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

A sharp, piercing sound ripped through the void, like a thunderclap in a clear sky, making the ears of the five powerful figures—Bei Minghan, Xue Heshan, Bei Mingyue, and Xueyue—ring.

Immediately afterwards, a vast and boundless power swept out from Shi Ji's body. That aura was strong and domineering, shaking the heavens and crushing the sky.

Shi Ji's figure slowly rose into the air, standing proudly in the void, looking down at the five powerful figures below: Bei Minghan, Bei Mingyue, Xueheshan, and Xueyue.

The expressions on the five people's faces froze instantly. They felt an indescribable pressure—an absolute suppression of power. This majesty made them almost want to kneel down and worship.

"How...how could this be?" Bei Mingyue's face was full of disbelief.

"Could he have reached the half-step Nirvana realm? That's impossible." Blood River Mountain murmured, his face pale, staring at Shi Ji's figure.

"Half-step Nirvana Realm? This person's cultivation years are no more than twenty years. How could someone so young possibly reach the half-step Nirvana Realm?" Blood Moon shook her head in denial. "Absolutely impossible."

“That’s right, absolutely impossible.” Bei Minghan’s face showed a look of apprehension. “I have fought against even experts at the half-step Nirvana Realm more than once.”

"Ignorant! Shi Ji's martial arts skills are far more than just half-step Nirvana." Just then, a hearty voice rang out, and it was Blood Tiger who spoke.

Upon hearing Blood Tiger's voice, Blood River Mountain's expression changed drastically.

Blood Tiger's cultivation level is absolutely no less than any of theirs.

"Blood Tiger, what are you doing here?" Bei Minghan asked, frowning.

"Why can't I come?" Blood Tiger retorted in a chilling tone.

"Very well, let's settle this here today. I don't believe that a mere Shiji can withstand our combined attack." Xueheshan's voice was cold and resolute.

"A fight to the death? Bei Minghan and Xue Heshan, today I will teach you a lesson—in the face of absolute strength, any schemes and tricks are nothing but paper tigers." Xue Hu stood with his hands behind his back, staring coldly at the two.

Upon hearing this, Blood River Mountain roared to the sky and spat out a mouthful of blood. That mouthful of blood began to burn in the void.

Instantly, crimson flames erupted across the entire void, carrying destructive power as they swept wildly towards Shi Ji. Layers of the void collapsed as crimson flames surged forth in an overwhelming torrent.

A series of roars rang out as the demonic apes howled to the sky, charging into battle with their blood-red spears, heading straight for Shi Ji's figure.

They wielded their spears, sweeping across the void, and crashed into the rocky islet with terrifying power.

However, the moment these demonic apes charged forward, they all exploded in the void, their bodies turning into dust.

Immediately afterwards, the three supreme-grade primordial spirit level treasures—the crimson waves, the sea of ​​blood, the blood sword, and the blood monument—simultaneously unleashed terrifying fluctuations, carrying overwhelming divine power as they rushed towards Shiji.

Shi Ji's eyes flashed sharply, and with a roar, her fist, carrying overwhelming power, met the attack head-on. The fist, with its destructive force, slammed fiercely into these top-grade primordial spirit weapons.

A violent impact shattered the void, and a terrifying force swept across the entire universe.

Those top-grade primordial spirit weapons broke apart and scattered into the void.

Just then, Shi Ji's large hand reached out from the sky and grabbed at Xue Yue, Bei Ming Han, Xue He Shan, and Xue Hu.

Just as Shi Ji's hand was about to touch Xue Heshan, Xue Yue, Xue Hu, Xue Heshan, and Xue Hu, a violent clang of blades suddenly came from the void.

A blood-red serpent, hundreds of feet long, descended from the sky.

The crimson serpent was bathed in blood, its scarlet eyes flashing with cold killing intent, its purple scales exuding an extremely evil aura, and wisps of corpse poison spreading from its body.

The crimson serpent's tail lashed out violently, its attack extremely terrifying. The whip struck Shi Ji's palm viciously, but Shi Ji blocked it steadily.

Shi Ji grabbed with her backhand.

Instantly, a sharp cry of pain emanated from the blood-red serpent, as if it had suffered a severe blow. It rolled violently and lunged at Shi Ji's chest once more.

Shi Ji roared repeatedly, her figure shooting out like lightning. At the same time, four more iron chains surged out from the east, west, south, and north directions, each carrying unparalleled power.

Just then, a furious roar came from behind Shi Ji, accompanied by the roar of Xue He Shan. Xue He Shan's figure appeared out of thin air, a sinister smile on his lips, a huge black spear in his hand.

He thrust out his spear with lightning speed, tearing through the void, aiming fiercely at the back of Shi Ji's head.

"Give me your life!" Bei Minghan and Xue Hu, the two powerful figures, roared simultaneously, revealing their true forms.

A blood dragon, a blood tiger.

The two ferocious beasts simultaneously opened their blood-red maws, their two hideous fangs carrying the power to devour heaven and earth, and bit towards Shi Ji's neck.

Shi Ji snorted coldly: "Pathetic!"

With a flick of his sleeve, he pointed his finger at Xue Heshan and Bei Minghan. The two men froze instantly. Then, Shi Ji waved her hand, and a drop of blood appeared on her fingertip.

That drop of blood was incredibly crimson.

That was Shiji's blood.

He formed a hand seal, his fingers drawing an ancient and profound character in the air. The character carried a deep, bloody aura and contained boundless majesty.

Shi Ji uttered two words.

As he finished speaking, thousands of rays of blood-red light burst forth from his fingertips, flowing into the ancient sealing characters on his fingers. The sealing characters instantly radiated billions of rays of crimson light.

A terrifying aura rose from Shi Ji's fingertips, soaring straight into the sky. The entire void seemed to tremble in its presence.

This power was terrifying, soaring straight to the heavens and disrupting the universe. This was the power of the primordial spirit—Shi Ji's primordial spirit had broken through to the quasi-emperor realm.

At the same time, a thunderous roar erupted from the void. The roar made everyone's primordial spirits tremble, and the bodies of Xue Heshan, Xue Hu, Xue Heshan, Bei Minghan, and Xue Heshan fell straight down in the void.

Their primordial spirits completely collapsed and vanished into nothingness.

Their souls were all imprisoned by Shi Ji within the ancient, sealed characters formed at her fingertips.

Witnessing this terrifying scene, the five powerful figures, including Blood Tiger, Blood River Mountain, and Blood River Mountain, all changed color and tried to escape, but it was too late.

Because that character exudes destructive power.

Blood River Mountain hurriedly knelt in the void, begging for mercy repeatedly.

Bei Minghan and Xue Hu quickly knelt down, wailing, "Spare us, Brother Shi!"

Shi Ji glanced at the two Blood Robe Cult disciples, as well as Bei Minghan, Xue Hu, and the others, and coldly rebuked them, "You deserve to die! How dare you impersonate me? You're courting death!" Before he finished speaking, his index fingernail shot out like a steel needle, piercing deep into the throat of one of them. The man let out a shrill scream, his voice growing increasingly low.

Finally, the strong man's body stiffened, and he fell straight to the ground.

Shi Ji turned to the second Blood Robe Cult expert, his right hand piercing the man's throat like an eagle's claw, instantly taking his life.

"Roar! Shi Ji... I'll kill you! Do you think you can leave here alive?" Blood Tiger roared, suddenly spitting out a blood-red blade. The blade was densely engraved with blood patterns.

The crimson lines intertwined, forming a unique rune. There were hundreds of crimson runes, carrying an evil power and a corrosive force.

Upon seeing the blood-red blade appear, the Tang Family Fort disciples in the distance all paled.

"This Blood Pattern Technique... is the Blood Pattern Secret Technique of the Evil God Sect!"

Just then, Tang Shengzhi stepped forward. He stared at the blood-red blade, his eyes subtly shifting. He had heard his grandfather, Tang Shenglong, recount the Blood Pattern Technique.

It is said that the Blood Pattern Technique is extremely terrifying.

"Heh heh, not bad, not bad, kid, you do have some knowledge. That's right, the Blood Pattern Technique is the most treasured artifact of my Evil God Sect!" Just then, a tall figure emerged from the distant void. The owner of that figure was none other than the Evil God Emperor.

Many disciples of Tangjiabao paled. The Evil God Sect was the most mysterious sect in the seven continents and four oceans of China, with a lineage dating back to ancient times.

"So you are the Evil God Emperor?" Shi Ji looked at the figure of the Evil God Emperor and smiled faintly.

"I am naturally the Evil God Emperor. What, you know me? Hahaha..." The Evil God Emperor laughed wildly, "Since you know me, why don't you surrender?"

"Oh, the Evil God Emperor? I don't think I've heard of him. But you have Blood Fiend Smoke on you, that should be your mark, right?" Shi Ji stood with her hands behind her back, her tone indifferent.

"Not bad, as expected of Shi Ji, you are indeed shrewd." The Evil God Emperor put his hands behind his back and revealed a cruel smile.

Just as the Evil God Emperor finished speaking, an angry voice came from the distant void.

Immediately afterwards, three figures appeared in the void—Lin Fenglei, Tang Yingjun, Huang Jinlong, and others. They had just had their dantian shattered by the Evil God Emperor's punch, but they had not died and had almost fully recovered.

"Shi Ji, have you really sided with the Blood Robe Cult? You are a member of our Chinese race, have you forgotten your oath?" Tang Yingjun's figure came to Shi Ji, his tone filled with hatred.

“Indeed, Shi Ji. If you join the Blood Robe Sect, you will become an enemy of our human race.” Tang Yingjun stood with his hands behind his back and said in an icy tone.

"This is a conspiracy between Xueheshan and Xuehu to frame me!" Xueheshan hurriedly defended himself upon hearing this, trying to explain the truth of the matter with his words.

But Shi Ji would never believe Xuehe Mountain's explanation.

Just then, the figure of the Evil God Emperor walked over with a maniacal laugh: "Blood River Mountain, do you think I would believe you? Do you think I didn't detect your soul imprint?"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a blood-red rune appeared in mid-air.

The blood-red runes emanated strange fluctuations of energy, which were the primordial spirit imprints belonging to Blood River Mountain.

"Shi Ji, did you hear that? I have taken control of the primordial spirit imprint of Blood River Mountain. You can now cripple your martial arts." The Evil God Emperor looked at Shi Ji and said with a smile.

"To cripple your own martial arts? Evil God Emperor, you're truly delusional." Shi Ji sneered upon hearing this: "I have no idea what Blood River Mountain is."

"Who are you trying to fool?" the Evil God Emperor said sinisterly.

"If you don't leave now, it will be too late." Shi Ji stood with her hands behind her back, her eyes sharp and piercing as she looked down at the Evil God Emperor.

The Evil God Emperor laughed wildly, looking up at the sky: "Shi Ji, are you not afraid of death?"

"You think you can trap me with a peerless weapon?" Shi Ji looked at the Evil God Emperor calmly. "Don't dream. Although your top-grade spiritual treasure is powerful, it can deal with ordinary half-step kings without any problem, and can even trap half-step kings. But to kill a half-step king, unless you are a king-level expert, it is absolutely impossible."

"You know quite a lot." The Evil God Emperor's face was gloomy. "Then let's give it a try." As soon as he finished speaking, the Evil God Emperor held the blood-red blood blade and swept it across the void, slashing at Shi Ji's head.

The blood-red blade clanged, its crimson aura spreading outwards, aimed directly at Shi Ji's neck, its attack incredibly domineering.

A violent collision resounded from the void as crimson light clashed with black and white sword light, sparking intense sparks.

In that split second, Shi Ji's sleeves swung violently, and a black light screen appeared, containing a world-destroying divine power, directly intercepting the blood blade.

"This is... the Chaos Divine Bell?" Blood River Mountain looked at the Chaos Divine Bell that Shi Ji had summoned, his face showing a look of horror.

These words resounded through the void like a thunderclap, sending a chill down the spine of the Evil God Emperor, whose expression changed drastically. Although the Chaos Divine Bell was a replica, its power was still terrifying. He never expected that Shi Ji would possess the Chaos Divine Bell.

Not only him, but even the two masters, Blood Tiger and Lin Haishan, had their expressions change drastically. The situation, which they thought was a sure victory, was instantly reversed. The divine weapon that Shi Ji took out was no ordinary item.

Even the many powerful figures from Blood Cloud Mountain behind Blood River Mountain looked panicked, each standing in the void, wary of Shi Ji.

"What are you all standing there for? Quickly set up the formation!" Blood River Mountain roared at the many powerful figures of Blood Cloud Mountain.

The many powerful figures from Blood Cloud Mountain nodded in agreement.

In an instant, enormous stars appeared above Blood Cloud Mountain, radiating boundless and unfathomable stellar power that flowed into the blood-red light shield, which shimmered with mysterious and profound patterns.

This is a combined attack formation.

At this moment, the formation activated, unleashing a world-destroying aura in the void.

"I advise you to give up resisting and not make a futile struggle." The Evil God Emperor stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Shi Ji with a proud smile.

"Don't waste your time. I knew you'd come after me, so I prepared some things in the hopes of stopping you." Shi Ji stared coldly into the void: "But do you think I only have these tricks up my sleeve? I still have a trump card up my sleeve."

"Trump card? Shi Ji, do you really think you can turn the tables?" The Evil God Emperor still wore a disdainful expression.

The black and white divine swords in the void suddenly vanished, and the peerless divine weapon disappeared, flying away to an unknown destination, as if merging into the depths of the void.

The Evil God Emperor's face immediately turned solemn, because he sensed that the void in this area had become extremely chaotic, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

"Not good, retreat quickly!" Blood River Mountain sensed the strange aura in the void, his expression changed drastically, and he roared frantically. His figure turned and rushed away into the distance.

Other experts from Blood Cloud Mountain also turned and rushed into the void, but it was too late. The chaos in the void slowed them down several times over, not to mention they were completely unprepared.

A series of piercing screams rang out as the bodies of several Blood Cloud Mountain elders were torn to shreds by this terrifying, chaotic power, turning into a bloody mist that dissipated into the void, their blood splattering across the entire sky. (End of Chapter)
