Chapter 1102: Origin

Qin Qipeng and Yu Xianxue exchanged a glance, both seeing the doubt and uncertainty in each other's eyes.

Such a dangerous place, yet Xiang Beichen still wanted them to go; there must be a reason they couldn't refuse.

Although the two considered themselves Geniuses, they were well aware that an existence at the level of an Origin Ancestor was far beyond their reach at this point.

Noticing their hesitation, Xiang Beichen smiled faintly: "As your Master, I understand what you're thinking. Since that's the case, I'll be honest with you. Although this world has only revealed the tip of the iceberg, it's almost certainly the world of an Origin Ancestor. But getting in won't be easy!"

Xiang Beichen flicked his finger, using his magic power to outline a hazy light and shadow in mid-air.

This light and shadow seemed to be a world, vast and boundless, stretching as far as the eye could see.

"This is the Origin Ancestor's world. Some have already entered and mapped out part of it. Just this region alone holds immense Opportunities; you could say it's a Treasure Trove everywhere. But at the same time, it comes with great danger."

Xiang Beichen said solemnly: "It's unclear if it's because the Origin Ancestor hasn't fully awakened, but most life in this world is in a dormant state. As long as they aren't artificially disturbed, there isn't much danger. However, some areas have natural barriers. To enter, there are only two methods: either Breakthrough with brute force, or follow the rules within. Otherwise, you'll inevitably alert the Origin Ancestor's creatures nearby!"

Qin Qipeng couldn't help but ask: "Could it be that even with Master's cultivation level, you can't enter?"

Xiang Beichen shook his head: "What kind of figure is an Origin Ancestor? They stand at the peak of the Myriad Realms. I'm only at the True Spirit Realm, still far from reaching the Ancestral Spirit Realm. The most ordinary creatures in the Origin Ancestor's world are at the Immortal Realm, and those guarding special regions are at the Eternal Realm or above, even up to the True Spirit Realm or Ancestral Spirit Realm! Trying to force your way in with brute strength is too dangerous!"

Hearing this, Qin Qipeng and Yu Xianxue couldn't help but gasp.

What!

The most ordinary creatures are at the Immortal Realm?

Are you kidding!

Is this the so-called Origin Ancestor's world?

That's too exaggerated!

So all their years of hard work Cultivating only made them equivalent to the most ordinary creatures in the Origin Ancestor's world?

This was truly disheartening.

But on second thought, the Origin Ancestor's world had evolved for who knows how many years, and the Origin Ancestor themselves had long since transformed into a life form beyond normal comprehension. Their Origin world had naturally undergone countless years of evolution, and so had its creatures.

Hearing Xiang Beichen say this, Qin Qipeng and Yu Xianxue immediately understood.

Although Xiang Beichen's strength had reached the True Spirit Realm, even surpassing the Eternal Realm of ancient giants, in the Origin Ancestor's world, it was nothing special.

Even if the guardians of the barriers were only at the Eternal Realm, forcing their way in would inevitably awaken a large number of creatures nearby. If more creatures emerged, even someone as strong as Xiang Beichen might not be able to handle it.

"Then… what are the rules Master mentioned?"

Yu Xianxue couldn't help but ask.

Xiang Beichen's eyes flickered: "It's not clear yet, but based on my speculation, the most likely way to enter the barrier silently is 'Origin'!"

Origin?

Qin Qipeng and Yu Xianxue were stunned.

What was this?

Xiang Beichen explained: "Origin, to put it simply, is innate talent! For example, your Ancient Sacred Body—this is your own Origin, your life level. Only when your life level reaches this point do you have the entry qualification to enter that barrier!"

Qin Qipeng and Yu Xianxue widened their eyes.

There was such a thing?

Xiang Beichen nodded: "You've been part of my Desolate God Tower for so many years and have learned much about its history. After our founder, the Desolate God, fell, this world scattered, and many resources were lost. But there are still places we can't access, precisely because they found, or couldn't Breakthrough, those barriers!"

Desolate God!

Qin Qipeng and Yu Xianxue suddenly realized.

Over the years, although they spent most of their time Cultivating in the Desolate God Tower, they had been taken to a few places by the Tower Master and several high-ranking members. The Tower Master and others waited outside to guide them, while they entered alone.

Before, they didn't understand why, thinking it was the Desolate God Tower deliberately training them. Now they realized it was because those places couldn't be forced through either.

Seeing the change in their expressions, Xiang Beichen smiled: "It seems you've figured it out. Yes, the barriers left by Founder Desolate God also require a strong 'Origin,' meaning better talent to qualify for entry. I've already surveyed the places you went to before and eliminated all threatening creatures around them, so I felt safe letting you go!"

"Now, with the Origin Ancestor's world showing a similar situation to Founder Desolate God's, that's why I have this speculation."

His gaze fixed intently on the two, eager for a response: "I've trained you for so many years, even imparting many of the Desolate God Tower's Divine Abilities and secret manuals. Now is the time for you to repay me."

At this point, Qin Qipeng and Yu Xianxue had little room to refuse, at least not now.

With Xiang Beichen's strength, killing them would only require a flick of his finger.

There was a full two major Realms difference between them!

The two didn't even have time to send a message to Qin Changqing.

The Desolate God Tower was no charitable organization. Having guarded the Desolate God's Great World for so long in such a harsh environment, they had long stopped caring about human warmth, focusing only on their own interests.

Perhaps before, Xiang Beichen had indeed been very hopeful about their future, wanting to train them. But now, with the Origin Ancestor's world appearing, Qin Qipeng and Yu Xianxue had value as sacrifices, so he naturally wouldn't hesitate.

"We Disciples are willing to share Master's worries."

The two bowed in unison.

Seeing them agree, Xiang Beichen immediately showed a satisfied smile.

He didn't want to force this either, as once they entered the barrier, they would be beyond his control. If they didn't collect resources and treasures then, there would be nothing he could do.

After gaining their own Origin world, using secret methods to control them would become extremely difficult, unless he could control their true spirit.

Even with Xiang Beichen's strength, controlling the two would require a lot of time and effort, and there was no time for that now.

"Excellent, you truly haven't disappointed me!"

Xiang Beichen chuckled and nodded: "Stay with me for now. In three days, we'll set out together! Don't worry, I won't treat you poorly on this trip. You'll get a tenth of the resources and treasures we obtain!"

A tenth!

Qin Qipeng and Yu Xianxue sneered inwardly.

We're the ones stepping into danger, and you only offer a tenth? You really have the nerve to say it!
