”My mission is complete!” At this moment, the figure standing in front of Wang Chong spoke once more, the voice getting weaker and weaker.
Clangclangclang! The tens of thousands of swords in the air rapidly lost their golden luster, turning into ordinary iron as they plummeted into the abyss.
The shoulders of the first-generation successor sagged and his head dropped. Now that he had completed his mission, he was immediately rendered motionless, the last bit of energy scattering as the swords plunged.
Buzz!
Seeing that the mind of the first-generation successor which had persisted for one thousand years was about to disperse, Wang Chong immediately stepped forward and placed a palm on the successor's shoulder.
He instantly felt a cold and icy sensation at his fingers.
He immediately used the new skill he had obtained.
Activate Vitalizing Ember!
As this thought passed through Wang Chong's mind, a tiny violet flame emerged from his fingertip and entered the first-generation successor's body.
The successor's body remained like a motionless statue, but as the 'Vitalizing Ember' entered, a faint red hue appeared on his skin. Meanwhile, the ember traveled through his meridians and into his mind.
The ember floated in his mind, upon which the scattered consciousness of the successor suddenly began to congregate once more around the ember.
The Vitalizing Ember needed time to work, but as Wang Chong had already had his cultivation defect cured, he now had the ability to defend himself for long enough.
This underground world was rife with danger, and Wang Chong felt safer having a peerless expert like the first-generation successor around.
Buzz!
After doing this, Wang Chong walked past the successor toward the altar.
At the end of the stone bridge, he had already noticed several objects placed on the altar, and he could now confirm that he hadn't been seeing things.
One of these objects was an extremely ancient wooden box, and the other was a golden gourd around six inches high, meant for holding pills.
The gourd was exquisitely built, and the medicinal energy that had seeped into it caused Wang Chong to smell its musky fragrance from afar.
”The Origin Immortal Elixir!”
Wang Chong glanced over and recognized the ancient script on the gourd.
Wang Chong immediately waved a hand, taking up the gourd and box. Ignoring the gourd with the Origin Immortal Elixir, he instead opened the red wooden box.
A small booklet had been placed in the box.
'Formation Divine Treatise'!
Wang Chong was delighted to see these words on the cover. He had found the item that the Formation Elder had asked him to find.
Wang Chong took up the Formation Divine Treatise and looked to see what was under it.
Wang Chong had believed that the martial art that the entire martial arts world longed for, the Origin Immortal Art, would be under the divine treatise, but after removing the Formation Divine Treatise, Wang Chong was struck dumb. There was nothing else in the box. It had only contained the Formation Divine Treatise.
”What's going on here?”
Wang Chong was baffled.
”Is the Origin Immortal Art not here?”
He had always believed that the Origin Immortal Art would be on the altar. After all, logically speaking, the first-generation successor was the last guardian, so the Origin Immortal Art should have been here. Was the situation not as he imagined? Was this not the last trial?
Countless thoughts ran through Wang Chong's mind.
But at this moment, an extremely cold voice called out from behind him.
”King of Foreign Lands, give the Origin Immortal Sword and wooden box to me!”
The shout was brimming with killing intent, and the temperature in the region plunged to frigid levels.
At the same time, cling! The cold-faced Bagushidu stepped onto the chains, and as his black robe flew around him, he began to charge forward like a lightning bolt.
