"You're here?"
As soon as Xu Chuan stepped into the grand hall, Xuan Sa's voice echoed in his ears.
Looking up, he saw Xuan Sa sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, just as he always was in the hall.
Only when Xu Chuan arrived did he open his eyes.
However, unlike before, there were two more people beside him this time.
One was Elder Blood Three Swords, whom Xu Chuan had met before in the trial tower.
At present, Blood Three Swords was looking at him with a smile, his eyes carrying a hint of anticipation.
The other was an old man similar to Blood Three Swords, whom Xu Chuan had not met before.
However, judging from the aura emanating from him and the current scene.
This person should be the other Supreme Elder at the top of the Transmission Tower.
Only these two could be on equal footing with Xuan Sa.
As expected, Xu Chuan used the system to check, and it was indeed the Supreme Elder he had imagined.
His name was Zhu Rufeng, and like Blood Three Swords, he was also at the peak of the Half-Emperor realm.
These three represented the peak combat power of the Taiyi Holy Land.
"Greetings, Holy Lord, greetings to the two Supreme Elders!"
Xu Chuan bowed respectfully, his etiquette impeccable.
All three were top-tier existences with extraordinary strength, and as seniors of the Holy Land, they deserved the utmost respect.
"No need for formalities."
Xuan Sa said softly, waving his hand. Xu Chuan's body involuntarily straightened.
From this, it could be seen that after Xuan Sa opened up his inner world, his strength had undergone tremendous changes.
Now, he even had the power to fight against a first-tier Emperor Lord!
He was even just a step away from completely breaking through to the Emperor Lord realm!
And the wisp of Chaos Origin Force in Xu Chuan's hand was that final step.
It could be said that Xuan Sa's breakthrough to the Emperor Lord realm was a foregone conclusion!
"You've worked hard on this trip!"
Xuan Sa said softly.
He was well aware of the immense difficulty of this Grand Competition of the Five Domains.
To compete for that opportunity, it was bound to be fraught with peril.
It was by no means easy for Xu Chuan to still win first place under such circumstances.
He had even brought Ning Youci and Cui Jiang to win second and third place.
This made it even more challenging.
"To bring glory to the Holy Land and to serve the Holy Lord is not a matter of hardship."
Xu Chuan shook his head.
This was also his sincere feeling.
To be honest.
Apart from encountering some minor dangers in the illusionary battlefield, there were no great challenges on this trip.
The dangers encountered were far outweighed by the gains.
This time, the harvest was truly abundant!
It was just that these things could not be told to Xuan Sa and the others.
He could only keep them to himself.
"Good!"
"As expected of our Taiyi Holy Son!"
Xuan Sa was overjoyed upon hearing Xu Chuan's reply.
Having a Holy Son like Xu Chuan was truly a great fortune for their Taiyi Holy Land!
However, while happy, he did not forget the important matter for which he had summoned Xu Chuan today.
Even as the Holy Lord of Taiyi, Xuan Sa appeared very nervous about this matter.
After considerable deliberation, he finally asked, "Did you really obtain that opportunity?"
After asking, he stared at Xu Chuan, his demeanor far from calm.
The two Supreme Elders beside him were also the same.
Although they had received news that Xu Chuan had obtained the opportunity to break through to the Emperor Lord realm, this was still hearsay, and its authenticity was yet to be confirmed.
Only when Xu Chuan personally admitted it would their anxious hearts finally be put at ease.
Seeing the expressions of the three, Xu Chuan did not play coy.
He opened his mouth frankly, "Reporting to the Holy Lord and the two Supreme Elders, your disciple has indeed obtained the opportunity to break through to the Emperor Lord realm!"
"I have not failed in my mission!"
Boom!
As soon as these words were spoken.
Instantly.
Three powerful auras filled the entire hall, exceedingly terrifying.
Fortunately, Xu Chuan's strength was formidable, otherwise, he would have been instantly crushed by these powerful auras.
At this moment, the faces of Xuan Sa and the two Supreme Elders were filled with ecstatic joy.
They were genuinely happy with Xu Chuan's answer.
"Excellent!"
"Heaven blesses our Taiyi!"
"Well done!"
The three spoke excitedly, and at the height of their emotions, tears even welled up in their eyes.
If outsiders saw this scene, they would likely be astonished.
Fortunately, there was no one else here except Xu Chuan.
The three did not shy away from Xu Chuan.
But it was understandable.
With this opportunity, it meant that after countless years, Taiyi Holy Land would have another Emperor realm powerhouse.
Taiyi Holy Land would ascend to a new height.
How could they not be excited and happy about such a momentous event?
No matter who it was, they probably wouldn't be able to suppress their emotions.
Xu Chuan seized the opportunity and took out the Myriad Spirit Cauldron.
The wisp of Chaos Origin Force within, after being refined and suppressed by the Myriad Spirit Cauldron, had long lost its initial wildness.
Now, it was docile.
Xu Chuan beckoned, and it flew out of the Myriad Spirit Cauldron, floating and sinking in his palm.
The moment they saw this wisp of Chaos Origin Force, the breathing of Xuan Sa and the three faltered.
Instantly, a strange attraction surged through their bodies from top to bottom.
They wished they could merge with this wisp of Chaos Origin Force immediately.
However, Xu Chuan did not feel this way.
His realm was not high enough; even if he absorbed this wisp of Chaos Origin Force immediately, he would not be able to break through to the Emperor Lord realm.
Furthermore, he still had a more perfect wisp of Chaos Origin Force in his system.
Therefore, this wisp of Chaos Origin Force held no attraction for him.
"Is this that thing?"
Suppressing the agitation in his heart, Xuan Sa asked cautiously.
"That's right, this is the Chaos Origin Force that can help the Holy Lord break through!"
Xu Chuan affirmed.
Then, he recounted what was recorded in the beast skin scroll to the three of them.
This also clarified to them the origin of this wisp of Chaos Origin Force and the mystery of the disappearance of the Emperor Lords.
After a long time, they finally digested the information brought back by Xu Chuan.
"So that's how it is."
Blood Three Swords smiled bitterly, shaking his head.
The truth they had been searching for for countless years turned out to be so simple.
The three of them didn't know what to say.
"Holy Lord, I shall entrust this item to you."
Without any hesitation, Xu Chuan handed over this wisp of Chaos Origin Force to Xuan Sa.
This thing was like a hot potato; many people would go to any lengths for it.
Xuan Sa numbly took the wisp of Chaos Origin Force.
Dazed by the surprise, he hadn't reacted for a moment.
"Holy Lord, please be prepared."
"The news has leaked. Taiyi Holy Land is about to face a huge challenge."
"If we overcome it, the future will be boundless; if we don't, the consequences are unimaginable!"
Xu Chuan said solemnly.
This was not just his challenge, but everyone's challenge.
It was necessary to inform them in advance.
Hearing this, the expressions of the three became serious.
They also understood that what Xu Chuan said was the truth.
The appearance of this item would definitely push Taiyi Holy Land to the forefront.
It was both an opportunity and a crisis.
"Rest assured!"
"We will deal with any challenge that comes our way. Anything that falls into my hands will not be given away!"
"Anyone who dares to come will meet their death!"
Xuan Sa said coldly, his killing intent exceptionally terrifying.
This Chaos Origin Force was related to his Dao path, and he would absolutely not hand it over!
