101: The remnants of the Supreme Being, the truth of what happened back then.

Instantly, Xu Jinhuan became tense to the extreme.

Within his Heavy Pupils, symbols circulated and divine light shone, emitting a power capable of piercing through all falsehoods.

Simultaneously, the Chaos Body protected its master, stimulating an earth-shattering power.

Countless Great Daos surged around him, runes rose, and Chaos mist permeated, forming one unbreakable wall after another.

Deep within his body, there existed an eternally indestructible mysterious Concept, transcendent and stunning.

He feared the opponent might suddenly erupt and launch an attack.

However, that ancient figure, shining like a scorching sun, remained motionless, surrounded by a suffocatingly thick Death Qi.

After a moment of observation, Xu Jinhuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The other party was not a living person.

To be precise, the other party wasn't even a dead person, but merely a Supreme Remnant Body without a will.

However, the owner of this remnant body had already stood at the Peak of the Emperor Realm when cutting off this part of the body; his Dao and Law were refined to the extreme and completely fused with the remnant body, persisting through countless ages and bestowing upon this remnant body nearly immortal characteristics.

Even as hundreds of thousands of years passed, it still maintained its original appearance, its Aura overwhelming, as if that Supreme were still alive.

But it was not a living thing after all.

"Is this... the Supreme Remnant Body?"

After seeing the situation clearly, Luo Qingxian breathed a sigh of relief, her tone serious.

The brief moment of fear had left her back completely drenched.

"It should be. The projection of the Supreme battle on the sky outside is likely derived from this remnant body."

Xu Jinhuan nodded, his Heavy Pupils taking in everything.

He could clearly perceive that the overwhelming Primal Great Dao Aura outside was emanating from this ancient figure before him, like a source of living water, nourishing the entire Palace Secret Realm.

It seemed to sense the arrival of Xu Jinhuan and Luo Qingxian, or perhaps it was stimulated by the Aura on them.

On that originally dead remnant body, the dense Primal power suddenly surged, gushing out like a volcanic eruption and sweeping through the entire Void Realm!

Boom!

The infinite pitch-black shadows outside, as if summoned by some Supreme command, instantly fell into a frenzied riot.

They let out sharp, ear-piercing shrieks, surging toward the Heavenly Palace like a tide, their momentum terrifying, as if they wanted to tear all outsiders to shreds!

The moment the Primal power surged, Xu Jinhuan suddenly noticed a mysterious suction coming from that Emperor remnant body.

In the next second, a wisp of Eternal Law within his body was uncontrollably pulled out,

Like iron filings attracted by a magnet, drifting toward that ancient figure.

"Hmm?"

Xu Jinhuan was somewhat surprised and subconsciously tried to retract the Law.

But he found this suction gentle yet domineering; it wasn't a malicious plundering, but rather a longing that carried a near-pleading quality.

"It... seems to really need my Eternal Law?"

However, Xu Jinhuan still intercepted his Eternal Law, not letting the suction succeed.

After doing all this, he turned to look at the serious Luo Qingxian beside him.

Inside the entire Supreme Heavenly Palace, there was only the Supreme Remnant Body. Based on her previous words, she had known about its existence for a long time, and she likely came specifically for it.

"Miss Luo, what exactly are you here for? By now, you should be able to give an honest account, right?"

Luo Qingxian did not speak, but instead took out a Yin and Yang Two-Colored Orb filled with Primal Aura, using her power to send it before the Supreme Remnant Body.

In the next moment, the Supreme Remnant Body flashed with white light, and the orb instantly disappeared. The Primal Aura on it surged violently once again, as if it had come to life.

The withered figure instantly swept away its gloom, erupting with an unprecedentedly brilliant light!

Boom!

An extreme power suddenly erupted, a Supreme Might far exceeding the Emperor Realm filled the entire starry sky, and the terrifying Divine Might crushed through the ages, making the surrounding stars tremble.

Xu Jinhuan and Luo Qingxian were enveloped by this power, and they actually felt an illusion of being as small as dust, making even breathing difficult.

"Is this... the Peak power of the Primal Supreme?"

The instigator, Luo Qingxian, was dumbfounded, her voice trembling. She had never thought her actions could activate such a terrifying power.

Just then, the Void Realm before them suddenly distorted,

An ancient world projection slowly emerged, reflected in the starry sky.

As the images shifted, the two were able to glimpse the truth of the past.

Once, an endless dark Aura swept in from the end of the Void Realm, attempting to annihilate the Three Thousand Dao Provinces and this entire great world, and an earth-shattering battle began.

The heavens cracked, the earth sank, and a rain of blood dyed the sea of stars red.

The dark creatures were incredibly powerful with bizarre methods, and there was no shortage of Emperor-level experts among them.

At that time, many Emperors and Quasi-Emperor experts retreated step by step, lives were lost, and a wail filled the world as it seemed on the verge of total collapse.

In the midst of the crisis, the Primal Supreme, who had disappeared for a long time, suddenly appeared, leading the remaining Cultivators in a fierce counterattack, and with an invincible posture, annihilated billions upon billions of dark creatures.

On the battlefield, his light was dazzling to the extreme, his combat power unsurpassed throughout history; almost single-handedly, he reversed the entire battle and suppressed and killed several Dark Emperors.

Finally, he charged alone toward the source of darkness at the end of the Void Realm, where a more earth-shaking and terrifying battle erupted with the Dominator existence within.

At his Peak, the Primal Supreme wore Chaos Armor and held a Heaven-Splitting Giant Axe; the Primal power surged around him, his Battle Intent boiling, overturning the heavens and the earth.

Every one of his strikes could tear through the galaxy, splitting the darkness with ten thousand feet of light.

His opponent, however, was a terrifying existence shrouded in endless darkness, emitting a deathly Aura that swallowed everything—the foreign Dark Supreme.

Every attack from the Dark Supreme could corrode space and erase life, causing everything to wither wherever it passed.

"Primal, you cannot stop me! Darkness will eventually swallow everything!"

The Dark Supreme's roar pierced through time and space, carrying a malice that sought to destroy all.

"As long as I am here, darkness shall not lay a finger on this world!"

The Primal Supreme's voice was majestic and firm, like the clear Heavenly Dao, inviolable.

"For all living beings, for this world, I am willing to fight until my last breath!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"I am the Supreme of this era, and I shall slay all enemies!"

"If I can crush the darkness and liberate all beings, I would not regret dying nine deaths!"

"..."

Shouts and sounds of slaughter shook the Void Realm.

The heavens collapsed, the earth rent asunder, and the sun and moon lost their light.

The starry expanse shattered, and the Great Dao no longer existed.

Both sides fought until even the Great Dao was obliterated.

In the end, the Primal Supreme gave his all, ultimately at the cost of his own Dao being shattered, to Seal the Dark Supreme's Divine Soul deep within the sea of stars; he himself was exhausted and had no choice but to slash his own Dao, cutting off this remnant body to guard this sealed land.

The images shifted and finally froze at the moment the Primal Supreme sealed the source of darkness, before shattering and dissipating.

"So... this was the truth of the past."

Xu Jinhuan suddenly understood, deeply shaken, his eyes full of admiration.

Although he could only see the images of the past, witnessing such a magnificent and earth-shattering battle still made his blood boil, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

As the images dissipated, the Primal power on the Supreme Remnant Body became even denser, flowing like a physical substance.

Under the pressure of this extreme Primal power, the rioting dark shadows outside became increasingly sparse, letting out shrill screams and constantly dissipating like melting snow, appearing as if they were about to be completely suppressed.

"Phew!—"

Hearing the sound of fewer and fewer Black Souls crashing against the barrier, Luo Qingxian let out a long sigh of relief.

"Big Brother Xu, I can finally tell you the truth now."

"That's right, I came in to deliver backup energy to the Supreme Remnant Body. I come from one of the oldest forces in the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, with a Legacy dating back even further than the Primal Supreme.

For hundreds of thousands of years, every time the Primordial Secret Treasury opens, we send someone in to replenish the power of this remnant body and maintain the stability of the Seal."

Saying this, Luo Qingxian paused and continued:

"Actually, this is the true purpose of the Secret Realm opening. Those so-called opportunities to comprehend the Great Dao and compete for treasures are just a cover to let me in."

Luo Qingxian seemed to have been silent for too long and was bursting to speak; her words were shocking as she revealed the startling fact behind the Primordial Secret Treasury.

Hearing these words, Xu Jinhuan was also taken aback.

Dating back even further than the Primal Supreme... wouldn't the Legacy of the lineage behind Luo Qingxian be measured in millions or even tens of millions of years?

"To think a lineage could be passed down for such a vast amount of time, what kind of foundation and Luck would that require?!"

Even for the Holy Lands and great sects known as 'Immortal Dao Lineages', those that have existed for more than two hundred thousand years are already very rare, let alone millions or tens of millions of years.

The transmission of a lineage requires not only a solid foundation but also the blessing of Luck.

When the Heavenly Dao no longer favors them and Luck is low, experts will perish for no reason, the cultivation of younger generations will be repeatedly hindered, and the lineage will often be cut off unknowingly.

Before Xu Jinhuan was born, the Taiyi Holy Land was in this state of low Luck; if not for the Taiyi Old Ancestor still being around, it would likely have fallen apart long ago.

For the lineage behind Luo Qingxian to have been passed down until now, they are either favored by destiny with eternal Luck, or they have long since found a way to transcend the Heavenly Dao and maintain their Luck independently.

Regardless of which it is, its foundation is definitely not something the Taiyi Holy Land can compare to.

"Miss Luo, you..."

However, just as Xu Jinhuan wanted to ask more, the shrieks of the Black Souls outside, which had already quieted down, reappeared.

Roar!!!

The attack of the Black Souls outside returned with a vengeance, and with an increasingly violent momentum!

Countless black shadows charged at the barrier of the Heavenly Palace like madmen, letting out ear-piercing shrieks.

Beneath the Primal remnant body, a concentrated burst of darkness suddenly erupted, staining the Void Realm like ink; the Dark Supreme's Remnant Soul, which had been sealed for hundreds of thousands of years, was actually breaking through the Seal at this moment, attempting to escape!

"Not good! The Primal Supreme's calculations were wrong; the Dark Supreme is going to break the Seal early!"

Luo Qingxian's face turned pale as she recalled some bad things, and she turned to look at Xu Jinhuan, her eyes filled with a plea for help.
