Chapter 486: 486, [The Man Wins the Heavens]
The words of the Master exploded like thunder in Lu Xun’s ears.
“Look upon the skeptical eyes of others as ghostly flames, and boldly walk your night path!”
Indeed, he had the entire Demon Sect as his support, protected by the Master and his senior brothers and sisters. Why shouldn’t he simplify his thinking and act more boldly?
If he believed something was right, he should just do it, without considering unnecessary things!
He had too many secrets, so he was used to hiding his actions. Now he realized that there was no need for this.
Lu Xun bowed deeply to his Master, who was flying higher and higher, and said aloud, “Disciple will bear Master’s teachings in mind!”
The Master waved his white sleeve and said to Lu Xun, “Little Five, close your eyes and calm your mind.”
Lu Xun knew that the Master was about to extract some of the Primordial Power.
He closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and then felt a surge of energy flowing into his body, heading directly towards the most mysterious Qi Sea.
“So the Primordial Power is hidden deep within the Qi Sea, no wonder I couldn’t sense it.”
This warm energy flow seemed to have pinpointed the Primordial Power very quickly. Yet, Lu Xun’s body did not react at all, as if the Primordial Power was not part of his body.
Then, a system alert sounded in his ear.
“Ding! You have triggered the task: Assist the Master to acquire the Primordial Power, do you want to accept?”
With a thought, Lu Xun chose to accept the task.
The system prompt continued to sound in his ear:
“You will lose 1 Special Attribute Point: Primordial Power, do you wish to continue?”
With another thought, Lu Xun chose to Continue.
“Extraction is in progress, current progress: 2%.”
Although the system hinted at the ongoing extraction, Lu Xun felt nothing at all.
It’s natural for a person to be sensitive when something exits their body. That sensitivity becomes more intense when a piece of that something comes out.
However, the Primordial Power seemed different; it was like an elusive presence.
Time passed by the minute and the second. The duration wasn’t that long, approximately the time it took for a stick of incense to burn.
Then, another alert sounded in his ear:
“Ding! Extraction successful!”
“You will receive task compensation, do you wish to claim?”
Without a second thought, Lu Xun chose to claim.
In his mind, he thought: “According to the Master, the Primordial Power is roughly equivalent to the Power of Heavenly Path; therefore, the task reward will definitely not disappoint.”
“The likelihood of an equal exchange is slim, but the reward is surely generous.”
Shortly after, the system provided the reward response.
“Ding! You have acquired 1 Swordsmanship Aptitude point and 2 billion Experience Points as a reward.”
“What!?” Lu Xun exclaimed in shock.
He had anticipated a generous reward, but he never expected it to be this extravagant!
But upon careful consideration, if the Primordial Power is truly regarded as an attribute on par with the Power of Heavenly Path, then this reward is not exaggerated at all.
After all, these are powers of different levels. Their ranks are completely different.
“Ding! The amount of your stored Experience Points has exceeded the capacity. The system is automatically upgrading you.”
Lu Xun knew that the maximum storage capacity for Experience Points in the character panel was 500 million points; anything more couldn’t be stored.
This number was written in the panel and marked as the maximum capacity. In his past life, no player could store 500 million Experience Points-that would be ridiculous.
This meant that at this moment, Lu Xun was about to spend nearly 1.6 billion Experience Points all at once!
Because the character panel already held nearly 100 million Experience Points!
A terrifying Spiritual Energy Vortex formed instantly, then rushed furiously towards Lu Xun.
At this moment, the world changed color.
The spiritual energy within the Demon Sect was exhausted in an instant, after which, the Spiritual Energy Vortex continued to spread outwards!
Looking down at this scene, the Master smiled faintly and said, “Little Five, the journey ahead is for you to walk.”
He looked up at the hole in the sky and said, “If you think you can hold me with just an illusion, you underestimate me.”
On the contrary, all of this was within the Master’s predictions. He had calculated that this scene would happen.
And at the moment the illusion was created, he finally discerned where this power came from, as if locating the Foreign Race Spirits!
Since he had found them, of course, he would not just wait around.
A pearl appeared in the palm of the Master, which was the Primordial Power he had just extracted from Lu Xun’s body.
With a gentle squeeze of his palm, the Master crushed the pearl. Then, his figure disappeared from the Heavenly Dust Continent and merged into the rift in the dome of the sky.
This man, who liked to wear white robes, walked with small steps, unconsciously cocked his orchid finger, and lived for who knows how many years, left this world for the first time.
As for the supposed ‘deity’, anytime the Master heard this name, he felt nauseated and wanted to straighten things out with it.
There were no cultivators in the Heavenly Dust Continent, only practitioners.
Therefore, there were no immortals here, only humans.
—— The Man Wins the Heavens.
…
…
Such a gigantic event happened without many people knowing.
Most people didn’t know that the strongest being of the Heavenly Dust Continent had quietly left, heading somewhere isolated, to face a deity directly.
As for what was to happen next, everyone in the Heavenly Dust Continent, including Lu Xun, had no idea.
But at that moment, an anomaly had already occurred.
The fissure in the sky above began to twist violently.
A terrifying power began to emerge from the fissure, and it even started to spread outwards.
At this moment, Lu Xun was floating in the sky, within the surging Spiritual Energy Vortex. He was completely oblivious to the events unfolding around him.
As for the Great Sacrificial Rite outside the Eastern Region, he was unsure whether to advance or retreat for a moment.
He decided to ask for the Supreme Lord’s opinion.
The pendant on the wrist of the Great Sacrificial Rite flickered slightly, and a split form of the Supreme Lord appeared.
Although these split forms didn’t possess much spiritual wisdom, they could be used to communicate with the Supreme Lord over long distances.
But after performing the secret technique, he suddenly found that the Supreme Lord seemed even more anxious and worried than him.
The voice of the Supreme Lord, whose gender was difficult to determine from their neutral tone, resonated from the mouth of the split form:
“Great Sacrificial Rite, what exactly happened in the Demon Sect? What did the Master do!”
The Great Sacrificial Rite didn’t expect the Supreme Lord to be so agitated.
The Supreme Lord of the Foreign Race is equivalent to being the Divine Envoy of the Foreign Race Spirits.
He has a spiritual connection with the Spirits, to put it bluntly; he possesses the ability to “Reach the Heaven’s Hearing.”
And just now, this spiritual connection…
—-it was severed!
