'Even if they saw me execute the Light of Extreme Darkness before, so what? They won't think that I will become the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness!
Even if the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness appeared a little too suddenly, so what? Unless they aren't tempted by it, or else … '
A distortion that lasted for nearly seven days appeared in the galaxy near the Immortals' Union. The area of the distortion reached three hundred million feet, and it attracted the attention of most cultivators in the Immortals' Union.
It was especially so on the seventh day. The distortions turned into a huge crack, and a ray of black light that looked like it could freeze the universe appeared. That light continued spreading outwards and turned into a complete origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness!
The Light of Extreme Darkness shone nonstop within an area of three hundred million feet. This scene instantly shocked the entire Immortals' Union. In fact, after another seven days, even Morning Dao Sect learned of it.
In fact … the war between the two sides seemed to have gradually come to a stop once the gigantic origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness appeared. Countless gazes landed on the region belonging to the Immortals' Union through the galaxy.
Every single day, a large number of cultivators from the Immortals' Union surrounded the area of three hundred million feet to observe the Light of Extreme Darkness that had suddenly appeared half a month ago. There was shock in their eyes, along with deep greed.
They could sense a chill that could freeze hearts and souls spreading out from the Light of Extreme Darkness. They could also sense the terrifying power contained within it.
There were twenty-four hours in a day. Only during those two hours would the gigantic origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness weaken slightly, but once those two hours passed, it would immediately appear at its strongest point of the day.
The time of day would change every single day. There was some sort of pattern to this change, causing many people to be able to tell at first glance that this was a source of light that did not have any consciousness.
It only changed based on instinct. No one knew why it had suddenly appeared in the galaxy, but it was clear that this was a supreme treasure that all cultivators would desire to obtain.
If anyone could obtain it and refine it, then their divine abilities would increase by leaps and bounds. In fact, they could even become famous with the Light of Extreme Darkness. After all, there was only one Light of Extreme Darkness in Morning Dao Sect, and it was gathered together to form a trial ground. In fact, it was said that Progenitor Dao Chen had personally subdued it several tens of thousands of years ago.
Right then, what had appeared in True Morning Dao World was not just one source of light, but a gigantic source of light. It was like the contrast between the bright moon and the light of a firefly. It turned into greed that grew endlessly in the hearts of all the cultivators who knew about it.
After all, this was not just a single ray of the Light of Extreme Darkness. It was … a vast source of light. If a cultivator could refine it, they would be able to achieve great things. If they placed it in a race, they could make that race stronger. In fact, if they placed it in Morning Dao Sect or the Immortals' Union, they could refine it into an astonishing supreme treasure. It would be of great use in any battle.
The appearance of the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness had already attracted the attention of the powerful cultivators in the Immortals' Union. However, the core members of the Immortals' Union — the Phoenix Sect and the Immortal sects who formed the union — immediately sealed off the spot where the Light of Extreme Darkness had appeared.
The Light of Extreme Darkness had basically appeared at the doorstep of the Immortals' sects, which was why they were the first to notice it. In fact, most of the people who had been sent to observe it were from the Immortals' sects.
When the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness had appeared for nearly twenty days, the white-robed Bai Feng stared at the Light of Extreme Darkness in the galaxy and said coldly, "This is indeed the Light of Extreme Darkness …"
By her side was Di Tian, who was dressed in a white robe and had a head full of white hair. He looked even older than a month ago. He stared at the Light of Extreme Darkness, and no one could tell what he was thinking.
Between them was the black-robed man from Saint Defier Expanse Cosmos and one of the Eight Paramount Daos. His face was hidden under the black robe, but it could not hide the strange light shining in his eyes.
"The origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness is a rare item that will only appear in a growing Expanse Cosmos beyond the universe … It has completely disappeared from Saint Defier's camp.
"Only a growing Expanse Cosmos can give birth to the Light of Extreme Darkness. Once an Expanse Cosmos is completely formed, it will disappear! "The boundless galaxy only has a sliver of a chance to grow into a Expanse Cosmos like Saint Defier and Dark Dawn, which will each have 180 Expanse Cosmoses. Only then will such a dazzling light appear in this growing, primordial Expanse Cosmos …
"To Arid Triad, Saint Defier and Dark Dawn are old men. Arid Triad is still a child. Whoever has this child will be able to suppress the other camp and become the only existence in the boundless galaxy!
"I didn't expect that I would see the brilliant origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness born alongside Arid Triad after just one thousand something years!" The black-robed man's eyes sparkled, and he sighed with emotion in his heart.
"Have someone step into the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness every single moment for the next half a month and search for its Origin Core. Lock down the perimeter and forbid anyone from entering. Those who disobey will be killed!" The black-robed man's eyes sparkled as he spoke slowly.
"Sublime Paragon Di Tian, if I can control the Light of Extreme Darkness, even if I can't refine it within a short period of time, as long as I leave a Divine Brand on its Origin Core, I can activate it in a simple manner. I can increase the chances of your Life Changing Art by two-tenths."
Di Tian's eyes focused swiftly. He cast a glance at the black-robed man, then lifted his right hand. A jade slip instantly appeared on his palm. When he squeezed it, it turned into nine wisps of smoke that swiftly left into the distance. It stirred up all the Immortal sects, and they executed a tight lockdown on the place.
"Fellow Daoist Bai Feng, you might have your Master's recommendation, but if you want to become a cultivator of Saint Defier, there are still plenty of obstacles in your path. At the very least, your body won't be able to withstand the Reversal Return Art, but if I can successfully obtain the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness, then your Master and I will jointly recommend you. Because of that, with my status as one of the Eight Paramount Daos, your chances of becoming a cultivator of Saint Defier will increase by two-tenths!"
Bai Feng's expression remained the same. In silence, she cast a cold glance at the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness.
"Senior, don't you think that the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness appeared too suddenly? I know that Dao Kong, who was forced beyond the universe, has control over the Light of Extreme Darkness."
"It's precisely because he has control over the Light of Extreme Darkness that the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness appeared in the universe. There is a connection between this matter, and it is possible that you are worried about it, fellow Daoist Bai Feng." The black-robed man laughed. Even though he said those words, he did not think much of it. In his mind, Dao Kong only had control over the Light of Extreme Darkness, but the one before him was the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness. The difference between the two was like heaven and earth.
"But I still need to go through the necessary tests." As the black-robed man laughed hoarsely, he moved and instantly appeared beyond the Light of Extreme Darkness. He lifted his right hand and struck the center of his brows. A vast will immediately appeared with a bang and turned into an invisible wind that charged towards the Light of Extreme Darkness.
After a moment, the black-robed man shuddered. When he retracted his will, excitement appeared in his eyes under his robes.
"This is indeed the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness. There's no hint of consciousness in it. It's definitely not fake!" As the black-robed man laughed, he took a few steps back. He did not immediately act recklessly. He knew that the Light of Extreme Darkness contained incredibly severe damage to the Nascent Divinity, but it was precisely because it did not have any consciousness that there was a pattern to many of the changes. If he found a path to the core and left his Brand, he could claim it as his own.
Besides, when he sent his divine sense outwards just then, he had only sent it out nearly three-tenths of the way before he sensed the great power and changes in the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness. When the light intersected with each other and spread out, he did not dare to force his way in. In fact, he could even sense a hint of danger in it.
But the more dangerous it was, the more greed the black-robed man felt. He was also anxious. He knew that in another month, Xing Ji Dao would descend. If he had not obtained the Light of Extreme Darkness by then, there would be another person who would snatch it from him.
"Then I will have the cultivators from the Immortals' Union continue fighting against Morning Dao Sect so that they won't be able to divert their attention to plot for the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness in this place. As for your promise, I thank you, senior," Bai Feng said coldly and bowed slightly towards the black-robed man.
"You flatter me." The black-robed man smiled before turning around and disappearing from the place. He returned to the area beyond the pillar of light in the Immortals' territory. When he appeared there, the smile on his face disappeared and was replaced by a stern expression. He lifted his right hand and struck the pillar of light. Immediately, the colors in the pillar became chaotic, and seven distorted shadows manifested within it.
"Seven Fingers under me, fuse into the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness and investigate clearly whether it is man-made. Investigate clearly whether it truly does not have its own will, just as the rumors say!
"I will give you ten days. You must complete your task!" The black-robed man said flatly. Immediately, the seven distorted shadows in the pillar of light shone and turned into seven black-robed men. Once they bowed, they disappeared together.
When the Immortals' Union was fully activated, a large number of cultivators would enter the Light of Extreme Darkness to investigate. Usually, only one out of ten who entered would survive, and as time passed, the number of casualties increased. Morning Dao Sect also carried out a large number of investigations, but the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness had appeared in the core of the Immortals' Union. Because of it, Morning Dao Sect could not do anything about it.
All of this was carried out in an orderly manner. In fact, seven black-robed men had arrived in the Light of Extreme Darkness without a single sound a few days ago, and they were carrying out a strict investigation.
Su Ming saw everything that happened. He saw the black-robed man's divine sense coming towards him and the seven black-robed men whose presences were clearly much weaker than the black-robed man's. They were searching through his light, and he also saw Di Tian as well as Bai Feng, who looked the exact same as Bai Ling …
Because he was the origin of the Light of Extreme Darkness. No matter how others tried to investigate him, he was still the Light of Extreme Darkness, and the only thing Su Ming needed to do was hide his will and show that he was unconscious.
With the bald crane's help, everything would be much simpler.
This was Su Ming's trap. He used himself as bait. He was waiting, waiting for someone to come and collect him. He was waiting … for someone to personally bring him into the heavily guarded region of the Immortals.
And that day was getting closer and closer. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Starting Point and cast a recommendation vote or monthly vote.
