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

Shi Ji had already killed the Dark King.

Shi Ji did not intend to cultivate this Blood River Scripture.

Although she is the reincarnation of the Reincarnation Immortal Venerable, her father, Lin Qi, is not the Reincarnation Immortal Venerable.

She had no desire to inherit the legacy of the Reincarnation Immortal Venerable.

"The Blood River Scripture is indeed a valuable item. If one can obtain this scripture, it will undoubtedly bring about a tremendous transformation in one's combat strength. At that time, the use of many forbidden techniques will be even more terrifying!"

Shi Ji muttered to herself.

The value of the Blood River Classic is beyond doubt.

If one can obtain this technique, it will greatly benefit Shi Ji, and her combat power will increase dramatically.

"The Blood River Scripture is indeed excellent! However, the conditions for cultivating this scripture are too harsh. Even if one succeeds in cultivating it, it will have a huge impact on oneself. If one wishes to cultivate it, one must sever the karmic ties with the Blood River Scripture as soon as possible!"
Shi Ji said, "That's natural. However, I will soon leave the outer starry sky and return to the Immortal Ruins Realm. After I leave, I can sever the karmic ties with the Blood River Scripture!"

Grandpa Insect nodded.

He then fell silent.

Shi Ji sensed that Grandpa Insect seemed to have something to say, but hesitated to speak.

"Perhaps I should ask them about it!"

Shi Ji pondered to herself.

But she quickly shook her head.

The Insect Lord has not regained his former cultivation level.

Shi Jiruo asked rashly.

The bug master may not provide the answer.

Moreover, this was a private matter for Master Chong, and Shi Ji did not wish to inquire further.

"By the way, Lord Insect, I've heard that the Insect Race has three progenitors. Is that true?"

Shi Ji asked.

"That's absolutely true!"

"Master Insect said with a smile."

"Did those three ancestors leave any relics?" Shi Ji asked.

Her eyes brightened slightly.

The three progenitors were all unparalleled heroes, and their relics may contain some treasures.

"The ruins are indeed there, but I don't know if you can find them!" said Insect Master.

"What kind of ruins are they?" Shi Ji asked in surprise.

The Insect Lord said, "Come with me, and you will find out."

Shi Ji nodded, and then followed Insect Lord into the depths of darkness.

Soon the two entered a valley.

There is a huge stone platform in the valley.

Three statues stand around the stone platform.

These three eagles are the progenitors of the insectoid race.

These are statues of the three progenitors of the Zerg.

All three progenitors had the appearance of a human head and a snake's body.

Moreover, each of the three progenitors held a long spear.

"Why are the three progenitors each holding a spear? Could it be that they are preparing to kill an enemy?"

Looking at the three stone sculptures, Shi Ji frowned. At this moment, Insect Master said, "You guessed right. These three ancestors used these three stone spears to attack the enemy. I also participated in that great battle back then, but the outcome of the battle was beyond my control!"

"After that great battle, the three progenitors perished!"

"I have never seen any of the three of them make a move, nor have I seen their remains!"

"However, there are rumors that after their deaths, the Blood River Scripture was scattered throughout the universe. Perhaps they still exist in the world?"

"Master Insect continued."

“The conditions for cultivating the Blood River Scripture are indeed very strict, and even I am not confident that I can fully master it.”

"Moreover, the difficulty of cultivating it is extremely high, terrifying, and ordinary people simply cannot control the Blood River Scripture!"

“But I believe you can perfectly master the Blood River Scripture,” said Insect Lord.

Shi Ji couldn't help but smile wryly and shake her head. Although her talent was strong, it was only among her peers.

If placed within the ranks of monks.

Her qualifications are neither top-notch nor bad.

Even among cultivators, her talent was not among the top geniuses.

Therefore, Shi Ji did not believe that she could control the Blood River Scripture.

However, since Master Chong said so, Shi Ji thought it might be worth a try.

After all, Bug Master's eye for talent has always been sharp.

Shi Ji sat cross-legged.

He then began to circulate the Blood River Scripture.

The Blood River Circulation Circulates in an instant.

A tremendous aura suddenly surged from within the scroll.

The Blood River Scripture's aura enveloped Shi Ji's body directly.

Shi Ji then felt as if she had lost control of herself.

She felt like she had become a bystander.

The aura of the Blood River Sutra enveloped her.

Shi Ji's soul and the Blood River Scripture formed a mysterious fusion.

That feeling was truly strange.

"The cultivation of the Blood River Scripture is truly unbelievable. I originally thought that this secret could only be solved by cultivating the Blood River Scripture, but I never expected that even I could use the characteristics of the Blood River Scripture to cultivate this scripture!"

Shi Ji couldn't help but show a look of joy.

Then she tried to circulate the Blood River Scripture. The scripture flowed through her body, and her blood began to boil.

She exuded a sinister aura.

The sinister aura swirled around Shi Ji, causing her skin and even her pores to contract violently.

That eerie aura was like a group of man-eating demons.

Shi Ji hurriedly stopped circulating the Blood River Scripture. She was horrified to find that her circulation of the Blood River Scripture was getting slower and slower, and she eventually completely lost control of the scripture.

Shi Ji's expression changed drastically.

Large beads of sweat appeared on her forehead; this place was truly dangerous.

There was a slight mishap.

They might die without a proper burial.

And this moment.

Within Shi Ji's dantian, a surge of blood-red light erupted, and within that light, the figure of a young girl materialized.

It is indeed the little girl.

"Young master, what's wrong?" Little Nannan looked at Shiji with concern.

Shi Ji said bitterly, "The situation here is too strange! I dare not continue cultivating for the time being!"

"Let Nannan protect Yunheng!" said the little girl.

“Okay!” Shi Ji nodded.

The little girl transformed into a stream of light and disappeared into Shi Ji's sea of ​​consciousness.

Immediately afterwards, she began to activate the Blood River Scripture.

In an instant, the blood mist in the void surged into Xiao Nannan's body, rapidly tempering her physical form.

Shi Ji was surprised to find that the little girl was actually absorbing the blood mist.

"This little girl's physical body was already extremely strong, and now that it has been tempered by the blood mist, it will likely reach an even higher level. Moreover, her bloodline seems to be showing signs of a breakthrough!"

Shi Ji was overjoyed.

The little girl possesses the bloodline of a demon lord and is also a descendant of the Nine Netherworld Demon Emperor.

Both the Demon Lord and the Nine Netherworld Demon Emperor are rulers of the divine realm.

The little girl inherited the bloodline of the Demon Lord and was infused with a drop of the Nine Nether Demon Emperor's essence blood by Shi Ji. Her bloodline was so powerful that it could rival the top geniuses of the God Realm.

She absorbed the blood mist extremely quickly, and in a short time, Shi Ji realized that a quarter of the blood mist had been consumed.

This made Shi Ji frown slightly.

"This little guy has quite an appetite. If he absorbs all of this blood mist, his cultivation efficiency could increase by hundreds or even thousands of times!"

Shi Ji thought to herself, quite shocked.

Over the years, he has encountered many opportunities, but not every one of them has allowed him to rapidly improve his cultivation level.

In addition, a vast amount of rare and precious materials are needed to aid cultivation; otherwise, how could one easily improve their cultivation level?
Now, despite consuming so much blood mist, the little girl shows no sign of advancing.

Shi Ji couldn't help but sigh softly.

The little girl is indeed extremely talented, but her accumulated knowledge is too shallow. It is already remarkable that she has reached this level of cultivation; if she wants to go further, it will obviously be fraught with difficulties.

"Huh, Yun Heng, I sense another fluctuation of power. Could that power be within Yun Heng's body?"

The little girl suddenly spoke, sensing another ancient and terrifying power fluctuation.

The fluctuation caused the little girl's body to tremble slightly; it was a sense of pressure at the level of bloodline.

The oppressive feeling was so strong that it almost suffocated the little girl. She even felt that if she dared to make a move, she would surely die. "Could this be the source of the River of Destiny?"

A bold conjecture arose in Shi Ji's mind.

The power fluctuations I sensed earlier were quite similar to those of the River of Destiny.

But Shi Ji knew that this was not the power of the River of Destiny—the River of Destiny was the ultimate guardian of the Tianwu Continent and would never harm anyone.

But the power felt unusually cold, sinister, and brutal to Shi Ji.

Shi Ji took a deep breath and began to mobilize the various supernatural powers recorded in the Blood River Scripture.

Various supernatural powers flew out from the Blood River Scripture, circling the rocky islet, and then gradually disappeared into the bloodline.

Immediately afterwards, those bloodlines began to frantically absorb the Qi and blood within Shiji's dantian.

The blood and qi in Shi Ji's dantian are the essence of his own bloodline, containing the power to destroy the world. If it were to explode, its power would surely be earth-shattering.

These bloodlines have all been refined by Shi Ji, and he can manipulate them at will.

However, at this moment, Shiji's bloodline is constantly weakening.

He realized that the blood and qi in his dantian were being drained away, and he tried to stop it, but he was powerless to do so.

The little girl was also absorbing the Qi and blood from Shiji's dantian, but her cultivation level was too low, and her absorption speed was far slower than the Qi and blood she lost.

The blood and qi in Shiji's dantian were still being rapidly drawn away.

His face was pale, as if he had fallen into a dark abyss and felt that he was about to die.

A series of booming sounds came from his dantian, and his body seemed to be burning.

When her blood vessels were completely depleted, Shi Ji felt as if her blood had been evaporated and her bones were cracking inch by inch.

"Don't resist, I'll help you restore your bloodline!"

Shi Ji said through gritted teeth.

He planned to have the little girl help him recover by consuming his own blood, which was the safest method.

Although she didn't know if the little girl could do it, Shiji couldn't just sit and wait for death.

Perhaps there is still hope?

The little girl nodded obediently and opened her mouth to swallow the Qi and blood from Shi Ji's dantian.

Shi Ji saw a vortex appear on the little girl's abdomen, and that vortex was frantically devouring his bloodline.

His vital energy was constantly being consumed by the little girl, who seemed to be undergoing a transformation.

The duration of this process was unknown; Shiji only heard loud chanting sounds in her ears.

"The Way of the Three Pure Ones is the Way of Nature!"

"The Way follows nature, the Way follows nature, the Way follows nature..."

again and again.

As Shi Ji’s mind drifted to the verses of scripture, her heart gradually returned to peace.

Meanwhile, the blood and energy in his dantian flowed continuously towards the little girl.

The less blood and qi there is in the dantian of the stone pool, the stronger the blood vessels of the little girl.

Her cultivation level also increased at an astonishing rate.

After the bloodlines were fully integrated, Xiao Nannan's cultivation had reached the peak of the Yin-Yang Realm.

Her bloodline has not yet truly entered the path of immortality, all because her cultivation level is too low, so she has only cultivated to the peak of the Yin-Yang Realm.

However, since Xiao Nannan controls the bloodline of Shiji, if she can break through to the Quasi-Immortal Realm, she will surely make rapid progress, and may even condense her own primordial spirit.

This step is extremely crucial.

Of course, if she could obtain a Primordial Stone Talisman, the little girl's future would be infinitely bright.

"Yunheng, this servant senses that your cultivation has improved; you have actually reached the peak of the Yin-Yang Realm!"

The little girl shouted excitedly.

Shi Ji's improved cultivation level is also a good thing for her.

"I've also noticed that Yun Heng's cultivation has improved!" Poison Ancestor exclaimed excitedly.

Shi Ji's improved cultivation level is also related to their safety.

"Master, why is your bloodline being depleted so drastically?" Poison Ancestor asked in confusion.

Shi Ji smiled bitterly and said, "This is all because of the little girl! I originally thought that she could make her bloodline purer by consuming my essence and blood, but I underestimated the special nature of her bloodline - her bloodline can devour the blood and qi of others, and there are often special restrictions in the bloodlines of others, so my bloodline can absorb those restrictions."

"My life force is being devoured by the little girl's bloodline!"

"I'm worried that if this continues, we might not be able to hold out for long!"

"Little girl, stop now! If you don't stop, we'll both die!"

Shi Ji was in a very bad state at this time, and Xiao Nannan seemed to realize that she had made a big mistake.

She cried and said to Shi Ji, "Father, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I shouldn't have eaten your blood. Please forgive me, okay? I promise I will never steal your blood again."

Upon hearing Xiao Nannan's words, Shi Ji's face showed relief—it seemed that she had realized her mistake.

This is something to be happy about.

Children need to be taught at all times.

If they are not guided early and allowed to act recklessly, they will inevitably cause a major disaster sooner or later.

“It’s alright, Father doesn’t blame you. Let’s rest for a while and then leave this place. It’s not safe to stay here any longer,” Shi Ji said gently.

"Mmm!" The little girl nodded emphatically, then leaned against Shi Ji's chest and fell into a deep sleep.

"Miss is truly composed. Anyone else would have been terrified, but she was able to close her eyes and rest. I am truly impressed," the Poison Ancestor exclaimed in amazement.

Shi Ji smiled and said nothing more.

The next day, the two left the cave and headed out.

Shi Ji sealed the cave.

This cave is too eerie to be discovered; otherwise, the consequences could be dire.

"Huh? What is this?"

Shi Ji suddenly frowned slightly, noticing several jade slips piled up in the corner of the cave. He picked up the jade slips and examined them carefully.

These jade slips record many ancient cultivation methods, but Shiji cannot understand them.

He tried to understand its meaning, but failed.

Shi Ji found the jade slips to be obscure and difficult to understand. Even when she tried to comprehend the simpler techniques, she found them extremely difficult, and she couldn't even recognize all the characters in some of them.

These techniques must have been written by a powerful master.

Shi Ji speculated that the jade slip might have been obtained by chance.

He sighed inwardly: If it were just an ordinary cultivation technique, it would be fine, but if it were a high-level immortal sect-level cultivation technique, it would be extremely valuable.

However, there are no immortal-level cultivation techniques here at all.

Even though Shi Ji is currently cultivating the imperial lineages, they are only at the Emperor level.

Shi Ji was truly unlucky; the imperial inheritances she received were only suitable for ordinary people to cultivate.

Along the way, although he acquired hundreds of cultivation techniques, such as the Nine Revolutions Thunder Control Immortal Technique and the Myriad Phenomena Return to One Sword Manual, he did not cultivate any of them.

He wasn't particularly fond of these techniques.

These techniques are extraordinary, but they are not Shiji's main goal.

What she seeks are those top-tier immortal techniques and supernatural powers.

"Oh my, what is this?" Poison Ancestor suddenly exclaimed.

Upon hearing the sound, Shi Ji rushed towards the Poison Ancestor.

She then saw it.

A jet-black plant took root deep underground.

The pitch-black plant was surrounded by dense black mist.

It also emits a pungent, highly poisonous odor.

"What is this?" Shi Ji asked, frowning.

The Poison Ancestor said, "This spiritual herb has nine leaves, and each leaf contains a terrifyingly potent poison!"

"Furthermore, the Nine Leaves and One Flower is rumored to be a divine medicine, but its specific name is unknown."

Shi Ji reached out and grabbed at the elixir.

The elixir evaded Shi Ji's grasp and vanished in a blur.

"Did they escape?"

Shi Ji frowned.

The elixir was too mysterious, so Shi Ji temporarily abandoned her plan to hunt for it.

She took out her storage ring and placed the jade slip containing the immortal techniques and supernatural powers into it.

Shi Ji left with the little girl.

The little girl is too young to learn these supernatural powers.

Shi Ji plans to help Xiao Nannan improve her cultivation after returning to Qingyun Prefecture.

Shi Ji carried the little girl on her back.

With one step out of the void, one can instantly travel a hundred miles away.

She was extremely fast.

Carrying his little girl on his back, he strolled around as if taking a leisurely walk.

Wow, that's amazing!

Seeing Shi Ji traverse the void so easily and freely... (End of Chapter)
