One gave rise to two, two gave rise to three, and three gave rise to all things. The Supreme Ultimate gave rise to Yin and Yang, Yin and Yang gave rise to the Four Directions, the Four Directions gave rise to the Eight Trigrams, and the Eight Trigrams gave rise to all things… The Celestial Palace that Heaven had built had been derived from the Great Dao that he had comprehended from observing the chaotic storms in space. It had been infused with the ultimate principles of the Great Dao and also the fundamental basis of all things.
“When I investigated the essence of the Celestial Palace, I discovered the secret of Heaven’s personal divine tool and sought to destroy it so as to end this problem once and for all. Alas, I was unable to break through that layer of laws. If the Celestial Palace’s Great Dao is not broken, it can never be destroyed. Though I racked my brain and spent countless days and nights, I eventually used up all my essence blood and failed to break Heaven’s Great Dao, so I could only leave everything to you.
“You are the last carrier of the Stone of Destiny, and also the most special one. I hope that you can break the Celestial Palace, defeat Heaven, and do what I and the others could not. If not even you can do anything, then this world will truly be brought to an end.”
The echoes of the Yellow Emperor’s voice quickly disappeared, and his final words left Wang Chong’s heart heavy.
The lives of millions of people in the capital and all of the other people in the continent had been placed on his shoulders. Wang Chong had never felt pressure like this before.
Buzz!
All the visions before Wang Chong slowly faded away, and Wang Chong’s mind returned to his body. When he opened his eyes, he once more saw the familiar sight of the palace, but the energy belonging to Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan had disappeared.
At this moment, Wang Chong knew that the Yellow Emperor was truly gone, with no trace of him remaining.
“How was it?” a voice called out to Wang Chong. Master Guangcheng, Li Xuantu, and Little Nightmare were all looking with concern at Wang Chong.
After a few moments of silence, Wang Chong told them everything the Yellow Emperor had told him.
“One gives rise to two, two gives rise to three, three gives rise to all things… This is the foundation of the world, the supreme Great Dao. It is essentially impossible to surpass the Great Dao.”
Master Guangcheng frowned, and the hearts of the other sank.
Wang Chong was speaking of the fundamental principle to the origin of life. It was through this method that the heavens and earth, the universe, all things, flourished and multiplied.
Not even Master Guangcheng was sure that he could carry out the method to destroy the Celestial Palace that the Yellow Emperor had outlined, let alone anyone else.
“Master…”
Little Nightmare looked up hesitantly at Wang Chong.
It had not the slightest clue about what Wang Chong had said, let alone a solution.
“Relax. There must be a way,” Wang Chong soothed, stroking Little Nightmare’s head.
Wang Chong then moved to another part of the palace, sat down cross-legged, and began to think.
Pensive looks appeared on Li Xuantu’s and Master Guangcheng’s faces as they left him to his thoughts.
All of them began to think of a way to resolve this problem.
Time slowly passed. The Celestial Emperor Palace was eerily quiet.
Bang!
After some time, while Wang Chong was thinking, a tremor came from his mind, and the Stone of Destiny spoke once more.
“Congratulations to user! Integration complete! Stone of Destiny completion currently at 36%. User has obtained the power of Lightning Control, the power of Enhanced Weather Control, an Enhanced Foundation Dimension, and Enhanced Samsara Battle Armor.
“Congratulations to user for obtaining the Grotto Heaven Core of Destiny Experimental Body 2!
“Congratulations to user for obtaining the Psychic Energy strength of Destiny Experimental Body 2!
“All rewards are now being distributed!”
Wang Chong felt his body tremble, and an immense energy howled out of the Stone of Destiny and spread throughout his limbs. This energy was blazing hot, and Wang Chong felt like his body was being roasted by a fire.
“Ah!”
Wang Chong softly cried out in pain, but at the same time, an inconceivably enormous strength made Wang Chong soar in power.
Moreover, while Wang Chong had possessed a Psychic Energy that had been far stronger than that of his peers, at this moment, a Psychic Energy that was on par with his own, perhaps even stronger, flooded into Wang Chong’s mind.
This Psychic Energy was extremely pure and did not possess any sort of characteristic. The nourishment of this energy instantly caused Wang Chong’s Psychic Energy to increase at an astonishing speed.
So quickly did his power soar that it almost instantly reached some sort of limit, and Wang Chong felt like his head was about to split open.
This was the result of obtaining an excessive amount of power in a single instance.
Buzz!
This sudden development drew everyone else’s attention, and they turned to look at him.
What they saw left them flabbergasted. Lightning was erupting from Wang Chong’s body, turning the place into a dangerous sea of electricity.
Besides that, they could sense Wang Chong’s energy rapidly climbing, and even the fabric of space within the Celestial Emperor Palace was beginning to distort.
Without the immense power of the barrier suppressing it, the energy erupting from Wang Chong would be affecting several dozen times its current area.
Kacrack!
The palace suddenly darkened as a blazing bolt of lightning pierced through the roof of the Celestial Emperor Palace and struck Wang Chong’s body.
“Master!”
Little Nightmare instinctively wanted to lunge forward, but it was stopped by Master Guangcheng.
“Don’t go over. He’s received Little Grass’s legacy and is currently receiving his power. This dimension’s energy is currently converging on his body.”
Taken aback, Little Nightmare looked over. Sure enough, Wang Chong was uninjured by the lightning. On the contrary, he was actually growing stronger.
The vast sea of energy around them had coalesced into a giant energy vortex that was funneling all of the energy into Wang Chong’s body.
“He will need some time to fully receive Little Grass’s power. There’s no need for us to disturb him,” Master Guangcheng said.
Li Xuantu nodded in agreement, and the group withdrew from the Celestial Emperor Palace, leaving the place for Wang Chong.
Meanwhile, Wang Chong continued to experience changes in his body.
“Congratulations to user! For achieving a major boost in the completion of the Stone of Destiny, user has obtained the ‘Myriad Forms World’!”
“The Myriad Forms World?”
Wang Chong had been immersed in his soaring power and had been busy inspecting his new abilities. These sudden words caused him to wake from his stupor with a start.
“The Myriad Forms World, as its name indicates, is used to project the form of all the myriad things within the universe. User can use this ability to scan everything in the surroundings and project them into the Myriad Forms World.
“This ability includes, but is not limited to, martial artists, and a number of Destiny Energy points will be deducted based on the strength of the martial artist. In the Myriad Forms Dimension, user can control all projections and also battle with them.
“In addition, mountains, plants, geography, and the weather can also be projected into the Myriad Forms Dimension. In addition, this ability can also assist the user in projecting all the surrounding parallel and side dimensions, assisting the user in direction-finding and battle.
“Besides this, this ability can also help user in traversing space and exploring the universe. It can establish coordinates in space and clearly indicate direction so that user is not lost in space.
“Put simply, the Myriad Forms World can project the universe, but this is restricted to only the parts of the universe user has interacted with.”
Wang Chong was truly surprised by the Stone of Destiny’s explanation.
“The Myriad Forms Dimension can also project ritual tools or buildings?”
“Of course!”
The Stone of Destiny replied much faster than Wang Chong had expected.
“The Myriad Forms Dimension can project all things, so it can naturally project lifeless ritual tools.”
Wang Chong was overjoyed by this answer.
“Stone of Destiny, using the supreme privileges of the Archon of Destiny, activate the Myriad Forms Dimension and scan the entire Celestial Palace!” Wang Chong immediately said.
He had yet to think of a way to deal with the Celestial Palace and Heaven, but a complete projection of the Celestial Palace would be an enormous aid in this effort.
“Request accepted. Activating the Myriad Forms World. Preparing to scan!”
The Stone of Destiny’s voice rang out, and soon, an invisible energy that only Wang Chong could sense began to spread out through the enormous Celestial Palace.
A moment later, Wang Chong’s vision darkened as his mind was pulled out of his body and into the Stone of Destiny’s Myriad Forms World.
Just like the scanners from the world he had transmigrated from, a framework came into being, piece by piece.
The projection of the Myriad Forms World was far more detailed than the Yellow Emperor’s projection. Not only did it replicate the inner palaces and the complicated internal layout of the ritual tools, it even had the tiny carvings on the paving stones, the scars on the white jade, the thunderclouds beneath the Celestial Emperor Palace, the surging ocean and raging waves, and even the six pillars at the edge of the ocean.
The first layer was projected, then the second, the third…
After about five minutes, the Celestial Palace was fully projected into the Myriad Forms World.
No—this was no mere projection, but a complete reconstruction that was simply on a smaller scale.
If he had access to the same materials, Wang Chong would have even been able to actually build one.
The level of detail in the Myriad Forms World truly had Wang Chong sighing in praise.
“Projection complete. User may perform operations on the projection in the Myriad Forms World. In addition, the most important function of the Myriad Forms Dimension is to assist the user. As everything is a projection that has been fused with the user’s will, the passage of time here will be slower than the speed at which the user can think. User can consider this an internal consciousness, a consciousness within a consciousness!” the Stone of Destiny’s voice rang out.
“A consciousness within a consciousness. In other words, the flow of time within the Myriad Forms World is somewhat similar to the subconscious.”
