The terrifying aura of the Saint Venerable Realm spread out, pressing down on Wang Xu like a mountain, almost suffocating him.

"Hei Ya! Divine Wind! Defeat Lan!"

Three Saint Venerable Realm puppets appeared in front of Wang Xu in an instant, but this terrifying attack shattered them to pieces, their spirituality extinguished, leaving them as three mindless, broken puppets.

"Not dead?" a raspy and unfamiliar voice said unexpectedly.

Wang Xu had no time to react when a beam of white light lit up the entire sky!

The terrifying aura of the Saint Venerable Realm swept over again.

The feeling of danger and death seeped deep into Wang Xu's bones, his subconscious telling him that if he were hit by this strike, he would have no chance of survival!

"God-Suppressing!"

The ancient desolate aura spread, and Wang Xu's entire body radiated extreme golden light.

Rumble~

Amidst the golden light, a giant palm reached toward the white light.

"Hmm?" The raspy voice felt surprised again.

Boom!

However, even the giant palm of God-Suppressing could not withstand this dreadful white light.

"Ugh..."

Wang Xu spat a mouthful of blood as the terrifying power caused his body to collapse instantly.

A dark right hand appeared, and besides this hand, Wang Xu's Divine Body had no resistance and completely shattered, turning into blood rain with only a broken half body remaining.

"Damn it!" The raspy voice was unsettled.

After striking twice, he still couldn't kill even a single Celestial God Realm.

As he prepared for a third strike, an apocalyptic aura swept across billions of miles of heaven and earth!

"Daring to cause trouble within the Immortal Tang Divine Palace, have you grown tired of living?" A majestic and heavy voice, tinged with anger, resounded. This was within the Immortal Tang Divine Palace, and someone dared to attack its disciples, blatantly smearing its reputation!

"Retreat!" Another urgent voice called, and the raspy voice, though unwilling, chose a quick retreat.

In an instant, all pressure vanished, everything returning to calmness, as if the previous scene had never happened.

Wang Xu let out a sigh of relief.

"The person who attempted to assassinate me at the Saint Venerable Realm must have reached the Three Elements stage," Wang Xu thought.

For a Three Elements Saint Venerable to risk angering the Immortal Tang Divine Palace just to assassinate him, what could be their true motive?

With furrowed brows, Wang Xu's heart was shrouded in gloom.

"Wang Xu, are you alright?"

A moment later, from the void emerged a man in a fiery red robe, with a large belly, and a string of fiery red large Buddhist beads around his neck.

"Disciple greets the 'Fire Talisman Ancestor'!" Wang Xu respectfully saluted, "I owe my life to the timely intervention of Fire Talisman Ancestor; otherwise, this disciple would have surely perished at his hands."

A lingering trace of fear remained in Wang Xu's heart.

"As long as you're safe, come with me," Fire Talisman Ancestor said, waving a large hand, changing the surrounding scene, and transporting Wang Xu and the Fire Talisman Ancestor to a grand palace.

"Wang Xu." An authoritative voice came through, and Wang Xu looked over, immediately shocked.

"Disciple greets the Palace Master and all the uncles and masters!"

Wang Xu had arrived at the most sacred site within the Immortal Tang Divine Palace, the "Shengxiao Hall."

Once before, when Wang Xu was regarded as the most promising talent, he met the Ancestor Realm figures and the Palace Master of the Immortal Tang Divine Palace here; he never imagined his second visit would be under such circumstances.

"Wang Xu, be at ease. We brought you here to ask about the situation that just transpired, and what was the cause." The Immortal Tang Palace Master walked down from the Main Hall, approaching Wang Xu and speaking softly.

The Immortal Tang Palace Master appeared extremely solemn, and upon hearing this, Wang Xu realized this matter was not merely an assassination but had deeper implications.

"I had just returned from a gate world when Brother Fu Luo mentioned something important and invited me along. Unexpectedly, on our way, we were attacked, and my three puppets were destroyed on the spot. If not for the precious artifacts I carried, I would have perished right there and then." Wang Xu briefly recounted.

The Ancestor Realm individuals and the Immortal Tang Palace Master listened and pondered deeply.

"Wang Xu, do you know why they want to kill you?" Ancestor Ru Long asked sternly, "The Palace Master used time reversal to view the recent events and found out the attackers were two Three Elements Saint Venerables with unique identities, possessing items that could conceal them so well even the Palace Master couldn't see through... These signs do not bode well for you."

Two Three Elements Saint Venerables?!

Wang Xu felt his heart sink.

The Immortal Tang Divine Palace's Grand Protective Array was extremely tight, controlled by Ancestor Realm beings. Not even Saint Venerables, let alone Ancestor Realm individuals, could infiltrate silently... yet these two Three Elements Saint Venerables managed to do so, even escaping the Palace Master's notice initially.

This was enough to indicate these two were of considerable influence, surely with formidable backgrounds.

Wang Xu was even more worried that this assassination attempt had nearly cost him his life the first time around, and if it were to happen again, not even the intervention of the Ancestor Realm beings of Immortal Tang would rescue more than a fragment of his corpse.

"Such strength must come from great clans or a Divine Palace, but since joining Immortal Tang Divine Palace, I have never provoked major powers, so what would drive an assassination against me?"

Wang Xu pondered with great confusion.

This concerns his life, he absolutely cannot be careless.

"Wang Xu, there's no need to rush. Think carefully, has there been anything abnormal happening recently?" the Immortal Bai Ancestor reminded.

Everyone's gaze gathered on Wang Xu.

Two Primordial Saint Venerables evaded the Demon Suppression Ancestor's search, sneaking quietly into Immortal Tang to kill, and then leaving calmly afterward.

Initially, everyone believed this was the handiwork of other major powers.

From ancient times, many talented geniuses did not die during adventures but were killed by envious major forces.

Such things are not uncommon, and there have already been several precedents in the Immortal Tang Divine Palace.

However, this time was beyond everyone's expectations.

The Palace Master investigated these two people's origins, and discovered a truth that shocked them all — these two were not from the Fengye Chaos Cosmos!

At this moment, all the Ancestors finally realized that this was not merely about assassinating genius talents, but involved something that made everyone shiver.

"Palace Master!" Wang Xu suddenly spoke.

Everyone's gaze immediately focused on him.

"If I'm not mistaken, what I encountered might be related to this treasure."

Wang Xu flipped his hand, and a miniature Heaven-Reaching Tower hovered in his palm, displayed before everyone.

Hiss!

At the sight of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, all the Ancestors inhaled sharply, faces full of shock and disbelief!

"Swoosh!"

Even the always calm Immortal Tang Palace Master's pupils suddenly contracted, and almost instantly appeared before Wang Xu, taking the Heaven-Reaching Tower into his hands and examining it closely.

Moments later.

"It's real." The Immortal Tang Palace Master said solemnly, causing the entire Shengxiao Hall to explode into a frenzy!

"The Fragment of Destruction Truth!"

"That's right! I could never mistake it! This is the Fragment of Destruction Truth, I've seen it in ancient books!"

"Heavens! The Truth of Destruction really exists! The Three Great Ancient Soldiers of the Mechanical Race are not just legends!"

All the Ancestors turned flushed, exclaiming fervently.

The Mechanical Race, this once historically forgotten, with almost no records strong tribe, only left behind the legend of the Three Great Ancient Soldiers.

But a legend remains a legend, no one has ever verified its authenticity.

Even the existence of the Mechanical Race itself was a mystery.

However, the emergence of the Fragment of Destruction Truth at this moment clearly told everyone — the legend is real! The Three Great Ancient Soldiers do exist! The golden age of the Mechanical Race is not a fabrication!

"Wang Xu, where did you get this Fragment of Destruction Truth?" the Immortal Tang Palace Master took a deep breath and asked.

"From my world within a door." Wang Xu replied cautiously, "But you don't have to worry, I've searched that world thoroughly; there are no more fragments."

"So, you knew it was the Fragment of Destruction Truth all along." The Immortal Tang Divine Palace gave Wang Xu a deep look.

"Initially, I did not, but through a twist of fate, I learned its origin," Wang Xu said, "Palace Master, could it be that the assassination I encountered really is related to this Fragment of Destruction Truth?"

If indeed the opponent came for the Fragment of Destruction Truth, regardless of the outcome, at least Wang Xu wouldn't have to worry about a second assassination; the Ancient Luo Cosmos would also be preserved.

"If not unexpected, yes." the Immortal Tang Palace Master said with a grave expression.

Then, with the Immortal Tang Palace Master pressing his palm down, Shengxiao Hall quieted instantly.

"Everyone, this matter is significant; I hope that no one will divulge it, alright?" The Palace Master's face was stern, an authoritative voice and intimidating aura emanated.

"We obey the Palace Master's command!"

All the Ancestors understood and immediately vowed by the Law.

Even Wang Xu was no exception.

"Alright, Wang Xu, I'll keep this Fragment of Destruction Truth with me first, you all may leave." The Immortal Tang Palace Master finished speaking, and without waiting for a response, merged into the void along with the Heaven-Reaching Tower.

Subsequently, Wang Xu left Shengxiao Hall with all the Ancestors, watching as the doors of the Immortal Tang Holy Palace slowly shut, Wang Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The Fragment of Destruction Truth was a hot potato; if Wang Xu kept it in the Divine Country, it would sooner or later be targeted, so it was better to give it to the mightiest powerhouse and completely cut ties with it.

"But... I just recently acquired the Heaven-Reaching Tower, how did those people from the major powers know about it?"

This point left Wang Xu full of doubts.

But since the matter no longer concerned him, he didn't need to dwell on it.

"Hei Ya, Divine Wind, Beryl are all damaged, I need to go to the 'God Seed Pavilion' for repairs first."

Wang Xu turned into a stream of light, flying towards the direction of the God Seed Pavilion. (To be continued.
