Before long, he suddenly halted his movement, and the shark-shaped manifestation of Force on his body gradually dissipated.

“It seems like this is the lair of that universe-stage origin beast!” Wang Teng activated his Real Eye, and a brilliant golden light flashed in his eyes.

In this location, he didn’t conceal the ability of Real Eye, fully unleashing its power.

Scanning the surroundings, he noticed a massive opening underwater, pitch- black and entirely concealing its contents.

However, using his Real Eye, he saw a radiant blue light in the form of an orb.

“As expected!” Wang Teng was excited. Without hesitation, he swam directly into the cavern.

With the absence of the universe-stage origin beast, this pitch-black underwater cave held no danger. Wang Teng moved smoothly, reaching the deepest part of the cave.

A blue light appeared before Wang Teng’s eyes, within which was a blue­colored sphere.

“What’s this?” Wang Teng’s eyes gleamed, and he reached out.

The blue sphere flew towards Wang Teng and landed in the palm of his hand.

“A very concentrated constellation Water Force? And another… a life aura remarkably similar to an origin beast’s core.” Wang Teng’s eyes reflected a hint of curiosity as he murmured to himself.

“It seems like a Water Source Pearl!” Round Ball suddenly spoke.

“A Water Source Pearl? What’s that?” Wang Teng inquired.

“The Water Source Pearl is an extremely special water-element origin treasure. Do you know what an origin treasure is?” Round Ball asked.

“I know. Origin treasures involve the power of origin, forming a treasure with the condensed power of the origin. Hence, they are full of wonders, but also exceedingly rare and scarce.” Wang Teng nodded.

“Yes, the Water Source Pearl is a type of origin treasure. It contains a rich life force and has condensed the power of origin. It is said to be a treasure born alongside various celestial spirits during their creation. The celestial spirits absorb it during their gestation, gaining the life force and power of origin, gradually growing. No wonder a universe-stage origin beast exists here. You’re quite cunning, figuring all this out.” Round Ball explained.

“What do you mean by cunning? I call it clever, okay?” Wang Teng retorted.

“Tsk!” Round Ball rolled its eyes.

“But what’s the use of this thing? Can only be absorbed by celestial spirits? I only have the Lightning Spirit, and it seems unable to absorb this water­element treasure.” Wang Teng said.

“You can refine water-element elixirs or use it for a soon-to-be-born water­element celestial beast.” Round Ball suggested.

“Not bad at all. I’ll take it without hesitation.” Wang Teng grinned, pocketing the Water Source Pearl. Then, his gaze swept across the surroundings, and he spotted another item. He couldn’t help but let out a soft exclamation.

In a corner of the cave, on a stone table, there was an ancient-looking scroll. It was inconspicuous, and if Wang Teng hadn’t taken a careful look, he might have missed it.

Wang Teng’s thoughts moved, and a strand of spiritual power swept out, grabbing the ancient scroll.

“I wonder what this is?” He murmured to himself.

“Wang Teng, open it quickly and take a look,” Round Ball urged with curiosity.

“Let’s leave first. In case that universe-stage origin beast returns, we might be caught off guard.” Wang Teng put away the scroll and swiftly headed towards the exit.

This trip didn’t take much time. When Wang Teng rushed out of the cave, the universe-stage origin beast had not returned yet. He smiled slightly, concealed himself in the folds of space, and then took out the scroll, browsing through it.

“It seems to record the ancient ancestor of the five major families?!” Round Ball approached and glanced at it, surprised.

“Yes!” Wang Teng’s eyes revealed a strange light as he said, “The records on this scroll reveal that the ancient ancestor of the five major families was actually the same person.”

“The same person?!” Round Ball was surprised.

“Yes, and very powerful, reaching the eternal-stage ruler status. He was just a step away from god stage.” Wang Teng nodded.

“Wow!” Round Ball took in a cold breath, amazed. “The ancient ancestor of the five major families is so strong! Is he still alive?”

“What do you think?” Wang Teng looked at it and said, “If the eternal-stage ruler ancestor of the five major families is alive, the five families wouldn’t be in their current state. Even if the Heishan Royal Clan wanted to mess with them, they would have to think twice.”

“Well, you’re right!” Round Ball was stunned for a moment. Then, it said with embarrassment, “Any eternal-stage ruler shouldn’t be taken lightly, especially one close to the god level. His strength is truly unfathomable.”

“Unfortunately, even such an existence has fallen!”

Speaking to this point, it couldn’t help but shake its head with deep emotion.

“Even eternal-stage rulers can fall. This universe is too dangerous. I just don’t know how he fell. It’s not mentioned on this scroll.” Wang Teng also sighed, shaking his head.

“I didn’t find any records of such an existence when I checked the information. This means that he must be someone from many eras ago,” Round Ball said.

“Yes!” Wang Teng nodded.

“What else does it say on this scroll?” Round Ball asked curiously.

“It also mentions that the ancient ancestor of the five major families had a powerful talent corresponding to the human body’s five organs. Each of his organs corresponds to a unique elemental talent: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.”
