thunder, and then silence. Wang Chong could sense his energy no more.
Wang Chong stood in front of the now-closed crack, a complicated expression in his eyes. He didn’t know what would happen to the Origin Immortal Lord, but there was no doubt that this was their last eting.
“Senior, my utmost gratitude. This junior will forever rember your gifts. I hope that I can accomplish both your and my mission!”
Wang Chong slowly bowed in the Origin Immortal Lord’s direction, then stood back up, took a deep breath, and began to leave.
The passage was dark, but it was much wider than he had imagined. Looking around, Wang Chong saw that the rocks had a tallic luster to them. It seed like the Origin Immortal Lord’s strike had even blasted through the ore vein.
Whoosh!
The earth trembled and a shower of rocks and dust ca from the ceiling. Wang Chong didn’t know how long this passage went, but there was no other path available to him.
At this mont, he heard a familiar voice from up ahead. “Young Patriarch! Over here!”
“Chief!”
Wang Chong looked over in surprise and saw the Origin Immortal Chief standing there.
“Why are you here? Didn’t I have you leave with the others?”
“I was here waiting for Young Patriarch.”
The Origin Immortal Chief shook her head and gently smiled.
“This place is dangerous and might collapse at any ti. That Righteous Alliance Lord called Song Yuanyi has already led the rest of them out. I remained to receive the young patriarch. Let’s go!”
The Origin Immortal Chief pointed in a direction, and Wang Chong nodded, grabbing the Origin Immortal Chief and then charging forward.
