Starting with being handed over to the Imperial Concubine, building a family with a thousand-year hi

The journey to Taidou Star is long and interstellar travel takes a long time. In addition, after she returns to the Star Palace, she will inevitably have to report the details of this trip and deal with sect affairs, leaving her with no time to spare. Therefore, Su Mu is not in a hurry.

His gaze swept over the golden object still shrouded in golden light, slumbering in enlightenment in the courtyard. Su Mu turned back to his bedroom and took out another Dao Integration Pill to swallow.

His soul immediately sank into a state of ultimate enlightenment, and the Dao Fire within his Qi Sea operated autonomously, tirelessly refining the remaining medicinal power of the Heavenly Pattern Dao Fire Pill and polishing the Dao Fire Divine Pattern.

After entering the True God Realm, Su Mu's cultivation speed has slowed down considerably compared to the mortal, grandmaster, and emperor stages.

However, this slowdown is only relative to his own incredible rate of transformation. Among all the true gods of the same level in the heavens, his cultivation progress and foundation accumulation are still unparalleled among his peers, and no one can match him.

The moment of enlightenment passes in the blink of an eye, and the years quietly flow by.

On December 28th, the system notification sound, which had been silent for many days, suddenly rang out, startling Su Mu from his state of enlightenment.

[Congratulations, host! Your beast son 'Gold' has advanced to the early stage of level nine flying beast. The system reward has been sent to the system warehouse. Please check!]

Several days later, Su Mu fully digested the medicinal power of the pills and comprehended the profound mysteries of the Great Dao, and slowly withdrew from the state of enlightenment.

The year has already entered the beginning of January.

He missed the Imperial God-worshiping Ceremony, but such secular rituals are meaningless to Su Mu now, so missing them is inconsequential.

Su Mu did not rush to go out. Instead, he calmed his mind, opened the system warehouse, and checked the advancement rewards for the gold breakthrough.

Previously, when Jinzi broke through from the early stage of level eight to the late stage of level eight, the system rewarded him with a mid-grade divine-level immobilization talisman and two low-grade divine-level treasures. This time, breaking through to level nine, the reward will only be even more extraordinary.

As expected, among the rewards this time was a top-grade divine treasure!

A lifelike Heavenly Fire Puppet, wreathed in celestial flames, is quietly displayed in the warehouse.

The realms of cultivators in the heavens are clearly defined, with the three levels of the Heavenly God Realm being strictly separated: Dharma Form transforming into Heavenly Form is the early stage of Heavenly God; Dao Fire transforming into Heavenly Fire is the middle stage of Heavenly God; and Dao Embryo condensing into Dharma Body is the late stage of Heavenly God.

This Heavenly Fire Puppet has nurtured an innate Heavenly Fire, and its combat power is comparable to that of a mid-stage Heavenly God Realm expert!

"Great item!"

A glint flashed in Su Mu's eyes, and he was overjoyed.

With this puppet in charge, he will have the strength to fight even against powerful enemies at the Heavenly God Realm. Even against a late-stage Heavenly God, he can use the Heavenly Fire Puppet to restrain his opponent and create an opportunity for himself to escape.

In addition to this top-tier Heavenly Fire Puppet, the system also provides two mid-grade divine treasures and five low-grade divine treasures as extra rewards, making the resources extremely abundant.

One of the rewards for a mid-tier Divine Rank: a high-tier clone talisman.

The second reward for a mid-grade Divine Rank: five Dao Qi Nirvana Pills.

For Su Mu at his current level, the mid-grade clone talisman is somewhat of a waste. It will only be able to make the most of it and unleash its full power when he breaks through to the Great God Realm.

But this Qi Nirvana Pill is exactly the heaven-defying elixir he needs most right now!

The sole function of this elixir is to aid ordinary divine bodies in their nirvana transformation, forging an unparalleled Dao body.

Su Mu's Imperial Body was far superior to that of an ordinary True God. After countless temperings and being roasted day and night by the Dark Gold Dao Fire, his foundation was already extremely solid.

The Heavenly Pattern Dao Fire Pill he had previously taken caused his dark golden Dao Fire to undergo a retrograde transformation, turning into a more domineering and pure purple-gold Dao Fire, allowing his foundation to reach new heights.

By continuously tempering the Overlord Body with the Purple Gold Dao Fire for a period of time, one can consume the Dao Qi Nirvana Pill and complete the ultimate transformation from a Divine Body to a Dao Body!

The five low-grade divine treasures were also of considerable value, which greatly pleased Su Mu.

Fifty Origin Spirit Awakening Pills, twenty Dao Integration Pills, twenty Heavenly Pattern Dao Fire Pills, a brand-new low-grade Divine Gold Puppet, and three hundred Divine Spring Pills that I have never obtained before!

The Divine Spring Pill is specifically designed to replenish a deity's power and solidify their divine foundation. Previously, Su Mu had plundered Moen and Tula'er's storage vaults, obtaining less than twenty Divine Spring Pills in total. This time, he acquired three hundred pills in one go, completely making up for his shortcomings.

After counting all the rewards, Su Mu pushed open the door of the bedroom and took out a brand-new low-grade divine metal puppet.

"Immediately enter the Black Mist Forbidden Zone, wipe out the remaining Ghost Clan, and exterminate them all."

Su Mu gave the order, and the puppet took off into the air, transforming into a streak of light and rushing into the black mist territory.

Although this puppet is not as high-grade as a mid-grade divine metal puppet, its material is hard and its firepower is pure, making it more than enough to deal with the remaining ghost race of Tianyuan Star.

Previously, he had kept the mid-grade divine gold puppet as his trump card and never used it lightly. Now that a low-grade puppet was cleaning up the battlefield, his trump card could be completely preserved for protection without any loss.

Su Mu leaped into the courtyard of the library and raised his hand to recall the gold that was soaring in the sky.

After awakening, Jinzi became even more handsome and domineering. Its wings were fully spread, with a wingspan of nearly a hundred feet. Its enormous body covered most of the courtyard, and the aura of a divine bird permeated all directions.

"Level 9, early stage, not bad."

Jinzi folded its giant wings and affectionately nuzzled its head against Su Mu's chest. Su Mu reached out and gently stroked its feathers, praising it with a smile.

The gold emitted a clear, low chime, full of pride.

Su Mu then took out the Nirvana Divine Feather left behind by the Fire Phoenix Crimson Feather and handed it to Jin Zi.

This divine feather is comparable to a low-grade divine treasure, but it has limited use for Su Mu now, as he already has mountains of low-grade divine treasures in his possession.

But for Jinzi, who possesses the bloodline of a divine bird, it is an unparalleled treasure. It can use the innate talent of the divine bird to nurture the Nirvana Divine Feathers day and night, allowing the grade and power of the Divine Feathers to continuously rise and evolve.

Upon receiving this precious treasure, Jinzi was overjoyed and took flight once more, soaring freely above the imperial city.

That night, in the bedroom.

Xiao Yunshang looked up at Su Mu and said softly, "I am more than four months pregnant, and the fetus in my womb has fully developed and is fine. Now I can formally forge a true divine body to protect my child's birth into a congenital divine body."

"Okay." Su Mu nodded and reminded him, "Don't forget that bottle of level nine Fire Phoenix essence blood."

"I remember."

Xiao Yunshang took out the bottle of ninth-level fire phoenix essence blood that she had prepared beforehand, and drank it all down under Su Mu's watchful gaze.

She had already consumed a ninth-grade Nirvana Pill, making her physical body extremely robust. She could easily withstand the violent energy of the ninth-grade divine bird's essence blood, thereby transforming her innate Xuanlei Body into an even stronger supreme divine body.

A day and a night passed quietly. Xiao Yunshang remained seated in her room, focusing on refining her essence and blood energy and polishing her physical body and divine foundation.

Su Mu stayed close by, quietly guarding him and protecting him.

After another night of reflection, on the morning of January 5th, Xiao Yunshang slowly opened her eyes, ending her period of secluded cultivation.

She successfully broke through the shackles and forged a true divine body!

Her innate Xuanlei Body was already exceptionally gifted, possessing a powerful physique. Furthermore, with the nourishment of the Ninth Grade Nirvana Pill and the divine tempering of the Ninth Grade Fire Phoenix Blood Essence, the foundation and strength of her divine body far surpassed that of ordinary true gods in the heavens, possessing an incomparably profound foundation.

Even after her realm stabilized, she did not slack off. She continued to absorb the divine power of the divine stone and nurture the fetus in her womb day and night, just to ensure that the child would be born with an innate divine body and have a starting point that surpasses all others in the heavens.

Her next focus in cultivation will be to completely transform the Xuan Fire within her body and condense it into the Divine Fire of the Heavens.

This breakthrough is no challenge for her now. Su Mu has a huge stockpile of Qianling Divine Fire Pills, which will be enough to help her achieve a perfect breakthrough with ease.

After emerging from seclusion, Xiao Yunshang moved to the courtyard to personally adapt to the immense power of her new divine body and to refine the compatibility between her physical body and divine power.

At noon, the imperial city was peaceful and serene, and the world was quiet and tranquil.

Su Mu's mind tightened suddenly. In the darkness, the connection between his mind and that low-grade divine metal puppet sent to exterminate the ghost race was completely severed!

"Something happened?"

Su Mu frowned slightly, his expression serious.

There are only two possibilities when a puppet's will is severed.

Firstly, the puppet mistakenly entered a special sealed area, similar to the Ice Palace of the Barbarian Ancestral God Mountain, which isolated it from all divine senses.

Secondly, the puppet was forcibly destroyed and completely scrapped.

However, the black mist on Tianyuan Star has greatly weakened, the first three Ghost Commanders have all been killed, and the newly born Ghost Commander is weak in cultivation, at most at the early stage of True God.

Although that golden golem was only a low-grade god, it possessed a special Dao fire and an unparalleled hard physical body. Its true combat power was comparable to that of a late-stage true god, making it impossible for the newly born Ghost Commander to destroy it.

"Could we have accidentally wandered into an unknown, forbidden area?"
