Chapter 740 The Prelude That Had Just Begun

"Secret?" Xu Han stared at the red-clothed woman in front of him. The vigilance in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest because of her words.

The woman ignored Xu Han's thoughts. At that time, she suddenly extended her hand and lightly tapped it. Her fingertips landed between Xu Han's eyebrows without moving.

Ding.

A soft voice rang out from the heavens and earth. Xu Han's body trembled at that moment. A feeling of enlightenment filled his entire body, and then the vast white world around him suddenly shattered like glass.

When the white fragments fell to the ground, Xu Han opened his eyes again. The high-pitched cry of the phoenix came from beside his ears. His eyes were still in the dilapidated world. Gui Guzi's aura to spy on this world had just come. The thing that had been decomposed into origin power by him was still under the dome and hadn't dissipated.

It was as if the hundreds of breaths he had gone through in the vast white world had only happened in the blink of an eye in this real world.

The transformation of time and space was too sudden, so much so that Xu Han couldn't tell whether what he had just experienced was a dream or reality.

Suddenly, his falling body sank, and something had already dragged him down.

Heng!

A loud cry sounded in Xu Han's ears again. Xu Han's heart trembled. Only then did he realize that there was a divine bird bathed in fire that lifted his body up and ran towards the dome again.

'"I…" Xu Han came back to his senses. He lowered his head and looked at his hands. Trying to summon the power in his body, He didn't have much time to carefully examine what he had experienced just now. He quickly adapted to his current situation. Since he could run towards the dome again, he had to use the origin power disintegrated by Ghost Valley's apostles to cover up the heavenly secrets of this world before Ghost Valley descended again.

The Phoenix beneath him seemed to know what he was thinking. With a flap of its flaming wings, its speed instantly increased by several levels and it flew straight towards the dome.

But at this moment, Xu Han frowned. When he tried to activate the power in his body, he discovered that the vast power in his body seemed to have fallen into a deep slumber. No matter how hard he tried, the power had not been activated by him at all.

"That remnant soul is still in your body. The Emperor's will is also affecting your body. I will use a secret technique to separate you three. Once you use the Emperor's power, the Emperor's will will will surely surge again. The balance of the three will be out of control once again. If you fall unconscious, your mind will be devoured." Just as Xu Han was puzzled as to where such a change had come from, a gentle female voice sounded in his ears.

Xu Han was stunned at that moment, but he quickly reacted. This voice became the voice of the woman he had met in the white barrier.

He did not show too much surprise, but after a short moment of silence, he said, "Senior, do you think I can only watch Gui Gu Zi destroy this world?"

"Haha, what's the hurry?" The woman's bright laughter echoed in Xu Han's ears, carrying a charming and charming aura. "Didn't I tell you? I have a big secret."

Xu Han frowned. He could clearly feel that Gui Gu Zi's aura was getting closer and closer. He could descend into this world at any time. At such a critical moment, Xu Han really did not have the mood to laugh with the woman in red.

His expression darkened. He was about to say something when he suddenly felt something above his head shine. It seemed that a ray of light shone on his body as the light shone. Xu Han realized the strange thing. He subconsciously raised his head and saw that a dazzling starlight had poured into his eyebrows at that moment.

Xu Han's body trembled at that moment. He saw the boundless darkness above the dome, A star came from the void thousands of kilometers away, sprinkling a wisp of resplendence towards the world. The starlight that landed directly between his eyebrows carried an incomparably vast amount of power. As the starlight continued to shoot down, the power wrapped in the starlight also poured into Xu Han's body endlessly at that time.

This was not the first time Xu Han had come into contact with such a starlight. Back in Chang'an City, the surveillance had given Xu Han such a starlight when he descended. Although it was only an undetectable starlight, it was Xu Han who had used it to ascend to the Mortal Immortal Realm. From this, it could be seen how terrifying the power within the starlight was. At this moment, the power that was continuously pouring into his body was even more boundless, and it was countless times stronger than the faint starlight from back then.

Under the nourishment of the starlight, Xu Han's strength did not increase at all, but his will was frantically strengthened by the starlight.

Just as the white-robed "Xu Han" in Kunlun Immortal Palace had said, Xu Han was the son of Master Wei and the Demon Monarch named Ah Yan. However, that child was captured by the Ghost Valley Masters, and his divine soul was extracted. He placed his fleshly body into the depths of the world, and his intelligence was born under the influence of the Emperor's power. However, this intelligence was different from the souls of ordinary people. It was an extremely special thing, something that was between the soul and the fleshly body.

Such things were rare in the world, and could not be strengthened through cultivation like ordinary cultivators. However, this starlight seemed to coincide with Xu Han's intelligence. It was actually able to perfectly fit into Xu Han's body and strengthen Xu Han's unique intelligence.

Actually, ordinary cultivators in this world did not care much about tempering their souls. However, the main purpose of being subtly strengthened in the process of cultivation was to allow cultivators to possess a strong enough will and not be so easily immersed in such techniques as illusions. Apart from that, there were practically no other methods needed to cultivate in this world regarding such mysterious and mysterious things. This was also the main reason why Xu Han hadn't realized that his intelligence was different from others during such a long period of cultivation.

Even at this moment, Xu Han did not think about the many oddities in it. Instead, his face was filled with joy.

This starlight strengthened his spiritual power, which meant that he had the power to contend against the divine soul and the will of the emperor, and he had the chance to use the origin power left behind by Ghost Corn's apostle to deceive the world's heavenly secrets.

Thinking of this, the joy on Xu Han's face grew even greater, and his body began to tremble slightly. However, he did not forget that all of this had happened because of the phoenix he was sitting on, the phoenix that came from beyond the heavens…

"Senior" Xu Han was about to say something when the woman's voice suddenly rang out.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you. This state can only last for less than a hundred breaths of time. Now is not a good time to solve your confusion."

The woman's tone carried a hint of impatience, but Xu Han was no longer as vigilant as before. The woman had already reached this level, so how could Xu Han not understand who the other party was on? He smiled slightly and put away the doubts in his heart. At that time, his gaze sank and he looked at the dome again. Then, he nodded heavily and said, "Junior understands."

…

The boundless power surged back into Xu Han's body once again. He stepped on the Divine Phoenix Bird that was bathed in fire and arrived under the dome.

With a thought in his heart, the violent imperial power was pushed out of his body by him. Xu Han could hear wailing and roaring in his body at that time. At that time, the sounds of the other two wills came from his body, but he didn't care about it. He reached out his hand and grabbed the origin power of the ghost grain that was circling in midair. The pitch-black color in his eyes suddenly lit up. The Essence Force rotated for a while, seemingly wanting to resist Xu Han's power. However, this method was only a desperate struggle. He was no match for Xu Han in his lifetime. How could he escape from Xu Han's Five Finger Mountain now?

As a result, after a short struggle, the surging Origin Energy was unable to resist Xu Han's incomparably powerful will. It turned into black and white dots of light that scattered all over the world.

These powers could protect this world from the sight of the Ghost Corn for a short period of time. Although it was only a breath of peace, it was extremely important to Xu Han.

Whoosh…

Whoosh…

After doing this, Xu Han's face turned pale again. After a brief surge of black aura, He calmed down again and retreated into his body. He looked at the broken mountains and rivers beneath his feet with a smile. The consciousness in his mind suddenly became somewhat blurry. He knew that this was the beginning of the aftereffects that the woman had said. Although he did not know what kind of aftereffects the injection of starlight would bring him, Xu Han clearly did not care about it now. The smile on his face was stronger than a breath. Finally, at a certain moment, his eyes darkened and he fell down again.

A trace of helplessness flashed in the Divine Phoenix Bird's eyes beneath his feet. The flames around her condensed, and at that moment, she transformed into a human form. However, it was the woman in red that Xu Han had seen in that white world. She stretched out her hand to gently drag Xu Han's unconscious body. She sighed and then stopped. Then, she flew away with Xu Han in the direction far away from the Great Abyss Mountain.

…

Nineteen did not know what had happened during this period of time, but she could clearly feel that the entire world seemed to have changed at this moment.

She raised her head to look at the horizon, but she couldn't see what was happening there clearly. It was only when the change happened and the sound of the phoenix suddenly flying out of Ye Hongjian's body disappeared that she vaguely realized that this change seemed to have been painted at this moment.

However, she did not feel the slightest bit lucky after the calamity. Instead, she looked behind her in confusion. There were two Zhou Yuan there. Only then did Nineteen realize that her two masters seemed to be in an extremely awkward state.

She couldn't help but hesitate, but she still couldn't suppress the confusion in her heart and asked, "Master… Is it all over?"

Zhou Yuan, who was dressed in white, remained silent, as if he was in the mood.

At that moment, the black-clothed Zhou Yuan smiled faintly. His body suddenly changed, and then he gradually transformed into a girl exactly like Nineteen. She turned a blind eye to Nineteen's shock and said, "No."

"Everything has only just begun."
