True Martial World
Chapter 1507: Secret of the Stone Chamber

"There's no need to worry… I still have some life left in me." Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness thought nothing of his situation. "Compared to the sacrifice of Pure Yang, Kun Peng… I've considered to have lingered on for quite some time…"

Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness's voice was weak, like a candle in the wind.

Yi Yun sighed lightly. From what he presently knew, only Bai Yueyin was the least injured among the eight Godly Monarchs of ancient times.

"Senior, I'm really sorry for trespassing here, disturbing you from recuperating." Yi Yun cupped his fists.

Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness said, "You did not disturb me. I was the one who summoned you…"

"Then, might I know what you summoned me for?"

Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness did not instantly give a reply. He fell silent for nearly a minute before saying faintly, "This world is a sealed land, but now, it's on the brink of destruction…"

"Oh?" Yi Yun was taken aback. "I do not understand. Senior, is the world that is about to be destroyed the ancient battlefield or this primeval universe that is filled with nebulous Primordial Chaos?"

"It's the same… The existence of the ancient battlefield relies on this primeval universe. In the battle with the Ancestor God hundreds of millions of years ago, it was also the cause of the conflict over this primeval universe. The ancient battlefield is the passage world that connects the primeval universe to the Sinkhole…"

"So that's how it is…" Yi Yun never knew of such a secret. "Then, what secret does the primeval universe have? Senior, since you knew of the existence of this primeval universe, why did you not extract the Chaos Gem mineral vein, but instead built a stone chamber here?"

"This stone chamber… was not built by me…" Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness's voice was raspy. Yi Yun's words seemed to trigger in him endless sad memories.

"The person who created this stone chamber is someone else. His strength far exceeds the limits of one's imagination. It has even surpassed that of the Martial Dao itself…"

"Surpassed that of the Martial Dao itself?" Yi Yun held his breath. This was an evaluation given by Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness. For a Godly Monarch to give such an evaluation, Yi Yun could not even fathom how powerful that person was. "There are experts above the eight Godly Monarchs? Is he human?"

"Yes… He comes from another world and he came seeking a woman. You are somewhat related to him too. Years ago, he planted a tiny tree and this tree eventually grew to become the Azure Wood Divine Tree…"

Azure Wood Divine Tree!

Yi Yun held his breath. The Azure Wood Divine Tree was actually planted by that person.

Furthermore, from what Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness said, the person came from a different world. For Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness to call it a different world, it was definitely not like the difference between the 12 Empyrean Heavens and the Sinkhole. It was likely referring to a completely independent universe that stood separate from the universe where the Sinkhole resided…

For instance… the universe where Earth resided.

Having come to this world after so much time, he had basically come to the belief that the universe where Earth resided in was completely different from the universe he was now in. The difference stemmed from the different laws of Physics. This world did not have the technology of Earth, while Earth did not have the Martial Dao of this world.

A peerless expert from an unknown universe had come to this universe to seek a mysterious woman!

What sort of person was he?

Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness added, "This woman has extraordinary strength. She too has a little connection with you. She is Huan Chenxue's master—Empress Sheng Mei!

Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness's words left Yi Yun stifled. Huan Chenxue's master…

For some baffling reason, he recalled of two people. Back when Yi Yun learned the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence, he had seen two figures in the Purple Crystal.

One was a long-hair man and the other, a black-dressed woman!

The man held a spear that could manifest into a world.

As for the black-dressed woman, she had a beautiful figure and her aura was ethereal. She looked like a goddess that came from primordial periods. In the Purple Crystal hallucination, Yi Yun saw the black-dressed woman tap her fingers a total of nine times, forming nine ripples that condensed to form nine petals. Together, they formed a Nine Transformations Red Lotus.

The 3000 Great Dao had countless laws, but the laws had different grades too. Back then, Yi Yun sensed that the red lotus contained the laws of Origins.

Due to Yi Yun's limited realm and insights back then, he could only feel that the long-haired man and the black-dressed woman were powerful as though they exceeded life's natural order.

Yi Yun guessed that the man and woman might have even been the previous owners of the Purple Crystal.

Later on, when Yi Yun entered the Azure Wood Great World, he encountered a waning sect. The sect had a final successor named Yue Yingsha.

Yue Yingsha could also cast the Nine Transformations Red Lotus. Although its strength was far inferior, there was definitely no mistake with the aura. Yi Yun had determined back then that the Azure Wood Manor which Yue Yingsha was from had obtained heritage related to the black-dressed woman.

As for the Azure Wood Divine Tree, it happened to be the Azure Wood Manor's totem.

This coincidence naturally had some inkling of a connection. For instance, now that the Azure Wood Divine Tree was planted by that mysterious man, all of these seemed to make sense.

Yue Yingsha had also mentioned the origins of the Nine Transformations Red Lotus heritage. It came from the—Door to the 33 Skies.

The Door to the 33 Skies was one that led to another world to begin with. It could be the entrance from the 12 Empyrean Heavens to another world, and this entrance happened to lead to the Azure Wood Great World.

Since the Azure Wood Great World was also known as the Door to the 33 Skies, could it be that the long-haired man, or Empress Sheng Mei, came from a world named the 33 Skies?

The Azure Wood Divine Tree went into slumber after that ancient battle. It chose the Azure Wood Great World, its birthplace as its final resting ground, also as a remembrance for the person that planted it…

Yi Yun understood many things instantly.

Hundreds of millions of years ago, the mysterious man had broken through the universes' barriers and passed through the Door to the 33 Skies in the Azure Wood Great World and into the 12 Empyrean Heavens. He planted the Azure Wood Divine Tree in order to find Empress Sheng Mei!

Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness said regretfully, "When Goddess Sheng Mei as well as that person who came from a different universe come to this universe, this universe was still barren back then in many places. Martial arts had only just begun. The person chose a few disciples and left behind some heritage. Nearly all the handful of disciples later became Godly Monarchs. They established their sects and taught disciples. That person can be deemed as the Dao Ancestor of humans. Later, we honored him by calling the Dao Originator Heavenly Thearch."

"Following Dao Originator Heavenly Thearch's entry after Empress Sheng Mei were a young red-dressed girl and a tiny black dragon. However, due to it being such ancient history, as well as how the man did not wish to leave behind traces of his existence in this world, there are almost no records of him in the history books."

"But in the ancient desolate period, humans were not without enemy. That is the Ancestor God. They come from another universe. The life in that universe has countless demonic servants apart from the Ancestor God… Dao Originator Heavenly Thearch defeated the Ancestor God and sealed the Ancestor God's universe as well as that world's passageway."

Seal?

Once this was said, Yi Yun's heart trembled. Could it be…

"That's right. The primeval universe you currently stand in is where the seal is!"
