At the heart of the tomb stood a coffin, and inside it lay a strange man.
No power seemed to stir within him. He was like a boundless expanse of emptiness.
Untouched by karma, free of tribulation, he seemed as though he should not exist in this world.
Now he slowly opened his eyes, and a deep voice echoed.
"Has the Future Dharma Body finally returned?"
"The Way of Void?"
"So that's it. This is the opportunity my future holds for me."
"Truth and Void, borne by the will of my current Dharma Body—a pure will beyond all Principle. I may truly be able to break through the True Dao Extremity Realm."
"I chose the right path!" The mysterious being slowly rose. Nothing emanated from him but pure will.
Will was a pure thing born of the mind, and the mind was the only thing in this world that could create something from nothing.
Will was an outgrowth of the mind, yet this mysterious figure had cultivated pure will to a level that rivaled the True Spirit Extremity Realm.
His gaze traveled far toward the Mysterious Immortal and the others.
Then he looked beyond the True Realm, his gaze settling on the mysterious God of Myriad Gods.
"God of Myriad Gods. True Dao—Divine Essence. The True Dao Extremity Realm of my Past Dharma Body!"
"With my will, neither true nor void, bearing past and future, Truth and Void—this is my chance to break through!"
No one would have imagined that the Mysterious Immortal and the God of Myriad Gods were two Dharma Bodies of the same person. His origins were staggering.
Li Qing had suspected there was more to the Mysterious Immortal's origins, but even he would never have imagined they were so ancient and mysterious.
