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

Shi Ji did not rush back to the Golden Palace; he needed to seclude himself there for a period of time.

Shi Ji wanted to thoroughly study the array patterns inside the Golden Ancient City.

We should return to avoid further danger.

Shi Ji set up a protective barrier in the ancient city of gold.

He then sat cross-legged and began to comprehend the restrictions of the Golden Ancient City.

Shiji was discovered.

Even Shi Ji felt that she could not break the restrictions within the ancient city of gold.

"Just as rumored, the restrictions within the Golden Ancient City are exceptionally complex!"

Shi Ji frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed.

After all, the ancient city was established by those powerful figures in the past to protect its heritage from being taken away, so it's normal for the ancient city to have strong defenses.

Shi Ji pondered for a long time but still came up with no results, so he temporarily gave up on deducing the ancient city of gold.

Shi Ji then entered the Time-Space Gourd and began to heal her injuries by circulating the Primordial Dragon Elephant Technique.

Shi Ji discovered that his cultivation level was slowly increasing during the healing process.

Although the growth rate is relatively slow.

But the longer the time drags on, the greater the increase in his cultivation level will be.

This is undoubtedly a cause for celebration for Shiji.

That night, Shiji left the pass.

His injuries have recovered to about 70-80%.

"Hey, what is that?"

Suddenly Shi Ji was startled. He saw flames shooting into the sky from the depths of the distant mountains. The mountain peak was shrouded in the raging flames, looking particularly eerie.

"Could it be the legendary Heaven-Burning Immortal Furnace?" Shi Ji's eyes suddenly lit up.

He quickly flew towards the location of the Heavenly Burning Furnace.

Shiji was extremely fast, covering hundreds of miles in a short time.

The Heaven-Burning Immortal Furnace is indeed the legendary Heaven-Burning Immortal Furnace.

However, this Burning Heaven Immortal Furnace is not the real Burning Heaven Immortal Furnace.

The Heaven-Burning Immortal Furnace is a genuine immortal artifact.

It is said that this furnace was originally used to melt all things.

However, for some unknown reason, the owner of the Burning Heaven Immortal Furnace later transformed it into a magical artifact for refining all kinds of materials.

This magical artifact is extremely powerful; it can even melt treasures of the innate supreme level.

Shi Ji speculated that perhaps the owner of the Heaven-Burning Immortal Furnace wanted to use the furnace's powerful properties to refine rare and precious materials from the world, thereby obtaining astonishing benefits.

The Heaven-Burning Immortal Furnace contains a magic treasure of the Great Emperor level. The grade of this furnace is extremely high because Shi Ji sensed a trace of the Great Emperor level law fluctuation on the furnace.

Even if such a magical artifact is not an imperial weapon...

They're pretty much the same.

Shi Ji tried to get closer to the Burning Heaven Immortal Furnace, but as he approached, a powerful pressure suddenly emanated from around the furnace.

Shi Ji resisted the oppressive force released by the Immortal Furnace and flew towards it.

Shi Ji spread her arms and reached out to grab the Heavenly Burning Furnace.

A deafening roar erupted from Shiji's body.

That force instantly shattered the void.

Shi Ji grabbed the Heaven-Burning Immortal Furnace and then used a magic weapon to seal it.

The Heavenly Furnace struggled violently, trying to escape from Shi Ji's grasp, but Shi Ji gave the furnace no chance to resist and directly sealed it with her magic weapon.

After putting away the Heavenly Burning Furnace, Shi Ji quickly left.

But he soon stopped in his tracks, and Shi Ji felt that he was being watched.

Who is watching me from the shadows?

Shi Ji shouted in a deep voice.

The light flickered.

A battleship pierced through the void and landed a hundred meters away from Shi Ji.

There are six powerful individuals inside the Ironblood Ship.

Each of these powerful individuals possessed strength that was unbelievably formidable.

"Kid, you're pretty perceptive! You managed to sense our arrival beforehand!"

"I have never met any of you. Why are you blocking my way?"

"Hey kid, we're not strangers, you're our friend!"

Another old man chuckled sinisterly.

Shi Ji's face turned ugly.

These six powerful figures in front of him seemed to have come specifically for him.

How could they possibly be my friends?
If they were my own friends, how could I not recognize them?
"I advise you to surrender obediently, or you'll suffer a terrible death later!"

An old man in white robes said with a sinister grin.

The other five people all looked towards the rocky islet.

A terrifying killing intent enveloped Shiji.

"I have no grudge against you, why do you want to harm me?"

"No grudge against us? You dare say you have no grudge against us?" The white-robed elder looked at Shi Ji with a mocking expression.
His expression shifted between light and shadow, making it difficult to discern his thoughts.

Shi Ji asked coldly, "What exactly do you intend to do? If you are determined to die, then go ahead and make your move, and I will grant your wish!"

"You little thief, you dare to be stubborn even when you're about to die?"

A man in black glanced coldly at Shi Ji and said in an icy tone.

Shi Ji curled her lip and said, "You're not convinced? If you've got the guts, then come and fight!"

As soon as she finished speaking, an even stronger fighting spirit surged from Shi Ji's body.

Powerful magical energy swirled around Shi Ji's body.

"You ignorant fool!"

Upon seeing Shi Ji's posture, the black-clad cultivator sneered repeatedly, then leaped up and pounced on Shi Ji.

The man unleashed a powerful palm technique, striking Shi Ji with his palm.

This cultivator's combat power is indeed formidable; one strike from him could even destroy a star world.

Facing the cultivator's attack, Shi Ji showed no fear and swung her fist at the cultivator's right hand.

A loud bang suddenly rang out as Shi Ji and the black-clad monk's hands collided violently.

The black-robed monk's attack was directly thwarted by Shi Ji.

A series of cracking sounds rang out as Shi Ji's right hand snapped the cultivator's arm.

A heart-wrenching scream rang out.

The monk clutched his arm, his face pale, sweating profusely from the pain.

Shi Ji's methods were too cruel.

Shi Ji kicked the black-robed monk in the chest.

The kick struck the black-clad cultivator squarely in the chest, sending him flying thousands of meters away.

The black-clad cultivator coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground, barely breathing.

The other four powerful figures' expressions changed drastically.

Unexpectedly, Shi Ji was so formidable.

The formidable fighting power that Shi Ji had just displayed completely exceeded their expectations.

The four powerful figures quickly unleashed their respective magical treasures.

The four people used two short swords, a bead, and a halberd to summon magical weapons.

The cultivator who unleashed the magical artifact came from the "Golden Ancient Ape Clan".

This person is a peak fifth-level Taiyuan Realm expert.

The remaining three cultivators, two men and one woman, were all at the third level of the Taiyuan Realm.

When they unite, the threat they pose is truly terrifying.

"Kill him!"

The powerful member of the Golden Ancient Ape Clan roared.

He was the first to charge towards Shiji.

The other three cultivators also simultaneously activated their magical treasures to attack Shi Ji.

"Get out of my way, you ants! How dare you lay a hand on me! I swear I will not rest until I have killed you all!"

Shi Ji sneered repeatedly as he activated his Devouring Technique, directly summoning a Devouring Black Hole.

The black hole hovered in mid-air, seemingly swallowing everything in its path. Then, the magical artifacts attacking Shi Ji instantly went out of control.

Then one by one, they fell to the ground.

"What kind of evil skill is this?"

The powerful member of the Golden Ape Clan roared in utter horror.

"Hmph! How dare you, trash like you, manipulate my magical artifact? You're truly a frog in a well!"

Shi Ji looked at the Golden Ape Clan cultivator with disdain, and saw him lightly beckon with his right hand.

In an instant, all four magical treasures that had been floating in mid-air flew toward Shiji.

Shi Ji put away all four magical treasures and then asked, "I'll ask you one more time, who sent you to deal with me?"

"Boy, don't even think about getting any information about our master from us!"

The powerful member of the Golden Ape Clan said through gritted teeth.

Shi Ji squinted at the Golden Ape Clan expert and sneered, "You won't talk? Since you won't talk, then there's no need to talk anymore."

I just want to tell you that no matter how powerful your backers are, they are still as insignificant as ants before me!

As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Ji reached out and grabbed.

Instantly.

A powerful suction force swept across the heavens and earth.

The five strongest members of the Golden Ape Clan involuntarily flew towards Shi Ji, all of them trapped in mid-air and unable to move. Shi Ji reached out and grabbed their necks.

Then Shi Ji unleashed her magical power.

Several cracking sounds rang out.

The five strongest members of the Golden Ape Clan died on the spot.

"You bastards are truly despicable! You actually tried to use others to deal with me! I will not let you get away with this!"

A chilling killing intent flashed in Shi Ji's eyes.

Immediately, Shi Ji raised her hand and cast a series of spells, imprinting them on the foreheads of the five powerful members of the Golden Ancient Ape Clan.

He began searching for the soul.

Search for the secrets hidden deep within the memories of these five people.

Shi Ji was not worried that these five people could deceive him.

Because Shi Ji possesses a special soul-type immortal artifact that can lock onto the memories of cultivators whose souls have been searched.

Shi Ji then read the memories of these people.

After acquiring these memories, Shi Ji couldn't help but frown.

It turns out that behind these five people is the "Holy Heaven Palace".

The Holy Heaven Palace is a top-tier power in the Holy Emperor Domain, far stronger than other top-tier powers such as the Nine Provinces Holy Temple, the Southern Wilderness Demon Sect, and the Northern Underworld Mountain and Sea.

The Holy Heaven Palace is stationed in the Northern Wilderness.
The Northern Wilderness Holy Temple and the Southern Wilderness Demon Sect are stationed in the Holy State.

Unless absolutely necessary.

The Holy Heaven Palace does not allow interference in the Myriad Races Tournament.

But now the Holy Heaven Palace has actually taken action against Shi Ji.

Clearly, the Holy Heaven Palace wanted to use someone else to do their dirty work.

Shi Ji speculated that the Holy Heaven Palace must already know that he had obtained a Creation Fruit.

That's why they sent cultivators to assassinate him.

Moreover, this matter also involves Di Jun.

Di Jun seems to be tracking me, otherwise he wouldn't have made a move against me at this time.

Di Jun is a quasi-immortal, though only a beginner-level quasi-immortal.

But Di Jun's combat power is nothing short of heaven-defying.

With Di Jun making his move, Shi Ji realized she was in big trouble.

Shi Ji was not someone to be trifled with.

Anyone who wants to harm him.

They must all bear the wrath of Shiji.

Shiji will not give up easily.

"Boy! You wait! One day, my Holy Heaven Palace will surely kill you!"

A golden ape-like cultivator viciously cursed Shi Ji.

He died after being subjected to soul-searching by Shi Ji.

However, Shi Ji still imposed an extremely severe punishment on this Golden Ape Clan cultivator.

Shi Ji slapped the cultivator's head, then smashed his skull with another palm, killing him instantly.

The others were horrified by what they saw.

Isn't Shi Ji's method a bit too terrifying?
This guy is like a devil.

The other three ancient demon clan cultivators shouted in unison, and the three ancient demon clan cultivators quickly fled.

Did I give you permission to leave?

Shi Ji looked indifferently at the three ancient demon clan cultivators.

He used the technique of teleportation through the void.

They instantly blocked the path of the three ancient demon clan cultivators.

"What exactly do you want?" one of the cultivators asked in a deep voice.

"What do you think I want?" Shi Ji's lips curled into a cold smile as she walked step by step toward the three ancient demon clan cultivators.

The three ancient demon clan cultivators sensed a strong aura of danger.

Their expressions grew increasingly solemn.

One of the ancient demon clan experts said, "We are not ordinary ancient demon clan cultivators. We come from the Golden Ancient Ape Clan, which is one of the top ancient forces in the Northern Wilderness."

Our clan leader is a powerful expert at the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal. If you dare to kill us, the Golden Ancient Ape Clan will never let you get away with it!

"A Grand Luo Golden Immortal? Heh, there are many powerful beings in this world who are even more terrifying than Grand Luo Golden Immortals, but I am not among those powerful beings. So even if the Grand Luo Golden Immortals behind you come looking for trouble, so what? I will annihilate them without hesitation!"

"I'm so impatient," Shi Ji said, and then slapped the Golden Ape Clan cultivator who had spoken.

The head of the golden ape cultivator exploded.

The ancient demon cultivator's body was severed from its head.

"Heavens! Senior Brother Gongsun has fallen! Senior Brother Gongsun was one of the strongest experts among us. Who would have thought he would be killed by Yun Heng with a single palm strike!"

The remaining two Golden Ape Clan cultivators were filled with fear, their faces trembling violently.

In fact, Shi Ji had already realized that the two were core disciples of the Golden Ancient Ape Clan, but she did not expose them and continued to walk towards them.

"Spare us, Yunheng! Spare us! Please spare our worthless lives!"

The remaining two Golden Ape Clan cultivators wailed in pain.

"Too late!"

Shi Ji snorted coldly, then opened her blood-red maw and devoured the essence of the two of them.

The essence of the two powerful Golden Apes merged into pure energy and flowed into Shi Ji's body. Shi Ji felt her magic power and cultivation level surge, and she seemed to be only one step away from breaking through to the Quasi-Immortal realm.

Shiji continued searching for the next batch of targets.

He killed more than 500 people in total, and each of them had a considerable amount of wealth in their storage rings.

Shi Ji took stock of the valuables in those storage rings, and the total amounted to a staggering 500 billion Supreme Immortal Stones.

"These storage rings contain a considerable amount of wealth, but the 500 billion Supreme Immortal Stones are still somewhat insufficient to purchase treasures to enhance cultivation."

After all, my savings are indeed meager compared to this wealth, but I'm not in a hurry to improve my cultivation. I'll refine many pills first to stabilize my realm before considering anything else.

Shi Ji pondered for a moment, then sat down cross-legged.

He used various materials to begin refining elixirs to enhance his cultivation.

Shi Ji refined four batches of pills in a row, taking about three hundred years to complete the process.

Then Shi Ji took the elixir and went into seclusion to cultivate.

This time, Shi Ji broke through to the fifth level of the Celestial Immortal realm in one fell swoop. His accumulation was already strong enough, and breaking through to the sixth level of the Celestial Immortal realm would not be difficult. However, Shi Ji was not in a hurry to break through.

Shi Ji planned to advance to the Immortal realm while attempting to break through to the Quasi-Immortal realm.

If the attempt fails, it will waste a lot of resources.

If she succeeds in her assault, Shiji is even confident that she can roam freely throughout the entire Immortal's Cave and even enter the Immortal's Tomb.

The Immortal's Tomb is said to be the burial place of an ancient immortal.

Those buried there are all extraordinary beings; if one could enter, one might obtain many treasures.

At present, Shi Ji is far from collecting treasures from the tomb; he only hopes to see the true appearance of the Immortal's Tomb.

Years ago, Shi Ji visited the Immortal's Tomb once. At that time, there were many rumors about the tomb, and many people suspected that it contained the remains of an immortal. (End of Chapter)
