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

He carefully felt the changes in his body, and became more and more certain in his heart, "Yes, it is true. It seems that the spiritual energy in this world is very abundant. If I absorb and refine it in this way, it should make my soul power stronger."

Shiji's face was getting more and more excited. "Besides, I have been in seclusion for a while and didn't bother to refine this pill. Now, it finally comes in handy."

He raised a brilliant arc, his heart full of anticipation, "However, I'm afraid this opportunity won't last long. If it goes on like this, I don't know when I can break through."

Shiji frowned slightly, and a look of helplessness flashed across his eyes. Then, he immersed himself in cultivation again, constantly absorbing the medicinal power around him, nourishing his soul and making it stronger.

This trial was extremely important to him. Shiji knew that he had to go all out and tap his potential to the limit. Otherwise, when he was about to reach the Saint Realm, he might suffer a serious injury or even perish and disappear on the path of cultivation.

Although Shiji was madly absorbing the power of the medicine, he did not ignore the terrifying aura that was rapidly approaching. His perception was as sharp as an eagle, and any movement could not escape his detection.

"Finally you're here." Shiji's eyes suddenly opened, flashing with cold murderous intent. He whispered to himself, "As expected of an ancient saint, you can't even hide from my concealment technique. But you came just in time, and you can give me a great gift."

Before he finished speaking, Shiji's body trembled slightly, and visible air waves surged out of his body. His clothes moved without wind, as if swept by a strong wind.

At this moment, two figures suddenly appeared in the void in the distance. One of them was burly, with a stubble on his face, exuding a murderous aura, and his eyes were as sharp as knives, which made people shudder. The other one was dressed in a white robe and had an outstanding temperament. He was the mortal enemy of the Xian Sect - Bei Ming Haoran, the leader of the Bei Ming Sheng Sect.

Shi Ji's expression changed slightly as he glanced at him. He sensed that Bei Ming Haoran's strength had already reached the level of a great emperor, even stronger than an ordinary great emperor.

"It seems that my opponent this time is a high-level emperor." Shiji muttered to himself, but there was no fear on his face.

"Boy, you are quite capable. You can break through to the Saint Emperor realm in a short period of time." Bei Ming Haoran said coldly, "But, so what? I am the leader of the Bei Ming Saint Sect, and I have the combat power of the Great Emperor. Today, I will let you see the unique skills of my Bei Ming Saint Sect."

Before he finished speaking, Bei Ming Haoran's figure turned into a black light and instantly appeared in front of Shi Ji. At the same time, a huge breath burst out from his body, like a surging river, surging and crushing towards Shi Ji.

Feeling this terrible sense of oppression, Shiji's heart tightened and his eyes became more cautious. He knew very well that the enemy in front of him was no ordinary person.

“Boy, you don’t need to resist.” Bei Ming Haoran shouted in a deep voice, “Hand over the pill obediently, and I promise you won’t die. Otherwise, you will bear the endless wrath of me, Bei Ming Haoran, and Bei Ming Holy Sect, and you will live a life worse than death, and never be reborn.”

Shi Ji curled her lips in disdain and said coldly: "Humph, what if I don't hand it over?"

Bei Ming Haoran showed a ferocious smile on his face, and he slowly said: "Don't hand it over? I, Bei Ming Haoran, am a great emperor-level strongman of the Bei Ming Holy Sect. Who on this continent dares to disobey me? I can crush you to death with just one finger. I want to make your life worse than death. Even if you escape to the ends of the earth, I can make you disappear into ashes."

After hearing what Bei Ming Haoran said, Shi Ji's eyelids twitched a few times involuntarily. Then, his eyes became as cold as ice, and he said word by word: "I told you, this is my elixir, no one can take it away. I don't want to kill anyone, so, go away. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

"What an arrogant tone!" Bei Ming Haoran's pupils suddenly shrank, and a trace of anger appeared on his face, "Humph, just you?"

Before he finished speaking, Bei Ming Haoran suddenly flashed and appeared in front of Shi Ji in an instant. He raised his right fist suddenly and smashed towards Shi Ji.

Shiji snorted coldly, without dodging or avoiding, and also punched forward. The two fists collided with each other, and a loud noise suddenly erupted. Both of them took several steps back before they could stand steadily.

"Huh?" Seeing that he didn't have the upper hand, Bei Ming Haoran's eyes showed a hint of surprise. Then, his face darkened, "Boy, it seems that your strength is indeed good. But your realm is Saint Emperor after all, which is a whole major level lower than mine. Who do you think will win between the two of us?"

A playful smile appeared on Shiji's lips. He stomped his foot hard on the ground, and with a flash of his body, he appeared in mid-air, confronting Beiming Haoran.

"Since we're tied, let's have another match." Shiji said calmly, "Let's see who is the real strong one."

"Haha, good!" Bei Ming Haoran laughed loudly, "Just as you said, let's compete again. This time, I will make you kneel on the ground and kowtow to beg for mercy."

"No hurry." Shiji's eyes flashed with cold murderous intent, "Wait until I break through to the realm of the Great Emperor, then I will make you regret coming into this world."

The next moment, a terrifying wave erupted from Shiji's body. Immediately, a fierce killing intent emanated from his body, heading straight for Beiming Haoran.

"Great Emperor?" Feeling the aura emanating from Shiji's body, Bei Ming Haoran's face suddenly froze. Then, his face turned ugly, "So, you are actually a Great Emperor. It seems that I really underestimated you. However, I, Bei Ming Haoran, am definitely not a soft persimmon that can be bullied by others. Just wait!"

"That's not necessarily true." Shi Ji's face was unusually calm. With a thought, he rushed out again and appeared in front of Bei Ming Haoran. "Bei Ming Haoran, do you dare to compete with me?"

"Okay!" Bei Ming Haoran snorted coldly, "Let me see what qualifications you have to challenge me."

As the words fell, a buzzing sound was transmitted. A terrible aura also burst out from Bei Ming Haoran's body, echoing with Shi Ji's aura from a distance, as if forming a resonance. This made the surrounding space become distorted.

Shiji's eyes narrowed suddenly, and he muttered to himself: "This guy is really powerful. However, this is exactly what I want. In this way, I can use Bei Ming Haoran to comprehend the realm of the Great Emperor."

"Beiming Haoran, haven't you always wanted me to kneel down and kowtow?" Shiji sneered, "Now, I will let you see what a true emperor is."

After saying that, Shiji flashed and instantly appeared in front of Beiming Haoran. He flipped his palm, and a powerful force condensed and attacked Beiming Haoran fiercely.

Bei Ming Haoran's cheek was stained with blood, looking extremely hideous. Scarlet blood lines were winding down his body, looking shocking. He roared, and with a flash of his figure, he also pounced towards Shiji.

However, the next moment, Bei Ming Haoran flew backwards like a cannonball, smashing the stone pillar behind him. He spurted out a mouthful of bright red blood, his face turned as pale as paper, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

"You actually hid your cultivation!" Bei Ming Haoran stared at Shi Ji with eyes wide open, looking at him in disbelief. Shi Ji's face showed a hint of sarcasm, and he said lightly: "I told you that I don't want to kill anyone. It's just that you don't know how to live or die. I only need to use a look to kill you. Do you think I would lie to you?"

"You... are you really a great emperor?" Bei Ming Haoran's face was filled with shock. He never expected that he would fall into the hands of a seemingly young boy.

"Stop talking nonsense." Shiji said indifferently, "Hurry up and take out all your things. Otherwise, I will not be polite."

Hearing Shi Ji's words, Bei Ming Haoran took a deep breath. A bitter look appeared on his face, knowing that he had no way out. Immediately, he flashed and disappeared from the spot.

The next moment, Bei Ming Haoran appeared on a cliff. He glanced at the cliff below him, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. Although his cultivation had already broken through to the Great Emperor realm, he was not sure if he could jump off the cliff. You know, under the cliff is the place where the sun falls! Once he falls, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Brother Bei Ming, what's wrong?" Shi Ji's teasing voice sounded in his ears, "Why don't you continue to provoke me? Are you scared?"

Hearing this, Bei Ming Haoran's face changed. He gritted his teeth, turned his head and looked at Shi Ji, and said in a deep voice: "Boy, I lost today. I will not resist no matter what you say. But you must let me go."

"Haha, you think it's too simple, don't you?" Shiji had a sarcastic smile on his face, "Do you think I will let you go so easily?"

"Then what do you want?" Bei Ming Haoran frowned. He knew that he was at a disadvantage at the moment and had to be careful.

"I want you to hand over everything in your storage ring to me." Shi Ji said coldly, "And, if you dare to mess with me again, I will make you regret coming into this world."

"Why should I agree to you?" Bei Ming Haoran's face showed an angry expression. He felt that he had been humble enough, but Shi Ji was still so aggressive.

"You have no choice." Shiji said calmly, "If you don't want your whole family to be killed by my sword, you'd better do as I say. Otherwise, I will kill everyone in your family first."

"How dare you threaten me?" Bei Ming Haoran's face turned gloomy in an instant, as if covered with a layer of frost, and his eyes pierced at Shiji like a sword.

Shiji just shrugged lightly, with a faint smile on his face, and said nonchalantly: "You can take this as a threat. However, if you don't believe it, you can try it yourself."

Bei Ming Haoran was furious when he heard this, but there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes. He knew that he was carrying the honor and expectations of his family and could not act rashly. However, facing Shi Ji's provocation, he could not help but said with gritted teeth: "Okay! I can give you everything, but I hope you keep your word!"

He thought to himself that no matter what, he had to find out whether this Shiji was the legendary great emperor.

At this moment, Bei Ming Haoran suddenly seemed to sense something, and suddenly looked up into the void, shouting loudly: "Old Liu, why don't you take action!"

His voice echoed in the void, carrying a hint of anxiety and anticipation.

There was a wave in the void, and a burly old man walked out slowly. Every step he took seemed to be on solid ground, giving people a feeling as steady as a mountain.

"A mortal immortal who is superior to the great emperor?" Shiji frowned slightly. He stared at the old man, but found that he could not see through the other party's strength, let alone judge his specific cultivation level.

The old man looked at Shiji with a fierce look in his eyes and a fighting spirit, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, I am the Red Dust Immortal. Boy, do you dare to fight me?"

Upon hearing this, Shiji raised a playful smile and asked softly, "Are you sure you want to fight me? Humph, it would be easy for me to take your life."

The old man just snorted coldly, clenched his fists, and rushed towards Shiji with all his might.

Seeing this, Shiji's face froze slightly, but he did not retreat. Instead, he swung his fists to meet the old man's attack.

The power of the Red Dust Immortal and the Great Emperor collided in an instant, producing a visible energy ripple, which quickly spread and turned into two shock waves, sweeping in all directions.

"Bang bang bang!"

Under the impact of the shock wave, the two figures each took a few steps back, but quickly stabilized their bodies.

The old man stared at Shiji in shock and exclaimed, "You actually blocked my attack?"

Shiji smiled calmly and said, "What do you think?"

Hearing this, the old man nodded, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes. He rushed towards Shiji again, this time, his attack was more fierce, as if he wanted to crush Shiji completely.

However, Shiji did not choose to confront him head-on, but instead dodged the old man's attack cleverly.

The battle between the two unfolded fiercely in mid-air, and every move and style contained earth-shattering power, causing the surrounding space to tremble violently. Some mountains collapsed in the aftermath of the battle between the two, turning into pieces of broken magma that splashed everywhere.

Shiji's figure flickered like a ghost, and she started a fierce battle with the old man. For a while, the two of them fought hard and neither of them could gain the upper hand.

The old man was shocked. He thought to himself, "Who is this brat? How can he have such a strong power?" You know, he is a mortal immortal. Although he is only a low-level immortal, he is definitely a well-known strong man in the heavens and the myriad worlds. (End of this chapter)
