Awakening Daily Intelligence Panel, Grind to Become a True Immortal

The stone chamber housing the Purifying Fire Pool opened wide, and the blazing golden flames had turned a strange, dark blue. The three elders guarding the pool collapsed to the ground, their own magical instruments piercing their chests. Within the pool, hundreds of copper coins spun merrily in the flames, creating new copies with each revolution.

Even more terrifying, twelve figures stood by the pool—the very same missing high-ranking officials on Wenquxingjun's list. They all turned their heads, revealing the same eerie smile: "Master Xu, are you coming to participate in the rebirth ceremony?"

Just as Xu Xian was about to strike, he felt a sudden, tearing pain in his dantian. Looking down, he saw the flower's roots throbbing furiously. Little Qin Wang, nestled in the center of the flower, had actually stood up, his tiny hand eagerly pointing toward the bottom of the Pure Fire Pool.

Following the instructions, Xu Xian saw a unique copper coin sinking at the bottom of the pool - it was snow-white, with a flower engraved on the back, exactly the same as the one in Xu Xian's dantian!
“That’s it.”

"Seed of Balance." A familiar voice rang out in his ears. Xu Xian was shocked to find that little Qin Wang had appeared on his shoulder. Although he was only the size of a thumb, the vertical mark between his eyebrows was clearly visible. "Master left a backup plan."

Twelve controlled high-ranking officials rushed forward simultaneously. Little Qin Wang lightly leaped up, waved his hand, and the white copper coin in the Fire Purification Pool broke through the water and landed in Xu Xian's palm.

"Crush it." Xiao Qinwang's voice was calm beyond his appearance. "Quick!"

Xu Xian unleashed his force without hesitation. The instant the white copper coin shattered, the entire pool of pure fire erupted in a dark blue flame, transforming into a fiery dragon that engulfed all the black copper coins. Twelve high-ranking officials let out inhuman screams, their bodies crumbling like sandcastles.

When the last black copper coin turned to ashes, Xiao Qinwang's figure also began to fade. "This is just the beginning." His voice became weaker and weaker. "The will of the Fifth Supreme has penetrated..."

Before he could finish his words, he vanished into thin air. Xu Xian looked inward at his dantian and found that the flower had closed into a bud, seemingly entering a dormant state.

The stone chamber returned to silence, leaving only ashes on the ground as a testament to the shocking event. Xu Xian picked up a fragment of a white copper coin, on which were inscribed tiny words:
[Flowers bloom three times, the Supreme returns]

He looked into the distance, the Starlink array was still bright. But in some unnoticed corner, a new shadow was growing.
By the time the morning bell at the Star Alliance headquarters struck seven, Xu Xian had already stood by the Purifying Fire Pool all night. His fingertips caressed the white copper coin fragment, its cool touch still tinged with a hint of chaotic energy. When Zhou Mu, the pharmacy elder, approached with elixirs, he sighed at the ash-stained hem of his black robe.

"Alliance leader, it's time to change the medicine."

Xu Xian untied his belt, revealing a hideous wound on his waist—the one left by "Xiao Han"'s final counterattack yesterday. The flesh, which should have healed, now glowed a strange green, and upon closer inspection, black threads could be seen wriggling beneath the skin.

Zhou Mu took a deep breath and said, "Chaos Heart-Erosion Poison? This requires the Pure World White Lotus to be effective."

"The white lotus of the Yuheng Realm withered last month." Xu Xian calmly tied his belt back on. "Let's get down to business first. How are the three elders?"

"The soul was completely destroyed." Zhou Mu's voice trembled. "The strangest thing is that this was found in their bodies."

He pulled out a transparent crystal from his sleeve, which contained three black crystals. As soon as Xu Xian took it, the bud in his dantian contracted violently, and he felt a sharp, stabbing pain.

"Chaos Crystal." Xu Xian's pupils shrank slightly. "Only the inner demon of the Daluo Jinxian level can condense it."

Suddenly, a rapid flapping of wings could be heard outside the window. A paper crane, carrying a message, pierced the barrier, landed on the desk, and automatically unfolded. The shadowy figure of the Yuheng Realm's guardian emerged: "Alliance Master, the unconscious Spiritual Pupils have suddenly awakened en masse, but they are now..."

The shadow suddenly twisted, turning into a patch of snowflake noise. The last half sentence sent a chill through Xu Xian's body:

“.They are all painting your eyes!”

Yuheng Realm, Jingxin Pavilion.

Seventeen spiritual pupils sat in a circle, each with a sheet of white paper in front of them. Their empty eye sockets faced the paper, their fingertips dipped in the blood flowing from their eye sockets, and they drew intricate patterns one after another—clearly, an anatomical diagram of Xu Xian's dantian flower!
"It started at the hour of Mao." The garrison commander wiped his sweat and said, "I tried to interrupt, but..."

He lifted up his sleeve and saw a flower-shaped burn on his arm.

Xu Xian approached the nearest person with a spiritual pupil. The young man suddenly looked up, his eye sockets without eyeballs staring straight at him: "He said in the flower that copper coins are just shells."

"Who?" Xu Xian grabbed the boy's wrist. "Who's in the flower?"

The young man smiled strangely and suddenly scratched his forehead with his fingernail. As blood gushed out, all the spiritual pupils chanted in unison:
"When flowers bloom, chaos appears; when fruits ripen, the Supreme Being appears!"

The flower bud in Xu Xian's Dantian suddenly blossomed uncontrollably! A column of gray-gold light shot up into the sky, projecting a star map onto the rooftop—that was the unknown airspace beyond the Seventeen Realms, where a vague egg-shaped outline was slowly rotating.

"The Fifth Supreme's true form," Xu Xian finally understood, "has been hiding outside the Star Chain Formation all along!"

After the beam of light vanished, the spirit pupils collapsed. The garrison commander sniffed for breath, his face pale. "They're all dead."

Xu Xian closed his eyes and sensed that the figure of little Qin Wang in the flower bud had disappeared. Instead, there was a green-black fruit the size of a grain of rice.

In a secret chamber three stories underground within the Star Alliance, Xu Xian placed the white copper coin fragment in the center of a formation. This was the "Myriad Realities Formation," constructed by Wenquxingjun during his lifetime, capable of tracing the past and present lives of objects.

"open!"

As spiritual energy was infused, the fragments levitated, projecting countless fragments of memory. Xu Xian witnessed the Fourth Supreme, at the end of the Primordial Era, cast a white copper coin into the Primordial Chaos. He watched as this copper coin, through thirty-six epochs, perpetually searched for a suitable host. The final scene froze a month ago—at the bottom of the Purifying Fire Pond, the white copper coin silently swapped places with a black copper coin!

"It's been swapped, as expected." Xu Xian's forehead was covered in sweat. "The real white copper coin is now here."

The fruit in his dantian suddenly jumped, and a clear pulling sensation came. Xu Xian followed the sensation to the mountain behind the main altar and found a moss-covered cave entrance in an inconspicuous crevice.

The cave was freezing cold, its walls covered in ice crystals. In the deepest pool, a complete white copper coin lay quietly at the bottom, its surface covered in the same green substance as the wound on Xu Xian's waist.

Just as Xu Xian bent down to scoop it up, the pool suddenly began to boil! Dozens of transparent tentacles burst out of the water, each with a tiny eye at the end.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time." The tentacle murmured like a baby, "Daddy."

Xu Xian was struck by lightning - this sound was exactly the same as the "Ye Zun" in the underground secret room!
Tentacles wrapped around his limbs, icy cold piercing his bones. Even more terrifying, the wound on his waist began to resonate with the tentacles, and black threads spread towards his heart like a living thing.

At this critical moment, the fruit in his dantian cracked. A ray of gray-gold light shot out, transforming into the shadow of Qin Wang: "Brother, swallow the white copper coin!"

Xu Xian gritted his teeth and dove to the bottom of the pool, letting the tentacles pierce his shoulder blade. The moment his fingertips touched the copper coin, all the tentacles stiffened simultaneously. He took the opportunity to stuff the copper coin into his mouth. The moment he swallowed it, the entire pool froze into ice!

Qin Wang's shadow put his hand on Xu Xian's forehead and said, "Now, look carefully."

A sealed memory unfolded in Xu Xian's mind: The Fourth Supreme Being created two copper coins, white representing life and black representing death. The Fifth Supreme Being was the product of the accidental fusion of these two coins! "Therefore, the method of balance..." Xu Xian suddenly understood.

"Control both coins at the same time." The shadow began to dissipate. "But be careful with the fruit. It has already..."

Before he could finish his words, the shadow was suddenly pulled back into the fruit. Xu Xian looked inward at his Dantian and was horrified to find that on the surface of the dark green fruit, a face identical to Qin Wang's had emerged, except that the vertical mark between his eyebrows was blood red.

"Don't listen to him." The "Qin Wang" in the fruit opened his eyes and spoke like countless people at once, "I am the real one."

Xu Xian abruptly cut off his inner vision, cold sweat soaking through his heavy shirt. Now he faced a terrible choice: which side should he believe?
Seven days later, the Star Alliance convened a reconstruction conference. Representatives from various worlds gathered at the main hall, but Xu Xian was nowhere to be seen. As everyone debated, the entire venue was suddenly enveloped by a gray-golden light!

"Everyone, please listen carefully."

Xu Xian's voice echoed from all directions. The representatives were surprised to find that a miniature flower of light appeared in their palms, with a thumb-sized shadow of Xu Xian sitting in the center of the flower.

"After investigation, the Fifth Supreme's corruption has permeated the Seventeen Realms." Each shadow said in unison, "Today, I will reveal the truth."

All the phantoms waved their hands at the same time, and images began to play on the light screen: from the creation of the first copper coin to the accidental fusion of two copper coins; from the birth of the fifth supreme being to how it parasitized in the shadow of the Star Chain Array.

The most shocking part was the last part—it showed the scene at the venue right then and there! Every representative was wrapped in invisible black lines, and at the end of these black lines was Long Wuji, sitting in the first seat!

"Alliance Leader Dragon?" the representative of the Tianxuan Realm exclaimed in shock.

Long Wuji's smile froze. He slowly stood up, spiderweb-like black lines appearing beneath his skin. "I wanted to wait until the fruit was ripe before taking action."

Chaos erupted in the venue! Delegates fled in all directions, only to discover the exit had already been sealed by a barrier. Long Wuji's body melted like wax, revealing a tangle of black threads within. These threads precisely pierced the light flowers in everyone's palms!

"It's useless, Xu Xian." Long Wuji's voice changed to the tone of the Chaos Infant Spirit, "The fruit in your Dantian has already..."

"It's ripe." Xu Xian's true form finally appeared, holding the dark green fruit in his hand. "But do you know what's inside?"

The fruit suddenly cracked, and a gray-gold figure soared into the sky—it was the complete Qin Wang! He held the newly condensed Heaven-Cutting Sword in hand, pointing the blade directly at Long Wuji: "I am your true nemesis."

Long Wuji let out a piercing scream, and black lines shot towards Qin Wang like a rainstorm. Qin Wang didn't dodge or evade, but with a slight twist of his sword, all the black lines suddenly reversed direction, wrapping Long Wuji himself into a cocoon!
"Chaos and order are mutually reinforcing and mutually exclusive." Qin Wang's voice echoed throughout the venue. "You are taking advantage of the shadow of the Star Chain Array to survive, but you don't know that the Array itself is the biggest trap."

He looked at Xu Xian: "Brother, now!"

The white copper coin Xu Xian had swallowed took effect at this moment! Black lines, the opposite of Qin Wang's, appeared all over his body, and he pressed his hands to the ground. The floor of the entire Star Alliance headquarters suddenly became transparent, revealing the vast star map below—the seventeen realms had shifted positions at some point, forming a massive refining formation!

"No!" Long Wuji's cocoon struggled frantically, "This is..."

"The Guixu Formation." Qin Wang pointed his sword downwards. "It's specially prepared for you."

Gray-gold light and pitch-black energy intertwined into a web, enveloping the cocoon layer by layer. When the light reached its peak, Xu Xian and Qin Wang uttered the same word simultaneously:

“Refine!”

A chilling scream emanated from within the cocoon, but soon fell silent. When the light faded, only a half-white, half-black copper coin remained, slowly spinning in perfect balance.

Qin Wang reached out to catch the copper coin, but his body began to become transparent: "Brother, the Fifth Supreme is just the beginning. There is more outside the universe..."

He was unable to finish his words before his figure vanished again. The balancing copper coin fell into Xu Xian's palm, becoming a mark on the inside of his wrist.

On the observatory, Xu Xian gazed up at the starry sky alone. The mark on his wrist grew slightly hot. The flower in his dantian had withered, leaving behind a single turquoise seed. He knew the battle was far from over—but at least for now, the Seventeen Realms had enjoyed a brief moment of peace.

On the thirty-seventh day after the balance coin was branded on Xu Xian's wrist, the "Tian Yan Instrument" on the top floor of the Star Alliance Library suddenly activated on its own. When the elders on duty arrived, they saw that the seventeen crystals representing the various realms on the bronze star disk had all floated into the air, forming a strange and unprecedented pattern.

"Notify the leader immediately!" The elder's voice startled the blue phoenix perched outside the window.

When Xu Xian entered the library, the crystals were vibrating wildly. A wisp of black energy emerged from each crystal, connecting with each other and eventually converging in the center of the star disk to form a vague outline of a baby—exactly like the Chaos Infant Spirit!
"It's not dead?" Zhou Mu, who was accompanying him, took a breath.

Xu Xian pressed the burning copper coin mark on his wrist. "It was only the carrier that died." He pointed at the black air flowing in the crystal. "These are the origins of it that have been dispersed throughout the seventeen realms."

As if to confirm his words, the baby's silhouette suddenly opened its eyes. It wasn't just one pair, but a dense mass of compound eyes covering the entire surface of the shadow! All eyes turned towards Xu Xian simultaneously, emitting overlapping voices:
"seed."

The Tianyan Instrument exploded with a bang! The flying crystal fragments drew a bloody mark on Xu Xian's cheek. Even more bizarrely, the blood that fell to the ground turned into tiny black insects, writhing and crawling in all directions.

"The true fire of purification!" Zhou Mu pinched his fingers and ignited the flames, but saw those black insects swimming happily in the fire, and they grew bigger and bigger.

The copper coin mark on Xu Xian's wrist suddenly lit up, and a gray-gold halo spread out. Black insects, upon contact with the halo, screamed like infants before disintegrating into smoke.

"Alliance leader, look!" Zhou Mu pointed to the ground.

The green smoke condensed into a line of ancient characters:

[On the day when the three flowers gather at the top of the head and the five energies converge at the origin]

Xu Xian's pupils shrank slightly - this was the last sentence of the "Chaos Tribulation Sutra", which recorded the conditions for the birth of the Supreme Complete Body!

That night, Xu Xian was examining the relics of Wenquxingjun in a secret chamber. The copper coin imprint grew hotter, and when he touched an ancient bronze mirror, ripples suddenly appeared on the surface.

"Junior brother?" Xu Xian called tentatively.

What appeared in the mirror was not Qin Wang, but a vast sea of ​​stars. Floating within this sea of ​​stars was a crystal coffin, and inside lay the fifteen or sixteen-year-old "Night Lord," the fragment of the Heaven-Cutting Sword that had been embedded in his chest now gone! (End of Chapter)
