One of the old men was dressed in black brocade. His gaunt face sported a goatee and his eyes were like dark pools of inky blackhole that would draw anyone in. His name was Shen Suanzi, master of the Heaven Mystery Pavilion.
The other person wearing a linen shirt looked like an ordinary old man with nothing eye-catching about him. However, this old man possessed a deep and profound mind that even Shen Suanzi had to be careful around him. His name was Ye Xuan, head of the Ye Clan who was as prominent as the Murong Clan in the Eastern Wasteland.
Ye Xuan smiled at Shen Suanzi and in a clear voice said, “Although the Murong Clan tried to hide it, I could still sense a terrifying power in their clan and the day their clan was destroyed, the destructive power appeared again. This is really a cause for concern. Do you know what that is?”
The Ye Clan and the Murong Clan were equally famous, but in the past few thousand years, the momentum of the Murong Clan had surpassed the Ye Clan. It was only natural for the Ye Clan to pay close attention to their rival and so was able to detect something out of the ordinary.
Shen Suazi’s expression was impassive. “Brother Xuan, do you still want to know if I tell you, you won’t be able to handle the power?”
Ye Xuan was startled. He furrowed his brows and stared deeply at Shen Suanzi. He had thought that Shen Suanzi would give him some perfunctory replies so he was surprised at how easily he was about to give up the answer. He knew there was a risk he would not be able to handle the power but it was overshadowed by his burning desire to get a hold of that power.
“I do and I hope you can answer me honestly,” Ye Xuan said. Suddenly, they both heard the sound of lightning coming from some distance away. Soon, a man with azure eyes, galloped through thunder and lightning, and appeared in front of them.
“Brother Lei Bao, you’ve come too,” said Ye Xuan with a raised eyebrow.
“How could I not come when something this big had happened?” Lei Bao swept his eyes across the ruin that was Murong’s manor. “The Murong Clan have been getting more and more arrogant to the extent they had plans to suppress the other Wisdom Elites. I was planning to show them who’s the real boss but now this has happened unexpectedly.” He paused for a while and said, “The Eastern Wasteland will definitely descend into chaos if we don’t find out who the perpetrators are.” Then he looked at Ye Xuan, waiting for him to say something.
“The Murong Clan is not the only victim. On the way here, I noticed the Demon Emperor’s and his subordinates’ aura had disappeared too. I fear they have ended up the same way as the Murong Clan,” said Ye Xuan.
The five Wisdom Elites in the Eastern Wasteland symbolizes the five powerhouses in the area and it was to anyone’s shock how two of them could be eliminated just like that.
Shen Suanzi closed his eyes and said, “The perpetrators are from another dimension.”
“Another dimension?” Lei Bao’s eyes flashed. “Could it be the Eldritch who had come again?”
Shen Suanzi shook his head. “No, they’re not the Eldritch. However, this might be beyond us. Are you sure the two of you really want to know?” He said hesitantly.
“The fact that they’re from another dimension gives you all the more reason to not ignore this matter. After all, you’re the leader of the fourth dimension,” said Ye Xuan.
“He’s right! Could it be anything more serious than when the fourth dimension was about to break apart. You’ve gotta show them what you’ve got!” Lei Bao said loudly.
The Eldritch had waged war on the fourth dimension before. At that time, under the catastrophe, all the beings were turned to ashes, and the fourth dimension was near the edge of destruction. At a critical juncture, the Heaven Mystery rose from the sky and overnight, the old pavilion master became enlightened from the destruction which caused his combat power to skyrocket, and successfully drove the Eldritch away.
Later, he stole heavenly secrets, seized good luck, and led the rapid rise of the fourth dimension. However, after the catastrophe, the old pavilion master also suffered indelible damage, coupled with the backlash of heaven, he finally died. For this reason, although Heaven Mystery Pavilion likes to be low-key, it nonetheless enjoys a very special position in the fourth dimension.
“Actually, this matter has something to do with the Origins of the third dimension,” said Shen Suanzi.
“Origins of the third dimension?” Even hearing Shen Suanzi mentioning that was enough to make their heart beat wildly. They could vaguely sense that this Origin thing would prove to be very beneficial to them in the future. “What is that?” They asked with anticipation.
“In addition to plundering the resources of seven dimensions, the ultimate goal of the Eldritch is to swallow the Origins of all dimensions and become the dictator of all seven dimensions! Now that the third dimension is broken, the Origins of the dimension was lost, and a part of it had flown into the fourth dimension, which was acquired by the Murong Clan. In fact, I only knew about this after their clan was destroyed,” Shen Suanzi said.
“What? The Origins of the third dimension was acquired by the Murong Clan?”
“No wonder they could rise up through the ranks so quickly. Anyone would have if
they had come into possession of a heaven-defying opportunity!”
“The Eldritch wants to rob all Origins of the seven dimensions…If they really did it, then they would become unimaginably powerful! What wild ambition they have.”
“The Murong Clan is useless! How could they let beings from another dimension steal the Origins of the third dimension?”
“Shen Suanzi, is there any way we can get it back?”
They must get it back. It was not everyday any of them could come across an Origin of a dimension. Lei Bao and Ye Xuan felt excited after thinking about it. This was definitely the road to the strongest, with the power to control the world!
Ye Xuan quickly curbed his greed, and said with extreme caution, “How was it possible for the Murong Clan to be annihilated when they have the Origins of the third dimension in their hands?”
“The other party must have had an Origins too,” said Shen Suanzi.
“What? They have one too?” Lei Bao and Ye Xuan were shocked and envious. With so many Origins of dimensions, what a fortune it must be.
“Do we have a chance to seize it?” Lei Bao asked.
“Well…”
Lei Bao and Ye Xuan looked at each other, their eyes flickered, and they could not help but feel ecstatic. It looked like they had a chance! The value would be incalculable if they really got their hand on an Origins of a dimension.
“Tell us, Shen Suanzi, what do we need to do?” Lei Bao asked.
“Today, the three of us are the strongest in the Eastern Wasteland. The whole fourth dimension will belong to us once we get an Origins on our hands,” said Ye Xuan.
“Fine, things had already progressed to this point. There’s no use keeping it under wraps anymore.To be honest, the Heaven Mystery Pavilion had cultivated a kind of bug, called the Origins Devouring Bug. This bug can sneak into heaven without being noticed. It can even devour the Origins of Wisdom. We can sneak this buy into where the Origins of the dimension is so it could devour the Origins of Wisdom,” Shen Suazi paused before continuing, “and if we refine this bud, the Origins of Wisdom would be absorbed into our bodies.”
“I gotta say, the Heaven Mystery Pavilion sure is smart to create a bug like this.”
“Can we trust what you say? It sounds too good to be true.”
Lei Bao and Ye Xuan were secretly frightened, even a Wisdom Elite would do best to avoid this kind of bug.
A faint light flashed in Shen Suanzi’s eyes, and he said, “My Heaven Mystery Pavilion is exploring the secret of heaven. I’m already entangled with Wisdom and we are mutually restrained. Therefore, after death, I will be transformed into a Origins Devouring Bug. This is the top secret of the Heaven Mystery Pavilion.”
Ye Xuan immediately said, “What are we waiting for then? Let’s go and put our plan in motion.”
“Yes, this is the Origins of the dimension we’re talking about!” Lei Bao added.
Shen Suanzi nodded and said, “Follow me.”
Immediately, the three of them arrived at Heaven Mystery Pavilion.
“Please wait for me here while I go get the Origins Devouring Bug,” said Shen Suazi before leaving for the backyard. He walked to the deepest part of the place and headed down to the secret room underground.
In this secret room, the light was dim and empty, with only an old man sitting cross-legged in the center. Around him, the space seemed to be overlapping with each other, making the old man look a little erratic. Not only that, the ground where he was sitting was actually connected together, as if he had grown from the ground! An incomparably strange breath radiated from his body, majestic and vast.
Shen Suanzi’s eyes suddenly became extremely enthusiastic, and he respectfully cupped his hand in salutation. “Greetings, Master.”
If Lei Bo and Ye Xuan were here, they would surely exclaim in shock because this old man was none other than the old pavilion master of Heaven Mystery Pavilion! Not only did he not die, but the aura on his body had become even more unpredictable.
The old pavilion master opened his eyes. His eyes were completely black. These were not a pair of eyes, but two black holes, which were extremely deep and seem to be all-encompassing. A hoarse voice came from the old man’s mouth, “I’ve seen everything you did. It’s pretty good. Let’s use them to test the strength of our opponent!”
“Master is fused with the Origins and deliberately pulled the Origins of the third dimension here, why didn’t you devour it then? Why would you wait until now to devour it?” Shen Suanzi asked. This question had been floating around his mind for a long time.
The old man opened his mouth and said, “That is only a small of the Origins of the third dimension. It doesn’t mean much to me for the time being. I left it in the hands of the outsiders to attract more Origins. However, things went better than I expected. Something seems to have changed in the seventh dimension, maybe I can use this opportunity to devour the Origins of the seventh dimension!”
“A truly wise and brilliant plan,” said Shen Suanzi.
No one knew how the Heaven Mystery Pavilion was able to turn the table when the fourth dimension was on the brink of destruction. Only a few knew the reason to be the old pavilion master mistakenly fused with the fourth dimension’ Origins when he was calculating the fate of the fourth dimension which caused his power to skyrocket.
However, the original Origins of Wisdom was originally desireless, but after merging with the old pavilion master, an inevitable change took place and its desire began to emerge — the desire to devour the Origins of the other six dimensions!
One of his plans turned the Murong Clan into cannon fodder, and now he planned to use Ye Xuan and Lei Bao as pawns to test the strength of the other dimensions.
“Go, the stamp contains my aura. You’ll be able to find the other origins once you’ve found the seal,” said the old pavilion master indifferently. He raised his hand and a group of Origins Devouring Bug flew towards Shen Suanzi.
The Origins Devouring Bug possessed the ability to devour Origins but if they succeed the Origins would naturally be absorbed by the old pavilion master and if it failed, it would be Ye Xuan and Lei Bao would have to pay the price with their lives.
Shendaozi saluted and exited the secret room. He returned to the hall and smiled at Ye Xuan and Lei Bao. “Brothers, I have prepared the Origins Devouring Bug. Next, let me teach you the refining method. After refining, these insects are equivalent to your clones. As long as one of them is alive, you will not have to worry about your life. ”
Lei Bao and Ye Xuan did not realize that they had fallen for Shen Suanzi’s trick and so looked at the Origins Devouring Bug with eyes burning with excitement. They were already thinking up ways of how to use the bugs to help themselves absorb more Origins of Dimensions.
Inside the main hall of the Heaven Mystery Pavilion, the three of them were sitting in a cross-legged position, not moving an inch. The Origins Devouring Bugs begant fly around them before taking off together with their destination being Tiandang Mountain.
These Origins Devouring Bug flew in the air, their bodies gradually disappeared as they became invisible, seemingly having blended into their surroundings. Not long after, they came to the portal to the seventh dimension. Yang Jian was guarding here with a team of Heavenly Soldiers, even though he had a third eye, he did not notice anything at all.
“Ah so this is where the portal to the seventh dimension is. It would have taken us a long time to find it if it wasn’t for Heaven Mystery Pavilion.”
“Is this the seventh dimension? It’s really a good world. I thought that this dimension would be suppressed by the Eldritch, but it’s even better than I imagined.”
“Let’s plunder the resources here after devouring the Origins.”
They flew all the way, followed the guidance, and went straight to the Area of the Gods. When they reached there, they could not help but whisper.
“What’s going on? Why is the seventh dimension so weak? I don’t even sense a Wisdom Elite here.”
“Can anyone in this dimension really destroy the Murong Clan?”
“When we go back, we will immediately gather our men to plunder the resources in this dimension!”
“If the Eldritch can do it, then so can we!”
They were excited and felt that this trip was too worthwhile.
Gradually, they saw a mountain range. There, a strong attraction came, filling their hearts with desire and invigorating their spirits. The Origins of Dimension must be there! They quickly flew into the Fallen Immortal Mountain and immediately felt some powerful aura.
“That’s the Demon Emperor’s three-headed canine! It must have been brought here after being captured.”
“And that is a nine-headed python! All the Demon Emperor’s demon team leaders have been captured!”
“The Demon Emperor must have lost his life here too! I wonder why they brought the demons here.”
“The secret to the destruction of the Murong Clan should be here. I have a hunch that this is the most unusual place in the seventh dimension so be careful.”
The Origins Devouring Bugs continued to move forward silently. A four-part architecture slowly came into view. The moment they saw the four-part architecture, they began to tremble, as if they had seen a great horror, and a chill came from the bottom of their hearts, which nearly made their heads explode and their souls to leave their body.
‘Danger! Run! Get the h*ll out of this place!’ Inexplicably, those were the only thoughts left in their minds, which acted as an alarm bell for their fate. Just as when they were about to retreat, a boundless and powerful force suddenly landed on them, suppressing them so that they could not move. Immediately afterward, they began to see stars around their heads as an irresistible force pulled them into a new space.
When they came back to their senses, they were already in a green meadow with vegetables and fruits planted not far away. These plants were all exuding a majestic Spiritual Qi and in the surrounding sky, there was even a boundless aura of Wisdom rippling through the air.
This was undoubtedly an unimaginable wonderland. However, they were not at all happy, because the inexplicable horror in their hearts was sharply deepening.
“What is this place?”
“Did I just become a bug of this place?”
