Fairy Dao Hai let out a cry of surprise, and then blurted out words.
"The Primordial Destiny Stone?"
"The Primordial Destiny Stone?!"
The moment those words left Fairy Dao Hai's lips, Chu Feng, Wang Yuxian, and everyone present turned their gazes toward her, waiting for her to explain the origins of this Primordial Destiny Stone.
"There exists an era even more ancient than the Ancient Era — the Primordial Era."
"According to legend, during the Primordial Era, there existed a stone that could not only measure a person's talent, but also their fortune and destiny."
"If someone could make that stone emit a single ray of light, it meant they possessed extraordinary talent."
"If someone could make it emit two rays of light, it meant they not only had extraordinary talent but were also blessed with great fortune."
"And if someone could make it emit three rays of light, that person was not only remarkable in their own right, but could change the world."
"They would be one chosen by the Heavens!!!"
"That is why... this stone is known as the Primordial Destiny Stone — one of the most powerful artifacts in this world, in the vast martial cultivation world, for testing talent."
Fairy Dao Hai explained.
"As expected of Senior Fairy Dao Hai, to know so much about this treasure."
The moment Fairy Dao Hai finished speaking, Zhang Yingxiong began clapping and praising her.
However, that smug look on his face — on the surface it appeared to be praise for Fairy Dao Hai, but in reality, it seemed more like he was praising himself.
After all, this Primordial Destiny Stone belonged to him.
"I have seen records of the Primordial Destiny Stone in multiple ancient scrolls and ruins, but I have never seen one in reality."
"Young friend, can you confirm that this... is definitely the Primordial Destiny Stone?"
Fairy Dao Hai asked.
Although she knew of this legendary artifact, even with her abilities, she still could not verify its authenticity.
"Heh heh..."
Zhang Yingxiong chuckled, then looked at Chu Feng, Fairy Dao Hai, and Wang Yuxian.
"Senior Fairy Dao Hai, Brother Chu Feng, Miss Wang — watch closely now."
When his gaze fell upon Wang Yuxian, he even gave a wink.
That flirtatious expression made Wang Yuxian's smile freeze, and her beautiful brows furrowed slightly.
Clearly, Wang Yuxian was not fond of Zhang Yingxiong.
But Zhang Yingxiong didn't care. Instead, he let out a hearty laugh and walked toward the so-called Primordial Destiny Stone.
After approaching it, he first formed a special Technique — using the Technique together with an incantation to construct a small formation that condensed at his fingertip.
With a light tap, as fingertip met stone, the formation at his fingertip sank into the Primordial Destiny Stone.
The Technique and incantation seemed simple, but they were actually extraordinary — a profoundly mysterious method.
Hummm— Sure enough, the moment that tiny formation flowed into the Primordial Destiny Stone, the stone began to tremble, and a barrier gate appeared.
The barrier gate was not particularly large — only one meter tall and half a meter wide, an elliptical shape, rotating, positioned in the middle of the Primordial Destiny Stone.
After all, the stone itself was only about three meters tall, so the gate was quite small.
Under normal circumstances, to enter such a barrier gate, one would have to crawl into the Primordial Destiny Stone.
But the moment the barrier gate appeared, before Zhang Yingxiong even moved, a suction force enveloped him. His body — clearly much larger than the gate — turned into a shadow before everyone's eyes and was pulled inside the barrier gate.
"What a wondrous Destiny Stone."
Chu Feng gazed at the Primordial Destiny Stone and let out another exclamation.
The reason for his admiration was that Chu Feng had noticed the barrier gate contained Zhang Yingxiong's aura — it was like a door crafted specifically for Zhang Yingxiong. Without being him, no one else could have entered that barrier gate.
Hummm— Suddenly, the complex runes atop the Primordial Destiny Stone...
