Primordial Era: Starting with Chaotic Double Pupils, Becoming an Apprentice to the Willow God

"You two little rascals."

Ye Xuan walked over slowly and said with a smile.

"They've done their best to look after the house for the past three months."

Ye Xuan pointed to Liu Shen behind him.

"Go, your master has something to say to you."

Upon hearing this, the two small animals trembled.

The Willow Goddess is going to guide them? This is an incredible opportunity!

Without any hesitation, they scrambled to the willow tree and knelt respectfully on the ground.

The willow branches sway gently.

Profound thoughts entered their minds.

That is the true mystery of the "Divine Fire Realm," an orthodox method that even the upper realms may not be able to access.

The Willow God didn't teach them any earth-shattering techniques; he simply gave them some pointers on how to refine their bloodlines and ignite their Dao fire.

But for them, who had been stuck in the Venerable Realm for many years, this was like seeing the sun after the clouds had parted.

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

The fur ball was so excited that its golden fur shone brightly; it sensed an opportunity for a breakthrough.

Xiao Hong's entire body was engulfed in pure flames, and her previously mottled bloodline was purified at this moment.

As long as they cultivate according to this method, within a few months, they will be able to truly ignite their divine fire, transcend the Venerable Ones, and become true gods!

The two little animals kowtowed frantically to the willow tree, their eyes filled with tears of gratitude.

They originally thought being captured and kept as pets was a great disgrace.

Now it seems...

This isn't being treated like a pet; it's clearly latching onto a powerful patron!

Let alone guarding the house, they would be willing to go and scoop out manure for Shicun Village right now!

Ye Xuan watched from the side and nodded slightly.

Give a beating and then a sweet treat.

Now, these two Venerable-level combatants have completely submitted to the cause.

......

In the blink of an eye, another three months have passed.

Under the willow trees in Shicun, on a smooth blue stone worn smooth by time, Ye Xuan sat quietly cross-legged.

At this moment, there were no earth-shattering phenomena or dazzling divine light surrounding him.

He looks simple and unpretentious, like a piece of warm and smooth jade, with all his sharpness hidden within.

But beneath that calm exterior lies a deep, unfathomable sea.

"Venerable Realm, Peak".

Ye Xuan slowly opened his eyes, and deep within his double pupils, the chaotic energy flowed several times faster than before.

During these three months, he studied the "Original True Explanation" and the "Six Paths of Reincarnation" day and night, integrating all his knowledge.

The array within his body had long since evolved to its limit, with innate Dao patterns engraved in every bone and every inch of flesh.

Now, he stands at the pinnacle of cultivation in the eight lower realms.

One more step forward is to ignite the divine fire, transcend the mortal realm, and become a god!

Ye Xuan could clearly sense that layer of window paper.

If he so desires, he can invoke the laws of heaven and earth at any time, or find a spark to ignite his own essence, energy, and spirit, and step into the realm that countless cultivators dream of.

"Divine Fire..."

Ye Xuan raised his hand, and a phantom flame flickered in his palm.

That was his deduction of his own Dao fruition.

But in the next second, he clenched his fist and extinguished the illusory flame.

"wrong!"

"Using external things to ignite oneself is ultimately a low-level tactic."

Ye Xuan shook his head.

In this world, igniting the divine fire usually requires the help of an external "fire".

The stronger the flame, the greater the potential after becoming a god.

However, he possesses dual portals, chaotic double pupils, and an innate physique from the primordial era.

If he were to follow the ordinary path, even if he were to ignite it with celestial fire, it would not be worthy of his destiny as the Human Emperor.

"My path should not be limited by heaven and earth."

"The human body is the universe; why seek it externally?"

The chaotic energy in Ye Xuan's eyes became even more intense, and he saw a certain possibility for the future.

To use oneself as a seed.

Without relying on external objects, one can tap into one's own inner treasures and allow the purest Dao fire to be born within the body.

This is the most perfect path of evolution, and also the path most suitable for the innate human physique.

"Suppress it for now."

Ye Xuan took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the urge to break through.

He compressed the boiling divine power within his body again and again.

The divine power that was originally as raging as the ocean was forcibly compressed into a viscous mercury paste, which settled in his limbs and bones.

Its profound heritage has become even more unfathomable.

Just as Ye Xuan had stabilized his realm.

"Boom!"

A muffled explosion suddenly came from not far away.

It was like a volcano deep in the earth being detonated.

A surge of vigorous, domineering, and energetic golden blood energy shot into the sky, directly scattering the clouds.

Ye Xuan turned his head to look.

Little Shi Hao was suspended in mid-air, his small body radiating a chilling energy fluctuation.

Behind him.

One bite, two bites, three bites...

Eight crater-like caves, lined up one after another and connected end to end, formed a dazzling divine ring hanging behind his head.

Eight Heavenly Caves!

Each cave was frantically absorbing and exhaling the essence of heaven and earth, and there were even lava-like runes flowing within them.

That was the Dao fruit he obtained through fighting and baptism in the Great Wilderness.

Although he is still young, and his face is still immature.

But at this moment, Xiao Shihao already possessed an air of dominance and self-importance.

That was the supreme young master!

"It's the Eighth Heavenly Cave."

Ye Xuan watched this scene with a smile of satisfaction on his lips.

Three months ago, this little guy had just opened the fifth level of his spiritual cultivation.

Now, with the opening of three more grotto-heavens in quick succession, if word got out, it would be enough to make those self-proclaimed geniuses in the outside world commit suicide out of shame and indignation.

"call--"

Xiao Shihao landed slowly, and the divine halo behind him disappeared.

He opened his eyes, and his eyes shone with an alarming brightness, like two golden lamps.

"Big brother! I've gotten stronger again!"

Xiao Shihao excitedly clenched his fist, making a crackling sound as he punched it.

"Even if ten more ferocious beasts at the Cave Heaven Realm came, I could take them all down with one hand!"

"Good, you didn't slack off."

Ye Xuan nodded in approval.

"But don't be arrogant, the Eighth Heavenly Cave is just the beginning. Your goal is the Tenth Heavenly Cave, or even..."

Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then spoke up.

"The One and Only Cave Heaven".

Xiao Shihao nodded as if he understood, and kept this goal in mind.

Just as the two brothers were exchanging their insights on spiritual practice...

On a tree branch not far away.

Two pairs of eyes were staring blankly at them, their eyes filled with despair and doubt about their very existence.

It's Zhu Yan and Xiao Hong.

These two once-powerful Venerable Ones, though having recovered much of their strength, are about to ignite their divine fire.

But when they looked at the two "monsters" in front of them, they were completely stunned.

"Squeak squeak squeak... I can't live like this anymore!"

Maoqiu held its head, looking utterly dejected.

It cultivated for hundreds of years and went through countless life-and-death trials before finally becoming a Venerable One.

What happened to these two humans?

One is suppressing his cultivation level and refusing to break through, while the other has opened up three new realms in three months.

Is this as simple as eating and drinking?

Where does this leave the faces of these ancient remnants?

On the other side, Xiao Hong, also known as Zhu Que, was even more restless.

She is a beautiful and proud divine bird.

For the past three months, she has watched Ye Xuan devour the flesh and blood of the Qiongqi and the Devouring Sky Sparrow every day.

Well, although it ate some too, the fear in its heart was growing day by day.
