Awakening Daily Intelligence Panel, Grind to Become a True Immortal

"Welcome to the Twins." Long Wuji approached slowly. "Let me introduce you. This is Qin Wang's dark side—we call him 'Night Lord.'"

Xu Xian took a few steps back and secretly activated the seed: "You have indeed joined Hun Dun!"

"Surrender?" Long Wuji laughed. "No, I took the initiative to accept Chaos!" His face began to twist, and black scales appeared under his skin. "Because only in this way can I complete the unfinished work of the Fifth Supreme - breaking the shackles of the Heavenly Rules!"

Xu Xian suddenly understood everything: "You are cultivating a new supreme vessel!"

“Brilliant.” Long Wuji—or rather, the chaotic Long Wuji—nodded approvingly. “Qin Wang is too stubborn, unwilling to fully unleash the power of chaos. So we created ‘Night Lord,’ a pure vessel of chaos.”

He walked towards the crystal coffin and caressed the lid lovingly: "As long as he absorbs the souls of three more Daluo Jinxian, he will be able to wake up."

Xu Xian sneered: "Do you think I will let you succeed?"

"You?" Long Wuji glanced at Xu Xian's dantian with disdain. "Relying on that half-dead seed? Don't be naive."

He snapped his fingers, and seven black crystal pillars lit up simultaneously, sending seven souls screaming silently. Powerful soul power was drawn out and injected into the crystal coffin. The eyelashes of the young "Ye Zun" began to tremble, as if he would wake up at any moment.

Xu Xian knew he couldn't wait any longer, so he activated the seed with all his might. A gray-gold light erupted, transforming into countless roots that pierced Long Wuji. Long Wuji didn't flinch, allowing the roots to penetrate him—but the wounds didn't bleed, only black mist gushed out!
"It's useless." Long Wuji's body gradually turned into mist. "Here, I am immortal."

Xu Xian suddenly changed his tactics, his roots reversing direction and fiercely piercing into the seven black crystal pillars! The pillars shattered, and the seven souls were freed, turning into streams of light and scattering.

"Looking for death!" Long Wuji was furious, and the black mist condensed into a giant claw and slapped down.

Xu Xian had no way to avoid it, and was about to be beaten into a pulp when the crystal coffin suddenly exploded! A pale hand stretched out from the coffin and steadily caught the claw.

"I haven't given you permission to kill him yet." The young man, Ye Zun, slowly stood up, his voice like the grinding of metal. A fragment of the Heaven-Cutting Sword was still stuck in his chest, and black blood oozed out with every word he spoke.

Long Wuji immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Master, please forgive me! You woke up early."

Ye Zun ignored him and turned to Xu Xian. His dark eyes seemed to swallow up all light: "Xu Xian, Senior Brother..."

Xu Xian was shocked: "Do you know me?"

"Of course I know you." "Ye Zun" gave a strange smile. "I am the evil thought that Qin Wang cut out, carrying all his dark memories." He pointed to the fragment on his chest, "Including his jealousy towards you."

Xu Xian was struck by lightning: "Jealous?"

"He's jealous of you being favored by your master and your natural body." Ye Zun's voice was bewitching. "He's even jealous of the way Guan Hui looks at you."

Long Wuji took the opportunity to interrupt: "Master, don't waste your time talking to him. Just devour his soul and you will be completely..."

"Shut up." "Ye Zun" waved his hand, and Long Wuji crashed into the wall like a kite with a broken string. "It's not your turn to teach me what to do."

Xu Xian took the opportunity to observe his surroundings, looking for a way to escape. But "Ye Zun" seemed to see through his thoughts: "Don't bother. This secret room is covered by the rules of the Fifth Supreme. Unless..."

He suddenly groaned and clutched his chest. The fragments of the Heaven-Cutting Sword seemed to be rejecting his body, and the wound continued to widen.

Long Wuji hurriedly crawled over: "Master, you need more souls to stabilize your body! I'll go now"

"It's too late." "Ye Zun" looked up into the void, as if staring at some distant existence, "He's coming."

The entire cave suddenly shook violently, and a crack appeared in the dome. Gray-gold light poured down like a waterfall, dispersing the black fog and withering the soul-devouring moss wherever it passed.

“No——!” Long Wuji roared unwillingly, his body melting like ice and snow in the light.

Ye Zun was surprisingly calm, even revealing a relieved smile: "Finally, I've been waiting for this."

A figure slowly descended from the gap—a figure in a gray-gold robe, with a vertical scar between his brows, holding a complete Sky-Cutting Sword. It was Qin Wang!
Xu Xian was surprised and delighted: "Junior brother!"

Qin Wang's gaze remained fixed on Ye Zun: "I sense your pain."

"Ye Zun" sneered: "Stop pretending. It was you who separated me, wasn't it?"

Qin Wang shook his head. "It wasn't me, it was the Fifth Supreme. When it parasitized my body, it amplified all negative emotions and eventually stripped you away."

He held out his hand: "Come back, we are one."

Ye Zun was silent for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter: "It's too late. I have been completely contaminated by Chaos." He pointed to the fragment of the Sky-Cutting Sword on his chest, "Unless..."

Qin Wang understood, and the Sky-Cutting Sword in his hand suddenly disintegrated, transforming into countless points of light that merged into the fragments on Ye Zun's chest: "Unless we use the complete Sky-Cutting Sword as a guide to restore balance."

The fragments merged with the light points, and Ye Zun's body began to disintegrate. But strangely, the expression on his face became increasingly calm: "So this is what it feels like to be complete."

At the last moment, he looked at Xu Xian: "Be careful. The Star Alliance..."

Before he could finish his words, his body completely dissipated, leaving only a pitch-black seed suspended in the air. Qin Wang reached out to catch the seed and whispered, "I know."

He turned to Xu Xian, a trace of fatigue in his eyes: "Brother, we should go up. Wenquxingjun is in danger."

Xu Xian was shocked: "What danger?"

Qin Wang looked towards the top of the cave: "Long Wuji is just a puppet, the real mastermind behind this is..."

A loud bang interrupted his words, and the entire cave began to collapse! Qin Wang grabbed Xu Xian and cut a passage with his sword: "Let's go!"

As the two of them emerged from the ground, they saw flames rising from the main altar. A familiar figure hovered in mid-air, holding the dying Wenquxingjun in his hands—it was Guanhui, holding the Yin-Yang Questioning Money!

But at this moment, her eyes were dark, and the corner of her mouth was wearing a strange smile that was exactly the same as Long Wuji's.
Gou Hui hovered in the firelight, the God of Literature held in mid-air by the throat, his aged face already turning bluish-purple. Most chillingly, in her hand was the Yin-Yang Coin—the once simple copper coin was now pitch black, the eye pattern on its reverse fully open, spinning eerily! "Gou Hui!" Xu Xian cried out, the seed roots within his dantian uncontrollably erupting, "Release the God of Literature!"

Guan Hui slowly turned her head, her dark eyes locked on Xu Xian. When she spoke, her voice was a hoarse whisper, indistinguishable between male and female: "Xu Xian, Senior Brother." The tone was exactly the same as that of "Ye Zun" in the underground secret room!
Qin Wang held Xu Xian's shoulders and said, "Don't go over there. She's completely under control."

"How is it possible?" Xu Xian was incredulous. "Guan Hui has been with us all this time. When..."

"The Yin-Yang Questioning Coin was a trap from the beginning." Qin Wang's eyes were icy. "The Fifth Supreme refined his own eyes into this copper coin. Anyone who is tested with it will be secretly implanted with a Chaos Seed."

As if to confirm his words, Wenquxingjun suddenly twitched violently. He struggled to pull something out of his sleeve and threw it at Xu Xian with his last bit of strength, "Catch it."

It was a bronze key! As soon as the key left Wenquxingjun's hand, Gouhui suddenly tightened his grip. With a crisp "crack," the old man, who had assisted three generations of Star Alliance leaders, perished instantly!
"Star Lord—!" Xu Xian's eyes were bloodshot as he flew over to catch the key. The moment his fingertips touched it, the key suddenly melted, transforming into a streak of green light that sank into his brow.

A flood of information poured in—the fragments of memory sealed away by Wenquxingjun before his death! Xu Xian witnessed three months ago, when Wenquxingjun was examining the Yin-Yang Questioning Coin, he accidentally discovered a black liquid seeping from the back of the coin. He also witnessed a month ago, when Gaohui was alone in a secret room conversing with the coin. Most terrifying of all, he saw Gaohui soak the coin in a bowl of golden blood late last night, and that blood had come from Xu Xian himself!

"You feed it with my blood?" Xu Xian's voice trembled, and he finally understood why he had been inexplicably weak recently.

Gao Hui—or rather, the being that possessed her body—laughed harshly. "Clever. The blood of the Supreme is most effective in awakening Chaos Consciousness." She stroked the copper coin. "Now, it's time to close the net."

The copper coin suddenly split, one into two, two into four, and in the blink of an eye, the sky was filled with swirling black coins. Eyes opened on the back of each copper coin, looking at Xu Xian and Qin Wang at the same time!
"Be careful!" Qin Wang swung his sword towards the nearest black coins, but the sword tip was blocked by an invisible force. "These copper coins constitute the field of rules!"

Xu Xian tried to mobilize his spiritual power, but found that the energy in his body was rapidly draining away—the black money was absorbing his strength! To make matters worse, the seed in his dantian began to wilt, and the gray-gold light became increasingly weaker.

Gao Hui looked down at the two of them from a high position. "Of the seventy-two high-ranking members of the Star Alliance, forty-nine have already been controlled by the Copper Coins. The rest will soon join them."

As soon as she finished speaking, screams suddenly erupted from all over the main altar. Through the gaps in the black money, Xu Xian saw that his former comrades now had dark eyes and were ruthlessly slaughtering the monks who had not yet been controlled!

"Why?" Xu Xian roared, "Gou Hui, why did you betray us?"

Gou Hui's expression suddenly twisted, and a trace of struggle flashed in his dark eyes: "Brother Xu, save me, there is..."

Her voice suddenly stopped and returned to that hoarse tone: "Noisy insect." She raised her hand and pressed it on the top of her head, as if to completely erase Gao Hui's consciousness.

At the critical moment, Qin Wang suddenly threw the black seed in his hand into the air: "Brother, now!"

Xu Xian's mind was filled with blessing, and he immediately injected all the seed energy in his body into the seed. The seed, doubly nourished, instantly burst into a dazzling light, temporarily suppressing the rotation of the black money!

Gao Hui—or rather, the being controlling her—showed shock for the first time: "Ye Zun's core seed? You actually..."

Qin Wang didn't give it a chance to finish. The Sword of Heaven-cutting flew out of his hand and pierced Gou Hui's heart! The black money hurried back to defend, but shattered the moment it touched the sword.

"No!" Gou Hui screamed and dodged, but the sword still slashed his right shoulder. Black blood gushed out, and after landing on the ground, it transformed into countless tiny black insects, frantically gnawing at the ground.

Xu Xian took the opportunity to step forward and pressed his palm on Guan Hui's forehead: "Get out of her body!"

The information on the bronze key left by Wenquxingjun came into play at this moment—complex runes appeared on Xu Xian's palm, the very "Purifying Heart Mantra" designed to counteract Chaos Possession. Gao Hui let out a scream that was inhuman, and a cloud of black mist gushed from her seven orifices, condensing into a giant eye in the air!

"You will all die!" The eyes let out a deafening roar, and dark beams shot out from the pupils.

Qin Wang dodged before Xu Xian, blocking the blow with his Heaven-Cutting Sword. The beam of light collided with the sword, unleashing a terrifying shockwave. The main altar building collapsed like paper under the force, and the monks engaged in battle in the distance were tossed away like scarecrows.

When the smoke and dust cleared, Xu Xian was horrified to find cracks on the Caitian Sword! Qin Wang's face turned pale, and a trace of black blood oozed from the vertical scar between his eyebrows.

"Junior brother!" Xu Xian hurriedly supported the staggering Qin Wang.

"It's okay." Qin Wang wiped the black blood away. "It's just the backlash of the Fifth Supreme." He looked at the giant eye floating in the air. "We must deal with it first."

The giant eye gathered power once more, and an even more terrifying black light condensed in its pupil. Just as it was about to launch, an unexpected figure suddenly leaped from the ruins and stabbed the back of the eyeball with a sword!
"Gou Hui?!" Xu Xian exclaimed.

At this point, Gou Hui's eyes had regained clarity. Although her face was pale, her attacks were ruthless and precise. Her swordsmanship was surprisingly similar to Qin Wang's, with a gray-gold light swirling around the blade!

The giant eye felt pain, and the black light deviated from its direction, flattening a distant mountain. It spun around angrily, its pupil reflecting Gou Hui's figure: "Traitor!"

Gao Hui sneered: "I have never been yours." She changed the momentum of her sword and actually used the first move of Qin Wang's original "Chaos Sword Technique" - "Return to the Abyss"!
The sword's energy was like a rainbow, and the giant eye couldn't dodge it, and half of it was cut off. It let out a shrill howl, and the remaining part turned into black mist and tried to escape. Qin Wang didn't give it a chance, and the Sword of Heaven Slashing flew out of his hand: "Seal!"

A dazzling light burst forth from the cracks in the sword, pinning the black mist firmly in the air. Seeing this, Xu Xian immediately channeled the seed energy into a cage, cooperating with Qin Wang to complete the seal.

When the last wisp of black mist was gathered, the Sky-Cutting Sword also reached its limit - with a "crack", it broke into two pieces!

Guan Hui stumbled to the ground, leaning weakly against a broken wall. Xu Xian hurried forward to check her injuries, but she pushed him away: "Brother Xu, be careful, there are more than one copper coin."

She coughed up a mouthful of black blood and continued, "While I was being controlled, I saw them plant replicas of the Yin-Yang Questioning Money throughout the Seventeen Realms."

Qin Wang picked up the broken sword, his face solemn. "No wonder the Fifth Supreme was able to recover so quickly. It dispersed its consciousness into countless parts, parasitizing the bodies of cultivators through copper coins."

In the distance, the controlled Star Alliance monks began to retreat like a tide. Xu Xian wanted to give chase, but Qin Wang stopped him: "Don't chase them. The most urgent thing is to find all the copper coins."

Guan Hui suddenly grabbed Xu Xian's hand and said, "Brother, before Wenquxingjun died, he asked me to tell you something." Her voice grew weaker and weaker, "In the deepest part of the Qingyuan Ancient Road, there is the answer left by the Fourth Supreme Being."

After she finished saying this, her body suddenly twitched violently, and black mist seeped out of her seven orifices again!

"Not good!" Qin Wang pressed his palm on the top of Gou Hui's head, "There is still some residual chaotic consciousness!"

Xu Xian hurriedly assisted in suppressing the black mist, only to find it exceptionally stubborn this time. Even more terrifying, his dantian began to swell, as if something was about to burst forth! (End of Chapter)
