Dongbo Xue Ying looked around. The entire Xu Empire was in a state of chaos. Even though the shockwaves from the battle in the sky were weakened by the laws and the capital's arrays, the countless cultivators in the capital saw with their own eyes that the invincible 'Paragon Emperor Xu' was killed by a black-robed young man wielding a sword!
"The five of them are quite far from here." Dongbo Xue Ying relied on karma to sense that the five Paragons were more than three trillion kilometers away from here. With their speed, no one would be able to disturb him for the time being.
"Sou."
Dongbo Xue Ying turned into a stream of light and flew into the Ancient Shrine. Very soon, he entered the inner hall.
Raising his head to look at the highest point of the stairs, the black gourd was still faintly glowing in red. The ripples it emitted caused the surrounding void to distort, and there was even white fog rolling around it. Such power should have lasted for a few epochs.
"There are no more Paragons around. Even though there are still powerful existences in the Xu Empire, they probably wouldn't be able to stand up straight in the inner hall." Dongbo Xue Ying was very sure that since even Chong-Shi Forefather could only kneel at the entrance of the outer hall, there was a limit to the powerful existences in the Xu Empire.
"Hu …"
Dongbo Xue Ying let out a long breath.
He allowed his True Deity Heart to regain its calm and made preparations for climbing the stairs. Previously, the stairs were destroyed, but even if it wasn't, could he reach the end of the stairs? Even if he reached the end, could he pick up the black gourd? He had no confidence.
He sensed that the Spectre Prefecture Master of the five Venerables was teleporting at high speed towards the Sky Fire Palace. He did not rush towards the Xu Empire. "They know that they are not strong enough, so they are preparing to team up?"
Dongbo Xue Ying chuckled, not treating them as a threat.
He took a step.
"Dong!"
When his left foot stepped on the stairs, it was as though he was stepping on his soul, causing his True Deity Heart to ring. However, the experienced Dongbo Xue Ying remained unmoved. After calming his True Deity Heart, he took the second step.
Step by step, step by step …
He kept climbing upwards.
Indeed, no Almighties dared to come and destroy it. Not even one person dared to enter the shrine because the deaths of the Xu Empire's two Venerables were too great of a deterrence.
…
As he climbed higher and higher up the stairs, he got closer and closer to the Black Gourd. The distorted void ripples struck against his body, and the temperature grew hotter and hotter. The soul shockwaves also grew stronger, but Dongbo Xue Ying still gritted his teeth and continued climbing. Gradually, Dongbo Xue Ying felt as though everything around him was rumbling. He knew that, in reality, the surroundings were relatively quiet. It was his own soul that was roaring.
It was incomparably hot! Explosions rang out incessantly!
Dongbo Xue Ying began to sway as he walked, but he gritted his teeth and held on. His will was like a blade. His will flowed through his entire True Deity Heart. Even though he was swaying, he continued to move forward. Every time he stopped for a while, he would take a step forward.
Finally, he reached the spot closest to the black gourd.
Suddenly —
The dark red color on the surface of the black gourd suddenly disappeared, and so did the terrifying heat and energy waves. Following that, the gourd flew into Dongbo Xue Ying's arms.
"This?" Dongbo Xue Ying hugged the black gourd in a daze, "I got it just like that?"
He had thought of many difficulties.
He was worried that the black gourd was too hot, and that he would have to take it away through the void.
He was worried that there would be an even more terrifying shockwave?
In reality, the moment he walked in front of it, it flew into his arms.
"This Black Gourd?" Dongbo Xue Ying hugged the black gourd, and a strand of his luminous sun force tried to seep into it. But the moment his luminous sun force entered, it came into contact with the terrifying heat, and was instantly incinerated into nothingness.
"Brat, this Black Gourd isn't something you can control." A slightly sharp voice rang out. Although the voice was rather loud, it was very pleasant to listen to. It was like a beautiful melody.
At the same time —
A blurry figure appeared in the air in front of Dongbo Xue Ying.
Dongbo Xue Ying hugged the gourd, and looked at the figure in front of him with some surprise. This was a lifeform with a very unique appearance and attire, and it gave Dongbo Xue Ying a very unique feeling. He was in a human form, and his robes were like his skin, sticking to every part of his body. His robes were mainly silver and gold.
The skin on his face was green, and his hands were also green.
His hair was silvery-white, and it was tied into small braids. His eyebrows were also silvery-white, and they were like two swords. There were three golden horns on his head, and his eyes were also golden.
Obviously.
This was an appearance that Dongbo Xue Ying had never seen before. It was fine if it was just the appearance. After all, what other races did they not have?
However, this figure gave Dongbo Xue Ying a very unique feeling. Even though it was just a figure, it still emitted an aura. This aura was different from any other aura he had felt in the past. It wasn't a common pressure, nor was it like Monarch Green's aura that made people submit to him, nor was it like Pang Yi's aura that made people feel close. Instead, it was a type of 'nothingness'. It was as though he was a member of the void of the world, vast and boundless.
It was like the sky, but it also felt even higher and more vast than the sky.
"The fireball within this black gourd, in terms of strength, is on the same level as the Sun Star of your cosmos. You can think of it as the Sun Star hidden within this gourd." The silver-haired, golden-horned man grinned. "You foolishly tried to control it? Even the Hegemons among you wouldn't be able to do so. "
Dongbo Xue Ying was stunned.
What?
The black gourd had emitted a terrifying temperature earlier, but the 'fireball' within it was on the same level as the Sun Star?
What was the Sun Star? Every epoch had its own Sun Star and Moon Star! They were the core of the cosmos, and if a Hegemon dared to enter, he or she would instantly die. In terms of strength, the Sun Star and Moon Star far surpassed the Hegemons.
"It, it …" Dongbo Xue Ying hugged the black gourd in front of him and lowered his head to take a look. He didn't dare believe that a terrifying existence comparable to the Sun Star was hidden within.
"You can't even control it, much less refine it." The silver-haired, golden-horned man said.
Dongbo Xue Ying listened obediently.
So what if his master had been to the other two cosmos? He had actually met a terrifying existence that placed an existence similar to the Sun Star within the black gourd?
"I was forced to leave my hometown and wandered the cosmos, passing through many cosmos." The silver-haired, golden-horned man laughed. "Suddenly, one day, I realized that I didn't even have a single disciple. Therefore, I decided to accept apprentices. I spent a lot of effort to craft six gourds and threw them in six different universes. I set up many tests in each of them, and only those who passed the tests could become my apprentices and become one of the Voidwalkers. "
"Voidwalker?" Dongbo Xue Ying's heart was filled with doubt.
"The Voidwalker is a very unique cultivation system. It is different from the cultivation system of your cosmos. Naturally, you can cultivate both. The Voidwalker lineage is extremely difficult to cultivate. Thus, I set up many tests. The Voidwalker lineage is extremely rare. Thus, I left behind six gourds. These six gourds will also be your 'Dao Protector Treasures'. I hope that they will be able to protect you when you are still weak. " The silver-haired, golden-horned man shook his head. "However, I reckon that even one of my six disciples would be able to reach my level."
"Don't be anxious. You are not my disciple yet."
"In the fifth epoch of your cosmos, I came to your cosmos. I discovered that this cosmos was created by that old fogey 'Tian Yu'. Furthermore, this cosmos even gave birth to a very monstrous cultivator. He was actually able to barge into the Starting Ground left behind by that old fogey Tian Yu. It seems like the cultivators of your cosmos have quite a bit of potential. That's why you left behind an inheritance here."
"I placed a star map in the Six Paths Tian Lun created by that 'Ancestor Devil'. Only those who are able to pass his Three Devil Halls test and are young enough would be able to obtain that star map. I placed a total of 12 star maps in there." The silver-haired, golden-horned man said. "Only those who obtain the star map would be allowed to enter this world."
Dongbo Xue Ying was finally certain.
Previously, he was puzzled. Be it the Ancestor Devil or the Lake Heart Island master, they did not leave behind many absolute arts in the Deity world and Abyss! Why were there so many absolute arts in this world?
So it turned out that the star map was not left behind by the Ancestor Devil.
It was placed into the Ancestor Devil's treasure vault by this' Voidwalker '. One of the six gourds refined from it, the' Black Gourd ', was already this strong. But this' Voidwalker 'was actually forced to leave his hometown? He even knew the old ancestor of the Starting Ground, 'Ancestor Tian Yu'. Ancestor Tian Yu was the creator of this cosmos?
With so many secrets, Dongbo Xue Ying was a little dazed.
"Obtaining the Black Gourd is merely the first trial." The silver-haired, golden-horned man smiled. "I will now impart a technique to you. By relying on this technique, you will be able to control the Black Gourd. You need to master this technique within five years. This can be considered the second trial! As for the third trial, it is for you to think of a way … Remember, think of a way yourself. You are not allowed to rely on anyone else to refine the Black Gourd within a million years. "
"Once you pass the third trial, you will naturally know the location of the inheritance and receive the inheritance."
"If you fail, the Black Gourd will return here and wait for the next brat with potential. I have left behind a total of 12 star maps!"
The silver-haired, golden-horned man smiled.
At the same time, his figure transformed into countless runes which tunneled into Dongbo Xue Ying's forehead.
