Immortal Starry Sky

Suddenly!

All at once, Wang Xu's view changed.

It was still the same scene, but Wang Xu felt it wasn't the original scene he had seen.

"Master..."

At this moment, Wang Xu realized that the Divine Master in green by his side had disappeared without a trace.

The singing and dancing around him had not stopped; a few enchanting dancers with celestial beauty approached Wang Xu, dancing around him.

The originally delightful dance became extremely alluring at this moment.

Wang Xu inexplicably felt a dry mouth and parched throat.

As he looked at the dancers, an intense desire surged within him — the most primal desire, with the flames in Wang Xu's heart growing fiercer.

"Is this enchantment?"

Wang Xu wanted to use his spiritual consciousness to expel this desire from his heart, only to suddenly realize he had no spiritual consciousness!

Shaking his head vigorously, Wang Xu lightly bit his tongue, letting the bloody taste stimulate his nerves to regain some clarity.

But it wasn't enough.

The dancers were already close to Wang Xu, their soft, pale hands caressing his chest, brushing against his arm with their bosoms, eyes teasing, expressions enchanting, and the desire in Wang Xu's heart soared!

"Go away!"

Wang Xu wanted to push the dancers away, but found himself powerless, unable to muster any strength.

He could only watch helplessly as the dancers ran their hands over him without any means of resisting.

"Quiet!"

Wang Xu closed his eyes, trying hard to calm his heart.

But even with his eyes closed, the sensations on his skin inspired endless fantasies in his mind, disturbing his peace, and keeping him from truly calming down.

"You Ji, come out to me!"

With no other option, Wang Xu could only call for You Ji in his heart.

However, You Ji did not respond at all.

Wang Xu called several more times, but You Ji seemed nonexistent and did not react in any way.

"I cannot let my mind waver here!"

Unable to rely on external forces, Wang Xu had to depend on himself.

He began trying not to think, letting his mind go blank, forgetting the existence of his physical body.

Bit by bit, Wang Xu battled against the desire in his heart.

The desire continually attempted to burst forth, while Wang Xu strove to suppress it back into his heart.

Back and forth, Wang Xu noticed this desire beginning to falter.

Seizing the opportunity, Wang Xu completely discarded everything from the outside, entering a state of transcendence, where everything happening to his body had nothing to do with him.

He did not know how much time passed.

Wang Xu's will remained floating, and his mind became increasingly tranquil.

"Wake up."

Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed in Wang Xu's ear.

Wang Xu's consciousness returned, and he opened his eyes to find the same songs and dances around him, while the Divine Master in green, who had disappeared before, was now sitting calmly in front of Wang Xu, as if he had never left.

"This was a test of your heart."

The Divine Master in green personally poured a cup of wine for Wang Xu, smiling as he said, "Though talented, I, Qing Sibai, absolutely do not take in those with weak wills who cannot withstand temptation. What you just faced was a small test, which you passed."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xu's expression relaxed a little, and he retracted the Thunder God Universe Light Saber already in his hand.

When caught in that situation just now, Wang Xu believed he had entered an illusion array, and the first thing he did upon realizing it was to take out the Thunder God Universe Light Saber.

"Wait, give me your weapon."

The Divine Master in green suddenly spoke, and though Wang Xu did not know why he wanted his weapon, he took out the Thunder God Universe Light Saber again and handed it to the Divine Master in green.

Crash!

In the hands of the Divine Master in green, the Thunder God Universe Light Saber suddenly emitted a strong primordial qi fluctuation and a blaze of intense light.

"A Top-Grade Mystical Heavenly Yuan Weapon."

The light faded, and the Thunder God Universe Light Saber was surrounded by a white glow in the hands of the Divine Master in green.

However, the Divine Master in green snapped his fingers, and the blade of the Thunder God Universe Light Saber broke in two!

Wang Xu furrowed his brow.

The white glow of the Thunder God Universe Light Saber completely dissipated, and its primordial qi fluctuations all but vanished, leaving it utterly wrecked.

"Wang Xu, from now on, do not rely on weapons again."

The Divine Master in green looked seriously at Wang Xu, whose stern gaze sent a chill through Wang Xu's heart, "For a Celestial God, weapons are, after all, just external forces. If one day, your weapon breaks and can no longer exert its original power, your strength will be greatly diminished, putting you in a passive position."

"In combat, battles change in the blink of an eye, and external forces are not the right path; you should confront your most fundamental power and tap into yourself!"

"Master, what is the most fundamental power?"

Wang Xu earnestly inquired.

Weapons are external forces, this Wang Xu naturally knew.

However, such external forces could double Wang Xu's strength, moreover, he had been using a long knife from the very beginning, never changing; the knife had entirely become a part of his body.

But, the Blue-Clothed Divine Master was absolutely not a reckless person. Breaking the Thunder God Universe Light Saber and revealing the most fundamental power might involve domains he had never explored before!

"The most fundamental power is your physical body."

The Blue-Clothed Divine Master's gaze flickered, "Attack, dodge, speed, defense... everything must be built upon the physical body. The body is the most fundamental power and also the most sacred power!"

"Master, my body has always been in cultivation, never interrupted, but my body has reached a bottleneck. Moving forward is extremely difficult, and only by using weapons can my strength be enhanced."

Wang Xu said truthfully.

He was at the Initial Celestial God Realm, and his body was also at the Initial Celestial God Realm. At the stage of the Celestial God Realm, the body no longer easily improves as before, and it becomes extremely challenging.

"No, you haven't reached your bottleneck, not even one ten-thousandth."

The Blue-Clothed Divine Master shook his head, then with a wave of his hand, the fine wine and delicacies on the table disappeared, and a plain iron box appeared in front of Wang Xu.

"Can you feel it? This was recast into a 'God-Trapping Cage' after being melted down from a Divine Treasure Weapon."

Wang Xu was startled, his gaze fixed on this seemingly ordinary iron box, and he couldn't feel any trace of divine aura.

"You must remember one thing."

The Blue-Clothed Divine Master said seriously, "Whether it is Primordial Power treasures, Xuan Tian Primordial Weapons, or Divine Treasures, all are crafted by super experts!"

"The super experts use various materials from chaos, merge spirituality, and forge them into pieces of weapons, armors, to enhance the martial artist's power... But no matter how they are forged, these treasures are ultimately human creations, incomparable to what is created by chaos."

"What is created by chaos?"

Wang Xu was puzzled.

The Blue-Clothed Divine Master smiled, pointing at Wang Xu, "You are what is created by chaos."

Humans, born from chaos, die by chaos.

This is the purest creation of chaos.

"Clang!"

The Blue-Clothed Divine Master opened the iron box, inside there was no dazzling golden light, nor world-shocking strange phenomena, but there was an impulse that almost made Wang Xu want to bow in worship!

Life Suppression!

The item inside this iron box possesses an extremely high life level!

The Blue-Clothed Divine Master noticed Wang Xu's strong resistance to the pain, immediately making several hand seals, greatly weakening this life suppression.

"Master, what is stored in this iron box?"

Wang Xu couldn't help but ask.

The Blue-Clothed Divine Master smiled mysteriously, his hand slowly reached into the iron box, Wang Xu's gaze followed closely.

When the Blue-Clothed Divine Master took this item out, Wang Xu's gaze suddenly froze!

A hand.

A pale, bloodless severed hand!

"This..."

The shock in Wang Xu's heart was imaginable.

The terrifying life suppression just released, almost making Wang Xu difficult to breathe, was actually from a severed hand?

"Are you very surprised?"

The Blue-Clothed Divine Master seemed to have expected Wang Xu to be shocked by this severed hand.

"Master, may I ask what this severed hand... no, what exactly is this treasure, that it can emit such terrifying life suppression!"

Wang Xu was eager to know.

According to common sense, whether it is a Saint Venerable Dominator Realm, or someone from the Celestial God Realm, after death, the body is just a worthless shell, even if the life level is high enough, it will gradually dissipate over time, finally becoming like an undecaying statue, with no trace of suppression at all.

However, this severed hand, whether the owner of the hand still lives is unknown, but merely a part of the body has such terrifying life suppression, how powerful must he have been?

"This is the 'Heaven-Shocking Secret Collection'!"

The Blue-Clothed Divine Master's eyes sparkled, "This severed hand is the Heaven-Shocking Secret Collection I obtained by luck from a 'Forgotten Ancient Ruins' during my travels in chaos after leaving the Red Sun Divine Continent."

"Heaven-Shocking Secret Collection?"

Wang Xu had read so many books, yet had never heard of this term.

It was as if another big door stood before him, Wang Xu could be sure, behind this door was surely a world he had never seen before!

"No need to be so astonished, the Heaven-Shocking Secret Collection refers to those ancient existences, the severed hand in my hand is the secret collection left behind by ancient people!"

The Blue-Clothed Divine Master laughed, "Perhaps you do not understand yet, in the endless ages past, there was a time known as the 'Primordial World'."

"In the Primordial World, everything was primitive. At that time, chaos had no concept of Primordial Qi, no secret techniques, nor those weapons forged from heavenly materials and earthly treasures... what there was, were only the most resilient physical bodies and that unyielding will!"

Primordial World... Had such a primordial period existed on Earth in the recent times?

What is the difference between the chaos of the Primordial World and the Earthly Primordial World?

Wang Xu had doubts in his heart, but he did not ask, instead continuing to listen intently.

"In the Primordial period, the true dominators of chaos were not humans. Humans were just a small tribe in the Primordial World, striving for survival and the continuation of their race. They began to continuously temper their bodies, using all kinds of methods to forge their bodies to a terrifying realm, so much so that they could rely on their bodies to contend with various races of the Primordial World, and seize a place!"

The eyes of the Blue-Clothed Divine Master were filled with infinite reminiscence.

"Humans gained power, attained the right to continue living in chaos, so they began to use their intelligence to create weapons, armors, continuously progressing, and finally ushered in the most glorious era of the Human Race—the Human Emperor Era!"
