Chapter 50

Su Chen took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the excitement and anticipation in his heart.

He reached out and gently stroked the surface of the picture scroll; the warm and desolate touch made his chaotic thoughts gradually calm down.

"Heavenly Secret Treasure, interpret this picture scroll."

Su Chen recited silently in his heart.

The ancient treasure floating in his sea of consciousness immediately emitted a faint light, as if responding to his summons.

【Interpreting this picture scroll requires consuming two hundred Heavenly Secret Points. Confirm?】

The Heavenly Secret Treasure's prompt appeared in his mind again.

"Confirm!"

Su Chen did not hesitate at all.

This deal is worth it!

Following his confirmation, the light of the Heavenly Secret Treasure suddenly flared brightly.

At the same time, a mysterious light suddenly appeared out of thin air and landed on the picture scroll.

"Hum—"

The picture scroll that had been lying quietly on Su Chen's knees seemed to have been injected with life and began to tremble violently.

On the picture scroll, the two twisted and coiled innate Dao characters seemed to come alive, beginning to twist and struggle crazily, as if wanting to break free from the constraints of the scroll.

A Dao charm, countless times more grand, vast, and ancient than what Su Chen had comprehended himself before, erupted from the picture scroll!

This Dao charm was so domineering, so revered, as if it were the source of all Great Daos between heaven and earth, the beginning of all power.

Su Chen only felt that his soul was as small as a speck of dust in front of this Dao charm, as if it would be crushed into powder at any moment.

"Not good!"

Su Chen was shocked in his heart; he didn't expect that just interpreting the information would attract such a terrifying scene.

He hurriedly operated the Hunyuan Jin Dan in his dantian, which began to spin, emitting a gentle Dao charm and desperately protecting his mind.

Fortunately, the light cast by the Heavenly Secret Treasure also seemed to play a protective role.

That light enveloped his entire person, forming an independent area, isolating most of that terrifying Dao charm.

Even so, Su Chen still felt as if his head was about to burst.

He gritted his teeth, holding onto the last trace of clarity in his spirit platform, not daring to relax in the slightest.

He knew that this was both a danger and a huge opportunity!

Being able to feel this level of Dao charm at such close range had immeasurable benefits for his future cultivation.

Time seemed to lose its meaning at this moment.

It is unknown how much time passed before that violent Dao charm gradually calmed down.

The two innate Dao characters on the picture scroll also stopped struggling and returned to calm.

Only, compared to before, they seemed to have gained an extra bit of spirituality.

Su Chen let out a long breath and relaxed completely.

That short period of time just now was even more dangerous and exhausting for him than experiencing a life-and-death battle.

But his eyes were shockingly bright.

Because, just now, following the interpretation of the Heavenly Secret Treasure, a massive amount of information flooded into his mind like a breached dam.

【Interpretation successful.】

【Item Name: Pangu True Form Picture】

【Item Origin: In the chaos, the Great God Pangu opened up the world and died of exhaustion. His spine turned into Mount Wuzhou, supporting heaven and earth; his eyes turned into the sun and moon; his... This picture scroll was refined by the twelve Ancestral Witches of the Wu Clan, comprehending the Pangu true body from their memories.】

【Picture Scroll Content (1): Innate Dao Character - "Pangu"】

【Picture Scroll Content (2): Pangu True Form Picture (Opening Heaven Style)】

【Hidden Information: Wu Clan's Supreme Body Refining Divine Ability - "Heavenly Gang Thirty-Six Axes"】

When this series of information was clearly presented in Su Chen's mind.

Pangu?

Pangu True Form Picture?

Wu Clan's supreme body refining divine ability?

He never dreamed that this picture scroll he had casually obtained from the Qingxi Sword Sect would have such an earth-shattering origin.

Su Chen's gaze fell once again on the two innate Dao characters.

Before, he only felt that these two symbols were extremely profound and contained supreme Great Daos.

But now, when he knew their true meaning, looking at them again, the feeling was completely different.

"Pan... Gu..."

Su Chen recited these two words, character by character, in his heart.

Boom!

His sea of consciousness shook violently again.

In his eyes, those two Dao characters were no longer twisted symbols.

They seemed to come alive, evolving into infinite mysteries.

The character "Pan" seemed to turn into a boundless chaos, with no up or down, no four directions, no past or future, only eternal nothingness and dead silence.

And the character "Gu" seemed to turn into a supreme god holding a giant axe, awakening in the chaos.

He roared, he bellowed, and he swung the giant axe in his hand!

An axe light that could not be described in words tore through the eternal dead silence, opened up the heaven and earth, and defined the universe!

"This is... Pangu!"

Su Chen's mind was shocked as never before.

He seemed to have witnessed the scene of opening up the world with his own eyes.

That supreme will of forging ahead, breaking through everything, and creating everything was deeply branded in the depths of his soul.

After a long time, Su Chen slowly recovered from that shock.

His eyes became extremely complex.

There was excitement, ecstasy, awe, and a trace of lingering fear.

He finally understood why he had been unable to comprehend these two Dao characters before.

Are you kidding!

These are the two characters "Pangu"!

They are innate Dao characters that recorded the supreme merit of opening up the world!

What level of Great Dao is contained within them?

Let alone a small human immortal like him, even if a Tai Yi Jin Xian came, they would probably only be able to look and sigh.

Before, not knowing the height of heaven and the depth of earth, he had actually dared to try to comprehend it; it was simply an ant wanting to shake the entire heaven and earth.

Not having his soul crushed on the spot by that opening-heaven will was already considered lucky.

"No wonder, no wonder interpreting it required a full two hundred Heavenly Secret Points. Where is this expensive? This is simply cheap to the extreme!"

Su Chen was filled with emotion.

He knew that this time, he had really found a treasure.

Just the "Pangu True Form Picture" itself, its value probably already exceeded most innate spiritual treasures.

Not to mention, it also hid a supreme body-refining divine ability of the Wu Clan!

"Heavenly Gang Thirty-Six Axes"!

Su Chen's heart instantly became fiery.

He couldn't wait to immerse his mind into that part of the hidden information interpreted by the Heavenly Secret Treasure.

He wanted to see just how powerful this cultivation technique, crowned with the name "Wu Clan's Supreme Body Refining Divine Ability," really was!

When Su Chen's mind touched that information about the "Heavenly Gang Thirty-Six Axes," a vast and boundless stream of information instantly submerged him.

Countless images and countless insights flooded into his sea of consciousness crazily.

He seemed to see, on the ancient Primordial land, giants thousands of feet tall, with knotted muscles and exuding monstrous baleful aura, roaring at the sky.

They were the overlords of the ancient Primordial land—the Wu Clan!
