Talisman Emperor

For the sake of Origin World!

Even if Chen Xi didn’t understand it, he could sense the emotions contained within King Gu Yuan’s voice.

This supreme expert of the Origin World had practically poured his heart and soul into the Origin World, and his thoughts, intentions, and emotions were all placed onto it.

It was even to the extent that he’d acknowledged Origin Heaven as his master, so it was equivalent to making this into the objective that he sought throughout his lifetime!

Perhaps he’d made such a decision because he’d finally realized that just his strength alone was unable to revive the Origin Heaven?

But why does he insist on doing this?

Chen Xi was extraordinarily shocked, and he wasn’t able to calm down or digest all of this even after quite some time passed.

“Young man, what do you think of this fortune?” asked King Gu Yuan.

“It’s beyond imagination.” Chen Xi sighed lightly and said, “Unfortunately, the ability I possess is probably insufficient to enjoy such fortune.”

“You’re mistake. Throughout the entire Origin World and even the outside world, there isn’t another candidate as suitable as you are.” King Gu Yuan spoke seriously. “Don’t worry, I have no intention to harm you.”

Chen Xi replied with a question. “So, I have to agree even if I don’t want to?”

“You can think of it like that.” King Gu Yuan sighed with emotion. “However, I still hope you’ll be able to accept all of this sincerely. I don’t want to entrust the Core of Origin World to someone that doesn’t understand it.”

Chen Xi said with a slightly helpless tone, “Truthfully speaking, I’m not interested in it, so I’ll probably be unable to live up to Senior’s expectations.”

King Gu Yuan frowned, and then he chuckled. “I never expected that the precious treasure which King Mo Luo and King Jiu Ling coveted for countless years would become something you don’t want at all.”

Chen Xi said with a composed expression, “I just want to leave as soon as possible, that’s all.”

“Leave?” King Gu Yuan’s eyes were suddenly suffused with a slightly curious expression, and it caused Chen Xi to feel extremely uncomfortable and unable to help but ask. “Senior, what’s the meaning of this?”

“I’m just curious. The way to leave is just right in front of you, yet you’re actually refusing it resolutely. It really makes me wonder if you really want to leave or not?” King Gu Yuan spoke in a neither slow nor fast pace.

What? Chen Xi was stunned, and then he swiftly came to an understanding. “Senior, you mean that taking control of the Core of Origin World would allow me to locate the way out?”

King Gu Yuan said, “Is there a need to ask?”

Chen Xi thought for a moment, and he realized that he really had been a little simple-minded earlier.

The Core of Origin World represented the Laws and Order of the Heaven Dao of in the Origin World, so if he took control of it, then why would he worry about being unable to break through the barrier around the Origin World and leave it?

“Looks like I have no choice but to agree.” Chen Xi spoke with slight self-ridicule.

“Yes, this is the only way and the only path you can take. No one from the outside world has ever stepped foot into the here before you, and there has never been a single being from the Origin World that could leave it. The reason is the Core of Origin World.” When he saw that Chen Xi had started to gradually accept his suggestion, King Gu Yuan’s expression had eased up greatly.

“Because the Order and Laws of the Heaven Dao in the Origin World are in a silent state of slumber, and it’s no different than being sealed, right?” Chen Xi couldn’t help but add.

“Yes.” King Gu Yuan nodded.

“But why do you think I’ll be able to accomplish it once I obtain the Core of Origin World?” Chen Xi pursued an answer.

“Because you’ve brought change to the Origin World. I believe that Origin Heaven will definitely be able to awaken from its sealed off state while it’s in your hands.” King Gu Yuan answered him without the slightest hesitation. He was very clearly aware that if he didn’t eliminate Chen Xi’s doubts, then this young man would probably be unable to accept it completely.

“Alright, I agree.” Chen Xi remained silent for a long time before he agreed to it.

He was very clearly aware that he was bound to be unable to refuse since this conversation had begun. Fortunately, it wasn’t a bad thing, and it could even be considered as a rare fortuitous encounter, so Chen Xi didn’t feel frustrated about it.

“Thank you.” At this moment, as the number one expert of the Origin World that had attained an unfathomably terrifying state in his cultivation, King Gu Yuan, had actually carried out an unprecedented gesture. He’d actually bowed to Chen Xi with a solemn and serious expression!

This scene fully eliminated the last trace of fear in the bottom of Chen Xi’s heart. He was clearly aware that King Gu Yuan had really acted in this way for the sake of the Origin World.

…

From that day onward, Chen Xi, Ming, and Meng’meng stayed at the verdant valley, and they started to cultivate without any distractions.

According to King Gu Yuan, his cultivation was still too weak and was utterly insufficient to wield the strength of the Core of Origin World, and he might only be able to accomplish it by recovering his strength as soon as possible.

Chen Xi understood this because the Core of Origin World was the Law and Order of the Heaven Dao, so how could it be taken control of just like that?

Besides that, for the sake of allowing Origin Heaven to recover from its sealed state as soon as possible, Chen Xi had even handed over the complete cultivation technique of the Apotheosis Realm in the Origin Creation Technique, and King Gu Yuan disseminated it on his behalf.

In less than three days of time, all the living beings within the Origin World had obtained the Apotheosis Realm’s cultivation technique, and they also found out that Chen Xi’s group hadn’t been killed and had become friends with King Gu Yuan.

This news aroused excitement and relief in the hearts of all living beings in the Origin World. They were filled with admiration and respect towards Chen Xi, and his status in their hearts even surpassed King Gu Yuan.

After all, even King Gu Yuan was unable to create a technique like the Origin Creation Technique and provided to all of them to cultivate. This had undoubtedly changed their destiny.

Three months later, Chen Xi’s combat strength had recovered to the Universe Enlightened Ancestral God Realm, and he was only a step away from recovering to the Region Lord Realm.

The reason he’d been able to recover so quickly was because of King Gu Yuan’s assistance. Every single day when the veil of night descended, the nine moons that hung above in the sky would become Chen Xi’s place of cultivation, and even King Gu Yuan hadn’t disturbed his cultivation. It was even to the extent that for the sake of allowing Chen Xi to cultivate in peace, King Gu Yuan would frequently stand on guard by Chen Xi’s side in order to prevent him from being disturbed by the other residents of the Origin World.

After all, Chen Xi was the most renowned figure in Origin World, and he enjoyed the respect and admiration of all living beings. So, no one could say for sure that these residents of the Origin World wouldn’t act rashly and crazily.

Besides that, an extremely special and shocking incident had occurred in the Origin World during this period of time.

An Icewood Demon that resided in Nine Soul Region had suddenly attained enlightenment and created a technique called Icelight Awl. It was capable of creating thousands of ice awls that were sharp like swords and covered the heavens and the earth, and they possessed shocking destructive capabilities.

In the eyes of figures of Chen Xi, Ming, and King Gu Yuan, such a technique was naturally extremely crude and nothing worth mentioning.

But this was the first time that something like this had occurred throughout the history of the Origin World. After all, an Icewood Demon had actually been able to create an offensive technique!

That was simply inconceivable!

This incident instantly caused a wave of shock to arise through the Origin World, and it caused a huge uproar.

When they found out that the Icewood Demon had obtained its inspiration from the Origin Creation Technique and attained enlightenment to create such a technique, the admiration that the living beings throughout Origin World had towards Chen Xi had simply arrived at an unprecedented height!

Moreover, King Gu Yuan had even personally rewarded the Icewood Demon with numerous rare and precious treasures.

Such actions aroused the zeal in the hearts of all the living beings throughout Origin World, and they started to work even harder at studying the Origin Creation Technique.

Along with the passage of time, a few techniques had gradually started to appear within the Origin World. All of them had been created by the living beings who were stirred up by the Icewood Demon.

For a time, the atmosphere within Origin World had transformed, and the grand spectacle of numerous rudimentary techniques being born had started to appear. The countless living beings within the Origin World that possessed extraordinary intelligence had taken the Origin Creation Technique to be a supreme divine scripture, and they’d relied on the mental cultivation technique and profundities within it to create all sorts of techniques.

Such a scene was like one where a myriad of flowers were blooming, and it would be long before more and more techniques would be created as the number of living beings that attained enlightenment increased.

The increase in techniques would definitely slowly take form into a true cultivation system, and as their doctrines towards cultivation varied, all sorts would definitely be created as well.

All of this was thanks to the Origin Creation Technique which Chen Xi created!

This cultivation technique that had been honored as a supreme divine scripture by the living beings of Origin World had imperceptibly become a general framework that determined the cultivation system of the Origin World, and the creation of all techniques were comprehended from its profundities.

However, the path towards the Dao that every single living being comprehended was different, and the comprehensions they obtained varied.

King Gu Yuan noticed all of these changes, and he sighed endlessly with emotion in his heart. Moreover, he felt extremely relieved because the Origin World that had been in a dead state for countless years had finally started to change!

This firmed King Gu Yuan’s resolution to entrust the Core of Origin World to Chen Xi, and he felt that it was absolutely his wisest decision.

For the sake of displaying his gratitude, King Gu Yuan had even bestowed some of the treasures he stored to Chen Xi, Ming, and Meng’meng.

Another half year of time passed.

On this day, Chen Xi awoke from his cultivation while a wisp of bright light silently flashed through the depths of his eyes. He’d fully recovered his strength!

Presently, he possessed a combat strength comparable to a Seventh Star Region Lord, and the only difference was that he was utilizing Origin Energy and not Divine Energy.

I wonder if I can find a way to fully fuse the Origin Energy I possess with my Divine Energy, the energy of my soul, vital blood….

If I’m able to accomplish that, then would I be able to attain another breakthrough in my cultivation and wield a completely new form of energy? Chen Xi was lost in thought as a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind.

“Young Brother, it looks like you’ve recovered your past strength.” Meanwhile, an aged and experienced voice suddenly resounded before King Gu Yuan’s tall figure appeared in the distance.

“Senior, do you need something?” asked Chen Xi.

King Gu Yuan spoke casually. “In my opinion, it’s time to hand the Core of Origin World into your care.”

Chen Xi’s heart shook, and then he took a deep breath before he said, “Thank you, Senior, for fulfilling my wish.”

“No, it’s you who are helping the entire Origin World. You don’t have to thank me.” King Gu Yuan flicked his sleeve as he spoke, and then the pure, translucent, dazzling, and blazing ball of dark blue light had appeared amidst a wave of strange droning.

“Young Brother! Let’s begin!” King Gu Yuan’s gaze burned with anticipation as he spoke in a low voice.
