Starting with being handed over to the Imperial Concubine, building a family with a thousand-year hi

The ability to master the power of origin is an unparalleled opportunity that countless Great Sages and Saint Realm experts dream of, and it is priceless.

Even Su Mu, who was experienced and composed, had a glint of intense fervor in his eyes upon hearing this.

What the other party said was absolutely true.

When Su Mu was cultivating in the Star Palace, he heard about an ancient secret. Long ago, there was an unparalleled genius who killed the direct descendants of the eight great holy races, extracted their primordial essence blood, and forcibly seized control of a primordial power, shocking the entire universe.

It was precisely because of that one person's actions that the eight great holy clans were thoroughly enraged.

That prodigy, his sect, his clansmen, and all his associated forces were all slaughtered by the eight holy clans in a joint operation, leaving no one alive.

Since then, no race in the universe has dared to imitate it.

It's not that I don't want to, it's that I don't dare.

The eight holy races are using a bloody massacre to proclaim to the entire universe that the majesty of the holy races is inviolable and their primordial power is not to be coveted.

Su Mu's gaze fell on the white jade bottle on the corner of the table, and he understood.

The essence of wood, containing both supreme opportunity and supreme killing intent, must be hidden within it.

The opportunity may be extraordinary, but the risks can be even more deadly.

Once this drop of essence blood is refined, one will be completely on the opposite side of the eight great holy clans, and may be hunted down by the entire clan at any time.

Ordinary cultivators, upon hearing of such a price, would have been too frightened to even attempt it and would have retreated in fear.

But Su Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

"The majesty of the Eight Great Holy Clans?"

"Heh, I'm afraid it's not that simple."

Su Mu had already seen through the trickery.

That former prodigy only plundered a single essence of blood; in principle, the only person responsible should be the corresponding holy race.

Why did it ultimately lead to the eight great holy clans joining forces and sparing no expense to exterminate them?

The only answer is that the so-called path of fusion of origins is likely feasible!

Once someone successfully merges multiple origins, they can transcend the bloodline constraints of the eight great holy races and give birth to supreme power that surpasses the eight origins, completely shaking the absolute position of the holy races that has ruled the universe for billions of years.

Therefore, they must nip all possibilities in the bud and eliminate all potential threats!

Having figured this out, a hint of madness flickered in Su Mu's eyes as he looked at the jade bottle.

The bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish!

The pursuit by the eight holy clans is certainly dangerous, but this opportunity is enough to make people risk everything!

In today's universe, the eight holy races sit at the very top of the pyramid, with all races bowing down and all living beings submitting, and no one daring to disobey them in the slightest.

In the past, Su Mu's cultivation level was low and his vision was limited, so he was unable to touch upon the conflicts at the top level of the universe.

However, as his cultivation level skyrocketed and he rose against all odds, the day he would face the eight great holy clans was drawing ever closer.

He, Su Mu, was born with a proud spirit and never submitted to any person or power.

The conflict with the eight holy clans was already destined and unavoidable.

Since we are bound to clash sooner or later, why should we fear the other side's threats and pursuit?

Avoiding problems solves nothing; only by facing difficulties head-on and breaking through with force can one defy fate and change one's destiny.

Without further hesitation, Su Mu reached out to pick up the jade bottle.

If he can inherit the will of this Wood Clan madman and fuse the power of the eight origins, his combat power will one day completely surpass the shackles of the eight holy clans!

Just then, the illusory image in mid-air began to dim and become transparent little by little, and the fluctuations of spiritual energy became weaker and weaker.

"Those who come after."

"The moment you chose to devour my essence, you should have known the fate that awaited you."

"I failed, and I will regret it for the rest of my life. I hope you will succeed."

After uttering those two words of unwilling defiance, the illusory figure vanished without a trace.

Su Mu raised his hand and opened the white jade bottle. A pure, vast, and vibrant aura of the wood's essence instantly surged out, filling the entire secret room.

This is the original essence blood of a half-step Great Saint Realm expert, containing terrifying energy far exceeding that of ordinary Saint Realm treasures.

"My physique is now comparable to the fourth level of the Primordial Body. I wonder if I can withstand the tempering and erosion of this power."

Su Mu pondered to himself, trying to figure out a method to refine it.

Suddenly!

A mysterious, pitch-black stream of light suddenly shot out from the depths of the jade bottle, moving at incredible speed. It instantly pierced through Su Mu's brow and entered his sea of ​​consciousness!

"not good!"

Su Mu was startled and instantly became alert.

He had already been on guard, but the opponent was a remnant of a half-step Great Saint realm soul, far surpassing his current level, and he had no way to resist.

In an instant, a wisp of remnant soul hidden within the essence blood of the master of the secret realm suddenly erupted, heading straight for Su Mu's soul and launching an unparalleled possession technique!

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Arrogant, cold, and obsessive laughter exploded in Su Mu's mind.

"Boy, I foresaw that failing to merge with the origin would inevitably arouse the suspicion and fear of the other holy races. Therefore, I left behind a wisp of my natal soul, allowing Uncle Mu to carry me through the universe as a backup plan, all for the sake of seizing another body and being reborn today!"

This person's deep cunning and superb acting skills are astonishing.

When he was taking photos and giving his self-narration, his emotions, tone, and expression were flawless, completely deceiving Su Mu.

Despite Su Mu's utmost caution and attention to detail, he ultimately made a careless mistake.

Under normal circumstances, Su Mu would have summoned the Apocalypse Puppet to scout ahead and ensure everything was in order. But this time, alone in the secret realm with such an opportunity before him, he ultimately let his guard down a little.

Relaxing doesn't mean defeat!

Back then, when he was possessed by a powerful member of the Three-Eyed Clan, he was still able to turn the tide even in the face of adversity, and he can do the same today!

Just as the power of the Great Sage's remnant soul was about to erode and devour Su Mu's natal soul, the power of the system in the dark suddenly awakened and erupted!

An endless, suppressive force swept across the entire sea of ​​consciousness, domineering, cold, and unsolvable.

Immediately following, the originally arrogant and sinister roar of the remnant soul instantly transformed into extreme terror and despair.

"Impossible! This power is not something you could possess! No... impossible... I'm not reconciled!"

The heart-wrenching, desperate screams abruptly ceased.

The remnant soul of the Great Sage, left behind by the master of the secret realm for countless ages, was completely obliterated by the power of the system, leaving not even a trace behind.

After completely eliminating the threat of the remnant soul of the master of the secret realm possessing him, Su Mu's tense mind finally relaxed slightly, and he secretly exhaled a breath of turbid air.

Fortunately, the system provided a safety net; otherwise, what seemed like an incredible opportunity today would most likely have turned into a fatal dead end.

crunch--

Just then, the door to the secret room was gently pushed open.

Su Mu suddenly looked up, his gaze sharpening as he saw the puppet steward, Mu Bo, slowly walking in.

"Oops!"

Su Mu's brows furrowed suddenly, and his expression instantly became extremely serious.

He was so focused on dealing with the crisis of possession in his sea of ​​consciousness that he completely forgot that there was a top-level puppet guarding outside the door!

This is a natal puppet personally crafted and kept close to the body by a Wood Clan expert at the half-step Great Saint Realm!

His true strength and foundation far surpass those of the Apocalypse Puppet under his command!

With this thought in mind, Su Mu quietly circulated his spiritual energy, his body tensed to the limit, ready to fight at any moment.

As long as the opponent has not truly stepped into the Great Saint Realm, with his current powerful physical body at the fourth level of the Primordial Chaos Body, he may not be without the power to fight!

The anticipated fierce battle did not break out.

thump!
