Chapter 2056: The Ancient Divine Embryo!

Though Wang Chong had received the entirety of the High Priest’s memories regarding arts and spells, this was the first time Wang Chong had ever used the ‘Origin Spirit Art’ .

This is an Origin Spirit? Wang Chong thought .

The sensation of Psychic Energy breaking free of the body and condensing into an Origin Spirit was a very unique experience . Wang Chong felt himself floating in the air and looking down at ‘himself’, and he could also sense that he was not in the shape of a human .

Wang Chong carefully observed and slowly began to understand .

The ‘Origin Spirit’ was the maximal compression of Psychic Energy, resulting in a part of the soul essentially having the trait of a ‘mental body’ that, once free from the physical body, could freely travel the earth .

However, the High Priest’s memories had been very clear .

The ‘Origin Spirit’ was merely a short-term searching art . While one was not restrained by the physical body, it did not mean that one was without limits .

The Origin Spirit could be away from the body for no more than four hours . Any more would cause extreme damage to the body .

“Four hours! Enough!”

Wang Chong’s eyes gleamed, and then he streaked into the ground like a shooting star, vanishing from sight .

……

……

Without the restraint of a physical body, Wang Chong’s Origin Spirit could move at ten-some times his original speed, even faster than the Nightmare Beast . In the blink of an eye, Wang Chong passed the depth of two hundred thousand feet, going down to a depth of three hundred thousand feet and continuing even farther .

After the granite layer was the basalt layer . The rock would only get tougher and denser from here .

A few moments later, Wang Chong sensed unusual fluctuations coming from beneath the earth .

It’s the magnetosphere! Wang Chong realized .

Besides rock, there was also an invisible and powerful magnetic field . This magnetic field covered the entire subterranean world and could affect one’s mental state and rationality . If one weren’t careful, it would be easy to lose oneself in the magnetic field .

Go in!

Wang Chong didn’t hesitate, shooting right into the magnetosphere .

The resistance was noticeably much greater in the magnetosphere, and even the Origin Soul was having a hard time . The sensation was like trying to swim through an ocean wave . He was now four hundred thousand feet from the surface—one hundred and twenty thousand meters .

In normal circumstances, even with the power of the Subtle realm, Wang Chong would have found it impossible to reach these depths .

There was no air in this place, making it a forbidden zone for living creatures!

Without the Origin Spirit Art, martial artists would never be able to reach this depth!

Still nothing! Where is the divine embryo?

After traveling so deep and still seeing no trace of the divine embryo in his surroundings, Wang Chong finally hesitated .

For a moment, Wang Chong even began to wonder if it was the first scenario, that his appearance had caused the divine embryo to no longer be here . Or perhaps it had never been here and there was some mistake in the information from his previous life .

But Wang Chong quickly shook off these thoughts .

If I don’t see a trace of the divine embryo at six hundred thousand feet, it really might not be here! Wang Chong quietly said to himself .

The magnetic field had already dropped the speed of Wang Chong’s Origin Spirit . Six hundred thousand feet was one hundred and eighty thousand meters . No matter what he found, Wang Chong would have to leave .

The Origin Spirit could only last for four hours . Taking into account the return time, Wang Chong had to go back once he hit six hundred thousand feet . Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Five hundred thousand feet, six hundred thousand feet!

Finally, just when Wang Chong was about to give up, he sensed a powerful ripple of Origin Energy . This energy was so intense that even a Subtle realm expert like Wang Chong felt a storm of terrifying pressure .

Not only that, this lightless world that was originally calm was suddenly rife with intense rumbling as if waves were seething deep under the earth . At the same time, he could feel searing waves of heat sweeping out .

Magma?!

Wang Chong was delighted to sense this intense heat, and he suddenly felt enlightened .

In that tale from the apocalyptic era, the divine embryo had appeared together with an intense eruption of lava . But Wang Chong had never imagined that this magma had come from so deep under the earth .

Six hundred thousand feet!

One hundred and eighty thousand meters!

At this depth, even the luster and pressure of magma was different .

It’s Pure Gold Magma!

This name passed through Wang Chong’s mind .

Wang Chong remembered the Demonic Emperor Old Man talking about it before . It was extremely damaging and powerful, but the vast majority of people would never encounter it in their lifetimes .

In reality, Pure Gold Magma was extremely hard to find . There was an extremely small chance that Pure Gold Magma would erupt to the surface alongside regular magma, which was how people knew about it .

At a depth of six hundred thousand feet, the pressure is extremely strong . The divine embryo probably only reemerged because it was forced out by the Pure Gold Magma! Wang Chong quietly said to himself .

He now understood . The appearance of the divine embryo had clearly been due to an intersection of coincidences . It was no wonder that no one had found it before then .

A moment later, Wang Chong shot toward where the energy ripples were most concentrated .

Bang!

In a flash, Wang Chong plunged into the searing Pure Gold Magma .

So hot!

Wang Chong was flabbergasted .

Ordinary magma would have had no effect on Wang Chong’s Origin Spirit, but upon entering the Pure Gold Magma, Wang Chong could clearly sense the consumption of his Psychic Energy multiplying .

It was evident that Pure Gold Magma was not like ordinary magma .

At this speed, his Origin Spirit wouldn’t last the full four hours, and he would have to return shortly .

Wang Chong rushed through the Pure Gold Magma .

At a depth of six hundred thousand feet, the Pure Gold Magma formed a sea .

Thirty thousand feet, sixty thousand feet, one hundred and eighty thousand feet…

Rumble!

A great rumbling entered his ears, and Wang Chong finally managed to sense that ancient divine embryo that had once dazzled and stunned the people of the apocalyptic era, inciting a massive battle .

Impossible!

Within the Pure Gold Magma, as Wang Chong spotted that giant divine embryo floating within a ball of multicolored light, he couldn’t help but be stunned .

Even though he had heard countless tales, this was Wang Chong’s first time seeing this unbelievable giant divine embryo for himself .

The divine embryo radiated multicolored light which extended for fifty feet in all directions, taking the form of a chicken . And inside this chicken was the divine embryo .

Though it was called a divine embryo, it was no embryo at all, but a completely mature body .

From Wang Chong’s perspective, the divine embryo appeared to be covered in an azure suit of armor . It was thirty-some feet tall, equivalent to four or five adult humans stacked on top of each other . The divine embryo was bursting with unbelievably powerful and primordial energy . Wang Chong estimated that the level of this energy exceeded the Subtle realm .

It was clear that this was a universal level of energy .

Not only that, in his Origin Spirit form, Wang Chong could sense the laws of the world extending like threads of a silkworm through space and converging on the divine embryo .

Most importantly, Wang Chong could not sense any sort of Stellar Energy or martial art on this divine embryo .

A diamond in the rough!

This was undoubtedly a completely natural and unembellished divine embryo, something countless martial artists could only dream about .

Judging by its energy ripples, if it could be successfully refined and turned into a clone, one could instantly transcend the Subtle realm .

The wonders of the world are truly miraculous! It can have things like Wootz Steel that can produce magical patterns when forged into weapons, as well as mysterious and incredible existences like this divine embryo!

Wang Chong couldn’t help but sigh in praise upon seeing this legendary object .

A divine embryo!

This was Wang Chong’s target for this expedition!

If he could get the divine embryo, all he would need to do was pour his energy into it, refining it and allowing him to swiftly approach the Grotto Heaven realm .

Wang Chong was even confident that he could soon break into the Grotto Heaven realm, and shortly after that, he would have the strength needed to fight back against Genesis Supreme .

With the divine embryo, Wang Chong no longer needed to fear Genesis Supreme, and so long as ‘Heaven’ did not appear, Wang Chong would not need to hide in the capital . Instead of passively waiting, he could actively resist the Celestial God Organization, even wipe it out .

Buzz!

With this thought in mind, Wang Chong shot over to the divine embryo .

But when he was several dozen feet from the divine embryo, he felt intense danger .

Danger!

Wang Chong’s heart trembled as he came to a stop .

There was nothing here except surging flows of Pure Gold Magma . After looking around, he eventually set his eyes on the chicken-shaped aura of multicolored light around the divine embryo .

Any sort of natural treasure is protected by some unusual creature or other defensive barrier . Given how powerful the divine embryo is, it must have its own dangerous seals around it .

Buzz!

After a few moments of thought, Wang Chong sent out a sliver of Psychic Energy from his Origin Spirit and sent it shooting forward .

Psychic Thorn!

This was the simplest form of Psychic Energy attack . But given how condensed Wang Chong’s Psychic Energy was, this simple attack could shatter stone .

Bang!

Wang Chong’s Psychic Thorn shot forward like a bolt of lightning and crashed into the chicken-shaped barrier around the divine embryo .
