Though Primordial Unity Peak had not fallen completely, more than half the mountain had split apart.
The immortal palaces once wreathed in clouds and rosy light were reduced to broken walls, and the white jade stairway to the summit had snapped into dozens of pieces.
Qin Wencang led the others through the ruins and into an ancient cave dwelling deep within Primordial Unity Peak.
At its center lay the Primordial Unity Immortal Pool, ten thousand zhang across.
But the pool had nearly dried up. Only a shallow puddle of Chaos Spirit Liquid remained at its center.
An old man with white hair and beard sat cross-legged in the middle of the pool, his body gaunt.
He wore a tattered Daoist robe. A gruesome saber wound ran across his chest from his left shoulder to his right abdomen.
Blood-red demonic flames blazed within the wound, steadily eating away at his body and Primordial Spirit.
Worse still, the shadow of his Dao Fruit, like a chaotic sun behind his head, was riddled with cracks.
It looked ready to shatter at any moment!
"Greetings, Ancestor!"
Qin Wencang, Ye Wudao, and the members of the Primordial Unity Immortal Sect bowed together.
Li Qingshan and Chu Yingluo also saluted the old man with clasped hands.
The old man before them was none other than the founder of the Primordial Unity Immortal Sect, the Primordial Unity Immortal King!
He had also been the Chosen Immortal King's closest friend.
His Dao Fruit had long since undergone its fourth transformation, and he had cultivated the Primordial Unity Great Dao to the very pinnacle of a Peerless Immortal King. He was only one step from becoming a Half-Step Immortal Emperor.
With the sect's Sect Protection Array and supreme immortal artifact, he could even contend with a Half-Step Immortal Emperor
