Just as the atmosphere outside the Myriad Ancient Pagoda had become taut with hostility, thick with terror, Lu Yunxiao's gaze suddenly sharpened within the tower.
Light gathered before him, finally forming an aged figure of light. It was none other than the consciousness of the Myriad Ancient Pagoda.
This Myriad Ancient Pagoda had appeared directly before him from that mysterious space.
The aged figure looked at Lu Yunxiao and seemed to smile in gratification. "Congratulations. You will become the new master of the Eternal Undying Body."
Ripples stirred in Lu Yunxiao's eyes as he cupped his hands toward the aged figure.
Having guarded the Eternal Undying Body for countless years, the consciousness of the Myriad Ancient Pagoda before him had rendered immense service.
Now that he had obtained the Eternal Undying Body, Lu Yunxiao owed the Myriad Ancient Pagoda's consciousness a measure of gratitude.
Seeing Lu Yunxiao's gesture, the hazy figure chuckled and continued, "You have obtained the Eternal Undying Body, but the Immortal Emperor once left behind another gift."
"It was specially reserved for the new master of the Eternal Undying Body."
"A gift?"
Lu Yunxiao raised a brow.
The aged figure smiled and lightly waved a hand. The world around them immediately changed, eventually transforming into an ancient golden starry sky filled with countless glittering stars.
Dark golden mist pervaded the starry sky. Mysterious and profound, it carried an immortal aura. It was clearly condensed from Immortal Origin.
The aged figure spoke calmly. "Although you have now obtained the Eternal Undying Body and become its new master..."
"There is still a barrier between you and the Eternal Undying Body, making it difficult for you to wield its true power."
"You may be able to remove that barrier yourself, but it would take quite some time."
Lu Yunxiao nodded.
