"Admit defeat?"
As soon as he said that, the entire place fell into silence. The twelve Sovereigns were stunned as they looked at Wutian strangely.
He did not admit defeat even when facing the Flame Sect and Fire Cloud Sect. After a lot of effort, he finally destroyed them. But now, he actually admitted defeat.
In fact, they even suspected that they were hallucinating.
The first to react was the Great Sovereign. He frowned and said, "You want to admit defeat?"
Wutian did not reply. He only smiled bitterly and helplessly.
The Great Venerable's eyes were as sharp as lightning, and he could see through everything. However, he was unable to see through the white-haired man's thoughts, as if they were covered by a layer of fog.
At the same time, there were some complicated emotions in his eyes. Disappointment was the strongest.
"Since Wutian has admitted defeat, Tiangang, you can leave now. Don't mention a word about what happened today."
The Great Sovereign slammed his hand on the armrest of his chair. With a cracking sound, the armrest shattered. He was furious and announced the result.
The sudden sound woke everyone up. They all had complicated expressions. This result was out of their expectations. Thinking about it, Wutian did have some achievements in the Restriction Dao after cultivating in seclusion for a few years. But his cultivation and strength did not improve by much.
Since a Rank 8 Restriction could not trap Tiangang, it was impossible for him to defeat Tiangang with his Channel Opening Stage strength. Admitting defeat was the wisest choice.
However, most of them were more inclined to believe that Wutian was better than Tiangang in terms of talent and Restriction Dao. His future achievements would definitely be greater than Tiangang's.
This was especially true for Old Twelve, who felt extremely uncomfortable. On one hand, he was proud that he had single-handedly created a restriction genius. On the other hand, he had delayed Wutian's cultivation for the sake of restrictions, indirectly sending him to the guillotine.
"Yes, Master!"
Tiangang took a deep look at Wutian. He did not show much emotion as he opened the door and left quickly.
However, he was praying for Wutian in his heart. He hoped that everything would go according to plan.
"Second Sister, Third Brother, the two of you will stand guard outside. Wutian, come with me." The Great Venerable ordered before he stood up and headed towards the depths of the palace.
Letting out a long sigh, Wutian followed.
To be honest, he was still a bit nervous. After all, the Palace Master was someone who even Great Venerables respected. His strength was definitely at the peak of perfection when he was alive.
"This is infuriating! How could this brat Wutian admit defeat on his own accord? If he really couldn't beat Tian Gang, he could have just informed me in secret. What's wrong with me helping him?"
Twelfth Brother was so angry that his beard was blowing and his eyes were glaring. He was like an ant on a hot pan. He didn't know whether to sit or stand. His heart was full of anger.
The beautiful woman sighed and said, "Twelfth Brother, we all know that you think highly of Wutian. The same goes for me. However, since he has already admitted defeat, we can't let Tian Gang go. If this matter were to spread, our disciples would be bitterly disappointed."
"This is Wutian's own choice. He can't blame anyone else. Twelfth Brother, can't you just sit down? You are making me dizzy." The multicolor-clothed woman said helplessly.
"Da Da …"
The depths of the palace were a bit dim. There were no decorations on the walls or on the ground. It seemed very spacious.
Wutian silently followed behind the Great Venerable. Neither of them said anything. Only the sound of their messy footsteps reverberated in this place. The atmosphere was quite heavy.
After walking for about a hundred breaths, a pitch-black stone wall appeared in front of them. It was made of diamond. There was a layer of lime on it. It was dark and gloomy. It was obvious that it had been there for many years.
The Great Venerable walked to the bottom of the stone wall and took out the Venerable Token. A ray of light shot out from the token and merged with the stone wall. Immediately, a rumbling sound was heard. The stone wall slowly rose into the sky and a pitch-black hole appeared.
After putting away the Venerable Token, the Great Venerable took a step forward and entered the hole. Suddenly, rays of light appeared and illuminated the place.
Wutian's pupils shrank. He saw that there was a secret passage in front of him. It was just enough for two people to walk side by side. On the walls on both sides, fist-sized luminous pearls were hanging, illuminating the path ahead.
"Let's go!"
The Great Venerable didn't stop and walked straight inside.
Wutian's eyes flickered. He was silent for a while and followed the Great Venerable.
The secret passage was very long. After walking for about half an hour, they arrived at the end of the passage. There was a secret room in front of them. Two basin-sized luminous pearls were floating in the air. They emitted a bright light and illuminated this place as if it was daytime.
All of a sudden, a terrifying aura surged toward them. Wutian shuddered. His pores opened and he was drenched in cold sweat. It was as if there was a demon god in front of him. A strong sense of fear rose in his heart. He couldn't control it at all. It came from the depths of his soul!
Suppressing his emotions, Wutian looked up. Below the Luminous Pearl, a black-robed man was sitting cross-legged. Only his back could be seen. His long black hair was draped over his shoulders, like strands of black flames floating up and down.
What was strange was that according to his figure, this person was only one meter tall and looked like a child. However, Wutian had an illusion that he was like a towering mountain. He was emitting a powerful aura that covered the sky and covered the earth!
Moreover, Wutian smelled a strong smell of blood from this person. In a trance, he saw millions of corpses lying on the ground and blood flowing like a river. The scene was so bloody that he didn't dare to look at it.
"Could it be him?!"
Wutian felt uneasy as he followed the Great Venerable inside.
The Great Venerable bowed, "Greetings, Hall Master!"
Just as Wu Tian had expected, this person was the Asura Palace Lord. However, there was one thing that surprised him. Kong Lingzi's remnant soul was a wisp of flame, but how could the Asura Palace Lord's Primordial Spirit be a young man?
"Aiya, you don't even know this? You're even more stupid than a little frog."
At this time, Little Wu Hao's voice sounded out from within Wutian's spiritual sea. She patiently explained that the reason Kong Lingzi's remnant soul was in the form of a flame was because she was only at the initial Divine Transformation realm. Her primordial spirit had just been born and was in an illusory state. After reaching the small success stage of the Divine Transformation realm, one's primordial spirit would be able to cultivate a body of flesh and blood, possessing a certain level of intelligence.
"According to the state of this person's primordial spirit, his cultivation should have been at the large success stage of the Divine Transformation realm. This is because only at the large success stage can one's primordial spirit absorb essence energy to temper their body." Little Wu Hao deduced.
"You've come. The body you brought this time, don't disappoint me again."
The Hall Master spoke, his voice loud and clear like a peal of thunder. Within the 100 foot chamber, his voice lingered for a long time, filled with deep dissatisfaction.
"It won't. The body this time is the Son of Heaven. I guarantee you will be satisfied."
"Son of Heaven!"
Hearing this, the Hall Master suddenly stood up. He turned around, his eyes flashing with lightning.
Weng weng!
Immediately, Wutian's mind buzzed. From his body to his heart, and then to his soul, he was covered in fear!
At the same time, he also clearly saw this person's appearance. This was a man with the body of a child but the face of an adult. He was filled with the charm of the vicissitudes of life. His eyes flickered with arcs of lightning, crackling as they shattered the void.
The Hall Master said with satisfaction, "Mm, not bad. This is indeed the Son of Heaven. You may leave!"
"Yes!" The Great Venerable cupped his hands together and deeply looked at Wutian. Then, he turned and walked out of the chamber, vanishing into the dark tunnel.
"Come here."
The Hall Master took two steps back and pointed at the place where he was originally sitting, indicating for Wutian to sit down.
After pondering for a moment, Wutian walked forward and sat on the ground. He was quite nervous. The Hall Master was too strong. Just the pressure of the Primordial Spirit made him a little breathless.
"Little Wu Hao, are you confident?" Wutian asked in his mind.
Little Wu Hao vowed solemnly, "Don't worry, it's just a Primordial Spirit. It can't cause any trouble. However, suppressing the Primordial Spirit this time may consume a large amount of the Star Realm's laws. At that time, I will fall into a deep sleep again. I'm afraid the matter of repairing the two broken gloves will be delayed again."
Then, as if he knew the worry in Wutian's heart, he added, "Don't worry, nothing will happen to me. I only need to sleep for a few years to recover. Moreover, refining the Hall Master's Primordial Spirit is very beneficial to my cultivation. When I wake up next time, I may be able to remember more of the past."
At this time, Wutian's nervous heart was completely relieved. However, Little Wu Hao actually wanted to refine the Hall Master's Primordial Spirit and not destroy it. This made him very surprised. If that was the case, did that mean that Kong Lingzi's remnant soul was also refined?
From this, Wutian further understood how terrifying Little Wu Hao was.
Dispersing his thoughts, he calmed down and focused, waiting for the Hall Master to seize his body.
"Hmm?"
Looking at the man in front of him, the Hall Master was also very surprised. The Hall Master was about to seize his body, but he could still be so calm. It was as if he didn't care at all.
However, he didn't care. He was just a small cultivator at the peak of the Channel Opening Stage. When he was alive, he could kill him tens of thousands of times with just a breath. Even if he was only left with his Primordial Spirit now, he could still easily swallow his soul and complete the Hall Master's possession.
Then, he slowly rose into the air and floated above Wutian's head. With a low shout, he turned into a jet black light and entered Tian Tian's head.
"Haha, it is indeed a good body. After seizing your body, I only need 500 years to recover to my peak state when I was alive. I may even surpass my previous state and step into that step."
In Wutian's sea of consciousness, the Hall Master's loud laughter rang out. It contained great power, and Wutian's soul trembled as if it was about to collapse.
"Wu Hao!"
Wutian shouted in his heart. Suddenly, boundless milky light overflowed from the Star Realm and filled the entire sea of consciousness. The laws of heaven and earth and divine chains of order surged out and bound the Hall Master's Primordial Spirit like a dumpling.
"This is … the laws of heaven and earth … How, how can you have such divine power …"
The Hall Master's voice was filled with fear as if he had seen a ghost. Before he finished speaking, he was sucked into the Star Realm by the divine chains of order.
At the same time, Wutian disappeared from where he was and entered the Star Realm. When he appeared, he saw that the Hall Master was imprisoned by the laws of heaven and earth of the Star Realm. No matter how hard he struggled, it was useless and he couldn't escape.
"Who are you? Why do you have your own small world? This is impossible. You are only at the Channel Opening Stage. This is absolutely impossible. This small world is illusory. This is just an illusion. It is a lie!"
The Palace Lord screamed in agony. His face was filled with disbelief as he tried to deny what he had just seen. However, he had no choice but to believe what he had just seen. His Primordial Spirit was constantly melting away, turning into strands of black energy that surged into Little Wuhao's body.
