“Gift?” Hearing the Primordial Immortal Pagoda’s words, Mu Chen’s eyes flickered with excitement.


With a smile, the blurred silhouette waved his hand and the surrounding space changed. In the end, it was akin to an ancient starry sky with countless flickering stars.


The dark-golden mist in the space was mysterious and gave out an immortal aura. Evidently, all of it was Immortal Origin.


“Although you’ve become the new owner of the Primordial Immortal Body, it’s impossible for you to bring out its full power.” The blurred silhouette commented.


Mu Chen nodded his head at those words. Although he managed to command the Primordial Immortal Body in the earlier fight, he was like an outsider and not completely fused with the Primordial Immortal Body yet.


He wanted to control the Primordial Immortal Body like the Immortal Golden Body, but for some reason, he felt a barrier between them.


“That’s because you’ve not shed your mortal physique to link with the Primordial Immortal Body. So it’s naturally impossible for you to unleash its might.” The blurred silhouette smiled as he continued, “You’re lacking the most important step.


“Refine your physique to immortality to have a perfect fusion with the Primordial Immortal Body.” The blurred figure replied.


Mu Chen’s heart trembled. He had once cultivated his physique, so he knew how difficult it was to obtain an Immortal Physique. It was at a level that even a Saint Heavenly Sovereign would have great difficulty cultivating.


With an Immortal Physique, Mu Chen could confront with his physique alone, even if he faced a Saint Heavenly Sovereign.


“Senior, how should I refine my physique to immortality?” Mu Chen asked with his eyes blazing.


The blurred silhouette smiled. “Simple. You naturally require the Immortal Origin to cultivate the Immortal Golden Body. With so much Immortal Origin here, a portion of it is meant for the new owner to refine his body.”


Hearing those words, Mu Chen instantly rejoiced. Although the blurred silhouette put it in simple words, he knew how great of a difficulty it was. The Immortal Origin was something that could only be obtained from the Immortal Golden Body, and trying to gather such a massive amount would require extraction from countless Immortal Golden Bodies. If it wasn’t the Primordial Immortal Pagoda collecting them, trying to refine his physique to immortality was simply a pipedream.


“But refining the body to immortality is practically a reconstruction. The pain is also indescribable. If you can’t take it, it will take ages for you in the future to achieve it.” The blurred silhouette warned.


With a sharp gaze, Mu Chen replied, “How long will it take to refine the body?”


With a smile, the blurred figure stretched out its hand. “Five years is a safe estimation.”


Mu Chen couldn’t help taking a cold breath. Wouldn’t that mean that he had to stay in the Primordial immortal Pagoda for the next five years? It was fine if he was elsewhere, but this was the Ancient Maha Clan. If he stayed too long, he was afraid that the Ancient Maha Clan might try something.


Thus, his brows were locked together.


“You don’t have to worry about time. Didn’t you notice the difference between here and outside?” The blurred silhouette reminded with a smile.


With that reminder, Mu Chen’s face changed and looked at the starry sky in shock. After a brief moment later, he replied with a solemn tone, “The time flow here is different?”


Nodding his head, the blurred silhouette replied, “In the past, the Immortal Emperor slowed the time down in this place. Staying five years here is equivalent to half a year outside.”


Hearing those words, Mu Chen felt relieved, since the time was acceptable for him. However, he was also shocked about the method used by the strongest powerhouse of the Great Thousand World in ancient times.


“Then, please help me construct my Immortal Physique.” Mu Chen respectfully cupped his fists.


This was an excellent opportunity for him, since an Immortal Physique was something unimaginable, even for Saint Heavenly Sovereigns. With such a powerful physique, he would be able to rank amongst the top in terms of endurance.


Nodding his head, the blurred silhouette accepted Mu Chen’s bow and waved his hand. Boundless purplish-golden radiance swept over and formed into a cauldron.


Opening its mouth, the blurred silhouette blew blazing flames that enveloped the cauldron. The temperature of it even caused space to distort.


“Enter the cauldron.” The blurred silhouette said.


Looking at the crimson cauldron, Mu Chen’s brows uncontrollably twitched as he felt a stinging pain on his body from the terrifying temperature. He could only imagine how much pain he would have to endure.


However, Mu Chen wasn’t a weak person. Thus, he no longer hesitated and flew into the cauldron.


The instant he entered, his clothes and hair were reduced to ashes. He was naked, and his body started to turn red with signs of melting.


Along with that, an unimaginable pain swept over.


Mu Chen’s body trembled from the pain, but he guarded his consciousness. He knew that if his consciousness was burnt, then refining his body would have failed.


He has walked between life and death ever since he left the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy to achieve what he had today… And now, his dream was finally within his reach, so he had to persist no matter what.


An unwavering resolution flickered in Mu Chen’s eyes before he gradually closed them with his body covered in blood, allowing the high temperature to envelop him.


When the blurred silhouette saw this scene, he nodded his head, since the one chosen by the Primordial Immortal Body had to be someone with a strong will.


“This is the most important step, I hope that you can pull through.” The blurred silhouette muttered as strands of Immortal Origin fell into the cauldron, fusing into Mu Chen’s body as it melted.



The atmosphere was being suppressed outside the Primordial Immortal Pagoda.


The Elders of the Ancient Maha Clan looked at the pagoda and whispered, “Why hasn’t that kid come out? Does he intend to hide in the pagoda?”


Maha Tian’s expression was indifferent, as if he was resting. Only his lips moved along with a detached voice that resounded, “We will wait no matter how long he hides.”


The Elders inwardly nodded their heads. Their Ancient Maha Clan has guarded the Primordial Immortal Body for tens of thousands of years. So it’s impossible for them to allow Mu Chen to take it away.


“I want to see how long can he hide… As long as he appears, he will have to obediently hand the Primordial Immortal Body over!”


Outside the Primordial Immortal Pagoda, Maha Tian and Qing Yanjing’s faces were unchanged as they waited for time to pass. Under the patience of the two Saint Heavenly Sovereigns, the spectators did not leave. Everything that happened here was being spread throughout the Great Thousand World at an unprecedented speed.


The two Ancient Clans that stood in a confrontation might break into a battle at any time. Thus, everyone had directed their attention to the Maha Continent.



As time gradually flowed, three months have passed.


Over the past three months, the number of people that gathered in the Primordial Immortal City has increased instead of decreased, along with the news spreading out.


After all, two Ancient Clans standing in a confrontation was too shocking, and the last force that fought with the Ancient Maha Clan was the Endless Fire Territory…


But back then, Maha Tian was defeated by the Flame Emperor and had to retract his ambition. But this time, no one knew who would be able to restrain this powerhouse that once challenged the Flame Emperor.


But regardless of anything, the battle today would surely be earth-shattering.



As the atmosphere in the pagoda grew tense, the purplish-golden starry sky distorted under the high temperature.


Counting the time, roughly three years have passed in here.


Within those three years, the fire in the cauldron never stopped.


The purplish-golden flames enveloped a silhouette in the cauldron. It did not have any flesh, only a skeletal frame was quietly sitting there.


Under the three years of intense refinement, this skeletal frame had become a purplish-golden color that permeated traces of an immortal aura.


Outside the cauldron, the blurred silhouette suddenly opened its eyes. If it hadn’t sensed the strand of vitality hidden within that skeletal frame, he would’ve thought that Mu Chen had died from the flames.


“Not bad…” The blurred silhouette praised. Mu Chen’s willpower exceeded his expectations over the past three years. If it was someone else, they would’ve lost their consciousness from the pain.


“Now, it will be the reconstruction of the flesh to obtain immortality.”
