Chapter 112: Another Heavenly Void? The Hope of Unsealing the Taixu Immortal Sword?

Year 10!

【Wuji Heavenly Venerable, as a revered figure who has survived since ancient times, undoubtedly knows more than you have learned from various secret realms or ruins.】

【Wuji Heavenly Venerable explained that while the Heavenly Evolution Soul Dan could repair a soul, its effectiveness was still limited.】

【You also understood that relying on just a single Heavenly Evolution Soul Dan could at most prolong Wuji Heavenly Venerable’s soul’s fading for a time.】

【To truly reverse the passage of time and restore Wuji Heavenly Venerable’s soul would require the legendary Immortal Elixir of Immortality.】

【“Although I’ve regained some memories, there’s still not much.”】

【“The Heavenly Secrets Pavilion was originally placed in the Heavenly Void by me!”】

【Upon hearing that the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion had been placed in the Heavenly Void by Wuji Heavenly Venerable, you furrowed your brows.】

【“Senior, why did you put the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion into the Heavenly Void? And how did you end up in Qingzhou?”】

【Wuji Heavenly Venerable explained that the reason he placed the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion into the Heavenly Void was because of the Xuanyuan Clan.】

【“The Xuanyuan Clan sought the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion for help.”】

【“The Xuanyuan Clan had a piece of Immortal Source, which they held more dearly than their own lives.”】

【“When the Canglan Realm was on the brink of collapse, they came to me, asking me to place the Immortal Source under the protection of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion.”】

【Wuji Heavenly Venerable continued, explaining that at that time, the late ancient period was upon them.】

【At that point, most of the top forces and families in the Central Continent had already fallen, leaving no peak combatants left to resist the Bizarre Insect Clan.】

【In the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, only Wuji Heavenly Venerable remained as the last top-tier powerhouse.】

【In the end, Wuji Heavenly Venerable disbanded the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, taking the Xuanyuan Clan’s Immortal Source to the Heavenly Void, leaving the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion there.】

【“So, Xuanyuan Tianji was placed in the Heavenly Void by you?”】

【“Exactly!”】

【Wuji Heavenly Venerable told you that he hadn’t known that there was a person sealed within the Immortal Source.】

【Out of respect for the Xuanyuan Clan, Wuji Heavenly Venerable hadn’t checked what was inside the Immortal Source.】

【It wasn’t until you left the Heavenly Void and met Xuanyuan Tianji that Wuji Heavenly Venerable realized why the Xuanyuan Clan had placed such importance on the Immortal Source.】

【“But why did you end up in Qingzhou?”】

【“Sigh!”】

【After hearing this, Wuji Heavenly Venerable sighed deeply.】

【“Once I had dealt with the matters of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, I had no further ties. I then accepted the invitation of the Taixu Sword Sect to go to Qingzhou and fight alongside them.”】

【Wuji Heavenly Venerable told you that in the end, their efforts ended in failure.】

【In desperation, they exhausted their spiritual energy to create the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm and sought the Bronze Divine Hall, where they left their respective legacies.】

【Wuji Heavenly Venerable remained in the Bronze Divine Hall ever since.】

【Wuji Heavenly Venerable said that these were all the memories he had recalled so far, and some of it was based on his own speculation.】

【After hearing about the Taixu Sword Sect, you suddenly remembered the Taixu Immortal Sword.】

【“Senior Wuji! Do you know anything about the Taixu Immortal Sword?”】

【“Taixu Immortal Sword?”】

【Wuji Heavenly Venerable furrowed his brows slightly, pondering for a moment before speaking slowly.】

【“Ah, I remember now!”】

【“The Taixu Immortal Sword is the supreme treasure of the Taixu Sword Sect!”】

【“It was the Taixu Immortal Sword that allowed the Taixu Sword Sect to hold on for so long in the ancient period.”】

【“This Immortal Weapon has a certain restraining effect on the Bizarre Insect Clan, making the relatively weak Taixu Sword Sect one of the main sects fighting against them.”】

【“Unfortunately, the Taixu Immortal Sword is no longer as powerful as it once was.”】

【Hearing this, you understood what Wuji Heavenly Venerable meant.】

【You asked Wuji Heavenly Venerable who the Bizarre Insect sealed inside the Taixu Immortal Sword was.】

【Wuji Heavenly Venerable told you that the Bizarre Insect sealed inside the Taixu Immortal Sword was an insect from the Immortal Realm.】

【He explained that, due to the restrictions of the Heavenly Dao, although it was an Immortal Realm insect, it had to suppress its cultivation to the Tribulation Transcendence stage in the Canglan Realm.】

【Together, you and your companions managed to kill its physical form.】

【However, the Bizarre Insect Clan’s terrifying feature is their powerful souls, and you had no way of dealing with the soul of an Immortal Realm insect.】

【In the end, the Taixu Sword Sect’s sect leader feared it would possess again, so they used the Taixu Immortal Sword to seal the soul.】

【Yet, you still underestimated the Bizarre Insect Clan’s power. The Taixu Immortal Sword nearly fell under their control.】

【Ultimately, the Taixu Immortal Sword was shattered into nine pieces, each piece sealing part of the insect’s soul.】

【“If you had the help of the Taixu Immortal Sword, your chances of success would increase greatly, but unfortunately...”】

【After hearing the truth, you fell into a brief silence.】

【The Taixu Immortal Sword had been your favorite weapon before learning the truth, and when paired with the Taixu Sword Art, it produced an effect far greater than the sum of its parts.】

【After a moment, you asked Wuji Heavenly Venerable if there was any way to deal with the Bizarre Insect sealed within the Taixu Immortal Sword or to seal it somewhere else.】

【You weren’t expecting Wuji Heavenly Venerable to have a solution, but you asked nonetheless.】

【“Maybe! I’m saying maybe, but you might find a solution in the Heavenly Void.”】

【“The Heavenly Void?”】

【You didn’t expect the Heavenly Void to be involved again.】

【You asked Wuji Heavenly Venerable what the Heavenly Void’s origins were.】

【Wuji Heavenly Venerable told you that he didn’t know either.】

【“The Heavenly Void has always been there since ancient times. I don’t know how it formed, but it has existed at least since before the ancient period.”】

【“It contains too many powers that don’t belong to the Canglan Realm. Some believe the Heavenly Void is an ancient battlefield from the Immortal World, shattered and cast into the Canglan Realm.”】

【After hearing this, you pressed further and asked Wuji Heavenly Venerable what the Canglan Realm was like before the ancient period.】

【Wuji Heavenly Venerable remained silent for a moment, then sighed deeply.】

【“I don’t know!”】

【“The history before the ancient period seems to have been erased by some force. Maybe the previous master of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion knew something, but my memories haven’t fully returned.”】

【As you delved further into the truth of history, you found that the answers were only becoming more and more obscure.】

【“Sigh...”】

【You walked deeper into the Blood Demon Secret Realm.】

【Upon meeting Xuanyuan Tianji, you handed over some spiritual objects that Zi You had given you, then turned your gaze toward the Blood Stele not far away.】

【You knew that in order to obtain the Taixu Immortal Sword, you would have to release the Blood Demon Heavenly Venerable sealed beneath the Blood Stele.】

【And the only chance to release the Blood Demon Heavenly Venerable would be the year before the great calamity arrived.】

Year 10!

【Your cultivation has improved once again, and you're not far from breaking through to the late Integration stage.】

【The Ancestral Dragon Art has also enhanced your physical body, adding another layer of dragon scales and strengthening your physical constitution.】

【With your enhanced body, you now have a higher chance of success when facing the tribulations ahead.】

Year 12!

【You successfully broke through to the late Integration stage!】

【At the same time, you sensed that your external incarnation had also broken through to the mid-Integration stage.】

【But equally, your external incarnation was being hunted throughout the Central Continent.】

【Just as you were about to leave the Blood Demon Secret Realm and return to Sword Pavilion, you suddenly noticed that Xuanyuan Tianji’s cultivation had reached the early Deity Transformation stage.】
