Chapter 275: Transcendence (31)
Spirit Divine King fell into a deep struggle. He did not believe Su Chen had any good intentions. Yet just as Su Chen had said, he had no other choice. In the end, he could only choose to trust him.
Spirit Divine King's shoulders slumped, his spirit deflated. "You should know the legend of a True Immortal's fall."
Su Chen's eyes brightened. "Is this universe connected to a True Immortal?"
True Immortals were existences of unimaginable power.
Spirit Divine King shook his head. Su Chen suspected the man was toying with him.
"When that True Immortal fell, he left behind three thousand strands of Immortal Qi. Refining even one strand would allow one to gain a trace of Immortal aura. If someone could refine all three thousand strands, they might achieve immortality," Spirit Divine King continued.
Su Chen gave him a meaningful look. And he still claimed it had nothing to do with a True Immortal?
Spirit Divine King went on, "Long ago, a supreme expert rose to prominence. He was born with the Nine Revolutions Reincarnation Physique, undying and indestructible. He reached the peak of the Great Dao and collected one thousand eight hundred strands of Immortal Qi. Having comprehended the mysteries of life and death, he was on the verge of achieving immortality.
"But… he encountered a powerful enemy. On the eve of his ascension, he was besieged. Outnumbered, he ultimately perished, his body and Dao destroyed."
