Chapter 1989: Chapter 879: The Ancient Axe of Realm Venerable, Source Wisdom Corpse

Behind him, the Extreme Ancient World shuddered as the Ten Thousand Paths roared in unison. This myriad of movements was even more intense than when he manipulated it with his Heavenly Tao body.

The shock on the Daoist Immortal Great Venerable’s face gradually turned into horror.

He already knew what exactly the black axe in Hongjun’s hand was.

Realm Venerate Ancient Artifact.

This was an ancient artifact that only a Realm Venerate could wield, or rather, it was a weapon belonging to half-step transcendents or even Transcendents.

In Chaos, such a weapon was already at the pinnacle, enough to attract countless Realm Venerates to fight over it.

As for its original owner, it couldn’t be more obvious: it was the weapon of the fallen Extreme Ancient Great World Master.

Therefore, the appearance of this ancient axe had triggered the Extreme Ancient Phenomenon.

Daoist Immortal Great Venerable had never met the legendary Extreme Ancient Great World Master. After all, by the time he was born, the Great World Master had long fallen.

Yet, he was not unfamiliar with the aura of that master.

Because the root of his existence, the Extreme Ancient Heavenly Tao itself, was imprinted with the aura of the Great World Master.

Even the Origin Land was suffused with that aura.

He felt a mixture of reverence and longing for the fallen Great World Master. Reverence, because the master was unimaginably powerful; longing, because he desired to become the Great World Master and inherit everything from him.

It was this longing that had driven him to grow stronger, leading to this final battle today.

Despite being thoroughly prepared, facing a Realm Venerate Ancient Artifact still filled his heart with tension.

Additionally.

What shocked the Daoist Immortal more was that during the battle with the Master of the Chaotic Ancient Immortal Mausoleum, Hongjun hadn’t wielded this Realm Venerate Ancient Artifact.

Could it be that the opponent had anticipated this and had been guarding against him all along?

At this moment, Daoist Immortal Great Venerable admitted he had underestimated Hongjun.

Not far away, Han Yi was also shocked upon seeing Hongjun take out an ancient artifact that didn’t fit his cultivation system, triggering the Extreme Ancient Phenomenon.

"Hiss!"

"A Realm Venerate Ancient Artifact, this is actually a Realm Venerate Ancient Artifact."

"Judging by the reaction of the Extreme Ancient Great World, this great axe should be the weapon of the Extreme Ancient Great World Master."

It was Han Yi’s first time seeing a Realm Venerate Ancient Artifact.

Hongjun held the great axe lightly in his hand and it didn’t grow larger. It remained over two meters long, appearing as an ordinary black axe, simple and unadorned.

Yet with a slight swing, a black axe light flashed by. Though it was only a meter wide, it silently sheared off a corner of the Origin Tao Seal blocking the Seven-colored Festival Cloud.

The broken corner of the Origin Tao Seal erupted with chaotic energy.

With just one swing, the ancient seal, which was of peak ancient artifact level, was heavily damaged. Though not completely shattered, its power was significantly diminished.

And the axe light didn’t stop there, its residual force continued toward the Daoist Immortal Great Venerable.

Daoist Immortal Great Venerable took a deep breath, his face turned extremely grave. With a gentle exhale, a Spirit Pearl emitting white mist emerged from his mouth.

As soon as the Spirit Pearl appeared, the surrounding chaotic space-time seemed to be paused, all energy settled down.

In the distance, Han Yi’s expression changed.

"Another Realm Venerate Ancient Artifact?"

"No, that’s not right."

Despite the distance, Han Yi could still see the palm-sized Spirit Pearl had three faint cracks on its surface.

This was a damaged Realm Venerate Ancient Artifact.

Before it shattered, it might have had limited uses, or its power might have diminished significantly from its peak state.

Nevertheless.

Noting that the appearance of this Spirit Pearl hadn’t triggered any phenomenon in the Extreme Ancient Great World, Han Yi concluded that the Spirit Pearl was not one of the Great World Master’s artifacts, but something the Daoist Immortal Great Venerable had obtained from another place in the Chaos Realm.

In the Taoist Spirit Chaos World, the Nine Great Dao Domains had seen countless Overlord Level forces perish over the chaotic eras, so it wasn’t uncommon for Realm Venerates to fall. Their ancient artifacts either shattered, were claimed by others, or were lost in some obscure corner of the Chaos Realm.

Apparently, this Spirit Pearl of the Daoist Immortal Great Venerable came from some past overlord-level force that had perished in the annals of time.

As the white mist Spirit Pearl appeared, it headed straight for the axe light.

The axe light cleaved through the chaos, landing on the Spirit Pearl.

Boom!!

A terrifying energy tide erupted, swiftly and violently, surpassing even the thoughts of an ordinary Heavenly Sovereign. From the distance, Han Yi, although protected, instinctively squinted to shield his eyes from the onrushing chaotic torrent.

Crack!!

A faint cracking sound arose, and half-squinting Han Yi saw through the turbulent energy that the cracks on the Spirit Pearl had increased from three to four under the axe light.

The strike from the Realm Venerate great axe had further damaged the already broken Realm Venerate Spirit Pearl.

With the Spirit Pearl deployed, Daoist Immortal Great Venerable’s face turned even graver. He suddenly shouted toward a certain direction:

"If not now, when?"

His sudden shout caught everyone off guard, not just Han Yi, but also some Heavenly Sovereigns who had escaped from the Extreme Ancient Great World, like Chonglou Heavenly Sovereign, as well as many Heavenly Sovereigns still in the Extreme Ancient World, guarding their own domains and not daring to leave. Even Hongjun, wielding the black great axe, was surprised.

Everyone turned to look where the Daoist Immortal Great Venerable had yelled.
