A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 360

Chapter 360 Old Friend

After erasing Immortal Emperor Wanmu, Divine King Chixuan did not feel joy; instead, he sighed deeply, filled with melancholy.

Immortal Emperor Wanmu had been his closest friend. In Ancient Times, they were the earliest cultivators to become Immortal Emperors in the entire Xuanyuan Realm—unequaled by any. However, after breaking through to Immortal Emperor strength, Wanmu began to feel that advancing further had become increasingly difficult.

He found a method of refining sacrifices within a secret realm formed when a world was first born and was inspired to directly refine the Three Thousand Minor Worlds to help himself break through to the Immortal Emperor Pinnacle.

Naturally, Divine King Chixuan would not allow this. So, he blocked Wanmu’s attempt.

Wanmu agreed on the surface but privately schemed to strike first. When Divine King Chixuan reached the Immortal Emperor Pinnacle, Wanmu made his move.

Holding the Five Great Artifacts, Wanmu had assumed victory was guaranteed. However, he did not expect Divine King Chixuan’s foundation to be far deeper and stronger than he had anticipated. Against the influence of the Five Great Artifacts, Chixuan forcibly defeated Wanmu with the strength equivalent to a Small World.

Realizing he was no match for Divine King Chixuan, Wanmu could only kneel and beg for mercy to save his life. Out of their long friendship, Chixuan ultimately spared Wanmu.

But he made sure Wanmu paid a heavy price—he directly used a powerful method to bind Wanmu’s contract to become the Heavenly Dao of a Small World: the Xuantian Realm.

Chixuan originally thought he would never have to see Wanmu again in this life. Yet, Wanmu still planned to take revenge. Given that, Divine King Chixuan no longer held back and ended Wanmu’s life right then and there.

“But what about the Five Great Artifacts?”

After slaying Immortal Emperor Wanmu, Divine King Chixuan sensed something and furrowed his brow slightly.

Back when he sealed Wanmu into the Xuantian Realm to become a Heavenly Dao of a Small World, Divine King Chixuan had set up a Grand Array using Wanmu’s five Divine Artifacts as the array’s foundation to strengthen the seal and prevent Wanmu from leaving.

Under normal circumstances, since Wanmu was preparing to leave the Xuantian Realm, those five Divine Artifacts should have been taken away—but now, Chixuan couldn’t find them anywhere.

Realizing this, his frown deepened.

“Could it be that Wanmu found a successor and sent those five Divine Artifacts out?”

Thinking this, Divine King Chixuan waved his hand, causing the surrounding time to begin flowing backward—though this reversal was only visible through his eyes; the normal state of the Xuantian Realm remained unchanged.

Walking through the River of Time and Space within the Xuantian Realm, Chixuan quickly arrived before the five array foundations. Through the temporal river, he saw someone appear within the Five Great Forbidden Lands and take the five Divine Artifacts.

But the instant he saw who it was, Divine King Chixuan’s expression turned extremely grim. The figure’s form was blurry, their aura utterly illusory—so much so that even Chixuan, a God King, could hardly sense their presence.

“What is going on? Why would such a powerful being appear in the relatively small Xuantian Realm, and all just for five top-grade Divine Artifacts?”

Divine King Chixuan felt extremely displeased inside. Clearly, he had never anticipated such a twist, but deep down, he wasn’t very afraid. Under normal circumstances, perhaps the other party had merely taken those five Divine Artifacts by chance, and it had nothing to do with Immortal Emperor Wanmu.

If it truly had nothing to do with Wanmu, then naturally this was not his enemy. With his current foundation, a mere five Divine Artifacts were insignificant and not worth worrying about.

However, the next moment, Divine King Chixuan was shocked. He saw Wu Hao traveling through the River of Time and Space suddenly sense something and glance toward Divine King Chixuan. That single look instantly filled Chixuan with an overwhelming urge to kneel.

After all, he was a God King—what kind of powerful being could make him want to kneel just from one glance?

“He’s a strong one, definitely a strong one. Even the President couldn’t make me feel like kneeling just by a single look!”

Meanwhile, as time passed, Wu Hao was accompanying Wu Zhen’e to retrieve the Ablaze Mystic Pearl when he suddenly sensed something and cast a gaze into the void.

Wu Zhen’e curiously asked, “Great Grandfather, what is it?”

“Nothing, just sensed an interesting fellow. Continue on,” Wu Hao replied.

Shaking his head and not dwelling on it, Wu Hao took his Great Grandson and headed toward the next Forbidden Land.In the future, Divine King Chixuan took a deep breath and respectfully bowed to the image of Wu Hao before returning to the present time. Since he had confirmed that the other party had no connection to Immortal Emperor Wanmu, Divine King Chixuan naturally no longer dwelled on it. However, something occurred to him, and with a somewhat serious expression, he said, “The sealing method I set up definitely wasn’t done by that Wanmu fellow. So who exactly did it?”

“But I did leave a contingency. If someone breaks the seal, it will leave a mark on their body. Unless they break through to the Divine Rank, they won’t be able to break it. I didn’t expect it to come into play now.”

With that thought, Divine King Chixuan took a deep breath and silently began to sense inwardly.

The next moment, Wu Yidao, who was cultivating within the Violet Thunderfinch Clan on Buzhou Mountain, sensed something and instinctively opened his eyes, alerting with a silent warning. A faint blue mark appeared on his back—so subtle that without careful attention, even if he became a God, he might not have noticed it.

Before Wu Yidao could erase the mark, an intensely terrifying pressure descended, attempting to force him down onto his knees. However, it was clear that the Chaos Bell would not give Divine King Chixuan that courtesy.

The next second, Chaos appeared before Wu Yidao with an indifferent expression and said, “Fellow Daoist, reveal yourself.”As Chaos finished speaking, the next moment, Divine King Chixuan’s figure slowly materialized before Wu Yidao and Chaos.

Upon appearing, Divine King Chixuan’s expression was extremely serious. Clearly, he hadn’t expected such powerful beings to exist. For a moment, he felt like cursing in frustration. He had never encountered such terrifying strength outside, so why was it that as soon as he returned to the Xuanyuan Realm, he ran into two at once?

However, Divine King Chixuan did not grow anxious because of this. Instead, he cupped his hands together in a respectful gesture and said politely, “Senior, this is all just a misunderstanding. I suppose it must have been this little friend who broke the seal I left in the Xuantian Realm.”

“Seal you left in the Xuantian Realm?”

Hearing this, before Chaos could respond, Wu Yidao—protected behind Chaos—said angrily.

He hadn’t expected that he would so quickly meet the one who sealed the Xuantian Realm. But since the Chaos Bell had accepted him as its master, otherwise, with his current strength alone, unless he absorbed at least one ten-thousandth of the Divine Origin, he wouldn’t have stood a chance against Divine King Chixuan.
