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

This fight lasted a very short time and was over almost in the blink of an eye.

Afterwards, the troops from the three major temples, Beimo Temple, Lei Zezhou, and Fanzhou, evacuated one after another.

Shiji stepped forward and followed the group of people.

Along the way, they encountered many corpses, all of which had been eaten clean. It seemed that the owners of these corpses had also been attacked by the Soul-Eating Stone and died.

Immediately afterwards, several violent explosions were heard, and charred corpses appeared in front.

White smoke was coming out of the bodies, obviously they had been burned to ashes, but there was no trace of blood.

The common feature of these corpses is that there is a thin line between the eyebrows.

There seemed to be a flame burning in the thin line. The bodies of these people had been burned, but this one was relatively intact.

"What a weird soul-devouring stone." Shiji said, looking at the corpse.

"Do you know him?" asked the spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl.

"Of course I know it. It's called Soul Devouring Stone, and it's an extremely rare mineral. Rumor has it that it was formed by the condensation of countless resentments. This stone can temper the soul and improve its quality again.

However, if you want to upgrade to a higher level, you need to spend an unimaginable price. "Shiji explained.

"You know quite a lot, it seems the master has given you more information than this. However, don't say too much, lest you reveal your secrets."

The spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl was silent for a moment, then said, "However, if you are willing to tell me, I will teach you other magical skills, and your cultivation speed will be faster than anyone else."

"Hehe, don't worry, since I promised you, I will definitely fulfill my promise. You teach me your magical powers, and I will find a magic medicine for you."

Shiji grinned, stepped forward, and came to the side of the corpse. The corpse was still lifelike, like a sculpture, and it was unknown what state it was in when it was alive.

Shiji walked up to the corpse and looked at it carefully. Suddenly, a thin line flew out from between the corpse's eyebrows.

This thin line was like a flash of lightning, shooting into Shiji's mind. Suddenly, pieces of information poured into Shiji's mind.

These memories contain a lot of information about the Soul-Eating Stone.

"What a powerful soul fragment."

Shiji's face showed shock. These materials are very precious, especially the understanding of the soul, which is more profound and can even make people comprehend some mysteries.

"Okay, now I will teach you a set of skills." The voice of the spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl came from deep in Shiji's dantian: "It's called the Golden Purgatory Technique!"

"The Golden Purgatory Art, could it be the practice of the Yellow Spring Divine Seal Art?" Shi Ji was confused when he heard this.

“Yes, it is the Yellow Spring Divine Seal.” The voice of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl’s spirit came: “This is the original version of the technique left by the master. As long as you practice the second level, you will be equivalent to a quasi-god. However, it is very difficult to step into the third level.”

"Is this martial art really so powerful?" Shiji asked in confusion when he heard this.

"It's more than amazing, it's simply amazing." The spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl said proudly, "It was created by the joint efforts of all the emperors."

"The emperors worked together to create it?" Shiji was surprised when he heard this. This kind of skill must be extremely terrifying, and it is definitely not inferior to the God and Demon Sutra.

"Okay, let's start practicing." Shiji nodded after hearing this. He sat cross-legged quietly on the spot, practicing the Golden Purgatory Technique.

As he practiced the Golden Purgatory Technique, his figure gradually faded and then disappeared.

Half an incense stick of time later, Shiji reappeared in the depths of the mountain. His aura was extremely powerful, and he exuded terrifying power fluctuations.

He opened his eyes, looked ahead and said, "What a domineering Yuan Shen technique. This technique is indeed a peerless divine skill, worthy of being created by the emperors."

"This move is called the Golden Purgatory Fist."

At this time, the voice of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl's spirit continued, "This divine skill is divided into seven levels, and each level contains seven kinds of killing skills. The seventh level is the Killing Sword Qi, and the eighth level is the Golden Killing Sword Skill."

"Golden Killing Sword Technique." Shiji frowned upon hearing this. He had not practiced this magical skill, but if he wanted to understand it, he had to enter the core of the Burial God Cave, or the central location of the Burial God Island.

“Yes, this divine skill is very powerful.” The spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl said, “It’s powerful enough to rival a low-level innate treasure, but it’s less effective against a Saint-level warrior.”

"Although this magical skill is powerful, if you want to cultivate it to the seventh level, it will probably require a great opportunity." Shiji said with his hands behind his back.

“Don’t worry about that, because you can cultivate it now.” The spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl said with a proud smile.

"Can I accomplish it now?" Shiji said with a little surprise when she heard that.

"Yes, you just absorbed the fragments of the incomplete soul of this powerful person, and you have obtained everything recorded in it." The spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl laughed and said, "I will pass it on to you now."

Before he finished speaking, his figure floated out and hung in the void, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, and a strange power quietly surged towards Shiji's brows.

Upon hearing this, Shiji nodded slightly, then closed his eyes, feeling countless information flooding into his mind like a tide. It was a unique martial art - the Golden Purgatory Technique, an offensive martial art.

"Yes, it is worthy of being created by the joint efforts of the emperors. It is indeed extremely mysterious." Shiji secretly admired in his heart: "If I master this method, I will be able to fight even against the Great Sage!"

He is already a powerful body cultivator with an extremely strong physique. If he further practices the Golden Purgatory Technique, his physical defense will surely reach an unimaginable level.

"Very good, go find the Soul Devouring Dark Stone as soon as possible. This stone was made by the master himself." The spirit of the Heaven Devouring Bowl said, "If you find it and integrate it into your Nine Cauldrons, you will be able to exert even stronger power. In addition, this Dark Stone contains an extremely powerful force. If you can comprehend it, perhaps you can resolve the grudge between you and Bei Yin Yang."

"Okay!" Shiji responded. As he spoke, a vast and boundless power emanated from his body and he walked towards the ancient ruins in the distance.

A hundred miles away from here stands a huge tomb, towering into the clouds and covering a vast area. In the tomb lies a coffin.

The coffin is engraved with intricate patterns, which are mysterious and profound, interweaving into a unique pattern.

At this moment, a cracking sound came from the tomb. The tomb surface suddenly cracked, and the cracks on the coffin became more and more, and finally collapsed with a loud bang, revealing a hideous corpse.

The corpse was as pale as paper, completely bloodless, except for its two eyes which shone with a bloodthirsty red light. It was obviously a zombie. The zombie's head rolled to the side without a sound.

At the moment the zombie's head rolled down, a pitch-black iron chain flew out from the grave, carrying a sharp breath, and lashed the zombie's neck like a divine whip.

The zombie screamed and struggled violently, trying to stand up, but as soon as he stood up, the iron chain locked his neck again. Then, the dark iron chain dragged the zombie's body into the abyss in the distance and disappeared.

At the same time, Shiji's figure appeared in another area. A tremendous momentum rose from his body, and the surrounding soil exploded and shattered.

A terrifying aura emanated from him, rising steadily, as sharp as a sword about to be unsheathed, as if it could cut through the sky with one breath.

"I finally broke through and entered the realm of the Great Sage. This time I actually crossed two small realms in my practice." Shiji murmured to himself, "Not bad, not bad."

His spiritual realm finally broke through the bottleneck and completely entered the realm of Great Sage.

"Congratulations!" At this time, the voice of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl spirit rang in Shiji's ears: "You are determined and have successfully cultivated the fourth level of the technique this time."

"I wonder if I can cultivate to the fifth level?" Shiji couldn't help but ask. The sixth level was too difficult, even a saint would find it difficult to fully comprehend it.

“If you can fully comprehend it, you can cultivate to the sixth level.” The spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl said proudly.

"That's not enough." Shiji shook her head and said, "You must cultivate to the seventh level before you can cultivate to the eighth level, or even the ninth, tenth, or even the eleventh level."

"It all depends on your luck." The spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl said bitterly, "It all depends on chance."

"Opportunity?" Shiji frowned slightly, remained silent for a moment, and stared into the void for a long time without saying a word.

At this moment, the spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl said, "It's time for us to leave."

"Are you leaving?" Shiji asked in surprise.

“That’s right. I will take you to the depths of the God Burial Valley and help you obtain several other treasures so that you can further improve your strength and become a god as soon as possible.” said the spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl.

"God Burial Valley!" Shi Ji muttered to himself, "I heard that in the flame swamp deep in the God Burial Valley, there is a strange flower called Evergreen Magnolia!"

"You know? Who told you?" The spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl was shocked when he heard this.

"I guessed it myself." Shiji smiled and said, "Since you know, it will be easy. Please go with me. I want to go and take a look."

"Okay!" The spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl agreed immediately.

"Senior, I have one more thing to ask of you. I want to place my parents' remains here." Shiji suddenly spoke. He was heartbroken when his grandparents passed away.

"That's easy. Just put its skeleton into this space." The spirit of the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl said cheerfully, "Okay, leave quickly. We'll leave immediately."

Shiji nodded upon hearing this, turned and walked towards the ancient battlefield, gazing at the distant horizon with a sharp gaze.

At the end of the distant sky, a hazy area is looming, and a mountain range can be vaguely seen stretching across it, like a sleeping demon, exuding a heart-pounding breath.

The mountains were filled with pure evil, and the evil energy reached the sky, which was chilling.

"There will be a battle eventually." Shiji put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, and his face was stern. He took a step forward and disappeared on the spot. He did not return to Brunei Island, but rushed straight to the southern border.

He had sensed the changes over there. There was a strong man fighting fiercely. The strong man exuded an evil aura and was several times stronger than the previous Evil King. It was obvious that he had reached the realm of half-step quasi-god.

"I wonder who is fighting here." Shiji quietly observed the scene in the distance, thinking to himself: "No matter where you come from, if you dare to provoke China, I will make sure you never return."

His figure flashed through the void like lightning, and disappeared in an instant. In less than ten minutes, he was already in the sky above the western part of Southern Xinjiang.

In the western region, a blood moon hangs high in the sky.

Under the blood moon, this area has become a ruin. The once powerful Miao people have now turned into scorched earth. Plants have fallen to the ground, and flames are still burning on the ruins of buildings.

A man in black was sitting cross-legged in the ruins, his cheeks as dry as a skull, a terrifying aura surging from his body, like a devil, with bloodshot eyes.

This person was none other than Xie Fenglei, the son of the Evil Emperor. He escaped after being severely injured by Shiji and was later saved by the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl. Although he survived the disaster, he was eventually swallowed by the Heaven-Swallowing Bowl, while Xie Fenglei managed to survive.

At this moment, the sound of a hurricane roared from the distant void, and then a dark cloud emerged from the hurricane, with three figures standing in the dark cloud.

The leader was Shiji.

A cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his figure flashed and appeared above the area.

"Xie Fenglei?" Shiji put his hands behind his back, looked at Xie Fenglei's figure, smiled faintly and said, "Why are you here?"

Hearing this, Xie Fenglei laughed wildly and looked up at the sky. He stared at Shi Ji and said, "Little beast, I have been waiting for you for a long time. Boy, surrender obediently and I can spare your life, otherwise I will make you die!"

"Oh? Xie Fenglei, do you want to die?" Shi Ji heard this and stared at Xie Fenglei with cold eyes.

"Looking for death? Shiji, do you think you are my opponent?" Xie Fenglei suddenly laughed arrogantly and said, "If you kneel down and kowtow to me and call me daddy now, maybe I will be soft-hearted and let you go. Otherwise, you will surely die."

"Humph!" Shi Ji snorted coldly, looked at Xie Fenglei and said, "Do you think my current strength is not enough to compete with you?"

"That's right!" Xie Fenglei stepped forward, pointed at Shiji and said, "Shiji, your fate is destined to be suppressed under the ancestral tomb of my Xie family, and you will never be able to turn over."

"I remember your master also wanted to use this sentence to deal with me back then." Shiji suddenly looked at Xie Fenglei and said, "But what was the result?"

"The result? As a result, your master's head was blown up by me and he was refined into a pill. The same goes for you. Your ending is destined to be like this!" Xie Fenglei stared at Shiji with cold eyes.

"Xie Fenglei, you mad dog!" Shi Ji heard this and laughed wildly towards the sky, "You are not qualified to be my enemy at all. I will make you understand that no one can stop me.

Even if it is your Xie family, it will not work. The Xie family will be eradicated sooner or later. I will destroy the souls of everyone in your Xie family and make you suffer a torture worse than death!"

"You bastard, you're looking for death!" Upon hearing this, Xie Feng Lei roared to the sky. An even more evil airflow emerged from his body, and he stretched out his hand and slapped out.

Suddenly, a strange talisman flew out from the sky, carrying with it a terrible evil power that was enough to burn the body of a strong man in the realm of supernatural powers.

This attack is Xie Fenglei's signature killer move, and his power is continuously transmitted into the talisman.

The talisman roared towards the sky, its power becoming more and more terrifying, sweeping towards Shiji with endless resentment.

"Unable to withstand a single blow!" (End of this chapter)
