Primordial Era: The Holy Maiden Shiji, a woman of exceptional talent and beauty

Those runes, combined with each other.

It resembled some kind of mysterious and profound restriction.

"What is that?" Shi Ji asked curiously as she examined the phoenix lotus.

He then heard a loud rumbling sound.

Immediately afterwards, Shi Ji saw a large amount of purple lightning emanating from the Phoenix Immortal Lotus.

Purple lightning.

Its power is extremely strong.

Shi Ji's face showed surprise. She had not expected that this Phoenix Immortal Lotus would release such a powerful attack, and that this place also contained the power of lightning.

When Shi Ji came here to search for the Phoenix True Bone, she did not see any lightning power, and this area seems to only grow Phoenix Immortal Grass.

Could it be that the Phoenix's true bones are hidden nearby?
Shi Ji swiftly flew deeper into the area and soon discovered the location of the Phoenix True Bone. He quickly flew towards it. As he approached the Phoenix True Bone, the lightning power emanating from the bone enveloped Shi Ji's entire body.

Shi Ji quickly put away the Phoenix True Bone and then retreated rapidly.

Although the lightning was powerful, it did not pose a significant threat to Shiji, who possessed the Phoenix Essence Fire and was protected by the black hole.

"Are you ok?"

Little Fur Ball looked at Shi Ji with concern.

Shi Ji had just suffered a severe injury, which made her extremely uneasy.

Shi Ji said, "I won't die for now!"

He took out several healing pills and swallowed them to repair his injuries.

However, Shi Ji knew that her recovery from her injuries was not going smoothly, as evidenced by her weak breathing. After all, her physical condition was truly terrible, and it would take many years for her to fully recover.

Not only does Shiji need a long time to heal its wounds.

The other two human prodigies were also seriously injured.

Shi Ji speculated.

Those two must be about to give up too, right?

Sure enough, Shi Ji didn't have to wait long.

The other two human prodigies succumbed to their injuries and collapsed in pools of blood.

Their situation was even worse than that of Shiji.

Shi Ji took away three storage rings, which contained a mountain of items, including countless resources of all kinds.

This is the treasure of creatures from other lands.

The treasures in this place had long been looted by the alien creatures, and what remained were all ordinary items, so Shi Ji didn't bother to plunder them.

Shi Ji put away her storage ring and prepared to leave with the little furball.

But at this moment, the water in the Phoenix Fairy Pool suddenly surged violently.

A destructive wave surged forth.

A massive number of strange fish surged out of the fairy pool.

The strange fish opened their gaping maws and spewed out bursts of black lightning.

Streaks of black lightning tore through the sky, as if they were about to destroy the world.

A dense black lightning bolt instantly engulfed Shiji and Xiao Maoqiu. When the lightning dissipated, Shiji and Xiao Maoqiu had vanished into thin air.

The strange fish in Phoenix Fairy Pool possesses destructive power.

The strange fish emitted a sharp, piercing cry.

It then sank back to the bottom of the water.

After a long while, Phoenix Fairy Pool returned to calm.

The bodies of Shiji and Xiaomaoqiu also vanished without a trace, leaving not even their bones behind.

The Phoenix Immortal Lotus is still stored in Shi Ji's storage ring.

But this fairy lotus has already been taken away by that ferocious beast.

Moreover, the ferocious beast didn't even make a move itself.

This is the terrifying aspect of Phoenix Immortal Pool; even if the ferocious beast disdains dealing with Shi Ji and the other two, it can still easily destroy them.

"Wow!"

A high-pitched cry rang out.

A colossal creature suddenly flew out of the Phoenix Immortal Pool.

It was a golden phoenix.

The golden phoenix's wingspan is about 100 meters, and its body proportions are perfect, making it look like a work of art.

That is the true form of the phoenix.

The golden phoenix was surrounded by terrifying lightning power.

That was the power of a lightning tribulation.

Golden Phoenix successfully transcended its tribulation and ascended to the Emperor Realm.

Within the Phoenix Immortal Pool, the Phoenix Emperor Realm was born.

The golden phoenix roared, its cry shaking the heavens and echoing through the nine skies.

The golden phoenix flew away from the Immortal Pool.

After Jin Feng left, Shi Ji walked over from a distance.

Shi Ji originally intended to find the Phoenix Immortal Lotus.

But now Jin Feng has left.

He had no choice but to leave Phoenix Fairy Pool first.

Regardless of whether the Phoenix Lotus can be found deep within the Immortal Pool.

You always have to give it a try.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be a wasted trip?
After leaving Phoenix Fairy Pool, Shi Ji quickly traversed the forest.

Half an hour later, he finally arrived at the exit.

The exit was shrouded in a protective array.

Shi Ji attempted to break the sealing formation, but failed despite numerous efforts.

In the end, he chose to give up.

I decided to try again the next morning.

The next day, early in the morning.

Shi Ji continued to try to break the sealing formation, but to no avail; she was unable to break it.

"It seems the only option is to sneak in at night."

Shi Ji frowned.

The Phoenix Fairy Pool is fraught with danger.

It might be a little safer at night.

However, Shi Ji was not confident that she could enter the Immortal Pool undetected and find the Phoenix Immortal Lotus.

Inside the Immortal Pool, not only is that terrifying monstrous bird guarding the Immortal Lotus, but the Phoenix Emperor Realm being also in control of the Phoenix Immortal Liquid.

If one rashly enters, one will surely be killed by that Phoenix Emperor realm being.

The matter of Phoenix Fairy Pool should be planned for tonight.

The little furball was sleeping in Shiji's arms when it suddenly woke up, raised its head, and looked ahead. Not far away stood a fierce bird.

That was a black eagle.
Black Hawk was a large, imposing creature with wings on its back and a chilling, murderous look in its eyes.

Clearly, the black hawk had its eye on the little furball. The little furball was terrified and huddled against Shi Ji's chest, trembling all over.

Shi Ji picked up the little furball and flew away quickly, but the black eagle flapped its giant wings and chased after her.

Black Hawk was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, it flew to Shi Ji's side, then extended its sharp talons to grab at her.

With a "whoosh," Shi Ji drew her stone sword and slashed out.

A clanging sound suddenly rang out.

Shi Ji, wielding a stone sword, clashed fiercely with the black eagle.

Black Hawk was thrown away.

But Shiji was also shaken and forced to retreat repeatedly.

Shi Ji's face turned solemn. This ferocious beast was indeed extremely terrifying, with a powerful physique and astonishing defense. Defeating Black Eagle seemed to be no easy task.

Shi Ji stuffed the small fur ball into the time-space ring and then rushed off into the distance.

However, Black Hawk reacted very quickly. It had already locked onto Shi Ji when she fled. Now that it saw Shi Ji running away, Black Hawk chased after her again, trying to intercept her.

Shi Ji then unleashed the five-fold Dragon Elephant Arm Divine Power, causing her combat strength to surge.

He swung the stone sword at Black Hawk.

With a loud crash, the black eagle's body actually withstood the blow from the stone sword.

Black Hawk's defense was too overpowered; Shi Ji felt her arm go numb.

Black Hawk flapped its wings and swooped down on Shiji.

Although the rocky shore was fast.

But the Black Hawk is faster.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the black eagle swooped down and slapped at the rock with one claw.

The stone rock, with its immense weight, could drop a thousand pounds with divine power.

Both feet are firmly planted on the ground.

He quickly dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding Black Hawk's attack.

But Shi Ji had just regained her footing.

The Black Hawk's offensive then came crashing down like a storm.

Shi Ji used the Dragon Elephant Crushing Fist to block the Black Hawk's attack.

After exchanging several blows, Shi Ji was surprised to find that Black Eagle's cultivation was stronger than before.

The Black Hawk's combat capabilities have increased by an enormous margin.

This surprised Shi Ji quite a bit.

"What kind of rare and precious treasures have you devoured? Why do I feel you are becoming more and more terrifying?" He couldn't understand what Black Hawk was saying.

"Could it be because he consumed the essence of the phoenix?"

Shi Ji murmured to herself, "The phoenix is ​​an ancient being that ranks high on the list of divine beasts."

The phoenix is ​​the king of all spirits.

The so-called leader of all creatures.

It refers to the ancestor of all races.

The phoenix bloodline nurtured by the Phoenix Immortal Pool is extremely precious.

Anyone who encounters such a bloodline would be astonished.

They'll probably plunder like crazy, won't they?

The black eagle leaped into the air and then swooped down, its sharp talons reaching for the rock.

Shi Ji quickly dodged.

His shirt was torn at the shoulder.

Fresh blood flowed out.

The wound was excruciatingly painful, and Shi Ji's face suddenly darkened.

The black eagle let out a sharp, piercing cry and swooped down on Shiji again, as if determined to take her life.

Shi Ji hurriedly rushed out of the cave.

As Shi Ji rushed out of the valley, she discovered that many demonic wolf beasts had gathered outside.

These demonic wolf beasts were all extremely powerful, and when Shi Ji appeared, they all pounced on her.

Shi Ji unleashed her stone sword, unleashing seven or eight illusory stone sword shadows in succession.

A dense barrage of sword shadows rained down on a group of demonic wolf beasts.

A tearing sound followed.

The necks of all those demonic wolves were severed by Shi Ji, and they fell to the ground dead.

"That damned bastard dared to slaughter our fellow human beings! He deserves to die a thousand deaths!"

A silver one-horned rhinoceros roared.

Then several more demonic beasts roared, their eyes filled with bloodlust, and pounced on Shiji.

Shi Ji sneered, stepped forward, held the stone sword in her right hand, and lightly patted the monsters with her left.

When Shi Ji's palm touched the monster's body.

His hands seemed to transform into the strongest shield in the world.

Shi Ji's palm pierced directly through the bodies of the demonic beasts, and the beasts' bodies exploded with a bang.

"How is that possible? How can you be so amazing?"

Another group of monsters stared at Shi Ji in disbelief.

Shi Ji said, "Because I am far superior to you."

Shi Ji leaped into the air, instantly covering a distance of 100 meters.

He swept his sword from high above towards a demonic wolf beast.

A tearing sound followed.

Shi Ji's sword swept across the neck of the demon wolf beast.

The demon wolf's head detached from its body and fell to the ground.

Shi Ji continued her attack, killing the remaining few demonic wolf beasts.

And this moment.

Black Hawk was already behind Shi Ji, its sharp talons reaching for Shi Ji's head.

Shi Ji swung her sword backhand at Black Hawk's Claws.

The two sides immediately collided.

Black Hawk and Stone Rock each stepped back.

The black eagle's talons were as black as ink, and thick black mist swirled around them.

That black mist was extremely evil, containing a strange and demonic nature.

"Huh, you actually have magic runes on your body too!"

Shi Ji frowned slightly; the black eagle was surrounded by demonic energy.

Demonic energy is quite different from ordinary magic or divine power; this kind of magic is filled with strange and unpredictable fluctuations.

Those who possess magical markings are generally powerful figures of unparalleled dominance.

Black Hawk's magic runes are not particularly powerful.

Black Hawk let out a deep, angry roar.

It roared angrily, and then a black beam of light shot out from the black eagle's eyeballs. This black beam of light contained extremely terrifying destructive power and blasted towards Shi Ji.

Shi Ji shouted and swept out with her sword, shattering the black light.

He quickly approached Black Hawk and then pierced Black Hawk's throat with his sword.

Black Hawk let out a scream and plunged into the abyss.

Shi Ji ignored Black Hawk's corpse and quickly left.

He was worried about being surrounded by Black Hawk's accomplices, which would be bad for Shi Ji.

Shiji found a forest to rest.

Shi Ji awaited the arrival of Emperor Baiyu, believing that Emperor Baiyu would come to meet him after learning of this matter.

With the two of them working together, even Black Hawk, no matter how cunning, was helpless.

As night fell, Shi Ji was meditating when he suddenly felt a sense of crisis and opened his eyes.

In the distance, a dark cloud descended, obscuring the bright moon.

"What terrifying demonic energy!"

Shi Ji's eyelids twitched violently.

The aura emanating from that dark, malevolent cloud was indeed terrifying.

"Your death is near, junior!"

A cold voice suddenly resounded in Shi Ji's mind, and then a huge claw emerged from the black cloud, grabbing at Shi Ji.

That giant claw possessed overwhelming power, shaking the heavens and earth, as if it could destroy all the worlds.

"What an amazing guy!"

Shi Ji was astonished; the claws that emerged from the dark clouds were incredibly powerful.

Shi Ji drew her stone sword and used her Heaven-Mending Technique to swiftly dodge the black eagle's claws.

At that moment, a gigantic demonic bird appeared behind Black Hawk.

The enormous demonic bird exuded an overwhelming demonic aura.

The demonic bird roared to the sky.

Then the demonic bird flew over quickly, intending to kill Shi Ji.

"This is bad! There's a demonic bird hidden inside the Black Hawk!"

This is a really tricky matter.

This demonic bird was so terrifying that even Shi Ji felt a strong threat of death.

"Boy! You can't escape today, so just surrender obediently!"

Black Hawk grinned maliciously.

Its claws reached out to grab Shiji with incredible speed, giving Shiji no chance to catch her breath.

Just as the claw was about to strike the rock, a thick iron chain suddenly flew out.

With a loud bang, the thick iron chain lashed out at the black eagle's talons.

Black Hawk's talons were cracked from being slapped.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Shi Ji used the Great Teleportation Spell to quickly increase the distance between herself and Black Hawk.

"You damned ant, how dare you hurt me! I'll kill you!"

Black Hawk roared, enraged to the extreme, and quickly chased after Shiji.

The enormous demonic bird was even more ferocious and violent.

This demonic bird seemed to have developed sentience; after locking onto Shiji, it flew rapidly toward her.

The demonic bird's attack power was also extremely powerful. Shi Ji unleashed the Great Dragon Elephant Fist, and the "Great Dragon Elephant Fist" from the three moves and five styles clashed with the demonic bird.

The fierce battle lasted for a full quarter of an hour before it ended.

In the end, Shi Ji defeated the demonic bird with her powerful physical body.

However, this demonic bird was also extremely terrifying. Although it was severely injured and on the verge of death by Shi Ji, it did not completely perish.

Shi Ji took out the prepared pills and fed them to the demonic bird.

After consuming the pills provided by Shi Ji, the demonic bird's injuries gradually healed.

Although the demon bird had recovered from its injuries, it was clearly in poor mental condition.

"Brother, thank you for saving my life. If it weren't for your help, I would have been in grave danger! I am a rogue cultivator, surnamed Wang, and my given name is Hao. You can call me Hao Hao!"

Wang Hao clasped his hands in gratitude to Shi Ji.

"So it's Young Master Wang. What's the name of the martial art you just used? I've heard that great sects or royal families of ancient kingdoms must have their own unique martial arts techniques, right?"

"What I cultivate is an unparalleled technique called the Epochal Path, one of the Three Thousand Great Paths. In addition, I have also cultivated three other Great Paths, including the Great Curse Technique and the Great Reincarnation Technique!"

"What? You actually cultivated these supernatural abilities?" Wang Hao's face showed extreme shock.

Shi Ji nodded and said, "I was fortunate enough to obtain these in a ruin many years ago, and my cultivation has been quite smooth ever since!"

Wang Hao said, "Brother Lin is truly enviable. Unlike me, I have no special skills and my cultivation is mediocre!"

Shi Ji said, "Brother Hao, you are too modest!"

"Brother Lin, I hope we meet again someday! I still need to continue my treasure hunt deep into the Northern Underworld Mountains!"

Wang Hao clasped his hands in a fist salute, then turned and walked away into the distance.

Watching Wang Hao's departing figure, Shi Ji muttered to herself, "Has this guy gone mad? Knowing how powerful I am, he still dared to attack me. He's practically asking for trouble!" (End of Chapter)
