Daotian brought Chu Tian and followed that will.
They pierced through the void and arrived in a dark world.
"So this is where it is. I searched for over a year and couldn't find it. It's truly hidden," Daotian said as he put Chu Tian down.
"Without me as the key, you wouldn't have found it even if you searched for a hundred years," a disdainful voice emanated from the black sphere.
Daotian smiled slightly and looked at it.
"Oh? Since we've already arrived, do you still have any use?"
As soon as he spoke, the black sphere, formed by the will, clearly trembled and retreated rapidly.
Chu Tian was also stunned and looked at Daotian, thinking: Is this old guy going to cross the river and burn the bridge?
This is good. Although the remaining origin is less, it's still a great tonic.
"Alas... your courage is just like your master's, you can't even take a joke!"
Daotian chuckled, and Chu Tian was disappointed. The will of the Holy Spirit Realm breathed a sigh of relief.
"Is... is that you...?" Suddenly, a weak voice resounded throughout the black world.
"Old man, you're not dead yet!" Daotian's gaze turned towards the depths of the darkness.
Chu Tian was stunned and also looked in that direction, but he could see nothing.
Divine sense was useless here.
"Hmph!" A snort came from that direction, and there was no further speech.
Daotian smiled and stopped engaging, not bothering to respond.
Without paying any further attention to the will of the Holy Spirit Realm, he took Chu Tian and shot towards another direction.
Everything around was pitch black, and Chu Tian had no idea what he was seeing.
A moment later, Chu Tian spotted a bright point of light in the distance.
In this entirely dark world, that single light was incredibly dazzling.
In the blink of an eye, Daotian brought him close.
"You go there yourself!" Daotian stopped his movement from afar.
"What is that?" Chu Tian asked.
"You'll know when you get there!"
Driven by curiosity, Chu Tian, dragging his exhausted body, endured the piercing pain from every bone.
He walked step by step towards the luminous object.
Only then did he discover that the luminous object was actually a stone about his size.
Chu Tian stared at the stone, circling it.
He thought: It looks like an ordinary stone! The only unusual thing is that it emits light.
Did Daotian go through all this trouble, forcing the will of the Holy Spirit Realm, just to bring this stone?
Chu Tian frowned, his heart filled with confusion.
In his bewilderment, Chu Tian extended his right hand and gently touched the giant stone.
At that moment, Chu Tian felt a strange sensation, which penetrated from his right hand and instantly flowed through his entire body.
Simultaneously, the scene before him changed.
The surrounding light vanished, and the distant darkness disappeared without a trace.
The giant stone before him transformed into a skeletal frame radiating colorful light.
This instantaneous transformation startled Chu Tian.
No matter how bold one was, such a sudden change would surely cause an adrenaline rush.
"You've finally arrived!" The skeleton's eye sockets suddenly blazed with colorless flames.
Its voice, however, was completely different from its terrifying appearance; it was gentle.
"Who are you?" Chu Tian asked, looking around doubtfully.
A faint white mist floated beneath his feet, and around him, numerous immortal mountains seemed to hover above the mist.
This scene... bore a striking resemblance to the legendary immortal realm.
"My surname is Jiang," the skeleton surprisingly grinned.
It looked like it was smiling, but it sent chills down Chu Tian's spine.
"Where is this place?" Chu Tian asked.
"This place is within the stone before you. Everything here can also be called an illusion.
The scenery that has been conjured is a place that some people yearn for their entire lives... the Divine Realm." the skeleton replied.
The Divine Realm...?
Chu Tian's eyes widened as he looked around again.
Although it claimed to be an illusion, this Divine Realm was indeed beautiful.
"This is merely the place I once lived, a manifestation of a trace of my will. The true Divine Realm is vast and boundless... but now..."
It paused its speech at this point.
Chu Tian was filled with surprise, imagining how wonderful it would be to bring everyone he cared about to live in this Divine Realm in the future.
However... he wondered in which universe the so-called Divine Realm was located.
With the Star Shattering Mech, traversing the universe was no longer a dream.
Eventually, after finishing all his current affairs,
he was determined to take everyone to travel to that legendary land.
"You said earlier... 'You've finally arrived.' What did you mean? Did you know I would come?"
Chu Tian snapped back to attention and asked the skeletal frame before him.
It was as if the skeleton had been waiting for him, and had waited here until only bones remained!
"Of course. The moment that little fellow outside arrived, I knew... the person I was waiting for had come."
Chu Tian was rendered speechless after hearing this.
It referred to Daotian as a "little fellow."
Considering that Chu Tian suspected Daotian was definitely an ancient monster,
being called a "little fellow" now was truly...
"Then why were you waiting for me?" Chu Tian continued to ask.
"The reason is very simple, because you are the Ancient Waste Body!"
Ancient Waste Body again. Chu Tian was speechless.
Is it necessary to remind me so often?
I admit I'm a waste, but do you really need to do this?
"Of course, 'Ancient Waste Body' is a term used by later generations. In our era, it had a very imposing name."
"What?" Chu Tian inquired.
"Chaos Divine Body!" the skeleton replied.
"Chaos Divine Body?" Chu Tian's eyes lit up. The name did sound very impressive.
"Alas, the problem lies with the word 'Chaos.'"
"Why?" Chu Tian was startled.
"Chaos... the origin of all things, all things return to chaos... Chaos is a natural vessel..." The skeleton launched into a long explanation, detailing the characteristics of chaos.
"Stop, stop, stop... Don't say any more. You just want to tell me that even though the name is imposing, it's still a waste, right?"
Chu Tian directly interrupted its speech.
"Yes... and no!"
When Chu Tian heard "yes," he almost rolled his eyes.
But upon hearing the latter three words, he immediately perked up.
This old fellow couldn't possibly have waited for him for so long just to mock him for having a waste physique, could he?
"Just tell me directly, what do you want me for?" Chu Tian no longer wanted to dwell on his physique.
"I've been waiting for you to hand over something." the skeleton said.
"What thing?" Chu Tian asked.
This time, the skeleton did not speak.
It was observed that the colorful flames in its eye sockets instantly floated out.
Chu Tian instinctively took a step back.
But the flames, after flying out, did not approach Chu Tian.
Instead, they landed beside the skeleton and slowly transformed into a human-like form.
However, it was merely an outline, with no discernible facial features.
Following this, it waved its hand.
The skeletal frame standing there transformed into a stream of light.
It lunged directly towards Chu Tian.
At this moment, Chu Tian desperately wanted to resist.
But his entire body was in immense pain, and even the druidic transformation could not be used.
