Chapter 1230: Xuanhuang Essence, Revived (4)
"Very well, as long as you accept willingly," the silver-robed figure nodded before turning back to Wu Yuan. "I've sealed the Xuanhuang Essence for you. Store it within your internal space for now. Full refinement must wait until you’ve achieved eternity."
He added, "Also, keep your mana body."
With a thunderous rumble, the aura of the Xuanhuang Essence rapidly retracted, the orb collapsing and shrinking until it resembled a fist-sized sphere.
Wu Yuan's ether body first stored his mana body in his grotto-heaven, then the sealed Xuanhuang Essence.
"Master," True Saint Tian Chan exclaimed, eyes widening in astonishment, "is this white-robed Overlord your mana body?"
Only now did this realization dawn on him, his expression shifting from surprise to shock.
"There are many secrets you've yet to learn," Wu Yuan replied with a measured smile. "Remember, do not speak a word of this."
"Yes! Yes, of course!" Tian Chan nodded vigorously, his excitement evident. If he had previously estimated Wu Yuan's chances of achieving Grand Supreme status at fifty percent, his confidence had now soared considerably higher.
The thought left him practically trembling with anticipation—two true selves, each pioneering terrifying Daos, and now they’ve even obtained the Xuanhuang Essence!

A spacetime vortex formed nearby, transmitting vast, profound fluctuations mixed with an aura Wu Yuan recognized immediately—the cosmic sea.
"Senior, I shall take my leave," Wu Yuan said, bowing respectfully before gliding smoothly into the spacetime vortex.
