Deep beneath the Ordon Sanctuary, massive, rectangular stones have formed a spacious cavern, where clear Flowing Water flows quietly, converging into a bottomless pool.
Rather than a sewer, it was more of a deliberately constructed cover, concealing the secret base of the Infinite Dragonflight beneath the pool.
Immerseus realized that Wrathion was very dangerous and that he would eventually discover the truth, so he immediately began the killing spree after Wrathion left.
Wrathion's mist was forcibly poured into the Orcs, causing thousands of Orcs to explode and die. To Immerseus, those blurred flesh and blood were an unparalleled delicacy.
Immerseus devoured flesh and blood imbued with the power of the mist, and slaughtered tens of thousands of Orcs, forming a colossal body capable of containing the power of the mist.
Afterwards, he carefully chose his escape route. Time was of the essence, Immerseus believed there was no time to escape the Timeless Isle, so he fled to the Ordon Sanctuary in the north.
Immerseus's body stretched and moved forward like a large bubble; he seemed like a pool of red liquid, able to squeeze into even the smallest cracks.
Initially, when Immerseus attempted to enter the Ordon Sanctuary, he was mysteriously transported to the entrance. With nowhere else to go, Immerseus had to try again. He found a source of underground water and followed the river into the sewers.
A mysterious force once again brought Immerseus to the door. Immerseus hesitated for a moment; Wrathion could catch up at any moment, and there was no time left. He had no choice but to risk trying again.
The third attempt was successful. In the dark sewers, Immerseus stood in a deep pool, using the power of the water to nourish his body. His body swelled up, and his flesh and blood gradually transformed into Elemental Body.
The transformation process went very smoothly. In less than half a day, Immerseus's lower body had become pure Flowing Water, merging with the pool. Compared to the complex and fragile physical body, the pure elemental body was more suitable for Unity of Heaven and Humanity.
Just as Immerseus was feeling quite pleased with himself, a voice rang out.
The Infinite Dragonlord Murozond enormous Immerseus and said with slight surprise, "This is the result of Wrathion's research, an Elemental Spirits of mysterious origin."
Robbie and Vanessa also carefully examined the enormous creature; even when Murozond took on his Dragon form, he was not as massive as Immerseus.
Who are you?
Immerseus buzzed, a hint of worry in his voice.
Murozond sneered, "You should thank me. I allowed you into the sewers; otherwise, you wouldn't have escaped Wrathion's pursuit."
Immerseus scoffed dismissively:
"So you're the master of this place. Hmph, you're too late. My elemental transformation is about to succeed. Compared to a weak flesh and blood body, an elemental body is far more perfect. I have already merged with the underground water of the Timeless Isle. How can you possibly defeat me?"
"We'll have to try to find out." Murozond waved his hand and threw out a Temporal Bomb.
Immerseus's body exploded, and countless pieces of slime scattered rapidly towards the pool, only to gather together again—this was the power of his Unity of Heaven and Humanity.
"A powerful blow, but utterly ineffective," Immerseus said smugly. "You're not fighting me, you're fighting the Flowing Waters of the Timeless Isle."
"Oh, oh, what amazing power!"
Murozond pondered Anjing, as if he had grasped something, and muttered to himself:
"My Time Domain is Unity of Heaven and Humanity, and merging with the flow of water is also oneness with Unity of Heaven and Humanity. It turns out there isn't just one path; all paths can achieve Unity of Heaven and Humanity. Is this what is meant by the unity of All Things as One? Unity of Heaven and Humanity is an end point, not just a single path."
Immerseus, unaware of the terrifying nature of the enemy he faced, shouted:
"I have no idea what you're talking about. Leave here, and your home will be mine."
Robbie's eyes took in Point, Line, and Planes as he carefully observed the composition of Immerseus's energy. He shook his head and said, "His power of Unity of Heaven and Humanity isn't perfect. A little trick is all it takes to defeat him."
The scorching Power of the Holy Light shone on Immerseus's body, and the massive form quickly shattered into countless pieces of soft mud. Robbie threw out another Holy Light, evaporating some of the mud.
When Immerseus rejoined, he seemed much weaker and pleaded:
"Don't kill me, we can talk this over."
After thinking for a long time, Murozond threatened:
"I have already discerned your weaknesses. If you behave well enough, I might consider letting you go. Now, tell me about your origins. I must warn you, don't even think about deceiving the Dragon King who knows the past and future."
Immerseus, seemingly unaware of the Dragon King, answered hesitantly:
"I was originally a water spirit born from the energy pool of the Vale of Eternal Blossoms. The magical water nourished my body, making me stronger and stronger, and gradually giving me sentience."
Murozond raised his right hand, using Immerseus as a clue to trace history, and a clear picture appeared before everyone.
Countless ages ago, in the beautiful Vale of Eternal Blossoms, in a magical pool, a water sprite was slowly growing.
"It seems you weren't lying. Continue," Murozond low voice.
Immerseus was surprised by Murozond's power, and his tone became much more respectful:
"I am a being born of nature, using my own magic to nourish the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, and using the power of Flowing Water to heal the wounds and illnesses of the creatures of the Vale of Eternal Blossoms. Until one day, a blue Cloud Serpent descended from the sky, floated by the pond, and discussed the Dao with me."
Murozond frowned and tentatively asked, "The August Celestials?"
Immerseus spoke in a tone of remembrance:
"That's right, it was Yu'lon, one of the August Celestials. At that time, my mind was incredibly pure. Yu'lon explained to me the Dao Follows Nature and the Unity of Heaven and Humanity. When she spoke of the most profound things, her words flowed like lotus flowers, and clear springs gushed from the earth. I was deeply impressed. In this vast world, there are still such profound principles."
Then, Immerseus's tone changed, and he said with resentment:
"Naive me, I was unaware that I had fallen into the conspiracy of the August Celestials. Xuen, Chi-Ji, and Niuzao often taught me the Great Dao, especially the profound realm of the unity of Unity of Heaven and Humanity, which filled my heart with longing. In order to achieve the unity of Unity of Heaven and Humanity, I frantically absorbed the magic power in the pool, and my body grew larger and larger, dominating the entire waters of the Vale of Vale of Eternal Blossoms. I was still not satisfied, and my heart was filled with greed. Under the instigation of the August Celestials, the ambitious me began to inhale the mists of Pandaria."
Immerseus said with lingering fear:
"As the mist from the sky poured into my body, I realized my mistake. Before my eyes appeared the sinister smiles of the August Celestials. My enormous body collapsed, and terrifying magic, out of control, transformed into a catastrophe that swept through the Valley of Eternal Vale of Eternal Blossoms. I grew lighter and lighter, sucked into the mist. Yes, I finally achieved Unity of Heaven and Humanity, but I also lost my freedom."
Murozond muttered in astonishment, "Could it be that Unity of Heaven and Humanity with the heavens means merging with the mist? Immerseus, what exactly is in the mist?"
Immerseus looked horrified and said in terror:
"Countless, densely packed, wandering Restless Souls, each incredibly powerful, with bizarre appearances—I've never seen anything like them before."
