The man was devouring, but the system was in the primordial world.

"We've broken through!"

Bai Er let out a long breath, his expression becoming relaxed.

Once one advances to the Golden Immortal realm, it's like going from an ant to a minor expert. As long as one doesn't provoke those legendary powerful beings, in the current prehistoric world, one can barely be considered to have the ability to protect oneself.

Most importantly, the true spirit of a Golden Immortal possesses the quality of immortality.

When a Golden Immortal suffers a calamity, their true spirit will not be easily extinguished. Instead, it will be drawn into the Sea of ​​Return to Nothingness, and after a long period of time, it will return and form a similar flower.

It is very difficult to eradicate a true spirit.

The true spirit of a Golden Immortal requires at least the intervention of a Great Luo Immortal to be eradicated.

However, if it is the true spirit of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, then unless a Daluo Golden Immortal takes action, an ordinary Daluo Golden Immortal simply cannot completely obliterate a true spirit of this level.

"However, isn't this timeline a bit off?"

They hadn't even experienced the Three Races War, so how did they suddenly jump to the Dao Ancestor giving a sermon... Bai'e looked at the light screen in confusion, temporarily suppressing his doubts.

After breaking through to the Golden Immortal realm, the power of the Cicada's Divine Wind you mastered has greatly increased. At the same time, due to years of cultivation, you have also gained extraordinary insights into the two Great Daos of Water and Earth.

Sensing your own condition, you decide to find a place to retreat into seclusion.

After many twists and turns, you found an extremely strange valley in the eastern part of the primordial world, where the winds from all directions gather and wisps of white mist rise.

This appears to be some kind of naturally formed treasure land.

You cautiously stepped inside, wielding the Wind-Slaying Sword and clad in the Heavenly Rainbow Robe. Your combat prowess was almost on par with that of a Taiyi master.

Finally, you've confirmed that this is a naturally formed formation.

Endless clouds and mist drifted in, obscuring the path you had taken. Judging from the reaction of the great formation, you realized that this seemed to be an unclaimed innate Daoist temple.

A sense of joy welled up in your heart.

[But you know that haste makes waste, so you've been unusually cautious when facing the grand formation.]

You probe the formations one by one, deducing their structure from the reactions, and then carefully dismantle them.

Finally, thanks to the advantages of your Cloud Spirit form and your own insights, you successfully broke through the formation and obtained the low-grade innate spiritual treasure within—the Nine Treasures Flowing Cloud Fan.

This is a magical treasure capable of controlling the flow of wind, water, and clouds.

[You gently waved the Nine Treasures Flowing Cloud Fan, and instantly the wind and clouds trembled. An endless pressure raged between heaven and earth. In terms of power alone, it was enough to make even a Taiyi Golden Immortal take it seriously.]

[Hastily refining the boundary stone of Flowing Cloud Valley, leaving behind a trace of the Cicada's Knowledge Divine Wind's essence to strengthen the innate grand formation, you turn and leave this training ground, heading towards Cloud Mountain.]

You just missed your target.

Eager to share the good news but unable to see your beloved teacher, you finally remember that it is time for Master Hongjun's second sermon.

You calmed your mind and cultivated silently, and finally, thousands of years later, you met the Red Cloud Ancestor who had returned from his travels.

Hearing about your past experiences, he said, "This boy is like me." You didn't quite understand and were about to ask again when you saw him pat the red gourd at his waist.

[You only just realized that this is the Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Red Gourd, a top-grade innate spiritual treasure he just acquired.]

[Old Ancestor Hongyun started frantically reaching into his pockets again.]

As you watched him take out ginseng fruits one by one, your lips twitched. You thought to yourself, it's only thanks to Zhen Yuanzi's good temper that my teacher hasn't been beaten to death for this behavior.

However, like teacher, like student; you accept all of Hongyun Patriarch's care without question.

[However, the ginseng fruit belongs to the wood element in the Five Elements theory. Having only one element is not enough for you to successfully condense the five elements within your chest. After reporting the good news, you will begin your journey through the primordial world again.]

The merits you accumulated previously have been largely depleted due to the breakthrough, forcing you to return to your old ways and continue mending and patching.

[But you don't know that the happy days are about to be gone forever]

During his third sermon, Hongjun Daozu distributed Primordial Purple Qi. Your teacher was "lucky" enough to receive the last strand of Primordial Purple Qi as a disciple.

Zhen Yuanzi protected him and led him away from Zixiao Palace.

Unfortunately, Zhen Yuanzi alone was outnumbered and outmatched. A large group of innate deities, led by the demon race, surrounded and intercepted them, eventually cornering the two on the side of Zhou Mountain.

[The supreme treasure, the Earth Book, boasts unparalleled defense, yet even it cannot withstand a multitude of powerful opponents.]

[Just then, you were traveling and passing through Zhou Mountain. It was at this moment that your teacher was forced to self-destruct. The Primordial Purple Qi disappeared without a trace, leaving only a wisp of his primordial spirit hidden in the Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Red Gourd.]

Upon seeing this, your eyes widened in fury.

[Seeing that the damned Kunpeng was about to continue his attack, and Zhen Yuanzi was blocked by the powerful demons, you actually sacrificed yourself, activating the Nine Treasures Flowing Cloud Fan to self-destruct, managing to withstand Kunpeng's claws for just a moment longer.]

Finally, the radiance of the Earth Book surged forth like a tidal wave.

Zhen Yuanzi protected the Red Gourd that scattered Jiu Jiu's soul, using the Earth Book to connect the forces of mountains and rivers, dragging down the Zhou Mountain's earth veins to preserve Hong Yun's remnant soul.

As your true spirit dissipated in its final moments, you watched the retreating powerhouse and a faint smile slowly appeared on your face...

Watching the entire process of the last simulated subject saving Hongyun, Bai'e was first slightly stunned, and then revealed a complicated look.

Am I that kind of person?

To save Ancestor Hongyun, he sacrificed his true spirit, leaving him with no next life. Given the conditions of the prehistoric world, even a saint would probably be unable to bring him back.

To be fair, he can't do that now.

Of course, in the simulation, Yunling and Hongyun Ancestor have spent many years together. Their relationship started with a life-saving favor, so ending it like this might be a kind of fulfillment in another sense.

[This simulation has ended]

[Rating: A-95]

[In the simulation, you were persistent in your pursuit of the Great Dao, and you remained devoted throughout your life. As a Nine Heavens Cloud Spirit, you reached the pinnacle of the Golden Immortal realm. Your performance amazed all the powerful beings. Looking back on everything, you have lived up to the expectations of others, yourself, and the primordial world.]

You can choose four items from the following options.

【Level 1: Golden Immortal Cultivation (The five elements of wood, water, and earth have been gathered in the chest)】

【Part Two: Supernatural Power 'Cicada's Knowledge of Divine Wind' (Peak of Golden Immortal Realm)】

【Part Three: The Treasure Book of Ten Thousand Winds】

Part Four: Reflections on Repairing Earth's Veins and Water Sources

【Five: Ginseng Fruit x12】

[Six: Flowing Cloud Valley Boundary Stone (Mid-grade Innate Magic Treasure)]

……

[Seventy-one: Golden Spring of the Earth]

【Seventy-two: Ten-Thousand-Year Water Spirit Essence】

……

【734: Heavenly Rainbow Robe (Mid-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure)】

【735: Wind-Slaying Sword (Mid-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure)】

【736: Nine Treasures Flowing Cloud Fan (Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, Sealed)】

"An 'A' rating corresponds to a Golden Immortal, which is a Universe Venerable. The simulation results allow you to directly select four items. Indeed, becoming a Golden Immortal is quite different."

Looking at the dazzling array of treasures, Bai'e was almost overwhelmed by the choices.

After looking around carefully, he realized that he could use everything here, although some common options could be eliminated.

"The Nine Treasures Flowing Cloud Fan is a must-have!"

"Hmm... The 'Treasury of Myriad Winds' is a legacy, but the supernatural power 'Cicada's Divine Wind' should be considered a peak secret technique of a cosmic venerable, or a composite type of secret technique. Since the two overlap, you can choose two directly."

"The fourth insight is not necessary. At this stage, the most important thing is the bloodline treasure, and other energy-type treasures can be skipped."

Therefore, ginseng fruit should also be excluded.

Bai'e's gaze lingered on the boundary stone of Liuyun Valley, the Tianni Robe, and the Zhanfeng Sword. Finally, he looked at the boundary stone of Liuyun Valley.

"Boundary Stone, Boundary Stone... Is this considered a spatial treasure?"

The light screen did not respond.

Cretaceous was not surprised by this.

The system is unreliable, and since it may involve space, there's no harm in taking a gamble. Besides, innate magic treasures are only the lower level of innate spiritual treasures. Spiritual treasures refined later may not be as useful as innate treasures in comprehending the fundamental laws.

"I choose two, six, seven hundred and thirty-four, and seven hundred and thirty-six."
