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

At this moment, a clear and melodious sound came from inside the cabin. Nanming Qiushui's graceful figure walked out, her blue dress trailing on the ground, her black hair cascading over her shoulders, and her beautiful eyes shining like stars.

"Qiu Shui!" Shi Ji smiled and nodded as she looked at Nanming Qiu Shui.

"President Lin, I have a question for you." Nanming Qiushui approached Shiji and asked, "Do you know this Nan Batian?"

"I don't know him." Shi Ji smiled and shook her head. "Well? Do you recognize him?"

“Indeed, I have seen this man before. He is a hero of his generation, with an extremely heaven-defying talent for cultivation.” Nanming Qiushui explained, “In recent years, his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and his status in the Nanhua Empire’s army has risen steadily.”

Upon hearing this, Shi Ji cursed under her breath: "This fellow has actually climbed to such a high position? I thought he was already dead, but I didn't expect him to still be alive?"

"Master, do you know him?" Hu Xiaoqian asked in confusion.

"I recognize him." Shi Ji paused for a moment after hearing this and said, "We fought before, and I was defeated by him."

"What? That's impossible! Brother Lin's cultivation is now completely different from what it used to be." Hu Xiaoqian and Nanming Qiushui were both shocked upon hearing this.

"This matter must not be revealed to outsiders." Shi Ji said with her hands behind her back, laughing arrogantly, "Otherwise, Nan Batian will surely die!"

His voice was full of domineering confidence and arrogance.

"Don't worry, Brother Lin," Hu Xiaoqian and Nanming Qiushui both assured him.

"Alright, let's set off for the Nan family, where Nan Batian resides, and exterminate their entire clan." Shi Ji's gaze was sharp as a knife as she stepped into the ship, followed by the three powerful figures, Nan Ming Qiushui, Hu Xiaoqian, and Tang Yingjun.

A sword cry resounded through the sky, and an unparalleled divine sword soared into the heavens—this sword was none other than the Immortal Execution Sword.

The sword was sharp and exuded a chilling aura.

A streak of crimson light pierced the sky, and the Immortal Execution Sword transformed into a scarlet rainbow, vanishing into the void.

Dongzhou, Nanling.

At this moment, Shi Ji's figure emerged from this desolate mountain. He stood on the vast land, gazing up at the void, his gaze seemingly spanning a distance of ten thousand feet.

"Kid, you've finally shown yourself." A mocking voice came from the distant void.

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Shi Ji burst into laughter. He raised his right foot and stepped into the void, his figure entering a void that shattered.

The void shattered, and a burly figure emerged—it was Nan Batian.

"Uncle Nan, it's been a long time," Shi Ji greeted him with a fist and palm salute.

"Young friend Lin," Nan Batian laughed heartily, "Good, good, it's great to see you again. I never expected that your return would directly overturn the entire Yellow Springs."

Shi Ji smiled and said, "Uncle Nan, please don't call me 'little friend,' that's too polite. Just call me by my name."

"Wouldn't that be impolite?" Nan Batian said with a wry smile, "It's better to follow etiquette and not refuse anymore, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to Jiu Yuan."

Upon hearing this, Shi Ji sighed softly: "Then let us address each other by our given names."

"That's a good kid," Nan Batian nodded in satisfaction.

"Uncle Nan, have all the preparations that Senior Jiuyuan asked you to make been completed?" Shi Ji suddenly asked.

"Everything is ready," Nan Batian said with a smile. "And what about yours?"

“We are also ready.” Shi Ji nodded slightly upon hearing this.

"This time, we will join forces to attack Huang Quan!" Nan Batian said with a deep gaze, "This battle concerns the future fate of our two major forces."

“Exactly. If we win, it will solidify the position of our two major powers.” A cruel smile appeared on Shi Ji’s lips: “We might even be able to unify the entire East China Sea.”

“Our forces are still insufficient.” Nan Batian frowned and said, “The Yellow Springs forces are indeed terrifying. In terms of strength alone, even with the addition of the power of Boni Continent, it would be difficult to contend with them.”

“This is indeed a difficult problem, but Uncle Nan, the forces of Bonania are not refusing to participate,” Shi Ji explained with a smile.

"Oh? Even Brunei wants to get involved?" Nan Batian asked in surprise.

"Indeed, all the experts from the Bonan Islands have been mobilized," Shi Ji said calmly.

"Boni Continent can actually produce such a level of power?" Nan Batian was even more astonished upon hearing this. Although his two major forces did indeed hide some of their power, Boni Continent was not qualified to get involved in the conflict between the two major forces.

“Indeed, they have sufficient strength.” Shi Ji laughed. “Alright, Uncle Nan, send a message for them to come to Dongling Mountain.”

“Alright!” Nan Batian nodded and said, “Wait a moment, I will immediately summon many experts to come and help.”

"Alright!" Shi Ji nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Nan Batian turned and left, but a moment later he returned, followed by a group of experts. All of them had extraordinary auras and were half-step Nirvana level experts.

Besides Nan Batian, there is also the Underworld King, the deputy hall master of the Underworld King Palace in Nanming Continent.

There are also many powerful figures from the Western Continent, the Northern Desert, and the Eastern Continent, including the master of the Dragon Family Ancestor and the younger brother of the Dragon Family Ancestor, who were also invited by Nan Batian.

"Greetings, Emperor Lin! Greetings, Empress Lin!" Nan Batian led the Underworld King, the Styx Ancestor, and many other powerful figures over, and they all bowed to Shi Ji.

"Please take a seat." Upon hearing this, Shi Ji laughed heartily, "Uncle Nan, I have invited you here to discuss the matter of attacking Huang Quan."

"I've also heard about this matter. We old bones are already bored out of our minds," Nan Batian said loudly.

"Good!" Upon hearing this, Shi Ji laughed heartily, looking up at the sky.

“Young friend Lin, now that you have made your decision, let’s get started.” Hades said readily, “I will begin making arrangements in the next few days to first find out the details of the Yellow Springs.”

"Uncle Nan, I'll leave this matter to you. I also need to go into seclusion and cultivate." Shi Ji smiled, her hands behind her back. "I feel that my cultivation level is one step closer to the Great Sage realm."

Upon hearing this, Nan Batian nodded slightly. Then, Shi Ji and Nan Batian, two powerful figures, began to talk. After about two incense sticks' worth of time, the two stopped talking.

"Alright, Brother Lin, this is a batch of pills recently refined by our two major forces. You will supply them all. You can exchange these pills for what you need."

Nan Batian smiled and handed Shi Ji a storage ring, saying, "It contains a hundred billion yuan stone."

"Alright!" Shi Ji nodded slightly upon hearing this.

He took the storage ring directly and put it into his sleeve.

"We should take our leave now," Nan Batian said as he bid farewell to Shi Ji.

"Take your time." Shi Ji waved her hand with a smile: "I hope this plan will succeed."

"Don't worry, we will definitely succeed." Nan Batian said firmly, "You go ahead and do your work." After saying that, Nan Batian turned around and led the group of powerful figures away.

Shi Ji gazed at Nan Batian's retreating figure, a chilling glint in her eyes. She then turned and walked toward the North Yin Yang Mansion, arriving at its gates shortly afterward.

The mansion's gates remained heavily guarded, and all the guards bowed to Shi Ji upon seeing her.

Why are you here?

Bei Yinyang stepped out of the gate. He was dressed in black, with a wrinkled face and graying temples, looking like an old man in his twilight years, yet his body was bursting with powerful life energy.

"Uncle Bei, I would like to ask, how much of your cultivation has recovered?" Shi Ji asked with a smile, looking at Bei Yinyang. "My cultivation has almost recovered." Bei Yinyang pondered for a moment, "This injury was extremely serious, and it will be difficult to recover in a short time. I need to seek an opportunity."

"What kind of opportunity is this?" Shi Ji asked.

"I need the essence of bloodline and a number of rare soul origins." Bei Yinyang explained after a moment of silence, "This time we must ensure our chances of victory."

"I see. I know where such a treasure is." Shi Ji smiled and said, "I'll take you there, but you must keep me safe and this matter must not be revealed."

"You can rest assured about that." Bei Yinyang was slightly taken aback upon hearing this: "Although my cultivation has declined, my supernatural abilities are still intact. In that case, I will immediately refine a pill for you to help you temper your body!"

As they spoke, Bei Yinyang extended her slender hand, and a vibrant green lotus flower appeared in her palm. This lotus was crystal clear, as if it had been carved from jade.

"Bodhi Divine Lotus!"

Shi Ji recognized the origin of this lotus; it was the legendary Bodhi Divine Lotus, which contained abundant life essence and was a sacred medicine for healing.

Such sacred items are extremely rare. Only after the fall and death of Buddhas, ancient emperors, or demon kings can the Bodhi Lotus possibly be nurtured from their remains.

This lotus is more valuable than any ordinary divine artifact.

“Indeed, this Bodhi Divine Lotus was something I obtained by chance during my travels in the mortal world a hundred years ago. Consuming it is enough to heal my damaged primordial spirit and physical body,” said Bei Yinyang.

"That's wonderful, thank you, Uncle Bei." Shi Ji smiled upon hearing this.

"No need for formalities, why should we stand on ceremony?" Bei Yinyang smiled and patted Shi Ji on the shoulder, saying, "You should temper your physique first, and then we can talk about other things."

As they spoke, Bei Yinyang took out a Bodhi Divine Lotus and handed it to Shiji. Instantly, a series of Buddhist chants resounded within Shiji's body, as if thousands of Buddhas were reciting scriptures, and he felt his body become stronger.

At the same time, a hazy light appeared on his body, like a layer of golden flame, completely engulfing his body, and his whole body was filled with incomparably vigorous life essence.

Shi Ji exhaled a powerful stream of air from her throat, which surged through the void and completely shattered the Bodhi Divine Lotus.

In an instant, the extremely rich life essence transformed into a vast ocean, surging and rushing wildly into his limbs and bones, causing his skin to radiate a dazzling halo, and his aura to rise steadily, like an active volcano.

The surrounding air seemed to ignite, and his pores opened, absorbing the boundless life force.

Shi Ji activated the Nine Heavens Creation Technique, devouring all of these life essences.

As life essence continued to flow in, Shi Ji felt her physical body becoming stronger and stronger, and every drop of blood and every inch of skin in her internal organs, meridians, and even blood vessels underwent earth-shattering changes.

His physical body became infinitely strong.

Suddenly, a violent tremor emanated from his body.

Like a thunderbolt, Shi Ji's body froze in place, followed by a surge of heat that swept outwards, engulfing an area of ​​hundreds of meters in radius.

A boundless life force emanated from his body, and this energy condensed in one place, forming a hazy mist.

A crackling sound, like thunder, came from his body.

"I've finally reached the second level of Nirvana." Shi Ji muttered to herself, her body suddenly trembling.

A surging aura emanated from him, rising steadily until it reached the second level of the half-step Nirvana realm.

A crackling sound rang out from Shi Ji's body, and her flesh and blood shone with a dazzling luster, like glass and jade.

His blood was boiling, and he seemed to be bathed in a golden divine light.

Shi Ji's footsteps tread on the void, causing the void to shatter and crumble. Her aura grows stronger and stronger, constantly rising until it abruptly stops at a new peak.

He threw a powerful punch.

This punch was simple and unadorned, yet it carried a world-destroying power. The terrifying fist imprint slammed into the void, causing it to shatter and reveal a deep pit, with a dark cave extending into the distant void.

"How powerful!" Shi Ji stared at the dark cave, dumbfounded.

“Not bad, this is your current strength.” Just as Shi Ji was surprised, Bei Yin Yang’s figure appeared in front of Shi Ji and said.

"Uncle Bei, this is truly amazing," Shi Ji exclaimed excitedly.

"You have now reached this level, but you are still far from true Nirvana. Only by advancing to the Nirvana realm can you achieve a perfect transformation. Moreover, the Nirvana realm requires not only to comprehend the mysteries of Nirvana, but also to accumulate a sufficiently powerful primordial spirit."

Otherwise, an unstable foundation will hinder your future cultivation," Bei Yinyang explained.

“I understand.” Shi Ji listened attentively to Bei Yinyang’s explanation.

“Therefore, you need to break through this realm as soon as possible,” Bei Yinyang continued.

“I understand.” Shi Ji looked at Bei Yinyang and said, “Uncle Bei, when do you plan to go into seclusion? I would like to accompany you for a while.”

Upon hearing this, Bei Yinyang laughed loudly, "Boy, there's no need for that."

"Lord Bei, is there something else important?" Shi Ji asked Bei Yinyang with a puzzled look. Logically, Bei Yinyang should be in seclusion at this moment.

"I don't plan to go into seclusion for now, because I'm worried about things changing over there." Bei Yinyang stood with his hands behind his back, proudly standing in the void and laughed, "But I can teach you three moves."

Upon hearing this, Shi Ji was filled with excitement. If she could learn three moves from Bei Yin Yang, the gains would surely be enormous.

“Indeed, only in this way can I confirm whether I can overcome the tribulation.” Bei Yinyang looked up at the sky and said, “Perhaps I will fail, but I hope all of this is just an illusion.”

“Beibo, I also hope that all of this is an illusion.” Shiji laughed and said, “Please tell me, three moves, I am willing to learn.”

“These three moves are called Yin-Yang Finger,” Bei Yin-Yang explained. “I will only teach you three moves. If you fail, then consider it as if I never taught you.”

"Yin-Yang Finger?" Shi Ji asked doubtfully, "Yin-Yang Finger?"

"My finger technique is called the Supreme Forgetfulness Finger. It was created by me and is specifically designed to cultivate willpower and willpower. You must remember that any skill, including supernatural powers, has two levels," Bei Yinyang explained.

“Indeed, Lord Bei, you have always been sincere to me.” Shi Ji looked at Bei Yinyang earnestly and said, “I will always remember Lord Bei’s kindness.”

"No need for formalities," Bei Yinyang said with a smile. "I originally intended to teach you the Martial Domain, but knowing you were unwilling to follow that path, I'll simply teach you another martial art called the Supreme Nine Emperors Fist!"
"The Supreme Nine Emperors Fist? What kind of martial art is this?" Shi Ji asked in surprise.

"Throughout my life I have practiced martial arts and met several friends whose techniques were quite different. Among them, the Taihuang Scripture was the most powerful. Later I comprehended this scripture."

Bei Yinyang said calmly, "The Taihuang Scripture is profound and all-encompassing. You will definitely have the opportunity to comprehend it in the future."

"I see, I understand now." Shi Ji laughed, "This fist technique is a divine power recorded in the Taihuang Scripture."

“That’s right.” Bei Yinyang explained, “But your cultivation is still shallow, and you are not yet able to activate it. Although you have cultivated supernatural powers, your realm is still lacking.”

“I understand.” Shi Ji nodded gently upon hearing this, and he did not doubt what Bei Yinyang had said.

"Don't worry, I will do my best to help you reach this level. Your martial arts aptitude and comprehension are extremely strong, no weaker than mine back then," Bei Yinyang said, looking at Shi Ji.

"Uncle Bei, I will also work hard and live up to your expectations," Shi Ji said respectfully upon hearing this.

"Alright, go ahead and get busy. Now I will teach you the Nine Emperor Fist." Bei Yinyang put his hands behind his back, turned around and disappeared, his figure gradually blurring. (End of Chapter)
